The house passed the committee's substitute for the Russell anti-trust bill with but one opposing vote. The bill is fashioned after the Missouri law, with sufficient changing in it to avoid that statute's le gal defect.

A motion was made to refer the bill to the judiciary committee for an opinion na to the val idity of this section, but the friends of the measure declared this particulfj section had been taken bodily from the Wisconsin statute for the reason thst its constitutionality had been established by tb supreme court of tbit state.

Prdltfr SI arSVraa . mr CJkbem, W. C. C'ronit'ter, a peddler, as brut ally mirdered last evening in the west era part of this county. The acene of the crime was a farmhouse, on hat is known as the Tom Murray farm, situat ed in Chicago precinct, this county, about six miles from illkhorn station. The house is occupied by Mrs. Reed a ho sub rented a part of the dwelling to Charles Stroebel, when Cronister was not on the road disposing of his wares he boarded at Mrs. Read's. About 9 o'clock last night Cronister and Mrs. lie J were sitting at the table in the kitchen and Cronister was en gaged in figuring on some accounts. Suddenly Mrs. Reed heard a loud re port and a crashing of glass and mw Cronister fall over in his chair with blood oozing from his head. Strobe! aas sitting with his wife and child iu an adjoining room. The door wasopen and oil hearing the report they rushed into the room. The peddler was dead and must have been instantly kill ed. Without stopping to examine the body the Kt rubles and Mrs. Reed ran from the house to tl.e residence of farmer named Tunnison, who owns the Reed farm. From' t hence thev went to J. Rabb'tt'swtic hitched up his team and drove to the scene of the murder. llewusaocoinpanied by his father-in-law, O.W. A Ibro, Daniel Clifton and J. C Reeves. It was nearly 11 o'lix-k when they arrived at the Iteed farm. They looked through the kitchen window and saw Cronister still in a reclining position in hisi'hair. He had evidently died with out a struggle. They entered and re moved the liody lo a sofa. The assassin had evidently used a shot gun, and the charge of bird shot had struck Cronister immediately be hind the left ear. The jteddler's wagon was standing in front of the house and the horses were hitched in the stable. The lamp was still burning on the table. No Irtu-e nf the murderer wng to be found. The north window was shattered bv the shot, which hail been lired through t he glaas. ... The people caice to Omaha this morn ing and notified Chief Kenvey Sheriff Boyd, Coroner Hnrringan and County Attorney Mahoncy of the crime. Mr. Mahoney, Dr. Harrigan, his deputy Dr. McMonignl nud Deputy Sheriff Greta accompanied them to the "arm. At first no particular person could be suspected of the murder and no motive could be assigned for the perpetration of the crime. - The m urderer had walked up to the window, fired the fatal shot and fled before any of . the inmate of the hous could catch a glimse of hi in. - . Cronister bought hi goods of the W. R. Bennett company, at Fifteenth and Capitol avenue, in'thiscityJ The last time he was in the store was last Tues day, when he bought a bill of goods. He is described as a heavy set man, of medium height and apparently about .V) years of age. He had no family, so far at can be ascertained. IVorlit-HeruM. Following up Hie Munlrr. When W. C. Connyster, the peddler, was shot Sunday night st Mrs. Reed's home at Klkhorn, it was reiiorted that he had a wife and family in that city. The person with whom he dealt knew of no such fsmilv, however, and Mrr. R ied story that he was a widower and had two children in Illinois was ac cepted. But at Albright the story of the trag edy excited lively interest. Counyster was known there and the neighbors of a Mrs. Millner, who has lived there for about a year, regarded him aa her hus band. Mrs. Millner's maiden name was Brown, and her brother, George Brown, has lived next door. ' She snd Millner quarrelled about eight months ago and he deserted her; leaving her with three children to support.' One of the child ren ha been born since. Not long after Millner left Connysten, who seems to have known the wife, drifted along that way and took the ab sent husbsnd's place at the head of th household,' and was said to have wedded Mrs. Millner. Some three or four months sgo be too quart lied with the woman and then be went to Mrs. Reed's. Mrs. Millner left her cottage this morning and with her children started up the track for South Omaha. Brown, Mrs. Millner's brother, disap peared Sunday night and has not been aesn since. The coincidence sets the neighbors to talking. Among aom of thorn there is a story thst Connystor is the fsther of the baby and that ah deserted it, but as neither Brown nor Mrs. Millner could be ftund today, their statement of th relation of th couple and as to. whether or not Mrs. Milmer waa the peddler's wife can not be had. Somewhat different veision iathat given by Gas Inspector Gilbert, who says that Coonyster has a wife who lives naf Albright. They were married about two years ago. The briile was a widow with three children. Her first husband's name was Millner, and she has been known by that nam sine hr eparatkm from Connyster, which oc curred a yeer ago. During their mar ried lifa. thsy lived near what is known as tha Albright aan, aaar tha Sarpy usty line, n olaimad that Conar-1 tor rasiatad oa his wife taking ia wash isf for tb support of tha (amity whil badVvoted tb proceed of hta buslnsas to bis perboual enjoy meiiL Mrs Coouy ster finally grew tired of this condition of affairs and left him. Sincthnbe has made his liome with Mrs. Reed. Antonio Frank, the nikborn man charged with the murder of Connyster, was todav brought in to the count jail here he no is. Frank is ready to talk to all comers arid reiterates the statement of his innocence. He is not a bit nervous and acts and talks quite coolly for an amateur murderer, if such he be. KokblBSIfcr UmuI.
