cording to a story current in the

suggestion that the difference be
tween the salary received and the
teachers' idea of a living wage be
made up through popular subscrip
tions was made by Dr. R. J. McAr
,thur. Dr. McArthur expressed u
willingness to open the fund with n

County Attorney George Loamer, of
South Sioux City, last evening, who
reversed his decision to prosecute the
bandit on a murder charge after
makincr a nersonal investigation into
the case after thp inquest Saturday,
"There is evidence to show that tho
dead man is not Dewey Kinney," he
said. "Until I am satisfied that ev
erything has been cleared up I shall
prefer a charge of robbery against
Piazzi.'' Kinney's body has been
sent to Johnstown. Local police
claim to have tho third bandit im
plicated in the shooting located. He
may be arrested at any moment.
Testimony of several Sioux City pen
pie tends to support the theory that
the identification of the mUrdered
lad was a mistake.
