gone Into It far enough yet to be able to
state what the attitude of tho state would
be. He said no formal complaint agalnnt
Cudahy had been filed in the prosecutor's
office. .
Maid Describes Scene.
John Moss, the Cudahy chauffeur, who
was with Mr. Cudahy during the affair
last night, was not to be found today.
A maid was the only on who would ap
pear at the Cudahy home In answer to
rings at the door bell. Bhe said she knew
nothing of the whereabouts of Mod.
The maid, telling of the affair, said she
came down the stairs on hearing the noise
of the scuffle In the parlor. Bhe saw a
man stretched out on the floor with a rope
about his neck and about his feet. The
man's body was nearly stripped of cloth
ing, she said. His body was bare from the
waist down. Just aa the maid arrived at
the foot of the stairs Moss, she says, was
pulling on the rope about the neck of the
man on the floor and as soon as Moss saw
her standing there he came and pointed
a revolver In her face. Bhe then, she said,
ran back to her room an1 saw no mors.
Mr. Cudar.y nau o i oaturffay evening, the
maid said, signified his Intention of going
up town to attend a political meeting. Mr.
Cudahy left the house, but returned, and
with his chsuffeur remained about the
yard, both having removed their shoes.
Bryan Underwood, the patrolman who re
sponded to the call to the Cudahy home,
and who later accompanied Mr. Cudahy to
the polios Station, declined to talk of the
casa today.
Frank F. Bnow, acting chief of police,
mads publlo Underwood's report as made
to him. Underwood told of being called
to the Cudahy home at 13:30 Sunday morn
ing and of finding- Ullls lying on the floor,
bound and . wounded, . Cudahy , had ex
plained Ltllls' condition,' the officer said,
by saying that LUUs was an Intruder In
the Cudahy home. Llllls was partly dis
robed and a part of his olothlng was lying
on the floor near him. Dr. Bamuel Ayers,
who reached the house ahead of the offi
cer, had said that Llllls was not danger
ously wounded.
Jooeyb. Ondahy wlta Brother.
J. P. Cudahy, accompanied by his brother
Joseph, of Omaha, entered the office of
Attorney Walsh about noon today. The
brothers Immediately entered a private of
fice, where they met Mr. Walsh and Mr.
New. Five minutes later J. P, Cudahy
emerged from the office and encountered
a number of newspaper men.
"I have nothing to aay," Mr, Cudahy re
plied to a dosen queries put ' to him. He
spoke In a low tone. His face was pale
and he appeared to be nervous and agita
ted. '
"You can set at rest many of the wild
rumors that are going- around town," was
suggested.
'"I 'must ask you to excuse me," Cudahy
Insisted. "My attorneys have advised -me
not to talk and I will say nothing at
present."
Mr. Cudahy then hurried from the office.
- Llllls Is In St. Mary', hospital. Ills con
dition is said to be critical. Cuts said to
have been- Inflicted with a knife, are on
his face, limbs and one arm. The cuts have

nefore cutting Llllls, Cudahy Is said to

of Cudahy's chauffeurs was present.
Neighbors heard Llllls screaming and
groaning In the Cudahy home and. they
called the Weetport police rtatlon. It Was
a woman who coiled. Her Idsntlty has not
bren established,
"A man Is belns murdered In the Cudahy
home. Bend an officer there at once," she
screamed.
What the Polleemss Found.
Ten minutes later Patrolman Brian Un
derwood hurried to the Cudahy home,
which Is at Thirty-sixth eind Walnut streets
In the most fashionable residence section
of the city. The front door was opn so ha
did not ring the door bell. Stepping Into
the hall he heard screams coming from a
parlor. Then came groans and cries for
mercy. 1
Undorwood followed the direction of the
sounds to the room. It .was brilliantly
lighted. He pushed open a door and en
tered cautiously.
Three men were In the room. Prostrate
on the floor lay Llllls, half nude and
bound with a rope. Above him stood Cud
ahy. He was in correct evening dress ex
cept that he wore no coat. His sleeves were
rolled up. Blood was on his hands. At his
side stood a chauffeur garbed In regula
tion leather cap and duster as though he
bad come Into the house after a hurried
call and a run with, his machine.
None of the men noticed Underwood, Lll
lls groaned and tugged feebly at the oorda
thst bound him.
"Don't do it. Jack. Please don't do It,"
he pleaded. -
Rushing over to the trio. Underwood ad
dressed Cudahy. -
"What does this mean?" ho queried.
"He'a ruined my homo. He's ruined my
home," said Cudahy, turning to the officer
and making no attempt at resistance. -
"You're under arrest," said the officer.
"All right, I'll go with you, but -let me
call my attorney bfor you take me to the
station," replied Cudahy calmly.
