LINCOLN, Oct. K. (Special.) Candidate
fo rtho legislature whose names appear on
the official bHllot In November will not
have any Statement No. 1 on the ballot
after their names.
Secretary of State Junkin held today that
the Oregon law which Mr. Bryan had en
acted by the . legislature applied only to
the primary election. So, In . making up
hla copy for the nam pie ballots today he
did not Include any statement- signed by
candidates retarding their pledgee to vote
fore the candidate for aenator who received
the highest number of votee at the fall
elocllon.
The law plainly seta out that the primary
ballot only shall contain the pledges made
under the terms of that act. The title of
the act la aa follows:
"An act to secure a more certa.n selec
tion of the pcople'e choice for In I ted
States senator, to provide for a form of
statement In regard to election of I'nited
States aenator to be made In their nomi
nating petitions by candidates for legisla

prescribe the form of ballot and statements
thereon to be used at the primaries for the

The only way the voter will know that
the candidate he desires to vote for as
a legislator has pledged himself on the
senatorial question will bo to keep a copy
of the primary ballot with him when he
goes to the polls.

LONDON'. Oct. Ti.i.ir. Hwley Hatvey
t'rippen, the American practitioner . and
medical agent, waa today found guilty of
the murder of his wife, the American ao
trefs. Belle Elmore, and sentenced to
death. He. will be hanged November IS.
The jury wa out thirty minute. When
it returned and announced It had found the
defendant guilty Lord Chief Justice" Alver
Htone asked the physician if he had any
thing to say. Crlppen replied In a low
voice:
"I still protest my Innocence."
The chief justice then donned the black
cap that had rested near 1,1m throughout
tliw trial and pronounced the sentence of
death. Addressing the condemned man.
Lord Alverstone said:
"You have been convicted on evidence
which car. leave no doubt In the mind of
any reaaonable man that you cruelly mur
dered your wife and then mutilated her
body.
"I advise you to entertain no hope that
you will -escape th consequences of your
criilie. I implore jou to make your peao
tilth Almighty God."
-As th Ixrd Chief Justice .concluded a
policeman stepped forward and led Crlppen
from the dock.
Case Goea to the Jnry.
Th case ws given to the Jury at Z:17
thl afternoon and tt deliberation were
brief.
When court convened this morning
Richard Mulr made th closing speech for
the prosecution. He declared the crown
had proved beyond a reasonable doubt that
the body found In the cellar of the Crip-,
pen home wa that of the' doctor's wlft.
No one . elee, he said, had a cbano to
mutilate the woman and boxy the body as

brgsn his summing up of the cs. Th
Justine' described Crlppen a an ex
traordinary man-, whether gullfy or inno
cent.. If guilty, he had covered np'vk
ghastly crime in a ghastly way, und tt was
believed, In a -moat- brutal and callous man
ner. If he w Innooent. it was Impos
sible to fathom hi mind, as he Was abso
lutely Indifferent to the charge of murder.
He had taken no tep whatever to prove
bla Innocence.
Crlppen. the Justice declared, undoubtedly
was a liar and lived an lmmo:al life, but.
he added, the Jury could not conict th
defendant on that score It must be quite
convinced that the hitman part found were
from the body of Belle Blmnre and that
her death wa caused by a wilful act of
the prisoner.
waie lot possible Thins;.
The Judge asked whether it was posslht
for Crlppen to carry on a campaign of mla
repreeentatlon for six month except with
th knowledge that hla wife was not alive;
or. if it waa possible that if Bell Elmore
waa living, she could bo ao abomlnably
mean. that knowing her husband's present
position, alio would not communicate with
him or the authorities.
Th court pointed out the lack of testi
mony which had been forthcoming in sup
port of the claims of the defense. The Jury
was cautioned to treat the evidence of
the defendant medical experts with some
reserve because under cross-examination
they had altered their view as first ex
pressed. The chief Justice expressed th opinion !t
would t a remarkable 'coincidence that a
car should be found unless th flesh cam
from Bell Elmore' bodv when taken in
conjunction with the discovery of pajamas,
dyed hair, feminine under clothe and
other article similar to thos worn by
Bell Elinor. In th cellar where the body
wa unearthed.
The lord chlf Justice charged tbe Jury
that It muat be convinced of the identifica
tion beyond a reasonabl doubt. A h
concluded, th Jury retired.

them, th ensraver who made the plates
and the man charged with securing thetr
manufacture were arrested here today by
Captain Vorter of the United States secret
service and his operatives. The notes had
only been printed, not bavin the 'official'
seals or numbers Impressed. There were
150.000 notes, each of five pesos, wprth ap
proximately! S3 each, American money and
"signed" by..F. Baca, advocate general;
J. Madrits. "el presldento," and F. Mayor

