MAKES DISCLOSURES ON TRIP
Makei Promise to Maloney that He
WiU Tell All in Further
Talks.
DRESSED NEATLY IN BLUE SUIT
m Arthur Hauser, accused of the
murder of W. II. Smith, Woodmen
of the World cashier, arrived la
Omaha shortly after noon yesterday
In the custody of Detective Maloney
and Officer L. T. Finn.
Maloney evaded a crowd which
had gathered at the depot and the
city Jail to see the prisoner. The
party got off the train at Albright
and In a private automobile was
rushed to Omaha and directly Into
the garage at the rear of headquar
ters. Hauser was then taken
.through an underground passage
from the garage to the Jail, with the
result that newspaper men, photog
raphers and spectators were disap
pointed. Several secured Just a glimpse of
the fellow, who utterly belies the
photographs published of him. The
prominent nose and weak mouth are
evident, but the man himself is bet
ter appearing, decidedly, than his
picture.
Ha user Well Drfmrd.
Dressed in a blue serge suit, with clean
linen, a brown Fedora hat and well poi-
shed shoes, the ape-man betrayed little
of his Simian characteristics. He was
handcuffed, and one foot was encased
in an Oregon boot, but despite this fact
he hurried more than the officers In an
effort to avoid public scrutiny. There
was a (rest scrambling of photographers
to snap the fellow, but their efforts
were of little or no avail.
Promises to Tell All.
"He asked that no one be allowed to
take his picture, and until I have talked
with him further his request will be
(ranted," asserted the captain. "Neither
will h be Interviewcd-at present. I have
his promise that if his requests are met
he will make a clean breast of every
thing." Just what Maloney meant by "a clean
breast of everything" he refused to di
vulge, although he asserted that Hauser
made some startling disclosures enroute
from Wichita to Omaha.
The party left Wichita last Mght and
were escorted to their car by a number
of plain clothes men. A crowd gathered
at the Wichita, station in such volumo
that the prisoner was taken through the
baggage room to avoll it. Along the way
word had leaked out that Hauser was on
the train, but no demonstration was made

NEBRASKA CREDIT
IN EAST IS GOOD
Financiers Longing to Loan State
Half Million Dollars at 3 3-4
Per Cent Interest
NO WAY TO TAKE UP OFFER
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, Nov. 23. (Special.)
Whether it is the State university
foot ball team or Joe Stecher, or
whether it is a reputation for honesty
that has put Nebraska in the top
notch class with the financiers of the
east, is not known, but according to
information received by State Treas
urer Hall, New York money dealers
would be tickled to death to loan
Nebraska several hundred thousand
dollars and only charge 3 per cent
Interest.
They have written Treasurer Hall that
"we would be glad to make a loan of
(300.0VO to fX1,000 to the state of Nebracka
for tlx n.onths at 3 per cent,
with the understanding that it is
to lie renewed at maturity at
tho same rate as often as desired. This
would not only put you in a position to
take care of the excess demand on all
loans In the various political subdivisions
of your state, but, by taking these loans
at 5 per cent you could make a profit of
114 Per cent."
The plan looks good to Treasurer Hall
from a financial standpoint, but the state
not borrow money without an act of
tho legislature and there is no law which
will permit It to go Into the brokerage
business.

Stomach of Woman
CHICAGO, Nov. 23. The table knife
which Mrs, Elisabeth Hochsberger
finally persuaded aurtteons she had swal
lowed whl!e In a delirium due to lllnesi
eight months ato. was taken from her
sterna' h today by an operation at' the
WeU Bide hospital.
The knKe was corroded and saw
edged from the action of the stomach
aclis, and physicians said that nature
had made heroic efforts to digest tho.
Implement. The woman rallied well from
the operation.
When she first told of having swal
lowed the knife physicians said her story
was a figment of the imagination, .but
yesterday she prevailed upon them to
use the X-ray, and the resulting photo
graphs vindicated her.

