Trip from Barbadoes.
MAY CHARTER SHIP TO TAMPICO
Rl I.I.KTI.
EL, TASO, Tex., Feb. 22.-Vlrtual post
ponement of the Jack Johnson-Jesa Wlil
ard boxing bout was admitted late today
by Jack Curley, the promoter. It was
believed that Johnson could not arrive
at Juarez, Mexico, on tho border here,
from Havanna l.y way of any Mexican
seapor by March .
HAVANA, Feb. 2J. Oaex Johnson, the
pugilist, accompanied by his wife, secre
tary, sparring partners and a servant,
arrived here early this morning from
Clenfuegoa. He appeared in good condi
tion and declared he never felt better.
Johnson said his only anxiety now wss
to reach Juarex, Mex.. In time for his
match with Jcsa Wltlard on March f. He
was much annoyed at hearing of the
present chaotic condition In Mexico, es
pecially the difficulties which probably
would confront him In going north from
Tumplco.
Johnson declared, however, that he was
e'etermined to push ahead In spite of all
obstacles, and If no regular steamer was
tvallable for the trip he would charter a
teasel to take him to Tampico.
No plans had been made fpr his ap
pearance In Havana., Johnson said, but
he would confer with George M. Bradt,
who holds the Cuban government con
cession for boxing matches In the Ha
vana atadlum, and might give an exhibi
tion bout with San McVey or Jim John
son. ,
The heavyweight champion reached
Cienfuegos on the four-masted scrooner
Henry F. Krager, which he ohartered to
trke him from Barbadoes. The passage,
which waa rough, took ten days. '
Johnson sailed from Barbados, Feb
ruary 10 with his wife and training staff
on the achooner Henry Krager. It was
reported last week that the schooner had
landed the party at Tampico, Mexico.
This seems to have been an error. The
Havana dispatch would Indicate that the
report received at El Paso, Tex., that
Johnson had arrived in Chihuahua City,
Mexico, waa equally incorrect.

Indoor tennis doubles championship to
day, defeating Karl Behr and T. R. Pell

Seventh regiment armory. The result
was somewhat unexpected, aa Behr and
Pell were regarded as th strongest title
contenders.
Touchard, while uncertain at times, out-
volleyed and out-drove both Behr and
Pell, Washburn waa weak on service,
but he made amends by hia fine volley
ing, quick cross court shrts and ability
to pick out openings In the rallies.
Pell endeavored to make up for the
erratic play of his partner. He worked
his back hand splendidly and at half
volleys In rapid exchangee with Touchard
and Washburn kept the big croad ap
plauding. King Smith won the final of the con
solation singles. He beat U. S. Groes

MORE ALLEGATIONS
AGAINST MATTERS
(Continued from Pago One.)
Matters' plan of Investment failed to
bring her satisfactory results she asked
for her money, but was told that under
the agreement the form of demand she
guve Matters for the return of her money
a as not good.
She consulted some of the members of
the church, with the Idea of forcing Mat
ters to return her money, she asserted.
Rev. Mr. Harmon. H. K. Burket. the
undertaker; J. F. Woolery, assistant
principal of Central High school; E. C.

