From Tuesday's Dally.
The press dispatches of the past
few days have been filled with stor
ies of the disappearance of Col.
Norman P. Hyatt, formerly th eom
niander of the 2nd Iowa infantry
and later in charge of the 10th M. P.
Ammunition and Sanitary trains at
Camp Cods', New Mexico. The Hyatt
family at Webster City, Iowa, are in
the midst of a gTeat deal of marital
trouble, and dispatches from Webs
ter City state that the wife of the
former military officer is to seek re
lief from the courts.
A sensational airing was given
the private life of Col. Hyatt fol
lowing his discharge from the army
at Camp Upton, by the New York
newspapers and was followed by his
disappearance. The colonel has
been reported as living: at Dea
Moines and the latest rumor in
Webster City is that he has come to
Omaha to reside.
During his stay in the south Col.
Hyatt was a prominent figmre in
Camp Cody as commander of the
military police forces having the
regulation of the camp and the town
of Deming under his command and
while in that capacity became well
known to many of the Cass county
men serving in the different organ
izations in the camp.

ministrations four hearts now beat

bonds of wedlock, the ceremony be
ing witnessed by Mrs. W. M. Ander
son, a friend of the contracting

ANOTHER EX
TRA SESSION OF
LEGISLATURE
COMMITTEE LIKELY TO PETI
TION GOV. McKELVIE TO
ISSUE THE CALL.
PLAN TO CURB PROFITEERING
But Committee Says Public Hearing
on Remedies Does Not Repre
sent General Sentiment
The legislative committee appoint
ed to investigate and if desirable,
petition Governor McKelvie to call
a special session of the legislature
to attempt to curb profiteering by
passing state laws is seriously con
templating a recommendation for the
calling of such a session of Nebras
ka lawmakers. The committee held
a public hearing in representative
hall Friday.
Invitations were publicly extended
to all who had remedies which the
legislature might enact into laws, to
appear before the committee or send
in suggestions in writing. At the
meeting only a few persons appear
ed, not to exceed thirt-flve or forty,
and out of that number none posi
tively recommended a special ses
sion of the legislature. It was be
lieved by some connected with the
meeting that the farmers packed the
meeting and that others stayed away.
Most of those who spoke were con
nected with the farmers' union, the
state grange or other organizations
such as poultry and stock feeders or
were engaged in actual farming,
and none of them demanded a spec
ial session for the enactment of
laws. Some farmers expressed the
opposition to state or federal fixing
of prices of food in the hands of
producers, and one expressed fear
that any legislation that might be
enacted might affect the price of pro
ducts in the hands of producers.
Secretary E. R. Purcell. a member
of the legislature from Cuter county,
publisher of a newspaper, said Sat
urday that Chairman Neal of Nem
aha county authorized him to say
that the committee has completed its
public meeting and would consider
the question of makirg further in
vestigation before filing a recom
mendation with the governor.
"The public hearing Friday," said
Secretary Purcell, "did not represent
sentiment as the committee finds it
over the state and as represented by
written suggestion received. These
are as yet considered confidential.
The committee will continue its in
quiry. It believes it is finding some
feasible suggestions that may be
used as a remedy against profiteer
ing. It may be some time before the
committee is ready to report."
Taylor Not Present.
The legislative commit -ee is made
up of Senators Neal of Nemaha,
Taylor of Custer and Cooper of
Douglas, Representatives Hardin of
Harlin. Purcell of Custer and Mc
Laughlin of Hall. At the public
hearing Senators Taylor and Cooper
were absent. The latter had been
enthusiastic over the work of the
committee and met with it at the
first meeting, but on account of bus
iness was prevented from attending
the public hearing.
The absence of Taylor, of Custer
from the public meeting caused con
siderable comment. The plan of an
extra session to cope with high
prices was sprung by Taylor in the
state senate at the recent extra ses
sion. It was his idea to have the
legislature in special session ask the
governor to call another immediate
ly for passage of laws to curb profi
teering. The senate did not see fit to make
this demand upon the governor, bu.
adopted a substitute resolution for
thL appointment clothed with power
to investigate whether or not a rem
tlf feauli be had by passing laws,
and if so to recommend to the gover
nor the calling of an extra session.
Taylor's resolution also denounced
the state and federal administration
for doing nothing to curb the high
price and took a slap at the code bill
introduced by Governor McKelvie.
As the legislature did not adopt
Taylor's original resolution is is said
he lost interest in the curbing of
high prices to the extent that he
said he did not know whether he
would be present at the committee's
public bearing, that he had not yet
made up his mind. Later he made up
his mind to stay away, although con
ditions as to profiteering arc said
not to have changed materially since
he first asked for a special session
of the legislature.
