bership in the Republican state con-
vention in 1890 as a delegate from
Keith county. He lost by a vote of
20 to 10, mastering this narrow mar
gin despite the fact that he had re-
sided in the county less than six
months against long residence of his
opponent who was, two years later
destined to be the Republican nomi-
nee for congress in that district.
He led a a.campaign before the legis-
lature of 1891 for an irrigation law.
The legislature did not enact the bill.
But again in 1898, Mr.. Howell had his
bill introduced. This time it was killed
by tie vote. Once more he tried, in
1895, and this time the bill passed
without dissenting vote in the state
senate and with but eight in the lower
house. Mr.. Howell was appointed
state engineer to work out the pro-
visions of the new law.
This campaign now long forgotten
was a significant forerunner of others
which, from 10 to 80 years later, agi-

policies. @
r. B. Howell was born in Adrian,
Mich, where his father was a lawyer
and later a judge.
He was educated in the public
schools of Adrian, Mich, and at II
won an appointment to Annapolis
Naval academy. He was graduated
from Annapolis in 1885, receiving here
the training as a civil and hydraulic
engineer which was later to serve the
people of Omaha so well when he ap-
piled it to solving the problems Of the
city's water supply. Almost immedi-.
ately after graduation, Mr.. Howell
developed bronchial affection the
result Of an attack of pneumonia
when boy-which resulted in his
being invalided home, and little later,
forced his resignation from the navy.
He was given a physicians order to
ego West" and he came to Nebraska.
Chance led Mr.. Howell to Omaha.
He had applied to s. Z. Wiley, general
manager Of the American Water
Works company Of Illinois, for posi-
tion as an engineer in some western
city. Mr.. Wiley said he had nothing
!, to offer, that the only job in sight

was paying only $50 a month. "Ill
take it," said Howell. The job was in
Omaha, where the company then was
rebuilding it's Omaha plant.
After year of this, Mr.. Howell
accepted employment with Mr.. Wiley
in outside engineering work. From
that time to this he has always either
conducted business of his own or
been an executive in the service of the
public.
In these early years, Mr.. Howell
was much in western Nebraska, where
he saw the need for irrigating the
semi-arid lands. He developed a plan
for state irrigation department and
for laws which would encourage irri-
cation canals. On this he made his
first political campaign, seeking mem

people of Nebraska. In all that time
he has ever been distinguished as a
man Of positive force, of endless
energy and resource, of high courage
and of constant devotion to policies
sanely progressive.
And these battles-for what and
for whom have they been fought? In
the early niaeties, Mr.. Howell cam
paigned for laws that would permit
the irrigation Of Nebraska's arid
lands. Ten years later he began the
long fight to lower the cost of water
in Omaha by breaking the grip Of
monopoly through the agency of mu-
nicipal ownership.
That won, in 1912, he turned a
part of his attention to larger field
and was in the front rank Of those
who carried the banner of progressive
policies for alleviating the social and
industrial ills of the country. In later
years he occupied himself with further
development of municipal ownership

DAUGHERTY READY
TOPRESS CHARGES
IN THEATRE CRASH
All Powers of Government at
Work on Tragedy in Which
81 Lost Lives.

WASHINGTON. Jan. Sl.-All the
powers of the Federal Government
will be exercised to probe the Knick-
erbocker Theatre catastrophe, it was
learned to-day at the Department OF
Justice.
If the investigation shows faulty or
cheap construction and lax building
inspection methods, those responsible
will be charged with criminal negl-
gence and relentlessly prosecuted,
Attorney General Daugherty has de-
termined
Six army and navy construction
engineers will investigate the con-
struction OF the theatre for the De-
partment of Justice. Their report
will be placed before Federal Grand
Jury, which already has started an
investigation.
A Coroner's jury has been I'M
paneled and will start its inquiry
within lew days. Local building
inspectors have made preliminary
tests.
The prevailing opinion of engineers,
such as Col. Charles Keller. District
Commissioner, is that the weight OF
the snow on the roof would not have
caused the roof to cave in If thsrs
had not Leen some fundamental de-
feet in construction.
Meanwhile. the Senate is expected
to adopt to-day a resolution of Scna-
tor Capper. Kansas, which calls FOR
an inquiry by the Senate District
Committee, particularly into reports
that a ring of profiteering construc-
tors in league with local building in
spectors has been putting up CHEAP
and dangerops buildings here.
The demand for complete in
vestigation is most iRsistent over
the stunned and saddened city which
is burying ten of the dead to-day.
Revision of the mortality lists has
brought the number of dead down to
ninety-seven.
The hospitals, in which there still
are siXty"two injured, had no new
deaths over night, although a dozen
are in critical condition.
Walter Reed Hospital reported that
Second Assistant Postmaster General
Shaughnessy, while still in a critical
condition, was "holding his own and

