Or. B. Clarke Hyde Shown to be a Cruel
Monster of Criminality.
MANY CRIMES CHARGED
Against Him l>y the State, in its
^ A rriitiriuiieilt of tile One
[. r.
Respectable Physician.?He Was
Abnormally CYiicl, Torturing Women
and Animals, Then Murderer.
Picturing Dr. 13. C. Hyde as a man
whose evil propensities led him during
his boyhood to torture animals,
In later life to abuse the poor and
helpless, and in the fullness of professional
success to conceive the most
colossal murder plot in the history
of criminality. Attorney James A.
Reed made the opening statement
k for the State in the physician's trial
at Kansas City Monday.
Hyd'e is charged with poisoning
his wife's father and members of his
family so as Mrs. Hyde would inherit
al'l the wealth of her father. In
leading up to the motive which the
State claims caused the alleged murders
to be committed, Mr. Heed explained
an overpowering greed for
money had manisfestcd itself in Dr.
Hyde.
With a purpose of adding to his
wealth, said Mr. Reed, the physician
made love to women and then obtained
money from them. The deaths
of Col. Thomas H. and Chrisman
Swope and of James Moss Hunton
were dealt with in detail.
The charges that Dr. Hyde was
responsible for the spread of typhoid
fever in the Swopo house, and that
on three occasions he tried to poison
Miss Margaret Swope, composed a
considerable part of the address.
T.he story of Col. James H. Hunton's
death was made a little more
clear. According to the statement,
Dr. G. T. Twyman protested against
Dr. Hyde treating Hun ton to such an
extent as he did. Dr. Hyde was indicted
for negligently killing Hunton
by bleeding.
"The charge that brings the defendant
to this bar of justice is that
of .having with deliberation, premeditation
and cold and calculating purpose
murdered one of 'Missouri's distinguished
citizens, the kinsman of
his wife, a benefactor to him," said
Mr. Heed in opening his address.
The proper investigation of this
charge compels, the State believes,
delving into a series of crimes each
of w.hich is a part and parcel of a |
gigantic scheme of criminality, an
investigation of a sequence of lawinvading
wrongs so far-reaching, so
tremendous and ruthless In its conception
and partial execution, as to
challenge the horror and astonishment
of the world and to stand without
parallel in the annals of crime.
Earlier in .his address Mr. Rc3ed
dwelt at some length upon the introduction
of Dr. Hyde into the Swope
famIiy Mrs. swope, wnen iiiipuiimied
by the physician to give .him the
hand of her daughter, started an
investigation of the physician and
thus said the attorney, Hyde's character
was first shown to her In its
true light.
Regarding the inquiry, he said:
"Her investigation disclosed the fact
that, he was possessed of abnormally
cruel tendencies; that as a boy he
tortured animals, a characteristic
which man if sted itself when as a
man and a physician he held the position
of city surgeon and in thatposition
he so demeane 1 himself toward
the unfortunate pauper patients that
fell to .his charge that he was discharged
for cruelties.
"The specific occassion for his disdischarge
was the injection of oil of
..r.4..,..i in-* l.nHv of *i 11 iin for
ill ( I l) 1(1 i 11 1 I i IV/ lliu k/V/V? j vy t V*.. .
tunate woman who was in his charge
as police surgeon.
"Mrs. Swope's further efforts
disclosed upon his part an abnormal
longing for money. In the gratification
of his desire, though in reasonably
good practice, lie made love
to women and under the guise of a
sweetheart obtained from thorn large
sums of money, amounting to thousands
of dollars. It transpired also
that he had been a grave robber."
The deaths in the household were
taken up chronologically, Mr. Reed
attempting to show that l)r. Hyde
had planned his conquest of the
wealth of the Swope heirs with cunning.
Th?? first step, according to Mr.
Iteed, was to do away with Hunt m,
an executor of the Swope estate, and
then get poscssion himself. Therefor,
said Reed, the physician drew
two quarts of blood from 11 union's
body after he had been stricken hv
apoplexy and in four minutes llun r*r?
war dead.
"Within an hour after Ilunton died
he requested Miss Kollar, a nurse,
to intercede with Col. Swope," said
Reed, "to the end that he, Hyde,
he made executor in Hunton's place.
T.his was declined by iMIss Kollar."
Details of Col. Swope's death were
then entered into. It was rehearsed
how, at the order of Dr. Hyde, Miss
Kollar gave Col. Swope a capsule.
Convulsions ensued. Again at Hyde's
orders a hypodermic injection was
given. Death fol'owed. Having completed
the .history of the case to this

