A sioux City Tragedy.

Sioux City, Ia, August 25-Early this
morning in a disorderly house occurred
what was probably a murder and sui
eide. Max NOack, of Marcus. Ia. was
found dead in a room with a bullet
wound in his brain. BY his side lay
Hazel Hammond, an inmate of the
house, with a bullet wound in her head.
The doors OF the room in which the
bodies were found were locked and had
to be broken into. The lamp had been
overturned and the clothing of the dead
had commenced to burn when the trag>
edy was discovered. The cause of the
shooting Is unknown.
Noack had been in the city only few
weeks, ard was but little known. Ha-
eel Hammond, or Ora Minton, as her
right name Is said to be, is said to have
come from Central City, Neb where
her parents are reported to live. Noack
it is believed, was trying to induce the
woman to leave the live she was leading
and return to he: home and that when
she refused he shot her and then killed
himself. 1t is reported by some that
Noack was the woman's half brother,
and by others that he was her husband.
NOack formerly worked at Grand Island
and Lincoln, Neb. The doctors to
night say the woman may live.

Washington, August % The will of
the late Joseph Holt, judge advocate
general of the United States army dur
ing the war, was filed to-day. The in
strument was witnessed 20 years ago 10y
Generals Grant and Sherman and Mrs.
Sherman. The estate, valued at from
5000, 600 to $500, 900, is left to Lizzie
Hynes, niece, and Josephine Hart

died here several months ago, leaving
no will tthat could be found This
morning the register of wills received in
the mails a letter containing an old,
faded and partially burned sheet of pa
per, which on examination puIported to
be an old will of Judge Holt's. There
was no communication accompanying
the paper to show the sender or the mo
tive for transmitting it to the register.
The executor of the will thus strange
ly found Is Mr.. Deviin, a clerk in the
waT department, who was the conhden

will was written. He has identiti- d the
writing. About 80, 900 of the estate has
been distributed to the heirS>at law. anC

FREE wool Is surely working wonders
for labor Careful and conservative
lists show that since the Wilson reduced
tariff took effect last autumn there has
been an increase of wages in fifty Amer
lean wooden mills. This is quite pheno-
menal, and no logical explanation of the
facts is possible save that the great boom
of free wool which the Wilson bill gave
American wooden manufacturers has en-
abled them to expand and branch out
as they have never before done. The
wooden industries are placed by the new
tariff on high vantage ground for ob>
tanning satisfactory sales of their pro-
ducts both at home and abroad. Free
trade in raw woods Is a bonanza of un-
told value to them. This is the logic of
the greatly improved and improving sit
uation in all American wooden mills.
