lions Lasting Nearly Fifty

bers of the senior class for their annual

noon to outline the work for 1t. The fair
will be held during the spring vacation,
which is earlier than in the past.
The Monday meeting is the first regular
one held since the faculty decided in favor
of the fair, so the business was limited TO
a general plan. 1t was decided that each
member Of the class hand in his name to
the president. with a suggestion as to
which of the following committees he would
like to be placed: Arrangements, decora-
tions, reception, finance, refreshment, ticket
and advertising, candy, punch, entertain
ment. aprons and general.
With the support promised by the mem
bers of the class. Mrs. Fleming feels con-
fident of the outcome. THE most promi-
nent feature OF the fair will be the play, ="
said Mrs. Fleming, but the color drill and
minstrel show will also require much
preparation, 80 far, little has been defin-
itely decided upon. but the general plan
Is to make this fair the best that We
possibly can"
The play, Mr.. Bob" will involve seven
characters and will be under the manage
ment of Miss Elizabeth Mcconnell and
Miss Jessie Barton.

NOISY DAY IN The HOUSE

so-called Appalachian and White mountain

one shape or another for many years and
today's action witnessed the partial con-
summation OF a policy In connection with

JURY READY FOR SCH0FIELD
Man Charged with Riede Murder
VIII Face District Court
Today.

A jury to try Gerald Schofield on a
charge of first degree murder was secured
yesterday afternoon at 5 o'clock after fifty
three talesmen had been examined. Schoo-
field is indicted for the murder of John
,Riede, a South Omaha saloon keeper last
May.
County Attorney English will ask the
death penalty for Schofleld If his questions
to Jurors about objections to capital pun
ishment are significant. The jury selected
is as follows:
Lars Jansen, 2lO5 North Forty-second
G. II. Packard, dundee.
J. c. Edgerly, Dundee.
G. II. Hall, 1872 Military avenue.
Anton Bloomquest. Waterloo.
Martin Jensen, 1913 Capitol avenue.
William Jensen, 221S North Twenty
G G. Day, 1872 Capitol avenue.
John Clarity, R. E; D; No; 3; Benson benson
Otto Matthers. Station A. Omaha.
schofield, with George Bond, entered
Riede's saloon at Twenty-fourth and r
streets last May and Bond shot Riede dead.
Bond is now serving a life term for the
crime.
1t is asserted that Schofield was in another
room at the time or the shooting and the
case may turn on whether he can be held
as an accessory. The question of the intent
of the two men when they entered the
saloon probably will play a part. Bond on
his trial put up a story of self defense
saving that he kicked Riede's dog, that
Reide drew on him and he fired to save
his own life. The jury did not fancy the
narrative.
County Attorney English and Assistant
Attorney L. ]. Patti are prosecuting and
]. L. Haley and A. II. Murdoch are de-
Tending Schofield.
The trial of Mrs. Eta Banner for muir
der has gone over until March 10. Attorney
Gering OF the defense is trying a murder

Senate Committee
HopeleSsly at Sea
on Steel Merger
Disagreement Will Be Reported on
Resolution for Investigation at
This Mornings Meeting.

WASHINGTON. March THE senate
committee on judiciary tods< voted to
report a disagreement on the resolution
providing for an n~vestagation OF the alb
sorption OIL the Tennessee Coal and Iron
company by the United States Steel corpor-
alton.
The decision. not to submit either of the
reports of the subcommittee was reached
after a great deal of discussion. Finally
Senator Fulton moved that a disagreement
be reported and that each senator should
should have the individual right reserved
to him to make such expressions Of views
to the senate as he desired.
This motion was adopted by a vote OF
seven to five. the affirmative votes being
Messrs Clark Of Wyoming, Depew, Foraker,
Dillingham;, Knox, Fulton and Clarke Of
Arkansas, and the negative votes were
Nelson, kittredge, Culberson, Overman and
Rayner. Senator Bacon was not present.
No vote was taken by the committee on
either side OF the reports OF the sub-com-
mittee. MIR. Foraker suggested that the
committee should report to the senate that
the president was not authorized by law
to permit the merger, such Q report being
In direct response to the inquiry of the
senate. Mr.. Foraker finally gave way to
the suggestion of Mr.. Fulton. The views of
Mr.. Bacon were expressed in a letter to
the committee and 1t is expected that
later he will amplify these and present
them to the senate.
Any views submitted to the senate will
be considered individual" reports, not
having the sanction OF the committee.
This in generally regarded as a COM
promise, as a number of senator's had
drafted a report declaring the merger to
be in violation of the Sherman antitrust
law, and rebuking President Roosevelt for
his part in the transactions. while others
declared it was not the function of the
committee to pass upon these questions.
