William ahlgren
Found Dead IN Bed
Dies from Inhaling Gas, Which ID
Turned Accidentally, it is
Believed.

William wahIgreen was found dead in
his bed by neighbors at his room, 1907
South Twenty-fifth avenue, with a jet of
a gas stove turned on. 1t is supposed his
death was accidental.
Wahlgren was seen Tuesday night about
z o'clock by ~neighbors when he went to
his room. In the morning Mrs. McArtell,
who lives above the rooms OF the man,
noticed an odor of gas and vent to his
apartments to see II fumes were issuing
from them. She knocked on the door and
on not receiving an answer, called DR..
Joseph f. Baptist and George Wolf, who
entered the room, which was unlocked. and
found Wahlgrer, partially undressed lying
on his bed. It. is thought he had been
dead for hours as a partly eaten meal,
evidently prepared for the night before,
was on a table.
Wahlgren was a laboring man and had
lived at the house where he died for a
number of years. He was unmarried and
led a quiet secluded life, say the neighbors.
His brother Nels died at the county hos
pital recently and It Is reported that he
has another brother living at the county
farm.
Coroner Crosby took charge Of the body
and an inquest will be held.

Commercial Club
to Help IN Census
Will Assist the Government in the
Effort to Make the Count
Accurate.

c, l.. Saunders, director OF the census.
will have more help IN taking the census
in Omaha than he expected. The CONNER
club has decided to enumerate the
population in advance and thus lend assist
ance to the director by giving him the
books from which he may check. The club
has raised the money for this purpose.
Whether Omaha has 165, 900 population at
present or only 1000. will be known be-
for the census director starts his work,
for the Commerclai club will have very
accurate, data before that time. The exc
cutive committee has voted the authority
to do the work and has delegated the task
to the publicity bureau Of the club.
Omaha will present a remarkable growth,
as the records show that during the last
four years the city has built 400 new
places of abode. 1t was said that twelve
years ago there were 5000 empty houses in
Omaha. When the census was taken In
1900 many of these were occupied by the
people who had come to Omaha to work in
connection with the Transmississippi and
All-American exposition. These houses are
all filled at present and since last census
more than 1000 houses have been erected
in Omaha. This indicates that Omaha has
been growing at a tremendous rate, espe-
cially during the last four years when the
average has been more than 1000 new
homes a year.
The interest OF the Commercial club is in
having the census accurate and 1t believes
this will assist materially.

]. L. M'CAGUE WANTS LOOP
TO CONCENTRATE BUSINESS
says This Would Define Center and
EQualiHe Values of Down
Town Property.

The business center OF Omaha must be
anchored and not be permitted to glide
around on wheels as has been the expert
ence Of many other western cities,'' said
John l.. McCague in addressing the Omaha
Real Estate exchange. ..'"The trouble with
the business center of. Omaha is tina 1t
has no confines and too many think IL lies
within a block Of Sixteenth and Farnam
streets. -r
There is just one way to remedy this
condition n it may be done at once and
for all time. That viii be to have the
street cars of the city run around a loop
instead Of shooting across town as they dc
now. II the cars could be run around a
loop the business center could be enlarged
to include all property within that loop
and one piece would then be nearly as
available as another within the loop
and there would not be such prohibitive
purchase and rental prices on some Of the
best locations. The limits Of the business
center could then be enlarged to run from
Thirteenth street on the east to about
Eighteenth street on the west and Daven-
port on the north to Howard or jackson
street on the south.
"Omaha will have a population OF 800, 900
in 1890 and 1t is time we built for the
future. That would only be doubling In
twenty years and / rave seen the city
quadrupled during the last thirty years.
The wholesale district will take care of
itself"
Mr.. McCague assured some visitors from
Council Bluffs, who protested against the
burnt district being in sight OF Council
Bluffs people who cross on the street cars,
that the matter would be settled as far as
the end of the bridge was concerned in a
very short time, as the many new jobbinS
and manufacturing houses we're fast crowd
ing out the present tenants. He said that
during the last sixty days a large amount
OF this property had changed hands and
that this summer would see the erection of
many business blocks.
Mr., MeCague also advocated the estab-
lishment Of a limit TO the height Of build
ings to be erected in Omaha in the future.

REESE EXCUSES MISS BREESE
Chief Justice of Supreme Court Not
Convinced She Sidestepped.
MAsoURmEs MANDATE ARRIVES
Opinion of Upper Court Goes Into an
Analysis of Testimony of the Girl
Who Was with the Greek
Night of Killing.

Extreme sympathy for Lillian Breese, the
girl witness in the Masourldes murder case,
Is manifested by Chief Justice Manoah b.
Reese in the mandate Of the supreme
court which grants a new trial to the
Greek. The mandate, which the chief JUS
tice' himself, wrote, has just been received
in district court, although it's general nature
was given out some time ago.
The practically unanimous opinion Of
those who heard the girl give evidence at
the trial is that she was an unwilling
witness against the Greek. The supreme
court on reading her testimony holds diff
ferently, asserting, 1T is to be observed
that, upon careful reading OF the testi-
mony of the witness, we are persuaded
that she was not hostile to the state and
that her examination exhibits a candid and
earnest desire to tell the whole truth as
she understood it,
Reflection upon the Imprisonment OF the
girl pending the trial Is cast by the man.
date, which says: Jus why THIS was
necessary is not made clear
The new trial is granted on the ground
that it was reversible error FOR the court
to permit the prosecution to Introduce In
evidence the written statement made by the
girl to County Attorney English immedi-
ateiy after the shooting, This English
introduced to show that the girl declared
that she saw Officer Lowry draw his re-
volver after she had heard two shots, the
Implication being that the Greek fired
first. On the stand the girl told a different
tale about this.

Of the opinion the testimony of the Greek
that he was about to leave the city. and
for this reason was carrying the knife and
revolver.
A Judge Of the district court-not Judge
! Sutton, who heard the case-declared that
he thought the supreme court had been the
more easily Induced to grant a new trial,
because it is vigorously opposed to capital
punishment, and hat it did not care to
commute sentence this time because OF
the criticism provoked the last time this
was done.
