THE OMAHA DAIL Y BEE: SATURDAY, DECE IBER 14, 1901 T0 ORGANIZE REAL ESTATE eelers Outside Omaka and Lineoln Plaa Btate & I ANNEXATION TO SCHOOL DISTRICTS Superintendent Fow en Abnorp- tlon of Unorganized Territory= Postmaster Bushnell Goes (From a_Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, Deec. 13.—(Special.)—Deputy Labor Commiseloner Watson has been asked to support a movement toward the organization of a state assoclation of real estate dealers and it is likely that a call for a meeting to form the association will be issued within the next few days. The object 18 to limit the membership to real estate dealers outside of Omaha and Lin coln, or more particularly to those who deal more in farm lands than in city real estate. The meeting will be held in ( lumbus, Grand Island, York or Hastings the first or second week In January. Aside from the details of organization the sub- Jects to be consldered are immigration land values, rents, area and yleld of crops It is explained by the promoters of the movement that a discrimination agalnet the | dealers of Lincoln and Omaba is not in- | tended. The intercsts of the latter class | are different from the interests of the deal ers in farm lands and for that reason they | will not be invited to become members of | the assoclation Distriet 00l Annexatio Superintendent Fowler has lssued the following communication (o county super intendents urging them favor the an- | nexagtion of unorganized territory to exist- | ing school districts | “Kach organized to county not already di vided into school districts, or any part of | such counties not so divided, shall be di- vided by the county superintendent into as | many school dietricts as may be necessary Bection 3, subdivisjon 1, School Laws of | Nebraska for 1901 ! “'Nebraska has uinety organized counties, including the entire state; therefore, -vnrv} section of land or fraction thereof Is under | county organization. There are, however, | thousands of square miles of territory in | the state not organized into school districts. And in this territory are hundreds, perhaps thousards, of school children who are abso- lutely denied free school privileges! And in the state of Nebraska “The cases are rare indeed where I would | favor the organization of new districts There are already too many weak districts in Nebraska. But let me urge upon you as a duty, which, in my opinlon, Is imperative, that you see to it that every section, every acre, every foot of oil in your county /s annexed to some existing dlstrict in a man- ner to promote the general school interests of your county in the highest possible di gree. There is no territory too good to be exempt from the school district tax. Were it within the power of this office to solvo this problem it would be done before the New Year. But it rests with you. You are the court of original jurisdiction in such matters. Upon petitions signed by one- half of the legal voters in the district af- fected and in the territory proposed to be annexed, you can solve this problem. See section 4, subdivision i, School Laws of Ne- braska for 1901, But you should take the initiative. How to Overcome Obstacl “Remember that the last legislature re- moved the al¥-mile limit in.the.extent of #chool districts. Section 4b, sub- division v, provides for transporta- tion of - pupils whenever the dis- tance from school shall render it im- practicable to attend without transporta- tlon. It will not be diffcult to secure the necessary number of petitioners in the or- ganized district, and if you deal only with the legal voters in the territory proposed 10 be annexed, you will be able to overcome most of the obstacles. Non-resident prop- erty owners have no voice and are not con- sidered in passing upon petitions How mapy equare miles are there in your county? “How many not organized into school dis- tricts? What is your estimate of the school census in this territory in your county not organized fnto school districts? “I hope that a later report will show a material reduction in the number of square aniles of territory fn your county not organ- 1zed into school districts.” Land in Great Deman Land Commissioner Follmer and Deputy Eaton have completed a land-leasing tour through the counties of Custer, Blalne, Hooker and Thomas. Next week they will make the last tour of the year, visiting the counties of Howard, Merrick, Greeley, Garfleld, Loup, Wheeler and Perkins. “The trip we have just finished was as successful as any we have made this year,' |4 Mr. Eaton this afternoon. “In Custer county we leased all land on the appraised valuation, with a good bonus In addition, ranging from $1.25 to $2 per acre, which is exceptionally high for the western part of the state. It was about the same in all counties we visited. We leased all land avallable and the bonuses were higher than usual.” Bushnell Goes to the Front, Postmaster H. M. Bushnell has started for Washington with the intention of ap- pearing before the president in behalf of his candidacy for reappointment to tho po- sition he now holds.

