BLUFF,
TURNER TELLS HIS STORY
Iniisti Chilton Wa the Aggressor in Fight
Which Endtd in Death.
REVOLVER ACCIDENTALLY DISCHARGED
Sight Seaaloa of toart Held and
Case Is Araaed and Submitted
to the Jary at Mne
O'clock.
Robert Turner, the negro charged with
the murder of Qeorge Chllson, president of
the Boilermakers' union of Omaha, and
whose trial Is now occupying the attention
of Judge Green and a Jury In the district
court, testified In his own behalf yester
day, his story of the trouble lending up
to Ihe shooting being the feature of yes
terday's proceedings.
His testimony was substantially as fol
lows! He and Andy Hill, the negro In
dicted with him, occupied scats in front
of Chllson and his companions. Previous
to the trouble that ensued he had not
seen, neither did he nor Hill know Chllson,
and his companions. The first he saw of
Chllson was when the latter left, his sent
and came Into the seat occupied by himself ',
and Hill and struck nt Hill. Hill not be- j
Ins anxious to get Into a fuss, succeeded
In escaping from the grasp of Chllson and
the latter then turned his attention to
Turner. Chllson, while applying a vile
epithet to Turner, struck him several
blows In the face. Turner tried to avoid
the man and started to climb over the
back of the seat in front of him when
Chllson seiied him by the thront and
forced him back towards the steps at the
same time striking him in the face. Just
as the car came to a stop Chllson forced
Turner off the step' and some one took
his revolver from hl pocket, but who did
th.ls Turner said he did not know. Turner,
as he reached the ground,, asked for his
revolver and Hill said, he had It and
handed It back to him.
The car. which' had stopped for the rail
road crossing, started forward and Turner
Jumped back on. As he dll so, Chllson
advanced .towards him' and with an oath
ordered him to keep off the car.; Turner
replied that he Intended to ride home and
when Chllson kept advancing at him and
attempted to strike him again, he Btruok
at Chllson with 1US revolver, which he was
holding In his left hand. The revolver ex
ploded and Chllson was shot accidentally,
as it happened. '
In his direct examination and on cross
examination, Turner denletl strongly any
Intention to shoot Chllson. A number of
wltneeses, among them several well-known
business men of the city, were placed on
the stand by the defense to show the good
character of the defendant.
Judge Green held -a .night session and
the case was given to the Jury at t o'clock.
Falls from Top of Car.
James Qreen, claiming to hall from Rush
vllle,. 111., fell off the top of a car of a
passenger train at the Milwaukee depot
last evening and was knocked unconscious
for an hour or so. Green climbed on the
top of the car with the Idea of stealing a
ride out of the city, but the moment the
train started he lost his hold and fell on
the track, narrowly missing going under
the wheels. He was somewhat under the
influence of llauor. He was taken, to po
lice headquarters In an unconscious con
dition, where he was attended by City
Physician Tinley, and where later he came
to very little the worse for his experience.

Vhai Sulphur Does
For the Human Body In Health and
Disease.
The mention of sulphur will recall to
many of ub the early days when our
mothers and grandmothers gave us our
daiiy dose of sulphur and nuUtnes ever
spring and tall.
It was the universal spring and fall
"blood puriiler," voi.io anu cure-all, and
mlud you, this old-iauhluned lemeay was
not without merit.
The iuea wua good, but the remtdy was
crude and unpaiutaule,.und a largo quan
tity had to be taken to gei any ettect.
Nowadays we get all the beneiiclal effects
of aulphur In a paUiaole, coi.ccnira.aJ
form, so that a single grain la lar more
effective than a tabieapoonf ul of the crude
sulphur.
In recent y ems, research and experiment
have proven that the bett sulphur fur me
dicinal use is that obtained irom Calcium
IC'alclum Sulphide) and sold iu drug s.ores
under the name of buart's Calcium Wat
ers. They are small chocolate coaled pel
lets and contain the active medicinal pr.n
clple of sulphur In a highly concentrated,
effective form.
Few people are aware of the value of thlj
form of sulphur In restyling and ma. n turn
ing bodly vigor ami lieaiin: sulpiiur acts
directly on tne liver, and cxcretoiy organs
and purities and enriches tbi ioud by the
prompt elimination of was.e ma.le.lal.
Our grandmothers knew this when ihey
dosed us with sulphur and in.-laaseg every
spring nnd fall, but the ciu.uiy and Im
purity of ordinary flowers o. sulphur were
often worse than the disease, and cannjt
ovmpare with the modern concentrated
preparation of sulphur of which Stuart n
Calcium Wafers' is undoubtedly the best
and most widely used.
They are the natural antidote for liver
and kidney troubles and cure constipation
and purify the blood In a way that olUn
aurpiltes patient and physician alike.
Dr. R. M. WHklr.s while experimenting
with sulphur remedies soon found that the
sulphur from Calcium was superior to any
other form. Ha says: ."For liver, kidney
and blood troubles,; especially whea re
sulting from constipation or malaria, I
have been surprised at the results cbiulnei
from Stuart's Calcium Wafers. In- p atents
suffering from bolls and plmplaJ and even
deep-seuWd carbuncles,. 1 have" reptaieifly
en them dry up and dltappear in four or
Uve days, leaving th sK.n clrar and
smooth. Although Stuart's Calcium Waf
ers Is a proprietary ar.lcle, and V3l by
druggists, and for that reuaon taboced by
many phyalclans, yot I know of nothing aa
taie and rellab e tor constipation, liver uni
kidney troublea and especially In all forms
Of skin dlreuses as thU remedy."
At any rate people who are tired of ptl s,
cathurtlcs and so-called blooj "puillers,"
will rind Stuart's Calcium Wafers, a far
safer, mora palaUbla and effective preparation.

