To the Editor of the World-Herald: The writer, a member of the Nebras ka legislature, was in Omaha on Simday, Monday and Tuesday of this week. It is my annual cus tom to attend the Ak-Sar-Ben festival. I witnessed from afar the lynching of the negro, Brown, and the fire. There were at least 50,000 persons within 300 yards of the court house. I inquired for .the police force and was told 300 of them were in hiding in side the court house; that the chief of police had even taken to the roof. Should the governor call a spe cial session of the legislature to relieve Douglas county's finan cial straits, I will demand on the floor of the house that the resig nations of five county commis sioners, the sheriff and his entire force, the chief of the fire de partment and the seven city com missioners be in the hands of the legislature before actio" for relief is taken. Such pig-headed, bone headed work surpasses all intel ligent belief. The governor should tolerate no scapegoats be made to suffer for this affair. CORN BELT REPRESENTATIVE.

MEXICO Bodies Located by Geological Survey Party Discovers Skull of One Badly Crushed. Nogales, Ariz., Nov. 4. Lieuts. Frederick Waterhouse and Cecil M. Connolly, American aviators lost in Mexico, were apparently murdered after landing near Los Animos Bay, Mexico, according to members of the San Francisco survey party which arrived here from Los Ani mos Bay with corroboration of the statement of Joseph Allen Richards, who claimed to have located the bodies of the American aviators. J. Vandergraft and H. R. Crane of the geological survey party brought teeth taken from the skulls of the two bodies found by their party near Los Animos Bay. These were delivered to army dental sur geons for identification. They said one of the skulls was badly crushed, and the body showed evidences of stab wounds on the arms. The position of one of the bodies indicated death had come while the men were asleep, while the other, indicated by tensed muscles, that a fight had preceded the murder of the two Americans, the geologists stated here.

Arrange ments for the opening Monday of the industrial and labor conference called by President Wilson virtually are complete with only the question of whether the railroad unions would send delegates unsettled.

There is no question, however, but that deliberations will begin Monday afternoon in the Hall of Nations at the Pan-American Union building as planned. Timothy Shea of the firemen's brotherhood, the only executive of the four big brotherhoods now in Washington, said the railroad unions were acting together and that no decision had been reached as to whether they would send delegates.
