MURDER VICTIM
IDENTIFIED BY
SIX MAIIANS
Friends of Mrs. Fitzsimmons
Recognize Body and
Solve Mys
v tery.
(Contlntwsl From Ff One.)
up to last Tuesday, at which time
occurred a sensational escapade
that broke up their relations and
v compelled them to leave the hotel.
Gun Play Last Tuesday.
According to the stories told by
Harvey Wolf. Clerk S. M. Smith of
the hotel and the Mrs. Wicks and
Miss Newman, Fitzsimmons and his
wife had a terrific quarrel in their
rooms at the Elms hotel last Tues
day afte. noon.
Shortly before 4 the fight became
sucti that Mn. Fitzsimmons cried
out for helo.
An appeal was made to the clerk
to call tin- police, but at first he re
fused to do so.
He attempted to pacify Fitzsim
mons. however, whereat the husband
a drew a revolver. The clerk threw it
. up and the two rolled upon the bed.
The revolver was not discharged.
Escaped in Taxi.
The night clerk broke from' the
grasp of the man and, rushing to a
phone, called for the police.
Fitzsimmons and his wife, becom
ing alarmed, hastily packed their
belongings, summoned a taxi,, which
is believed to have been a Blue taxi,
and at 4 left the hotel, but a few
minutes in advance of the police.
All Four Disappear.
Since the tight in the Elms hotel
and the disappearance of the Fitz-
simmons couple there have been
two other disappearances that are
held to have a vital bearing upon
the whole affair.
The sister of the Fitzsimmons
girl, known as May, and her hus
band. Homer Morrel, a barber at
the Fontenelle hotel, have disap
peared. Shot on Tuesday.
' According to all the evidence in
the casj that appears probable, re
, garding the shooting and finding of
the woman in the Washington coun
ty ravine, she could have been shot
Tuesday night.
The body was discovered Thurs
day morning. .
. Admitting that there is no doubt
of the body being that of the Fitz
simmons woman, it is pointed out
that her killing Tuesday night would
fit exactly with alt the circumstances
attending the finding of the body,
which it is asserted bv physicians
could not have been dead more than
48 hours before found.
Fitzsimmons Disappears.
,W. A. Fitzsimmons, 334 North
Forty-first street, said early this
morning that his son, A. Leo Fitz
simmons, came to him at the stock
yards last Tuesday morning late
and said he was going to leave town
Tuesday night. Mr. Fitzsimmons,
Sr., said he understood Leo's wife
was going to accompany him. Leo
Fitzsimmons said something about
going 'to Colorada to live on a
ranch, the elder Fitzsimmons said.
Married Again.
Mr. Fitzsimmons was sentenced
to 30 days in the county jail on a
vagrancy charged filed by his father
on October 7. He charged that his
son had been living with his di
vorced wife under the name of
Mable Fitzsimmons.
; The father, with tears in his eyes,
at that time testified that his son
had been drunk'for five weeks and
that his divorced wife had him un
der influence and draggedihim away
from his home and business.

Shortly after The Bee went to
press this morning the station was
called up and notified of the identi
fication of Ihe bddy and its results.
First Arrest
The first arrest in the case was
announced late yesterday afternoon
by the police, following a visit to
the city of Miss Grace Ballard,
county attorney of Washington
county, who came here in an auto
mobile with two of Chief Dunn's
detectives.
The arrest was that of Cecil
Stricklett, who reported Saturday
night, after viewing the body at
Calhoun, that he felt certain it was
that of a young woman with whom
he had danced the Saturday night
previous at the Calhoun dance hall.
Following this partial identifica
tion by Stricklett Saturday night,
M1ss Ballard, when informed of it
over, the telephone from The Bee
office, remarked:
"I know that boy Stricklett."
Stricklett was brought to Omaha
at 8 o'clock and booked for inves
tigation. Police refuse to give out
any information concerning the ar
rest. Many View Body.
Over 1,000 people yesterday
viewed ths body at Gentleman's mor
tuary, this number including almost
everybody in the city who knew of
a missing girl, or thought that they
might recognize the girl as one
whom somebody else missed, or had
heard was missing.
A dozen times during the day it
appeared that at last identification
had been niade. the persons viewing
the body exclaiming tnat tney were
positive they recognized it, but one
case after another broke down upon
investigation made by the author!
ties or by The Bee.
. Put Clothes on Dead Body.
As a last resort that might refresh
the memory, it was decided to put
the original colthes on the girl, so
that , she will appear dressed as in
life. . I
For this purpose Miss Grace Bal
lard, county attorney of Washing
ton county, brought the clothes in
at a ate hour in the afternoon.
Undertaker Gentleman, at the
instance vof Countv Attorney Bal
lard of Washington county, who
came in from Blair with the clothes
of the dead girl, suspended the pub
lic viewinir of the body tor two
hours for the purpose of going over
it thoroiiKhlv for scars, .birtn ana
other marks, '
This was the hnet tune that a
thorough examination of the body
had been made and was doubly im-
Dortant for the ourDose of establish
insr the last means of identification"
advanced by two parties.
Thought Pender, (Neb.), Girl.
For a time it was thought that the
.dead girl had come from Pender,
Neb.
Dr. F. H. Kay. an Omaha physi
cian, with offices at 306 Bee building,
stated that the description answered
that of s patient, and said that his
attendant had viewed the body and
believed it to be that of the patient
in question.
Dr.. Kay said that a certain scar
on the abdomen would identify the
body beyond any possible doubt.
In the meantime investigation by
The Bee by long distance phone to
Fender, Neb., the home of Dr. Ray's
patient, had established the fact that
she had left home for another city
some time ago, but that a letter had
been received ifrom her Thursday
afternoon. At a late hour last night
a telephone message announced
that the Pender girl was safe at the
place to which she had gone from
Pender.
. Country Girl, Swedish Descent.
With the apparent failure of all
efforts to identify the girl as having
come irom Umana, it was said by
the authorities that it appeared -certain
that the theory advanced by
some was correct that the girl is
from some small country town
within 100 miles or so of Omaha.

