The rffprts of the police during the last twenty-four hours have failed to brina; out anything; new In the Wheeler murder cuse. liut there lia8 be n no dlminuntlon In ac tivity and at any moment the whole story of tiii crime may be laid bare. The ferret inn out of thin mystery Is made doubly hard for the jxiliee Iwc.-mse of the charac ter of the people who are believed to know something: ubout It. Frank E. Wheeler, it Is positively believed, served as the dupe of a low criminal clus through his own wife, and his unsnspctliiK. confiding nature made hlin enry prev. When ho innrrled Mrs. Jonns Iteynnlds he Immediately was thrown among former convicts and lawless men. who almost made n headquarters of his own house. These fellows have been In the. hands of the io"c" before. They are hardened, experienced law breakers, who ;ire not to lie led Into a. betrayal of the killing of Wheeler by any ordinary method employed by the authorities in this or any other city to Induce unwilling lips to tell what they might. The undertaking Is a delicti to one and may at any moment be undone by some Ill-spoken word or question. The greatest hope lies In Mrs. Wheeler, who, with the negro, James Dlggs, Is still In Jail. Women will break sooner than men, but 'in this Instance the police have a person who is its acquainted with crime and as difficult to work upon as a woman can be. Iln, Wheeler Mill Hum. Mr. Wheeler wns again taken before Captain Punn yesterday morning for a short time, but at the termination of the Interview matters were about as before. Again nt 6 o'clock last night the woman was li d from the matron's department Into the captain's office, but slv still maintained her original declaration of titter Ignorance as to the death of hor husband. She showed nnmlstakablo siens of breaking after the Interview with Captains Mostyn and Dunn Saturday afternoon and evening, and it Is brlieved If. she , has withheld anything which might throw light on the Identity of her husband's murderer It will not be long b-f n; the truth will force (, Wny out.'

Coroner Broiley held an inquest jester day afternoon. The Inquest was neither lengthy nor sensational. The Jury re- turned a verdict that Wheeler came to his death from blows strurk by a person or by person, unknown to the Jury, which recommended that the parties now in custody of the police a. id being held on suspicion of having been Implicated In the crime be held for further Investigation. Only "a few witnesses wore Introduced at the Inquest. Dr. Mack told of the result of the autopsy nnd Detective Drummy answered a number of questions asked by the Jurors who were desirous of learning something of the records of Mrs. Wheeler and James Disss. Detective Drumniy's j replies were In line with what has been published. George Deal of S22 South Thirteenth street, where Wheeler lived from February ! to October of last ; ear. told of overhear- j lug numerous conversations and quarrels between the woman and the mun who was killed. Deal said Mrs. WhcMer called there nearly every pay day to see Wheeler, she then being Mia. Reynolds. Deal overheard conversations regarding '.lie woman saving money for Wheeler. Neither Mrs. Wheeler nor Dlggs were prw.nt at the Inquest. The body of Wheeler was prepared to be liken to th old family home at Oreenleaf, Kan., and left on the 1:1ft o'clock Missiurl Pacific ara In in charee "of ti e two brothers who came Here for that purpose. The wife expressed no regret ot netng unable to be present at the funeral, nor did she seem to mind that the nrrunwnienta would be In other hands than hers. Frank E.

