WHOLE FAMILY APPARENTLY
UNDER MANS INFLUENCE.

Frionds of Mrs. King declare
the departure Of the dead woman's
relatives and their apparent lack OF
interest In an investigation shows
that the almost hypnotic influence
which Means exercised over Mrs.
King, whose Affairs no has managed
for two years. extends even to her
brothers. Meanss control over the
dead woman's sister and another. who
lived In the Same apartment house
with her at No. il25 Park Avenue,
New York. was only slightly less, 1t is
said, than his alleged remarkable in
fluencc over his employer.
Directly after the funeral services
for Mrs. King at Graceland Cemetery
on Tuesday the brothers left for
home. A few OF Mrs. Melyin's friends
succeeded IN talking with her. but she
didn't appear TO think there was
apXthing in connection with her sis
tef's death that needed further OK

"He only was half through the roll"
Means took out $500 note and

the machine.
For n timo Means, or his brotaer.
Alton, drove the car. Later they
hired a negro to do the driving. Mrs.
King was seen about Concord in the
company OF members Of the Means

tention because Of her fashionable at-
tire and the stories concerning her
alleged great wealth.

Would Cut Legislature
Down to SinuIe Body

Lincoln, Jan. 2s-Two proposed
constitutional amendments, one of
which provides for state legislature
of only one body to consist of sixty
members, were offered in the house
today by Mr.. North. His other prop
osition is to have constitutional
amendments submitted to the voters
by having them printed on separate
ballot and that only a majority of
those voting thereon shall be neces-
sary for adoption.
In the measure for unicameral
Legislature it is specified that the state
shall be divided into sixty districts,
one member to be elected from each.
This would mean dividing the cities
Of Lincoln and Omaha into legislative
districts instead of having the Lam
caster and Douglas county members
elected at large.

Teutons Sustain Reverse in
Attempt to Resume Ad-
vance Across Marsh.
OTHER ARENAS ARE QUIET
ASSOCIATED Press War summary


The heaviest fighting now in prog
ress in any of the war areas is on the
Russian front in the Riga sector,
where the Germans recently took the
offensive and drove back the Rus
slams mile and half in the region
Of the Great Tirul marsh that long
has barred the way to Riga for the
German forces.
Attempting again to advance over
the frozen ground which has made
the efforts in this swampy region pos
sible, the Teutonic army has sus-
tanned reverses, according to Petro-
grad today. Northwest of the marsh
they opened heavy artillery fire and
then attacked, but failed to make any
Roadway against the Russian defense.
Elsewhere there has been little but
artillery and patrol fighting. Entire
quiet apparently prevails along the
Roumanian front. owing to the Sc
we're winter weather.

front of about six miles on the north

HOUSE PROPOSES
TO BACK WILSON
IN PEACE STAND
tcoasinasd From P.s. one,

Lcidigh, Hopkins, Beal and McAllistei
all spoke for the bill. They said tina,
the merchants as well as the railroad
employees want such legislation. Mr.
Reynolds. who lives at the railroad
town OF North Platte, said nobody
had urged him to support ii, and. he
was in doubt as to whether the rail.
road men are demanding it or not.
After voting down motion to defer
action, the committee Of the whole
ordered the bill to third reading.
Coursing Meets Opposed.
Rouse Roll No. 80, the bill to pro.
hibit coursing meets at which rab-
bits are chased by dogs, was sent to
third reading. II was FIRST amended
on motion OF Thomas, by cutting out
the part which referred to wild west
shows and exhibitions Of broncho
busting and steer throwing, which
are a feature of frontier festivals and
county fairs held in the western part
OF the state.
Mr.. Liggett proposed to eliminate
rabbit coursing also from the pro-
hibited list, but others declared that
this would practically enasculte the
bill and the motion failed. Mr.. Mcy-
senburg tried to get an amendment
adopted cutting out the penalty for
anyone who lets horse, mule or OK
stand hitched in a public place, ex-
posed to a blizzard or stormy weather
longer than two hours at time. He
wanted the limit raised to FIVE hours.
This was also defeated.
