Injured ,
Williams , the man who shot Constable
Mess at Ix eland on Tuesday , lins
been Identified as a horsothlet who
the authorities ot Iowa and Nebraska
have been after for several months ,
Ha Bftyn his right name IB James Williams.
To several persons to whom ho had recently
sold bo re 03 and who called at the county
jail and Identified him he gave the names
of Jack Moore- , Jack Gregg and Jack Greg
ory. In Council Bluffs , whcro ho has been
dovernl times during the last summer , ho
was known as Jack Moore. Sheriff Wlso o !
Howard , Xeb , who was among the callera
at the Jail , Identified Williams ( is the man
answering the description of a horscthlcf on
whoso trail ho has been since October 1.
Wlso says Williams stele eeventeen horses
In Scward and adjoining counties the last
t\vo months. Williams this morning seemed
to bo troubled by only olio thing and tint
was that ho would have to appear In court ,
Ho told the officers that he would much
rather that the people nt Loveland had
strung him up than have to face a court.
C. S. Bond of Loveland Identified Williams
as the man who sold him about a week ago
a span of black mares obtained In a trade
with a commission man named Tred Terry ,
in South Omaha. Williams denied having
stolen them , but admitted that he had been
engaged In wholesale horsethlevlng In Iowa
and Nebraska for several months. It has
been learned that Williams had several
horses nnd a buggy nt Olonwood , among the
horaen being two thoroughbreds called Red
Dlrd and White Pool. In talking ot these
thoroughbreds Williams said tint If ho had
been on Hed Bird's back nobody could have
caught him.
M. -Richer , of Mllford , Neb , Identified
Williams as a horsetrader who had called
nt his place several weeks ago. The night
after Williams visit Klcher lest a mare and
a mule , and so far has been unable to get
any trace of the animals AVllllams , when
confronted with Elchcr. admitted being at
his place , but would not admit ho stele the
animals. Ho said , however , that ho might
have gotten them later from another party.
The mule stolen from i. D. Uaughlln ot
Ashland , Neb , the theft ot which led up to
the shooting yesterday , Williams sa > s he got
another man rte procure for him.
I'entleiiUnrs- .
George Trcynor , who eighteen months ago
was n guard at the Iowa penitentiary at Fort
Madison , Is ot the opinion that Williams Is
the same man , who , under the name of Jack
Gregory , served a four > cars' sentence for
horsesteallng. Williams , when seen by
Treynor , at once recognized him , but denied
that ho bad been in the penitentiary. Ho
said ho had frequently passed through Fort
Madison on his way to Chicago with stolen
horsed.
The Council Bluffs authorities arc now
certain from statements made by Williams
that ho had several associates and a close
watch will be kept on the county Jail , as
fears are entertained that they will make
| every effort to effect his escape.
His preliminary hearing on the charge of 11
shootlug with Intent to commit murder was
fixed for this afternoon , but bis wounds will I
irevent him being taken into court and the
earing will have to bo postponed. His
oundcd leg was dressed by Br. Chrlstensen.
\slde from a llttlo soreness , his Injuries
re not very painful.
Word was received from Loveland yceter-
ay morning that Constable Hardln Moss was
estlng easily and that aside from weakness
Is Injuries were not regarded as serious.
\nothcr attempt to probe for the bullet
\hlch lodged In his back will be made.
Itctnlnn nn Attorney.
Williams has retained S. D. Snjder a his
attorney nnd assigned to him the $183 which
lie had on his person when arrested. Later
J. S. Dcnd and William Bradley , fanners
Ivlng near Loveland , attached this money
m proceedings commenced In the superior
court. Bond bought a team of black mires
rom Williams , paving him ? 150. Since
Williams' arrest it has developed that the
mares were etolen. Bradley bought n buggy
from the desperado , paying him $30. Llko
ho marcs , this buggy had been stolen by
Williams.
Deputy Sheriff Slead went to Loveland
yesterday afternoon and brought to tbls
city the two mules which Williams had
here. One was Identified by K I ) . Laugh-
In of Ashland , Neb , as his property , stolen
I from him last Sunday. The other was claimed
I by M. J. Elcher of Mllford , Neb , the anl-
mal having been stolen from him an tho.
night of October 20.
.
The burn from which Williams tried to
get a. horse when corraled by Olllcers Albrn
nnd Jnmes , belonged to FA Dalton and
wns Dalton , who , lifter Albro had knocked
Williams from off the horse , grabbed the
desperado by the throat nnd choked him
almost to death before ho gave up the light
nnd aliened the officers to bind him. Dalton
|
hopes If there la n reword out for Williams'
capture to get a slice of the money.
More Alinul the Jinn.
Sheriff Tiompon and Detective Pound of {
' Lincoln were In the city jeaterdny evening
nnd from them considerable Information wns
secured nboiit Williams. They say Williams
Is ono of the moat desperito horsothlcvcs
operating at this tlmo In the west nud that
there la hardly a county In Nebraska where
ho la not wanted.
Officers Albro nnd Jnmes are sure of some
money for capturing him , ns there are known ,
rewards of $50 each offered by parties In !
Seward nnd Lancaster counties nnd In Lin
coln nnd Wnvcrly. Xeb.
Chief Ulxby ycaterdny made a careful
examination of thu pnpere found among Wil 1
liams' effects nnd they show that between
July 20 and 26 ho was in the vicinity of
Crete with n number of horses and boarded
with a family named Lader Hutu ecu the
latter date and August S ho was In the ,
neighborhood of Lincoln , where he borrowed ,
$300 from one J , n Little , giving n. chattel ]
mortgage on some horses , August 31 ho was
In South Omaha and the papers indicate that
ho sold through or to the Terry Commission
company the team he hnd mortgaged to
Little. October S be was evidently In Atclil-
son , Kan. , and some of the papers would In
dicate that some time during September ho

