Fargo, N. d., Sept. S.-The coils are
tightening about the neck of Frank
Kethman, carpenter, of 1876 Ninth
street north, Fargo, suspected OF
numbering DR.. Thrond S. Egge, al
Moorehead about 1880 Monday night
Circumstantial as we'll as positive
evidence, has been collected against
the man who was arrested In Fargo
early yesterday morning by Acting
Captain of Police Mullen and Oficel
Mclean of Fargo, assisted by City
Attorney Witherow and Officer Eric
son of Moorehead.
As was stated yesterday morning
DR.. Egge was murdered late Labor
Day night near the corner Of Sixth
street and Second avenue-south, with
In 100 feet of his home.
He was riding a bicycle, and was
knocked of of the same and beaten
to death, his face and head present
ing a horrible sight, from which even
the attending doctors and police turn
ed away. their heads. -, f.
The instrument with which the deed
was committed was. king bolt from
a wagon and this was taken from a
wagon belonging to Alderman Lamb,
of Moorhead. The weapon had been
removed from the wagon and had
been returned to the wagon again.
1t is supposed that eKthman "laid
in wait" for his victim for at least
half an hour before committing the
crime. The police do not have the
slightest hesitancy in saying that
they have the right man and they be-
lieve that they have the evidence that
will eventually lead Kethman to the
gallows.
Further developments are expected
at the inquest today, for the police
have a great deal of evidence that
has not been given to the public, be-
lieving that the ends of. Justice will
be advanced by, keeping silence until
the case has been presented to the
coroner and his jury. ...,.. .s....
Great credit is being given the
Moorhead police, the city: attorney
of the same town, and the Fargo po-
lice. who assisted materially in rum
ming down the man who is believed
to be the criminal. '''
Kethman has a wife and five child
rem living in this city, while the
murdered man leaves a wife and two
children, a boy of six, and another of
twelve years. ''.''>. r"%
It was stated early this morning
that Kethman was already preparing
the way for putting up plea for in.

the night of the murder when he
was striking the trees, as we'll as his
actions after his arrest, were part of
his plans. .'~ '' %'S W. "''~*s

visit Detroit. Maybelle went to De-
troit, visited Miss Henning, a com.
panion since childhood, and then dis

man was sent money by some man
for the purpose of having a surgical
operation" said Sheriff Castor this
evening. 'This led her to leave her
home and deceive her parents. The
operation proved unsuccessful. Then
her body was. dismembered and the
vital portion destroyed and the rest
thrown into Ecorse creek. The girl
was prepared, In my estimation, to
meet her fate, and had aided in the
plans for secrecy should death fol-

Today sheriff Castor talked for
several hours with Miss Henning but
she stated that she, had no idea what
had been done to Miss Millman. She
stated that she knew Maybelle had
received letters from students at the
University Of Michigan. but that all
of them were frivoulous and showed
nothing of suspicious nature. Among
Miss Millman's friends was Paul su-
key, Jr., of Minneapolis, of the Uni

Mrs. Cook is in New York tonight
and Mrs. Peary has left her home in
Maine on her way to join her hus.
band at North Sydney. Though
pressed for statement, Mrs. Cook
declined tonight to say anything con-
corning her husband.
By those who received word of
DR.. Cooks discovery with skepticism
his assertions today received with
qualification; by those who had been
neutral it came as another surprise
in a series Of remarkable happenings,
while to Cooks supporters. il was a
signal for war, Cook, if his plans do
not miscarry will sail for the unitcc
States Sunday next and will arrive
here by September 21st. by that
time Peary will have reached home
but no one has as yet mentioned the
possibility of a meeting Of the two
face TO face. -.
Peary's statement rejecting on
Cooks achievement came first TO the
Associated Press early this morning
dated Indian Harbor, Labrador, The
point through which he first reported
his success by wireless. 1t hal beea
delayed in transmission and read as
follows: 81 have nailed stripes and
stars to North Pole; this is authori-
tative and correct"
Cooks story should not be taken
too seriously. The two Eski,nos Woo
accompanied him say he went no dis
lance north and not out Of sight of
land. Other members Of the tribe
corroberate. their story"
About the same time Mrs. Peary
received the following message under
same date, both having been sent VIA
Cape Ray, N. F. !,
GOOD morning. Delayed l,yfgale.
Don't let Cook story worrxs4 you
Have him nailed" y. s.-~s.-
The foregoing was signed simply
Bert" an abbreviation OF Robert.
While the message to the Associated
Press bore the single word 'Peary'
as its signature.
To the Associated Press the COM
mander had sent dispatch replying
to an urgent request for authori'a-
tive statement and some comment
concerning Cook. This reques. had
been sent to him Immediately after
he had flashed the news Of his dis
covery from Indian Harbor on Mon
day. p.
While Peary's assertion of today is
of a nature that makes Cooks posi-
ton one of defense the Brooklyn ex-
plorer yet has supporters both at
home and abroad. Many Of the con :
tinent scientists are marking time
pending developments, while those
who have formed no opinion in this
country have assumed similar
stand. With the Roosevelt at Battle
Harbor tonight, Peary should reach
Red Bay, about sixty-five miles down
the coast, easily by tomorrow, where
he can put details Of his expedition

.,. Yesterday morning . stranger ap.
peared on the construction job where
Kethman had been employed as fore
man. The new conner inquired for
Kethman. 1t was noticed that his
face was badly battered with appar
entity fresh bruises.
The man claimed that he had had
trouble with Kethman in a Moorehead
saloon the night previous; that he
was very drunk and unable to defend
himself: that Kethman had pounded
him in the face. He appeared, he
stated, to get revenge and was on the
Job early to settle the score with
Kethman. whom he was not aware
was then behind the bars Of the
Moorhead jail.
There is no doubt in the minds OF
those who saw this man and heard
his story, but that .bleod flowed in his !
encounter with Kethman. Whether
the latter's clothes were stained In
that incident is q feature which may
play an important part In the case
when it-comes up for trial.

DR.. T. s. Egge, decided that the ply
stefan met his death at the hands of
one Frank Kethman, under arrest on

STATE GETS BIG SUM
Iowa Will Soon Receive About s45,ooo
From Estate of George Wells as In
heritance Tax-Larsest Similar Tax
Ever Collected.

Des Moines, May G.-The state Of
Iowa stands to receive, within very
few days, the largest bunch of cold
cash ever exacted by Iowa from heirs
of an Iowa estate. This will be from
the George Wells estate in Grundy
county. The state will get at least
$4,000.
A short time ago the supreme court
decided who should pay the tax and
also that it should be paid not only on
that part passing to heirs, but that part
paid in settlement of certain claims,
and the estate itself rather than the
heirs shall pay all but a small part of
the sum. The issues involved in the
suit are regarded as the most import
ant ever involved in any case regard
ing collateral inheritance taxes for If
the state had lost the law might as
we'll have been repealed.
Hon. c. w. Mullan, of Waterloo, the
resident executor of the estate, stated
the other day, as he looked up the de-
cision and secured a copy of the courts
orders, that there is now nothing left
