LINCOLN, Neb., July . (Special.)-.
There Is Joy In the wigwams of the local
democrats who have kept the candl of the
Cleveland faith burning during the last
eight jrears of Bryan supremacy. Th;
liryan followers are still faithful to their
fallen leader and regard him as the great
est of living democrats. Many of them
hoped to the very last that their Idol would
win out In his fight against the Parker
forces, and they turned sadly away from
the bulletins when the victory of the New
York man was announced.
Albert Watkius, who was postmaster of
Lincoln during the first administration of
Cleveland and has been Irreconcilable since
sryan landed In the saddle at the memora
lle convention eight years ago, was Jubilant
hen the Parker nominal. Sir "w.a announ
ced, lie announced his purpose to take
off his coal once more and work for the
democratic ticket.

b was clues npon us. Its carried a knife
la his hand and made directly for his wife.
She uttered a cry and turned toward tha
house. He grasped her by tha throat and
stabbed her twice In quick succession.'
Mrs. Stromburt says Zeller then turned
toward her, but she had whipped up hir
horse and drove screaming down the road.
Mr. Burkamp heard his daughter scraaia
and hastened to her aid. He was niat at
the door by Zeller, knife In hand. Mrs.
Hurknmn came toward the door from the
kitchen. M
'What are you doing T papa, asked him,
Mrs, Burkamp sobbed.
"Michael never said one word, but struck
papa over the head with a bla iron bar.
He fell down. When I ran oul papa was
getting to his feet and Michael was walking
away.
" 'I'm gone," papa said, and he held his
hr.nd to his side, so. (Here she described It.)
I helped him to a chair at the side of "the
house and hastened for a wet doth. He
didn't say a word and when I came back
he Just laid bis head on my shoulder, and
that was all."
Beside her sat her son Charles and his
sister. Mrs. Naugls. With eyes swollen and
red with weeping the little 13-year-old girl
of Michael Zeller sat huddled on the floor.
Her brother John, aged X7, stood with
bowod head, gTlef -stricken as the rest.
Two hours before they had lost father,
mother or sister.
"A week ago he chased Michael, my
brother, from home," said John. "Michael
t.m only one arm, but Grandpa Burkamp
! no cars of him and he helped about the
plane for his board.
"Father had threatened to kill us all
many times. Yesterday he shat twice at
Willie. Ha shot once at me a year ago. He
aimed the gun at me yesterday, too, but I
dodged Into a cornfield and ran down the
hill."
Charles Burkamp, aged 29 years, son of
the murdered man, made this statement:
Always Dsngeroui Man.
"My sister Elizabeth married Zeller
twonty-Ove years ago. They had four chil
dren, all of whom survive their mother.
Lizzie waa S years old and her eldest son
William Is 2i
"Zeller has been te cause of his family's
unhapplness for eighteen year Often he
has made threats. of killing and I urged
Lizzie to leave him and hare him placed
under bonds to keep the peace. She was
terribly afraid of him and It did little good
to talk with her. Willie threatened to kill
his father on one occasion when he was
beating bis mother, but Lizzie always pro
tested and didn't want to have him hurt.
"For the past week Zeller had been drunk
most of the time. Hs has been a hard
drinker and drink has caused this awful
tragedy. I think he was under the In
fluence of liquor today. But he Is a sly
fellow and a bad one."
Zeller is about S feet 7 Inches in height
and weighs 180 pounds. He has a dark
moustache and dark complexion. There Is
a scar over one of his eyes and his nose is
Inclined toward the Roman. He Is a Ger
man by descent. The Burkamps are Ger
mans. When Mrs. Stromberg left the scene of
the killing she hastened along toward
Forest Lawn cemetery, shouting; as she
went. Henry Burkamp, son of the mur
dered man, who was working- In a nearby
field, heard the alarm and hastened to the
house. His father was dead when he ar
rived and Zeller had disappeared. His
mother was so stricken that It was with
difficulty that she could tell klm what had
happened, although he surmised who had
dons the killing. None knew at that time
that Mrs. Zeller lay dying In a field not 100
feet from the house.
Police Are NotMad.
Mrs. Burkamp, daughter-in-law of the
murdered .man, hastened over a rough road
to Forest Lawn cemetery, a mile beyond,
and the nearest placa with telephone com
munication. The police were notified and
Detective Dunn and Officer Good were
sent to the scene.
A squad of .other officers, Including De
tectives Donahue, Hettfeld and Officer Mor
rison, followed about two hours later.
Coroner Brailey arrived at tha scene
about 1 p. m. and removed the two bodies
to the morgue.
All afternoon the offloers searched the
woods and fields for six miles about, but
secured only meager traces of the mur
derer. His son, William, said he had met
his father about noon walking- toward their
home, but that the older man had turned
away when he saw his son. The latter'a
suspicions were immediately aroused and
a few minutes later he met a neighbor
who told him the news of the murder.
Mrs. Burrlght of MM Curtis street says
she was working in her kitchen shortly
after 1 o'clock when a neighbor's child ran
In and Inquired why Zeller was running
so fast. 8 he says she replied that he was
probably trying to catch his horse.
"I thought nothing more of the incident
until I heard of the murder," she said.
Upon this clue the officers worked all
through the hot sun and beating . down
high weeds In a nearby grove. Zeller was
not seen again. Some have advanced the
theory that he may have committed sui
cide. Search (or Keller.
Captain Dunn, with a posse, searched for
the murderer till late last night, but were
unable to catch him. The police think that
If the man is alive It Is possible that he
may return to his home and two officers
have been placed there In case he does. The
following is the man's description: Age,
52; height, 5 feet 7 inches; very dark com
plexion and dark moustache; face tanned
and weatherbeaten; when last seen was
wearing a black sateen shirt, black soft
hat, blue overalls and heavy work shoes.
He has a faint scar over the left eyebrow
and a lump about the size of a hickory nut
on the left arm.
The posse trailed him to Forest Lawn
cemetery, but there lost him. The rifle he
Is said to have Is a slxteen-shot repeater.

The Burlingon is the only line with its own train service be
