Itesmna Peteraon unit Trro-Year-OId Child Fannd liy Neighbors In n Ilorrlblr Mntllnted Condition. Joe Waters, colored, was arrested yes terday by South Omaha police under suspicion of knowing something about the murder of Mrs. Rasmus Peterson and her 2-year-old daughter at Fremont Wednesday night Waters had fallen from tho top of a freight train as It was pulling Into tho yards and the arrest followed when tho pollco wero summoned to glvo him medical attention and a mlntaturo savings bank belonging to Mrs. Peterson was found In his pocket He died at 3 o'clock at tho hospital from a broken neck, caused by his fall. When asked what he knew about the murder Waters denied that ho had heard anything' ot It and explained his pos session ot tho bank by telling .that ho had found It alongside ot the railroad track In tho Fremont yards. His story, however, was not given much credence by tho authorities and he was held under heavy guard at the South Omaha hos pital. The mutilated bodies ot Mrs. Uasmus Peterson and 2-year-old daughter were found at their home by nolghbors early Thursday morning. The woman had been choked and benten to death and tho child's skull was crushed into a pulp. Noarby the two bodies lay a heavy iron poker be. smeared with blood and clearly the in strument with which the murder was committed. llosunnd la Suspected, Suspicion at Fremont points strongly to the hsuband. He Is a Dane, about 30 years old, a laborer. The neighbors say he was In the habit of pounding nnd abusing his wife. He had threatened several times to kill her and at least once she had ap pealed to the pollco for protection. She supported herself and child by doing washing and he was in the habit of be ing away for long periods of time. About two weeks ago ho left, saying he was going to Minnesota and on August 25th alio Is said by a neighbor to have heard from him at Minneapolis. For the last few days she had been much fright ened and told her neighbors that she waa afraid that Peterson was back and that ha would kill her,, as ho had threatened. It is reported that he was seen around the saloons Wednesday evening, but the rumor so far cannot be substantiate-. The little three-room cottage, meagerly fur nished presented a horrlblo scene Thurs day, From the bed clothing It looked as though a struggle may have occurred. Mrs. Petersen's body, lay at the side of tho bed, with tho blood dripping through the mattress to the floor. The child lay In Jho bed back of the mother. Blood hounds were at onoe placed on the train end started' towards the south. They lost thotrair three nr3ies Va"5t of Fremont, half a mile from the Northwestern rati rtad trauka. , , The woman bore an excellent reputation among her neighbors. They came to this country three. years ago. and had lived, here since about March 1 The bank found upon Waters was Identified yesterday by County At torney Butten and Deputy Johnson ot Dodge county as the one that was in the Peterson home at the time of the murder. It bora the number 1405, that of the account ot Mrs. Peterson at the bank, Farmers Fix the Price of Cotton at Fifteen Cents SALINA, Kan., Sept 4. The high cost of living will be higher as a result of tho action of the National Farmers' union here today In fixing the price at which members will sell this year's cot ton crop at 15 cents a pound. The pres ent price Is about 12 cents. Tho action binds every member of the union to hold his cotton until the mar ket reaches the figures set Similar reso lutlons have failed ot passage at previous conventions. This year there was, no opposition to the plan. Several of the leading cotton growers wanted the minimum figures fixed at 17 or 18 cents, pointing out that. owing to tho tightness of the money mar ket and the unsettled conditions In Europe and this country, prices ot all products would soar and cotton would bring that price it the members of the union held out Fire Chiefs See Motor Pvump Test NEW YOIUC Sept 4-Aftcr having j seen eleven motor fire engines pump 8,000,000 gallons of water out of the Hud' son river yesterday in an all-day effi ciency test, the 1,200 tire chiefs and de partment officials from all parts of tho world in convention here voiced approval generally today of the new era of motor apparatus. Tho pumping incidentally furnished a fine spectacle for thousands of persons who lined Riverside drive to watch the cascade. Meanwhile the "fire women" had their time at a luncheon, where many were moved to tears by an address of Mrs. Frederick Gooderson, wife of a New York deputy chief. "Wo hear a great many wonderful stories of our men," she said, "and we fire women know that they are true. But aro there any stories ot the women who wait and wait at "horns and sometimes wait in vain tor their heroes to return? "Wo women know better than anyone elss the meaning of the dread alarm, when we see people running gleefully after the fire engines.

