SHARP CROSS-FIRE AT LISBON

Plaa la to Tall Parliament In Their

Setnbal Is In a

LISBON, Feb. 22. The greatest precau
tions are being observed in Lisbon to insure
the maintenance of order. It is evident
that the government fears an outbreak of
some kind, but up to the present time no
disturbances have been reported. The
soldiers are being kept in their barracks.
The duke of Oporto, accompanied by a
strong escort, makes frequent Inspections
of the various garrison posts. All the
publio buildings, including the Bank of
Portugal, are occupied by detachments of
the municipal guards. The commerce of
Lisbon reflects the secret uneasiness of the
peopl and Is quite lifeless.
El Secuiu tody says that King Manuel,
Premier Ferrelra, the civil governor of
Lisbon, and General Lopes, commander of
the municipal garrison, had a long con
ference last night regarding the situation.
This paper expresses the opinion, that
everything indicates that the government
la in fear of armed revolutionary out
breaks. The political situation In which the gov

INNOCENT MAN NEAR DEATI
Principal Witness Against Herman
Billik Kecants.
SAYS HE WAS FORCED TO TESTIFY
Declares Aaalatant State's A t former
After Repeated Threats, Framed
Story to Tell on the
Stand.
CHICAGO. Keb. 22. Eighteen-year-old
Jerry M. Vrsal, whose testimony more than
any other person served to convict the
Bohemian fortune teller, Herman Bllllk of
the murder or six members of the Vnal
family, has, it is announced today, re
canted, and In an affidavit declares that
theMestlmony was simple perjury. Bllllk
is under, sentence to be hanged March 20.
The supreme courf Thursday affirmed the
judgment destroying the man's last chance
unless Governor Deneen shall Issue a par
don. Not only does the Vral boy Impugn
his own evidence, but ho declarea. two ot
his relatives also lied.
In the affidavit the boy states that all the
vital part of the testimony he gave against
Bllllk at the trial was perjury that was
taught him by a high polios official and
an assistant state's attorney. He specifically
names the men whom he accuses. '
In the affidavit Vrsal, who la now a
student In Valparaiso, Ind., asserts that
he told the story because a police official
threatened him with a charge of murder
unless ho did as the police wished him to
do. The credit for polishing oft the flctl
tlous narrative he gives to an assistant
state's attorney with whom, he says, he
was closeted forty times the conferences
being from one to four hours in duration
He further asserts that the inspector of
police summoned him at least fifty times
and that theso conferences usually lasted
two hours.
Tho confession was obtained through the
instrumentality of Rev. P. J. O'Callaghan,
head of the Paullst fathers In this city and
pastor of St. Mary's Catholic church, work
ing in Billlk's behalf for several months.
Explanation of Father O'Callaghan
Father O'Callaghan, In explaining his Con
nection with the case, says:
'Tho beginning of my interest dates from
last spring. In one of my frequent visits
to the county Jail I met Sister Rose, who
asked me to interest myself In a prisoner
named Billik. She said he was here on
the charge of murder, but she knew he
Was an Innocent man. I said I had so
many calls upon my .time and sympathy
that I did not feel I could do anything for
the man. At any rate, I said, he was a
fortune teller and charlatan. She an
awered: 'But he should not hang for being
such.'
'I told her I thought the Judge and Jury
would do him Justice. To my astonish
ment, he was convicted, and I felt that I
had neglected the cause of an Innocent
man. Behind all the accidentals of this
case were the prayers of a devoted nun
who first assured me of Billlk's Innocence,
and the prayers of the sisters who are
called the Poor Clares."
Sister Rose of Columbus hospital, an In
stitution of tho Italian order of the Mis
sionary Sisters of the Sacred Heart, Is the
nun referred to. It was she who converted
the enr barn bandit, Qustav Marx, who
was executed with Niedermeyer and Van
Dyne, the only one of the celebrated trio
that died a Christian.
NOBLEST MAN OF ALL
(Continued from First Page.)
theater. Senator Burkett's theme was
The Protest ot Americanism Against
Government Ownership of Railways."
, Government ownership, he declared,
would be a speac thrust to the very heart
of our body politics and would mean revo
lution not only political put commercially,
as well as paternalism In politics and
socialism in commerce.
Senator E. J. Burkett was accorded an
enthusiastic reception at the conclusion of
his address. - The trustees, faculty and
student body of the university rose enmasvo
when the senator from Nebraska concluded
his peroration and gave him rousing
cheers. Mr. Justice Harlan of the supreme
court congratulated the senator on his
conclusions and said that it would be both
impolitic and ill-advised on the part of the
government to own railroads. The senator
made no reference to his notes throughout
the discourse, which occupied an hour and
a quarter.
The senator said in part:
The subject that I have chosen Is "The
Protest of Americanism Against Govern
ment Ownership of Railroads." Within the
noxt dozen years, in my opinion, the people
of IhU country are going to determine
whether the ideas that have directed our
course hitherto ir. this particular are to
he nernetuated or whether, following the
example of effete monarchies, we shall
pursue a plan Impracticably of execution,
un-American in its Inception and socialistic
In its accomplishment.
There are three considerations that call
for attention three phases of each ques
tion that must be determined the consti
tutional phase, the financial phase and the
political phase. Is It constitutional? Is it
economic? Is It politic? The question then
becomes:
First, Is it possible constitutionally,
economically, politically?
Second, la lt advisable constitutionally,
economically, politically?
The really serious question that confronts
us is that of advisability. Granting as I
do that the first question of possibility can
be answered affirmatively, I am not will
ing to admit the latter. In my opinion,
government ownership of railroads Is not
advisable from any of the three stand
points that I have mentioned. It Is not ad
visable constitutionally, economically or
politically.
Granting that it would be possible to
amend the constitution, I deny that it
would be advisable;' or, granting that the
constitution would not need amending, I
am not willing that lt Bhould be stretched.
Depends I'non Finances.
I fear that upon this question of govern
ment ownership more votes may be deter
mined by the financial effect or the fancUd
financial effect, on the present generation,
than by the sociological and political effect
upon our grandchildren, i'ocketbooks of
todav may be stronger considerations than
the liberties of tomorrow. But in my judg
ment both are arrayed against government
ownership of railroads, lt will be ruinous
In our day and disastrous tomorrow
Now, of course, I know' that someone
wants to answer that the business will pay
Us own way. How do you know? It may
some years, but not every year It may not
any year. The United States has never
made any money out of anything so far
how do you know lt would out of railroads?
Government ownership of railroads has
paid in some countries, some years; In sums
countries no years, but in no country every
year. Private ownership has paid at times
in this country; at other tlinos it has not
paid.
Harden of Hed Tape.
Yet. notwithstanding, today there Is a
pending proportion, more or Its certain
and responsible, to run the postal system
at half what lt costs the government.
There la no department of the government
today that would not be run with 26 per
cent less clerks and 50 per cent less salary
under private control. Tied up with red
tape and sewed up with civil service, the
government service is neither economical
nor exceedingly practical.
There is another Important financial rea
son to that portion of the country that I
live in. I live out there in a slate with
more square miles than all New Engiand.
We raise enough pork and beef and wheat
and corn to feed all of New Kugland. We
have a better country than New Kngland.
We have more sunshine and more pure air
than all NewJCngland. But with all tills
to our credit, out In Nebraska we have
only two members of the United States
senate and six congressmen, while New
Kngland has twelve senators and twenty
right members in the bouse of representa
tives. I want more railroads In Nebraska I
want what la there double tracked T want
more engines and more cars, and for my
pert I would rather trust to private capital
putting railroads there where they are
needed than to the exigencies of political
leg-rolling, handicapped by the discrepancy
of votes that confronts us. Last year there
were built In Nebraska 1R3 miles of new
railroad, while in four states of New F.ng-
lanrt there was not a mile hullt, and In all
New Kngland thnr wen. hullt onlv fortv-
slx miles. Nebraska Increased Its railroad
mileage In 1WH 2.67 per cent, while New
Kngland Increased Its .69 per cent. Does
"ne raminar witn legislative processes
believe the proportion would havs been that
If the forty votes of New Kngland and the
eight from Nebraska had been determining
It in a log-rolling scramble on the floors of
congress ?
Let the government control and provide
in general the objects that must be ac
complished, but trust the private owner to
numimiraiiy worn out the details, liair
the laws under private control will bring
about the end we all seek as would pro
duce the same result under government
ownership. Discriminations are not un

