OPINIONS DIFFER ON THAT
ANTI-RRYAN MEETING

Lincoln, Neb.. April 21.-The aspira-
tions of Charles w. Bryan to be mayor
of Lincoln did not receive the rude
jolt at the meeting of business men
that had been heralded There We're
$50 of them present, but the vote to
adopt resolutions which were aimed at
Bryan, and to indorse five candidates
for commissioner. in which Bryan was
not included, was light. After it was
over Mr.. Bryan, who had been refused
permission to buy ticket, said that
considerable number of those present
We're for him. He also declared that
the platform. in which a stand was
taken against municipal gas plant.
proved his previous claim that the gas
company was behind the movement.
The meeting was planned by several
wholesalers, lawyer and demo-
cratic newspaper owner. The Germans.
who are very warm in their denuncia-
ton of Secretary Bryan, and who are
trying to vent their wrath upon
Brother Charley. were also in evidence.
The result of the meeting is to greatly
intensity the feeling in the campaign,
and make it largely Bryan and anti
Bryan. Two friends Of Bryan who
sought to speak We're barred. Those
who did talk scored Bryan. Among
these was j. w. Cartright. editor OF
the Star, and former private secretary
to w. j. Bryan. The burden of their
objection was that c. w. Bryan wanted
to be elected mayor in order to use 1t
as stepping stone to the governors
chair.

WEST POINT CASE IS
DOUBLE MURDER; BODY
OF WOMAN IN CELLAR
Believed Robbers Killed Aged
Couple and Then Set Fire
to Their Home.

West Point. Neb., April 2l.-In a
search of the ruins of the Herman
Wruck home, yesterday afternoon, the
charred remains of Mrs. Wruck's body
was found under mass Of debris in
the cellar. The position Of the body
indicated that 1t might have fallen
through from the bed room on the Sec
ond floor.
This discovery convinced the local Of
ficers that the Wruck home had been
visited by robbers. who set fire to the
house In order to conceal evidence of
the crime. 1t Is certain that Mr.. Wruck
was murdered, following fierce strug-
gle. There is some doubt as to whether
Mrs. Wruck was killed by the robbers
or whether she was trapped by the
fire.
In the early stages of the gruesome
discovery some were inclined to ad-
vance the theory that Wruck had killed
MS wife and then committed suicide,
out all of the evidence Is against this
conclusion. Those who first gained ac-
cess to the house and removed wruck's
dead body. found the walls. floor and
furniture spattered with blood, proving
> struggle had ensued.
The murder theory is further sus-
tanned by the fact that Wruck had ar
ranged to leave yesterday morning for
a trip to Oregon and was supposed to
have a considerable sum of money on
his person.

HOGS.

Sioux City Stock Yards, Sioux City, IA.
April 21.-Around 1900 hogs were bulle-
tined to arrive at the local market Tor the
mid-week session, as against 1894 week
ago and 1851 the corresponding day, year
ago. Market was rather slow in getting
under way this morning Advices from
outside market centers indicated a lower
trend and this aided the buyers, in their
efforts at cheapening the cost. First bids
made were all of 5@10c lower. but sellers
were inclined to hold for better prices and
We're successful in trimming the loss to a
big nickel. Quality measured up well with
that of the previous day. There was some
inquiry from shippers and this helped SELL
ers to get best action on the right good
butcher grades and on these kinds the loss
was only a shade to a nickel. Close was
at the low point, or 1Oc lower. When ship
ping orders were complete local packers
had their say and the trade finished duh
at the decline.
The selling basis today extended from
$7.30Qy7.40. a bulk of N.2507.35. a cost of
$7.32, and an average weight of 254 pounds
as compared with range of s7.35@D7. 4sk, a
bulk of s7.3507.4 40. a cost of 81. 3SH and an

Guarding American Honor.

