AFTER Nf|GfNf|ND
Pursuit Of Pierce County Muir.
derer is Relentless
Is TRACED BY OFFICIALS
County Attorney HAS Reports Of Ills
Whereabouts Pursuers Only -Four
Hours Behind-County and state
n Reward for Capture

A Pierce, Neb.. Sept. Is. special says:
County Attorney Barnhart, who is di-
recting the pursuit Of Neigenfnd, the
Pierce county murderer. has two clues
as to his whereabouts. 1t was reported
this morning that two travelling men
saw a man answering his description
last Friday between Crofton and Hart
ington. Another report was received
this morning from Constable G.. w.
Con and Detective Franklin. who are
at Stanton. They say that a man told
them that he was acquainted with
Niegenind and that on Saturday
Niegenfind rode with him nearly to
Pilger. The nan did not know that
Niegenfind was charged with murder.
Constable Goff thinks they are about
four hours behind the murderer.
Henry Carsten, a German farmer. a
bachelor. living about four miles
southeast of where the murder was
committed says hat Niegcnfind stayed
with him all night after the murder
was committed. All he said was that
he and Breyer had had a fight and
that maybe he had killed Breyer. A
wagon went past the house that night
and N~iengenfind rose up in bed and
cooked his revolver and said II the
sherin came after him he would shoot
him; that If he were surrounded by
many men he would kill himself. Car
stem said Niegenfind was prepared to
go any time. as he did not take off his
clothing when he retired.
Niegenfind rode with him with a
load of hogs until within one mile of
Winside, when he left. going south.
Carsten went to Winside with another
load of hogs the next day, but heard
nothing of the murder until on the
road home. He was informed OF il.
but refused to believe It until he asked
his neighbor. August Koerting, who
told him 1t was the truth.
The county commissioners held a
meeting today and offered a reward
of $500 for the capture of N%iegenfind.
Late Monday evening Governor Saw
age issued a proclamation Offering a
state reward of 5000 for the capture
and conviction of Niegenfind. This
amount Is the maximum allowed un-
der the state law.

PsHiSAED FROM FLAMES
1lothine Harmed FROM Hody. aud The
cry PREVAILS Tha Clothing Had
Caught rire while the Woman
w.s Aione-other News

About moor Saturday the dead body
OF Mrs. Ruth Fornell vas found lying
In the yard by her mother. Mrs. Bur-
nett, at the latter $ home near
Steinauer. Neb. The dead woman's
clothing had been burned completely
on and her death is regarded as a re-
suit OF the burns. The two women
had been together during the morning
hours. The interior of the house in
dicated that a struggle had occurred
there. Several locks On doors had been
broken off and the furniture was
thrown about in confusion. Mrs. Bur-
nett was not absent from the house
long. having gone into the field. Mrs.
Fornell had been married. but was
not living with her husband. She vas
abou twenty-one year old. The place
OF the mysterious occurrence Is about
one and one-half miles from Stcinauer.
Mrs. Fornell was once married to
John +. Fornell of Hebron. Since their
separation the dead woman has been
livingw it'll her mother and brother. II
appears that the two latter had gone
up town. II is o believed that the
place was visited by tramps and find
ing the woman alone made demands
on her which she refused and then
sought revenge. When her relatives
returned home they found one door
broken open. II is claimed she had
been assaulted and 1t is believed her
assailants, after killing her, dragged
her to the barnyard and set fire to her
clothing.
One theory is that her clothing had
caught fire from the stove Will" no one
was near to help her. and that she had
reached the yard before being over
come. The %coroner's jury gave a ver-
dict in accordance with this theory.
She was about twenty-one years old
and leaves a husband and mother.

Union Pacific Seeks to Restrain striking
Mechanics
An Omaha. Neb.. Sept. 16, dispatch
Gays. Judge Mcpherson of the federal
court yesterday morning granted a
temporary restraining order against
the Union Pacific striking m%achinists,
which prevents them from interfering
with or in%tiinidating or in any other
way. either through the posting OF
pickets or r~atroling of the streets adj
joining the company's property, inter-
moddling with the men employed by or
desiring to enter the employment of
the Union Pacific.
The order was issued by Judge Nc
Pherson, in the absence Of Judge Mum
ger. who is in Minnesota. The order Is
directed against a large number Of
strikers. and the United States mar
shal's Office was very busy all after
loon serving copies Of the order upon
the men. It is very sweeping in its
terms. and aim to break up the sys-
TEN of picketing that so far has been
the chief source OF strength to the
strikers. The strikers are divided off
llllo NoIuId.lltS, "lItn Wolh 'lbit
hours and patrol all points where
strike-breakers or %non-union men
may be landed. They use no physical
violence, hut quietly endeavor to per-
suade the men not to enter the employ
of the road. II is asserted that in
some instances these requests. have
been reinforced with sly hints and mods
that indicate that trouble may be
brewing for the fellows who persist in
going to work anyway.
No specific date has been set for the
hearing. but 1t Is not likely to be called
into question until some one disobeyes
the commands OF the courts.
The injunction served upon the
Union Pacific strikers at Omaha and
the cOroner's inquest in the case of
Earl Caldwell, the dead strike-breaker,
received due attention Monday after
noon. George Mulberry. third vice.
president of the international machin-
lists union. announced that the injunc-
ton so far as 1t relates to taking
pickets off duty would not be obcyed,
but 10 far as II relates to acts of vio-
lence II would be obeyed. II the pick
cts go on duty about the shops a riot
and ~bloodshed is looked for.

