The Story unfolded by the Rice woman to

Jury In Omaha, and seta a new record for
Intrigue, cleverness, cunning, deception,
suicide pact plans, murder, duplicity of men
and women, and finally resulting In death
to only on man, but the principal actor In
the tragedy. . .m .
Tend tor Clear Myitsry,
All the woman told Tuesday tended to
clear up, the mystery and show absolutely
4 that Dr. Ruatin had taken hi own life,
and her'' entire testimony was In accord
with the "confession" which waa secured
Sunday night' by Chief of Police Donahue
and County Attorney English. But the
story staggered officers and spectators lo
a point where they would have refused to
believe It had hot the clever woman, who
comprehended all of Dr. Ruatln's troubles
and -motives, "substantiated everything with
facts about tha phyaiclan which his wife
did not know when questioned earlier In
the day.'
The first statement made by Alice Rice
which connected her -with Dr. Rustln was
that ahe met him last pt-ofmber while shs
'waa m rnjnat.,.f Qrace Valton'a house,
at til Douglas street. She hal called him

plan of killing himself." i
"What waa his definite plan?"
Haw Ha Vsatel tt baa.
"He wanted me to ahoot Mm In his of
fice and to ahoot htm In the abdomen, so
he would live a few daya and enable him
to settle his unrecorded debts, and besides
that It suicide was suspected be could not
feel sure that his wife would 4t ta In
mrnce he wanted to feel sure of that."
"When did he want It dona?"
"Sunday night."
"What waa done?"
"I was playing with the gun and broke
it."
"What waa you to do?"
"I was to get out of the building and
to kill myself with the gun after t had
taken the cartridge out of the chamber
which fired the bullet Into Dr. Rustln'
body and Inserted another loaded shell
Into the chamber, so the officers would
find but one shell empty,"
Here the Rice woman was shown the
loaded shell found In her hand-bak by the
police. She aald:
"That Is the shell with which 1 was to
kill myself after I had shot Dr. Rustln,
but my nerve failed me. It waa given to
me by Dr. Ruatin In his office and I put
it In my pocket, later In the hand-bag."
8he testified that ahe bought ths shells
at the store of the Townsend Gun company
In the Pazton block, and the weapon which
Dr. Ruatin had bought was secured by him
In Council bluffs, loaded by him In his
office and then ahe took a pin out of the
side of the cheap weapon, which disabled
It and made the plan go wrong Sunday
night, August 23.
Mora Despomdeat Than Brer.
According to the woman, the gun waa re
paired during the neat week In Council
Bluffs, and she saw him the next Friday,
August in. She said Dr. Rustln was more
despondent than ever and said the deed
had to be don that evening; he had to be
killed, snd she had to do It. According to
Ills Instructions, she met htm at Seven
teenth and Webster streets, and they went
ts his office about t o'clock. Here Dr.
Rustln told her ths necessity for him being
killed, , Hs said he was In debt, and could
not support his family, and outlined the
plan for the tragedy, which waa the same
ss proposed before, for her to shoot him
at a dielanse where powder burns, would
hut show on his clothing, Insert that new
shell and take her own Ufa wherever ahe
elioeeei .' . ".. .
"But Dr, Rustln wanted to is killed th. his
own barn, tthe thouglW hY eeJVeted the
aarn for Ute erune, so h could be killed
near home, and possibly gtv the' Impres
sion - that he had been shot by burglars
Sr prowlers.
''I went te the alley, aa he requested,
and etarted for the barn, but some one
drove by and my nerve failed me," aald
the woman under oath. (
"Then I returned to Farnam atreet and
walked a block or two, when a afreet car
overtook. me. To my surprise Dr, Rustln
got oft the car when I went, to get on.
He salfll 'They are not on thlk car; I will
wait with you,' I suppose he aald this to
mislead the conductor,"
"What did you do then did you return
with Dr. Rustln?"
Doctor Ready to Die.
"H told me to go around the back way
to the burn; he would be there, and I was
to shoot him In the barn. He gave me the
gun and I carried It around through the
alley. When I got back there Dr. Rustln,
had entered the barn and opened the
doors." '.
Asked to describe the back of the barn,
the Rice woman did ao to the county at
torney's satisfaction, and convinced detec
tives that ahe was perfectly familiar with
the premises. . (

"He stepped bark from me and said:

Tears rsme to the eyes of the woman
witness for the first time. Phe grew more
vivid In her descriptions. Men snd the few
women In the coroner's room leaned for
ward to hear the next sentence, but It
was Attorney English who uttered It, Snd
he said:
"What did you do?"
Silence for ten seconds followed, and the
woman said:
"I lose my nerve." ,
"Then?"

