ELECTROMAGNETIC O'Malley, a
farmer residing in the western part
of this county, who was released from
custody trio weeks ago on charge
of poisoning his two step children,
there not being sufficient evidence,
was again arrested by Pinkerton men,
who worked two days and nights on
the case.
O'Malley finally confessed, after
which he was lodged in the county Jail
to await hearing to be held the latter
part of August O'Malley, who is q
widower, AZ years old, with seven chill
dren, married Mrs. Pragel of this city,
widow with three children.
Two of her children were taken sick.
In his confession he admitted giving
them medicine in which he mixed a
quantity of poison, increasing the dose
each time. Suspicion was aroused af-
ter the children were buried. The
bodies were exhumed and the gtom-
achs sent to the state chemist for
analysis. He found poison in them.
The only motive suggested is that
O'Malley wanted to get the children
out of the way. He does not say why.
The work of County Attorney F. j..
Hanzel and the Pinkerton men result
ed in the arrest. His wife has not
, lived with him since the death of the
children. She was not aware of the
fact that he had poisoned her children
until their bodies were exhumed. A
doctor at LIE Sueur diagnosed the cas-
es as infantile paralysis.

Members of Drainage Com
mission Study Case.

Hibbing. = Several millions Of dol.
lars worth of natural resources are
involved in a case which will be
brought by the state of Minnesota to
determine the ownership of the ore
deposits under the beds of lakes in
the range country. Property worth
$25 100000 will be saved to the state
if the state wins, according to state
officials.
Attorney General Simpson and his
assistant, c. Louis Weeks, came to
Hibbing on the same train that
brought Governor Eberhart and the
members of the state drainage COM
mission. The attorney general, his as
sistant, State Auditor Iverson and
Governor Eberhart conferred with
Frank Willis, state mine inspector,
concerning the case. A visit was
made by the officials to Long Ear
lake, where the mine which is being
used as the test case is located. Mil.
lions of tons of ore in this lake alone
will be saved if the state wins. There
are many such lakes on the range.
common Law Principle.
It is a principle of common law
that the owners of land on the shore
own the lake bed if the lake goes dry.
The question as to the states own
ing the ore did not come up until
seven years ago, when application was
made to State Auditor Iverson for
the leasing of such land for mining
purposes.
The lease was granted for the pur-
pose of making test case. The mat
ter was carried to the United States
supreme court, but that court decided
that it had no jurisdiction as it was
entirely question of state law. The
next time an application was made,
it was refused so that the courts could
be asked for a decision. Again the
supreme court decided that it had no
jurisdiction.
AS there was no state law govern
ing the case, the matter was put up to
the legislature. Twice the legislature
refused to enact such a law, but at
the last session a law was passed
Pl ONiuCu lOl IuO 0IdlO OWACI-
ship of all ore deposits under lakes.
The Euclid Mining company was
mining on the shores of Long Ear
lake at the time. The state started
injunction proceedings to stop it from
stripping this ore which the law said
belonged to the state. The mining
company finally gave bonds to the
state so that it could keep on mining
until the case was settled in the
courts.
If the state wins the company will
have to pay the state for the ore TAX
en- out. The money which will be
brought into the state treasury in the
event of the states winning this suit,
VIII be devided into two parts, one
half going into the revenue fund, and
the other into the road and bridge
fund. The revenue fund will be so
materially increased in the event of
the states winning that taxes which
have already been reduced will be re-
duced a great deal more and in time,
perhaps eliminated.
The outcome of this case involves
much more money than comes from
either the inheritance tax or the gross
earnings.
