of th Overland Limited, May 22.
d .The testimony Indicated they were get
tY'g the lay of the ground, and again
demonstrated the careful planning for
the robbery, with every, possible avenue
for escap left open. This accounts for
the complete loss of trace of the bandits
after he robbery until their plunder was
found several days after, near and In the
Ttrown Park school house, nearly four
miles distant from the scenes of the robbery.
W. II. Crary, a real' estate man who was

That Bill Matthews, alias O. C. Marvin,
Is a consummate general and an almost
faultless organiser was demonstrated at the
morning session.

Qrlgware the night of May 27 and the pre
cipitate flight of Shelton from his room In
the Sinhold rooming house on South Six

morning,, took his two grips and deliber
ately walked away after finding that he
could be of no more service to his partners
who were then in jail charged with the
robbery.' and disappeared from Omaha until
he was brought bere from Buhl, Idaho.

worked his undoing. I'p to July T, Mat

PEDAGOGUES AT BANQUETS
State Teachers'. Convention Openi
with Four Big Feeds.
BRYAN AND BUHKETT SPEAK
Propof d
City In
Traction Contract with
Beeomlns; Fnpopalar
lam Blow Off Is
Postponed.
(From a Staff Correspondent)
LINCOLN, Nov. I (Special.) The State
Teachers' association began ' Its annual
meeting here tonight with four big feeds,
It being agreed In advance that on a full
stomach much knowledge could be loaded.
So all the things the teachers have been
teaching for years and were themselves
taught years before countde for naught.
The feeds began before and lasted until
after bedtime, which broke another of the
rules laid down by the teachers.
But the teachers convened under twen
tieth century rules and so far as reported
there has been no casualties.
The collegiate banquet was held at St.
Paul's church, with Chancellor Avery as
toastmaster. The Peru-Wayne normal ban
quet was held at the auditorium on the
university campus, with President Crab
tree of the Peru Normal as toastmaster.
The Kearney-Fremont Normal banquet was
presided over by President Thomas of
Kearney. State Superintendent Bishop was
toastmaster of the normal training ban
quet which was held at the First Christian
church. At this banquet William J. Bryan
and Senator Elmer J. Burkett were speak
ers. At each of the banucts there was
uite a lengthy toast list, but the speeches
in nowise affectt'd the feed.
Many hundreds of teachers reached Lin
coln during the day and last night and
the home folks are kept pretty busy telling
the strangers how to get where they want
to go.
As a gentle reminder that they were still
on earth though enjoying an outing, diph
theria broke out yesterday in the Capital
school, striking down one of the teachers.
Every precaution, however, has been taken
to prevent any spread of the disease, so
little or no alarm la felt.
Traction Deal Becoming; Vnpopalar.
The proposed contract between the city
of Lincoln and the traction company,
wherein the city is to share in the profits
of the traction company. Is not as popular
now as when first proposed. In fact, as
It Is being discussed by the citizens the
scheme is becoming more unpopular.
It is the scheme of the traction company
to tie up the city for a number of years,
giving to it a percentage of the profits,
or in other words, operating In partnership
with tile city.
The effect of such a partnership might be
Imagined from the conversation of a per
son who has a personal Injury claim
against the company and an official of
the company.
The person was trying to reach some
settlement of his case when he was in
formed that it was very evident the two
could not get together.
"It will not be very long," the traction
official Is quoted as saying, "before such
cases as these will be passed upon by the
city attorney and the city physician for
the city will be In partnership with the
traction company and will have to pay half
of the cost." . , , , ...
According to a prominent lawyer the city
has authority to regulate the traction com
pany and to enter into such a contract
as proposed would simply be to tie the
hands of the city and take from it Its
uthority. The city now haa authority to
levy an occupation tax and if the earn
ings of the company should become so
great as to seem unreasonable, the city
has the right to increase this tax. . . Be
sides, this lawyer argued, the people who
rid on the cars are the ones entitled to
receive the benefits and Instead of the
city taking a portion of the earnings, this
should go to the people in reduced fares
Councilman Meier is fighting the proposed
contract and hot times are ahead before it
becomes a written agreement.
Aaylam Blow Oft Poatponed.
Because Governor Shallenberger failed to
reach the city today from Omaha, where
he went after voting at Alma, the Lincoln
asylum blow-off did not occur. Felix New
ton, who was deposed as bookkeeper by
Superintendent Woodard, was at the office
of the executive this morning and again
this afternoon, and he was armed with
wicked looking documents to substantiate
what he might say regarding the conduct
of the Institution. As he did not get his
audience with the governor, Newton would
not make public any of his diary. He ex
pects to see the governor tomorrow.
Newton argues that under the law Wood
ard had no authority to fire him, as he Is
employed directly under the steward.
Dnnn Will Appear Today.
All la ready for the coming of I. J. Dunn
toir orrow. As a special guest of the cour
summoned to show cause why he should
not be punished for conduct unbecoming
a lawyer Mr. Dunn's coming is awaited
with considerable interest. He will be
escorted before the covrt.by the bailiff
and there will have Justice meted out to
h'.m, unless he can show good cause for
his action In filing the black listed brief
in the case of Robinson against the city
of Omaha.

PAUL DIVORCE ARGUMENT
PROVES LONG-WINDED
Attorneys Do Not Conclude Remarks
and Talk Will Contlnne at This
Morning's Session.
Argument in the Paul divorce case was
not concluded yesterday afternoon and A.
W. Jefferls will end It this morning, reply
ing to address of counsel on the other side.
General CoWln spoke most of yesterday
afternoon, but did not quite finish. He
dwelt at length on Mrs. Paul's "standing
alone when I came Into the case." The
attorney attacked In particular the evidence
of Robert Deck, whose deposition was
offered by the plaintiff, and quoted legal
authorities to show that a man so con
fessing as did Deck "Is not worthy to be
believed under oath."
Cowlr. accused Paul of wilfully blackening
his wife's name and declared that ha him
self was "here to save the children from
the disgrace and shame sought to be forced
upon them by the husband and father."
He declared "that no report in the books
shows any sucii prosecution as his. Family
after family has been blighted by him In his
efforts. Talk of love of home," said Cowin
with reference to words of Jefferls, "did
he think of that when he talked of Bodwell,
who has two lovely daughters In his homer'
In the morning A. W. Jefferls held the
floor, and not only argued the evidence
In behalf of his client and against the de
fendant, but paid his respects also to
General Cowin.
The greatest stress of Jefferls argument
was laid upon those letters written by
Mrs. Paul to her sister, Maud Allen, and
which have generally been held to consti
tute one of the strongest cards which the
plaintiff has.
Jefferls now read extracts from the let
ters referred to, extracts imprinted and un
printable. E. J. Bodwell came in for some hot shot
during the argument:
"After Paul had told Bodwell that he
would be named as a party to the suit.
Bodwell slinks out of town. No explana
tion from him, either to clear his own
name or that or Mrs. t-aui. suppose a
man were to come to me and say, 'Jefferis,
you will be named as a party In a divorce
suit I am bringing.' If I were Innocent,
would I leave any stone unturned to con
vince him that the charge was unfounded.
If guilty, I might be afraid to face him."
Attorney Robert H. Olrr.Eted also came In
for a share of Jefferls attention with
TVTO matter how particular you are nor how)
much you pay, you cannot make nor buy;
better soups than Campbell's.
If you could only come here and see how we make them
you would realize why this is so.
You would see the big whole quarters of prime beef and
mutton that we use to make our meat-stock rich and full
