VOL. XVJII. PUBLISHERSAPPEAL Kick on Libel Act Passed by Quaker Legislature. Case of State's Daily Newspaper is Presented in Stirring Speech by Charles Emory Smith. of Philadelphia. Every important newspaper in Pennsylvania was represented at the hearing on the Grady-Salus libel bill by Governor Pennypacker Tuesday in the hall of the house of representatives at Harrisburg. Attorney General Carron sat with the governor throughout the hearing, but neither indicated what would be the governor's action on the measure. The opening speech was made by Charles Emory Smith of The Philadelphia Press. At the outset of Mr. Smith's address Governor Pennypacker took exception to his use of the word "insolently" and suggested that it would be well for the speaker to emit the strong adjectives. Mr. Smith accepted the suggestion, saying at the same time that he spoke strongly because he felt strongly. Mr. Smith said in part: This bill would incorporate a new principle in the code. It would make any publication actionable in which there has been negligence, even where there is nothing of a defamatory or injurious character. It does not require that the matter should be libelous. And so, this bill practically makes every incorrect publication actionable, no matter what its character. What unlimited fields of litigation, what boundless sources of annoyance are opened in this extraordinary provision! "In the presentation of the news of the day errors will inevitably creep in. The errors need not, under this bill be libellous. They need only result from what may be called negligence, and every error, every misprint, every mistake in any single element of a statement may be made the basis of a suit for damages. "The bill is special legislation in that it excludes weekly newspapers. It treads all around the weekly and carefully avoids stepping on it. The weeklies in Pennsylvania number 954, and the dailies 209. To declare that a statement is a libel when printed in 209 dailies and not a libel when printed in 954 weeklies is simply grotesque." "This bill is utterly powerless to stop the particular kind of publication which it alms at, but it encompasses legitimate publications with an unlimited network of embarrassment and vexation; it would cripple and curtail the presentation of the regular and proper news of the day; it would start up a whole swarm of speculative shysters and curbstone blackmailers; it infringes the just and constitutional liberty of the press, and would impair that valuable protection for public morals and public rights which is found in the searchlight of publicity; it is special legislation in undertaking to make a law for newspapers while excepting the weekly newspapers from its operations; it perpetrates a gross wrong in seeking to fasten the principal's responsibility upon the agent, where the agent not only does not commit the offense, but where he has not even the power to prevent it." The libel bill provides that civil action may be brought against any owner or managing editor of any newspaper published in Pennsylvania to recover damages resulting from negligence on the part of such owners or managing editors in publications affecting the character, reputation or business of citizens and that compensatory damages may also be recoverd for "the physical and mental sufferings endured by the injured parties," and whenever such publication is given special prominence by the use of cartoons, etc., a jury shall have the right to award punitive damages against the defendants. It also provides that every newspaper published in Pennsylvania shall publish on the editorial page the name of the owner, or owners, together with the name of the managing editor. AGED MURDERER HANGED. Dr. Gartrell, Seventy Years Old, Launched Into Eternity. At Butler, Mo., Friday James L. Gartrell, the aged murderer of D. B. Donegan, a Colorado miner, was hanged in the county jail yard. About 1,500 persons witnessed the execution, many coming to town from the surrounding country. Dr. Gartrell displayed remarkable nerve and talked briefly to the spectators before the black cap was adjusted. He stated that he had only one enemy he could not forgive, but would not mention his name. The Savannah Tribune. DIED IN FLAMING WRECK. Men and Women Burn to Death in Frightful Railroad Accident at Red House, N. Y. Eight persons dead and ten injurel, three of them seriously, is the result of a collision between a passenger train and a freight train on the Erie road at an early hour Monday morning near Red House, N. Y. Of the dead, only one man, Robert Hotchkiss, a brakeman, was identified. Seven bodies, apparently those of three men, three women and a child, were burned beyond recognition in the fierce fire which followed the wreck. The women are said to have boarded the train at Youngstown and to have come from Pittsburg. R. S. McCready, a mall welgher, of Meadville, Pa., and Frank Barhite, of Jamestown, a travelling salesman, are missing, and it is likely two of the unidentified bodies are those of the two men. The wrecked passenger train was known as No. 4, running from New York to Chicago, and was made up of engine No. 545 in charge of Engineer Samuel Cook and Fireman Fred Bell, of Meadville; one combination car, two day coaches and three sleepers and two private cars. It was derailed by striking a freight train which was taking a sliding at Red House. The wreck at once took fire and the combination car, two day coaches and two sleepers, together with several freight cars, were consumed. There was some dispute as to the cause of the wreck. The passenger train was running east and the freight, which was westbound, had orders to go into the sliding at Red House and wait for the passenger train to go by. The sliding is about a mile and a half long. There is a tower of the block system near the west end. The freight was drawn by two engines. Some trouble was experienced in entering the