Mrs. Kelly Says Confession Was
Wrung From Kelly hy "Torture"
Logan, la., Sept. 2. (Special Telegram.) Mrs. Lyn G. -J. Kelly says
it is true that Kelly signed a confession, but he did so as a result of an all
night struggle with the state and court officials and others who showed him
papers purporting to be testimony to be given against him in his coming
trial for murder. -
When Kelly called for his attorneys, Mrs. Kelly says he was told his at
torneys could do him no good, but if he would sign a confession he would
not be tried for murder and then would be sent to the state hospital for
treatment. , , . -
Mrs. Kelly says she left her husband early in the evening Thursday, but
on going to the jail at 8 o'clock the following morning, she was shocked to
see the officials bring Kelly from the court house where he had been with
out a friend all night.
Further Mrs. Kelly says that when her husband saw the automobiles on
the street going to and from the Old Settlers' picnic at Magnolia, saw the
people go to and from the court house, he thought the day of trial was at
hand, and became greatly excited and asked for his attorneys, as he was
afraid that he was "giving away," and that he might say or do something
that he should not. ,
She denounces as unfair and unjust the alleged advantage taken by the
officers of Kelly's physical and mental condition to secure a confession.
READY TO FACE JURY. Q
Rev. Lyn George J. Klly, who will
starfd trial Tuesday for complicity in
the "Villisca murders," is Said by his
attorneys to be in fine condition for
the proceedings which will begin to
morrow. "
"We went to Logan to find what
physical condition Kelly is really in.
We found hira in the best of spirits
and anxious to have the proceedings
begin so he could clear himself," said
T. A. McKenzie, of the firm of Sutton,
McKenzie & Cox, attorneys for Kelly,
who returned from Logan Sunday
evening.
Insist Confession Formed.
"When the state agent faced Kelly
Thursday night he told the prisoner
that he wanted a confession so he
could go to Red Oak and place it
before the grand jury, clearing Jones,"
McKenzie said.
'A --paper'iad ieerrtoU W.:.for
Kelly to sign which stated that he
did not want his attorneys myself and
Mr. Sutton) allowed admission to his
cell. He was also told that Detective
Wilkerson was a dangerous person
and that he should have nothing to
do with him. ,
"The Logan people are much in
censed over the third degree proceed
ings and say that nothing like that
will ever happen again in their town.
"The Red Oak people also stated
that majority of the citizens thought
our client innocent and wanted to see
him given a just trial.
Strong Circumstantial Evidence.
There u some strong circumstantial
evidence pointing to Kelly's guilt.
Several witnesses have told of his ar
rival at Macedonia on the early train
Monday morning and relating the full
details of the Villisca tragedy nearly
two hours before the crime was dis
covered at Villisca.
A few days after the murders,
Kelly went to Council Bluffs and left
a package of laundry at the office of
the Bluff City laundry on North
Main street. It was late in the eve
ning, long after the laundry office
had closed. He thrust the package
through an opening in the door. He
enclosed a note directing'the laundry
to be sent to Macedonia and signed
it with part of his initials. " v
When the package was opened the
next morning, the witnesses said it was
t'ound to contain axblood-stained shirt
with Kelly's initials on the band. The
laundry has an 'agency at Macedonia.

PEACE TALKERS
ACT, TOO QUICK
FOR SOLDIERS
Given Authority by Mayor
Thompson of Chicago, Ad
journ Before State Troops
Arrive to Stop Them.
. .(By Auodated Pre.)- - -
Chicago, Sept. V 2- After being
driven from three states, the People's
Council of America for Democracy
and the1 Terms of Peace perfected a
formal organization at a. public meet
ing in Chicago today.
The session was held under pro
tection of the police acting on orders
from Mayor William Hale Thompson,
which were in defiance of Governor
Frank O. Lowden. Four companies
of National Guardsmen rushed from
the state capital on a special train to
prevent the meeting, arrived after it
had adjourned, its purpose accom
plished. REASON FOR CLASH.
The clash in authority between
Mayor Thompson and Governor
Lowden came as the result of the
action of the police in breaking up the
pacifists meeting yesterday on orders
from the governor.
When the mayor who was at his
summer home at Lake Forest heard
of this he declared that the governor
had exceeded his authority and imme
diately instructed Chief Schuttlerito
permit the meeting and to give the
delegates every protection. . '
When the pacifists heard of the
mayor's action immediate prepara
tions were made to hold the meeting
which had been prevented in Min
nesota, North Dakota and Wisconsin
and had been forbidden as unpatriotic
and disloyal by the governor of
Illinois.