"He grabbed me, twisted the gun out of
my hands and told me he was going to
shoot me and then kill himself. I re
minded him that a arandal would follow
which would stay with his wife and child
ren forever. He said he did not cAre a
d for eosndal now. Tlut he did not
shoot. He scolded and was very angry
with me. and finally agreed to go back
down to the city with me. But the cars
had stopped."
"What did you do did Dr. Rustln come
back to the city with you?"
"Yes, he went Into his own home, tele
phoned for a carriage and we walked but
a few blocks east on Farnam street until
we met the carriage."
"Where did you go?"
"Pr. Rustln had engaged a room at
Clara Gleason's by going to the office and
telephoning. We went to the resort of
the Gleason woman about t o'clock In the
morning. Dr. Rustln left there before
daylight Saturday morning."
"The Satorday before the tragedy which
ended his life?"
"Yes, Saturday, August !9."
All Rlaht with Her.
All day Saturday Dr. Rustln spent his
time with the Rice woman In the Gleason
house, according to her testimony, remain
ing In the room until 3:9) or 4 o'clock in the
afternoon. During this time he confided
to her everything, including the informa
tion about the note which was to fall due
at the First National bank Tuesday.
Here Mrs. Rice told of her efforts and
her woman's sympathy cropped out, when
she related how ahe had tried to secure
money to pay the Interest which Dr. Rustln
had agreed to meet ut the bank.
"But I had to tell Saturday that I had
not succeeded but hoped to get the money
he needed by .Tuesday," she Said. 1
Dr. Rustln called to see her Tuesday
morning and was In the room with her off
and on until late in the afternoon, when
she was compelled to tell him that she
could not get the money he needed.
"What did he say?" Interposed the county
attorney. ,
"It took him off his feet, as he thought
I could get the money and I thought so,
too, but he told me to meet him at the
office about 8 o'clock, which I did.
"When I got to the office he told me
that he had to be killed, but that he had
secured someone else to do the Job and
I would not have to do it."
"Who did he say the man was?"
Man Named Charley Davie.
"A man by the name of Charley Davis
was his last name."
Later the wonman says she went down
street and called up Dr. Rustln at his of
floeV He told her to come back Up and
she heard him send the man down for a
bottle of beer.
Charley Davis, brother of the vice pres
ident of the First National bank, says be
was In the office and went out for the
bottle of beer, and that he was there for'
medicine with which hs expected to ""com
:,tnit suicde.
Resuming her Story the Rice woman says
In her statement and In her testimony be
fore the cornorer's Jury: -
"I tried to persuade 'Dr. Rustln that he
should' not ' have this man kill him, but
hs instated that he was to die during the
night. He then gsve me a bottle of aconite
and told me I could take that If I wanted
to kill myself, but he did not ask me to
commit suicide."
"Did he mSke sny provision for you In
the event you did not take your own life?"
"Yes; he gave me a check for t&UU."
"Did you think this check waa good?"
"I knew it was not good, but he told me
that It could be cashed, if I would see one
of the directors of the First National bank
and ask to have It paid."
"What became of this check?"
"The Gleason woman destroyed It, I be
lieve, aa she said It waa no good."
"What' did you do after you received the
check?"
or the Laat Tine.
"I left the office with Dr. Rustln to ride
out home with him for the last time. He
said it waa the last time.
"We walked down to Farnam street.

"Did he take anything besides the whisky

"He took morphine. I saw htm take a

He said he was taking It so he could not

"But going up Harney atreet he talked
about hla family his wife and children.

