BODY TRACED TO THE RIVER
Wagon Track i round tt Almost Inacceis ble
Point Net r Eiter.
WOMAN SAW THE WAGON DRIVEN AWAY
Mrs. Joan Andreas ae Two Men
Were la Vehicle and Heard
It nolnc to River
Hoar Before.
There li evidence to show that the body
of Mrs. Idella Roue Knight, who probably
was poisoned by her husband a week ago
last Saturday night, may have been thrown
Into the river at or near the foot of
Nicholas street.
The evidence Is furnished by Mr. and Mrs.
John Andreaa, who live along the river
bank beyond the Ice houaes at the end i t
Nicholas street.
Saturday night, April 4. Mr. and Mrs.
Andreaa were awakenod between 11 o'clock
and midnight by a wagon and horse being
driven by their house and through their
yard to the river, but short dlstanw away,
and an hour or so afterwards they heard
the wagon return. The dogs were disturbed
by the noise and kept up a barking.
gees Wstos aad Ttrm Men.
Mrs. Andreas looked out of the window and
saw the outfit driving back through the
yard toward town. She then thought that
the party there were two men In the wagon
and It was drawn by a single horse had
lost the road and had turned back toward
town. The horse, she thought, bad a short
tall and further than this she did not take
any particular notice of the outfit.
It was not until a few days ago that they
heard of the disappearance of Mrs. Knight
and the report that the body had been
buried or thrown Into the river. The wagon
Incident then recurred to Mr. Andreas and
he determined to follow the trail through
his yard toward the river. This be and
two or three of the neighbors did and thiy
discovered that the wagon tracks led di
rectly to the river, through a copse of wil
lows, the tracks showing distinctly through
the willow underbrush crushed down by thn
wheels.
Footprints In the Hand.
teaching the aand bars, the wagon tracks
topped, and from this point human foot
prints were distinct, as was a (rack as If
a box or trunk had been dragged and thrown
Into the river. The water there at the time
was quiet and about fifteen feet doep near
where the footprints ended.
The water was low and still at that time,
but now a heavy turbid current flows there
frojn the high water of the last few days.
The wagon tracks are still visible, and also
the footprints, aa well as the trail of the
box or trunk.
The point Is a good one for hiding a body
In the river, as under fordlnary conditions
a heavy box would sink In the wet sands
and probably never be recovered. Efforts
were made yesterdsy to. drag the river
there, but the current la too swift and the
volume of water too great. I
Place la Seldom Visited.
The hypothesis that Knight might have
taken the body of hla wife to the river at
thla point finds some credence from the
fact that the locality Is very seldom visited
and can only be reached by Parker street
north of the Stors Brewing company's es
tablishment on Sherman avenue, and thence
couth on Eleventh street to what would be
a continuation of Nicholas street to the
railroad tracks. A blind road leads from
the and of Nicholas street up the river to
the Andreaa place.
Chief Donahue . yesterday received a
message from Chief Ingalls of Cheyenne
stating merely that Knight passed through
there Mcaday enroute to the coast.
Whether the Cheyenne chief accompanied
Knlghl to. the depot and wished him well
upon his departure from that city la not
stated In -the dispatch. The Cheyenne
sleuth bad a full description and a photo
graph of Knight and knew that he was
wanted In Omaha for murder. He also
knew that Knight would In all probability
visit his paramour In Cheyenne, but with
all this Information at hand, be leta the
fugitive "pass through enroute to the
coast."
Monday morning Chief Donahue, to
strengthen the chances of catching Knight
at Cheyenne,' telegraphed the sheriff there
to get the description from Chief Ingalls
and assist In looking for the man. Later
In the day the sheriff telegraphed Chief
Donahue that Chief Ingalls hsd refused to
let him have the description of Knight.
There Is apparently some Jealousy In the
police circles of the Wyoming city.
Waited for Hla C'kanee.
