DISCREPANCY AS TO DATE OF MURDER
X la talc ,af Witness Tim of
U earing; Ikota Woald Discredit"
Alibi If Correction Had
Beea Admitted. '
WALLACE Idaho, Feb. t The sharp
est fight that has yet occurred In the trial
of Steve Adams, for the murder of Fred
Tyler, ended today In a notable victory
for the 'defense when" Judge Wood an
nounced that he would overrule the peti
tion of -the state for permission , to recall
Mrs.. Arthur Phillips and then reopen the
case for prosecution. The testimony to be
given . by ' Mrs. Philips was .regarded as
vital for the cue of the state.'
'- It has been discovered that the date on
which Mrs. Phillips heard the shots that
killed Tyler waa Sunday, August ' 7, . not
Wednesday. August 10, as assumed all
along by the state. ' ,
The defense, it Is conceded, has been
able to establish a strong alibi for Adams
on Wednesday, August 10, but has left un
guarded the morning of August 7, on which
date Mrs. Phillips now claims the shoot
ing occurred. ; - .
The state's -new theory Is that It would
have been easy for Adams after the shoot
ing early in the morning , to travel, to
Mason's cabin In time to take part In the
birthday dinner at which his presence Is
so well attested. All this new evidenoe the
defense is now able to exclude.
While it is believed here that this start
ling change In the aspect of the trial
renders Adams' conviction -of the murder
of Tyler difficult. It is not believed he has
any chance of regaining his liberty at the
present time. He la wanted by the state
as one of Its most Important witnesses In
the aproachlng trial of . Moyer.j Haywood
and ' Pettlbone, officers of . the Western
Federation of Miners for the assassination
of Former Governor Bteunenberg.
At least three courses are open to the
state It can hold Adams for. trial for the
murder of Boule, which crime he confessed
to Detective McPartland; can hold hlra for
complicity in the Bteunenberg murder,
also mentioned In his confession, or may
send him to Colorado to be tried for tak
ing part In Blowing up the depot at Inde
pendence, where several non-union miners
were killed.
The principal witnesses for the state In
rebuttal today were VA B. Chandler and
Miss Mamie Bherr of Spokane, who tes
tified to having met Jack Slmpklns In the
Bt. Joe country August 24. 1904. Chandlor

Brothers. -
. CULPEPPER, . Va., March L Common
wealth's Attorney J. A. C. KeKh today be
gan the presentation of his evidence in re
buttal In his attempt to shatter tne plea
of Justification advanced by the defense
for James A. and Philip Btrother, on trial
here for the murder of William Bywaters,
their brother-in-law.
,The commonwealth's attorney has ad
vised the court that the state expects to
complete its rebuttal in one day.
Although the names of the witnesses for1
the rebuttal have, not been announced, ac
cording to Captain Mlcajah Wood, asso
ciated In the prosecution, they will be
called mainly to show that when Bywaters
married Viola Btrother he made full repar
ation for the wrong he is alleged by the
defense to have dona her and that the
shooting was therefore not Justified.
Dr. Charles H. Clark of St. Elizabeth's
government asylum for the insane in
Washington was the first witness called
today. He testified he had had fourteen
years' experience in the practice of medi
cine, chiefly confined to cases of mental
disorder.
Mr. Moore of the defense submitted a
lengthy hypothetical question,, reciting all
the facts of the pending case as ciaimeu
by the defense and concluding by asking
the witness how he would characterise the
act of homicide committed under such cir
cumstances. '
Before witness could reply Mr. Keith ob
jected, on the ground that the quesUon
did not recite all the facts and especially
that the defendants were armed and' had
Intended to do, under certain conditions,
that which they did do.
The Jury was withdrawn In order that
the court mUfht hear arguments on the
admissibility of the question. The effort of
the defense to establish emotional lnsanuy
as a plea evidently did not surprise the
prosecution. '

COCRTXEY WINS FROM WILLIAMS
Topeka Man Starts Oat Well, bat Is
Weak at Finish.
Ed Courtney of Omaha was given the
decision by Referee Loch over Ed
Williams of Topeka In a ten-round go at
Osthott's hall Friday night before; a crowd
of 4U1 men. The bout was nip and tuck
all the way through, with first one having
the better of It and then the other, but
Courtney finished the stronger and waa
given the decision.
There was some wrangling at the outset
because Courtney was Ave pounds over
weight end weighed seven pounds more
than Williams,' but Williams finally con
sented to go on. He had few backers be
fore the opening, ss he looked scared, but
after the first round he waa the favorite.
He hnd a haymaker punch and was a
decided outftghter, while Courtney was bent
at Infighting. The fourth round was all
Williams', who started a fire on Court
ney's nose. In the fifth Courtney rallied
and had ail the better of it. In the seventh
Courtney knocked Williams down, but the
Topeka lad was up at the count of three.
Williams was down again In the eighth. In
the tenth ' Williams . came up strong and
worked hard for a dec-talon, but he wore
himself out and was only able to hang
on at the flntah, so Referee Loch gave
Courtney the decision.
, The preliminary was a lively six-round
bout between Joe Oalhrlght and Mickey.
No decision was given In this.
McCartney of Council Bluffs and Ouy
Buckles of Omaha will box fifteen rounds
at the same place next Friday night.

JACK HASKELL IN THE WESTERN
Crack I'saplra Bays He Is a O'Nell's
Staff.
Jack Haskell, one of the crack umpires
of the country, who hails from Omaha and
was seen In Kansas CJty last week, where
he Is spending the winter. He told an
Omaha man he was to umpire In the West
ern league this year and at the same time
was commissioned by several eastern teams
to watch for eligible players for the big
league teams. The experience this league
bad with umpires last year should be a
warning to the president .that he) could
rest in better peace If he looked around
and found competent umpires like Il&skulL
Reports still ' continue ' to come from all
sections of the state concerning the heavy
flight of ducks. Dr. Luhens of Tekamah,
while In Omaha this week said he saw over
4A flocks along the riven while enroute to
Omaha and In a short drive around Teka
mah. The warm weather opened up enough
sloughs and streams to give the ducks
plenty of resting places and they are stop
ping off for a visit on their trip north.
When Wee Willie Keeler was a schoolboy
he had the following handed to him by a
loving teacher who bore the same name:
"I am sorry to acknowledge that you are
a namesake of mine, but I am thankful
that you are not a relative. You ought to
be ashamed of yourself to say that a
rhinoceros, an animal the hide of which
cannot be pierced by a bullet, is noted for
I Its fine feathers."
About M per cent of otherwise normal
people use the right hand In preference to
the left; 6 per oent are left-handed, and It
Is a curious fact that one-third of ths per
cent are ambidextrous. If this proportion
applied to base ball southpaw pitchers and
batters it would cut no Ice whatever, says
the Portland (Ore.) Journal.
As It is, fully a third of the players In
the major lesgues are left-handed, or at
least pitch and bat left-handed, while only
a few throw with the south paw. This
extraordinary percentage la doubtless due
to the fact that magnates and managers
sedulously cultivate southpaw pitchers and
batsmen, particularly the latter, under tha
belief that the left-handed pitcher has
something on left-handed batters, while
such batsmen have an advantage over
right-handed batsmen In a quicker start to
first base and a fraction ot a second in
close plays at the bag.
The latter fact accounts tor the steady
Increase of natural left-handed batsmen
and of righthanders who change to the
other hand. This advantage of time on
close plays at first base also helps many
lefthanders to high position In the batting
averages, but for real, solid slugging w
must look to the normal right-handed bats
