about Louise being dead, how he went
with William to his home, how he found
Louise dead In the yard and how they
called a doctor from Wayne and what

visits of William Flege to his home that
afternoon and verified his father's test!
mony at other points. In addition to this
he told how on Friday evening before
the murder he was out with William
-Flege and that William bad said to him
that he supposed Louise would give .him
h-1 for being out so lat, but that he
would soon be rid of her and that sort
of trouble would be over with. This
was not testified to by the witness In the
former trial, but the witness ould not
give any reason for this fact.
The undertakers, Beokenhaur and
Oertner of Wayne and Dr. Graham,
coroner of Dixon county, told what they
found on their arrival at the Flege home.
Ida Helnrlch's was the last witness
called for the day. . She told how Wil
liam Flege was at their home on the
dav of the murder, and verified her
father and brother aa to his appearance

tFrom a staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN. April JS.-ISnecial.)-Two of
the auccessful democratic candidates
failed to tile their expense accounts
within the ten days after the primary as
specified by law. They are George L.
Hall, candidate for treasurer, and II. C.
Richmond, candidate tor auditor. A third.
H. Morehend, candidate tor governor,
got In the last minute, a special delivery
letter being received by Secretary ot
Stats Walt about 10 o'clock last night
A number of primary candidates on
both ticket In the defeated class have
not filed statements and these are re
minded that the new primary law changes
the rule In that respect and It la aa much
Incumbent upon them to make a state
ment of expenses ta It is for the success
ful ones. There are two penalties pro
vided for failure tn live up to the law.
One subjects the party, whether success
ful or not to a penalty not to exceed
tl.OM It the statement la not on tile with
the secretary ot state ten days attar the
primary. The other provides that no
certificate ot election shall be Issued to
any person until they have made a com
plete statement under oath of money ex
pended by ' them or In their behalf for
both primary and general election ex
penditures.
In the case of political committees the
time for making a return of expenditures
Is greater than tor candidates. Ths law
provides for making a snowing ot re
celpts before the primary and twenty
days after ths primary a complete state
men! ot returns and expenditures must
be returned. Ths La Fnllette league and
the Taft league made the first statement
but there has been nd statement of any
political organisation filed sines tha pri
penary. The democratic committees repre
senting Harmon, Clark and Wilson nave
msde no ststement of any kind up to the
present In spite of the fact that publicity
of campaign expenditures Is the hobby
of the patron sslnt of Nebraska demo-racy.
The ststements of some candidates
would Indicate the parties who msde
them. If the showing Is correct, could
wtn a fortune by showing merchsnts and
other heavy advertisers how they could
