M'FARLAND's DEATH MYSTERY
Mother at Cedar Falls Knows of No
Circumstance WRrrantlnE
His Action.

CEDAR FALLS, Ia. Oct. 26.-(special)-
The news that 8. c. Mcfarland had COM
mitted suicide while on a German train
and near his home in Berlin, was received
with universal sorrow and surprise here.
His mother, Mrs. Peter Melendy, and sister.
Mrs. Marion Mcfarland Walker, are re-
sidents of Cedar Falls and upon them the
shock has fallen with heavy weight In
Cedar Falls Mcfarland learned the printers
trade while engaged as "devil'' In the
office of the Cedar Falls Gazette. His
excellent education, brilliant mind and am
bilious nature fitted him for the continued
successes which attended his career. From
Cedar Falls he went to Des Moines to be
employed upon the Des Moines Capital and
from there to Marshalltown where he be-
came owner. publisher and editor of the
Msrehantown TlInes-Repubiicgn
In his letter to his mother. written on
board the steamship that carried him
again to duty, ne said that he had purposely
taken a slow vessel that he might have
time TO formulate his course of action In
his new career and was full of hope in his
ability to carry on the work. He had en-
Joyed an unusually happy time in Wash
ington and had received his new orders
with enthusiasm and a determination to
carry on the work to the best of his abil-
ity, at least that was the purport of his
letter to his mother in whom he proposed
his greatest confidence.

SPOKANE TAKES OMAHA PLAN
VIII illuminate streets During Expo
sItiOn Like Gate City Does in
Ak-Sar-Ben Festival.

SPOKANE WASH, oct. es-(Specia)-s.
p Brown formerly grain dealer at Omaha,
who came to Spokane to engage in business
and make his home here said in an inter
view that electric light street illumination
has done more to make Omaha known and
bring people 10 II than any other one thing
He added:
THE proposition that has been taken up
by the 10000 club OF Spokane for illumi-
mating the streets with festoons OF incan-
descent lights during the Alaska Yukon
Pacific exposition next summer is similar
TO the scheme which is used in Omaha dur
Ing the Ak-Ssr-Beh carnlvals and during
conventions there. The plan followed in
Omaha was the illumination Of Sixteenth
and Fsrnam streets, the two principal
thoroushfares making a cross extending
several blocks in each direction. The street
illumination is something that benefits the
entire city and not merely the merch ants.
1t is not thing hat attracts the people
in itself but It is certainly the most ef-
feotive means of making people remember
visit to the city, that has been tried in
Omaha"

CASTRO ASKS TO NEGOTIATE

I'm Reply TO Second Note of
Netherlands.

CARACAS, Venezuela. Tuesday, oct 2O-
Via Willemstad, Curacao. Oct. 26.-Presi-
dent Castro in his answer to the second
Netherlands note has declined to revoke
his decree Of May IA prohibiting the trans
shipment of goods for Venezuelan ports at
Curacao, which has been so obnoxious to
the people OF that island. This answer was
made September IL. The president ex-
presses surprise that The Netherlands gov
ernment should ask for the revocation of
this decree after acknowledging Venezuels's s
right to issue It, Continuing, he asks The
Netherlands to send a confidential agent to
Caracas to arrange the terms OF an ami
cable settlement of the difficulties between
the two governments.
The chief Of the artillery branch of the
Venezuelan army has completed the prep
aratons for the defense of la Guaiara.
In anticipation of a naval demonstration
by Holland before that port on November
/ shells have been distributed to all the
modern guns installed in the forts on the
mountainside above La Guaiara.
President Castros health Is still delicate
and causes anxiety TO his friends.

CORN SHOW GETS Low RATES
Secures Fare of One and 0ne'Third
for Round Trip.
GIVES OUT NOTICE
Corn show Managers Understand that
This Means the Action of the
Western Passenger Assoc
tiOn Lines.

The National Corn exposition, which
opens in Omaha December 8, will be able
to offer to its patrons a round-trip fare
of one and one-third.
This concession has been made, 1t is un-
derstood. by all the Western Passenger
association railroads. The Milwaukee road
has positively announced It. Yesterday
General Passenser ks-ht Miller wired rom
Chicago to the office fR Omaha: y
"Our rate for the corn show will be one
and one-thlrd fare for the round trip.
Limit about as requested by the corn show
people"
1t is believed this notification Of Mr.
Millers reflects the action of all the roads
and is but the forerunner of similar an
nouncements by the others.
The news is received by the corn show
managers with much qualification Last
week c. c. Rosewater, ]. Wilkes Jones of
the exposition and ]. e. Buckingham, as
sistant general passenger agent of the
Burlington. went to Chicago and had con-
fcrenccs with the passenger representatives
o fthe roads on this subject and received
favorable consideration. Messrs. Rosewater
and Jones laid great stress upon the inn
portance Of securing favorable rates and
were accorded the most encouraging re-
OHpllon' IN iact' they came back TO Ornaha
believing that they would certainly get the
rates So. while the announcement of tho
Milwaukee comes a day earlier than was
expected. the corn show managers are
elated. They count this one OF the really
large agencies that will count in the re-
suits of the exposition. Without reduced
passenger fares It is admitted the exposi-
tion would lack one of the most important
elements of success
These rates, spread out In blanket fash
ion over the vast territory covered by the
Western Passenger association roads. will
apply TO millions of persons and cover the
corn belt thoroughly.
