Coroner Steinwender announced to day to newspaper men that the im mediate cause of the death of Mr. Meyer was a gun shot wound, self inflicted. Mr. Meyer had asked his Wife and the trained nurse to leave him alone for a time. During their absence he obtained a revolver and in this way ended his life, that had become unbearable because of in tense suffering.

Louis Meyer, and hy one brother, Ferdinnnd, of Han over, Germany. Funeral services will be held from the residence Monday afternoon at 2. Born in Hanover.

"AVent to school there until 1875. “AVhen time came to decide whether or not to enter Prussian military ser vice or to resign from the Prussian national system, all relatives being much opposed to the latter, I was in duced to emigrate to America, arrlv Ing in New A'ork In July, 1875. “After two months of looking around I found a place as bookkeeper and cashier In the office of the leather belting manufacture of Charles A. Schrerln, then located In the so-called ‘Swamp on Gold Street,’ only half a dozen blocks from Fulton ferry where 1 resided with friends in Brooklyn. Scherln, with whom I remained two years, was quite active In church cir cles and later on became very prom inent politically, being elected as may or of Hoboken several times after ouilding up a very large business. Employed By The Bee. “In ’77 my relatives In Omaha, the nld firm of Pundt, Meyer & Raapke. Induced me to come west and 1 traveled for them in the wholesale grocery business for two years until they dissolved partnership. I con cluded to try my luck In Wyoming and Colorado, spending the most part of my time traveling for the old firm of C. C. Conrad & Co., originators of Budwelser beer, until they failed two years later, their business being taken over by the Anheuser Brewing company, who had their own distribu tors. “In the fall of '82 I returned to Omaha with the intention of going abroad for another visit, but became ill and remained at the old St. Joseph hospital, then located I believe be tween Eleventh and Twelfth on Pact flc street'. When I left the care there of Dr. Paul Grossman. I was advised not to undertake the trip abroad and I took a place on the recommenda tlon of friends, with The Bee Publish ing company of Edward Rosewater until the following April when I crossed the ocean with George Helm rod* and family, having promised Mr. Rosewater to come back to him In the fall. However, In January-, 1884, a better opportunity offered itself at the Willow Springs distillery through the departure and the longer absence of Mr. Henry Suessenbach on whose return in the fall I did part office work and part traveling for four years Head of Willow Spring". “When, In 1888, the distillery prop or was leased for a number of years to the original "whisky trust” called the Distillers and Cattle Feeders com pany. “X was placed In charge of the dis tributing house of Iler company, and when. In 1388, the Sherman anti trust law forbade such trust arrangement the old establishment, distillery, real estate as well as distributing house went Into a receivership and a few years later wras placed In my sole charge from 1902 until 1914, when we came under prohibition. "Married In 1884 to Alice, daughter of Gen. and Mrs. Bruno Tzschuck, one of the first settlers In Nebraska, having located near Bellevue shortly after 1850. “Two sons wsre born to Alice and A. h.

One of the largest structures In Omaha is the Union Pacific building. And it gpntributes less soot and smoke to the downtown district than many two and three story buildings. The answer is simple. The railroad has Installed In Its plant an automatic stoker, which gives the proper com bustion and burns up the smoke be fore It ascends the high stack. An even fire Is kept there constantly. Since a goodly portion of the black smoke clouds one sees pouring out of Omaha chimneys every day Is com-, bitstible, depending upon the amount of carbon, many companies, among them the Union Pacific, decided to utilize that t Instead of wasting It. When The Omaha Bee began Its educational campaign to abate the city’s smoke nuisance, three solutions were suggested. They were the more general use of so-called smokeless coal: the Installation of smoke-con suming devices, and proper stoking. It has been suggested that while a large plant like the Union Pacific Is able to burn up Its smoke because bf the size of the fire, smaller concerns are helpless when they attempt a similar remedy. This can best he an swered by Max I Walker, owner of n cleansing establishment at 2410 Ames avenue. Said Mr. Walker: ’’We Installed an automatic stoker in September. There Is virtually no smoke coming out of our chimney now. When there Is smoke. It Is not particularly heavy and is only for a 10-second Interval. We burn nil kinds of coal, and we are saving 40 percent on our fuel hill.'* Mr. Walker said that his own ex perience convinced him that 7fi per cent of smoke could he burned. The problem has always been a serious one for him, he said, because his plant Is In a residential district and the soot annoyed the neighbors. Another plant which lias solved the smoke nuisance by the Installation of automatic devices Is the Sanitary Wet Wash laundry, at 2S15 Farnam street. $25,000 FOUND AT FARMHOUSE .Salt I.aka City, Jan. 3.—Apprnxl mately $25,000 In gold coin and bonds has been recovered at a small farm nenr Bountiful, Utah, north of here, formerly occupied by Dale Rowan, alias J.