The wsy In which Knight borrowed Mel
Dusxnbcrry's horse and wagon Indicates
that the rig was wanted by Knight for foul
work. Early In the week preceding the
Saturday night on which Mrs. Knight dis
appeared her husband told Mel Dusenberry
that he would want to use his wagon "some
night." He reminded Duaenberry of this
severs! times during the week and In speak
ing of it he would always say that he
would -require the rig at night. Saturday
evening, toon after o'clock, as Dusenberry
drove past the Knight residence on the way
home, he was balled by Knight. This time
Knight told Dusenberry that he would
probably require the wagon that night.
Dusenberry drove on to his home and
after supper. Instead of taking the horse
to the barn at Twentieth and Nicholas
streets, aa was his custom, he kept it
standing In front of his house for several
hours, thinking that Knight would call for
It. Soon after o'clock he took the horse
to the barn and than returned' home and
went to bed. About 10:30 Knight came
and woke him up and told htm that he
must have the rig at once.
Hitched Vp the Horse.
Dusenberry got up and went to the bara
with Knight He aays he hitched up the
horse and then rode with Knight over to
the residence of the latter and then went
home and to bed again. He adds that he
gave the key of the barn to Knight, so
thst the horse could be put back Into Its
stall without waking him up again. The
police, however, are Inclined to believe
that Dusenberry did not leave Knight at
the letter's ' residence, but continued on
with him In the work of disposing of Mrs.
Knight's body.
The fact that Knight told Dusenberry
that he might want the horse any night
that week Is taken as evidence that he
was waiting all week for an opportunity to
give his wife the poison. That the chance
came Saturday evening Is believed by the
police. Certainly, they reason. Knight
would not haul Mel Dusenberry out of
bed at 10:30 at night to get the horse and
wagon for the purpose of moving house
hold effects. Then the fact remains that
none of the household effects was moved
at any time excepting the trunk that wr.s
taken to the Union depot by an express
man Monday afternoon.
"Spod" Parish brneflt Friday.
"Spud's" benefit at the Orpheum Friday
afternoon promises to be the biggest event
of the kind ever pulled off here. The com
mittee consisting of George P. Cronk, J. H.
McDonald, W. W. Cols, H. B. Peters, James
Alnscow, W. B. Taylbr and Carl Belter have
canvassed the city with much success, for
"Spud" Farrish was well known,' his friends
being galore. Many -contributions from
members of the theatrical profession are
being received from different parts of .the
country. Will M. Cressey, who appeared
here early In the season, sent 320 for twenty
tickets. The program will be lengthy and
varied. By permlmlon of the Orpheum com
pany, who donated the use -of the theater,
lights and tlcketa, three strong acts se
lected from this week's regular bill will
appear. These are Musical Dale, who Is
acknowledged foremost of bell-ringers and
a finished artist with harmonicas; Rice and
Walters, the comedy acrobata, whose act
provokes a scream of laughter, and Ken
nedy and Rooney, a clever pair of eccentric
dancers with something out of the ordinary.
In music the program will be rich, for be
sides Musical Dale, some fine local talent
will contribute. The orchestras from the
Boyd and the Orpheum, by permission of
W. J. Burgess and the Orpheum company
will combine and render a selected over
ture. Prof."- George Oellenbeck'a Juvenile
banjo, mandolin and guitar orchestra, will

MEETING LIKELY TO BE HELD THIS MONTH
City ('ovarii Has a Kambtr of ftrad
t la Bills to Pass On at Its
Meeting; gehedaled for
Tonight.
City Treasurer E. L. Howe had a sudden
change of mind Tuesday and without any
comment he approved the bonds of Lott,
Kubat, Loechner, Miller and Schroeder as
members of the Board of Education. In
Justification of hla action Howe displayed
a letter signed by A. H. Murdock, city at
torney, which stated that the bonds were
all right. Howe waa placed In a peculiar
position, as the bonds given by the 'mem
bers of the board mentioned were Issued by
the same company which bonds the city
treasurer and the school treasurer of 8outh
Omaha. It he had Insisted upon turning
down the bonds offered him on account of
their being worthless his own bond would
then be broucht Into queatlon and there
might have been plenty of grief for Mr.