"Call your attorney, andril get an am
bulance for this. man," said the policeman.
"Who Is he?"
"It's Jere .Llllls," Cudahy said over his
shoulder as he walked toward a telephone.
After seeing that Llllls had been started
to a hospital, the policeman took Cudahy
to the police station. The packer gave a
cash bond and was released.
From the beginning to the end of the
affair, Mrs. Cudahy was not In evidence.
Attempts to reach her today have proved
futile. '
Cudahy's attorneys admit the general
facts In the case, but refuse to go Into de
tails. - -
Mills Will Recover.
That Llllls will recover there seems to
be no doubt. He Is an athletic man, more
than six feet tall and strongly built. For
many years he has taken an active part in
all sorts of outdoor sports. His ability as
a golfer Is well known, as for several
years he held the Kansas City champion
ship. At different times hs has participated
In golf meets through the west.
For several years Llllls has been an in
timate friend of the Cudahy family. He
had been at almost every social affair
they gave until recently. It was reported
a few months ago that Llllls and Cudahy
had had a misunderstanding. Many rumors
were rife at that time, but ' they faded
away and it was generally accepted they
were without foundation.
' Explanation of the small bond required
of Cudahy given by police court officials
Is that Llllls has preferred no- charge
against him so far and they do not tf litfe
making- any other accusation than disturb
ing the peace on their own responsibility.
It Is generally understood ' Llllls will net
prosecute Cudahy, so ths case may be dis
missed with but a small fine. - Policeman
Underwood will be complaining witness at
the hearing.
Mrs. Cu"ahy an Omaha Belle.'
Since Cudahy's marriage to Miss Edna
Cowln, who was a society belle of Omaha,
on December, 2J, 1893, the family has been
prominent here. On the day of the mar
riage, Cudahy's father made him manager
of his Kansas City packing Interests. After
three-months' honeymoon, which Included
trips on special trains snd the occupancy
of a palace in Italy, the couple returned
here and purchased one of the finest homes
In the city. Society readily received them.
They rented a box at each high class
theater by ths year. Cudahy is. a member
of the Country, Kansas City, Elmrldge,
Hunt and Polo clubs. For a time he kept
many fine horses. Following an Injury sus
tained while playing polo, he sold his stable
and took up motoring. The Cudahy's have
five children.
Llllls Is a bachelor, 47 years old. He Is
manager of the Western Exchange bank
and prominent socially. He holds , member
ships In the Kansas City, Country, Evans
ton, Golf and Elmrldge Automobile clubs.
Often ' he has been seen In club rooms In
Cudahy's company.
JACK SIMPLY KEPT ' HIS ' WORD
Cndahy Said lie Would Mark Mills,
Saya a Friend.
"John Cudahy simply keYt his promise
when he slashed up Jere Llllls," said 8. J.
Whltten, a Kansas City business man, who
Is stopping at the Poxton hotel.
"He said that he would mark Llllls for
life If he did not let his family alone. That
was some weeks ago, and those who knew
both men were not greatly surprised at
what happened Sunday night
"I do not think that Mr. Cudahy lacked
confidence In his wife In any way. He only
seemed to resent the attitude of Mr. Llllls.
LUUs Is a man of wealth and a bachelor,
and some think that he was Just 'butting
In.' "
The Kanaas City club men were not un
prepared to hear of the affair, acordlng to
Mr. Whltten, who Is In touch with that
circle, . .
General and Mrs. John C. Cowln, parents
of Mrs. John P. Cudahy, left for Kansas
City Monday morning. They departed
early and set no date for,, their return.
They probably will stay in Kansas City

PIERRE, S. D., March 7.M8pecial.)
The 'aquaplane, with -which S. M. Howard
of Gettysburg, expects to revolutionize
navigation on the rivers' of the country,
Is hoW all ready to launch as soon ae the
loe goes out of the river, and Mr. Howard
oxpects to make a trip to -Pierre from For
est City, as soon as he can safely get 'his
craft In the river. ,He says, his present
model is a small one, and he does not ex
pect to be able to make more than sixteen
miles an hour, with It, but it Is . suffi
cient to test his theory of water transpor
tation. If the model makes good his belief
Is that a boat of .larger capacity and
greater power will far exceed It in speed
and even, get up Jo, sixty miles an bour.
Mr. . Howard, who Is. president of the
Gettysburg Commercial club has been at
work on his model ior a. long time, and
believes he has thoroughly solved the mat
ter of water transportation. That If his
theory of water prbpulslou Is sound, he
can carry passengers or freight from
Pierre to St. Louis in thirty hours by river
which would exceed railroad time, and
would allow their transportation at a much
lower rate than by railways.