The wish that be €0 must be father to the thought, judg ing by the present activity and efforts to get names on a petition for a party who already has the office pocketed. The fact that friends of mine are being solicited to reverse their endorsement kindly given me and that these solicitations are made through false representations does not point to such a settled condition as is evidently desired by the partles most interested That there need be no misunderstanding and that false representations may be taken at thelr worth, I want to say that the petitions, letters and endorsements given me so largely voluntarily ‘will be heard and accorded due consideration’ before the question of a postmaster for Lincoln reaches final disposition. The patrons of the office who are interested in this matter, along with those giving me direct support, are entitled to this information.

Commander Wilcox appends the following plea for better facilities for caring for dis- abled veterans “Yet there are many of our old comrades who need the help and sympathy of a gen- erous public in their declining years. Many of them have not made this life a success, financially, and are compelled to ask for and recelve assistance in the way of shel- ter and nourishment. Our legislators in the past have been generous. They have provided us homes. They know how loy- ally and manfully you came forward and oftered your life In defense of Old Glory; how you bared your breasts amid the storm of shot and shell; how, without complaint, you climbed tbe mountain, waded the swamp and stream, laid In the trenches, wet and hungry—how you suffered those four long years and sacrificed your health; yet there was no complaint. Out of 15,000 soldlers in this state 500 are now provided for in our two eoldiers' homes, but, com- rades, great are the demands for admis- sion at the present time and many worthy soldiers bave to be denled Its bounteous privileges by reason of the congested con- dition of each. More room Is required Nothing can be done to relieve the condi- tion for more than eighteen months. The greatest demand for shelter and subsistence in our homes will be seen In the next five years. In order for our legislative com- mittee to act.intelligently your commander desires each post, through its officers and thelr friends, to ascertain the number of such soldiers or widows of soldiers who will need the benefits of a soldlers’ home within the coming two years, glving name, company, regiment and age.

MRS, BONINE IS ACQUITTED Woman Acoused of James Ayres' Murder ot Free by Jury, HEARS THE VERDICT READ IN COURT Trial Juror, Consames Four Weeks and Reach Deciston, Which Ac cords with Washin, ment, in Five Hours, WASHINGTON, Dec. 13.—~The jury in the case of Mrs. Lola Ida Bonine, charged with the murder of James Seymour Ayres In the Kenmore hotel in this city on the | night of May 13, this evening returned a verdict of not guilty and the defendant was set at liberty. Such a conclusion of the trial was generally expected, the popular impression here being that from the evi- dence submitted the prosecution had failed to prove its case against Mrs. Bonine. The Jury was out less than five hours, retiring & few minutes after 5 o'clock In the after. noon and reporting its verdict shortly be- fore O o'clock this evening The attendance in the courtroom when the jury returned was limited to members | of the bar, members of the press and em- ployes of the court. There was some little attempt at a demonstration of approval, but this was quickly suppressed by Judge Anderson, who had previously warned the | spectators agalnst manifestations of any character » Mrs. Bonine was fn court at the time and with her were her husband and her two boys and several of her relatives, all of whom have shown their sympathy for her by their constant attendance during the long trial. The jury was discharged and Mrs. Bonine {and her friends left the courthouse by a back door. | The trial of Mrs. Bonine had been in | progress for almost four weeks and at- tracted more attention than any trial be- fore the local courts in years. Extraor- dinary interest was caused at the time young Ayres was killed because of the mys- tery surrounding the case, until the state- ment made by Mrs. Bonine of her part in the tragedy while the coroner's inquest was in sesslon. She sald she was the only | person In the room when young Ayres was shot and that he was killed in a strug- gle with her over the possession of a re- volver with which he was trying to frighten her into compliance with his demands. Mrs. Bonine had been in jail since the tragedy. She did not go on the witness stand during the trial. Bonine Hears Report. Mra. Dennis Has Slim Chance. WASHINGTON, Dec. 13.—The condition of Mre.