On this annual subscription day all
Omaha passes approval on the work
so faithfully carried on for many
years by Mrs. W. R. Adams.
Though old and bereft of her
strength, her eyesight failing, Mr
Adams is always brought to tag day

generous response of the Omaha pub
lic to the appeal for help for Omaha's
favorite charity.
Though many contributions have
been asked for war relief, this appeal
is made for a home charity. The
work of the Visiting Nurse associa

winter because of the additional care
of the families of soldiers serving at
the front.

PLAN FLIGHT IN A
' BIG KITE BALLOON
Captain Davidson and Lieuten
ant Goodale to Try-Experiment
of Sailing Away in
Contrivance.
Fate and the elements being will
ing, a "stunt" worth more than pass
ing attention will be given at Fort
Omaha, Monday morning.
Lieutenant Goodale and Captain
Davidson have undertaken to take a
flight in a kite balloon. The kite bal
loon, as the public now generally
knows, is not meant for tree Hying.
It is usually safely attached to the
earth by strong ropes and no one
knows just what may happen when
the ropes are cut and the balloon goes
sailing away. '
But Lieutenant Goodale is a fa
mous New York balloonist of years
standing, and Captain Davidson, who
recently received promotion at Fort
Omaha for unusual ability in the bal
loon work there, is noted for his dar
ing. These two have volunteered to
try this unusual feat.
"The purpose of it is to see what
they would be able to do at the front,
if the balloon in which they were ob
serving, should break loose, or the
ropes be severed," said Leo Stevens,
chief instructor in balloon manage
ment at the fort.
v Novel, Untried Situation.
"I cannot tell just what they may
be called upon to do," added Mr.
Stevens. 'The kite balloon, when
adrift, may act in any one of ten dif
ferent ways, depending upon the at
mospheric and other conditions that
morning."
If it becomes necessary, the two
balloonists will jump. Alj passengers
in both the free and kite balloons, at
Fort Omaha, have always their
parachuttes attached to their backs.
These open automatically when the
man jumps. -, . v
These; parachutes, "which were in
vented by Leo Stevens, are perfectly
safe. They have never been known
to fail in opening. They have been
tested often this summer at the fort
by sending them down with sand bags
attached.
I Major Hersey, acting commander of
the post, has so far forbidden para
chute leaps, though the students are
clamoring to try.
"There is no danger of the para
chutes not opening," said Major Her
sey yesterday, "but the ground around
here is not open enough. There are
too, many trees and telegraph 'wires.
A man might descend safely till he
neared the ground, then get caught on
a telegraph pole and injure himself
badly."
Nearly Cost Life.
The most unpleasant night ever
spent by Leo Stevens was several
years ago when he paddled about all
night in Lake Erie, hanging on to the
basket of a big balloon which had
landed in the middle of the lake.
"Fortunately, I had h'ought a life
preserver along," said Mr. Stevens. "I
had set out to cross Lake Erie, but I
almost found a watery grave instead.
Near morning I was rescued by a
passing steamer. I spent the fol
lowing three months in a hospital."
All of which is but an incident of a
balloonist's life. After years of bal
looning Mr. Stevens is glad that bal
looning, the hobby of a few sports
men, has now become a serious mat
ter to the nation and that his long ex
perience will aid his country in time
of need.

