MURDERS A SERVING WOMAN
Unknown Person Shoots Mrs, Mary Gilfllan
at 0sceola
EVIDENCE IMPulCATES A FARMERS sen
Authorities Issue Warrant for
Joseph WoIVc -ton ON suspicion
Tint lie Is the slayer
lie Disappears.

CRESTON, Ia, Dec. 2S-(Special Tele-
gramJ-A mysterious murder was commit
ted at Osceola Saturday night. Sunday even
ing c. e. Smith went to the railroad pump
house to get some tools. Lying upon the
floor of the house he found the body OF a
woman. There was a bullet wound in the
temple, and the hands were covered with
blood. He at once notified the officers and
the remains were taken to an undertaking es-
tablishment and identified as those of Mrs.
Mary Gilfllan, waitress at Howe's hotel.
Considerable mystery surrounds the muir
der. Mrs Gilfllan came from Bradford, ILL.,,
six weeks ago, and first entered the service
of Doc Wolverton, a farmer, residing near
Osceola, as a servant. Two weeks ago she
came to Osceola, and was engaged as a
waitress in Howe's hotel. While at Wolver-
tons she is said to have kept company with
Joe Wolverton, and he was the last person
seen with the murdered woman. She left
the hotel Saturday night, and her dead body
was found twenty-four hours afterward.
A warrant has been issued for Wolverton's
arrest, but he has disappeared. Mrs. Glfl-
Ian did not get along peaceably with her
husband and left him. 1t is understood di-
vorce proceedings were pending. What mo-
tive there was for the murder cannot be inn
agined. The rumor was circulated about Os-
ceola that Gilhllan had been seen in town,
but this is erroneous, as advices from Brad
ford locate him in that place

TRAGEDY IN AN IOWA TOWN.
Mrs. Robert Howard Meets Death
While out for Ride.


While out for u Ride.
MADRID, Ia, Dec 2S.-(Special Tele-
gram)-Last night occurred the death of
Mrs. Robert Howard who was thrown from
a buggy while out riding with John Slick,
liveryman, while Mr. Howard was at home
taking care of the children supposng his
wife was at church. She had gone for a
buggy ride with Slick. The accident hap
pened about . o'clock only short distance
from the Howard home and parties who
happened along soon after picked up the
unconscious woman and carried her to her
home. Drs. Moench and Gngsley were sent
for Immediately and did all they could for
Mrs. Howard, but she died in a few mo-
ments. An examination showed a deer
wound at the base of the brain and she
bled a great deal from the mouth and ears
There were no other marks on her.
Slick says they were out riding together
when the team became frightened and ran
away throwing them both out of the buggy
killing the woman but hurting him only
slightly 1t was noticed that his clothes
were somewhat torn. The doctor said the
wound in Mrs. Howard's head had been
caused by some sharp pointed instrument
Possibly one of the horses might have
kicked her and made the hole with the cork
of the shoe.
Mrs. Howard leaves husband and two
small children. Many of the citizens OF
Madrid are not satisfied with Sticks story
and expect startling developments at the
coroner's inquest, which is to be held this
evening. Some things look suspicious tc
those who have taken the pains to probe
into the case and the verdict of the jury
is awaited with a great deal of interest.

Tramp Narrowly Escapes nCing
Crushed To Death by Cars.
No. 3. the Chicago limited passenger
train on the Northwestern railway, which
reaches here at 2i5 p. m. came perilously
near killing an unknown tramp yesterday.
The train was approaching the Broadway
depot, and when -four blocks from the sta
,ion tramp who had been stealing a ride
on the trucks attempted to get of, As
he rolled out his clothing caught Ia some
way aud he was dragged along the rail on
the outside Of the track. The train was
going about ton miles an hour. The yells
Of the tramp attracted the attention OF the
trdinmeu and people on the streets. He
could not he seen from the coaches, but
whito-faccd people pointing at the bounding
object convinced the train crew that some
thing was wrong. The air brakes quickly
brought the train to a stop but 1t would
rot have been quick enough to have saved
the tramp had 1t not been for the presence
OF mind OF man named Racer. He was
standing by the side Of the track and just as
the tramp reached the point his head came
into contact with the earth and he was
rolled up into ball and In an instant more
would have been crushed beneath the
wheels. hut Racer seized him and dragged
him out of danger. cOmrade Of the tramp
crawled from another point of the train
at his juncture and ran to the assistance
~ ms lflend. lie placed MS arm around the
injured tramp and they went up Avenue d.
rhe tramp was staggering like a drunken
man, but his friend got him away before the
trainmen reached the point.
The matter was reported to the police
and a thorough search was made for the
Injured man. but without result. The anx-
ety of the men to leave the train created
I suspicion in the minds Of the police that
hey might have reason that would Justify
he terrible risk they had taken to avoid
being taken into the railway station.

VIII Make No Effort TO ConciIintc the
Gold Men.

DES MONIES, Dec. 2S.-(Speclal Tee-
gram.)-The democratic state committee and
numerous silver men are here for the con-
ference tomorrow, when new chairman will
be elected to succeed e. w. Curry, deceased.
There is little doubt that c. A. Walsh of
Ottumwa, secretary OF the national commit
tee will be elected state chairman. Secre-
tary Il. NJ. Carr and NJ f. Healy are also
candidates and among the older members of
the committee there has been an effort to
defeat Walsh on the ground that he is too
radical. The radicals. however are in the
ascendant and tho election of Walsh being
assured will probably be unanimous. The
leaders declare there is no disposition to
make any effort to conciliate the gold men,
none of whom have been invited to the con-
ference. 1t is expected to open headquarters
soon after the first OF the year in this city.

purpose of the temperance people to use all
available means to build up a sentiment op-
posing the possible adoption of a liberal
amendment to Iowas present prOhibitOry
liquor laws. an amendment that will permit
the manufacture of alcoholic liquors in the
state. The temperance people, recognizing
the existence Of a strong influence in all
parts of the state to secure such an amend
ment, If the subject is discussed at all in
the extra session of thelegislature this win
ter, feel that it is their duty to take action
TO create a counter sentiment The matter
was freely discussed at the union temper
lnce meeting. held at the Fifth Avenue
Methodist church last night. 1t was de-
clared to be the purpose Of the temperance
people to hold meetings all over the state and
build up a sentiment that will make it impcs-
sible for the members of the legislature to
vote for the liberal change in the law Ge-
manded by the advocates of the manlfac-
