) THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY o= 25, PETERSON MYSTERY DEEPENS Further Evidence that Bervaat Girl Died by Violenos, PHYSICIANS COMPLETE AN EXAMINATION Detectives Expect to Unearth Some Interesting Evidence Before the Coroner's Jury~Injuries Could Not Have Reaulted from Fall, The physiclans who conducted the post- morten examination upon the body of Mary Peterson, the domestic who was found dead Monday morning in the home of J. 8. Collins, 1711 Burt street, where she was employed, are prepared to testify at the in- quest to be held today that the woman came to her death as the result of a blow or blows received upon the face and fore- head. The doctors have r.ade an informal re- port to the coroner, which s to the effect that the injuries she received could not have been caused by her falling forward upon ber face. The report also says that the blows were delivered before death, which fact is established by the black- and-blue appearance of the bruises. The report, in substance, follows: “Mary Peterson dled of a truamatic fn- jury of the nose and frontal sinus, causing & severe concussion of the brain. It s mot lkely that such injuries could have been caused by her fall.” The post-mortem examination which was n progress all day Monday disclosed the fact that the woman's nose was broken, and that there a clot of blood upon the brain just back of the base of the nose. This evidently had been caused by a blow. The heart, liver, lungs and all other vital organs wero in normal condition. The fact that the woman's tongue was lacerated though chewed led to the supposition that she might have taken poison, and for this reason the stomach was removed and is now in the laboratory of Dr. W. R. Laven- der, who as subjected it to an examination. He says he can detect the presence of no noxious substance. Monday afternoon two detectives were detailed on the case and Tuesday the force was doubled. Sergeant Welsenburg, Detectives Mitchell and Heltfeld and officer Davis are now investigating it. It is under- stood that the father of the woman's un- born child {s known to the pollce and that an arrest may be expected within the next twelve hours, The body has been embalmed and inter- ment will be deferred until after the in- quest, that the jurors may have an oppor- tunity to examine the wounds that caused death. Two brothers of the deceased arrived in the city yesterday morning. They are Axtel Poterson of Brookline, Ia., and C. H. Peter- son of Monida, Mont. In referring to the death of his sister, Axtel Peterson said: “1 can't understand how she could have recelved those injuries by simply falling forward upon her face, as the carpet would have broken the force of the fall. And be- sides, the wounds are so distributed over her face that they could not have been made by falling upon & flat surface. I am satls- fled that she has met with some foul play, but until I have investigated the matter further I don't care to discuss it in detall. All that I can say now is that the case re- quires further fnvestigation. It was learned from the brothers that the Aead woman was 29 years old. Her parents are still in Sweden and she has three brothers and three aunts in the United Stailes. The other brother lives at Rock- ford, 111, but they have not been able to locate his street address as yet. Mary Peterson had lived in Omaha since 1894 and had been in the employ of Mr, Colllns singe 1807, Among those who viewed the body yes- terday was Miss Maria Holnass, president of the Scandinavian Young Woman's Chris- tlan Assoclation of America, 2018 Davenport stroet, of which the deceased was a charter member. Miss Holnass speaks in the highest terms of the dead woman. She was in con- sultation with the officers and detectives for an hour this morning and, it is under- stood, gave them information which will enable them to work intelligently on the case. It was learned that the deceased was on confidental terms with Miss Holnass and that the latter will make some interesting disclosures at today's inques The funeral will be at 2 o'clock this after- noon from the coroner's rooms; interment in Mount Hope cemetery. Eight Hundred Deaths in Bombay., BOMBAY, Feb. 26.—There have been 600 deaths in Bombay City during the last two days. Of this number 400 were due to bu- bonie plague. —_— GOT HER COFFEE.

