THE OMAHA DAILY MEEt "WEDNESDAY, APHIL 15, 1003. 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 be heard In several numbers. The talented baritone, Jo Barton, will sing a solo, se. lected, and Prof. Albln Huster'a violin solo will be "Mazuke De Concert," Musln. Lit tle Marie Snowden will sing and dance. Mr. Frank Dunlop, the official entertainer for the Knlghta of Ak-Sar-Ben, will contribute some of his best Imitations, and Manager Carl Relter of the Orpheum. will spring his latest stories in bis monologue. Tickets are now on aale at the box office and those who have already purchased theirs from the committeemen may exchange them for re served seats. Trinity Cathedral Parish. At the meeting of the members of Trlnit cathedral parish Monday H. W. Yates and E. Wskeley were elected ward-ns an! 8. D. Barkalow. F. H. Davis, R. 8 Hall, Quy C. Barton. Louis S. Reed, Frank Hal ler and J, C. French were elected vestry men. The vestrymen have received the nominations of the bishop for the position of dean of the cathedral,- but ao far have taken no action, the matter having been deferred unt'.l the newly eleoted officers take charge. AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA City Treuutir Hows ApprsvM Boodi of School Board Members. 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. City Coaaell Toalffht. , This evening the city council will meet In adJourntd aesslon to take action on some grading contracts and It may be that the two ordinances pertaining to railroads will be read for the third time. Bids will be received today for the grading of Q atreet from Twenty-third to Twenty-fourth. In pining Weako s s Why go through 'the same old experience this spring ?

An other bit to bo compered will be for the grading of -the allejyrjHwecn Twenty-first and ywenty-aeconcfctiicets from K to L. This work will necesnafc the removal of about 11,000 cublo yafeja of dirt. When these bld8 are received It Is In terred that the couni ll, will proceed to let contracts. It looks now as if the two rail road ordinances, one regulating the speed of trains and the other the ringing of bells, at crossings, would pass without any opposition. Anneal Troop Dance. Th annual dance of the South Omah Cavalry troop will bo held at the Llvo Stock exchange dining hall on inursaay evening of this week.

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.

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. ROOTED IN THE DLOOD.