Daisy Seifert Vents He Upon Child Kept in Father's Custody. Rage (From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, Dec. 13.—(Speclal Telegram.) —Mrs. Daisy Seifert, divorced wife of Charles E. Seifert, a harness merchant on South Ninth street, this afternoon entered the residence of her brother-in-law, Au- gust Hagenow, a prominent musician, and assaulted him and her little 4-year-old child in a rage made violent by liquor. Mrs. Seifert was formerly Daisy McNeal. Six years ago she married Mr. Seifert, but a few weeks ago he secured a divorce from her on account of cruelty ands her drinking habits. At the same time he se- cured an order for the custody of the child, the court reserving to the mother, under an agreement, the right to visit the child at seasonable hours. Ever since the di- vorce Mrs. Seifert has been absent from the city. This morning she returned, and tele- phoned Mr. Hagenow that she desired to see the little girl. Mr. Seifert is a brother of Mrs. Hagenow and he and his child have been making their home there for some time. Permission was accorded ber to come. Immediately after being admitted she made a rush for the child, fondled and petted it and cried over it. Then she an- nounced her determination to take it away. Both Mr. Hagenow and Mr. Seifert pro- tested. The woman then made a rush for Mr. Hagenow, caught him by the throat and choked him, but her hold was broken and she rushed upon the child and In her rage choked it also. She was finally compelled to leave the house and tonight was ar- rested and placed temporarily iu the woman's ward at the city jail, being later released on promise to appear tomorrow for trial.

CHICAGO, Dec. 13.—~Mrs. Margaret Lynch, wife of ex-Baliff James J. Lynch the confessed jury briber, was the star wit- ness In the early session of the trial of Alexander Sullivan, charged with alleged conspiracy to keep Lynch from being triel for his crime. She gave the lie direct to much of her husband’s testimony, on which the state had largely based its case. Mrs Lynch has been separated from her husband for some time. Today Mrs. Lynch’ dented emphatically that Alexander Sulllvan's | name was mentioned either by her husband or by George P. Murray on the night when Murray is said to have called on Lynch to ask him to accompany him to Sullivan's house. Lynch testified some time ago that Murray said he came at Sullivan's behest and that Sullivan wanted to send Lynch to Canada in order to avoid being trled for jury bribing. Mrs. Lynch further testified in contradiction to Lynch that Lynch had expected Murray to call on the night in question. Joseph G. Mann, an attorney of Danville, IIl, went on the witness stand later and testified that he was Alexander Sullivan's associate in the cases where jury bribing was charged and that he examined the jurors. He stated that he had never had any suspicion of any tampering done by Lynch and that he himself had never had any dealing with the witness. A strong objection was made to admitting this tes 4imony on the ground that it was Imma- terfal. Mann, however, made a personal plea to the court that his good name might not be sullied by suspicion cast upon him and he was allowed to spe TRADE DEMANDS LIBERALITY Commercinl Interests Seek Less Rig- orous Conditions Regard- ing Chinese, NEW YORK, Dec. 13.~-A movement {3 taking shape among the export and fmport houses engaged In trade with China to secure more liberal treatment for Chinese merchants and others visiting this country under the new Chinese immigration law, says the Journal of Commerce. Silas D Webb, president of the China and Japan Trading company, who has resided in | Shanghai for over fifteen years and who is thoroughly familiar with the conditions af- fecting the development of American trade with the far east, In an interview said “The restrictions which the Chinese ex- clusion act has placed on the entry of | Chinesa merchants, travelers and students into this country seem likely to undo all the advantage we had gained through the friendly attitude ef our government during | the recent negotlations between the powers and China. But for the reopening of the Chinese markets and the resumption of the ordinary currents of trade at the beginning of this year we should have had a very serfous state of things in the great cotton industry of the United States. Half the cotton mills of the south are absolutely dependent on the Chinese consumer for the sale of their output of cloth and in default | of orders from China nothing could prevent a destructive competition between New England and the south for possession of the home market. It will not he long be- fore our great iron and steel Industries have as well defined an interest in the iron market as the cotton industry also pos- sesses and care should be taken not to | prejudice our Chinese customers against us.” LAURA BULLION IS SENTENCED Judge Adams Say Ac- complice of Montana Train Roh- her Must Serve Five Years.
