&6 DEVELOPMENTS IN CASE
JVotalng Discovered to Disprove that
Crime Was Committed by Crased
t Father Faneral to Be
Held Today.
I ... ,- .
Thousands of people filed through the
rooms of the Cutler, undertaking estab
lishment at Council Bluffs Saturday and
viewed the woGles of ?irtin Thompson,
kla wife and their 8-year-old son, Ray
mond, all dead "by the hand of the ap
parently crated father. By a coincidence
the coffins were arranged in the same
order- as the bodies were found in tin
Mood-bespattered room at their home on
the Martin farm, six miles from Council
Bluffs Friday afternoon.'
There were no developments of any Im
portance tending,' further to establish or
discredit the conviction that 'death had
tome to all three through the insane
not of the man. The theor murder
and suidda' is most; re-etantly received
by the friend '.and "relative of Thomp
son. Samuel Christiansen, : brother of
Mrs. Thompson, who lives five, miles east
f the city, after examining, the letter
left on the table in the living room,
with the envelope bearing bloody finger
prints, expressed his doubt yesterday that
It was written by his brother-in-law. He
Bald the writing was smaller, neater and
better than that of Thompson, lie had
rone of the dead man's letter with him
for comparison.
; This Impression was also shared In a
kneasure by Mr, " Myrtue, for whom
Thompson worked building the booth
and arches for the carnival. He was In
euch doubt yesterday afternoon after
critically examining the letter, that he
returned to the shop and got several of
the time sheets made out by Thompson
during the progress of the carnival work.
They did not contain enough writing to
permit a favorable comparison. In come
respects the writing was greatly similar
and In others dissimilar. All were writ
ten with a pencil. In the time sheets the
writing was heavier and the character
much larger. The greatest dissimilarity
was In the letter "t".
The family record show that Mr.
Thompson was 43 years old and his wife
4. They were married here twenty-two
year ago, when, a Miss Carolina Chris
tiansen, the woman followed the man
who had won her love In their Denmark
borne and became hi bride. During all
of their married life they were noted
lor their devotion to each other. Two
years ago Mr. Thompson sent his wife
and young on back to the old home
to visit, that their relatives there might
join in the love and pride with which
his parents regarded 'him. A year ago
the little fellow bad an accident and
Buffered a broken arm. Both father and
mother remained at his bedside almost
constantly. Their love and solicitude was
o great that they would not permit him
Jto sleep anywhere but on a eot In their
wn room. The father cherished the boy
with almost an idolatrous love, and it
1 this, that make it so difficult 'or hi
friend to believe that he could have
'ever thought of harming him. The two
other children, Christina and Dora both
adult young women, are In a state of
complete physical collapse following their
vtait to the farm home. Mis Do,ra, who
Is a teacher in the public school at Han

NEW YORK GENERAL MARKET
OMAHA. Sept 14, 1912,
Buyers of wheat yesterday had tem
porary help from two sources, the
strength abroad and the rains over the
northwest The latter would not had
influenced the trade much but for the
fact that the northwest markets showed
a strong turn and cash wheat at Minnea
polis was at Increased premiums over
previous days. Chicago shorts were well
eliminated on the advance and good pit
observers regarded the market as some
what overbought. The continued heavy
movement to the southwest, the Increase
of nearly 2,000,000 bushels of public grain
in the northwest markets for the week,
and the certainty that the spring crop
run will continue until it becomes a
weight on the northwest markets, as well
as in Chicago .encourages selling on the
advance. Cash wheat unchanged to Mo
higher.
Taking into account the fact that the
corn crop, no matter how great Its prom
ise is at this time. Is not yet made, and
the other Important fact that corn raisers
are not likely to become free sellers of
the new crop at such a great discount
under old corn, the conservative trader
will find reason for going slow on the
new crop months on the depressions and
may find good reason lor taking the buy
ing side of the December option. The
trader must keep in mind what a period
of adverse weather about the time corn
should move to fill the December con
tracts, either for delivery or for ship
ments, would do to the market. Cash
corn unchanged to 14c lower.
To see cash oat move up to a pre
mium over the December, was considered
as indicating an oversold condition for
thl month. Receiving house have been
the best buyer, which mean that the
country shippers were not able to make
their deliveries on account of a scarolty
of car. The rank and file of the oat
trade (till remain bearish. Cash oats
were unchanged to c higher.

to 818,000 bu., corn, 60,000; oats, 116,000 bu.

