Admits Hired to
Kill Young Girl

Omaha. Neb., July 23.-'I killed
that little girl Give me the money
you promised. / threw her body on
the banks of Mosquito creek" whis-
pered Edward Stein to Joseph Tirro,
of Omaha. The room was dark, and
all was silence save the muffled
breathing of the two alleged con-
spirators. Mosquito creek is twenty
miles east of Council Bluffs.
Tirro, who is proprietor of the
Omaha Candy kitchen. was arrested
and taken to the Central police sta
tion, where he is being held by Chief
of Detectives Dunn on a $1,000 bond.
Tirro denies his guilt under the
charge which has been placed against
him for conspiracy to kill.
The alleged conspiracy Is said to
have a history dating back over nine
months. when Emma Housechild, a
17-year-old girl. was first employed
by Tirro as a clerk. Tirro is report
ed to have fallen madly In love with
the girl a short time after she began
working for him. The girl rejected
all of his attentions, and for this rea-
son Tirro is alleged by Stein to have
sought her death.

campaign to open almost at once.
Already there is said to be growing
interest IN political questions
throughout the state, and plans now
are being made by candidates already
in the field to protect their interests
at the November precinct meetings
and at the county conventions to
closely follow these meetings.
One of the interesting features OF
the republican campaign in South
Dakota centers around the office OF
governor and the identity of the
nominee for this office. Gov. Nor
beck is serving his last term as gov
ernor and is a candidate for nomi-
nation and election to the United
States senate.
One of the leading republican can
didates for nomination as his success
sor in the office of governor is w
H. McMaster, of Yankton. Another
republican candidate for nomination
to the office of governor is Allen r
Fellows, a business man of Siou,
Falls. Another candidate is Car
Gunderson, formerly of Vermillon
but now of Mitchell.

CONSIDERED BY FOREIGN
RELATIONS COMMITTEE
TO ENFORCE PROHIBITION
SENATOR STERLING, OF COM
MITTEE, WILL STAND PAT ON
DRASTIC PROVISIONS
The Peace Treaty

Washington, ID. c., July 23.-The
principle of open covenants openly
arrived at is to be applied to the
senate foreign relations committees
consideration of the peace treaty, ac-
cording to plans of administration
senators today. Usually the commit
tee sessions are secret.
Senator Jones, of New Mexico,
said he will call up at once his reso-
luton providing that all committee
sessions be open to the public.
Senator Lodge, chairman of the
committee and leading republican
member, said that he would not fight
the resolution. Senator Jones de-
clared the republican senators dared
not vote against open sessions, since
they have assailed President Wilson
for the secrecy of the peace confer
ence. The time for hearings is in
definite.

Order to Connect
Telephone Lines

Pierre, July 23.-The railroad
commission has ordered resumption
of service between the Hyde county
telephone exchange at Highmore. and
small rural lines running in there, at
the prevailing contract rates. There
were two cases before the commits
sion, one on a disagreement as to
prices, and the other between the
Highmore company and a small
country line wherein connections
were refused the latter when the Of
ficers refused to pay money due the
town exchange without an itemized
statement, which was refused. AS a
result the patrons on this line have
been unable to call Highmore or con-
Meeting lines since May. The order
of the commission is to straighten
out this tangle and prevent its re-
turn.

MANY FIRES
UNDER CONTROL
IN NORTHWEST
STATES FOREST RESERVES
CRITICAL, HOWEVER

Spokane, Wash, July 23.-Forest
fire conditions in northern Idaho,
western Montana and eastern Wash
ington continued critical today with
several threatening blazes, according
to federal forest service officials and
timber protective association war
dens.
The most serious fire was report
ed in the Pack river valley between
Sand Point and Hope. Ida, where
thirty-five to forty square miles have
been burned over by flames that were
within two miles of the Great North
ern railway tracks and three miles
from Naples, Ida. Neither was be-
lieved to be in danger, however
Between 10,000,OOO and 10000
000 feet of white pine timber has
been destroyed by this fire and the
loss is estimated as high as $50. 900.
Only rain can stop the fire, it was
declared, and the only hope is 70
guide the fire away from the richest
timber in its path.
One man was arrested at Sand
Point in connection with alleged in
cendiary fires and it is expected that
another man will be arrested. Two
fire fighters were arrested at Kooska
charged with accepting government
transportation and refusing to join
a fire fighting crew.
The most serious situation in Mon.
tana is in the Blackfoot forest where
four large blazes are being fought
Many fires in the three states were
checked or put under control today
and they were thought to be beyond
the likelihood of increased danger
unless more unfavorable weather
conditions developed. The high
winds of last week have abated.

Jim River Valley
Crops Are Poor

Pierre, July 23.-Reports from ad-
justers of the state hail insurance
department indicate that there will
be an average of SO per cent crop
failure in the Jim river valley this
summer. Most of this will be in
wheat, oats and other small grain be-
ing only slightly affected and corn
in most cases coming through in fine
shape. Blight, some black rust. and
in some cases joint worms are re-
sponsible for the loss. The north
eastern part of the state and around
Codington county has suffered no
particular loss; there is no disease
reported west of the river; crops in
the Rosebud country are good. The
Missouri valley generally is in good
shape. But the valley of the JIM.
centering around Huron and Mitchell,
is entertaining some bad epidemics.
