THE BEE: OMAHA, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 20, 1918. DISMISS CHARGE OF SEDITION AGAINST PRIEST ;.' Judge Woodrough Sustains ' Demurrer That Remarks Charged in Indictment Are Not Unlawful. The trial of Rev. Father Ferdi nand Siinucttgen, Catholic priest of llartingtop, Neb., under federal indictment l violation of the es pionage act. was dismissed before Judge Woodrough Thursday inorn- The court room was crowded to ( Capacity willi people who have conic 'Voui liartnigtou to attend the trial 'i Schnuettgen was accused of speak ing disparagingly of Liberty .bonds snfrof saving that people are forced lo, buy Liberty bonds to evade mob io!cnce and that certain other lottds arc belter than Liberty bonds. Attorney M. F. Harrington de fended the priest ami I'nited States .Attorney Allen ami liis assistant. Howard Sastoii. conducted the trial for the government. The ca'-e was dismissed when Federal Judge Woodrough sustained l demurrer on the indictment that ;he remarks charged to have been made by the prie-t were not sedi tious. A similar demurrer was over ruled during a prfiu trial uf the :ase in federal court i:i Norfolk. Basis of Charge. - The remarks alleged in the indict ment follow : "I would like to have one of these Omaha cathedral bonds in ..every home. I know that you have been buying Liberty bonds and have gone out the top many ' "ies. Von were compelled to buv Liberty bonds in order to evade mob law ami escape being placed on the slacker list. 1 would like ' t i i to see vou buv these bonus even though thev arc not compulsory. These fonds arc better than Lib erty, bonds nnd 1 hey give you more interest. Of course I know that there nothing betterand , bigger than I'nclc Sam, but 1 would rather deal with a poor man ,. and have him honest than deal i" with a i ich man and have him .-. scoundrel." "I advise vou not to invest in Liberty bonds. If you do buy . them you can't tell what will hap pen to this government and you (may lose your money." Friends Greet Priest. A large group of friends of Father Schneuttgeti, gathered in the lobby of , the l'axton hotel, after the ter- initiation of the trial and over- helmed htm with congratulations. While the informal reception was in progress the prosecuting wit nesses in the case, who formed a nearby group, looked on as spec ulators. Frank O'dara, former county at torney of Cedar county, said, as the members of the crowd shook the hand3 of the priest in felicitation: .- "The action of Judge Woodrough Swill be received with acclaim by 99 per cent of the pe-plc of llartington. " Father Schneuttgen was the victim of a cabal of personal epemies who have used this means of trying '.o run him out of the parish. "His congregation is composed of members of Irish and German birth or antecedents, all of whom arc in tensely loyal to the country and .who, had lie been guilty of sedition would have been the first to accuse ihim and call him to book."

The Abandoned Room By Wadsworth Canpp CHAPTER XXXI The Scar on the Neck "That's what I meant," Taredcs whispered. Graham moved back. "Good God!" Robinson stared. The fear had found him, too. Doctor Groom touched Black burn's shoulder tentatively. "What's the matter with the back fo your neck?" Blackburn drew fearfully away. He raised his hand and fumbled at the top of his collar. He held his fingers to the firelight. "Why," he said blankly. "I been bleeding back there." To an extent the doctor controlled himself. "Sit down here, Silas Blackburn," he said. "I want to get the lamp light on your head." "I ain't badly hurt?" Blackburn whined. "I don't know," the doctor an swered. "Heaven knows." Blackburn sat down. The liglit shone full on the stained collar and the dark patch of hair at the base of the brain. Doctor Groom examined the wound minutely. He straight ened. He spoke unsteadily: "It is a healed wound. It was made by something sharp." Robinson thrust his hands in his pockets. "You're getting beyond tny depths. Doctor. Bring him up to the old bedroom. I want him to sec that pillow." But Blackburn cowered in his chair. "I won't go to that room again. They don't want me there. I'll have work started in the cemetery to morrow." "Mr. Blackburn," Robinson said, "the man we buried in the cemetery today, the man these nieinhe-s of your family identify as yourself.died of just such a wound as the doctor says has healed in your hea d." Blackburn cowered farther in his chair. "You're making fun of me," he whimpered. "You're trying to scare an old man." "No," Robinson said. "How was that wound made?" The croiched figure wagged its head from side to side. "I don't know. Nothing's touched me there. I remember I had a head ache when 1 woke up. Wry doesn't Groom tell me why I slept so Ling?" "I only know." Groom rumbled, "that the wound I exomined upstairs must have caused instant death." Paredes w hispered to him. The doctor nodded reluctantly. "What do you mean?" Blackburn cried. "You trying to tell me I can't stay with you?" He pointed to Paredes. "That's what he said that I might have to