A communica- tion read to the councilmen named seven or eight large buildings in which the heating plants are operated by unlicensed men Edward Augustine, Harry Eaton and the other members of the committee were re- quested to attend the general committee meeting of the council next Monday after- noon, when they will be given an oppor- tunity to explain thelr grievances. Mean- time the communication will remain in the hands of the committee on judiclary. Mayor Moores recommended that W. B. Whitehorn, W. G. Shriver and Charles L. Thomas be named as appraisers to put price on all property owned by the city. The names of the committee were referred to the committee on judiclary. Councilman Hascall introduced a resolu- tlon providing that all bills be sworn to and audited by the council before they are included in an ordinance. The resolution was referred to the committee on finance. An ordinance was passed which requires that the clerk of the police court shall furnish a boud of $5,000. The name of Dorcas street, botween Twenty-seventh and Thirty-second streets, was changed to Ed Creighton avenue. An ordinance was iutroduced which pro- vides for the regulation of licenses to be pald by peddlers of cooked refreshments. Refreshment wagons are to pay $50, $40 and $30 a year, according to thelr size, and peddlers who have no vehicles are to pay $15 a year. Gas lamps were ordered at the corner of Twenty-second and Izard streets and at the corner of Twenty-third and Nicholas streets. Dan Shanahan notified the council that he will expect the city to pay him $300 for personal injuries which he claims to have sustained on a walk at Twentieth and Vinton streets. Another claim for damages was filed by Willlam McDonald, who alleges that he sus- talned a. broken arm on an fey sidewalk near the corner of Sixteenth and Webster streets. A request was read from residents of West Omaha asking that an alley connect- ing Farnam and Harney streets be opened near Thirty-fifth street. MAY DRAW THEIR PAY NOW Salaries of Deputy County Attorneys Fixed by Judges of the Dise trict Court. ccupy The judges of the district court met yes- terday and fixed the salaries of the three deputy county attorneys at $1,200 per an- num ch. The deputies have mnot re- celved any pay since the beginning of the year on account of the objection to the allowance of their salaries made by County Commissioner Harte, who contended that they could not be paid until the amount of thelr compensation was fixed by the Judges. Mr. Harte's position has been sustained and the salaries will probably be ullowed at the next meeting of the county board. Judge Baker was authorized to call a meeting of the Douglas county bar for the purpose of adopting resolutions of respect for the late Judge W. 8. Strawn. SCHOOL- BOARD WINS OUT to Pat School Levy in Hands of Mayor and Council Indefinitely Postponed. The mayor and city councll of Omaha are not likely to have the power to fix the amount of the public school tax levy con- ferred upon them. At a meeting of the senate committee on public education held yesterday it was decided to indefinitely postpone consideration of the bill provid- ing that the mayor and council shall de- termine the amount of the school levy. Most of the meinbers of the house commit- tee were present at the meeting and they concurred in the action of the senate com- mittee. This indicates that the right to fix the local school levy will remain ex- clusively with the Board of Education. Frequent Coughing inflames the lungs. Foley's Honey and Tar stops the coughing and heals the lungs The ordinary cough medicines which are simply expectorants will not do this, they keep the lungs frritated in throwing oft the phlegm. Pertainin ation, meeting of the Real Estate At today exchange some indication will be given of the prospects of legislation affecting the real estate Interests of Omaha at the present session of the legislature. The committee of the exchange which wmet the house committee at moon yesterday will make its report and half a score of members of the exchange who formed the deputation will have something to say as to the sort of reception they were accorded. It will be remembered that the committes was appointed especially to enter a pros test against the bill proposing amendments to the Omaha charter by which the sal- aries of some of the city officials would be raised. 