LATINER Is CAPTURED.
The Triple Murderer Is Again in
the Penitentiary.
STORY OF HIS ESCAPE.
He Had Worked on the Plan for Over
a Year.
His Wonderful Nerve Gives Way When
He Is Placed in the g Solitary " ana
He Breaks Down Crying
Like Child.

JACKSON, Mich, March Or. Irving
Latiner, the triple murderer, was caught
last night, at jerome, and brought here,
and again lodged in the penitentiary at
3:45 this morning. During the long ride
from jerome, he told the story of his es-
cape. He said he had been at work on
the plan over a year. He made an ex-
haustIve study of the effects of poisons,
and declared he had no intention of kill
ing Haight, and gave Gill the same dose
as he did Haight. He said ne would
rather have rotted in prison than killed
Haight. sSThe dose he gave them was a
mixture of opium and prussic acid; the
intended effect was for the opium to cause
sleep, and of the prusS1c acid to make it
take effect at once. He administered it in
glass of lemonade. There was certainly
a mistake somewhere. as he had no in
tention of doing anything mora than
make the men sleep half an hour.
The rafting of a dish when Haight fell
disarranged all plans as it brought Price
to the scene, but for that he would have
been able to leave the prison, drive
rapidly away in buggy and before sue
cessful pursuit could have been organized
would have been 200 miles away. He de-
clared that Gill was not to blame in any
way except for carelessness.
Latimer told the story OF his wander
ings after his escape, and said he might
have escaped anyway, but for a sprained
ankle which handicapped his movements
and settled all chance Of his getting away.
LaLlmer was this afternoon placed IN
the solitary cell where he will undoubt-
eddy remain for some time to come. AS
he entered the tsolitary" the wonderful
nerve which has stood by him ever since
the murder, completely deserted him.
and he broke down and cried like {
child.

HAPPY AT OMAHA.
Employees in the Headquarters Building
Rejoice Over Mr.. CIark's Action.

Employees in the Headquarters Building
Rejoice Over Mr.. CIark's Action.
OMAHA, March 29.-There were wild
scenes about the Union Pacific head
quarters this morning. The dignity and
perfect department of five hundred people
in the headquarters building were at a
low ebb, due to telegram announcing
that the board OF directors had refused
President Clarl,'s resignation, and that
he would resign as president of the Mis-
souri, Pacific, and remain and devote his
whole time TO the Union Pacific. Where
doubt and uncertainty existed caused by
rumors Of the new man to take the place
OF the retiring president, and overturn
the policy OF the road, there reIgned pro-
found JOY that few changes would be
made, and the rank and file of the service
Will remain as now constituted. Tonight
there is no happier lot of people than the
men and women employed at Union Pa
cific headquarters.
NDirector Samuel Sloan thus explained
the action OF the directors: "Mr. Clark
has been a valuable man to the Union Pa
cific, and the directors did not want to let
him go. He was therefore prevailed up
on TO withdraw his resignation as presi-
dent. There is no discord between the
Missouri Pacific and the Union Pacific
over the matter. The Missouri Pacific
directors have not met yet. When they
do they viii elect another president Tor
their road. The two boards are acting in
harmony with each other"

CLARK WILL REMAIN.
His Resignation as President of the
Union Pacific Withdrawn.
He VIII Resign the Presidency of TIN
Missouri Pacific. but VIII Continue
One OF the Directors.

New YORK, March 2s.-At the unan-
imous request of the board of directors of
the Union Pacific road S. H. Il. Clark has
withdrawn his resignation and will con-
tinue the presidency. He viii resign the
presidency of the Missouri Pacific, but
will continue one of the directors.
The determination of President Clark to
remain with the Union Pacific caused
Missouri Pacific to drop from ais to 494
on the Stock exchange, where the brok-
ers were unable to understand what
forces controlled Clark action, George
Gould, when seen IN regard to the matter,
said:
Mr.. Clark will retire from the presi-
dency OF the Missouri Pacific to give his
entire attention to the Union Pacific. We
are very sorry TO lose him from the Mis-
souri, Pacific. ! consider him one Of the
ablest railway men in the United States.
The Union Pacific interests wished to
retain him and we reluctantly consented.
Assistant General Manager Smith will be
in charge OF the operation of the Mis-
souri, Pacific for the present. We have
not yet considered who will be MIR.
1 Clark IS successor as president.

This Question VIII Not Be Considered
for Several Weeks.
Wendell Benson Has AN Audience With
the Waiting for the
Tuscaroras.

WASHINGTON, March 29.-[special.l II
Wendell Benson, of Salt Lake city, candi-
date for marshal Of Utah, had an audience
with the president today in reference to
matters in the territory, and says it was
highly satisfactory, though he said moth
ing about his own case. The president
said he wanted TO do the proper thing by
the territories, but owing to the rush of
business it would be some weeks before
he could possibly give any serious con-
sideration to the question OF appointments
in Utah.
1t is understood that the president is
soon expecting visit from some of the
Tuscaroras. They have been writing
to Washington arranging for audiences ii
possible. 1t is said they are going to
specially ask for the marshalship, and
that they will favor Martin Lannan
brother to P. H. Lannan.

A GIGANTIC GRAIN DEAL.
Fierce Struggle Between the Bulls
and Bears.
A CORNER IN MAY WHEAT.
Remarkably Lively Time ON the Chicago
Board.
Prices Drop Seven Cents in a Few Min
utes--PartIes in the Corner Now
Control Eleven Million Bushels
of Wheat.

CHICAGO, March 29.-There were lively
times on the board of trade shortly after
noon. In view of the evident corner in
May wheat here, which has held that fu-
ture far above a parity with other markets
for several weeks, and has rendered ship
ments impossible, thereby filing ali the
elevators in the city to bursting, the board
of directors at a secret session last night,
decided that storage emergency exists.
Extra emergency houses viii now be Gre
ated as applications are made and the ne
cessity presents itself.
This fact was not known until about
noon. In the meantime in the early trad
ing, with Kansas and the whole west
clear according to the weather map and
no prospect OF rain, the shorts were ex-
cited and pushed prices up until the
clique began realizing heavily. The
early advance was aided by statements
that the reports of Secretary MOhler OF
Kansas had said the good rains through
cut the state were bogus. Private re-
/ ports from that state were bad.
When the clique began to sell, how
ever, and the action on the board became
known, there was great rush to buy and
the price went of in great jumps, tumb-
ling within few minutes from S2% tc

on the way down began TIC take profits
and there was quite a rapid recovery tC

and closed at 1875.
Tine clique had been selling two OF
three days. and, it is supposed, got rid o.
over 8, 900, 0D0 today. Business was almost
paralyzed for a time. Rumors are current
OF large private settlements by the clique