Mayor Jennings received a. telegram lust |
night from Arthur Line at San Prnnclsco ,
in which ho e.ivs the Plfty-lltst Iowa will
bo mustered out anil leave San Francisco
November 1 and will nrrivo In Council
HUilTa November C nt 8 a in This means
that the regiment will reach hero the day
, bcforo , election. Lino's dispatch to Major
I Jennings confirms the prow dispatches from
San Pranclsco.
i The arrival of the regiment hero at thnt
early date means that the committees In
chaigo ot the reception will 1mc no tlmo
to nparo In completing all the arrange
ments and some hard work will have to be
done between this and tlint date ,
The cxecutlvo committee mot yesterday
morning , but llttlo or no business of Im-
portnnco wns transacted. Colonel C , Q.
Saundcrs , on bchnlf of the Rock Island railway -
way , informed the committee that transfi
portntlon would bo gladly given by the company -
pany If It should bo decided to send a comc
mlttco to meet tbo returning regiment at
Lincoln or some other point on the road.
It wan decided to accept the offer nnd the
following were appointed < i committee by
Mayor Jennings : Colonel C. 0 , Saunders ,
Emmet Tlnlej , I. M. Trojnor , George S.
Wright , J. Q. Anderson. This commlttco
will go to Lincoln the night "before the
regiment Is booked to arrive.
Secretary Tlnlcy received word yesterday
from Randolph , Uulhrlo Center and Shen-
Jandoah that each of these towns would send
a band on the day of the reception , while
Knoxvlllo vvas figuring on sending two. The
Indications are that there will bo plenty
of bands and music.
A matter that Is giving the committee
considerable concern la the question of
whether the city will bo able to provide
meals for the Immense crowds that It Is
believed will bo In the city on the dny of
the reception. The committee on arrange
ments , ot which. Dr. Macrno Is chairman ,
was Instructed to investigate and make an
estimate ot the number of people that the
hotels , restaurants and lunch houses would
bo nblo to feed. Severn ! ot the church eo-
cieties had announced their Intention of
providing meals on the day of the recep
tion , hut none ot them seem to have made
any movn In that direction , except Unity
guild of Grace Episcopal church.
At a meeting of the parade committee
last night Colonel J. J. Steadnian was se-
lectcd as chief marshal of the day , with
authority to appoint his own aides.
The commtttco on decorations Is booked
for a meeting tonight at committee headquarters - .
quarters In the Grand. I
The sale of "I Have , Have You ? " ribbons
continues with unabated vigor and a largo
amount of monej will be raised In this
manner. The committee on badges expects
to hnvo the official reception button .on sale
within a day or two This Ijutton Is to sell
for 10 cents. The "endless chain" letter
scheme , started by a committee of High
school graduates , la working well and bj
lost evening Treasurer Knox vvas able to
report over $100 In the treasury. The
scheme Is taking well , especially In out
side towns , and the fact that replies have
been received from cities as far ea t as
Now York and as far v.eet as Pocatello ,
Idaho , demonstrates that the letters are
covering a largo territory. Wh.Uo only 25
cents Is asked for In the letter , It Is pleasing
to note that many nro liberal enough to
send In fiO cents or $1. The largest single
contribution received to date Is one for $3
from C. A. Davis of Sioux City. This waa
received In reply to n letter mailed to Mr.
Davis by Lucius Wells of this city.

FORT DODGE , la. , Oct. 23. ( Special )
A serious condition of affairs exists hero as
the result of a local leo famine. The For
Dodge Ice dealers exhausted their supply o ,
ice two or three days ago , nnd since then
have boon placing orders outside to sup
ply their trade until the season bad closed ,
The freight car famine , however , which Is
especially severe in this part of Iowa , made
It impossible to ship the Ice In hero In siiffl-
clently large quantities , and tbo result Is
that those who purchase leo In smalle
quantities have been unable to get any a
all , while those -who use large quantitie
have not received nearly all that thoj
needed. The meat dealers arc the spccla
sufferers , and sorco of thefn have be n compelled
polled to Jet then meat spoil.

What suffering from falling of the womb , whites , painful or irregular menses , or any disease of
the feminine organs is. A man sympathizes and pities , but does not know and can not realize
what terrible agony a woman patiently endures every month. Robbed of her health , her beauty
fades , and her hope and happiness are soon gone. But every woman ought to know that the
most of this suffering is unnecessary. Medical science has produced a great medicine that will
banish it. Wine of Cardui has relieved more distressed women than any other human agency.