OBJECT TP FEATURES OF CO-OPERATIVE
Governor foramina Betna; Irarrft for
Attorney General In the Cabinet
of President Roosevelt If
Wilson Retires.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES M01NE9, Nov. 12.-(Spe.inl.) Pres
ident Jay A. King of the Iowa Grain Deal
ers' association has Issued a formal state
ment In reply to the criticisms which have
been current In regard to the association
and Us business methods and denying many
of the statementa which called forth the
meeting of the co-operative elevator man
agers at Rockwell and the formation of a
state association of co-operatives. Presi
dent King denies that the association has
ever Issued a price card or sanctioned the
making of a card of prices for all mem
bers and says that the association per
mits members to make their own prices.
He denies that the association is opposed
to co-sjperatlve business as such. But it
Is opposed to the system which Is In vogue
In some of the co-operative concerns of
the state and believes they are ruinous to
all trade. He especially mentions that
some of the co-operative elevators are run
on the plan of all expenses being paid by
an assessment on the members and the
grain Is sold without profit, and this gives
an erroneous Idea of grain prices. The as
sociation also opposes the contracts In
many of the elevator companies under
which a member may sell to a buyer out
side of the association, but must return
a profit to the co-operntlve company on all
such sales, thus making the company and
not the man the. beneficiary of the higher
prices paid by outsiders. He insists that
there are co-operative elevator companies
that are members of the State Grain Deal
ers' association and working In harmony
with the other grain dealers.
The association formed at Rockwell will
take up the fight, which promises to be
carried into the next legislature.
Iowa May Irate Cummins.
Anent the gossip In the east with regard
to the possible ritlrement of either secre
tary Shaw or Secretary Wilson from the
Roosevelt cabinet gossip has been started
here with reference o the possibility of
Roosevelt Inviting Governor A. B. Cum
mins Into his cabinet as attorney general.
The Iowa governor Is regarded as one of
the ablest lawyers of the country and he
is a man of the kind liked by President
Roosevelt. At the same . time ho hae a
record of opposition to the merger bills
which were put Into the Iowa legislature at
the Instance of the Northern Securities
company, and he brought upon himself
the wrath of large corporation Interests
by vetoing an Important bill which was
passed to allow the transfer o:' the merger
fight from Minnesota to Iowa. In view of
the probable attitude of the administration
on too trust and merger questions the
friends of Governor Cummins may urge
him as the proper person' for attorney
general to succeed Moody.
Railroad Scheme - Promoted.
The latest railroad promotion scheme In
Iowa la that of the Midland Air Line and
Navigation company of Lamoni, la., capi
talized nominally at. $1,000, 000, for the pur
pose pf building a railroad through a num
ber of states connecting ' Des Moines with
Port Arthur Tex., and Including a line of
steamships.. Dr. J. W. Crofford of Lamoni
Is president and chief promoter, and he
claims that the' survey work Wlll.be com
menced soon. - '
' Private Banker Indicted.
The Decatur county grand Jtyy has In
dicted Suel F. Shaw, late cashier of the
Pleaaanton bank, a private Institution, ac
cusing him of fraudulent banking. The
bank went to pieces a short time ago and
it was found to be In very bad condition. .
The private bank of E. H. Skinner, at
Birmingham, Van Buren county, closed its
doors this week. It is reported that his
losses commenced with a railroad venture
in that part of the state In which he in
vested large' sums arid never fully recov
ered. Wade Is Not Satisfied.
In a public statement made to his friends
Congressman Wade of the Second district
makes accusations against the republicans
of unfair means in encompassing his de
feat, lie announces that he will not accept
defeat, on the . returns as Indicated. He
states that in some places votes were
thrown out 'that were Intended to be cast
for him and the trouble was due to the
retention of the circle nt the head of the
ballot. He will demand a recount of the
votes cast In the district. As the plurality
against him is very small the contest may
be close. '
FIXD DEAD MAS SEAR . MODAI.B
I nldentineal Strauirer Is Thought to
Have Coniinlttteil Sulfide.
MODALE, la., Nov. li-(Speclal.) Yes
terday forenoon the body of an unldentllled
man was found by Bert Hasklns lying be
side the Chicago & Northwestern track a
quarter of a- mile north of Modale. The
man was about 65. years old, weighed 135
pounds and was Ave feet six Inches In
height. The body was tf till warm when

ner, held an Inquest,' impaneling the fol
lowing Jury: F. W. McQueen, George W.
Mldcleton and E. M. Veale.
At the time of discovery no valuables
were to be found upon the body. A bottle
containing a few drops of carbolic acid
found In one pocket of the deceased estab
llshea the conclusion that he met his death
by suicide. The bottle held two ounces and
to it was attached the label of Olsen &
Phillips, 1202 Fourth street, Bloux City. A
card in another pocket gave the name of
J. J. Holmes, Hartlngton, Neb. On his
shirt were the initials, "F. V." A leather
watch chain was attached to the vest of
the dead man, but this had been cut by a
knife.
The dead man was evidently a laborer
and had committed suicide. It is also sup
posed that he had been robbed after death.

BALTIMORE. Nov. 12.-Though the
counting of the ballots In Baltimore haa
been completed, the board of election su
pervisors are still engaged In tabulating
the vote and will not finish thin work until
late today, or perhaps Monday. The count
In the twenty-three counties haa been com.
pleted except in two, but it Is expected
these will be sent In today. In one of these
there is a charge of fraud In on. precinct
and a difference of opinion as to whether
the ballots In that county should be counted

The ' Indications still point with reeming
certainty to the election of seven democrats
and one republican elector, but even this
result will probably not be officially con
firmed until the state board of oanvassers
meet and examine the work of the county
boards.
