LOEBER CONFESSES.
MILWAUKEE'S MURDER MYS-
Terry CLEARED UP.
Circumstantial Story of the killing of
Moritz Told by Loeber-Claims That
the Shooting was Accidenral-News of
the Northwest.

Milwaukee, Wis, March 19-William
Loeber confessed yesterday that he
killed Ferdinand Moritz, but claims the
shooting was accidental. He said:
"Moritz came to my house on Thursday,
March T. and said he wanted to take me
with him to go somewhere and take
skins off some dead horses. 1 asked
him when we should go; he said the next
day, early, between and o'clock in
the morning, so that the neighbors
would not see us take the skins. He
came at o'clock. I harnessed up my
horse and we started off. l asked him
where we should so. He said we should
go to North Greenfield, but he did not
give me the exact place. Near the
crossing of the Wauwatosa road, at
Baumleach's farm, he asked me If had
my revolver. / had it with me and told
him so. AS / handed 1t over to him
the horse became frightened and the
revolver went off. I finally brought the
horse to a standstill and as it stopped
saw had nearly shot Moritz dead and
that he bled. 1 was so frightened L did
not know what to do, so / went little
further on and carried him out of the
wagon. AS 1 came back 1 found his
pocketbook that must have fallen from
his inside coat pocket. / picked 1t up
and found s12 or SIS in it. There was no
more. 1 did not know what to do, was
so frightened. AT first thought of an
nouncing it to the police. but did not do
it, as / feared the consequences. Then
drove back, turning off at about Thir-
ty-second street and down Cherry street
home"
The police do not believe this story,
but think the murder was deliberately
planned. The story that he did not rifle
the pockets of the dead man is not borne
out by the evidence, as when the body
was discovered the clothes were cut al
most off it and the pockets were turned
inside out. There is probability Loeb
er will save the county the expense of a
trial and plead guilty, although he
may face it out on the strength of his
claim of accidental shooting.

OUR TRADE UNFRAMED.
French Embargo on Meats InconsequentaI
Because Shipments Are Small.

Because Shipments Are Small.
Paris, March 19.-M Rollin, manas-
ing partner of the Paquin Compagnie,
which has practically monopoly of
the importation of American cattle in
to France, said yesterday.
THE first notable effort to open up
a market for American cattle was made
in 1880, when 1000 head were consigned
to us. The prices realized We're not high
enough to tempt American exporters to
continue shipping until 1893, when the
drought in France began to make it
profitable. In 1894 we imported $4,000
head. The most of this consignment
was sold at remunerative prices, until
August of that year, when prices
dropped until, by November they had
become so low that only one exporter,
Nelson Norris of Chicago, continued
consigning.
THE trade is now so small that the
prohibition of importation of American
cattle practically amounts to nothing.
Resembling the prohibitory order would
