TURX TWO COWS INTO MINT William Frank Miller and Wife Outdo the Golden Goose. GREAT CROP OF BOVINE MORTGAGES U ben Money Lenders Learn How They Have Been Dnped They. Lock ' Ip Mother and Her Babe. The facility with which; William Frank Miller and bis wife, Elsie Julia Miller, were able to make money by mortgaging two cows led to the arrest yesterday of Mrs. Miller on charges of obtaining money under false pretenses and disposing of mortgaged property. Ovlde Vlen, former Justice .of the peace, and chattel loan broker, filed In Judge Bryant's office the complaint under which Mrs. Miller was arrested yesterday morning In Glenwood. A warrant has also been Issued for the arrest of her husband, but thus far he baa evaded the officers. The Millers formerly lived ,ia this city, at 2615 Avenue C, where they owned two cows, which for money makers to their own era put the goose that laid the golden eggs in. the old fable well In the background. So far, mortgages on the two bovlnes have been brought to light aggregating $225, and It Is alleged others are to be beard from. Ovlde Vlen, after seeing the two ani mals, was induced to loan $60 upon them. Another chattel loan broker parted with $25 on the same two milk producers. In riattsmouth, Neb., Miller mortgaged the animals for $100 and yesterday It was dis covered that he had obtained $15 from a firm of loan brokers In Omaha on the same two cows. Justice Bryant has In hla possession as silent witnesses In the case against Mrs. Miller five of the chattel mortgages which she and her husband are alleged to have placed upon the two cows. Miller and his wife did not sign these mortgages all In the same way. In one Miller appears as Frank Miller and his wife as Elsie Miller. In another Miller signed the mortgage as William F. Miller and his wife as Julia Miller. In a third Miller signed himself plain Wlllam Miller, while his wife appears as Julia Elsie Miller. In another Millet signed his full name,1 William Frank Miller, and his wife signed herself as Mrs, J. E. Miller. ' Mrs. Miller Is young, with three small children. The youngest, a 2-year-old boy, Is In the county Jail with her. When last heard of Miller was In Louis ville, Neb., where be escaped arrest by playing a trick upon the sheriff, v Hi whereabouts became known to the authori ties here and they notified the Nebraska sheriff that Miller waa In Louisville. ' The sheriff went there for him and ran across Miller, who told the sheriff that be was a cousin of the man he was looking for and would assist him in getting 'the culprit. They went to town together and Miller sug gested that the sheriff keep in the back ground, while Miller went and got his cousin. So far as the sheriff knows. Miller Is still going, as he never' set eyes on him again. . ' GRAND JURY F0RMARCH TERM J. II. Pace of Council Bluffs la Fore man Man Chargced with Burglary Wants More to Eat la JalL Judge O. D.

SUPREME COURT REORGANIZATION BILL Sennte Passes It After Mnrh Discus sion Telephone lMbby Demon strates Its Strength Trouble on Titni Reservation. (From a Staff Correspondent.) DES MOINES, March 25. (Special.) The Iowa house went on record this morning as favoring the election of United States senators by direct vote of the people. The Hughes concurrent resolution memorialis ing congress to take aptlon in that direc tion was taken up and discussed. There was practically no opposition to the prin ciple Involved. Tbe resolution was passed. 76 to 16, after It had been amended by striking out tbe reference to a convention to propose the amendment, leaving it to congress to take the initiative direct. The house also passed a resolution looking to an amendment to the constitution of the state of Iowa, providing for 108 members of the house Instead of 100. This Is for the purpose of giving to each county a member ot the house, leaving nine extra onea to be distributed among the larger counties of the state. In view of the pas. sage of this concurrent resolution It Is expected that all efforts to secure a re districting of tbe state will be dropped and unless the amendment Is adopted the present apportionment of representatives will remain. The house had a special order In the bill to create a state Insurance department. Its author had not observed that It carried an appropriation and would therefore require a two-thirds vote of tbe house end after some discussion it was discovered that there was not such a majority for the bill and It was referred to the appropriations committee. The bill to provide for organl tatlon and regulation of loan and trust companies was also referred to a com mittee. The bill to recognize the Iowa Poultry association and give it $1,000 a year was passed. ' Supreme Court Reorganisation. The senate this morning failed lo pass the bill to provide, that teachers' certificates may be issued to graduates of colleges on presentation of diplomas, showing comple tion ot normal courses, the vote being 23 to 21. Tbe senate then called up as a special order the bill to reorganize the Iowa su preme court and rearrange the terms thereof. The house had changed the bill which was Introduced, cutting out all save the Increase of salary, which was reducei'j so that only $1,000 a year would be added.. The senate Judiciary committee substituted: the orlgnal bill, which provided for a sal ary of $6,000, and for practically continuous terms of court during the year and sub mission of cases only as fast as they could be reached. The bill waa warmly defended by Senators Healey, Hazleton, Courtrlght, Hubbard, Trewln and others, and opposed by Senator Blanchard. In behalf of the bill it was said there was a popular demand among lawyers that' the method ot doing business In the Iowa supreme court should 'be changed and that oral arguments should be heard on all cases. The opinions of the Iowa supreme court did not stand aa well as those of many other states. Tbe bill seeks to remedy this. Blanchard contended that the bill meant nothing and would accomplish nothing ot what was Intended. The senate finally passed the supreme court reorganization bill, 27 to It. Telephone BUI Opposed. . In the bouse Carter, chairman ot the committee on municipal corporations, by request, moved that ths Sweeley bill for regulation of charges on long distance tele phone lines be sent back to his committee. He made the motion because a majority of the members of the committee had re quested it. Representatives of the telephone companies had arrived in the city this morning, and had induced a majority ot the members to take this action. Sweeley said the bill had been consid ered many weeks by the committee and It was unnecessary to send It back to the same committee again within two weeks of the time for adjournment. He declared that tbe movement to recall the bill meant the work ot the outsiders In defeating the "bill. But It was referred back to tbe com mittee, tbe telephone lobby having demon strated Its power to control the house. Governor Cummins today appointed as commissioner of labor statistics, E. D. Brtgham, an engineer of this city, who was largely backed by the railroad unions. Trouble on Reservation. Bad news comes from the Indian reser vation In Tama county, where it ia alleged the Indians have resolved upon reslstence to the movement of the State Board of Health to fumigate the reservation and burn the clothing and tents Infected with smallpox 'germs. It Is reported that the Indians have gathered up most of their belongings and have sent them to a barn at Montour, where they have been stored and the barn Is locked and tbey defy any one to enter it. There is some talk of ask ing the governor to order a company of militia to proceed to the reservation to look after the matter and assist the presi dent of the State Board ot Health in clean ing up the reservation.
