Morris tribune., 1915-05-21

was formerly farmer in the town Of
Swan Lake but rented the place to
Albert Hugely last month and came
to Morris to live. He desert bes the
Mitmoens as very eccentric, and says
they were misery in their methods
of living. At such times as he visit
ed the farm no hospitality was shown
and only business matters were dis.
cussed. The premises were kept neat
and tidy.
Mr.. Pearsons and his parents now
live in Morris and the old folks seem
to enjoy retirement from farm work.
The family have an automobile and
will make frequent trips out to see
the old neighbors and former &C.
quaintances.
Morris tribune., 1915-05-21

Contents of bureau drawers were
strewn about the floor. The crime
was discovered on Wednesday but evil
dences indicate the murders were COM
mitted several days before. When
Sheriff Gilbertson searched the house
he found $2,762 in gold and currency
overlooked by the murderers. The
men are believed to have had a much
larger sum and if so this was
taken.
1t is believed the crime was COM
mitted by some person or persons
acquainted with the men and surround
ings. The theory is advanced that as
the robbers worked they were recog-
nized by the Mitmoens. 1t is believed
that one of the brothers escaped while
the search of the house was in pro.
gress ard that he was about to mount
horse and 60 for assistance when he
was killed. The two men found in
the house are thought to have been
murdered last to conceal the identity
of the assassins. Just what the de-
tectives have found is carefully guard
ed but arrests of men known in Pos
county is looked for.
Among those in Morris who knew
the Mitmoens and had visited thei.
farm is j. O. Pearson. Mr.. Pearson

WHEAT EASES DOWN ON
GOOD HARVEST WEATHER
Prices Also Bearishly Affected by
Conditions in Spring Crop Belt.
Liverpool Is Ignored.

CHICAGO. July 2O.-Improved wealth
er in the harvest region tended today
to ease down the wheat market. Prices
were bearshly affected also by the fact
that conditions in the spring crop belt
remained highly favorable and against
the development of black rust. Traders
here ignored an advance in quotations
at Liverpool.
The market. after opening Il to TX
lower, underwent a material further
decline.
Corn weakened with wheat On the
downturn. however, spectators went
to the buying side, owing to reports OF
a good eastern shipping call and OF
country offerings being reduced. open
ing prices. which ranged from asal. on
TO 4 up, were followed by a moderate
general reaction.
In oats the feature was selling that
was believed to be due to pressure from
the new crop. The effect was to lower
prices. especially for July.
Provisions declined in sympathy with
hogs. Trade, however, was not large.