IS.-To the Kdltor of The Bee: Senator Perkins haa introduced a bill in congress in which all persons who are friendly to the preservation of the wild game and song-birds will be deeply In terested. It is intended to give the presi dent authority to designate such areas in the public forest reserves as should In his opinion be set aside for the protection of game or of other animals, birds or Hah, and be recognized as a breeding place therefor. The bill further provides that when such areas have been so designated, hunting, trapping, killing or capture of game or other animals, birds or fish upon the lands of the United States within the limits of said areas shall be unlawful. Tbe maxi mum penalty for the violation of the pro visions of the' act Is a fine of $j0 and six months' imprisonment. The act is not intended to cover the pro tection of such birds and animals as are, or may hereafter be, declared injurious by the luws of the state or territory in which such reserves are situated. It is the pur pose of the act to protect from trespass the public lands of the I'nltcd States and the Htilnials, birds and fish which may be thereon, and not to Interfere with the op eration of the local game laws as affecting stnte or territorial lands. The National Association of Audubon So- I elegies is working energetically in the Inter est of this measure, and it solicits the co operation of all who are In favor of the establishment of the proposed game refuges or reservations. All wild animal lift; Is gradually being reduced by Are and gun. and It Is high time that something practicul be done to save what Is left. Tho National Association of Audubon So cieties is an Incorporated body, organized to secure protection for wild birds and ani mals. It is not yet endowed, but Is entirely dependent on membership fees for funds with which to carry on its work. An an nual membership is $n, and the entire sum Is used for actual protection work In the several branches. The officers work with out pny. and they earnestly appeal to the public for aid in the great ecenonilc and aesthetic work of bjrd protection. A few hundred additional members Just now wil. enable the society to greatly enlarge Iti work. I Petalled reports of the work of the asso ciation will be cheerfully mailed on appli cation to me at 141 Broadway. New York City.. WILLIAM DITTO I ER. President. SMggesls Alienee. 'WASHINGTON. D. C, F b. 24.-To the Editor of Tho Bee: It seems to me that western cities ara sufficiently misrepre sented and misunderstood here in the east. This Is -not altogether due to the fabrica tions of press correspondents. The Crowe rn.su gave Omaha notoriety, not fame, i But Omaha, In youthful gullibility. Is reaching out f.ir this false fame even as a cred ulous child grasps at a red-hot penny. Tll "eW of Omaha dilate upon tho I shame of It all; they proclaim to the world that their city is now a hot-bed of vice nnd will henceforth be even worse. The local butchers, bakers and candlestick makers are interviewed and give vent to such rnbld Junk as "I am shocked, horri fied," "This is a travesty on Justice," "Our fair city Is now Just entering upon ,runi "hout this very unusual case and "nvr(l their rhetoric for a better purpose. It may not be too lato. now to Institute a campaign of discreet silence anent the subject. Ordinary forethought suggests such a policy; reason demands It. R. H.

A Inrge number of voters many hun dredshave agreed to drop politics In the coming' election and "vote only for men known to be honorable men. and for no candidate for ho council unless he will declare himself In favor of cheaper gas to the consumer and do what he can If elected to obtain it for us, as we are paying more for gas than any city within l,tt3 miles. For mayor Mr. Hennlngs suits us, provided he is in sympathy with our gas ambition.

( The New York Commercial prints a de nlul by the officers of the National Lead company that the concern has bought the Carter White Lead, company, with opera tive plants In Omaha, Chicago and Mont real. According to the Commercial the report originated In Omaha and seems to have boon founded on the presence of E. j J. Cornish, president of the Carter com i puny, in New York. It is said Mr. Cornish : offered to sell the property of his company J for about $1,000,000, but the trust people i thought the price loo high and declined to close at the figure. It was given out that no Negotiations are in progress. The Carter White Lead .company is owned mostly in Omaha and for years has been the largest producer of Its kind out ot the trust and the latter's principal competitor. !

NEW PLANS ARE ALL LOST ot a Motion of This Kind la Carried by the Park Commis sioners. Commissioner Oonden said yesterday at the park board meeting that he proposed to make an effort to have swings for chil dren placed In the principal parks for use during the coming summer. He remarked he thought it foolish to spend money on the parks unlrss people used them, and that he thought attractions and amusements of certain kinds should be provided. The hoard took no action on any boule vard propositions having new plans for final surveys before It. A resolution was adopted Instructing the superintendent to Improve Bluff View park, the small tract recently given to the city by W. T. Kierstcad. Mr. Klerstead said he would supply dirt necessary for grading from property close by It. Charles 1'nitt wanted to make a proposi tion for buying three dwellings, to be re moved for the enlargement of Bemis park, or to trade a lot he owns which the north boulevard threatens to assimilate. He wui told to take the matter up later, after the board hns the deed to the park property. ADDITION TO SASH FACTORY i Extensions Will Be Bnllt by M. .. Dliihrow Jt Co. xt Fall or Winter. M. A.

The nostrils are stopped up, and a constant drop ping of mucus back into the throat keeps up a continual hawking and spit ting, the patient has dull headaches, ringing noises in the ears and a half sick, depressed feeling all tbe time. Every inner lining and tissue of the body becomes inflamed, and secretes an unhealthy matter which is absorbed into the blood and distributed to all parts of the body, and the disease be comes constitutional. The catarrhal poison brings on stomach troubles, affects the Kidneys and Bladder, attacks the soft bones of the throat and head and if not checked leads to Consumption. A disease so deep-seated and dangerous cannot be washed out, neither can it be smoked away. Sprays, washes, inhalations, etc., are useless, because they only reach the membranes and tissues, while the real cause of the disease is in the blood. S. S.