sliding and the foremost engine was sent in along the sliding with a flagman to hold the express. It is alleged that the operator in the tower, Lawrence Vale, a boy 17 years old, saw the light engine of the freight, which was bringing up the flag, and supposing the freight was behind it, Vale displayed a white signal to the passenger train, indicating to the engineer he had a clear track. The engineer on the passenger failed to see the flagman sent out from the forward engine of the freight train and saw only the clearance signal from the tower. The train ran toward the east end of the sliding at high speed and collided with the second engine of the freight train just as it was about to clear the main line. The passenger engine and some of the coaches crashed into a small wooden structure used as a feed store and school house. The first half dozen cars of the freight train were wrecked. They were box cars loaded with coal. The coal filtered in amongst the wreckage, creating an intense heat. All but three of the cars of the express followed the engine and the whole mass of wreckage was soon in flames. HOWARD WAS TANGLED UP. Cross-Examination Questions Proved Too Much for Suspect James B. Howard, on trial on the charge of killing Governor Goebel, took the witness stand again Monday at Frankfort, Ky., for further cross-examination. The witness declared he was in the Board of Trade hotel when the crowd passed bearing the wounded man. He could give no description of the manner in which Goebel was being carried and got considerably tangled on this point. The cross-examination of Howard was completed at 11:30. He contradicted himself on a number of important points as compared with the record in former trials. COURT RELEASES VANDERBILT. William K. is Given Permission to Take Unto Himself Another Wife. At New York Monday Justice Glegerich, in the supreme court, signed an order permitting William K. Vanderbilt to marry again. The order modifies the decree obtained by Mrs. Alva E. Vanderbilt in 1895, by which Mr. Vanderbilt was forbidden to marry within the life of his divorced wife. GHOUL PLEADS INSANITY. Rufus Cantrell, "King of Body Snatchers." Arraigned in Court. The case of Rufus Cantrell, confessed "king of the negro ghouls," was called for trial at Indianapolis Monday. Sam Martin, the first of the gang to be called, was convicted Friday. A special plea of insanity was filed in Cantrell's case by the defense, and a plea of not guilty entered. The indictment under which Cantrell is to be tried, charges him with \stealing, concealing and having in his possession the body of Rose Neldinger, stolen from Pleasant Hill cemetery, and with conspiring to commit a felony. SAVANNAH. GA.. SATURDAY. APRIL 25, 1903. SAME OLD TROUBLE Operators and Miners Having More Disagreements. LOCK-OUT NOW IN FORCE Trouble Brought About Through Operators' Disregard of Eight-hour Day Award of Commission. A special from Pottsville, Pa., says: Of the forty-three collieries of the Philadelphia and Deading Coal and Iron Company, all but eleven were shut down Monday, owing to the employees being locked out by an order of the company. At the thirty-two idle operations many of the employees on Saturday refused to work nine hours, as demanded by the management of the company. In the Shenandoah and Mahanoy regions, the storm center, all of the Reading operations are now closed. Upwards of 30,000 mine workers are locked out by this company alone. Shut Out. at Shenandoah. The company also forced a lockout at every one of their nine collieries in the Shenandoah district. The men were notified on Saturday that if they did not work the full nine-hour day they could consider themselves discharged. When they reported for work Monday they were told there was no work for them. Mitchell at Wilkesbarre. President Mitchell, of the United Mine Workers, arrived at Wilkesbarry late Monday afternoon from Indianapolis. He presided at a joint meeting of the district executive boards and heard the grievances of the mine workers resulting from the misinterpretation of the strike commission's award. Probably the most serious matter to be adjusted is the lockout inaugurated by the Reading company in the lower anthracite field. NO FOREIGNER NEED ASK. Thomas Nelson Page has caused a great sensation in social and diplomatic circles in Washinfliton by not inviting a single member of the legations to the ball given last Friday evening in honor of the debatante daughter of Mrs. Page, who was Mrs. Field before her marriage to the famous author of southern stories. A friend of the Pages said to a newspaper correspondent Monday that she highly approved the course of Mrs Page in not inviting a single member of the foreign diplomatic circles, as there have been a number of recent lessons not generally known to the public which Washington social leaders are taking to heart in sending out invitations in introducing their daughters to society. Even diplomats, who are practically of American blood, were omitted from the invitations to the Page hall. Miss Florence Field, in whose honor the ball was given, is the daughter of Thomas Field, who left his widow twenty millions. Miss Field's uncle is Marshall Field, the Chicago merchant prince. She enjoys in her own right $60,000 a year from her father's estate, and it is the openly declared intention of her mother that she shall not become a foreign alliance. "The social affairs at which the foreign diplomatic element predominates in Washington have been meeting with small favor for some time past from the Washington social leaders," said your informant, "who do not approve of the large number of foreigners, many of them pennitless, who hang on the edge of the embassies, although only in a few cases directly connected with them. These men, some of them with titles almost princely, have captured heiresses' and the marriages have been anything but happy." CONVICTS TAKE LEG BAIL.

