Scandal. Kan. March 29-An inquest
into the brutal murder OF Alexander Lin
dahl, his son. Elmer. and his daughter,
Eleanor, In q motor boat ON the Repub-
lican river is in progress here today.
Charles Nordmark, the hermit who was
arrested yesterday and placed in jail at
Bellevllle, near here, pending investiga.
ton, was brought to Scandal today to tes-
tify at the inquest. Nordmark was stolidly
indifferent to the PROCEEDINGS. d.
Charles Nordmark. under arrest for the
murder Of the Lindahl family, was before
the coroner's jury today. At first he re-
fused to answer any questions. Then he
was taken into a room and placed before
the bodies OF Lindahl and his children.
He was unmoved.
did you Kill themT asked the coroner,
pointing to the victims.
Il tell you now. tho same as 1 did yes
terday," said Nordmark. quietly, that /
did not do It,"
This was his only utterance.
Nordmark was then taken to the farm
where the murder was committed, accom-
panied by the coroner and the jury.
1t developed today that Nordmark was
fixing a fence only fifty feet from where
the murder was committed on Saturday.
Two empty shotgun shells were found
where he was working. 1t also developed
that Lindahl left home with his two chill
dren shortly after noon on Saturday to set
some fish traps in the river, which is near
his house. The traps were stlll In the boat
indicating that the murder must have been
committed early Saturday afternoon.
The officers attempted a ruse to learn

with him in a room at a hotel. This man
told Nordmark that this was the time for
aim to escape. He said he had a horse out
side and would help him get TO Nebraska,
If he would run out the back way.

Sands Of poor immigrants were brought to
this country from. continental Europe by
the steamship companles which, 1t Is g.

promises, to leave their European homes
and come to America In quest of almost
fabulous wealth, only to be thrown upon
the charity Of a strange country, poverty
stricken, homeless and frequently forced
into absolute peonage.
The statements were those OF Mrs. Mary

former employee OF the Department OF JUS

alleged peonage cases in the south. For a
year she has been abroad, at her own ex-

Of the country, where they we're put to
work at barely enough wages to sustain
life," said Mrs. Quackenbos.

Employment OF Women and Children.
Judged by the number of laws enacted
on the subject, the employment of women
and children is the question most In the
legislative mind insofar as labor legisla-
ton is concerned, thirty-two states hav-
ing enacted fifty-four laws or amendments
thereon in the last two years. In the ma
jority of cases these laws are amendatory.
Principal laws were enacted in ten states,
four Of them mississippi, North Dakota,
Oklahoma and Washington being first en-
actments on the subjects covered, while
in the other six cases (Kansas, Kentucky,
Louisiana, Michigan, Pennsylvania and
Virginia) the statutes supersede prior en-
actments. The laws relate to age limit
hours Of labor. prohibited employments,
compulsory school attendance, c~ertification,
registry and all the provisions that have
been. found valuable in the matter Of the
regulation Of the employment Of women
and children. The employment Of children
Is the subject Of the large majority of
these acts. Extended and detailed lists of
employments prohibited for children APP
pear in the legislation Of New York, North
DohObay OHlOi OhidnoIud ana RennSylVa-
MIA, and in a number OF states new laws
are added prohibiting night work. In sew
eral states the hours Of labor Of children
were reduced to eight per day. In Massa-
chusetts and Rhode Island the hours of
labor OF women and children were reduced
to fifty-six per week in manufacturing or
mechanical establishments.
Laws were passed providing for bpreaus
Of labor In Oklahoma and Texas, and
changing an existing office In South Car
ollna so as TO give It largely the character
of a labor bureau. Other laws relate to
the negligence Of employees, the reporting
of accidents, the control OF private en-
ployment agencies, the protection against
by employers or exclusion by
labor unions Of workmen who are or may
become members of the National Guard
and the protection of employees on building
construction,