1t was fell, however, that if a committee of the exchange was to be fn Lincoln at all it might as well do a little promotion work in connection with other measures which are in line with the de- sire of the exchange to put the rights of owners and tenants, of buyers and sellers and of the agents themselves on the sound- est possible footing The members who went to Lincoln yes- terday morning on this -errand included: J. W. Lytle, chairman of the committe John N. Frenzer, J. W. Robbins, A. L. Reed, F. D. Wead, J. F. Flack, W. Farnam Smith and some others, and on the same train were Herman Kouutze and Henry W. Yates, representing some of the heavy property owners, who went to give thelr support to the arguments of the exchange. In addition to the discussion on leg- tslation which will be precipitated by the report of the committee, the matter of “uc- tion sales will again come before thy ex- change today. The auctions commitice may ask for another week to decide uyon its report and it may request more definite instructions on the question of public bid- Qing. This is a point on which there is a strong line of leverage, which appears to be based on the position of different agents. Some of those who have been longer In the business, or who from other reasons have a large number of properties on their list which they would like to put upon the auction block, favor the free admission of the public; while those who are less likely to have praperty to sell would like to wllow only members of the exchange to take part in the bidding. Another point that is ratber complicating the situation is the question of & license. 1t is realized that if the auction is to be & public one it will be negessary for the exchange to have an auctioneer's license, toward the cost of which each sale must in some wav contribute. As the simplest way of providing for this, it 1s urged that a small percentage of the commission on each sale should Ko to the exchange. This, howeyer, means just that much less for South Omaha News 30000000300 J. A, Beck, president of the Young Men's Republican club, has called a meeting of the club to be held on Thursday evening at the council chamber. The object 18 to re- organize the club and elect officers for the year. This club is one of the prominent political organizations in the city and every member Is urged to attend the called meet- ing. As for the officers to be elected there seems to be a feeling that Henry C. Murphy, as well president. known republican worker, at Lincoln most of the time and cannot work in hand, therefore he deems it best to announce that he cannot be a candidate for re-clection. While Mr. Beck has worked hard as president of the club, he thinks it better to step down and allow an- other man to be chosen for the place. Ono year ago Mr. Murphy was a candidate for the presidency of this club, but was beaten by Mr. Beck in a friendly contest. This year it is thought that there will be no op- position to Murphy. As soon as the work of reorganization is completed it is the intention of the mem- bers to start right in on the spring cam- paign and use every effort to elect repub- lcan councilmen and republican members of the Board of Education Sisty Years Ago. On Monday evening last the South Omaha lodges of Odd Fellows and Rebekas ten- dered a reception and banquet to Hon David Anderson, the oldest member. Deleo- gatlons of 0dd Fellows were present from Omaha, Papillion and Springfleld. Past | Master F. J. Etter acted master of ceremori<s and Colonel Samuel Gosney, B. T. Farnsworth and others spoke. The re marks were highly complimentary as to the standing in the community of Mr. In replying to the brief addresses Mr. An derson related experiences of sixty years ago. He sald in part: “Sixty years ago there were no cannon as ball' rallway tralns with large, elegant sleeping cars attached, speeding rapidly across the American continent at the rate of fifty miles an hour; there were no fast sailing steawships conveying the elite and wealthy citizens from New York to Liver | pool and Bremen in five to six days; there were no electric and cable street cars, and there were no gas and electric 1ight plants established to {lluminate our homes, streets and highways. “Sixty years ago Prof. Morse informed the American public that he had in- vented u system of telegraphy whereby a citizen of Philadelphia would be able to communicate with electricity with a citizen of New York city. He was at once pro- nounced a lunatic by 95 per cent of the people, but that fact did not dis- courage or prevent this man of sclence from perfecting and putting into operation the present useful telegraph system. There was no method of telephoning and the man who would have suggested such a ridiculous proposition would have been pronounced insane and placed In the same class with Prof. Morse. “Sixty years ago there were no sewing machines and but few musical Instru- ments; no patent reaper and binding ma- chines, mowing machines, horse rakes, rid- ing plows and cultivators or steam thresh- ing machines. There were no millionaires, no national banks, no professional tramps, no Coxey's armies. “Mammoth manufacturing plants, capi- talized with millions of dollars and employ- ing thousands of werkmen, were unknown. America did not, at that early period in its history, produce, manufacture and export to forelgn countries over one billion of its product, as was done in the last year. The industries, except agriculture and stack ralsing, were quite primitive. A few iron forges and a sprinkling of woolen and cot- ton mills were established in the larger water courses in Pennsylvania, New York and Massachusetts. The small plants usu- ally