F. H. Davis was tailed to the stand as
the last witness Tuesday afternoon before

it and an effort that he talked at all,
being convulsed with aobs. He said:
'The first I knew that ray brother was
Implicated In the case was when Detective
Maloney told me that Mrs. Rice had con
nected him with the shooting. 1 started
out to look for my brother to ask him
about it, but could not Jtnd him until even
ing. I then asked my- brother to tell me
Just what connection he had with the affair
and he told me substantially what he has
told , here today. My brother has tried sev
eral times to commit suicide. He made 'an
attempt a week before, and had tried that
night (the night Dr. Rustln was shot). He
Is an unhappy man. His home has been
broken oip." ,
It being such an effort for Mr. Davis to
testify and the hour being late, the Inquest
was postponed until 10 o'clock this morn
ing. ....
Mr. Rastln TeaUfl.es.
Mrs. Frederick T. Rustln, the widow, waa
questioned at the coroner's inquest for an
hour and fifteen minutes Tuesday morning.
She testified that her husband was much
depressed the evening-of September 1; had
often said his wife and daughters would
be better off without him, considering the
large amount of hi !lf: Insurance, and had
once attempted to take his own life by
Injecting disease germs into his body.
Mrs.. Rustln entered the little Inquest
room, where the air, was' close, with her
mother, Mrs. Howj her husband's mother,
Mrs. Rustln; Forrest Richardson, the friend
of the family, and, was-assisted to the wit
ness chair by her- attorney, Frank T. Ran
som. In a clear yolc she took the oath,
seated herself In the witness chair and.
throwing back, the heavy black veil, faced
the Jury with a countenance at first very
white, the paleness disappearing aa she
became more . at ease. Many times Mrs.
Rustln smelled a small bottle of camphor
which she held and asked, for a glass of
water several times. She answered ques
tions distinctly and offered to raise her
voice that the Jury might hear her answers
more distinctly. Only In minor details
which escaped her notice In her excitement
on the morning of September 2, did she
fall to answer the questlona put to her
by County Attorney James P. English.
Long before time for the Inquest a crowd
gathered about the . Davla undertaking
establishment, 709 South Sixteenth street.
but the police admitted only those
who could show they had business in tho
rooms, including Attorneys W. F. Gurley,
Frank T. Ransom, Charles A. Goss and W.
A. DeBord. The attorneys refused lo say
whether they were at the Inquest In the
Interests of Insurance companlea or not.
Ransom Attorney for Widow,
Mr. Ransom admitted he was there In the
Interest of the widow, saying he wanted to
look out for any testimony that might
have a bearing on the insurance. It was
the general Impression ' that Mr. DeBord
represented one of the insurance companies,
though he evaded a question on the sub
ject. Dr. Lavender was the first called and
gave his testimony In 'a professional man
ner; then came a night watchman and car
rier boy, who had seen Dr. Rustln go home.
Dr. M. Langfeld waa testifying when Mrs.
Rustln entered the room. He Waa tempor
arily excused and the widow took the stand
at once.
In reply to the county attorney's ques
tion she said her name was Grace How
Rustln and that she had been the wife of
Dr. Frederick T. Rustln for ten years; lived
in the east two years, .coming to Omaha
in 1900. August 30 she returned to Omaha
after a visit of two weeks with Mr. and
Mrs. Bartlett Richards at Ellsworth, Neb.
Bhe found liquor bottles in the cellar; ac
cused the doctor of drinking, which he ad
mitted, and she passed the Incident over
because she knew he was worried and hud
been alone.
Thinks He Was In City.
"Was Dr. Rustln here during your ab
sence?" she was asked.
"I think ao; I do not know."
"Waa he here since your return?"
"He was out of the city a good deal, op
erating, hs said."
"Was he home the evening ot Septem
ber I?"
"Yes; ht came home for dinner about
6:30 In the evening and we dined together."
"Did you notice anything unusual In the
appearance of your husband?"
"He looked very much worried and he
asked for a little money. His eyes and his
face betrayed his depression. We have al
ways had trouble about money matters, aa
we have never had all we wanted. My
husband had to borrow money when he
first started to practice."
Then Mrs. Rustln told of the conversa
tion between herself and her husband dur
lt tha short time he waa at home the
evening before he tragedy.
"I scolded him for not going to th bank
and meeting hi mutuer in the ainruwu,
aa a not was to be renewed or paid and
shs waa going to help him with th mat
ter. I told him he should have gone to the
bank when his mother waa willing to
help him. He simply said, 'I could not go.'
Ws bad talked of taking th hom ot Dr.
Ruatin,' mother while h went east, and
we mentioned that during the time he waa
bom for dinner. ' But th doctor was
very depresaed. He hurried to rough, din
ner and did not eat much, though I begged
