Office this afternoon. He told Coroner
H9ber that the death yesterday of Ed
ward Won Kalanyi (the originator of liv-
ing pictures) had occurred under suspi-
cious circumstances at his late home yes
terday afternoon. Coroner Heber re-
quested the police to keep the woman
with whom Kalanyi had been living under
surveillance pending an investigation.

Western Roads Agreeing.

CHICAGO, ILL.,. Dec. 5.-The threatened
dissolution of the Southwestern Traffic
Association has been averted for the time
being at least. The Cotton Belt road
recently withdrew and it was feared that
this withdrawal would be followed by
others and the life of the association thus
placed in danger. To-day the Cotton Belt
road agreed to rescind its withdrawal for
ten days, pending the outcome of the ad-
visory committee of the Western immi-
grant clearinghouse controversy with
the Southern Pacific. 1t was intimated
that the Western roads had agreed upon
what percentage they would allow the
Southern Pacific, and that the whole mat
ter might be satisfactorily adjusted.

WERE BEATEN TO DEATH.
An Aged Wom0n and q Man Killed In a
Brutal Munaer

COLUMBIA, S. c., Dec. 5.-News of a
dastardly lynching which occurred in this
State last Monday night reached here to-
night. 1t took place in Coleton County,
near the Barnwell and Hampton lines, and
was not known generally in that vicinity
until Wednesday morning, when the dead
bodies of two victims, stripped of their
clothing, were found, one being an old
woman. They had been taken out and
beaten to death with buggy traces. The
mans offense was that he was suspected of
having stolen Bible and some furniture
from church, and the woman's offense
being that she was supposed to know
something of 1t. Liquor seems to be the
on Iy incentive to the deed.