From the st. Paul Dispatch.
No one who Is jealous of the honor and
integrity of American institutions can
feel other than profoundly grateful that
Mayor Dom NJ. Roberts, Of Tere Haute.
Ind, and his whole crew of political
henchmen who corrupted the elections in
their home town last November were
promptly found guilty by the federal jury
at indianapolis.
Such a wholesale voting debauch as
they INDUCED in-or engineered-not. only
sullies the fair name Of their city and
commonwealth. but provides the enemies
of American democratic institutions with
too much basis for attack A Lecky
might describe the Terre Haute election
frauds as the inseparabe accompaniment
of universal suffrage and as convincing
evidence of the defects OF democracy.
We know, of course. that such conclu-
sion would be wrong But there are al
ways certain elements In the community
who are ready to take advantage of their
great privileges and corrupt them to pri-
vate ends. Against them. and In behalf
of the America whose honor we are jeal-
Gus of, we must be eternally vigilant.
Let us hope. then, that Judge Ander-
son, of the indianapolis federal court,
metes out to the Terre Haute offenders
punishment equivalent to their crime, and
puts them behind the bars for while,
where they may mediate on the hard
way of the transgressor.

AS no charges of graft or corrup-

against either Fisher or Stewart,
both men feel that they can step

aording to their friends. The fault

Or misleading in the entire affair

offices of the county attorney and the

Start the Day Right.
From the National Magazine,


The senator quietly dressed and we
adjourned to cozy little sitting ROOM
We had just got comfortably seated
when Lady Tillman appeared with a
bowl and two large tumblers. The bowl
was handed to the senator and the
tumblers were passed to me. They were
filled with an egg nog. Having eaten
about 1000 meals a year for some so
years, 1 thought I had sampled about
all the good things, but 1t has never
been my privilege to taste anything
more delicious than these Tillman egg
nogs Upon my special request Mrs.
Tillman very cheerfully gave me the
following recipe:
Whip the whites and yolks of four
eggs separately. whip them very thor
oughly. the more you whip them the
better: add to each yolk tablespoonful
of sugar before whipping. add to each
yolk tablespoonful of Cognac brandy
| or good whisky while whipping. then
whip in the whites. to a perfect mix
ture. Whip the brandy in slowly after
the yolks have been thoroughly
whipped.
This egg nog constitutes Senator
| T1llman's breakfast every day and he
| eats nothing more until 4 o'clock in the
afternoon.
"Why do you take this kind OF q
breakfast" l inquired
Because the egg whites furnish IN.
highest form of proteid, the sugar fur
nishes heat. and the egg yolk furnishes
both fat and phosphorus while the
brandy neutralizes and makes them ali
more digest!ble." answered the sena

SPAIN AT MERCY or
FOOD SPECTATORS

Madrid, Spain. (by maiD.-The In
creasing cost of food supplies in Spain.
which mas resulted in number of food
riots. as reported by cable. is charged
solely to speculation. In 1874 the crops
were better than in previous years.
over the crop of 1913, but notwith-
standing this. prices have mounted SO
high that the government has been
forced to take measures to avoid mo-
nopolies. and has intimated its inten-
ton OF fixing the maximum prices.
Wheat cereals in general, potatoes,
beans and other products have been ex-
ported in great quantities to France
and England. Numerous French
agents have bought beef and vegetables
at prices above normal and Switzer-
land alone last month bought for its
from Spain. All this has caused q
natural crisis which has been felt Sc
verely in the provinces.
The hight prices. added to the fact
that work i'll the factories Is paralyzed
IN almost the whole OF Spain. Is rem
derinS the workman's life impossible.
Public works on the governments ac-
count have been begun in some prov
inces. but. nevertheless. it has not been
possible to eliminate the existing bad
state of affairs. The trouble has
reached its greatest intensity in the
south. Early this month disorders
broke out in Murcia, where groups OF
workmen paraded the streets in hostile
attitude. In Grevillesute more than A.
900 people walked the streets demand
ing bread and work. In Cadiz. Lara
goZa. Lucena. Badajoz Logrono and
Segovia. similar disturbances took
place. In Albacete the crowds pro-
tested to the civil government and the
governor ordered them to he fired up-

wounded as result.
