She will leave for Washixfgton at 3:25 o'clock this after- noon. She was loudly cheered by a crowd of 2,000 persons as she left the prison. ' Her release was made at the in- stance of District Attorney Jerome, who said he did not believe another trial would result other than in a dis- agreement. At the same time he do- clared that there had been a serious miscarriage of justice. He said many of the newspapers had labored to create sympathy for theglrl and that this case had “caused one more step in this county toward trial by news- paper rather than trial by jury." He approved of all his assistant Mr. Rand had done or said in con- _ ducting the case and added: “The people for whom I care approve our action. From the same part of the community we have received nothing but fairness. l have information that admits of no doubt that there was unanimity In the jury room on three points: First, Morgan Smith bought , the pistol; second, Nan Patterson took the pistol in the call with her; third, Caeser Young did not commit sui- cide. I ask that the prisoner be dis- charged on her own recognizance." in his address to Recorder Goff. preceding his recommendation for Miss Patterson’s discharge, District ,Attorney Jerome l ,. i defended his assistant, Mr. Wyhe declared the attacks upbn’h 'g chief of states he termed Mr. Rand, were "wilful and mendaoions,” and that though madeby hismprofeasionul. '1. he considered them unjust in the ex- treme. He would that be“ upheld Mr. Read in» everything that he did: during the trials, andconsldel‘ed his conduct of the case an exhibition of bravery on his part. Mr. Jerome also criticized the news- papers for their statements about the expense of the case, declaring that they had made “gross misrepresenta- tions of the cost of the trials," and that the accounts of “enormous ex- penditures flaunted before the public" were erroneous. He said that his own . auditor had made an estimate of the case, which did not exceed $8,000. As Miss Patterson left the court room she was met at the threshold by her father, who threw his arms around her and exclaimed: “Thank God, my daughter." She was driven in a carriage to her lawyers' office in the World building, where she re~ mained a short time. When she left another outburst of cheering and hand- ciapping by a crowd greeted her. She then went to the St. Paul Hotel, where she had lived before Young's death. J. Morgan Smith and his wife, Mrs. Julia Smith, Nun Patterson's sister, were discharged from custody by Judge Foster today. Both had been held on a charge of conspiracy in connection with the Patterson case. ' As soon as he was discharged, Smith was re-arrested on an attach— ment for failing to obey a subpoena issued by the. grand jury and was committed to tho Tombs prison for examination on Tuesday next. Counsel for Smith said he would make application before the Supreme Court today fci a writ of hubeas cor- pus to free him. District Attorney Jerome replied that he would do what he could to aid him, and Judge Cowing, upon signing the order for commitment of‘ Smith, said he was also agreeable, anti if he had erred in any way, the Supreme Court would adjust the matter, SPECIAL SALE!

FINANCIAL LOSSES FROM THE TORNADO Will Probably Exceed $200,- 000, While the Loss oi Life Will he in Excess of 100 SNYDER, Okia., May lit—it is esti- mated that the teat loss of life caus- ed by the tornado of Wednesday night will be somewhat in excess of too pensions. Those who have investi- gated still maintain that the property loss will not be less than half a mil- lion dollars. A partial list of property losses is as follows: 13, C. Burnett, cotton gin, less 314,- 000. Thomas Wagner, cotton gin. $14,000. Twenty-five dwellings on the north side of the ’h‘risco tracks and west of E street, of an average value of $300 each, either damaged or demol- lshed. Among the number were some residences worth much more. The value given is taken to be a fair aver- age. The damage to other butldlngsaand residences exceeds $100,000. ' - The 'P‘rfsco Railroad, from the de- pot to the limits of corporation in each direction is strewn with timbers. pieces of brick and stone and other things cast there by the storm. lt lcqulred considerable work to clear the tracks. Pitable scenes of want and suffering were seen here today. Mitch confusion still existed, despite the efforts of hun- dreds of outsiders to aid the victims of Wednesday night's tornado. Last night many who had lost their all went hungry and unprotected front the cold. Many bodies lying In temporary morgues remained unidentified, while among the injured dozens who suffer. ed from wounds or broken limbs were without proper medical attention. Oth- ers were still missing and an exact list of the casauities was not to be had. Today rescuers continued their search in the wreckage for victims, in response to Governor Ferguson's re quest to the people of Oklahoma to tender immediate aid, carloads of pro visions, clothing tents, bedding and medicines began to arrive and with them came persons from all directions to render aid. The most serious prob- lem today was the immediate housing of the homeless and the providing of medical care for the injured. Physi- cians and surgeons have worked at a disadvantage because of lack of house room and insufficient facilities. ‘ All night two dozen men worked in- cessantly, preparing the bodies of the victims for burial, and today dozens 0i funerals were held. All day long crude hearses passed through the wreck littered streets. . Poorly clad men, women and chu- dren, facet of whom had suffered from wounds and hunger, wandered about trying to find some aliasing loved one, or went from morgue to morgue in an endeavor to Identify them among the dead.