Wire to Makers.
A telegram sent by The Bee to
the manufacturers of the Modart
corset at Saginaw, Mich., resulted
in the following answer:
"Modart corset is sold in Omaha
and vicinity only by firm9 named in
your query, and by Oransky at
Atlantic, la.; Wessels of Nebraska
City, and Eddy Brothers of Fulton."
All the articles of wear, with the
exception of a No. 38 silk under
skirt made by the "Vanity Fair"
company, show considerable wear
and are possibly several months old.
the corset especially being at least a
year old, or having been washed sev
eral times.
The Leading Clues.
The leading clues of the-day were
given by the Hansen and Coon iden
tification and that advanced by W.
Johnson, 2215 Howard street, who
thought the girl had rented a room
from him.
A. C. Jewell, real estate man, 311
Brown building, announced at first
sight of the girl that she had been
his stenographer, Annie Coort. He
stated facts that appeared to corro
borate his claim. i
Investigation showed that a Mrs.
Harris, who left the employ of the
Fashion a year ago, was the sister
mentioned by Mr. Jewell, and
through the efforts of L. Moskoviti,
proprietor of the Fashion, it was
learned that this sister of Mrs.
Harris lias been confined in the pest
house -for smallpox. Mr. Jewell cor
roborated the smallpox story, saying
that his stenographer' had shown
mark of the disease. H. F. Alder
man, 1522 South Twentieth street,
corroborated Mr. Jewell.
Careful examination of the dead
girl fails to show any traces of pock
marks.
Not Hanson Girt.
A spconrl identification that nrom-
ised something was by Mrs. Harry
Wyemorc. a restaurant proprietor.
and E. R. McNally, former secretary
of the local union of cooks and
waitresses, who both said they be
lieved the body to be that of a girl
known as Tina or Lena Hanson, who
had married a man named Whit-
taker, but had lately threatened to
divorce him.
At a late hour last night, however,
a sister ot the Hanson girl said the
body was not that of Tina, despite
the impressions of Mrs. Wvemore
and a number of waiters and
waitresses who viewed the body.

people who "thought" the dead girl

AGED TREYNOR
FARMER HANGS
SELF IN BARN
Large Landowner Takes Own
Life Friends Differ on
- Reason for
Act.
Jacob Tierck, one of the wealthi
est farmers and largest landowners
in Pottawattamie county, la., com
mitted suicide on his farm -two
miles east of Treynor Sunday. He
was past, 70 years of age and had
resided in the vicinity of Treynor
ever since he was a young man. He
was found hanging in one of the
barns on the farm by his son, Au
gust, when the latter was doing the
momma: work. He was still alive
and convulsive shudders ere shak-
nar the hodv when the son reached
him. He was instantly cut down and
the strangling noose removed from
his neck. Hie chest was still heav
ing and several gasping breaths
came, but he ceased breathing a mo
ment later.
Physicians were called from the
nearby village, but every effort to
resuscitate nun raiiea aner more man
an hour continuous work. It was
said in Treynor yesterday that he
had made previous attempts to take
his own life, and it was denied that
financial losses connected with the
construction of the Treynor Short
Line railroad had anything to do
with his act of self-destruction. It
was intimated that domestic discord
had affected him unduly.
Coroner Cutler was notified and
took charge of the body yesterday
afternoon, but had not decided upon
an inquest, ihe body was not re
moved from the farm and the
funeral will be held there.
Permanent Marine
Force of 27,467 Men
Requested by Bamett
Washington, Nov. 23. A perma
nent enlisted strength of 27.467 men
forthe marine corps, approximately
aouDie tne pre-war torce, is recom
mended by Major General Bamett,
commandant, in his annual report.
Early action of congress is urged,
as delay would mean loss of rank
for temporary officers who would
be retained.
Opportunity to qualify for per
manent commissions should be
given all present temporary officers
eligible for transfer, the report
said.
Attributing much of the success
of the marine corps in the war to
the system of drawing its' commis
sioned personnel from the ranks,
the commandant said the "highest
efficiency" would be served by ad
herence to this policy, which at
tracts the highest class of recruits.
General Bamett recommended
that the present two, three and
four-year enlistment terms be made
permanent and asked increased pay
for both enlisted men and officers.

