Mrs. Martlatti is a poor Italian woman,
who has five children, all under Is years
of age. She has been in America but Il
short time, and at last she has reached
Omaha, her longedfor destination. Now
that she is here, she cannot find a place
TO work, as she had hoped, ana she IL
very much discouraged.
She had tried 10 get work in New York,
while she stayed there with her relatives,
and not succeeding, they told her, by way
of radiance, that working people were so
scarce In the west that she could get
work in which she was not experienced
by just asking.
one night as she lay awake thinking
about what she should do to get work, she
heard someone talking in the next room.
She listened and heard the following con-
versatlon:
"oh, Mabel, did you say you wanted

WHITE MAN FOUND
FLOATING IN RIVER
Nothing oFund About Body
Or in Pockets to
Identify Remains.

The body OF a white man about forty
years old, dressed in ordinary clothing
and badly decomposed, was picked out
OF the river by the police Of the Harbor
precinct this morning. There was moth
ing about the body which could Identify
IT. They have no record of any man
answering the general description of
the ono found, as missing.
The body was first seen floating by
the captain Of a passing tug, who noti-
fed the police. The man was about
) feet 10 inches tail and was attired in
the ordinary dress OF a working man.
The clothes In many places were
patched. and their general appearance
indicated that the owner was not IN
especially good circumstances. There
was n, money on the body
The police stated that tn ebOdy had
been IN the water at least a month
Although they are looking for two men
who are supposed to have drowned In

body found today does not tally at all

TEA AND COFFEE
ON THE FREE LIST
Important Amendment De-
cided On Today By the
Republican Members.

Tea and coffee VIII be placed on the
free list as the Payne tariff goes TO the
Senate. This. the most important
amendment taken under consideration
by the Ways and Means Committee, was
decided upon at meeting Of the Re
publican members Of that committee to-
day. and is the direct result OF pressure
which has been brought to bear from
every section of the United States.
The committee also voted 10 make pos
sibIe a vote on the lumber and hide
schedules
The Ways and Means Committee OF
the House has apparently seen a great
light.
= It became known today that the COM
mittee has decided TO modify the Ium-
Der provision OF the Payne bill. As
framed at present. the bill provides for
maximum rates on all forest products
coming from any country or province
that puts a tax or restriction Ca the
expOTtaIion Of any lumber product. As
modified, ne maximum rates viii apply
OILY TO such particular lumber products
as are taxed for export by the foreign
country or province
Under the Payne bill as at present, IL
any province in Canada should tax
toothpicks for export. the United States
would COLLEGE the maximum duty on
saw logs, boards, and every other form
Of lumber product coming from that
province. Under the modification the
maximum rates would apply only to
toothpicks, and the other forms Of lum-
Der products would come in under the
minimum rates. so long as there IS no
tax on the export Of those products.
The Tax on Tea.
Moreover, Representative Gaines OF
West Virginia, a Republican member Of
the Ways and Means Committee. during
the course of a speech in the House
today, strongly intimated that the ma
tority OF the committee had also decided
TO revoke the proposed unpopular tax
on tea.

tended the Rules Committee should
bring in a rule for the final considera-

AND CREW MISSING
German Aeronaut and Four

BERLIN. April 1.-The gravest fears
are entertained today for the safety OF
Count Zeppelin and fourteen others who
are his guests aboard his new afrship,
in which the party attempted to make
a fight from Friedrichshafen to Munich.
The ascent was made at sunrise Ow-
Ing TO fierce gale that sprang up short
Iy after the fight was begun, the idea
Of landing at Munich was abandoned,
the wind driving the airship out OF the
contemplated course.
The ship has now been up ten hours.
IT was last seen drifting before the
wind, in an apparently unmanageable
condition.
Zeppelin's latest airship was but re-
Gently completed at cost Of more than
500, 600. Only this week he attained a
height Of more than 5000 feet, breaking
the record for craft of this sort.

GREEK MINISTRY
QUITS UNDER FIRE

The State Department was informed
today in dispatches from Athens that
the Greek ministry had fallen, and that
a new ministry would be formed. No
reason is given for the collapse, but
the dispatch mentioned. among other
things. that the government has with
drawn the bill proposing an increased
duty on cotton seed oil. OF which there
are large importauons from the United
States. This action was taken because
Of the internal conditions and the pro-
tests TO the foreign office by the
American minister.