Howe. As five members' bonds have been
accepted a meeting of the board may be
held at any time during the present month.
Miller, Kubst and Lott aay there was no
Intention to hold a meeting this month, but
the action of Howe has put them on their
mettle and a apeclal meeting will be called
for some day thla week. At this meeting
teachers may be elected and perhaps some
Janitors chosen.
One member said that If Howe had kept
hla nose out of the deal a special meeting
would not have been held, but as it la the
members are mad and propose showing Mr.
Howe that he Is not the whole works even
If he docs handle the cash for the board.
A. V. Miller, president of the board. Is
still confined to bis home on account of Ill
ness, but he Is able to get about the house
and hopes to be able to attend a special
meeting of the board to be held the latter
part of the week.
As neither Morrill, Bock or Laverty filed
bonds with the city treasurer yesterday
those who are Interested in school board af
faire say that Treasurer Howe Is still in
the play to block a meeting of the board.
The plan, so it was divulged last night, was
to let Ave members file bonds and attempt
to hold a meeting. When a call for a spe
cial meeting Is issued the three member
who have not filed bonds will proceed to
secure an Injunction restraining the board
from meeting or transacting business of any
kind. Since the plans of the three mem
bers who still withhold their bonds are
known those who have filed proposed to
start In and give the bunch a lively chase.
Knight Xot Paid Yet.
The cashier at Swift's stated to a Bee re
porter yesterday afternoon thst no demand
for the $12 due F. E. Knight had been made.
As far as the cannier is concerned the com
pany still owed Knight a week's wages. In
quiry around the plant shows that Knight
was not known to any extent. He was a
storekeeper In the bam house and with over
1.000 men empoyed the disappearance of
one man woula not attract any attention.
Those who happened to be acquainted with
Knight say that he was of peculiar dispo
sition and did not make friends readily.
While at work at Swlffa he reported
promptly for work and quit when the whis
tie blew. Beyond this little is remembered
of him.
Smallpox Breaks Oat.
Two eases at smallpox were reported at
the health office yesterday ' The nst, waa
Mrs. Fairfield, Thirty-fourth and K' atreets.
An hour later Samuel Channell, 1 Thirty
fourth and H atreeta, waa reported to be
down with the disease. The health offlcera
decided to remove both patients to the
emergency hospital at once.
During the. winter only half a dosen small
pox patients had to be cared for by the
city and the officials were congratulating
themselves yesterday on the low expense
account for emergency cases as compared
with year ago. A thorough Investiga
tion Is to be made In the locality where
these two cases were reported yesterday
and every effort will be made o stamp out
the disease.

AMERICAN COMPANY SEEKS MONOPOLY

Berlin Chamber of Commerce Reports
on Move, Ovinia, However, that
Fatherland Will Be Able
to Resist Attack.
BERLIN, April 14. The manner In which
the American Tobacco company cornered
the market for cigarette tobacco is reported
upon by the Berlin Chamber of Commerce
to the Prussian commerce minister, Herr
Moeller, as follows:
The American Tobacco tru t, In a skilful,
well planned manner, secured tin outpiu o?
cigarette tobacco In order to meet us In
creased demand for rw tobacco by buyl lg
not only In the markets of producing coun
tries, but in the chief staple markets. Tne
wsrthoutes are at prrsem empt.- and prl ei
for the cheaper qualities have risen to to M)
per cent. K cannot, however, be asserte 1
that the American :rohat--es were made
for purposed of np-culat 'in or to control
the marketj of the world. They appear, on
ttio other hand, merely t have been made
13 cover in- trust's enormous demand. Si
far ii ths German product is concerncj th i
cheaper qualities wei-e Loiight. but i i
America the dearer kinds v.en ulsu pu.
cliaed. While It Is hardly planned to make the
German raw lobiioeo market dependeu
upon American Interests, all. I ihi domestic
Industry feels keenly the detlolen, y In rar
material and the enhancement of prices.