erated on the matter.
Testifying further she declared that
Matters gave her what purported to be
a mortgage In security for her money.
The alleged mortgage waa exhibited In
evidence at the trial and I said to have
been no mortgage at all. Still later In
the negotiations Mrs. Johnson alleged
that Bhe felt dissatlafled with the so
called mortgage and demanded that bet
ter security be given her. Then she got
two certificates of deposit on the Sutton
bank, before it failed.
One Certificate Paid.
"I was afraid of tho bank certificates."
the widow testified, "and I took them
only after long deliberation and because
of hearty assurance that they were tall
right Later one of the certificates for
$1,600 wa paid all right. Mr. Matter gave
me a green document, which he railed a
'coupon mortgage' In place of the other
certificate.
"He sesled It up tn an envelope and told
ma not to open it until the following
January. But I opened It that night and
showed It to Mr. De Bord. a lawver. He
Immediately took It back to Mr. Matter
and made him give up the,acertlflcaU of
deposit Instead."
Siarned Paper for Mattera.
When Mrs. Johnson originally accepted
the two Sutton bank certificates, she tes
tified. Matter had her sign a paper, re
leasing him from all further liability for
the money she had given him to Invest,
she agreeing to hold the bank Instead of
him. Aa the deal turned out, one of the
certificates was never paid, she asserted.
I'adern-oe rmse-Esamlaatloa.
At the afternoon session of the trial
Mrs. Johnson gave further details of her
story and underwent cross-examination
by tho defense without changing her
story.
President Melchlor L. Luebben of the
defunct First National bank of Sutton
was the only other witness during the
nay. in the course of his lengthy review
cf his bank' exteuded dealing with
Matter during several veara he mn.
tloned Mr. Johnson, the sensational wit
ness of the morning session.
Luebben testified that ha had Issued w
certificates of deposit tn Mr. Johnson's
name, at Matter' request and that the
bank did not at that time and had never
since then, receive a slnale dollar from
Mrs. Johnson or from Matters for the two
certificate. Th bank paid one of them,
however, Luebben testified, charging th
amount to Mattera' account.
James Richardson of Omaha? formerly
a member of the Board of EJucatlon and
an acquaintance of Matters, was men.
tloned by Luebben a one of the numer
ous person to whom unauthorised cer
tificate of deposit on the Sutton bank
had been made payable. Testifying In
that regard Luebben said:
Two Paid by Bank.
"Matter told me that one of the cer
tificate for payable to Richardson,
and one for 11,800. payable to Mrs. John
son, had not been negotiated bv him ni
were In hie vault. However, In the fall
or lis, shortly before th bank closed,
both the certificate came In from Inno
cent third parties and the bank had to
pay them.
"I Immediately phoned Matter at
Omaha and told him that although he
had solemnly sworn that the certificates
were not out. they, had been floated and
presented for payment.

" 'My God!' Mattera exclaimed over the
phone, 'have those come In?
"I told htm that he must make thorn
good, and that he must send cash at
once, a hi account with our bank would
not stand such amounts. He promised to
do so."
The Richardson certificate is part of
the bast of th nineteenth count of the
Indictment against Matters. Rich ardson

District Attorney Howell says that the
government may reat It case by Wednes

Delayed Beading; Money.
Luebben' further testimony Included
hi plan for issuing unauthorised cer
tificate of deposit and having Matters
turn them into cash, with the Idea of
securing money te bolster up the totter
ing bank. Th bank president testified
that the plan was carried out. so far as
tho Issuance of the certificates was con
cerned, but he testified that Matters
either did ao send cash for the oertlfi
catea. or else did so some time after th
certl'tcates were Issued.

for them until February. IMS, when, he

them partly, and the check waa protested.

Another feature of Luebben' s testimony
waa to the effect that Mattera had de
sired to exchange his personal checks on
an Omaha bank for cashier' checks on
the Sutton bank, and to have the latter
bank return tho checks to the Omaha
bank by a clrrultoua route. In order that
Matter might have the use of the Sutton
bank money for aeveral day before his:
own check came back to him for pay
ment. Luebben declared that in less than
one year 11 of Matters' check had been
so handled.
Still another one of Matters' alleged
financial schemes, acrordlng to Lueb
ben's testimony, Included having thou
ardi of dollars worth of George B. Parr'
check charged to Matter' account In
the Sutton bank. Luebben also stated on
the stand that hta bank Issued unauthor
ised certificates of deposit to the amount
of $34,000 In June, IRIS, at Matters' request,
but received nothing for them at the time.
Later it got 122,000,400 In note and money
for the 35,i00 worth of certificates and
had to Isnue $36,000 more tn unauthorised
certificates through Matters, to replace
older ones that were falling due and could
not be paid.
Champ Clark Says
George Washington
is Greatest of Race
WASHINGTON. Feb. 21 Speaker
Champ Clark, addressing the congrega
tion of a Washington church yesterday,
declared that George Washington waa
"the foremost uninspired mortal tn the
entire history of tho human race.
"Many great men have lived and
wrought In this glorious world," be said,
"but In completeness of character and in
the far reaching Important snd bene
flclcnt results of hi laborious achieve
merits, Washington overtop them all.")
Washington's greatest service, the
speaker thought, wss as presldnfl of the
constitutional convention where His com
manding Influence made formation of the
republic possible.
'Somebody may object," he said, "that
Washington occasionally drank a mint
Julep, bet on a horse race, danced
tho Virginia reel and at Monmouth swore
because General Charles Lee spoiled the
plan of battle by retreating when or
dered to charge. But we must Judge man
by manner and customs In which they
lived and not by those of our times. In
Washington's day nearly all men drank
mint Juleps, occasionally danced, bet and
swore without any consciousness of Bin.
Washington was thoroughly human and
no doubt sometimes sinned. I am glad
he possessed the ordinary passion of
man and that he did sometimes sin, for
It show he belonged to the breed that
he did, which a great honor to th rest
of ua,"

