wife and Fred Laue, and Theodore
Nelson, charged with the murder of
his father, were served upon them.
Nelson pleaded not guilty and Dins-

inc Nelson to ascertain whether or

State Ca pitaI Notes.

The Burlington railroad has filed an
answer to the complaint of John 0.
Yeiser asking for an order compelling
it to place a gate in the fence between
the Burlington and Union depots in
Omaha. The Burlington denies that it
caused the fence to be constructed and
therefore protests against the issuance
of the order asked for by Yeiser.
The suit of John o. Yeiser to COM
pei The city clerk of Omaha to submit
the initiative and referendum to the
vote of the people has been appealed to
the supreme court.
Auditor Cornell has issued a letter
to county clerks calling their atten-
ton to the necessity of assessing all
property belonging to insurance com
panies that may be found in their jur-
isdiction.
The annual meeting of the Central
Whist association will be held in Lin
