WASHINGTON, June 4-Senator Iong

Hopkins of Illinois has held sereral con- j

In the opinion of Senator Long, the prep

,jiat tn(, committee on resolutions will not
regard with disfavor as being an attempt
to control their action In advance, the
drafting of a platform which will bo pre

he thinks that the draft will be very help

Huirin,
of
SAN FRANCISCO, June 4. When a
sealed box car which apparently had cim.i
Intact from Galveston, Tx., was, opened In
the outhern Taclflc freight yards today
sixteen half starved Chinese were found. In
addition to half a lead of heavystcel. The
t-ar was- ten days on the road and had
been In the yards for forty-eight hours.
The. Chinese had a little water and a few
crackers left, but were weak and hollow
eyed. One of them showed a certificate
entitling him to admission to the country,
hut the others were turned over to the Im
migration authorities. It Is supposed by
the officials that the men were smuggl-d

the car at EI Paso, the seals of the car be
ing replaced with others. There evidently
was an arrangement, for their iel"ase heie,
but In some way It miscarried.

YEAST GETS FINE AND JAIL
Sentenced for Defrauding Government
Out of Grant County Land.
GIVES USUAL NOTICE OF APPEAL'
.. .. ....
Former Piillf Irian Convicted
I sln Fictitious Ktllnita to
Secure I, Brae Areas of
l.nnd.
for
Perry A. least, a former politician and
stockman of northwest Nebiaska. must
serve three months In the Hall county
Jail at Grand Island and pay a fine of
il.innl for conspiracy to defraud the go -eminent
out of land In Grant county by
mentis of fictitious filings.
Ris was the scnteni e imposed by Judge
T. C. Munger In I'nlted States district
court Thursday afternoon. Yeast s attor
ney gave notice of an appeal to the cir
cuit court of appeals and a supenedias
bond was fixed at l.'i.MOu.
The case was tried at the February
term of the United States district coutt
liefore Judge T. C. Munger in Omaha.
A verdict of guilty was returned by the
Jury nfter being out about twenty-four
hours. Sentence was suspended at that
time to permit Yeast's nttorneys to file
a bill of exceptions and prepare a motion
for a new trial.
The motion for a new trial was merely
an oral one, and this was denied by Judge
Munger Thursday afternoon. Another
motion was made by Yeast's attorneys to
have the court direct a vetdut for the
defendant, notwithstanding the verdict of
the Jury for the government. This motion
was made at the time the verdict was re
turned by the Jury and was denied at
the time
When Mr. Yeast was asked if he had
anything to say why sentence should not
be passed, he replied that he was guiltless
of any act of conspiracy or any attempt
to violate the laws of the United States,
"which are good enough for nie.'
I aunl Plea for Mercy.
Mr. Y'east's attorneys made an earnest
plea for the clemency of the court in
behalf of their client on the ground that
the offense was but a technical one at the
worst. They held that Mr. Yeast had no
intention of violating the laws and that
the lav would be vindicated by a nom
inal fine, without Mr. Yeast being sub
jected to the humiliation of Imprisonment.
They called the attention of the court to
tho recommendation of the Jury for clem
ency. Judge Munger stated that the recom
mendation of the Jury as well as its ver
dict would be taken Into consideration
and thereupon Imposed a sentence of three
months' Imprisonment In tho Hall county
Jail at Grand Island, and that the accused
should pay a fine of $1,0 and stand
committed until the fine was paid.
The particular offense of which Mr
Yeast wns charged was In securing a
number of old soldiers from the soldiers'
home at Qulncy, III., and a number of
soldiers' widows to make filings on lands
In Grant county. Nebraska. It developed
during the evidence that he had offered
a number of these declaratory statements
for sale, and that he had secured three
or four of the widows to settle oh the
lands for a nominal period, with the under
standing that they could dispose of the
lands at a good profit. One or two of the
widows did dispose ui their filings, It
was shown during the trial, under these
agreements.

BEN MARSHALL FOUND GUILTY
Jury Deride In Fifteen Minutes thnt 1
euro Is Nlliht Visntlunt of
Lone Women.
It took a Jury In the criminal court Jus,
fifteen minutes to decide that Ren Marshall
was guilty of attempting to criminally
assault Miss Mollle Grann. The verdict
was returned before Judge Sears yesterday
afternoon at 5;3u o'clock, after a tilal last
ing two days.
Resides the Grann assault Marshall Is
I also charged with a similar assault upon
Mrs. Anna Grabovvski. a few days before.
Might years ago he was charged with the
same offense against a little girl, but the
Jury found him guilty only of assault and
hatfery and he served a ninety days' sent
ence In Jail.
The state wove a strong chain of evidence
against Marshall. Miss Grann identified
him as her assailant and two watchmen
In the vicinity of the place where the
assault occurred also Identified him as thn
negro they saw running awny from the
spot the night of the assault. The rope
used to choke Miss Grann was Identified
as like a piece of rone which bad been
taken from the saloon In whlrh Marshall
was p rtrr about the time of the assault.
Mat s'i. ill's actions the day following the
assault also aroused suspicion. When Miss
Grann was taken to the saloon to look at
him he Immediately tore otf his apron and
ran out of the bark door and did not re
turn. He was arrested the next dav crouch
ing behind some seats at the Royd theater.
Marshall's defense of an alibi was punc
tured by the testimony of person he
claimed to have seen on the night of the
assault. Several of them swore It was tha
night following the assault they were with
him. Marshall was defended bv Isidor
I Zlegler.

as be cautioned listeners to remember that
he was a prejudiced witness, but asserted
that there was no doubt In his mind that
only one ballot would be cast. He said
that in his opinion the figures of the Taft