George IL .Williams, president of the

charged with printing the spurious notesi
C. H. Secrceat of Tamplco, Mexico, was
accused of being the promoter having the
notes printed, and Richard J. Trumbull,
manager ot the Guarantee Engraving com
pany, Chicago, was charged with having
made the copper plates from which the

taken by the secret service men from the

of the Nlcaraguan government and that
the work wa letial. Trumbull's plea wa
similar.
The story of th counterfeiting plan, aa
according to the secret aervlce men Is a
follows: '
Fecreeat, a planter of Tampiro. Mexico,
has been loaning money to Nlcaraguans
and was unable to ask It bark because of
a shortage of currentr undu In the repub
lic. Upon a public announcement that the
government would dup!tcat- for 191 an
issue of flva peso notes similar to those
of 190 to relieve the strinnency, Mccreest,
seeing a chance to profit lllpgltlmately,
came te the United State.
Failing to tiake arrangement 1n another
city, Serrersl made a canvass of Chicago
and upon his re.preentatiou that he was
an official from Nicaragua, the Wlllla-.ua
company, through Its president, agreed to
print th paper. On the same representation,
according to Trumbull story, the Guaran

the plates.

For several days the Omaha World
Herald, driven to desperation hy the plight
of Its editor, haa been Indiscriminately .t-
! tacking republican right and left. Among
other who have fallen under It displeas
ure 1 former Judae Ben a. Baker, who .i
at present chairman of (he.tepublloan com
ndttee for Douglas county.
Becauae Judge Baker did not favor the
use of voting machines, wlilcb. the demo
crats hoped would rive them an undue
advantage In th coming election, althougt
the Judge action wa based on the law
as understood and Interpreted by the at
torneys for the county clerk, th World
Herald ha been unduly vicious In its at
tack on him. II haa been cartooned In
th guise of a burglar, carrylns off valu
abls property to destroy It. and otherwise
misrepresented, because he could not fall
in with tho plan of th . democrat . frr
carrying Dougla county, regardless of
how the votera want to register their
preferences. Judge Bakera record on tb
bench has also been assailed,' especially
that part of his service which was on th
federal bench as associate Justice of the
supreme court of New Mexico. Th injus
tice and unfairness of these attacks has
prompted Judge Baker to reply to Editor
Hitchcock. ...
Baker Replies to Jf Itchrerk.
Judge Baker liua written tho following last
ter to Editor Hlu-hcock: j
OMAHA, Oct 22, lUlO.-O. M. Hltchoock,
Editor World-Herald and surviving partner
of Bartloy & Hitchcock: Kir I have not
fulled to observe the cartoon of m re
cently published in your paper, nor hav I
forgotten our converation In Washington
Immediately after my trouble in New
Mexico. You told me in Washington at
that time how you sympathised with wo,
and how unjust Mr, Hoosevelt,-"then pres
ident," was. and that I would not get a
hearing at hla hands. I told you then thai
the president was a Just man and that I
would get a hearing and Justice would b
don m.
"You knew then that President Hooa
velt gave me a hearln and you knew h
revoked hla order for my removal and re
instated me aa associate Justice of th u
preme court of New Mexico. Possessed,
after my hearlne. of all the facts, the pres
ident passed on my case in my favor. Aif
of which you knew at the time and pub
lished In your paper. Had Roosevelt kicked
you where you picture lie did me It would
hav knocked your brains out.
' Your assault on me la unprovoked,
cowardly and malicious, and brand you
as an assassin of character and reputation.
Along with this letter 1 submit document
that nhow what the president, over tha
signature of tils attorney genet si, Mr. W.
Ji. Muvdy, did in my esse.
About Mask.
"in another cartoon iou published dm
with a mask on my lace stealing the voting
machine with Tom Dennlson. Tou know
there I no relation between Detiuison and
myself. You are the only person that con
Miders him sefiously In this campaign and
tuor than likely hav a secret deal with
him to turn over the Third ward to th
democratic ticket.
" You should luivo made to tna.-ks to
have concealed your identity in your trans
actions with Joe Hartley, state treasurer,
one on your face and one on your hand.
You were over-confident In Hartley's last
ing friendship for you. Had I known at
the time I sentenced Bartley of 'the evi
dence that in now made public against
you, you would probably huve gnpe to the
pen Instead of to congrea.
"If I were the bad man you plctjred mo,
that would be no rea.un why you should
go to tha United ritutca senate. If aUJ
iCuulmued va i out in 'ae.)