son either isn't . missing, or thev
changed their minds later.
Consults Shotwell.
In response to urgent requests,
Miss Ballard came to the city in
the afternoon bringing the clothes
of the dead girl. She took these to
the Gentlemair mortuary, and; con
ferred with County Attorney 'Shot
well concerning their dispositi6n,
finally agreeing to leave them at the
mortuary if Mr. Shotwell would
hold himself responsible.
Miss Ballard remained several
hours conferring with Mr. Gentle
man, watching the stream of visi
tors view the body, and later assist
ed in the examination of the body
for scars and marks.
Chief Dunn, of the detective bu
reau joined her about 9 o'clock fol
lowing the arrest of the Stricklett
youth, and they left the place to
gether. Miss Ballard did not care
to discuss the Stricklett arrest, or
state whether it had been made at
her instance.
Detectives Get Clue. .
It was announced by Chief Dunn
at about 4 that positive identifica
tion had been made, and to all ap
pearances the case, as far as the
name of the girl was concerned,
would be over within an hour.
His announcement followed the
appearance at the station of two of
his men with three girls and three
youths' who had been taktn to the
mortuary to view the body. Atter
consultation iff Mr. Dunn s office
the entire party went awy, having
a big Cadillac, and it was announced
that they had gone .back to the
mortuary to take another look at
the body "to make sure."
lhey did not reappear at the
mortuary, and it is thought they
were taken back to their homes.
Nothing more was heacd of this
identification and that it had failed
was attested by Miss Ballard at 10,
when Mr. Gentleman announced
that up to that time the public view
of the body had resulted in nothing
definite.
It was said that two of the young
women who thought they knew the
body were Miss Alice McAmee and
Miss Maude bhayler of Eist Omaha.
They were said to have been present
at the dance with Stricklett at Calhoun.
After Theater Parties.
The mortuary was kept open and
the body on view, until after the
closing of the theaters last night,
several parties having announced
their intention of looking at it, be
lieving in the possibility of the dead
girl being some one they had
known. Nothing definite was
learned as a result of this, however.

BARON VON
KELMANN.
(Formerly at th German Army Staff.)
Hamburg, Nov. 2J. It is hard to
reconcile my position today with
that of a year ago, when I was one'
cf the staff of the German army and
enjoyed the confidence of the em
peror and crown prince. Today I
stand at a street corner in Ham
burg in my uniform, selling papers.
When I embarked on my military
career I was wealthy for a member
of the German nobility. , I soon
found that the life of extravagance
in the circle around the crown prince
was going to cat into my resources.
Soon I got into debt, t tried keep
ing away from the expensive haunts
frequented by the crown prince, but
he kept on pressing me for explana
tions of my absence.
I could not tell my prince the
truth, because I was overcome with
false pride.
Therefore I went on, plunging
deeper and deeper into debt.
When the war broke out I went
with the crown prince into the war
zone as a member of his personal
staff and took part in the desperate
fighting from tne battle of Charleroi
to the armistice. I was in the Ver
dun shambles.
Meets a GirL
One day in Luxemburg I met a
lovely girl of the student class. I
was able to give her a lift in my car,
and we became friends. She held
strong socialist views, and. to my
surprise, she did not hesitate to ex
press them in my presence.
I liked to hear the wickedness of
my class denounced from such pret
ty lips in such sweet and musical
tones. I let her talk on, and, to my
surprise, l woke up one morning to
consciousness of the fact that my
life had been wasted, and that, like
so many of my class, I was really
a drone and ought to be ashamed of
mvself.
I was transferred from Luxem
burg. In the change of environment
my determination to live the new
life of service was weakened.
About this time the allied armies
began their offensive. On the Aisne
I was wound;d and left to die.
l was so weak that I could not
call out, a"nd my terror at the
thought of being buried alive made
it more than ever difficult fof me to
attract attention. I could just -lie
there and pray to God to send me
aid.
Tears came into my eyes as I
thought of the opportunities I had
missed, but I realized that regrets
were useless. Recollection of that
girl in Luxemburg came back to me.
She had told me that the only way
of escape for me from a life of use-
iessness was to find some, real work
and do it. .
Keeping His Promise.
There and then my mind was
made up. I prayed once more, con
fessing the way in which I had
abused life and promising that if
spared I would lead .a better life.
After I had prayed a strange calm
came to me, and I lay there, little
troubling about the hurricane of
shells.
The night passed. In the morn
ing dead were dotted over the bat
tlefield in clusters dead of all na
tions. The gun fire was more dis
tant. Coming toward me were ambu
lance detachments. "1 will shout to
thern when they are nearer," I said,
and even as I spoke I remembered
my helplessness, but,' nevertheless, I
made the attempt, and one of the
parties came over to me. They were
British, and they nursed me until I
was well enough to go back.
I sought out work, but found that
there was nothing I could do noth
ing hut sell papers. It was hard to
bring myself to do it, but I was de
termined that I would keep the vow
I had made, and so I planted myself
on this pitch.
If I break my compact I cannot
hope to see again that wonderful
girl of Luxemburg and tell her that
I am now nearly' worthy .of her
failh in me,.
THEATERGOERS

