SIIEFFLER CASE ON TRIAL
AccnsecL of Assault with Intent to
Commit Great Bodily Injury.
SELF-DEFENSE 13 THE PLEA
Testimony of the tate Tends In Large
Measure t. Bear This Ont
Roy Stevens la to Aak
for a w Trial.
John Sheffler, who on the night of Au
gust 12 last knocked down Jamca Lank
ton In a street fight, the injuries received
by Lankton resulting in his death, was
placed on trial In the dlstrlrt court Satur
day on a chnrge of assault with Intent
to Inflict great bodily injury, unCer the
Indictment returned by the grand Jury.
When court adjourned last evening the
state had presented practically all of Its
testimony.
The defense cmlms that Lankton was
tho aggressor In the fight and that Shelter
acted in self-defense. The testimony of
the state yesterday went to substantiate
the contention of the defense.
In Iris opening statement to the Jury
County Attorney Hess contented himself
with saying that he would present all the
evidence which b, had been able to oh
taln relative to the three-cornered fight
between the defendant, Lankton and the
latter' companion. William Delahoyde, in
which Lankton received a wound by strik
ing hla head against the pavement, which
caused his death the next day. Emmot
Tlnley, counsel for the defense, declared
that the evidence of all the witnesses to
the fight would show that Lankton had
been the aggressor and that the defendant
only knocked him down In self-defense.
Attorneys for Roy W., Stevens, convicted
of an attempted criminal assault on 11-year-old
Christen Chrlstensen, have been
given until Saturday next In which to file
a motion for a new trial. In case a new
trial I denied, it Is said an appeal will be
taken. J. J. Stewart, one of Stevens' coun
sel, said yesterday, "We expect to take an
appeal If we do not obtain a new trial.
If we take this step, we shall try to secure
ond for Stevens, so that he may be re-
ased from Jail."
Stevens la at present under $1,000 bond
n the charge of enticing away 10-year-old
Alma Dohse, on the evening of July 17.
.n this caso he Is alleged to have taken
he child from a wngon In which her father
.iad left her and forced her to accompany
him to Fairmount park. The child suc
ceeded In escaping before being harmed.
The grand Jury, which has been In ses
slon since Tuesday lust, adjourned yester
day over Sunday without making a report.
A partial report. It I stated, may be looked
for about Wednesday.

DES MOINES. Nov. 17. I tSpeclal.1 "Too
many cooks spoil the broth" was exemplified.
In the supreme court room yesterday when
It was disclosed that the long array of Irsral
talent for the appellant In the big $."si, f" n
mining suit from Pottawattamie county,
known as ilia. Dole-Bilrns case, were dis
covered to be too late to make their oral
argument.
The attorneys for Burns, who Is appeal
ing tho case to the supreme court from the
Pottawattamie county district court, are
A. P. Gunnell of Denver. Colo.; Senator
Tom Tatteraon of Denver. ex-Governor
Thomas of Colorndo, D. L. Ross of Coun
cil Bluffs. Congressman Walter I. Smith
of Council Bluffs, Senator C. G. Saunders
of Council Bluffs, and his law partner,
S'uart, of Council Bluffs.
When the case was called today It was
i discovered that the appellant's attorneys
hnd failed to attend to some little techni
cal requirements In the rules of the su
premo court. As a result Doyle's attorneys
made their arguments and the case was
submitted to tho supreme court in that
way without the oral nrgement. The case
has been advertised as being one of the
biggest and most Important In dollars and
cents that hns ever been appealed to the
supreme court.
Brings nck Tils Itnmor.
An Iowa banker, whose name cannot be
disclosed, but who holds a considerable
anWint of paper of tho big packing In
stitutions, hns brought back the report
from Chicago that the prices of live stock
.are to take a tumble and that later this
will bo followed by a fall of the prlco of
dressed meats. This Iowa banker went to
Chicago to get hi money. It Is known (that
the big packing Industries have, borrowed
vast sums of money and country bankers
hold the paper. This Iowa banker wanted
his money back and went to Chicago after
it. He didn't get It, but learned that the
packing house concerns will Immediately
hammer the price of live stock down froVu
60- cents to $1 a hundred. This will stop
live stock coming to market and will give
them the control of the dressed beef market
until such a time ns they can get rid of
the stock of dressed meats that they have
on habd and for which they paid a high
price. When this la done they will have
money with which to pay off their loans.

CHARGES AGAINST LEWELLYN
Former Nebraskan May Lose Federal
Job ia New Mexico.
UNDER FIRE OF INVESTIGATION
Major of Hough Hldera la "aid to Be
Counting; on Friendship of
President to See Him
Safely Through..
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
WASHINGTON, Nov. 17. (Special. Tele
gram.) An old NehrasKan and Rotigh
Rider, Major W H. II. Llewellyn, United
States attorney for New Mexico, is under
fire and in grave danger of losing his place,
because of charges of Incompetency and
discourtesy filed agalnsthim.
Major Llewellyn has been 1'nlted States
attorney for six years, and lias been a
resident of New Mexico since his removal
from Nebraska. There have recently come
before his office some Important land cases
In which the Department of Justice and
the Interior department ore greatly Inter
ested. Major Llewellyn has had a clash
with Special Agents of the two depart
ments and Is not working in harmony with
them, it Is alleged. Then, too, there Is
bitter factionalism In the territory and one
of the factions Is hard after the former
Rough Rider, making all sorts of charges
against him. Hla accusers especially al
lege Incompetency and Incivility.
The White House haa started an Investi
gation, which, so far, does not tend to hurt
Major1 Llewellyn, but the Departments of
Justice and Interior are also carrying on
an Investigation, anii the president, who
has been a warm ami tdmlrlng friend of
Major Llewellyn, Is In 4oep quandary as
to what he should do finer the circum
stances. Llewellyn recognizes the seriousness of
the case, but will not fcdmi. he Is In danger,
believing the "Colonel," us the president
la known to the Rough Mders, will pull
him through. Should tbj worst come to
the worst, there ia a L-.iundary commission
to be appointed between New and Old
Mexico, and Llewellyn, who knows every
foot of the territory. It Is thought, could
have a place on the commission for the
asking. At present the major of tho Rough
Hitlers Is standing pat.
