WITHOUT A JURY.
Beff-Confessed Bobber Willing to

fade was trie without aMury. the Judre
determining tin degree ot crime. It Is the
trst case of the kind on record.
Wade had previously confessed to having
been connected with the crime charged, but
'declared that his partner. Dalton. who was
convicted yesterday, fired the fatal shot In
' such cases, under the Oregon law. the Court
Must determine the degree of crime, and a
trial accordingly was held without a Jury.
"Only three witnesses were examined, the
stenographer who reported the Dalton trial;
King, who was the main witness at that
trial, and Chief of FoUce Mcbouchlan. The
defense offered no testtmony. but Wade
asked permission to make a statement,
which was granted. He repeated his asser
tion that Dalton tired the fatal shot, but
said he had no desire to escape full punish
ment for his .share In the crime. Be had
been betrayed by Dalton. he declared, and
that was the reason he wanted to get Dal
ton hanged with himself. He had but one
request to make, which was that he be not
sentenced unUI Dalton's case should be
finally disposed ot
To this Judge Fraser replied that sen
tence would not be pronounced at this time.
"Tou have pleaded guilty as charged." said
Judge Fraser, addressing Wade, "and the
law makes It the duty of the Court to de
termine the degree of murder. According
'.to your statement you were a party to the
robbery In the course of which life was
;taken. and under the law It makes no dif
ference who fired the shot. The Court sees
hut one finding, and that Is that you are
guilty of murder In the first degree."
Wade never flinched, but teceated that
lie was willing to die. and said he hoped
Hiobody would feel badly over the matter.

The procedure at this trial Is said by local
Attorneys to be unprecedented.

IN VENEZUELA.
Influential Men Join General Mat

Willesmstad, Island of Curacao. Dec 21.
General Lucanlo Mendoza, President elect
or the State of Carabobo; Senor Antonio
Fernandez. War Minister under President
Andrade, and Senor Lutowsky. War Min
ister in former President Crespo's Cabinet,
rebelled Thursday against President Castro
near La Victoria. The revolutionists
reached Cagua on the way to Villa de
Cura. where their partisans had concen
trated from all of the surrounding districts.
The movement, it is asserted, had long
been premeditated, and is In accord with
that of General Mattos, who is expected at
Martinique to-morrow.
It Is considered a terrible blow against
President Castro, who, Immediat'Iy upon
learning of the uprising, dispatches troops
from Maracalbo by rail, but found the lines
destroyed at Caguay. Traffic on the German
railroad is interrupted and telephone and
telegraph lines have been cut.
Another uprising, it Is reported, lias taken
place near Valencia, and it Is said that
the entire country Is ready to take up arms
against the administration of General Cas
tro. The Government censorship is strictly
enforced.
Official circles In Caracas consider the
Mendoza movement an extremely serious
one. and fear that other Uprisings will oc

WARM WAVE WARDS
OFF GOAL FAMINE.
Stringency Also Is Partly Relieved
by Improved Transportation
Across Eads Bridge.
PRICES STAY AT TOP NOTCH.
Conditions May Return to Normal
by the Middle of the Week
'Small Dealers Sell Fuel
by Basketful.
Higher temperature and better transpor
tation facilities combined partly relieved
the threatened coal famino yesterday.
Unless some unforeseen trouble should
arise, the market will be again In its nor
mal condition by Tuesday or, at latent,
Wednesday, according to the statements of
large dealers and mine operators.
Rut even the warm weather yesterday
dlil not bring the price of fuel down to the
usual figures. Soft coal sold for from 13 to
cents n bushel in small lots, and the
quantity available even at thl price w.is
limited. The same coal sold In Kast St.
Louis. In carload lots, for KtoHa ton.
The usual price, by the car, is J1.23 a ton.
The Terminal Railway Association charges
30 cents a ton for hauling coal to this side
of the river. Yesterday saw the truffle
across the bridge practically doubled. The
teams, too, were able to make better time
and the men and horses suffered much less
from the cold.
Dealers who sell the products of mines
thev control cr operate were able to bupply
the most urgent demands of their custom
ers jesterday, but those who h.ive to de
pend on others for their supply had to
throw up their hands and admit that the
situation was too much for them. A few
were able to obtain a limited amount of
coal, and this was retailed to regular cus
tomers only In lots of a few bushels. Small
dealers who managed to get coal to sell
disposed of it by the basketful at exorbi
tant prices In the poorer parts of tbe city.
Secretary William F. Gould of the Donk
Bros. Coal and Coke Company said:
"The worst of the stringency has passed
and, unless another cold wave should come,
we can begin clearing up back orders by
the middle of the week. The condition Is
readily explained. The cold weather made
It simply Impossible for the railroads to
handle the cars with the usual soeed. and
at the samo time the demands for transpor
tation have enormously Increased. The
same condition -can arise again and there
win De no remedy, just as now. The tact
that the river closed so quickly made the
situation worse. Then tne extreme cold
weather was uulte unexpected, and that
caught stocks women hat loner than they
would have been."
The office buildings' which had exnerl-
enced difficulty in getting enough coal to
run the elevators Friday managed to lay in
a sufficient supply to Iast'them over to-dnv,
and before to-night they all hope to be, safe
from even a seero cold snap. The half
holiday for workmen saved several facto
ries from being compelled to temporarily
stop operations for want of coal. These all
expect to be fully supplied by to-morrow
morning.

