PLEADS GUILTY TO MURDER.
One Of Kaufman Suspects Admits Kill
ina Chicago Woman.

Chicago, Feb. 20.-Fred Bonehain. one
of the four men indicted for the muir
DER Of Mrs. Hattie Kaufman. appeared
in Judge Kersten's court yesterday and
entered a formal plea OF guilty.
Boneham's action, tho expected,
caused stir among the other defend
ants. They have elected to fight the
prosecution. altho all have made con-
LESSONS and have been hoping against
hope that Boneham would decide to
stand with them. The latter, however.
has concluded to make a clean breast
OF it in the hope that the court may
prove merciful TO the extent OF not i'm
posing the death penalty. .
Assistant States Attorney Northup
SAID after the proceedings that there
had been no consultation between
Boneham and the states attorneys Of
nee in regard to his plea. He took the
action on his own initiative. He will
not be sentenced until tic cases OF the
ether defendants are disposed OF. MI.
Northup said that he had not even
made up his mind to call Boneham as
witness.

oLEo COMPETITION HITS BUTTER
Fear That Consumers Will Become
Users Lowers Creamery TO rs Cents.

Chicago. FEB. 20.-1nroads OF the
oleoma riga rine makers into the butter
trade resulted yesterday in a sharp de-
crease in the pure creamery product.
Butter dealers are fearful lest the oleo-
margarine makers win and permanent
ly hold as customers a large percentage
OF the present butter consumers.
Chicago butter and egg board ofh-
Gals lowered the creamery butter quo.
.ation here cents pound. Then they
hurried to Elgin and forced the boayd
there to change its 80 cent quotation to
% cents. drop Of cents. The 2
cent cut made at Chicago followed two
previous reductions OF 2 cents each.
This left the price rs cents a pound
for best creamery butter, or cent
lower than the F:lgin price, This may
cause merchants who buy on the Elgin
basis inconvenience and probably the
Chicago price will be advanced to the
Elgin price.
Eggs in Chicago accompanied butter
in the downward movement, selling at
wholesale at reduction Of 2 cents a
dozen from last weeks closing prices
and at IL cents lower than the recent
high price. 40 cents a dozen.

The city council met on Saturday and
transacted some business and started
something which was warmly debated
and left over for future consideration.
Resolutions passed directed: That the
various funds of the city de kept In
separate accounts at the bank; gave
notice to the city treasurer to pay no
bonds unless expressly authorized to do
so by the city council, in which case
they are to be paid by city warrants
drawn in the regular way; and, author
lied the city treasurer to pay $500 from
the surplus in the superior court fund
Of $4S5 and place il 10 the credit of
the corporation fund. The matter for
discussion was thes introduction Of an
ordinance by Professor Gannaway. Of
the street and alley committee. which
was called the garbage" ordinance
and provided that each householder in
the city should provide metal or
which should be placed q PAL. and
tina, all garbage from the residence
should be placed therein and the pail
emptied twice a week in summer and
cnce a week in winter. The objections
urged were that this puts an additional
burden upon many who are properly
caring for their garbage in other ways.
and that the ordinances now on the
books for preservation of the health CT
the city are not enforced and no ne"
ones should be made until these are
properly enforced. -
