OMAHA WOMEN
IMPLICATED IN

Waive Examination Noncha'
Iantly on Charge Of
Stealing Two Seal
skin Coats.

Mrs. "Hazel Reed" one of the two
Omaha women caught in the act o.
lifting" two sealskin coats, each
worth $780, at the Beno store, Coun.
Gil Bluffs, just before closing time
Wednesday evening, was released
from the county jail Friday after
noon when friends in Omaha came
forward with $1,000 cash bond.
Both women were held to the dis
trict court grand jury under $1,000
bonds after hearing In police court
Thursday morning, but the younger,
who gave the name of Mrs. Mabel
Miller had friends at hand who fur
nished her bond before she left the
police station.
Known to Be Omaha Woman.
"Mrs. Miller" is only "a years old,
pretty and small in stature. Her
companion, Hazel Reed is a large
and regal looking woman, and ad-
mitted she is 80 years old. She in
sisted that her home is IN Kansas
City, but it was definitely learned
yesterday that she lives IN Omaha
and is quite we'll known. The names
given are believed TO be fictitious.
1t is bel eved the elder woman de-
1iberately planned the theft. She at
tended the style show" given by the
women OF St. Paul Episcopal church
at the Auditorium building in Coun-
Gil Bluffs Tuesday night and greatly
admired the two sealskin coats that
were part of the Beno exhibit there.
1t is believed she induced her
younger companion to embark in the
THEFT enterprise and that both re-
turned for that purpose. They
might have succeeded in getting out
Of the store with the loot without
detection if they had taken the ele-
vator instead Of walking down the
stairway rom the second floor.
Edge of Coats Showed.
They had provided themselves
with lightweight raincoats, which
they carried over their arms, and
used these coats to conceal the
Others. Floor Manager Madsen
happened TO be standing near the
foot of the stairs as the women de-
scended. The raincoats concealed
the tops, but not the undersides Of
the sealskins, and Madsen was con-
siderably astonished ITO see two
women carrying coats in such
manner. They were never out Of
his sight after he followed them out
OF the. store until they dropped the
coats four blocks from the store.

mob marched to the police station
and demanded the detective be
turned over to them, returned
Thursday. He has not resumed his
duties as an officer, however, SUIT
ton spends most of his time sitting
around the police station.
Neither Commissioner Ringer or
Police Chief Eberstein have de-
clared whether the detective would
be put back to work. Sutton is said
to have become frightened when he
was charged with shooting a man
in the court house and fled when
the crowd demanded that he be
reckoned with. He was said to
have been hiding in Council Bluffs
tour days.
Deploring the fact that so many
women took part in the demon-
stration Sunday night, and urging
that they be arrested and punished
to the fullest extent, ]. S. Hammond
has written letter to The Bee.
Since women have been placed on
political equality with men, Mr..
Hammond declares, the sentiment
tality about furnishing them should
be put aside.
"One of the most disgraceful
things about the mob outrage Sum
young girls and women as specta-
tors urging the men to murder and
commit arson. The papers have
reproduced pictures of the mob
burning the rigger and nearly every
face in this mob can be readily
recognized, and among them are
two or three women.
Every woman who can be iden-
tilted as having been in that mob
on Sunday night should be arrested.
The influence of woman under
those circumstances encouraging
the men to commit crimes is 10
times more powerful than the infu-
ence of any man would be, and the
women should be made to realize
this.
History has demonstrated that in
all bloddy fighting, revolutions and
mob activities the women are more
blood thirsty and ferocious than the
men. Heretofore there has been !
mawkish sentimentality about pun
lshlng women, but slnce women have
been placed on a political equality
with men they should be held re-
sponsible for their actions as the
men are.
"The writer sincerely hopes that
at least some of the women who
were active in the mob of Sunday
night will be apprehended aud placed
in Jail and face trial with the men.
1t is notirous that woman is more
under the tyranny of her emotions
than is man. A few penitentiary
sentences for the wild women
whose lack of modesty, womanli-
ness and decency made such a sorry
exhibit Sunday night will go far to
discourage a repetition of such con-
duct in the future.

SENATOR REED
WELL RECEIVED
BY NEbRASkANS
Lincoln Audience AppIauds
Missouri Solon Opposing
Ratification of Peace
Treaty.

Lincoln, Neb., Oct. 3.-Speakine
at the City auditorium here Friday
night in opposition to the league OF
nations, Senator James A. Reed
democrat of Missouri, said the
league would breed rather than pre-
vent wars.
For the United States to become a
party to the league, he asserted,
would mean that Americans would
"have to pour out their blood in
controversies 5000 miles from our
shores" Declaring that President
Wilson had said that the assembly
of the league was only a debating
society,"" the Missouri senator de-
scribed the assembly as a powerful
part of the league and declared that
it elected four of the nine members
of the leagues council.
As a member of the league the
United States, Senator Reed said,
would undertake to respect and pre-
serve against external attack the ex-
isting political independence of
members of the league.
This, he declared. would be an alb
solute contract, and the United
States would have to defend against
attack every member of the league,
whether "they are right or wrong"
If the province of Shantung were CIV
Ell to Japan and Shantung rebelled
and China went to her aid the United
States would be bound by the con-
tract to "use her blood in the quar-
rels of those yellow men" the speak
er said.
A crowd which comfortably filled
the Lincoln auditorium gave Sena-
tor Reed respectful attention during
an address which occupied nearly
two hours, at times applauding
some of his declarations.

officer declared the articles were

away.
Many policemen surrendered
their guns without being asked by
the members of the mob. The boy
who led the crowd to the negro's
hiding place on the roof of the
court house declared he took a re-
volver from a policeman and an
other officer offered to give him his
weapon. He declared one police
man, who was stationed in the court
house volunteered to tell him where
the negro could be found apd at
the same time offered to give away
his club and gun.
Throw Away Badges.
Men in uniform and officers in
plain clothes were seen to throw
away their revolvers and badges.
Others surrendered them at the
simple bidding of members of the
mob. One police captain stood
with fear in the midst of
a crowd of shouting men on the,
Farnam street side of the court
house. He was seen to fire his re-
yolver once as the crowd surged
towards him.
Here it is boys. l am through"
he pleaded with the crowd. II am
sick of the work. Do not hurt me.
Take my gun and badge"
The police captain still is on the
force.
A short while after he escaped
from the fury of the mob, the same
police captain stood in the Harney
street entrance of the court house
talking to Police Commissioner
Ringer. The commissioner and
captain were standing here when the
negro was led from the court house.
Cant we take him away from

to say to the captain.