CANCELED WRONG MORTGAGE
Lien Against Property Discharged
Because of Clerk's Mistake.
REPUBLIC SPECIAL.
New York. Dec. a.-Through the mistake
of a clerk In handling papers In a settle
ment of mortgages recently, it Is asserted
the Union Trust Company canceled a lien
It held against Mrs. Anna Crossley, on her
property at No. 2099 Eighth avenue, for J37,
09. when It should have given the satis
faction on the house next doer, at No. 2101
Eighth avenue, owned by Zlcgler Bros., a
Arm of Ninth avenue liquor dealers.
It was stated yesterday that the trust
company had 'commenced suit against Mrs.
Crossley to csmpel her to grant a renewal
of the mortgage. The blunder occurred In
the closing of a sale of the five-story apart
ment house at No. 2101 Eighth avenue.
Some time ago Zlegler Rros. Itegan nego
tiations with Christian Sicbcld for the pur
chase of the property ut No. 2101 Hignth
avenue, agreeing to assume the mortgaee
of 137.500 held by the trust company. When
the sale had been made the Zlegler Bros,
were given what was then supposed to b
a canceled mortgage on their property, thsy
having paid $17,500 of the original loan
through the Title Guarantee and 'J niit C m
pany. which concern assumed the balance
of K0.O00.
It was not until some time afterword that
It was discovered that the ZiJgler Bros, had
not received the correct papers. They
learned this when they were asked to pay
the semi-annual Interest on the original
mortgage, and an investigation was made
with the result that It was learned that the
trust company had Inadvertently b'.otted out
the wrong mortgage, which w-as for tbe
same amount and on similar property.

ONCE WEALTHY MAN
DIES IN PENURY,
Onlr One Mourner at Funeral of
Doctor Thomas Delevan tie Voe,
Playwright and Tout.
TWICE DISAPPOINTED IN LOVE.
Burial in Potter's Field Attended
by an Old Friend Life
Was Full of Ro
mance. In a plain pine box out in potter's field,
with but one lone mourner at the grave
side, the body of Doctor Thomas Delavan
de Voe. who was poet, plaright, miner,
dentist and a member of a prominent Nova
Scotia family, was lowered to final rest
yesterday morning by city grave-diggers.
Success, almost fame, had been his por
tion; but In his palmiest da5s disappoint
ment in love twlcs robbed him of the joy
in his achievements which might otherwise
have been his. Then, when he passed mid
dle age, his materialjaffalrs ceased to pros
per. He was, reduced to poverty and forced
to struggle hard rorexistence.
Five years ago a slight cough developed
Into consumption, and since that time his
life was a living death. He passed away
Friday at No. 2211 Market street, the home
of Mrs. M. B. Page.' his only clo-e friend in
this city, and who nlone of all who had
called him friend in his 69 jears of life fol
low ed his body to the cemetery.
Doctor de Voe was born In St. Johns,
Nova Scotia. His family, a branch of a
noble French family whose head still lives
In the Province of .Lorraine; were of tiio
earliest emigrants to Nova Scotia, receiv
ing large grants of land in that territory.
He w;1s a younger son, of adventurous spir
it. He was well educated and was gradu
ated in dentistry' at Montreal. Canada
when a young man. Callfcrnla was then
the promised land to the oung men of the
Atlantic Coast. Thither he decided to go
and. despite parental opposition, he went

made a little money. But the hardships ot
prospecting and crude mining were not to