HOWARD'S DEFENSE Alleged Slayer of Goebel Makes His Statement. SEEKS TO PROVE AN ALIBI Swears He Was Elsewhere When Goebel Was Shot—Ex-Governor Taylor-Continues to Make Denials of Complicity In Plot. James Howard was called as the first witness for the defense in his trial at Frankfort, Ky., Saturday for the murder of Governor Gobel. He testified to arriving in Frankfort shortly before the shooting of Goebel, on January 20. He repeated his former testimony that he was in the Board of Trade hotel when he heard of the shooting and that he had not previously that day visited the state house grounds. His defense is an alibi, and in support of this he gave the allied movements of himself in and about the hotel from the time of his arrival until after the shooting. He denied that he knew Taylor, Culton or Goebel. The witness also denied emphatically that he ever saw Henry Youtsoy until he met him in jail after their arrest, and he denied positively and emphatically that he ever received a letter from Governor W. S. Taylor or did any of the things which the secretary testified. Howard had not concluded his story when court took a recess until the afternoon. No Agreement With Youtscy. At the afternoon session of the court Howard continued his testimony in his own behalf. He declared he had never had an agreement with Youtscy and had never spoken to him until he had seen him in jail. Howard claimed that the first he knew of his indictment was when he saw it in the papers and said he surrendered to Sheriff White of his own free will. Upon ocross-examination he stated that he want to Frankfort on January 30, 1000, to see Taylor, but failed to accomplish his mission, as the gates to the capitol square were barred. Later he succeeded in seeing him. Never Saw Powers. Howard also denied having seen John Powers or having been introduced to Wharton Golden on the afternoon of the shooting. In response to a question as to where he spent the night of the shooting, the defendant replied: "My impression is that I slept at the Board of Trade hotel." At a former trial he had stated that he slept in one of the rooms of the agricultural building, and explained the difference in his statements by saying that after his last trial he had talked with Berry Howard and others, who enabled him to locate himself on the first and second nights following the murder. Asked if a militia captain had taken him to a crowd of soldiers on the night of the murder and ordered them to take good care of him, Howard replied that he did not recollect the occurrence. Court then adjourned until Monday morning. Taylor Still Denying. A special from Indianapolis says: W. S. Taylor, ex-governor of Kentucky, Saturday said in an interview that so far as he remembers, he never met Howard and did not know him while he was governor of Kentucky. He also says he does not, so far as he knows, at present, know Frank Cecil, who gave evidence Wednesday charking him with being responsible for the murder of Governor Goebel. He also says that he did know Henry Youtsey, but not intimately, and that he did not even know what position Youtsey occupied around the state house and never conferred with him on any important matter. Mr. Taylor denies having dictated any letter to Howard. Taylor says he does not fear any plans to kidnap him. Cecil Knows Taylor Well. Frank Cecil, who gave some sensational testimony in the Howard trial at Frankfort, was in Louisville Fridav. Cecil was surprised to see a statement from Taylor denying that he was acquainted with him. Cecil says he and Taylor were intimately acquainted and that Taylor often visited his home. Cecil further says that he spent the night after the killing of Goebel at Taylor's house; that with him were Will Reynolds and Bruce Matthews. Army Officer a Smuggler. Captain Harry B. Chamberlain, of the quartermaster's department, is on trial in Manila on charge of smuggling silks and purpos into Manila. BRYAN "KNOCKS" GROVER Nebraskan, In Banquet Speech, Charges Ex-President with Metrayal of Democratic Party. William J. Bryan, speaking at Kansas City Monday night to the toast "Democracy" at the banquet given by the Democratic Jackson County club and the newspaper men of Missouri complimentary to William J. Stone, at which the addresses did not begin until long after midnight, bitterly arraigned Grover Cleveland and his supporters who are making the plea for harmony among Democrats. The assembly was made up of Missouri Democrats and the remarks of Mr. Bryan met with enthusiastic favor with his hearers. He said in part: "What we need in this nation is moral courage among men. We need moral courage more than ability and we want to have the kind of moral courage that will fight for honest Democratic principles. "In your junior senator, William Joel Stone, you have in Missouri a man who possesses both moral courage and ability. I am glad that you have harmony in this state. I believe the Democrats of Missouri give the best idea of how to secure harmony among the Democrats of the nation. I believe in harmony. "The Democrat's bed is wide enough for all who want to come in, but we don't have to sit up nights to keep certain pretenders from picking our pockets. We invite all who have strayed from the fold to come back if they so desire, but we want them to stay in after they come. "We have had enough of Clevelandism in the Democratic party. We had four years of Cleveland, and after his administration was over we found ourselves weaker than we had ever been before because we had been