HEART OF SUPREME
COURT DISCOVERED
DECIDE AGAINSTW0MAN with
RELUCTANCE"
Justice McKenna Declares That He
Would Have Reversed First
Order II the Law
Allowed

WASHINGTON, Nov 2.-The popu-
lar belief that the supreme court Is
without heart received a fatal blow
yesterday which was administered by
the court itself in an opinion in the
case of Sarah s. Fall VS.. Elizabeth
Eastin.
The case grew out of divorce pro-
ceedings in the state of Washington,
but was an effort to quiet title to a
piece of land which the Washington
courts sought to convey to Mrs. Fall,
who now is a resident of Nebraska.
The court could not give the land but
Justice McKenna, who delivered the
opinion, said in effect that 1t would do
so If the law did not stand in the way.
The divorce was granted to Mrs.
Fall in Kings county, Washington, In
1890. In the settlement order by the
court Mrs. Fall was awarded a tract
of land owned by Fall in Hamilton
county, Nebraska, and as Fail had
failed to make a deed in accord
ance with directions, commits
sioner of the Washington court per-
formed that service. In the meantime
Fall decided the property to his sister,
Mrs. Eastin.
The Nebraska supreme court decided
the case against Mrs. Fall. That de-
cision was yesterday affirmed by the
federal supreme court, although JUS
tice McKenna stated that the court had
reached its conclusion with reluctance

WOMAN MURDERED
AND BODY BURNED
ASHES FOUND PROVE TO BE
THOSE OF MRS. A. IANS0N
James Logan, Bachelor Farmer, for
Whom She Was at Work,
is Held for the
Crime

SPOKANE, Wash, Nov 2.-Further
details of the strange murder of a
woman and the burning of her body on
a log fire on Huckleberry mountain
near Cedonia, Wash, were received
here last night.
The woman, it appears, was Mrs. A.
Janson Of Chicago, who was engaged
as housekeeper a few months ago by
James Logan, bachelor farmer, whose
ranch is on the west slope of the noun
tain.
Logan is held for the murder on the
testimony of neighboring ranchers, and
the fact that he was last seen with the
woman. The most important testimony
comes from Don Taylor, rancher OF
the district. He declared that he met
Logan by the side of burning heap oi
logs and that they talked calmly about
a mule trade. In the ashes of this fire
hours later, three other rancherS
stumbled over the bones of Mrs
Janson.
p. C. McGrath, another of Logan's
neighbors, told the authorities that
Logan had said to him that he had
sold forty acres of his farm to Mrs
Janson for $1,000 and that she was about
to make a trip to Chicago to induce
settlers to come into the northwest
country.