This seemed the turning point downward
ror him. Two jears later two warehouses

No Insurance protected him, and the finan

ing no longer the heart for conceiving or
carrying forward enterprises of magnitude,
he fell back upon his profession of dentistry
It seemed that his only Interests in thesj
declining years were In poetry. He wrote
much, and conceived a poem on the crea
tion of th world, which Is epic In Its scope.
Tbe mystical title of this Is "The Light
Before the Dawn." It embodies the. crea
tion as described in the Bible, but surrounds
the events transcribed in the Holy Book
with philosophical interpretations poeticallj
expressed. The Medieval Chair.
This unique chair Is the result of forty
five jears" experience In the Investigation
and design of every type of furniture, and
the Medieval Chair possesses features com
mon to none other. The characteristics
which make it a noelty ore two imnro'.e

and adjustable reclining back, either of
which can be arranged independent of any

The back is net hinged as i the Morris

This chair is displaced in the large Bread

CHRISTMAS DULL FOR
MANY IH GERMANY.
Half Million Laborers Are Unem
ployed Thousands of Foreign
ers Are Discharged.
Berlin. Dec. a This is a gloomy Christy
mas in Germans. Half a million persons
are unemployed, and the consequent
wretchedness darkens' the holidays. Even,
the well-to-do are most Indifferent. They
are unable to avoid perceiving the mlsery
of the cellar-dwellers of Berlin, while of
ficial reports from eiry part of the Em
pire Indicate that extraordinary demands
are being made on the poor funds and pil
vate agencies for the relief ot the desti
tute. Several new charitable societies have been
organized in Berlin, and three or four times
more than the usual holiday contributions
to tho poor have been distributed, yet the
distress seems scarcely diminished. Tho
municipal coumll? of Cologne. Stuttgart,
Lelpslg. Berlin and other cities are discuss
ing the question of municipal aid without
reaching anything very definite. The
Provincial Government of Qicsbaden has
determined to distribute relief from the
Provincial Treasury.
One amelioration of the situation, upon
which both trades unions and employers are
agreed. Is the dismissal of foreign laborers,
many thousands of whom. Czechs, Poles,
Italians and Russians, obtained work in
Germany during the boom period. The Gov
ernment approves or the dismissal of these
men. and of giving preference to Germans.
The manager of the great Laura Iron
Works in Silesia, in discharging SCO foreign
workmen, said the authorities had advised
taking this step. Other large establishments
nave taxen tne same course, and the ducal
Government of Anhalt has discharged and
expelled from the duchy all foreign laborers
in the Government establishments. Expul
sions of foreigners by the local authorities
have occurred In other parts of Germany.
The census of the unemployed In Berlin
shows that 08.073 persons are out of work
here. The Socialists In Interpellating tbe
municipal government on this subject this
week said the number would be 80.000 after
the Christmas work was over. The Burgo
master said he. believed this estimate was
excessive.

SELECTING CHRISTMAS GIFTS.
Aloe's New Store Headquarters for
Holiday Shoppers.
The problem of gift-selecting Is promptly
solved by a visit to the A. S. ALOE-CO..

In St. Louis. It Is difficult to imagino a gift
more acceptable and Inspiring than a beau
tiful picture. There is certainly nothing
that appeals so strongly to the recipient
and Is so constant a reminder of the donor.
The very word "Picture" brings to mind
the pictures on the walls In the home of
our youth and thElr happy associations.
Can you think of a more appropriate gift?
Mr. George F. Heffernan. who is In
charge of the picture department of the
A. S. ALOE-CO.. In making his preparations
for this season's trade secured the most
magnificent collsctlon of pictures lit St

ject, style and make, ranging in price from
CO cents to JSOO.
The Picture Department of the A. a.

rest of their beautiful stock. This store is