OHIO LEGISLATIVE COMMITTEE
SO 1IE PORTS.
?
Says Prices Paid the Farmer Are
Heat Down While Prices to Retailers
Are Raised l'p.
Ohio food consumers are at the
mercy of the trusts says a report of
tlio food probe committee appointed
by the Ohio Legislature to investigate
the cause of .high prices. The
committee says:
"The responsibility for high prices
lies chiefly at the door of the packers,
who beat down the prices paid
to the farmer and put up the prices
paid by the retailers.
"Storage refriegeration and speculation,
the packers, the exporter
and the pricemaker are the principal
conditions and causes responsible
for high prices."
It is declared that there are 50,000
trusts in America, Including associations
of dealers and simular organizations,
and all have contributed
to the advanced cost of living.
The report goes on to say:

manufacturer or some association.
The retailer's profit on trust-made
goods is reduced so low that he is
forced to overcharge on other commodities
or give short weights.'
The federal tariff law is attcked
as sheltering monopolies. Increase
in food production could not benefit
-cither city people or wage earners
those w.ho suffer moet from

poin's out, because the laboring peoples
wages are under trust control.
If th re were au increase in production,
it is asserted, the trusts would
simply reap greater profits by selling
more and paying loss to the producers.
Jn 14 years all prices have advanced,
according to the committee,
at least CI per cent., as against an
increae in wages of 4 0 per cent.
PUIiMC SEKVICK COMMISSION'.
Governor* Appoints McDonald, Riggs
and Rnysor.
Th-e Governor Monday appointed
Attorney J. E. McDonald, of Winnsboro;
Prof. William Riggs, of Clemson;
and ex-Senator Thomas M. Raysor,
of Orangeburg, to constitute the
new public service commission under
the act of the Legislature giving such
a board authority to fix the maximum
gas, water and electric rates
throughout the State. Charleston,
Marion, Spartanburg, Union and
Conway are exempted. The commission^
decisions are reviewable in tbc
circuit court.
point, Mr. Rood Raid:
"The foregoing evidence might he
said to be the first evidential chap
tor that makes plain the plan and
scheme of I)r. Hyde to accomplish an
acquisition of a large pa t of tho
Swope fortune.
The next testimony that will he introduced
will he indicative of tin?
fact that the next move in th -? carrying
out of this plan and purp?s1
was to remove as many mombors of
the Swope family as might he t > the
end that the fall of oae.h would swell
the fiortur*o that he, through his
wife, would be able to control."
A lengthy reeital of how I)r. Hyde
obtained tvp.hoid and diptheria
germs of Dr. E. L. Stewart and the
appearance of typhoid fever in the
Swopo residence followed. This typhoid
could not have come from the
water used, it was said, because the
water came from a cistern and was
well filtered. It was on the occassion
of Dr. Hyde's taking dinner with
the Swopo family on November 2f>
that lie is thought to have spread
the g1 ring, it was said.
The alleged attempt of Dr. Hyde
to poison Margaret Swope was then
taken up. Mr. Rood said:
"One night while the girl was supposed
to he almost recovered from
typhoid, a nurse learned that Hyde
had given her a hypodermic injection.
"When asked why he had made
the injection, Hyde replied that he
had only given oil of camphor for
intermittent pulse. Miss Swope de
nied the p.hysician felt her pulse and
the nurse found no odor like oil of
champlior.
"A sore has recently developed
upon the girl's arm and the State
believes it is due to the physician's
injection of some of the germs .he obtained
from Dr. Twyman into this
member.
"A few days after tlvo injection incident,
Dr. Hyde loft a capsule
among the medicines belonging t(
the girl. A nurse administered tin
capsule. Miss Swope was sei/;*.l witV
convulsions. An examination of tiu
contents of her stomach showed il
to be strychnine."
A significant feature of that Keet'.on
of the sta'ement which re'err ?!
10 Hyde's purchasing poison was tlu

The injured are: Ed Palmer, n a>l
clerk, of Memphis; Engineer McKeer,
of'McComhirty, Miss.; Fireman E. A..
Ames, of MoCombrity,, Miss; Baggagemaster
G. G. Farrell.
TJie wreck was caused by the engine
leaving the track and plunging
down a fifteen-foot embankment,
carrying with it the baggege car,
mail, library car and two Pullmans.
The remainder of the train remained
on the track. The wreckage caught
fire and the bodies of the dead mail
clerks were cremated.
Col. Wm. C. Crane, of New Orleans,
w.ho was officer of the day
during the recent Snriner drills at
New Orleans, was on the train and
organized a relief crew, taking the
passengers out through the windows.
Procuring fire extinguishers from
the mail car, Mr. Crane and .his fellow
passengers played streams on the
flames in an effort to rescue the mail
clerks, but without any effect on the
tire.
A few of the passengers sustained
minor bruises, but none were
seriously injured. It is said Supt. Hill
ii.' other division c tib ials w:io have
Iwn making ?. n investigation, are
convinced that the train was deliberately
wrecked and it is stated that
special agent of the company have
secured a clue to the guilty parties.
The cause of the derailment was
the removal of several fleh plates at
rail joints. The train ran a distance
of eight rails from the point where
first loosed fish plate was found bebefore
it jumped the track. Bolts and
nuts bearing all evidence of having
been freshly unscrewed were picked
up along the track at daylight. A
rail wrench and bar was also picked
up by the side of the track.
The bodies of Mail Clerks Hot, Treloar
and Woods were recovered and
sent to Jackson to be prepared for
i burial. R. Ilowze was injured, but
not killed, as first reported.