The burglarugang, comprising Henry Schultz, Charles Slavlu, Ont-is Nevnies and Frank Boenische, which tried to loot the summer resilience of Nelson Taylor at Cal! Pasture Benoit last winter, was up for trial. Henry Schultz went to state prison for not less titan one your nor more than two years. Charles Slavlu went to the county jail for seven months. and Nevilles. who turned state evi— dence, was allowed to go. The case of lloenlhche has already been settled by ills arrest as a deserter from the United States navy. Slavin, though the one to enter the house, armed with a big club and ran- sack it, received only a light sen- tence. He put up a great plea of previous good character, which seem- ed to influence the judge. The Bridge. port morning paper prints the fol- lowing account, which may be inter- eating: Charles Slavin represents the case of a young man who went wrong from LVII associations, forgot for a night his home. forgot the gray haired fa- ther and the mother into whose hands he had upon every pay day be- fore handed the whole of his wages. He was not a bad boy in any sense of the term prior to February Ill: this was admitted by the state in atl~ perlor criminal court yesterday, but upon that date the good reputation of the past 23 years was sacrificed in T'burglary into which it seems he was led by others. Two were captured and two escaped. With the boy was Henry Schultz, who. although only a year his senior, has served nine months for a previous burglary and '30 days for another offense, and whose general appearance in court yester« lay denoted the. tough and youth of :rlmlual instinct. The four young men visited a place a East Norwaik on the night of Feb- :unry 13. According to the statements made by the state in court yesterday, Ind confessed to by the prisoners, on- .rflnt'e was effected and property stol- en. It did not, however, appear that young Siavin went. into the premises or that he received any of the spoils. in fact It was asserted that he did not know what was taken until after his arrest for complicity in the ,burg- lary. His trouble consisted solely of his being in bud' company. The stuff taken was of trivial value. slavin's father and mother, by re- quest of the court; made statements In his behalf. Both declared that he had been a good boy up to that time. had always given his mother his wages. was home nights, and his fam- ily did not understand how he could naVu gotten into this scrape. it was iIlOWn that he had previously held )ositlons of trust. In one instance he had been in the habit of depositing money for an employer at bank, ”ind had also been a sheriff's keeper for an officer in South Norwalk upon level-oi occasions where attachments and been matte. Never before had he been unfaithful to any trust. So impressed was Judge Reed by the previous good character of the acting man that he let him off with a seven months’ jail sentence. while Schultz was “reprimanded by the lOIil‘t, who also expressed the hope that he also might reform, and to enable him to‘ do so the court gave him a state prison sentence of two years maximum and one year mini- mum, ' Henry Johnson who broke open a tool box, and etc o a number of tools from some men in the employ of Con- .ractor Alfred J. Dooley, at Tokcnelte. on May 3, went to jail for four .nonths. Henry Williams, who burglnrlzml Horace R. Nash‘s store in North Main street, was sent to jail for nine months, He pleaded guilty to the charge. , Michael Lubey, on old offender, who was one of. the four men to no brutal- ly assault John Malone recently, was also up for trial, but be got off with the light sentence of nine months in the county jail. He was charged-with theft. from the person of John Malone, committed on April 27, in this city. but the state, after a thorough inves- tigation of the facts, became convinc- ed that Lubey did not rob Malone. but‘ wea'nne of the three men who assault- ed him .upon the date in question. when 08.60 was taken from him. after he was knocked to the ground and punched severely by the gang. it was laid in father‘s favor that lie-caution- ed the others not to hurt Malone, and that be was not personally acquainted with the other two men.

ST, PETERSBURG, May 12.——The admirality declines to divulge any in- formation which it has about the, ships of the Vladivostok division which are reported to be off the coast of Japan. but the impression prevails in naval circles that, acting under the instruct-.- tions of Vice Admiral Rojestvensky they have passed through Tsugaru Straits into the Pacific on a recon- naissance to ascertain. if the passage is free of mines and feasible for R0- jcstvensky's squadron and also to threaten Japanese commerce. All the Russian naval divisions now in the Far East are acting under Rojestven- sky's orders. " M. Vronski, the military expert of the Novoe Vrcmya, explains that the failure of Field Marshal Oyama to undertake an advance as well as the failure of the Japanese to send an expendition to the island of Sakha- lein are due to the appearance of Ree jestvcnsky‘s squadron in Chinese wa- tars. “In his hands now is the destiny of the Far East,“ the paper says; “may (Tori grant him success." The Steve reproacbes the Imperial Guard for not going to the front, say- ing: “its, place is on the battlefield. in all Russia's wars the Guard has won glory. it is composed of the picked men of the empire and should show the world what Russia can do."
