Chaloud’s Death By Use of Alcohol, Is Vefd_i_ct of Jury Farwell, Neb., June 30.—(Special.) ~The mystery of the death of Adolph Chaloud in the dipsomania ward at the hospital for the insane in Lincoln was lpgnrently cleared up yesterday when the body was exhumed and a postmortem examination was held. The autopsy was conducted by Drs. H. C. Pedersen of Dannebrag, County Coroner Jester and Dr. Williams of the Lincoln hospital. Their exami- nation showed that Chaloud came to his death by cereberal hemorrhage caused by delerium tremens. An ex- amination of nine witnesses was con- ducted at the St. Paul court house by Attorney T. T. Bell before a coro- ner's jury, and the returned a Announcement was made yesterday by the street railway company, and by the gas company that any em- ployee who enlists in the militia will lose nothing by it. Numerous other concerns employing large numbers of men, made the same announcement, and the newspaper offices are con- tinually being notified of like offers. This new development naturall means a marked increase in the al- ready rushing business at recruiting stations. Ranks of several militia companies yesterday were swelled to war strength and new companies and awkward squads organized. News Joyfully Received. “Splendid,” was the way the news was greeted at the recruiting offices, “Now watch Omaha show the rest of the middle west a few things in patriotism.” The street railway company not only permits its employces to join the militia, but pays them for doing so, making up the difference in the wages. In this way, the families of militiamen will not suffer. Jobs will be held open also. The gas company offer is just the same. The Order of Stags announce that members who join the militia will be paid sick and death benefits in spite of the increased risk. Awkward Squads Busy, Recruits in four companies were “divided into awkward squads” yes- terday afternoon, and entrusted to the tender mercies of drill sergeants who put them through rudiments of the manual of arms. They learned how to “right about” without stepping on their own feet or those of their neighbors. One or two of the squads went out into the streets for a short march. ames E. Ludlow of Crane & Co., wholesale plumbing, received word from his Chicago office giving him authority to offer full pay for six months to all employe-militiamen, and to promise further provision at the end of that time. con- 1916.
