MRS. GIBSON is IDENTIFIED
brother who Lives in YRnktOn
Arrives and VIII rake Body
Home for Burial.

The mystery surrounding the death Of
Mrs l.. b. Gibson. who died at the Her
Grand hoteR a week ago as the result Of
acute stomach trouble, according to the
post-mortem examination by DR.. H. A.
Waggener, house physician at the Her
Grand. was definitely cleared up yesterday
afternoon, when a brother of the dead
woman, b. Learing OF Yankton, S D., ar
rived in the city and identified the body OF
his sister
1t was an incident full of pathos which
marked the elimination of the search for
the relatives of the dead woman when
the young brother appeared at the bier
of his sister, and there was at least three
men who were in the place at the time
whose handkerchiefs went to their eyes
as he bent over the dead body and wept.
The young man is but 20 years of age and
is carpenter by trade.
He says that his sister left home for the
first time about five years ago but 1t was
customary for her to pay a visit TO the
home in YRnkton at least once a year. She
was at home the last time about four
months ago and remained for about six
weeks, when she left for Chicago to ac-
cept a position as saleswoman for a man
ufacturing house in that city. About eight
weeks ago, he says, their mother received
a letter from her saying that she was sick
in Chicago and asked for S25. which was
promptly sent. They later received an
other letter saying that she was well, but
that is the last heard of her. He knew
nothing of her life in Lincoln.
Mr.. Learing states that he knew nothing
of her marriage to Gibson, but is positive
his sister would not think of committing
suicide.
"A letter has been sent by Rev. Father
Kearns of st. Philomenas church, who was
at the bedside of Mrs. Gibson when she
died, to the parish priest in Yankton, stat
ing that Mrs. Gibson received the last
sacrament of the church. and the burial
will take place in the Catholic cemetery.
The body will be sent to Yankton this
evening.
Mrs. Gibson's father is dead, but her
mother and brother live by themselves i'm
Yankton. There is no other member Of
the immediate family living.
Her maiden name was Catherine Learing
and she worked for two years at the Gar
retson hotel in Sioux City as a waitress
and later was employed in the same ca
pacity at the Union hotel in Lemars, Ia

CATTLEMEN SEE WILSON
Live stock shippers Urge Modification
of Recent order Regulating
Feeding EnrOute.

CHICAGO, Aug. 15.-Secretary of Agri-
culture Wilson held a conference today
with about fifty cattlemen at the Stockyards
exchange on the subject of live stock
transportation. The cattlemen made 1t
plain to the secretary that they were op-
posed to the law which requires shippers
to feed and rest cattle every twenty-four
hours on the journey east They wanted
1t extended to thrty-six hours.
The ranchmen argued that it distresses
cattle more and does them more harm
to take them from the cars every twenty
four hours, prodding them with poles and
banging them against the sides of the
doors and cattle pen chutes than it does
TO allow them to remain in a car for a
day and half
Secretary Wilson told the stockmen, who
were from Texas, Colorado Idaho, Mon
tana, Iowa and other cattle states, that he
could not change the law, but he agreed
to modify the order, which now limits the
number Of cattle in cars when they are
fed enroute
'As to feeding the cattle on the cars"
said Secretary Wilson, there are not
enough of the right kind OF cars to make
that general. The stockmen represented
today that the recent order limiting the
-'NA'A'SA "a S'N'i' III Nfhl > NiiAA are 80 ar
ranged that feeding is possible was a
hardship, and agreed to modify it,"
The railroads also contend that unloading
once every thirty-six hours is often enough
and committee of operating and traffic
men was appointed to Join with cattle
shippers in presenting that matter to Sec
retary Wilson. The government, at the
instigat.on Of the secretary, has filed 200
suits against railroads for violation of the
statute and the railroads are anxious to
have the whole matter settled on condition
that they live up to the law In the future.
He will give an answer to the committee

who stand in the favor Of the King
Of the Pollywogs. These people have
caught on to me pretty well, and no
matter what l do now they begin to
suspect that it is going to turn out
to be joke on them. and they are
suspicious of my every action.
Some Of the people heard about The
automobiles that we have running
around In Washington, and they deter
mined to have one of the machines
themselves. So they fixed up fine
four-seated vehicle and took me to
see it. When I asked them what was
the name Of it they looked at me IN a
sort of funny way, and said it was a
new invention called Billymust-
pullit."
Well, it didn't take me but a min
ute to see through that joke, but

and / said thought it would be fine.
Everybody got ready and then a
crowd Of the old Pollywogs whom
had played lots of jokes on got to-
gether and looked at me in great glee
as they said: You, Billy, have got
to be the horse"
I agreed cheerfully, and when
everybody had taken their seats and
looked pretty much as If they were
going to have all the fun to them
selves I started off. Down the main
street I went like a streak Of light
ming, all around the highways and
byways with the rafting "Billymust-

they were getting up fine joke OF
