MURDERER TRIES SUICIDE.
Undertakes to Kill Himself at the
Grave Of His Victim.


Omaha, July iA,--William Michael
zeller supplied a horrible elimination
to the brutal double murder OF his
wife and her father on Saturday by
appearing Unexpectedly In the midst Of
the mourners at the funeral this after
noon and slashing himself twice across
the body. disemboweling himself.
A large posse OF deputy sherifs and
police officers. assisted by scores Of
neighbors and friends of the murdered
pair. had been hunting the adjacent
woods and fields for miles around for
more than two days, Many OF these
men had temporarily abandoned the
search in order TO be present at the
funeral ceremony.
suddenly during the services Zelier
emerged from thicket ON the ceme-
terry grounds and attracted the atten-
tion OF the mourners. He was still
armed with the knife with which he
had committed the murders. Those at
the grave We're dazed at sight OF the
man. Before they had time to cry out
or run he drew the knife twice across
his abdomen and fell to the ground.
City Physician Ralph. who happened
to be near by snatched the knife from
his hands and prevented him harming
himself further. But the wounds were
serious enough. DIR. Ralph said. to cause
the mans death.
Zeller was carried into his own home.
only stones throw from the scene,
placed In comfortable position and
left in charge Of a police officer.
TO the officers Zeller was able TO
say a few words before he sank into
an unconscious condition. II was gath
cred from his fragmentary sentences
that he had lain out In the high brush
between his house and the cemetery
during the entire time the posse was
searching for him. and he said that
several officers passed within six feet
Of him.
What was the cause of the trag-
edy?" zeller was asked.
MY sons abused me and my wife
took their part" he said. 1T had been
going on for years. It hurts me to
talk"
He afterward explained that II was
because he was desperate to get a
drink Of water and something to eat
that he came out Of his hiding place
Zeller is a market gardener, who had
always borne good reputation until
Saturday morning when he stabbed
his wife to death and then killed his
father-in-law. J. r. Burkamp, SO years
OF age, who had run to his daughters
assistance. Both OF his victims died
a few minutes. and Zeller then en-
tered his dwelling, wiped the blood on
the knife and struck out across a corn
field. That was the last seen of him
until his dramatic temperance this
afternoon.

comforting upon him the greatest honor that could
possibly be conferred upon anyone, except alone his
election to the office for which he was nominated
According to census figures, there are in the
United States S,sS3,994 negroes For many, many
years the colored people of the country have been
contending for more recognition and generally have
deplored their lowly lot. They have speculated
upon what would transpire when ga coon sits in
the presidential chair and finally, it would appear,
have undertaken to realize this ambition.
William p Scott is held up as the choice of the
S,S33994 negroes of the nation for the presidency,
He was chosen after mature deiberation by an
aggregation Of fellowdarkies, and it is only fair
to presume all were attred in raglans. Just as
the republicans and democrats named their candi-
dates for president, also did the negroes choose
their standard-bearer
And now the Scott nigger has broken into Jail
In dispatch appearing in yesterdays Astorian
from East st. Louis the information is conveyed
that Presidential Candidate Scott was recently con-
victed of conducting disorderly saloon whereupon
he was fined, fine and costs totaling $149 He paid
$50 on account and was given until Wednesday to
come through with the balance. Being still de-
linquent, he was jailed
Perhaps most of we white folks do not under
stand negros idea of presidential candidate but
it does seem the darkies might have hit upon some
better qualified candidate than saloon keeper who
had been fined for conducting disorderly joint
Perhaps his incarceration may help his candidacy,
but it should not be without lesson to other colored
persons. This thing of being great is not so much
of joke, after all.

sTEAM-RA1LwAY CONSTRUCTION.