Theater goers went to their favor
te houses yesterday prepared for

cording to W. J. Burgess, manager
If no coal is secured at the end. ol
that time the theater will close, Mr.
Burgess said.

which are heated by the Brandejs
power plant, were comfortable in
spite of the fact that heat was cut oft
Saturday. ' ,
H. B. Watts, manager of the
Strand, said that with the excention
of one cold day. his theater had not
been heated this fall. The heat gen
erated bv the crowd is sufficient to
keep the theater warm, he said, un
less the weather is exceptionally
cold.
Toy Sutphen, manager of the
Brandeis, explained that his house is
situated in the center of a warm of
fice building, and declared that :t re
quired little or no heat, except dur
ine. the very coldest weather. The
great difficulty was to keep the place

Other theaters were comfortably
warm. Churches were also heated as
usual.

"Admiral Millo sent us to tell you
he will meet D'Annunzio."
The news soon spread through

All the church belb started ringing

"Some f the people," continues
the narrative, "could not 'believe

No Fear of Conflict.
"Although nobody knew what
Admiral Millo's course would be,
nobody seemed to have the least
fear of the possibility of a conflict
r.nd a landing of D'Annunzio and his
officers gave rise to a noisy demon
stration. At the sight of D'Annun

words of welcome. Old people wept
unrestrainedly. Nothing was heard
but cries of joy; nothing was seen
but waving hands and hats and the
tri-colored handkerchiefs.
"D'Annunzio appeared absolutely
transfigured. His followers were
obliged to struggle to protect him
from the population who otherwise
would have suffocated him. Finally
an automobile succeeded in carry
ing him to the seat of the govern

him. He remained talking for half
an hour with the admiral after
which the latter ordered his chief of

Percy Willis Tells Dundee
Folk How He Cleaned the
Yankees in a Few Weeks.
Glasgow, Nov. 23. Percy Willis
is back in Dundee, his home town.
Hi story might have been taken
from a novel. He landed in Amer
ica with $1,485. With that he
bought a small shop in Chicago.
He only kept that shop for two
weeks when the whole of the sur
rounding property was bought up
by a syndicate for a general stow.
All but the Scotsman's. .
Stuck for $25,000.
They offered him $2,500 for his
rights. He scented the start of his
fortune and refused.
"Would he take $5,000?" Still the
Scotsman said "Nothing doing."
"They let me' alone for a week,"
he told home folks, "and then a big
fat lawyer Strolled in one day, and
after some big words he asked what
my figure was.
"I saw that they could not do
much without my shop, for it was
right where the entrance would
need to be so I said $25,000. Yoa
should have heard what that lawyer
fellow said. He told me something
about Scotsmen that I never knew
before. But he gave me a check
all the same.' -
Leavei With $500,000.
"The next, day I took the money
to a broker and asked him to in
vest it for me. I invested $10,009
in a 'sure thing and $15,000 in oil
shares.
"Well, those shares fell every day
for a fortnight, and I was begin
ning to kick myself when oil was
found. Then up went the shares.
Right up to 32 times their value
when I bought them. , Then I sold.
They went up- a good bit higher,
but I cleared out with $500,000 to
the good."