Executive Approves of Con
ference of American Alli
ance for Labor and De
mocracy Soon to Open.
Washington, Sept. 2. Hearty ap
proval of the conference of the Ameri
can Alliance for Labor and democracy
to be held at Minneapolis, next Tues
day and thetask it will undertake of
suppressing disloyalty has been given
by President Wilson in a letter to
Samuel Gompers, president of the
American Federation of Labor and
chairman of the alliance.
The letter made public here today,
denounces those "who seek to ignore
America's grievance against Germany
and insists "That a nation whose citi
zens have been foully murdered
under their own flag, whose neighbors
have been invited to join in making
conquest of its territory and whose
patience in pressing the claims ot jus
tice and humanity lias been met with
the most .shameful policy of truculence
and treachery, docs not know its own
mind and has no comprehensible rea
son for defending itself.
Must Fight Disloyalty.
"While our soldiers and sailors are
doing their manful work to hold back
reaction in its most brutal and ag
gressive form," the president wrote,
'we must oppose at home the organ
ized and individual efforts of those
dangerous elements who hide dis
loyalty behind a screen of specious
and evasive phrases."
The letter follows:
"My Dear Mr. Gompers: I am sure
that you understand that my inability
to accept the invitation to address
the Minneapolis conference of the
American Alliance for Labor and De
mocracy is due only to official neces
sity and not in any degree to lack of
appreciation of the importance of the
occasion. The cause you and your
fellow patriots uphold is one with the
cause we are defending with arms.
While our soldiers and sailors are
doing tfreir manful work to hold back
reaction in its most brutal and ag
gressive form, we must oppose at
home the organized and individual ef
forts of those dangerous elements
who hide disloyalty behind a screen
01 specious ana evasive pnrases.
"I have read with real pride the
names' of the mcfl and -women who
are to take part in the Minneapolis
conference. Not one but has a record
of devoted service to . fundamental
democracy; not one but has fought
the long, hard fight for equal justice,
braving every bitterness that the ham
blest life might know a larger meas
ure of happiness. v
Workers Hold Gains.
"With all my heart I want them to
feel that their devotion to country is
in no wise a betrayal of principle and
that in serving America today they arc
serving thejr cause no less faithfully
than in the past. I myself have had
sympathy with the fears of the work
ers of the United States; for 'the tend
ency of war is toward reaction and
too often military necessities have,
been made an excuse for the destruc
tion of labor erected industrial and
social standards. These fears, happily,
have proved to be baseless. With
quickened sympathies and apprecia
tion, with a new sense of the invasive
and insidious dangers of oppression,
our people have not only held every
inch of ground that has been won by
years of struggle, but have added to
the gains of the twentieth century
along every tirre of human betterment.
Questions of wages and hours of labor
and industrial- readjustment have
found a solution which gives the toil
er a new dignity and a new sense of
social and economic security. I beg
you to feel that my support has not
been lacking and that the government
has not failed at any point in grant
ing every just request advanced by
you and your assistants in the name
of the American worker.
"No one who is not blind can fail
o see that the battle line. of democ
racy for America stretches today from
the fields of Flanders to every home
and workshop where toiling, upward
striving men and women are count
ing the treasures of right and justice
and liberty which are being threat

JEFF W.BEDFORD,
PIONEER OF CITY
AND STATE, DEAD
Death due to Weakening of
Heart, Caused by Overexer
tion While in Colorado
Two Weeks Ago.
Jefferson W. Bedford, county com
missioner of Douglas, died at the resi
dence of his son, E. W. Bedford, 3220
Lafayette avenue, at 9:10 o'clock Sat
urday night, aged 72 years. Death
was due to weakening of the heart,
caused by overexertion on a trip in
Colorado two weeks ago. .
Mr. Bedford was born in Lexing
ton, Mo in 184S, and located in Ne
braska .City m 1862, engaging in
freighting for the government be
tween Nebraska, City and Denver and
Fort Laramie.
In 1864 Mr. Bedford enlisted, in the
Third Colorado cavalry and was in
the Sand Creek battle with Indians,
being wounded by arrows three times.
In 1865 he engaged in business in
Lexington and Joplin, Mo., from
whence he went to Litchfield, Kas.,
and operated a coal mine and supply
store.
Mr. Bedford came into Omaha on
the first engine run over the Missouwi
Pacific in 1S81 and had resided here
since, with the exception of four year
spent in Kirksville, Mo.
Always a Democrat.
A lifelong democrat, Mr. Bedford
was elected to the city council of
JEFF W.. BEDFORD.
Omaha in 1887, and in 1893 ran for
mayor. Ii190S he was again elected
to the city council and in 1908 a coun
ty commissioner. He was chairman
of the committee on construction of
the, new $1,000,000 court house. "
Mr. Bedford was One of the organ

