Moose Ala DaTVHon Sufferers.
Moose men have been following the
teachings of the order in a practical
way at Dawson, N. M., the scene of
the coal mine disaster. C. G. Reum,
national director ofthe Moose, is at
Dawson caring for the families of the
Moose men who were lost in the awful
accident there. He has. written a let
ter to Dr. F. P. Miller, dictator of
the El Paso lodge, saying that Moose
heart, the home for the members and
families of Moose In Virginia, has
been opened to the widows and orphans
of the men who belonged to the order
and who lost their lives in the mine
explosion. He says that at least six
members of the Dawson lodge have
been lost in the mine and that many
left wives and families. One woman
was left with three little children to
care for and her condition is a seri
ous one because of an impending op
eration. She had just lost her mother
and one of her daughters by death
and she was sent to the Mooseheart for
medical care, and the little children
were also sent there find -will be
cared for by the lodge. Mr. Reum
says that there are other cases similar
to this one, and that the Moose lodge
and the local officers have been given
instructions to draw on the supreme
lodge for any financial aid he needs
to assist the suffering.

WILL GIVE ALL A

Commissioner Collier "Will Hear From

Adopting the Rates.
Austin, Tex Nov. 8. Before final
action is taken by commissioner of In

adoption of the rates to be put into
effect under the employers compen

nounces that he will give every In

Under the law, the commissioner has
the right to accept or reject any rates

their protests or oppose the action of

Soldiers Guard Pallid Prisoner, Who Awaits Sentence;
Town Is Practically Under Martial Law; Four Sen
sational Pleas Made to Save Man Accused
of ' 'Blood Ritual Murder."
KIEV, Russia, Nov 8. Events moved
quickly today in the last session
of the Beilis trial. Within 24
hours Mendel Beilis will know his fate;
but what is of much greater importance,
Judaism wfll learn whether "the black
lie widen has so often made itself red
with blood" still sways mortal belief.
Four remarkable speeches for the de
fence were concluded shortly before 9
oclock tonight, after which prosecutor
Wipper said a last word to the jury.
AH that now remains is the summing
Hp by the court and the formal attention
of questions for the jury. The verdict
is expected by Sunday night. .
Soldiers Arrive Secretly.
A cloud of pessimism hangs over the
city. The streets are filled with ex
cited persons disrassing the latest news
from the court house. Soldiers are to
be seen everyw!rre, mounted pickets be
ing stationed in the principal thorough
fares ready to net at the slightest signs
of trouble. During the night three regi
ments of soldiers arrived secretly, being
distributed over the city. They are be
ing held in the background, so as not to
inflame the already excited peasants.
Determined efforts are being made by
the "black hundred" to institute a pro
gram, hut the government seems deter
mined that there shall be none.
Court Scenes Thrilling.
The scenes in court today were most
thrilling. Fearing an attempt to attack
Beilis, the police court ordered that five
soldiers, instead of two or three, guard
the prisoner. With drawn swords they
formed a half circle around Beilis, who,
as the trial draws to a close, shows the
effect of the fearful strain under which
he has been laboring for the past two
years.
What was looked upon as a happy
omen by friends of the accused man
occurred soon after Beilis had taken his
accustomed seat. The sky, which, for
the last few days had been dull and
heavy, suddenly cleared and through a
window opposite the prisoner's stand
bright rays of sunshine poured, encircling
him after the fashion of a stage lime
light. Soldiers Among Snectators.
The court was crowded to suffbeation
and the heat was so terrific that, in
order to guard against demonstration or
possible violence, soldiers were plenti
fully sprinkled among the spectators.
Even the press gallery, where Beilis
finds his warmest sympathizers, was un
der martial supervision.
When court reconvened this morning,
Mr. Grossenberg continued his address
for the defence. In masterful manner
he dissected the evidence for and against
Beilis and gave a description of the boy
Yushinisky, who, he elaimed, had been
murdered by a gang of criiaiBals. In
concluding he said:
Pleads1 for Beilis.
"Jurymen. I am here on behalf of hu
manity, civilization and truth to refate
an abominable lie, a relie of the days of
black magic, a cruel baseless libel on
Judaism. I am a Jew, but was I not
brought up among you Christians?
"Did I not share your lives, your ideas,
your thoughts? I solemnly declare that
should the idea ever occur to me that I
I! TRIftL
Till UK rats
belong to a race that uses your blood for
religious purposes I would not hesitate
one moment to give up that religion.
"Centuries ago not only Jews, but
Christians, died for their religion, and
should you send Mendel Beilis to Siberia
for 20 yeare I am sure he will go like
others before him, who suffered for their
religious faith, with those dear words
mentioned by one of the prosecutor's
experts on his lips, 'Shma Israel Adonay
Aloanu Adonay Eehod.' "
When Grossenberg resumed his seat
there was a scattering volley of hand
clapping and applause whieh was sternly
repressed by the soldiers.
Newspapermen Pay Compliment
A great compliment was paid the elo
quent address by the newspaper men,
who immediately after he had concluded,
his address, sent to Grossenberg's little
son in St. Petersburg a telegram of con
gratulations on "'Is father's great speech.
Following Grossenberg came Mr. Sa
roundy, who in a two hours address
dealt "with the expert testimony, paying
particular attention to the Russian
orthodox priest, Pranaitis, whose testi
mony, he declared, he recoiled on the
head of the prosecutor for daring to put
such an "expert" iorward.
Sever Heard of "Talmud Tora."
Saroundy showed that prosecutor Wip
per himself knew nothing of Jews or
Judaism, instancing the fact that he
had never heard of the "Talmud Tora,"
which is an institution actually author
ized by the Russian government itself.
Saroundy, who was listened to with,
rapt attention, concluded:
"I appeal to you, gentlemen of the
jury, with God's help to guide you, do
not add another innocent human sacri
fice to the altar of superstition and dark-
Undoubtedly the most eloquent and
telling speech of the day was made by
Mr. Karabtscersky, who. after explaining
ia simple language the duties and respon
sibilities of the jurymen, analyzed tha
points of evidence pro and cob, insisting
there was nothing addueed to justify
even a suspicion against Beilis.
One point which he made with draj
static effect had reference to a state
ment of the prosecution that five tum
blers of blood had been draws from thr
veins of the murdered boy.