go back, but I never heard of such a thing. I'm all right. My neck doesn't hurt. I'm alive. I tell you I'm alive. I'll teach you " Rawline returned from the tele phone. "His story's straight," he said in his crisp manner. "I've been talking to Waters himself. Says Mr. Black burn turned up about 3:30. looking queer and acting queer. Wouldn't shake bauds, just as he says. He went to the spare room and slept practically all the time until this : f- ternoon. No food. Waters couldn't rouse him. Mr. Blackburn wouldn't answer at all or else seemed half asleep. He'd made up his mind to call in a doctor this afternoon. Then Mr. Blackburn seemed all right again, and started home." Robinson gazed at the fire. Whats to be done now, Rawlins asked. "Find the answer if we Rohinso nsaid. Paredes spoke as softly as he had done the other night while reciting his sensitive reaction to the Cedars' gloomy atmosphere. Only now his voice wasn't groping. "Call me a dreamer if you want, Mr. District Attorney, but I have given you the only answer. This man's soul ,has dwelt in two plac es." Robinson grinned. "I'm going slow on callii.g any body names, but I haven't forgotten that there's been another crime in this house. Howells was killed in that room, too. T would like to be lieve he could return as Mr. Black burn has." Blackburn looked up. "What's that? Who's Howells?" And as Robinson told him of the second crime he sank back in his chair again, whimpering from time to time. His fear was harder to watc. "Might I suggest," Graham said, "that Howells isn't out of the case vet? It would be worth looking "into." "By all means," Robinson agreed. Rawlins coughed apologetically. 1 "I asked them about that at the i ofhice. Howells was taken to his home in Boston today. The funer al's to be tomorrow." "Then," Robinson said, "we're confined for the present to this end of the case. The facts 1 have tell me that tuo murders have been com mitted in this house. It is still my first duty to convict the guilty man." Graham indicated the huddled, frightened figure in the chair. "You are going against the evi dence of your own eyes." "I shall do what I can." Robin son said sternly. "We buried one of those men this noon. His grandson, his niece, and those who saw him frequently, swear it was this living being who has such a wound as the one that caused the death of that man. There is only one thing to do sec who we buried.'1' "The permits?" Graham suggested. "I shall telephone the judge,"Rob i n son answered, "and he can send them out. but I shan't wait for hours doing nothing. I am going to the grave at once." "A waste of time," Paredes mur mured. "I don't understand," Silas Black bum f liiued. "You say the doors were locked. Then how could, any body have got in that room fo be murdered? How did I get out?" Robinson turned on Paredes an grily. "I'm not through with you ct. Before I am I'll get what I want from you." He stormed away to the tele phone. No one spoke. The doc tor's rumpled bead was still bent over the back of Silas Blackburn's chair. The infused eyes didn't waver from the crimson stain and the healed wound, and Blackburn remained huddled aboug the cush ions, his shoulders twitching. Pare des commenced gathering up his cards. Kathcriiie watched him out of expressionless eves. Graham walked to her side. Rawlins, as al ways phlegmatic, remained motion less, waiting for bis superior. Bobby threw off his recent numb ness, lie realized the disturbing parallel in the actions of his grand father and himself. He h.td conic to the Cedars unconsciously, perhaps directed by an evil, external in fluence, on the night of the first murder. Now. it appeared, the man he was accused of killing bad also wandered under an unknown im pulse that night. Was the same subtle contr 1 responsible in both cases? Was there at the Cedars a force that dclied physical laws, mov ing its inhabitants like puppets for special aims of its own? Yet. he recalled, there was something here friendly to him. After the move ment of Howells' body and the dis appearance of the evidence, the re turn of Silas Blackburn stripped Robinson's threats of power and seemed to place the solution beyond the district attorney's trivial reach.

"At the top of the hill across the valley," answered Blue Jay. Officer Casey looked hard and long at the hill. "I don't see any signs of a wireless outfit," he said. Neither did Peggy. "What's a wireless outfit like?" asked Blue Jay. "The out-of-doors part is just a lot of wires hung on a fran.e between two towers," answered Peggy. "Wires," mused Blue Jay. "Seems to me 1 saw some wires up on the hill this morning. They don't seem to be there now." Here was a new mystery. Peggy quickly told Officer Casey what Blue Jay had said. "Maybe they've been scared out, and we're too late," said the police man. "And maybe, too, what Hel en's father said was only the rav ings cf a man hurt in the head. Perhaps there wasn't any wireless, but I'm going to see what's on the hill" "And I'm going with you, said reggy. "Me, too," cried Blue Jay.