That Is What Harvie Jordan Says
Tom Watson Is.
Harvie Jordan, former editor of
. the Cotton Journal, of Atlanta, announces
his intention of appearing at
once before Fulton county's grand
j jury and charging Tos. E. Watson,
i editor of the Jeffersonian, with libel.
, "I mean to press the charges
against Mr. Watson without delay,"
. said Mr. Jordan Monday, so, as the
, grand jury meets again Thursday, it
. is probable that Mr. Jordan's charges
, will be presented to it then.
Tn a recent issue of the Weekly
, Jeffersonian Mr. Watson made certain
charges against Mr. Jordan in
, connection with the Cotton Journal
and the Southern Cotton association.
In a letter dated Atlanta, April
10th, Jordan responded by a vigorous
denial of everything said by
Watson reflecting upon him, and
said ho proposed to present Watson's
"slanderous accusations to the Ful|
ton county grand jury and make him
prove his charges or stand convicted

Republican Candidate Stood Pat.
A dispatch from Rochester, N. Y.,
says between 6,000 and 8,000 voters
of IMIonroe County changed from the
Republican to the Democratic column
Tuesday and elected the first
Democratic CongiCesman that has
represented the 32d district in 2 0
years. James S. Havens, a Democrat,
running on a tariff reform platform,
defeated George W. Aldridge,
for a score of years the ruler of the
county Republican organization, by
5,900 votes.
Monroe County, which comprises
the 32d Congressional district, is
normally Republican by about 6,t
000. James B. Perkins, whose death
| in the middle of his third Congressional
term necessitated a special
election Tuesday, carried the district
in 1908 by 10,167 votes. Taking the
vote of the Presidential year, 1908,
for comparison, the total turnover
of the district was 8,03 3.
It is acknowledged, however, that
Dnrtin'o mtp in that vear was
I*i I . i v; i iv i n v* . >yVv v.
abnormal, and accepting the average
Republican plurality as a standard,
the change from the Republican
to the Democratic columns
amounts to aboHt 6,000.
Havens had hi rayed againt him
one of the strongest political organizations
in the -State. Yet in a campaign
lasting but seventeen days, and
with a hastily constructed machine
he accomplished one of the most remarkable
overturns in political history.
The result of the election takes
its place beside the Democratic victory
in the 14th Massachusetts district,
where Eugene N. Foss was sent
to Congress from a district supposed
to be as roekribbed Republican as
this one.
Mr. Haven's platform advocated
tariff reform in the interests of the
consumer, revision of the duties on
wool and woolen goods, a removal of
the tax on hides and lumber, a removal
of the tariff on iron ore, an
income tax ami iinany, am ui;ulilift c.s |
inadmissible all political losses of
any party.
Mr. Aldridge, his opponent, contented
himself with general proclamations
in favor of the policies of
the Republican Administration. On
the tariff proposition he was regarded
as a stand-patter.
The Democrats acknowledged that
one of the main factors in the reversal
of political sentiment was a
personal issue raised by Aldridge's
record as a party boss and evidence
presented at the recent fire insurance
investigation. Mr. A Id ridge acknowledged
that he received a $ 1 ,000
check, but said he turned the
money into the treasury of the Republican
organization.
This so-called niroal issue was taken
up by the citizens, and clergymen
announced themselves in Havens
favor. Mr. Aldridge's defense

was tlint nis recoru siuuu iwi ..ox...
The overturn in the city was from
a Republican plurality of 6,215, in
tlic Congressional elections of 1908,
to a plurality for Havens of 3,74 6.
The towns, which in 1908 went Republican
by 3.972, gave Havens a
plurality of 2,154.

General Boyd's opinion of Colonel
Brock is intimated in an advertisement

Colonel Brock is absent on

that he is loaded with a large battery
of explosives for his chief, and
the atmosphere is expected to become

future.
In the meantime Colonel Henry T.

race for adjutant general. lie has
scores of friends in every section of

of the strongest Republican districts
in the state of New York, or in
fact, in the whole country, are already
talking Habens for governor
this fall. Judging from the conservative
tenor of the successful candidate's
remarks, however, he accepts
his victory as bearing little on the
political situation in the State except
as regards the issue of "bossism.."
"This is not wholly a partisan victory,"
said Havens. "It is a victory
over the things for which Cannon
has stood and for the ideals which
Governor Hughes typifies.
The Hughes Republicans declare
that although Haven's election shows
that the people of the district are
dissatisfied with Hie tariff policy of
Uie Republican national administration
and with the political control of
George W. Aldridge, Havens' defeated
opponent, the result entrenches
Governor Hughes and his policy
more strongly than ever.
According to Mr. Havens, the high

for Tuesday's political revolution.
Revised returns from the towns reduce

the figures 5,440 for the district.