RYAN TESTIFIES
AGAINST HALF IN
Convicted Clairvoyant Says Hit
Profits in Four Months Exceeded
Sixty Thousand.
HE WORKED UNDER PROTECTION
CHICAGO. Nov. 23. Testifying
today at the trial of John Halpln,
former captain of police, on trial for
biibery, "Jlmmy" Ryan, convicted
c!alrroyaot,wlhtfJfcf, testified . that
operating under police protection Bis
P'oflts from clairvoyancy , between
October, 1912, and March, 1913,
amounted to between $60,000 and
S70.000.
This, he said, included Ms share of
$16,600, which Mrs. Hope McEldow
ney of La Crosse, Wis., gave him to
invest in "copper stocks."
In March, 1913, he said he went to his
home in Wyoming, but was brought back
to Chicago two months later by a detec
tive from the states attorney's office.
Ryan told of "working" under the
alias of "Prof. Charles T. Crane" and
of meeting in his brother Frank's clair
voyant parlor, Walter O'Brien, a former
subordinate of Halpln's and recently
found guilty of bribery.
"O'Brien is a nephew of Captain P.
D. O'Brien, who was suspended last
nlsht as chief of detectives on charges
that he had been Instrumental In rals-
Irur a forced fund for the defense of
I his nephew and other policemen Involved
I in the clairvoyant graft cases.
John E. Northup, attorney for Halpln,
charged that the suspension of Captain
O'Brien had been engineered so as to
intimidate policemen who might be called
to testify for his client.
Frank Johnson, jr., first assistant
states attorney, entered a vigorous de
nial to this Insinuation.
Kyan testified that Walter O'Brien told
him to go ahead with plans for an
elaborate ''place" on North Stat street,
but to "be careful" because In that lo
cation he would be under the "bosa
nose."
Widows' Tag Day
in Chicago Arouses
Strong Protests
CHICAGO, 111., Nov. 23.-Chlcago's
charitable organizations today began a
campaign to obtain Mayor Thompson's
veto of a resolution passed by the city
council last night setting aside Decem
ber 14 as a "Tag day" for needy
widows.
The resolution provides that widows
shall do their own tagging and retain
all money collected. Aldermen would
supply the necessary credentials. Those
detained by Ill-health could provide au
thorized representatives.
The objection to the "Tag day" is that
It would promote beggary and expose to
Jibes and Insults women who appeared on
the streets labeled "Widows."
It la estimated there are 32,500 widows
In Chicago, but the proportion of the
needy ones Is not known.

'CAPTAIN BOY-ED IS

WITNESS FLEES TO BERMUDA
NEW YORK, Nov. 23. An impor
tant witness tor the government in
the case against Karl Bueni, manag
ing director, and employes ot the
Hamburg-American line, charged
with sending supply ships to German
warships in the -Atlantic, has left the
Jurisdiction of the United Slates. He
is now In Bermuda.
This became known today when the
court reconvened for the second day
of the trial, which passed the Jury
filling stage an hour after the ses
sion began with the securing of the
twelfth man. The name of this wit
ness and what cog he waa In the
government's machinery were not
disclosed by Roger D. Wood, as
sistant district attorney, In charge of
the prosecution. Mr. Wood said,
however, that the man knew he
would be wanted to testify.
Immediately after the Jury box was
filled, William Hand, of counsel for the
defense, notified Assistant Attorney
Wood that the defense would withdraw
that part of the previous admission per
taining to the alleged connection of Cap
tain K. Boy-ed. German naval attache,
with the acts charged by the government.
Thla part ot the admission made by the
defendants . stated that Captain Boj'-ed
had been consulted regarding the Bond
ing of steamship with supplies to Ctor
man sea raiders, and that ths work had
been carried on largely under the naval
attache's direction. N1 reason for with
drawing the admission waa given.

in almost the first words of his open

that Captain K. Boy-ed, German naval
attache, directed the chartering and
loading of some of the vessels and that
$714,000 for relief of German warships was
spent under his direction here.
"We expect to show," Mr. Wood said,
"that this conspiracy extended from jsew
York and Philadelphia to Ban Francisco
and New Orleans. We expefit to show
that Mr. BuenB employed a man named
Kulenkampf t'i clear two vessels In a

gariana by the 8erbiana In a battle
In central Serbia is announced In an
official communication given out at
the Serbian legation here today. Five
Bulgarian cannon were raptured.
LONDON, Ne"v72S. The latest
newg from the Balkans has revived
hope in England that Monastir may
hold out long enough to enable the
French and British forces to effect a
Junction with the Serbians. The.
Rome and London legations of Ser
bia have received reports of a great
Serglan victory northeast of Prlstlna,
but aa these advices gtva neither de
talla nor dates, there are doubts as
to their Importance.
It Is now believed allied forces which
may take refuge on Greek territory are
hardly likely to be subjected to attack
from the rear. The most significant In
dication aa to the present attitude of
Greece Is contained in remarks made by
M. Rhallts, Greek minister of Justice,
who Is quoted In a press dispatch as hav
ing complained bitterly of methods
adopted by the entente allies. He argued
that their tardiness In bringing effective
support for the Serbians made Greek par
ticipation Impossible.
M. Rhallls declared, however, that the
Greeks were determined to maintain neu
trality and that the entente allies had
no reason to fear danger If they should
be forced across the Greek border.
French Position Improved.
The French military position in Mace
donia la reported to have Improved. Tha
assertion la made that the Bulgarians re
tired to their positions after a vain at
tack on the French lines.
The seat of the Serbian government haa
again been shifted, on thla occasion to
Prlsrend, while the diplomatics corps has
moved to Petch, Montenegro.
A message from Constantinople by way
of Germany reports the resumption of a
violent offensive by the allies on tha Dar
danelles. No confirmation of thla ra
port has been received.