A Uoautlful
Sot of Tooth
The most beautiful face that was ever
created can. be spoiled by poor tert'.i.
Next to the eyes, the teeth are the most
prominent features of the face. Pome
times the teeth alone are In the one thlm?
about the face that makes it at tract! vt.
The discovery of our METHOD of restor
ing missing teeth without the aid of pertlnl.
platen or ordinary bridge work makes it
possible for everybody to bars beautiful
teeth. Tbcre Is no similarity between our
TEETH and that of the average set of
so-called "false teeth." Each one of the
teeth Is set In Its own socket and carrier
its own strain. They are. In effect, teeth,
and not shells which are tacked to 11
frame work. All that we require to put
these teeth In the mouth Is that the pa
tient shall have two or more of nature's
teeth loft In cither Jaw. We don't care
whether they are sound teeth or loose. If
they are loose we will tighten them, giv
ing you a beautiful set of teeth, so per
fect and natural looking as to dccleve
the most critical observer. ,
This method has revolutionized the sci
ence of DENTISTRY and Is the greatest
achievement In that profession of modern
times. We operate under patent granted
by the United States Government and by
five of the foreign governments, so, whlln
there sre imitators, be warned In time
and be sure to get Into tho right offices.
Please read the following letter:
Dr. Murphy Dsr Sir:
I am nerrectiy satisfied wltn tne teeth
you replaced for me by your improved
method. You may use this letter as you
wisn.
Tours respectfully.
(Signed) J. R. Thompson.
There Is no pain no surgery no boring
or cutting Into the gums connected with
tho Method. It calls for the very highest
class operators to be found, so you may be
sure of being In first class hands. It costs
no more) than any high grade dentist would
ask for the ordinary bridge work and It
will not tako very much of your time to
have the work completed. People come to
us from all parts of the country nnd
Canada to have it done, after reading our
booklet entitled. "DENTISTRY." Write for
it. It Is sent free. Thoo who are near
enough to our offices to call, will kindly di
so and we will examine their teeth free of
any charges or obligations. We ore ready
and anxious to furnish you with A BEAU
TIFUL SET OF TEETH. They will not