betrayed." "The Democratic party won a great victory in 1892, which gave our party a great opportunity, but Grover Cleveland betrayed the Democratic party and I, through two national campaigns, carried the burden of his administration and there was not a plank in either platform that was such a detriment to me in those campaigns as that burden was. "Cleveland had the best opportunity to redeem the Democratic party ever offered to any man since the time of Andrew Jackson, but instead of being true to his party he disgraced himself. "As a party, we must stand true to Democratic principles and if we do I believe that Dmocratic victory will some day come, and it will be here to remain when it comes." "He is of the highest service to his fellows, who can give the highest ideal. There has been a lowering of ideals in this country. Money is talked about morning, noon and night. Commercialism is the curse of the country today, and it has debauched our country. The foreigner has come to regard the American simply as a money-maker and we give cause for the belief that we put nothing beyond wealth, and that money is rufing the country with an iron hand." TAYLOR DID NOT OBJECT. Kentucky Governor Was Willing that Goebel Should be Killed. At Frankfort, Ky., Tuesday Henry Youtsey was recalled for further cross-examination in the trial of James Howard. During the interrogation Youtsey declared that from and after the shooting of Goebel all of the others engaged in the killing conspired together to clear themselves and throw the entire responsibility of the crime upon him. Responding to questions as to negotiations with Dr. Johnson to kill Goebel, Youtsey said he went to see Senator Deboe, and told him Johnson and others were willing to do it. Senator Leboe said the witness, replied that enough democrats were going to vote, with Taylor to retain him in office and it would not be necessary to kill Goebel. Witness went back and told Johnson what Deboe said. Johnson told him not to pay any attention to Deboe, but to go and see what Governor Taylor said, and Taylor raised an objection to the plan of shooting from the secretary of state's office.

Could not these ministers have given this work to one or more of the four col- ored lawyers in the city? These ministers make it a specialty to talk about the manner in which the whites discriminate against the race.

JANVEAU Miss Della Janvean, Globe Hotel, Ottawa, Ont., is from one of the oldest and best known French Canadian families in Canada. In a recent letter to The Peruna Medicine Co., of Columbus, Ohio, she says: "Last spring my blood seemed clogged up, my digestion poor, my head ached and I jelt languid and tired all the time. My physician prescribed for me, but a friend advised me to try Peruna. I tried it and am pleased to state that I found it a wonderful cleanser and purifier of the system. In three weeks I was like a new man, my appetite had increased, I felt buoyant, light and happy and without an ache or pain. Peruna is a reliable family medicine." FASTEN AGE MARKS.

GALESBURG, ILL., March 20, 1903—The sample of Doan's Kidney Pills came to hand.

This, according to, the Boston Herald, was what came of it, at least in the minds of the more literal-minded children: The topic had been carefully explained, and, as an aid to understanding, the teacher had given each pupil a card bearing the picture of a boy fishing. "Even pleasure," said she, "requires the exercise of patience. See the boy fishing! He must sit and wait and wait. He must be patient." Having treated the subject very fully, she began with the simplest, most practical question: "And now can I little boy tell me what we need most when we go fishing?" The answer was shouted with one voice: "Now tell me candidly, Miss Keene, what do you think of my new historical story?" "I must confess, Mr. Booker, that I haven't read far enough to discover it merits." "Why, your sistet, told me that you read it through a week ago." "Yes, I did."—Kansas City Journal.

A prominent club woman, Mrs. Danforth, of St. Joseph, Mich., tells how she was cured of falling of the womb and its accompanying pains and misery by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. "Dear Mrs. Pinkham:—Life looks dark indeed when a woman feels that her strength is fading away and she has no hopes of ever being restored. Such was my feeling a few months ago when I was advised that my poor health was caused by prolapsus or falling of the womb. The words sounded like a knell to me, I felt that my sun had set; but Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound came to me as an elixir of life; it restored the lost forces and built me up until my good health returned to me. For four months I took the medicine daily and each dose added-health and strength. I am so thankful for the help I obtained through its use."—Mrs. FLORENCE DANFORTH, 1007 Miles Ave., St. Joseph, Mich. A medicine that has restored so many women to health and can produce proof of the fact must be regarded with respect. This is the record of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, which cannot be equalled by any other medicine the world has ever produced. Here is another case:— "DEAR MRS. PINKHAM:—For years I was troubled with falling of the womb, irregular and painful menstruation, leucorrhoea, bearing-down pains, backache, headache, dizzy and fainting spells, and stomach trouble. "I doctored for about five years but did not seem to improve. I began the use of your medicine, and have taken seven bottles of Lydia E.
