Indication That tho Vote Will Be
Chicago Situation.
Chicago. April Municipal elec-
tons are being held thruout the state
today. The weather is generally cold
and cloudy. Early reports show a
rather light vote was cast. Little inter-
est is being manifested, as the issues
are local and party lines generally dis
regarded. In Chicago the most interest
is centered in the aldermanic contest in
the First ward, which includes the ten
derloin districts, between John Bath
ouse" Coughlin, present incumbent, and
David L. Frank, republican, and who
has the endorsement of all the reform
organizations. Among the watchers at
the polls in the First ward were eighty
or more college athletes chosen by the
Municipal Voters League to head off
any attempts at illegal tactics. Besides
the vote for aldermen, the citizens are
balloting for or against the abolish
ment of township governments within
the city. A separate ballot providing
for the expressing of opinion regarding
municipal ownership Of public utilities
and the nomination of party candidates
by direct vote Is also being cast.

Danish Farm Hand Ends His Life With
Carbolic Acid.

Honey Creek, Ia, April Peter
Dyhr, a Danish farm hand. who has
been taking care of the stock on the
farm of Peter Larson, who with his
family is in Oklahoma holding down
a claim, committed suicide sometime
between Friday afternoon and Sunday
night at o'clock by taking carbolic

Near neighbors noticed there was no
sign of life on, the place Sunday and
when investigation was made he was
found in bed in the house, sound In the
sleep that knows no waking. 1nves-
tigation showed small bottle OF carr
bolic acid sitting near a bottle OF
whisky, and further Investigation
showed that his mouth was badly
blistered with the acid.
i Dyhr was about 35 years old and was
considered good citizen when not
under the influence of liquor, which had
the effect of separating him and his
wife, who had since married and is
now living in Council Bluffs with her
second husband. He has one child, a
son, years old, who is being raised by

A Revolving CRIME
Principal Witness in the Larsen
Murder Case On Stand
Today.
Details Of the Murder Causes a
Great Sensation in
Court.
Brutal Crime Of a Negro in Phil.

the Day.

Chicago, April Robert Keissig.
whose accusation brought about the ar
rest of Louis E. Toombs for murder OF
Carrie Larson last winter, was placed
on the witness stand today. The court
room was crowded with people who
come to hear the details OF the most
revolving crime in the history Of Chs
cago. Keissig said Toombs had gone to
an employment agency and having met
Carrie Larson, promised her work as
assistant cook on the boat Peerless,
then lying here fast in the ice. Keissig,
who is nineteen years old, averred that
on the night Of the murder he was ly-
ing in his bunk on the boat. That
Toombs was undressed and also lying
down and that Carrie Larson was In
her state room. In order to get her out,
he said, Toombs ordered her out to
cook his supper. She left her room
only to be attacked by Toombs. He as
saulted her and so franticaly did she
battle that in doing 80 Toombs choked
her to death. Toombs laid down for
awhile, leaving the body stretched on
the cabin floor. What happened after
Toombs again rose is not printable. The
witness shuddered as he told the story
and there were many averted heads In
the court room. Attorney Barnes said
this was the first time In the history of
of Chicago that t.such charge was ut
tered against an alleged murderer.
Witness declared Toombs tied rope
around the body. weighted 1t and then
ordered Keissig to help him carry it to
a hole in the Ice near the boat. This
was done. Keissig said for some days
afterwards he was afraid to speak,
fearing Toombs would kill him.

The Senate.

Washington. April. 1.-At the conclu-
sion Of routine business the senate re-
sumed consideration of the oleomar-
garine bill. The debate today was
opened by Heitfeld, Of Idaho, in oppo-
sition to the measure, the real intent
Of which, he said, was to destroy the
oleonargarine industry.
Being a farmer himself. he said, his
eympathies naturally were with the
dairy interests, but he realized that all
his constituents were not farmers and
he felt 1t only just that he should pre-
sent the facts. He did not believe oleo-
margarine ever would displace butter
IN the market, as those who could af-
ford 1t always would purchase butter,
hut he charged. Notwithstanding that
fact, that an effort was being made to
drive the oleomargarine industry out.
He strongly advocated the enactment
Of the substitute offered by the minori-
ty, maintaining that 1t would eliminate
absolutely all possibility of fraud of
eIeomargarine. Gallinger declared the

PENSION suREAu SCORED.

Outlines Pension Report.

Commander Torrance OF the q. a. X.
Outlines Pension Report.
Minneapolis, April 1.--Judge Ell Tor
rance, commander chief of the G. A.
r., just back from conference with
the president on pension matters, says
the repor. of the G. A. r. pension COM
mittee was submitted to the president
over a week ago. AT his request, how
ever, it will not be made public for
some little time. as the president has
under consideration the selection of a
successor to Pension Commissioner
Evans. Judge Torrance, discussing the
report, said:
"The committee found no fault with
the pension laws as they now exist, but
rather with the manner In which the
laws have been construed and admins
tered by the pension bureau. desire
for change in the Office of commits
sioner of pensions has been steadily
growing for two years past, until now
it is almost universal among the vet
erans Conservative Grand Army men
believe, and with. good cause. that
great injustice has been done to many
deserving and worthy claimants.
tllS SSlCldA oOlNiSA5 . Va liz SAAAoAA
desire Isl that the laws be justly and
fairly administered, and that all who
are entitled to receive their benefits
shall enjoy them without diminution
or unreasonable delays, and that every
unworthy claim shall be rejected, and
every fraudulent pensioner stricken
from the rolls. The atmosphere of the
pension bureau has been such as to
create an impression that great many
frauds IRE attempted by the old soldiers
but 1t ils worthy of note that, according
to the last report of the commissioner,
there were, out of 159 persons convicted
OF frauds against the bureau last year,
but ten soldiers of the civil war, of
whom two were deserters. Many con-
viction,, were for offenses against the
old soldier, and not for him. The rec
ords show that only one old soldier out
OF $4,000 has been convicted Of fraud
against. the government. Certainly that
is wonderfully good showing.
incidentally. Judge Torrance denied
that he was to be made pesion commits
sioner, nor was he candidate for that
or any other office.