A falling oft In the attendance at the Btato fair today over that of Thursday of last year of possibly 10,000 or more gives little hope that the attendance of last year will bo anywhere J near reached. Thursday of provlous years have coma nearer being an even attendance than any other day of tho fair, the attendance In 1908 being 33,621: 1909, 31,198; 1910, SS,S08i 1911, 39,811, and 1912. 33.808. It Is also possible that the attendance for tho week will fall below tho 100000 mark for the first time In flvo years. This, ot course, is due to tho dry weather, which has hit tho state In the south and southeastern por tions, where the fair has in former years drawn largely. Ilurnl School Conference. Friday Is Omaha and South Omaha day, and it will be loft to those two cities to lift tho attendance record above that of last year, which was 1S,75. It Is expected that a large crowd will be present, for reports to tho fair management Indicate that these two cities will cut loose with a large crowd and the day bids f-lr to be the most lively of the week. The races today wore pulled oft In tho same characteristic! way which has marked tho track ovents during tho week. FaBt time has been made in most of the events. Tomorrow will show some fast work on tho track. Being Omaha day some ot the best events have been saved tor the visitors.

Toddy was to a certain extent educa tional day, the rural school conference holding the stage in tho auditorium a portion of the day. Secretary Campbell of Clarka presided and Prof, Charles E. Bessey was the first and prlnotpal speaker. Prof. Bessey contended that a certain amount ot knowledge necessary to the development of the scholar could not be received In tho grade school ot the country. Entrance to high schools, he says, de- ponds upon a proper education and until that education is received the student cannot reoelve proper training for "the university. State Superintendent Detxell deplored tbe faot that there was a lack of funds for the proper education of chil dren, saying that there was plenty of districts where there were only five or ten scholars and the districts could not afford teachers for tho children. Although the fair is supposed to close at 4 o'clock tomorrow afternoon, the usual evening program will be given In front of the grandstand and the fireworks will be the same as on other nights. Baby Show Popular. Take It all around, the most popular place around the fair grounds seemingly Is the northwest corner of the partially completed new agricultural hall, where the Better Babies contest is going on. There Is always a crowd about the place. for somehow a baby, and If It is a good natured ono, always is an attraction. (Continued on Page Two.)

IMitiup Snya He Will Shot Three Tlnie- and Ilia Coat Wna Cut Up for Souvenirs by the Rioters. WASHINGTON, Sept.- 4,-Mare lawless- nbss and disorder exists today along Paint Creek, W, Va., than at any other period of Its history, according to today's testimony of Walter S. Woods, general manager ot the Standard Splint Coal company, on that creek, before the' sen ate investigating coirunittee. The law lessness, he said, when pressed by the committee, consisted of general disorder among the miners. "The more radical ones" were stirring up trouble with thoso who remained at work, he declared. "The worst of it Is thoro Is no one to stop it," said he. "There Is not a guard or a special officer or anybody else to reprerent the law on the lower end ot tho creek now, except ono Justice of tho peace, and he waa ono of the leaders ot the strike and Is a socialist." Senator Kenyon inquired if the trouble was due to drlr.k. "Largely," replied Woods. "They ar more radical after the bot tles are opened," suggested Seymour 3ted- man, attorney for the United Mine Workers. Guard Describes Battle. Battles between the Paint creek strikers and guards were described by W. AV. Phaup, In charge of the guards. The climax of his story was an account ot being left for dead after an encounter on July 25, 1913. His coat, he said, pierced with bulletholes, was cut tip at a miners' meeting and ple'ccs were worn on coat lapels as souvenirs. He first told ot 200 shots pouring down on his six men on May 29, 1912, as they were on their way to breakfast, without arms. He then decided that a machine gun was neces sary If tho guards wore to bo protected against men hidden in the mountain foliage. Shot Three Tliuea. He told of being shot off a handcar at Holly grove and his companion being killed. As he revived, he said, ho heard one striker sav: "Don't shoot any more; that's got him." Phaup dragged himself to a hos pltal two miles away with his arm broken by a bullet, another bullet buried below his shoulder blade and a bullet wound In his chest. "The doctor at tho hospital was afraid of trouble and put out tho report that I had died on tho operating table," said Phaup. "I lost my coat on the way to the hospital and tho next Sunday when Mother Jones made a speech she exhib ited it and said It waa decorated to suit her. The miners hung It on a fence and then cut it up into little pieces to wear on tlrelr coats as souvenirs." He testified he hdd not seen tho dem onstration himself.

The injured youth said: "I am 19 years old and I was soon to be through school down In OI)o, so that I might help my mother and give my kid brother an edu cation. I am sorry they wired mother. because I did not want her to know." Shenandoah Class in Agriculture Consists of Girls SIfBNANDOAH, la., Sept. 4. (Special.)

II, Speer, when In tervlewed in regard to tho amaslng state ot affairs in the new department, laughed and said, "It's all very simple, Tho farm boys who will take the course have not yet enrolled. They will como In a few weeks late.