Mr. Howard will be at the river meet
ing here tho last of this month with his
boat, and will show what it can do In the
way of travel. The ibrlnclple on which he
depends Is the stern "paddle" wheel, re
inforced by a series of small "paddles" on
an endless chuln running under the hull
of the boat. These paddles tarrying the

WASHINGTON, March T. "Carefully
preserving the principles so clesrly enun
ciated In the republican - platform cf
190V' Is the way the majority cf the senate
committee on Interstate commerce, which
made Its report todsy on the administration
rallrond bill. Interprets th provisions to
permit common carriers to enter Into traf
fic ageements.
The report Is signed by Senators Elklns,
Cullom, Aidrlch, Kean, Crane and Nixon,
and will be printed with the minority re
port submitted a few days ago by Senators
Clapp and Cummins, and the Individual re
port of Senator Newlanda.
Approval of the court of commerce fea
ture Is given prominence, although com
ment upon other provisions ts far more
interesting. For instance, the report ssys
that the ffct of the trafflo agreement
provision Is to relieve carriers from the
prohibition of the anti-trust aot, while
preserving unimpaired the control of the
Interstate Commerce commrslon over all
such agreements. It Is declared that the
provision Is in exact compllanco with the
declaration In the republican platform.
Maintains Competitive Principle.
After quoting tho clause of the platform
cono mlng such agreements the report
says:
"The contention that this declaration can
Only be compiled with by requiring the
approval of such agreements by the Inter
state Comineroe commission before they
become operative Is, In the opinion of th
committee, destitute of th slightest founda
tion.
'The section in question carefully pre
serves the principles clearly enunolated In
the 'platform, and only by a wilful distor
tion of language could It be contended that
this carefully guarded provision Involved
any abandonment of the principles of com
petition between naturally competing
lines." ,
Indorsing the proposed court of com
merce, the report says that the principal
argument In favor of its creation Is that
it will prevent delay and confusion In the
enforcement of the law by creating one
tribunal specially versed In the complicated
and often technical questions arising out
of the application of the interstate com
merce law to railroads and other carriers
ubject to the act
Supreme court rulings are olted In sup
port of the contention that the scope of
rev Is w of the commission's orders in ths
oourt will not be wider than It Is now In
the circuit, courts. It is contended that
courts ought not to be endowed with merely
administrative powers, such as are In
volved in the exercise of the commission's
discretion. The claim that there will not
be enough business to keep the tribunal
occupied Is not seriously considered by the
commission. . .
.' Separation of Functions.
The administration bill gives the attorney
general entire oontrol of the Interests of
the government In all. cases and pro
ceedings in the court of commerce and In
the fuprera oourt on. appeal eases. This
Is a change from the- existing law. The
committee say that the present system
combines In ths members of the Interstate
Commerce commission the functions of In
vestigator, Judge and prosecutor, which Is
declared to be contrary to the correot
theory of law or procedure. -
Commenting upon the provision for In
vestigation by the Committee of proposed
Increases in rates, the report says that a
majority, of the, committee Is of opinion
that the committee should be authorized
to commence the investigation of a pro
posed lnorease In rates, or change In
Classification as 'soon as It is filed. The
majority' Supports also ths proposition that
any time before the rats or classification
will beooms effective the commission Should
be empowered to postpone ths effective
date for a reasonable period to enable It
to Investigate the proposed action.
The bill fixes this reasonable period at
sixty days and although the commission
recommended that this time be extended
to 120 days the commission says It believes
that with due diligence, the commission
can determine within the time allotted
whether the Increase should be approved.
Provision as to Combinations.
As to the provisions relating to through
rates and through routes, the shippers
ought to route the shipment, and In the
making of the annual report, the majority
follows the line of argument advanced by
Attorney General Wlckersham In his pub
lished abstract of ths bill.
Concerning the important sections relat
ing to the purchase of competing lines, the
report says:
"Such criticism of this section has been
made upon the ground that It did not pro
hibit the acquisition by means of a holding
corporation of stocks of competing lines
of railway. The provisions of ths Sher
man anti-trust law so completely cover
that ground that the committee deemed It
unnecessary to attempt a repetition of
those prohibitions In this act. For the
same reason It was not deemed expedient
to attempt to deal with the questions of
combinations of express companies or tele
graph and telephone companies, because
where such combinations constitute a re
straint of trade, the Sherman act affords
ample authority to reach and prevent
them." '
Attention is called to the fact that the
bill provides a means of ascertaining by
Judicial investigation and determination
whether or not a bona fide contract pro
posed to be entered Into respecting the
acquisition of stock or property of rail
roads Is In violation of the prohibitions of