Lawrence Stull and allowing IL to run
at large.
The members Of st. Andrews Catho-
lie church of Tecumseh. Neb., will soon

The constant confusion Of the name
OF Minneapolis, Kan, with Minneapo-
lis, Mimi. has caused u sentiment for a
change OF name. A. y. Riddle say
that 1t makes delays in mail. freight
and express and is annoying in many
ways. He proposes a public meeting
to begin a movement for SELECTING a
distinctive name for the town.
The jury. after being out eighteen
hours. decided that Mrs. Jennie Ed
wards was not guilty of beating and
kicking her foster daughter, Viola

Her husband stood by her. There was
no direct evidence as to who killed the
child.

LEADS ALL STATES
State of Nebraska StiII ut the Head In
Intelligent

state OF Nebraska still ut the Head In
Intelligent,
Every ten years the census reports
give the number of persons able to
g and write in any language. These
figures throw light upon the extent to
which the rudiments of education are
being acquired and also upon the work
ing OF school systems. A large amount
of illiteracy among adults indicates
that they were reared under an imper-
feet system of schools. But neither H.
literacy among emigrants nor Hitter
acy among elder natives of the coun-
try is any index of the present condi-
ton of American schools.
Probably the most light upon the
working of a school system is shown
by the per zen of children between
ten and fourteen years Of & who are
able to read and write. The statement
prepared at the census office shows the
percentage of persons in the several
states between the ages of ten and
fourteen years who were reported az
able to read and write in 1900.
Nebraska enjoys the distinction OF
heading the list. closely pressed by
Iowa, and Illinois Is fifteenth, below
nearly all the other western n north
ern states. In 1890 Iowa headed the
list. with a percentage of 1929, Illinois
being then sixth, with a percentage of
only 9S. rs.
In every state and territory, except
Arizona and Nevada, the percentage
of children ten to fourteen years of
age able to read and write has mate
rally increased during the last decade,
indicating. therefore. an Improvement
in the efficiency in the school system.
Even the two exceptions named are
more aDparent than real.

FOREST FIRES FURIOUS
Making apid IIeadway and Danger to
Life aud Property Continues

Life aud Property Continues
A Tacoma. Wash. Sept. IS, dispatch
says: The forest fires in northwestern
Oregon and southern Oregon continue
with unparalleled fury. The confa-
g%rations have made Roadway with
amazing rapidity. While it is believed
they cannot further imperil the larger
cities. the danger to property in the
outlying districts continues. The de-
struction OF telegraph and telephone
lines renders it difficult to obtain a
correct estimate of the loss Of life.
From the scant reports obtained 1t Is
though that not less than 100 persons
are dead. The greatest loss OF life ap-
pears to be along the Lewis river in
Washington. where logging camps are
numerous. Many persons are known to
have persisted in that section. Hun
dreds OF T. esidepts of northwestern
Oregon are homeless. The property
loss in that state exceeds a million.
The first reports of the destruction Of
Palmer have been confirmed. The en-
tire pace is in ashes. The thrilling
hight Of a party of refugees from
Whites mill. near Centralia. who were
compelled to seek safety in a creek,
remaining immersed more than an
hour, later rushing to a grotto, where
a number of bears and deer sought
refurc in their terror, Is only equaled
by the narrowing experience of peo-
pie residing between Ariel, Cowlitz
county, and Mt. Helena. They fed in
their night garments. SO rapidly did
the flames approach, and the race was
kept up for hours, when it was found
eleven of the party had persisted. 1t
Is feared that 4 party of sixty camp
ers at the foot of Mt. Helena are among
the dead.

Erowns on Grain Corners

Corners in grain are forever rendered
practically impossible by a decision
handed down by Judge Chytraus in the
circuit court at Chicago, II sustained
by a higher court.
The case was for an injunction asked
by Waite, Thornburn 4 Co, against
prominent commission houses in the
recent July oats corner,
The most important ruling is that
the Chicago board of trade loses the
power to pass on property rights where
margins are involved, denying it's au-
thority to discipline members for re-
tusing to put up called margins.
