Tried Lockjaw Germ as
Well as Typhoid.
DENVER, Sept. 17. (Special 'Telegram.)
Attorneys for the Insurance companies
holding policies on Dr. Fredrelck Rustin of
Omaha were here today and took the depo
sition of Mrs. Abble lUce. She tesUfled sub
stantially as follows: She met Rustin two
years before his death when he was called
to the house where she lived to attend her.
He took her to a hospital. While he minis
tered to her he fell In love with her and
when she waa ready to leave the hospital
he took vher to live with him.
Twice, Mrs. Rice testified. Dr. Rustin
attempted to kill himself. He had suicide
mania, she said. He inoculated himself
with typhoid fever germs and suffered with
the disease. The physician who cured him
sal dthe disease had been Inflicted by the
patient hlmaelf. When typhoid failed he
put into his body the germs of lockjaw, but
tetanus failed to develop.
Finally, Mrs. .Roe said. Dr. Rustin com
pel led her to make a double suicide com.
pact with him. Both wished to die, but
Dr. Rustin, said Mrs. Rice, wanted to die
in such a way that there would-be-- no
assertion of suicide nor any doubt about
his life Insurance. He did not wish the
stigma of suicide nor to leave his wife
unprovided for. Finally the death agree
ment was settled. She waa to shoot htm
In his office.
When the time came Mrs. Rice said her
nerve failed. Then she said Davis ap
1eared and made a death compact with
Rustin, which was sealed September 1. and
the next morning Rustin was found dead.

CHICAGO, 8ept. 17 (Special Telegram.)-Sub-Treasurer
William Boldenweck. who
soon Is to be succeeded in office by Len
Small of Kankakee, is expecting dally the
arrival of a corps of examiners from the
Treasury department at Washington, who
will count the $60,000.0(10 In currency sup
posed to lie la the safety vaults of the
treasury. These men'wlll(not only go over
the accounts of Sub-Treasurer Boldenweck
but will also count the actual cash In the
local repository to see that it tallies with
the "paper count."
The Task is a tremendous one and the
skilled examiners of the Treasury depart
ment can hardly finish it in less than four
weeks. Sub-Treasurer Boldenweck. whose
resignation was to have taken effect to
day, will not give over the office until it
la concluded.
Anxiety of the government to clear up
the shortage of $173,000 for which George
W, Fltzrerald. former assorting teller, was
arrested several days ago may account for
the tardiness of the treasury officials In
clearing the way for the departure of
Boldenweck and the assumption of offloe
by Small.
Mrs. Fitzgerald declared today that she
feels confident her husband's Innocence
will be clearly established by the Treasury

a great field for aggressive aerial opera

The problem of fighting aerial war

reports received In the local market.

Cortes to Meet to
Pass Judgment on
Canalejas' Plans
War Cloud that Hat Hovered Over
Spain is Said to Be Passing
: . ' , . . Bapfdly Away.
MADRID, Sept. 17. (Special Cablegram.)
With only a fortnight to the reassem
bling of the Cortes to pass Judgment upon
the policy of Premier Canalejas In dealing
with the Carllst and clerical parties, the
indications are that tha outcome will be
favorable on the whole to his government.
Liberals of all factions are fairly well
united. The uncertain factor Is Genor
Moret, and there Is a good deal of con
Jecturc as to the direction In which his
influence will be thrown.
Canalejas, making an Indirect response
to- the arraignments of Monsignor Vlco,
papal nuncio, for meetinga of protest
against the "padlock bill" on October 2,
announces that at the opening of the
Cortes he will propose the simultaneous
discusaion of the budget and of special
bills dealing with the political question
of the moment. He is optimistic regarding
the financial situation and the better col
lection of taxes and believes the Spanish
nation desires to lay upon the magnificent
properties of the monks some portion of
the budget or $200,000,000, of which the
clergy .receive nearly $10,000,000 In pensions.
Impartial aocpunts are agreed that al
though in Navarre, Arragon and Catalonia
an army could be raised at short notice
to defend the Roman Catholic church, the
elements of religious war do not exist In
Spain today
The only really formidable danger to the
public peace Is the republican-social Ibt
coalition, a thing Canalejas says ia yet to
be explained.

than the ordinary "cleaning and dyeing"
Is evldenoed by the Immense amount of
"out-of-town" work already secured hv the
Dresner Bros, at their especially pl.tnnerl
establishment at Wl-HlS Farnam street.
The Dreshers, In order to spread thclf
"clothes restoring" idea. no. only through

western country, have Instituted a plan
whereby they pay all express charges on
incoming shipments of work amounting to

satisfactory, for no city of lesser size can
maintain a $50,000 establishment, manned
by a half hundred operatives.
Dresher Bros, will be pleased to aend to
