The hopes of the army for suffl

when the house reconsidered its ac.
tion of last week and by vote OF al.
most two to one withdrew the in.
crease of 100000 then made. After
undergoing this and other amend.
ments, the army appropriation bill
was passed and consideration of the
agricultural appropriation bill begun.
Under license of debate on the latter
measure Mr.. Keifer made a speech in

Proposal TO the Missouri
Supreme Court.

Jefferson City, Mo-, Feb. 3.--Attor.
ney General Major has not decided
whether he will recommend to the su.

Of novel proposition which the Stan
dard Oil Co.. through it's attorneys,
filed with that tribunal yesterday.
The proposed procedure is said to be
without precedent.
II is proposed that in lieu OF the
custer decision against the company,
new Missouri corporation be formed
to succeed to the business of the
Standard Oil Company of Indiana in
this state. The stock of the new
company, less enough shares for the
qualification of directors, is to be is.

the state and the other by the com

preme court. These trustees are to
act as officers of the court and as
such control the stock OF the new
company. The stock of the Waters
Pierce oil Co.. now owned by the
Standard Oil Company OF New Jersey,
is TO be turned over TO the new com.
pany also.
Nothing Is said as TO the remission
OF $150,O00 in fines levied against the
Standard Oil Company of Indiana. the
Republic Oil Co. and the Waters
Pierce Oil Co. The supposition is that
the companies are willing to pay
these.

two and had stood outside while the
others went in. and corroborated

WAS MURDERED IN A CELLAR
Man Who Boarded at the Home Of the
Murdered Man ls Held by the
Police and Given the
"Third Degree"

Newark N. j., Feb. 3.-For ovei
Ave hours yesterday the police sub
jected Mrs. Mary Wilhelm to q
searching examination in an effort tc
obtain evidence that would lead to the
arrest OF the slayer of her husband
Frank Wilhelm, contractor and
justice Of the peace, who was found
dead in his cellar by his wife on Mon
day with a bullet hole in his fore
head.
The police are working on the
theory that Wilhelm was killed as the
result of plot.
The first development in the case
came when the police learned from
Mrs. Sarah Dillon Of New York. that
Nicholas Sicca, boarder at the VIII.
helm home, and Mrs. Wilhelm were
friendly and that the contractor had
threatened to sue for divorce and
name Sicca as correspondent. Sicca
was taken into custody by the police,
who later called upon Mrs. Wilhelm
to tell what she knew concerning the
case.
ANNOlulilB W bhC VOllIt Nlihs w IL
helm said that she had been friendly
with Sicca and that he promised to
marry her II Wilhelm obtained a di.
vorce. Her examination developed
that the property supposed to have
been owned by her husband stood In
her name. Mrs. Wilhelm said the
last time she saw her husband was in
New York on Sunday. Later she said
she saw him at her home Monday,
she thought
Sicca was given the "third degree"
by the police and said he was at the
Wilhelm home at o'clock Monday
and talked with Wilhelm and his wife
for few minutes, after which he left.
Between o'clock and o'clock, Sicca
stated, he called at several places,
but in every case he failed to find the
persons he sought. The physicians
state that Wilhelm was killed some
time after and before o'clock. The
police say that Sicca will be arraigned
to-day, when formal charges will be
preferred against him unless evidence
can be obtained to substantiate his
story of his whereabouts after leav-
ing the Wilhelm home.