from Iavcrnc Davies, writer and \.

Under the examination Of her own

made in her husbands complaint and
admitted that she had paid $50 for an
imitation pearl necklace for which
Harrison is alleged to have paid
$50. 600
In addition to the imitation pearls
Mrs. Davies brought forth a smaller
necklace, which she said was real an
freely admitted Mr.. Harrison hna
paid 5000 for it as birthdy prescn;

"What lave you TO say TO the fact
that Mr.. Harrison appears as the
Euarantor of the lease Of Your apart
ment?' counsel asked NJ. Davies.
THAT merely was another cour-
tesy with which Mrs Harrison was
familiar she declared. 81 don
know why it is, but it is fact that
woman cannot lease Il high class
apartment in New York without a
guarantor. Mr.. Harrison accommo-
dated me with this favor"
Mrs. Davies showed indignation i'm
the statement of an elevator boy that
Mr.. Harrison had been seen leaving
her apartment by the back stairs
There was nothing unusual about
that she asserted. 1--WE only lived
up two flights and it often was quicker

is the most severe shock we have re-
corded in years.
The first shock was registered at
SPA A. NJ. 1t continued on a large
scale until S29 o'clock. Then it
diminished somewhat, but within a
few minutes the seismograph again
was starting it's record of u gigantic
earth disturbance.
The disturbance was SO violent that
it put the recording apparatus at the
Harvard University Seismograph Sta
ton, Cambridge, Mass, temporarily
out of commission. Its scene was
computed roughly at 2,77S miles from
Cambridge by Prof J. b. Wood
worth, in what direction he was un-
able to say.
Vibrations began at S.24 A. NJ. and
at $40 became so violent, Prof.
Woodworth said, that the needles
which register them were thrown off
the drum on which the vibrations are
recorded.
n Cornell University, Ithaca. n. ".
the tremors were so pronounced that
the registering needles were thrown
off the apparatus. The shock was
described by observatory attaches as
lone of the biggest earthquakes we
have had in a long time"
The unusually severe earthquake
was recorded also on the sesmo-
graph at the University of Chicago
The first wave was recorded at 723
A. NJ. and was followed by another
at 1872 A. NJ. The distance was ap-
proximately 1870 miles from Chi
cago.
Dr. Chester A. Reeds. observer in
charge in the American Museum Of
Natural History said it was his belief
that the earthquake was somewhere
in the region of the Panama Zone.
The seismograph at the museum in
dicated he said, the disturbance was
several thousand miles from New
York.
THE first waves were recorded at
$40 o'clock this morning" said DR..
Reeds. The second 6 minutes later,
and the main waves or shock began
at S.33 and continued for half hour.
At 11.30 o'clock the needle still con-
! tinued to oscillate."
The first shock was recorded on the
seismograph of Fordham University
here at 8.25 this morning. The main
| shock began at 8.3S and lasted six
minutes, according to Prof. Lynch OF
the Department of Physics, At 10
o'clock, when the last notation was
taken. the quake was still in
progress.
Indications were that the disturb
ance was 2,700 or $500 miles south
and southwest This line would pass
through Southern Colombia or North
ern Ecquador. In all probability, Prof.
Lynch said, the earthquake was out
