to the scene they found Miss Young on
the ground with a bullet wound in her
side. She was hurriedly taken to YER
million and then to Sioux City, whore an
operation was performed, which revealed
that the bullet had penetrated the intes-
tines. Miss Young died this morning.
At noon to-day, for the first time, the
students who saw the shooting told their
story. All agreed as to details.
They said the party had been shooting,
using a treeias a target, with a 80 calibre
revolver owned by Nee, Several shots
had been fred and it came Miss Lotze's
turn to try the pistol,
She fired twice and presumably thought
the cartridges had all been exploded. At
all events she turned coward Miss Young,
who was a few yards away picking violets,
and pulled the trigger.
Miss Young fell with a cry Of pain. She
tried to walk. but fell. and h she was
put on an improvised stretcher and carried
to the ferry.
When it was announced at noon that
Miss Young was dead there were few dry

crease in Insurance Rates.

CHICAGO. May San increase Of about
rs per cent. In fire insurance rates on the
GLASS known as hazardous risks will be
n Of the immediate results Of the San
Francisco catastrophe.
This increase was virtually decided on at
Q meeting In Chicago to-day OF the govern
Ing committee Of the Western Union, an
organization representing insurance COM
panies writing 90 per cent. OF the policies
In the States west and north Of Virginia and
east Of Colorado.
The committee at the same time prao-
tically decided to oppose the insurance
combine Of New York. which has proposed
to increase rates on all lines Of insurance
25 per cent. The action OF the Chicago
committee followed the advices from New
York that the Continental Company had
withdrawn from the New York Fire Insur-
ance Exchange.
It was the consensus of opinion that no
effort should be made by the Western men
to- put the San Francisco load ON patrons
whose properties are considered good risks
But all were practically decided that an
increase should be imposed on undesirable
and Improbable risks.
