Of the Kruegers. When the ashes had

but there was no evidence OF the aged
couple having been burned TO death.
Later two boys were digging in the cellar
and noticed that the brick floor had been
tampered with. one OF them raised a
brick and the face of the dead woman was
revealed. More of the floor was taken up
and the body OF Mr. Grueger was found.

not known just when the murder occurred,
as the Kruegers were last seen alive on
Tuesday evening by NJ. Sobolosk a tailor,
who last Saturday paid Mr.. Kruger $2.OOO

1t is believed that robbery was the
motive, and that the slayer. after burying

cover up the murder.

Caldwell & Drake Of Columbus Ind, will

having been formerly awarded the con-
tract Thursday afternoon.
What had been expected to be a matter
Of form only developed into a good-slzed
argument al the last minute. Commissioner
Kennard arrayed himself against the
other four members of the board, Kennard,
who voted 'nD" against the resolution
awarding the contract, previously offered
one of his own for re-advertising for bids
on the ground that home contractors
might do better and that the cost OF
material may be less after the tariff is
revised.
Previous to this there had been another
hitch. Kennard discovered that the five
separation bids of Caldwell & Drake total
81 900 less than their bid "A" which is
for the undivided work OF construction and
is SS24s5. The board has been proceeding
on the expectancy that the bid "a only
was in consideration and that the bid
would be awarded and the contract let on

County Attorney English with this In mind

Last Spike in
New Coast Line
Milwaukee Extension Completed and
Breaks Record of Speed in
Construction.

CHICAGO. April lit was announced
today from the offices of the Chicago
Milwaukee & st. Paul railroad in this city
that without eny golden spike. without
the presence of any of the principal Of
ficers Of the company, the last rail on the
Pacific coast extension Of the Chicago,
Milwaukee & st. Paul railway. now known
as the Chicago, st. Paul N Puget Sound
railway, has been laid at a point two miles
west of Mssoula- There was no cele-
bration of any kind and the completion of
the sixth transcontinental railroad was
simply a part of the days work
The length of the extension just com
pleted from the Missouri river to Seattle
and Tacoma is a trifle over 1,400 miles.
The completion of the new transcontinental
line creates a worlds record for rapidity
of railway construction. The first shovel
full of earth on the new line was turned
April IS, 1905. Since then 60,oO0,OOO cubic
yards of material has been excavated,
800. 900 yards of tunnel driven, twenty miles
of bridges erected and 10000 tons Of eighty
five pounds rails laid at total cost of
sS5, 200, 900.
The ballasting Of the new transconti-
mental line will be completed about June
l. 1909, and regular freight and local pas
senger service will be establised thereafter.

Shaw alkS on
Tariff Measure
All Interests Should Be Guarded,
Says Former Secretary of
Treasury.

KANSAS CITY. Mo, April IL would
like to see the protection idea adhered to
throughout the tariff bill now before con-
gress," said Leslie NJ. Shaw, eX-secretary
Of the treasury, in interview last night.
1T will be a great misfortune IL only
those interests which can muster ma
jority shall receive protection while all
other interests are sacrificed.
Cleveland declared the wilson-Gorman
bill full OF 'perfidy and dlshonor' simply
because IL failed to adhere to principle.
II a new bill shall be a repetition, l shall
regret that the republican party will
have TO answer for the calamity that will
ensue.
The principle OF protection is right or
1t is wrong II It is right, then every
interest should be protected. II 1T is wrong,
then we should have tariff for revenue
only and no protection for anyone Tariff
and free trade are synonymous terms. God
save us from another attempt to mix the
principle of protection and a tariff for
revenue only according to the local inter-
ests of constituency Of the different con-
gressmen and senator's"

ness. departed for Philadelphia, where on

sixty-five miles northeast Of Munich.
Part OF the journey was made under cir

fused to work. and It was impossible for
the airship to make headway against the
wind which increased steadily in violence.

the same as for the bid A.. "A clerical
error is his explanation of the differenoe.
The board finally decided to award the
contract on the general bid

yides that the building shall be built for
$s22, ,57l. The firms bid was SS24S46. but
there is a deduction Of s22 275 for change
in plaster and sand, the board taking ad-
vantage of this.
When The question OF bid and the
separation bids came up there was general
discussion by the members OF the boa I'd
and by County Attorney English and
Architect Latenser, all but Kennard favor
ing the letting OF the contract as il was
later done This argument was good

he could make no headway and ii was
noticed that the airship was being driven
sdewise down the wind. When the serious
ness Of the situation was realized the troops
We're ordered out to follow the airshp and

The count endeavered to overcome the
resistance Of the wind by rising to a greater
altitude but this maneuver apparently was
not successful for the balloon was driven
rapidly from the sight of the people of
Munich in a northeasterly direction.
The airship was manned by Count Zer-
pelin. Major Sperlng, several Officers Of
the engineer corps md a crew OF soldiers

When the airship was sighted shortly
before 9 o'clock approaching Munich the
church bells OF the city rang out in peals
OF welcome and cannon fired a salute. As
the ship drew nearer the whirr of the
motor could be heard on the streets of
the city. The vessel made its way to a
point over the exposition grounds and
descended TO within 900 feet. Thousands
OF people had gathered on the grounds
and the maneuver was greeted with an
outburst OF cheering. The prince regent
OF Bavaria was present and saluted Count
Zeppelin who stood on the bridge. A
band played the national anthem.
The airship then moved off in the direc-
tion of the palace, where II was greeted
from the tower by the princesses OF the
royal family.
