XLV-—NO. 1 “NELS GUNNERSON 15 SURE HAUSER BOARDED HIS CAR Identifies Man in City Jail as One He Whom He Saw at Fortieth and Farnam Streets, Night of Smith Murder. DSTAILS ACTIONS OF SUSPECT| Apparently Had Been Running for Some Distance and Was Out of Breath When He Paid Fare. DISPOSES OF THE ALIBI Nels Gunnerson, street car con- wductor on the Farnam line, identified Arthur Hauser, alleged slayer of W. H. Smith, as the man who boarded his street car about midnight the night of the murder of the Woodmen of the World cashier. Gunnerson saw Hauser late yesterday afternoon and declared positively that he is the man, Gunnerson sald Hauser boarded his car at Fortleth and Farnam streets and ap- parently had been running some distance, for he was out of breath. He rushed by the door, roughly throwing his fare in the box as he did so, and hurriedly took a seat at the front of the car, said the conductor. He also pulled his hat down over his eyes and pulled his ccllar up around his neck, Gunnerson asserted. Gunnerson's identification, the police believe, will offset Hauser's assertion that he was in Indlanapolis the night of the Smith murder. Note Sent Hauser. A note addressed to “Art Hauser, City Jail, Omaha,” was received today. The note was from a woman and was merely signed “A Friend.” The note quoted sev- eral verseg from Scripture such as "‘Be not deceived, God is not mocked,” and ‘Whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he reap.” She advised Hauser not to com- it suicide as he threatened, but to put his faith in the Saviour. Each hour seems to bring some bit of testimony or evidence that apparently is drawing & net of facts about Hauser that will disprove any defense he may make. Practically every victim of the W. T. Hause robbery has seen Hauser and 1dentified him so emphatically that he has made a clean breast of this offense, even to revealing the location of the valuables taken.