employed from seventy-five to 150 hands and their wages ranged from 50 cents to $1.75 per day of fourteen and fificen hours. At present the same class of labor commands from $1 to $6 per day of eight and ten hours.' Military Road ‘to Fort Crook. Rumor has it that sometime this sum- mer something will be done about macad- amizing Thirteenth street from Omaha to Fort Crook. When Congressman Mercer last talked about this matter here he as- serted that plans were shaping themselves for the work to be started sometime Luis year. Property owners in the eaetern part of the city are very anxious to nave the start made. It will be remembered that when the question was up before some of £ to Realty the agents, and, anyway, It ouly agents are to bid, the agent who buys must divide with the agent who sells. The question arises: Will there be enough in it to make it an object to either party? It {s the unanimous feeling that some inducement beyond the certainty of a sale must be held out to bring the sellers into the fleld. One party contends that this ob- Ject can best be reached by making the sales as free as possible, in the expectation that more buyers will attend and the bid- ding will be brisker, while the other party holds that fn order to secure a large at- tendance of buyers it will be necessary to give every agent an inducement to bring in clients. Attractive. “DId you ever notice that within recent years there has been a renewed Inclination among Omaha people to put their money into mines " This question was asked by one of the most active real estate men in Omaha the other day,” who had been appealed to by a client to sell some of his property in this city, because ho was needing cash. In this case the mining Investments were ap- parently not as profitable as in some others. 1t is well known that Montana copper Is yielding a large monthly fncome—estimated in the nelghborhood of $25,000—to an Omaha bank president and his son. Then E. W. Nash and Guy C. Barton have had a finger in the gold and silver ple of Mexico for elght or ten years past, from which they have drawn upward of & quarter of a mil- lion. Other capitalists are heavily inter- ested In properties near Chihuahua, Mex- ico, from which one of them alone s draw- ing wufficient to pay the salaries of half a hundred clerks. Apart from these instances, where a few individuals are getting large returns from mines which they practically own, there are hundreds of other Omaha people who are helping 1o develop properties in Wyoming, Colorado, Idaho, British Columbia and other places, which, in most cases, have not yet reached the point where they return any profits to those who have put their money into them. One of these concerns has expended over $60,000 In development. About $40,000 or $50,000 In ore has been taken out, but all of this has been put back into the properties, which have not yet reached the paying polnt. About a bundred Omahans have contrib- uted toward a sum of $24,000 that has been expended in the purchase of 200 acres in at southwestern Colorado, near the country of and Burt streets the clift-dwellers, and in building a plaut and prospecting. years, a five-hydraulic plant has been erected, rud the stockholders are hoping bave been all in ca 0000000000000 9000000000 | (1: citizens wanted the lower road through the present city prosecutor, will be named | George Francisco, also a | d is being| tion was seriously considered, there has mentioned for secretary.

Pressure on both sides was brought to bear and this is one of the reasons that the matter was held up In congress. When a start is made this time it will be done without allowing any controversy. Nothing will be done during the present session of congress, but the opinion 18 expressed that when an extra session is called the matter will be finally disposed of. That Library Site. Since the meeting of the council Mon- night, when the Carnegie library dona- considered at once. There Is some talk of starting out with & subscription list to raise sufficlent funds |for the purchase of a site. At the same time those interested will labor with the legislative committee on cities and towns in an effort to have the charter so amended as to allow an annual appropriation of $5,000 for the maintenance of the library. The securing of this money for a site by popular subscription i mot considered a #ood one by some. In this connection Counellman Johnston said yesterday that he thought the best way out of the matter would be for the city to vote bonds for, say $5,000, and purchase a suitable {site. By the voting of bonds the out-of | town taxpayers would be called upon to | pay a proportion of the amount. Such a tax will be very light, Mr. Johnston says, and he thinks that there will be no opposi- tion to bonds of this kind. The site 1s the next question and it means a friendly contest between tho wards. While many would like to see the library in the First ward, others think it should be lo- cated south of N street and thus give the Second ward a chance. However, 1t Is as | serted, that when the money for a site is | provided 1t will not be a hard matter to find a sultable location Three physicians have filed bills with the eity clerk for services rendered Henry Whetstone. 