While there has been some falling off in steam
first six months of the present year, as compared
with the corresponding months Of 1908, it is quite
possible to attach too much Importance to the fact
Since January l, nearly 1900 miles of new rail-
road lines have been built in this country. This is
lat the rate Of 1900 miles for full year, or about
800 less miles than were built in the calendar year
of 1903 The latter year, however, was one of ex-
ceptional activity in railway construction. More
mileage was added to our railway system in that
year than has been added in any year since 1888,
when the increase amounted to $500 miles The
years Of 1899 and 1900 were years of great business
prosperity in the United States but in 1899 only
4,00S miles of new railroad lines were constructed
while in 1900 only trife over $500 were con-
Istructed.
1t should be superhuous to say that steam rail
road development has reached point in this country
at which railway construction viii probably proceed
at slower pace than it did two, three and four
decades ago. Most of the older states are now COW
cred with network of railroad lines and this is
fast becoming the case in some of the newer states
and territories OF the 1000 miles Of new lines
that have been constructed during the present year.
less than 400 miles are situated in the states east
Of the Mississippi and north Of the Ohio, while
nearly 250 miles are situated in the region west Of
the Father of Waters There has been practically
no addition to New England lines during 1904.
Undoubtedly one great contributing agency to
this slackening in steam railway building is the
rapid extension Of electric railroad lines. These
lines are rendering unnecessary and improbable, in
many instances the construction Of short steam rail-
road lines particularly for passenger traffic. They
cutting, in nearly every direction, into the local
traffic Of the steam roads and causing the latter to
depend more largely on long-haul traffic for rev.
enue.
The abatement in steam railway building Of late
is probably due in some measure, Of course, to an
abatement in general business activity but the full
significance of it will not be grasped until the fact
is taken into consideration that much of our country
is pretty well supplied with that sort Of trans
portaton service and that the electric lines are oc-
cupying field that otherwise would be occupied by
steam roads,

viii Organize a League.

The truck growers of South Mis-
slassippi have started movement to
organize themselves into Truck
Growers League, TO promote truck
farming and unity the interests Of
the growers of fruits and vegetables.
The truck growing interests have in
creased so rapidly in the piney woods
section of the State during the past
few years that local truck growers
associations have been organized in
almost every community. 1t is now
proposed to organize a Southern
Truck Growers League. A man
will be placed at the head of this
league and paid on a commission
basis. 1t will be his duty to consign
shipments to the best possible mar
kct, and to convey them to honest
and reputable commission houses
and to secure prompt settlements
for goods delivered. The objects of
the league will be to diversity crops,
classify the products, the best ways
and means of packing and shipping,

LIMITATION OF WAR AREA
Confirmation of Russia and frances
Approval of Hays Note.
Belief That the Accord Will Prove
of InesttmnbIc Benefit In Linz
fling the Conflict.

Paris, Feb l6-The foreign Office
confirmed the announcements made In
these dispatches, Saturday, that Rus
sia and France approve of the United
States note on the subject of Chinese
neutrality with q reservation eXclud-
ing Manchuria.
The success of the American initi-
ative TO secure the naturalization OF
China and the limitation Of the area
of operations continues to absorb Of
fetal and diplomatic attention, the re-
suits effected being considered para
mount to the actual war operations, 1t
is said that the second American note
and the various replies will constitute
an accord of the powers, without sign
ing further agreement.
The American officials here expect
Russia to issue a declaration similar
to that of Japan, favoring the prin-
ciples of the accord, but the French
foreign Office understands that Rus
sia's brief approval already given con-
stitutes Russia's response.
The general view. including that Of
the American officials, Is that the ac-
cord will prove of inestimable benefit
in limiting the conflict strictly to Rus
sia and Japan, thus keeping out Great
Britain, France. China and all other
powers, and also circumscribing the
zone of the conflict This view, how
ever, Is not universally accepted, GER
tain high quarters holding that Rus
sia secures real benefits from the ac-
cord, by the indirect admission of the
powers, for the first time, that Man
churia is to be treated differently from
the rest of China, The hlerican an
swer to this is that ManchUria is ex-
cluded from The accord merely because
actual war operations are proceeding
there, but there is reason to believe
that Russia attaches much Importance
to the powers excepting Manchuria
from the accord dealing with China
The only advices received here con-
cerning the operations in the field show
gradual concentration of Russian and
Japanese troops near the Yalu river.