The market tor cigar tobacco has fel. lh;
Influence of the trust to n iestr degree, of
course the trust completely controls Ntna
raw tobacco supply lor liavnna clg.ir?.
The trust beau operations in ths German
cigarette market with ths purchase of h
factory of George A. Jaxmatxl of l)rerie i
at tha beginning of 1901. Since then it his
succeeded in increasing its business fuily
5j per cent.
In order to create a large market for Its
pioJuci the tru.-t granu 1 bt ral reba',
but ther; Is nothing unusual l i this me hoi
of do.ng business apart from the tact tint
rebates are given even tor small quanti
ties. On ths other hand It appears that th
trust de lvers l!i rlsarett.'s when--v.T l.OJ)
are ord;red. Fui thermore. 1' has develope 1
a syfctem of bounties which is stronxiy ciis
apptoved of li) German business c rcvei.
We believe the trust Intend to try to se
cure control oi the entire German cigaretts
market, but there is nothing to indicate
that it will foon sucreed. The Giman
cxareUe Industry Is strong enough 1 i cap
ital and technical equipment to lake up th ;
fight.

MUSIC AND MUSICIANS
A very fair audience of the prominent
musical people of Omaha, Including a good
rerj-esentatton of the professionals, assem-
L bled tt. the Kountse Memorial church last
nlghftovhear. what. Mr.. Uuscaqen- aa jo
offer as artist and manager for his third
concert.
As an artist, his offerings were highly
acceptable. He is a aklllful violinist, ab
solutely above all attempt at trickery, or
anything bordering on the illegitimate, the
"Remenyl" type, for Instance, Ood rest hla
soul. Robert Cuscaden is true to the high
est precepts and ideals of his art. His
tone is not as big as it will bo, but It Is
beautiful. It Is eolld. It is certain and It has
a finesse to It which one marvels at some
times in a man who is still so young. But
he is not young when tt comes to the
conception, Interpretation and delivery ot a
composition. Here Is his maturity In evi
dence.. His best work last night waa done
in tho Landsberg sonata, and in the Rlea
numbers. The Pagtnlnl numbers oould be
easily dono without and the Roy Smith
-Norwegian Legend" was good music, but
not sufficiently Interesting to hold one's at
tention. One would like to hear It again,
for Hoy Smith has ability and Is a good
wrlterof songs; therefore detailed criticism
of It may well bo deferred.
Mr. Slgmund Landsberg's aonata for vio
lin and piano waa the piece de realstance
of the evening. It surprised the musicians
beyond doubt. It ia one of the moat Inter
esting things that haa yet appeared In vio
lin literature of modern times. It ia spon
taneous, virile, emotional In turn and there
is not a monotonous measure in It. Mr.
Landsberr Is indeed entitled to all of tbe
applause he got, and more than that, he Is
entitled to the thauks of the musical com
munity for the production of what may,
without exaggeration, be termed a master
piece. Mr. Cuscaden lent his best ability to the
portrayal of Mr. Landsberg'a Ideas, tbe
composer himself playing the piano part
with Inspiration.
Mrs. Lincoln Hypes of Council Bluffs snng
several numbers and was well received. Mrs.
Hypes. has a beautiful voice and she Is a
very Intelligent artist, with a tendency to
do some things that thrill one, and at other
times the tone lacks concentration and ot
course falls short of expectstioa. Mrs.
Hypes seems to be struggling at times be
tween two systems of tone-production, and
when ehe holds to the one and foraakea the
other she will be heard to better advantage.
Mrs. Hypes Is evidently a musician and she
is certainty a aecinea acquisition io iocai
musical circlet. Her little encore, "The
Gap of the Hedge," was given beautifully
and with artistic grace ad libitum.
