THE WORK OF BRUTES.
An EIeven-Year-Old Girl Outraged and
Murdered by Two Men at Omaha.

Omaha, Neb.,: November Ada Cas-
kins's mutilated body was found in
small outbuilding in the rear Of 1907 and
a half Howard street, in the business
district of Omaha, at two o'clock this
morning. She had been outraged and
murdered. Within an hour George
Morgan, Ed. Sanford and Henry Booker,
all young men, were in custody charged
with the crime Ida Haskins was IL
years old. Her mother, a widow, lives
in the third floor of a tenement house
at 1914 Howard street. Ida was miss
ed from her home early in the evening.
Her mother searched for her, but failed
TO find any trace Of the missing girl.
At II o'clock she reported to the police
station that her daughter had dlsap-
peared When the police search deyel-
oped the murder three hours later,
rigorous investigation led to the arrest
Of Hooker on suspicion. While all were
out of the room save Gaskin, her little
son and a Bee reporter, the little boy
remarked: Il know who killed Ida"
On being question he said that during
the afternoon George and Ed sent me
upstairs to tell Ida they wanted her."
The reporter learned that George and
Ed" were Morgan and Sanford and that
they occipied rooms on the floor below.
Hurriedly calling an officer, the report
er secured the arrest OF the pair. At
the station, most damaging evidence
was found on MOrgan's person.
The little girl was choked to death,
her throat showing plainly where the
cruel fingers had left their imprint.
Hooker IS driver Of a coal wagon and
had been a friend of the Gascon family.
Morgan is a collar-maker by trade, but
has been out Of employment for some
time. Sanford works for the Crane ele-
vator Company. It is the opinion Of
the police that the case is conclusive
against Morgan.
The murder and rape of little Ida
Gaskill has been positively traced to
George Morgan. His clothes were COW
cred with blod when arrested. SO great
was the feeling against the prisoner
that he was hurTiedly removed to the
penltentiary at noon. Later a COM
mittee appointed by those favoring
lynching went through the Jail to sat
isfy the people that the murderer was
not there. Tonight a crowd Of several
hundred people surrounded the Jail.
They are orderly and drawn more by
curiosity than q disposition to violence

To-Day VIII Be the Most Remarkable
Political Contest

Baltimore. Nd, November A-The eve
OF Maryland's most critical political
battle finds the issue enshrouded in
doubt Both sides are claiming vic
tory but The tones in which they make
their boasts and the figures they cite as
a bass for their alleged belief do not
carry conviction to the mind Of an un-
prejudiced onlooker. The fact is that
everybody is at sea. because in the pres
ent contest the silent voter is a greater
factor than be has ever been in the his
tory Of Maryland politics. The hurrah
part Of the battle is over and the posi-
ton Of those who participated in it is
known and their votes already counted
by the party managers, but the ballot
of the silent voter is st.ll in his vest
pocket, and this year his name is le-
g.on. The fierce and persistent at
tacks upon Senator Gormon and the out
cry Of what his opponents term Cor

GOV. MKINLEY'S ESTIMATE.
Massilon, O.. November 4.-GOvernor
Mckinley remarked this afternoon that

Last year the Republicans carried
the State by 137,OS7,' he said, "but the
vote was about 10000 short. Now, fig
Campbell can possibly get more than
365 eco votes this year. Now, last year
his party p0lled only 276,9O2 votes, so
