MYSTERY In DEATH
MRS. OTTO YEAGER FOUND DEAD
IN HER BED YESTERDAY
MORNING.
AUTOPSY FAILS TO TELL WHY.
IAN ANALYSIS OF THE STOMACH
MAY THROW LIGHT ON THE
SUBJECT.
STORY OF THE wOMAN's HUSBAND.
She Has Been Complaining of 6
Pain in the Chest, but 1t Didn't
Cause Death.

Mrs. Otto Yeager, living with her
husband at ga Jackson street. was
found dead in bed yesterday morning,
having died suddenly during the night.
sNIr. Yeager slept beside his wife, but
knew nothing Of her death until. he
arose about o'clock to prepare his
team for his days labor as an express
man. His wife did not move when he
got up and thinking her asleep he went
to the barn, relying upon her to awake
and prepare breakfast before his re-
turn, as was her custom. Upon enter
ing the room half an hour later, Mr..
Yeager was surprised to find his wife
still in bed and spoke to her. Receiv-
ting no answer, he became alarmed,
and hurrying to the bedside found her
Still in death. She occupied a perfect
Iy natural position, and had evidently
died without a struggle.
Mr.. Yeager was stunned by his dis
lcovery for some time, but finally arOus-
ed his neighbors, who at once notified
Coroner Nelson Of the death. Coroner
Nelson viewed the body at o'clock
and ordered an autopsy held at the
undertaking rooms Of H. H. Schroeder,
is East Sixth street, at 4:30 p. m. 1t
was expected that the examination

WILL INCORPORATE SOON.
Big Beet Sugar Concern Nearly
Ready for Business

The Minnesota Beet Sugar Manufacturing
/ company will file articles of incorporation with
the secretary Of state within few days, and
it is probable that a factory will be built
between Minneapolis and St. Paul.
q The company is~-the fruit of the agitation
which has been going on in behalf Of the
beet sugar Industry The capital stock of the
company is $780, 900 in Fshares of $50 each The
incorporates are: Theodore F. Kock, St
Paul; John H. Smith, Detroit Mimi: Henry
Keller and r. J. O'COHRor of Sank Center.
1t is understood thatstwe Weal thy Chicagoans
are interested in the company, representing
the Chicago Wholesale Grocers' association
which is completely at the mercy of the
sugar trust and Seek some avenue of escape
A determined attempt will be made to Sc
cure the planting of enough seeds to Justify
the erection of one orstw factories this year
interested the farmers Throughout the state
in the project and 1t is claimed that most sat
lSfactory assurances of support and co-opera-
ton have been received.
The sympathy for the movement Is espe-
cialy warm at Hastings, which city has al
ready offered bonus for the erection of a
Factory there. From this 1t looks as though
the first factory, to cost $3.50 co., would be
located at that place
Senator Keller who has been particularly
active in behalf of the industry, presided at
a meeting yesterday in the senate chamber
The greatest enthusiasm was manifested in
the subject and steps were taken to foster the
planting of sugar beets in Minnesota Sew
eral thousand pamphlets have been printed
IN English, German and Scandinavian, under
the direction of Senator Keller, and they will
be distributed widely throughout the state
The meeting resulted in the formation OF
an association with the following officers:
President, Lieut.-GOv John L. Gibbs; vice
president Senator John H. Smith; secretary
and treasurer, Senator Henry Keller.

BrimhalI, Park Richie and Nelson, all
of whom were satisfied that cause of
death was not present, though a slight
ly congested condition of some of the
organs was found, which, however,
was thought to have ensued after
death. Coroner Nelson stated last
evening that an analysis Of the con-
tents of the stomach would be made
as soon as possible. In the meantime
the body of the dead woman was turn
ed over to the husband and will be
buried from the late residence tomor-
row afternoon at 2 o'clock.
According to Mr.. Yeager, his wife
died some time after l o'clock, as he
was awakened by hearing her moving
about the room at that hour and spoke
to her when she returned to bed. Re
calling this circumstance shortly after
finding her dead the husband searched
the house in an effort to ascertain
whether she had by mistake or design
taken any poisonous medicines or
drugs, but could find no trace OF any
thing of the kind. There had been
nothing of this nature kept about the
house and no recent purchases could be
discovered. ..s.s
"My wife had been complaining or
pain in her chest for several days,
said Mr.Yeager to a reporter for the
Globe, land Thursday she and L
went to stay at the home of my
brother-in -law, Albert Schroeder, 149
East Thirteenth street, so that she
could be relieved of the affairs Of
housekeeping and get rest. She went
to bed and remained there until Fri
day night, when she said she felt quite
we'll and insisted upon our returning
home for the night. This was about =
o'clock She was cheerful and ap-
peared much recovered. We retired
about 10 o'clock and a few minutes
after 1 o'clock 1 woke up by hearing u
door shut I found my wife was not
in bed. but a moment later she lay
down, replying to my question about
her condition that she "felt all right.
She went to sleep and nothing hap
pened to alarm me untilfI came back
from the barn after feeding my horses,
when she did not answer my CALI Then
shook her gently, and, becoming
alarmed, 1 placed my hand over her
nostrils, when I thought 1 felt a faint
breath. This may have been my i'm
agination, however, as her body was
almost cold.
In the face Of the cOroner's investi-
cations, L canot understand what could
have caused my wife's sudden death
I am positive that she would not take
her own life by secretly administering

anything Friday before leaving the
house, Mrs. Schroeder said that Mrs.
Fred Melers, who occupies a house in
the rear of SchrOeder's, had brought
a sick woman a cup of chocolate and
several slices of bread about o'clock.
Mrs. Yeager she said had drank nearly
all of the chocolate, but had eaten none
of the bread Mrs. Schroeder says she
drank the remainder Of the chocolate
herself before cleaning the cup to re-
turn to Mrs. Meyers. The rest of Fri
day and that part of Thursday, when
she had been at her house, Mrs. SchrOe-
der says her sister ate and drank very
little, and only that which she had
prepared for her.
Mr.. and Mrs. Yeager had been mar
ried but fifteen months. The dead
woman was tWenty-SiX years old, and
there are no children. She was for
merly Miss Louisa Phillipson, having
been raised in ST. Paul. Her parents
live at 591 East Fifth street. Yeager is

woman, with whom she was staying,
stated that she had found Mrs Yeager
in the hallway of her own house, Thurs