(From a Staff Correspondent.
LINCOLN, Feb. 22 (Speclal.)-It Is
likely that the squabble of last week over
the apportionment of approprlntiona
called for by Chairman Taylor of the
university committee will be continued
again this week. It lelng understood
that Mr. Taylor will Insist on a certain
program which will be resisted by the
other membera of the committee.
Representative Relanor today offered a
motion to reconsider the action of the
house Thursday when It refused to In-
sttruct the committee. The' motion waa
not voted upon, but was laid over to give
the members of the onunlttec one more
opportunity to get together and agree on
Borne program. If they can agree the
motion will probably not be klllod, but
If the committee Bill! agrees to disagree
It is probable the matter will be fought
out on the floor and In the event of tho
defeat of Mr. Taylor a second time he
will probably resign from the committee.
Taylor's Program.
Th program whloit Mr. Taylor has In
mind Is aa follows:
X motion to reconsider th action of
the house last Friday when It refused to
Instruct his committee demanding front
the regents an itlmlaed statement show

A motion Instructing th Taylor commit
tee to Itlnilse and segrlgate appropriations

culture and the school of agriculture at
Curtis and also for escn of the four nor

A proposal to make this motion a spe
cial order of bslness for Tuesday
morning.
in the meantime the special committee
to have a meeting and determine whether
It would adopt the plan of Itlmlsed segri
gste appropriation or not.
In case tho committee should adopt
Taylors Idea Instructing the oommlttee to
be dropped.
In rase the special committee and house
refuses to call for specific appropriations,
Mr. Taylor expected to prnaont his writ
ten resignation and ask Instructions what
to do with the bill In hi possession as
chairman.
Effort for Agreemeat.
During the forenoon, Chairman Norton
of the finance committee .made efforts to
secure an agreement among the members
of the special committee on university
and normal schools, baaed principally on
Taylor's idea of ttemlxing and segregat
ing appropriations. I'p to the time the
house convened tn the afternoon he had
failed In this object During the noon
hour Mr. Norton submitted to th meb
bcrs of the committee the following pro
posed agreement:
We, the members of the committee on

following plana In furthering ths work

Quit Meat When
Kidneys Bother
Take a glaas of Halts before Break
fast if your Hack hurts or Iliad
rirr Is troubling you,
No man or woman who eat meat regu
larly can mak a mistake by flushing ths
kidneys occasionally, says a well-known
authority. Meat forms uric acid which
excites the kidneys, they become over
worked front th strain, get sluggish and
fall to filter the waste and poisons from
the blood, then we get sick. Nearly all
rheumatism, headaches, liver trouble,
nervousness, dlxxiness, sleeplessness and
urinary disorders come from sluggish
kidneys.
The moment you feel a dull ache tn the
kidneys or your back hurts or if the
ur'ne Is cloudy, offensive, lull of sediment,
Irregular of passage or attended by a
sensation of scalding, stop eating meat
and get about four ounces of Jad Salts
from any pharmacy; take a tablespoonful
in a glass of water before breakfast and
In a few days your kidneys will act fine.
This famoua aalts Is made from th acid
of grapes and lemon Juice, combined with
lithla, and has been used for generations
to flush and stimulate the kidneys, also
to neut rails the aclda la urine so It no
