OMAHA stay-at-homes who would be gldbe trotters,' may find a little
consolation in the fact that some of the travelers abroad are hav
ing some exciting experiences which are much too realistic to be
.enjoyable. . .,..;-.....; . '
, Mr. and Mrs. Frank L. Haller, who have been spending a delightful
summer in Germany, decided that they, would like to visit "sunny Spain"
fcefore returning home. When they arrived at the historic old city. Port
Bou, they were told that there would be no trains out of the city for a' time
owing to the railroad strike. The next day, however, they were allowed
to board a train run by soldiers, all heavily armed, but were almost
paralyzed by fear on being informed by some of the native passengers
that the strikers might dynamite the train.
' ' They finally reached Barcelona without being blown up; but they de
cided that traveling in Spain during a strike is too strenuous and have
written that they hope to get to France for a short stay before returning
home the latter part of the month.

BIG MASS MEETING FOE SUNDAY
John Xateaser, Greek Conavl, Ad
irrnri Large Meeting, Ursr'Bff
All to Take tp Arms Against
. the Tarklaa Enemy.
Urging all Greeks to return to their
mother country to take up arms against
the Turks, Consul John Latenser spoke
to 600 subjects of King George Thursday
night at the Greek church, Sixteenth and
Webster streets. . -
. He appealed to them with the thought
that the Americans would have great
respect for them if they fought to de
fend their flag, but none if they refused.
In every breast he stirred the fire of
patriotism, and , within a week it Is ex
pected that every Greek In Omaha, who
is able to fight will have left the city.
Consul Latenser's talk was delivered In
EngliBh and interpreted to the Greeks by ,
Bustus Papuchls, , a well-educated man
and a linguist prominent in the local
colony.
' Get Cheeks Early,
Greeks employed on the Missouri Pa
cific would not have been given their
monthly checks until the 13th of this
month, but they made an appeal to the
superintendents for1 their pay immediately
and the requests have been granted.
These checks are being received by the
Greek employes and some of them have
already started for New York to take
passage for Greece.
Practically every train arriving; In
Omaha brings small gwups and bands of
Greek laborers, who have dropped their
shovels and picks to take up guns. These
men Immediately get In touch with the
Omaha leaders, and leave again for tho
east in groups and squads Just -as soon
as they can arrange their affairs.
There is hardly an eastbound pas
senger train out of Omaha that does
not carry a few patriots. The Greeks are
not waiting for general orders to move,
bift are hurrying out of town in small
bunches as rapidly as they can. All are
paying their own car fare.
Party Is Orarantied,
George Teomitson, foreman of track
work on the Missouri Pacific, has been
in town for the last few days organising
a party , of patriots and he expects to
leave here with them this evening; over
the Northwestern.
.' Lieutenant Pericles Cokos, who will also
take a large party of fighters out of
Omaha, has gone to St.- Louis to bid his
mother good bye, and like the Spartan of
old, to promise to return either victorious
or borne on a bloody shield. Lieutenant
Cokos will return to Omaha Saturday to
wind up his business affairs and get a
party in readiness to leave the first of
the week. '" V
On Monday it is expected that several
hundred men will leave here and it is
pcobable that a special train will be
chartered for the purpose. There is to
be a big mass meeting Sunday In Barlght
hall and at that time arrangements will
be made for the movement of this body
of men.

Col. Yeiser Upholds
v, the Parole of Sweet
John O. Yeiser has written The Bee 'a
lengthy explanation and Justification of
the pardon in the Ernest Sweet case, i(n
which he says: ,
In reference to a criticism of the
Board of Pardons by one or more news
papers of the state, kindly permit me
the following explanation ofMhe case of
Ernest Sweet, commented upon in said
papers, with the quoted question, 'Why
was Sweet . paroled?' I desire to refer
to the opinion the board filed as a mat
ter of record, which gives the reasons.
It has been on file more than a year
and I might ask why the instigators of
the movement to revoke this parole
started the move Just before eleotlon?
'Although I cannot remember all the
little details of this case, . one part of
several hundred heard,' and although
regret you did not publish this opinion,
will - give you the substance from
memory,"
Notwithstanding his hazy memory, Mr.
Yeiser then proceeds to narrate In all
Its nauseous details the revolting crime
of which Sweet was accused, pointing
out the weak spots in the evidence
against him, and proceeds:
'As a lawyer I had great doubt of this
ionviction because of circumstantial 'evi
dence and not showing Innocent lnocu
lation could not have resulted, but, how
ever, did not favor parole on that ac
count This doubt was evidently felt by
the Jury or they would hot have recom
mended leniency. If it had been a clear
case of disease from attempted rape no
such recommendation would have been
made. But in spite of this recommenda
tion the trial Judge gave the limit. This
young man served eight years, or, with
good time, over ten years of his sen.
tenoe. It was ample for a ease of this
kind and there was ' no reason against
parole after eight years' service. I dis
liked touching such a case, with such
a name, because of prejudice, 'and It
seemed revolting because of what could
be made of It politically by half-baked
statements. But a sense of duty im
pelled me to take the step, and now we
have not the consideration of publishing
the opinion stating the basis of our
action. '
"Regardless of this, I will keep right
on in the same course when I think it
is my duty, regardless of whether critl
cisms or praise shall be the result."
Mr. Teiser differentiates the Sweet case
and the Young case, with which It lias
been contrasted, and concludes:
"Dr. Butler wrote the last opinion; Mr.
Maggl and I agreed to It I wrote the
former opinion and they agreed to that
A petition, sighed by 10,000 signatures,
gathered by agitation for political ac
tion, will not cause me to change my
conviction, order or recommendation. But
Just one man may obtain a change if he
can convince me of any fraud or perjury
or misrepresentation in this matter. . If
th people who signed this petition read
over our opinion and the record and evi
dence It Is based upon, if the facts stated
In the opinion are doubted, 90 per cent
of them would take their names off the
petition." '. '- 1
