At the home Of W. c. McClenahan at

family roomed and boarded II was learned
that YOUNGER came to Council Bluffs about
two weeks ago from Joliet Ill, and that
his wife and children, the eldest girl
aged and the other a boy years OF age,
arrived a week later. From Mr.. McClena-
han It was learned that YOUNGER either
quit or was discharged from his job as
switch engineer in the local yards Of the
Great Western last Wednesday. wednes-
day night YOUNGER asked McClenahan to
go to Omaha with him as he wanted to
buy a revolver McClenahan did not go
but YOUNGER did and is supposed to have
Mr.. McClenahan and members Of his
family expressed the opinion that YOUNGER
was not in his right mind for several days
and believed that he was suffering from
religious mania, as he quoted repeatedly
from a Bible which he carried with him.
One member of the family expressed the
belief that YOUNGER had intended 20 shoot
his wife and children and then commit
suicide and that was his reason for taking
them down TO the lake and keeping them
there until late at night each day. This,
he said, he believed was the mans inten-
ton, but that evidently his nerve had
failed him each day at the last moment.
Coroner Examines Body.
Coroner Treynor assisted by Dr. d. Ma
craze, jr., and Dr. Waterman performed an
autopsy on the body of the dead man last
night. One bullet was found to have en-
tered the right arm near the shoulder and
come out at the elbow, fracturing the arm.
This is supposed to have been the bullet
from officer Woolmans first shot. which
shattered the stock of Youncers rife. A
second bullet and the one that caused
instant death had entered a few inches
behind the left shoulder and a little to
the side This had punctured the lung
and the main artery leading from the
heart and then dropped into the intestnes.
The physicians gave 1t as their opinion
that It would have been impossible for
Officer Woolman, who was facing YOUNGER,
to have fired the fatal shot and that it
must have been a shot from one of the
officers standing behind or at the side of
the man.
Coroner Treynor stated he would hold an
inquest today, probably, il the witnesses
can be got together, some time this morn
ing.