Deep Sleep Attacks Ritchie
After Dip Into "Spirits" City
R. F. Ritchie, who gave his address
as 1918 North Twenty-sixth street,
loves to sleep. Yesterday afternoon
he fulfilled his desire on his return
journey from St. Joseph, the city of
"spirits." He fell into a deep sleep, on
the Burlington train, due to the effects
of Kentucky spirits on his nerves.
In fact, when the train had arrived
in Omaha, insomnia had taken such a
tight and charming grip on Ritchie
that the conductor on the train spent
much time and patience trying to
drive away the spirits so the "sleeping
beauty" would wake up. But Ritchie
could not be awakened at that par
ticular time. Officer Chaddock was
called to "work out" cn Ritchie, with
the result that, in the finals, whisky

U. S. Starts Strictest Ration

(Br AnaoeUted rr.)
Washington, Sept. .--Indications
that the United States intends to ra
tion the northern European " neutral
countries in the strictest fashbu were
seen today in the admissjpn that tlic
expbrts adiitjfsttiye! froard had dis
approved ofn arrangement suggest
edy the Dutch minister here and
the Belgian- relief commission fbr
division between H6lland and Bel
gium of the nearly 100 Dutch grain
cargoes held in American ports.
The first news that permission for
the ships to sail had been denied came
today in a dispatch from Rotterdam.
The general understanding had been
that the arrangement would be ap
proved and that some of the vessels
would 6ail immediately.
Look Out for United States First.
The exports board, it was learned,
will let no food cargoes go to Euro
pean neutrals for atjeast two months,
or until the American government has
a-scertained its own food requirements!
for the year and the size of crops to
be harvested. All of the neutrals, it
is held, can feed themselves without
difficulty until this information is
available. The United States wishes
to know also the size of the 1917
crops in the neutral countries.
It was made clear that the United
States has no intention of letting neu
trals go hungry, but emphasis was
laid on the fact that the government
feels its first obligation is to the
American people and to the allies.
Counter Proposal Made.
A counter proposal that has been
made to the Dutch, which the other
neutrals are invited to accept, is that
all neutral vessels now in American
ports loaded with foodstuffs discharge
their cargoes and proceed tt Aus
tralia and Java for wheat and sugar.
These cargoes would be brought back
to the United States and divided be
tween the United States and the neu
trals. x
American government officials feel
that in asking the United States to
supply them with foodstuffs the neu
trals should be willing to increase the
general food supply. This they would
do in transporting food cargoes from
Australia and Java, where large sup
plies canuot be moved because of the
general lack rf shipping. The neu
tral ships would have returned within
two months and by that time the
United States would be in a better
position also to say how much it can
spare from its own food stores.
Most of the Dutch ships in Amer
ican ports are loaded with corn,
wjiich has spoiled and is fit now only
for cattle feed.
was discovered on Ritchie's person
and also in his grip.
When Officer Chaddock arrived on
the scene, a whisky-soaked breath
greeted his presence. He awakened
Ritchie, who only responded with a
yawn. That yawn ca-used Chaddock
to enter into some investigation, with
the result that twenty-two half pints
of whisky and a hollow base ball bat
were found ii Ritchie's grip, neatly
packed. Evidently, the bat was to be
used to convey the liquor secretly to
some of his friends in "need."
Ritchie was taken to the police sta

possession of intoxicating liquor. He