1t will be remembered that Whetstone died from the result of a blow inflicted in a drunken midnight fight just over the fine in Sarpy county five or six weeks ago. Wallace Hike is now charged with having struck the blow. One doctor wants $20 for his services in trying to save Whetstone's life, while two others ask $10 aplece from the city. These bills will be referred to the commisslor of Sarpy county for adjustment, as South Omaha officials do not consider that the municipal- ity is liable. onfeasing Judgment. City Prosecutor Henry C. Murphy Is ser- ously considering the question of refusing 1n the future to confess judgments when di- rected by the city council. Almost imme- diately after assuming the duties of his office City Attorney Lambert served notice that he would not go into court and confess judgments, as he did not consider such ac- tion legal. Since Lambert declined to con- foss judgments the task has devolved upon City Prosecutor Murphy and he begins to feel that the practice ought to be stopped. Murphy 1s under heavy bonds and he feels that he ought to be very cautious In what lie does, especially as bis bond s considera- bly more tlan that of a member of the city council. Joint Meeting Thursday. On Thursday of this week a committee of the city council will confer with the county officlals in relation to the bills re- cently rendered by the county auditor against the city of South Omaha for feeding and lodging prisoners. The committee from here is made up of Adkins, Johnston and Martin. Johnston asserts that he will con- test all of the state cases which are charged for on the ground that the city has no right to pay for confining and feeding prisoners held on state complaints. If this move 1s successful the bill, which amounts to $7,000, will be cut down materially. should ok Tracks, When the claim of John Wehner was brought up in the council Monday night the fact wus brought out that the injury to Wehner's vehicle was eaused mainly by the high rails used by the street ear company on the Q street viaduct. It is stated now that. the company will be asked to plank between the tracks as well as lay a bevol plank on the outside of the tracks. When Chief Engineer King of the Stock Yards company arranged for the repairs to this bridge he intended to have the tracks re- laid the same as on the Sixteenth street viaduct in Omaha. Plenty of A representative of one of the big ice companies sald last evening that the har- vest, while not as large as expected, would H Current Events of Interest to Local Investors. to have some returns in the near future. Some of the best business men among the Germans of Omaha are interested in a Black Hills mine where they have cut 300 feet in what is sald to be a good-looking vein, and they are pushing their work, with prospects of success. There Is another concern which is en- tirely in the control of & small number of well knowa Omaha men whose holdings are in Summit county, Colorado, where they claim to have a million tons of iron ore in sight. A project which this company is undertaking is to cut a deep tungel through the great continental divide, through which it Is proposed to run an electric road which will connect with the Colorado Southern at Grant. This tunnel, it is thought, will cut through a number of important velns, and the electric road, which will be about fifteen or twenty miles long, will reach the workings of other concerns on the Pacific side of the mountains and will bring to market a large quantity of low grade ore—gold, silver and lead—which needs a cheap haul to make it profitable. These and others, together with two or three valuable coal properties, are providing outlets for much of the surplus wealth of Omaha. Yet, as the bank returns show, there 1s abundance of it still awaiting fn- vestment. In talking on the subject of mines, real estate men say that while there may be In the aggregate several hundred thousand dollars of Omaba money invested In this way, elght non-productive, this fact does not affect the local real estate market, ex- cept in the case of a few individuals who bave gone bayond thelr depth in mines. New Whole Building. It is the intention of the United States Supply company -to erect a large building to cost In the neighborhood of $40,000 or 850,000 on the corner of Farnam and Ninth strects immediately east of the new bulld- ing of the Kingman Implement company. The lot was purchased about eleven months ago for the purpose of bullding, and al- though the plans are not yet actually coth- pleted, it 1s expected that the contractors will be at work on the foundation within @ few weeks. The company is now much cramped for space in its present quarters on Harney street, and it is also desired to get into the new building as early as possi- ble for the sake of its trackage conveni- ences.