CATTLE Cattle receipts were very
light today, there being nothing of any
importance on sals. For &c week re
ceipts foot up 28,211 head, being the largest
for. a number of weeks back, but smaller
than a year ago by almost 2.000 head.
The market on beef steers throughout
the week has shown but little change.
The desirable killers have been firm and
the feeling at the close of fhe week Is
that If there were any here they would
sell fully as high as any time. On the
other hand the medium to inferior kinds
have been a little slow on some days and
they might possibly be a shade lower
than a week ago.
Cows and heifers have had strong days
and weak days, but at the close the mar
ket is practically unchanged from what
it was a week ago. The demand through
out the week has been good and recelpta
as a rule have met . with quite ready
sale.
Good feeding steers and good to choice
light yearlings have been in active de
mand all the week and prices are now a
little stronger than a week ago. 'On the
other hand receipts of common to medium
stock cattle have been very large, a good
many being shipped to this point from
other markets. The result of thl flood
of inferior etuff ha been to break the
market and they are afely 25c lower
for the week, , with some of the most
common and least desirable kinds pos
sibly as much as 50c lower. .

HOGS-Hog prices were on the up-trend
again this morning, the market opening
with Bhlppers and speculators buying
about their usual proportion of the re
ceipts, mostly a nickel higher, and in
some instances 510c higher. As the sup
ply of good light hogs was very light
some of the heavier grades showed the
610c advance. One load of ehoice Duroc
hogs, weighing around 260 pound, aold
at $8.75, top price for the day and the
highest price on this market -since Octo
ber, 1910, when $9.05 was paid.- After the
more urgent shipping order were filled,
packers started In slowly, making their
purchases, generally 6c higher than yes
terday. As the morning advanced trade
seemed to Improve, becoming more active
at and near the close. Mostly everything
was taken out of first hands by 10
o'clock. '
Today's receipt were estimated at
about forty-eight car, or around 3,178
head, as against 2,685 bead last Saturday,
4,336 two weeks ago and 3,230 on the corre
sponding day a year ago. For the week
the total supply amounts to about 30,000
head, a compared with 28,680 head last
week and 26,688 head for the same time
last year. Prices at the close of the
week average 610c higher than those
prevailing last Saturday, while the top la
20o higher.

SHTEP There were no sheep or lamb
on sale thl morning, consequently value
remained nominally the same a on yes
terday and Thursday. Twenty-one loads
arrived, but seventeen of them stopped
here only for feed and water, the remain
ing four being shipped direct to a local
packer.
For the week the receipts foot up 105,000
head, being about 20,000 more than last
week, but In the neighborhood of 80,000
head short for the same time a year ago.
While the supply was considerably
larger than last week, there was a good
outlet for everything on sale. The de
mand was best for anything" choice on
the killing order, the less desirable, stuff
being In good request. A strong feeling
to the trade prevailed all the week and
business had a .considable life on most
davs, a clearance of the offerings being
made In good season dally. At the close
of the week fat lambs are fully 2540e
higher than the end of last week. Lambs
were in comparatively liberal supply, the
bulk being of pretty fair quality. Fat
sheep show ah advance of 25c In compari
son with a week ago. A fairly large num
ber of ewes were on sale, while wethers
and yearling were in meager supply. Fat
earlinga sold better than tny other class
of sheep.
There was a broad and active demand
for both feeding sheep and Itmbs, clos
ing prices ruling all of 1016c above those
at last week's close. A fslrlv large num
ber of desirable feeding lambs was avail
able and practically everything was pickea
up In good season. About 44.970 head were
reported as sent to the country, as com
pared with 33,480 head last week.
