CHICAGO, June 1. Hot in
other places, cool here, thanks
to the big lake, cooling winds
that blow over it. Gigantic
buildings going up, including
one with more floor space than
in any other ever built on
earth.. James Simpson, who
owns Marshall Field & Co., is
building that,; with railroad
tracks under it, the Chicago
river beside it, leading out to
the lakes and oceans.
Chicago's "I will" hag not
died out. Buildings that amaz
ed the world by their heighth
, and size a few years ago are
coming down to make room for
bigger buildings. In public
improvements, Chicago is cease
lowly active, with parks, play
grounds, bathing beaches that
set an example to other cities.
Great areas are reclaimed from
the lake. And the scheme for
development of the lake front
exceeds, in scope and beauty,
anything done in. America.

1929 legislative act creating two

before the regular election of No

tainty today when the supreme
court orally handed down an opin
ion upholding the ballot title pre
pared by Attorney General Van
Winkle in the Woodward referen

Since the referendum petitions
have been completed and filed with
the secretary of state the act is
held up until voted on by the peo
pie and Governor Patterson will
not in the meantime appoint tliei.if Vcrai ornuinna. hut sh
Judges to fill the two positions. j
The supreme court also upheld
the attorney general s ballot titles
in the excise tax referendum and
in the initiative attack on fraternal
insurance companies. Completed
petitions in the excise tax referen
dum have not yet. been filed, but
it is understood they will be com
pleted and filed by next Tuesday,
tho final date allotted by law, so
the decision of the supreme court
means that a special election will
be held June 28. this year. Tho
legislature provided that if the ref

referendum is the final move hold
ing up that act a full year. Had
the referendum not been Invoked
on tho income tax the state tax
commission would have taken it
Into consideration in making the
state tax levy next December. Now.
however, it will be disregarded nt
that time, but should the people
approve it in the election of No

levy on the Incomes of both 1929

of this opinion today, but admitted

CHICAGO, June 1. iff) Ferdi
nand Pruess, the maniac who shot
three men dead and wounded
three others while in a drunken
frenzy yesterday, was decapitated
today by a Chicago & Northwest
ern railroad train. A bpdy found
on the right of way waa identified
positively by a fishing license is
sued to Preuss, and police bellevb
the man, sobered over night, real
ized the tragedy of yesterday and
committed suicide.
The condition of Preuss' body
indicated he had lain on the track
and waited for the Ira In to run
over him, police said.
Preuss, a war veteran and ex
pert marksman, killed two police
men and a civilian yesterday and
wounded two policemen and two
civilians with a pump shotgun.
The police were members of a
siiuad sent to arrest him after
neighbors heard hint threaten to
kill his. wife.
John Lee Con ley, leader of the
defective squadron, was the first
to fall before the madman's on
iHlaught. After mortally wounding

fell dead.
Had l)e(!!y Aim
Preuss acquired a deadly aim
during the World war, where he
gained honorable mention for his
marksmanship. He went mad late
yesterday, his wife said, after a
drink debauch that began three
weeks ago. As early as yesterday
morning he warned neighbors to
"keep your heads Inside tho win
dows if you don't want them
blown off."
Police got a call that a man
was quarreling with his wife and
threatening to kill her. Policeman
John Lee Con ley's detective squad
went to tho north side flat where
lived Preuss and his wife.
Tho , houe that had been quiet
when they approached echoed
with the roar of a pump gun as a
charge of shot crashed through a
window and tore into Con ley's
chest. A second roar and Hag
berg fell.
Policeman Joseph J. Muiphy,
Conley's chauffeur, who had re
mained in the car, seized a shot
gun and started to the help of
the other policemen. He had
taken less fhan a dozen steps when
ieu1 pump gun blazed through
front window and Murphy fell,
badly wounded.
A second later Gus Karos, who
lived three doors away from the
Preuss home, and John Chorazak.
another neighbor, both attracted
by the shooting, met where Mur
phy had fallen. Karos had rushed
out to meet his blind brother-in-law,
Rudolph Krusche, who had
been to a nearby store and was
expected home.
Another shot and Chorazak, who
was standing not ten feet from
the window, fell dead. Karos
jumped to shield with his body
his brother-in-law, who was just
passing the house. As ho did so
the fifth shell in Preuss' gun was
discharged and struck him In the
back.
Kmntlcs Gun
Preuss, in a fury, pressed the
trigger again and the hammer fell
on an empty chamber. Police be
lieve that tho only reason Krusche,
the blind man, was not numbered
among the victims.
Tho slayer a second later rushed
out of tho rear door of his home,
stood cursing the bodies of Conley
and ilagberg, and then fled Into
an alley after taking the police
man's shotgun and, It Is believed,
his revolver.
In the alley. Preuss met Frank
Vndlcka. who was running toward
the scene of the shooting. Vod
icka turned and ran into a nar
ro w pa ssa ge wa y w hen he saw
Preusf., foaming at the mouth and
aiming the shotgun pointhlank at
him. Preuss fired one shell, then
threw the weapon at Vodlcka as
the latter fled. The drink-crazed
man was seen to take a pistol
from his belt, wave it wftd'y, and
run down the alley. That was the
last seen of him.
Mrs. Rose Preuss, the slayer's
wife, was found in the home of a
neighbor, where she had taken
refuge when her husband fired
two shots at her before the police
arrived.
Physirinns said Karos had been
wounded 14 times and that he
probably would die.

CHICAGO, June 1. (A1) -Oliver
N. Olson, a lawyer, 52 years old,
was taken for a ride' last night,
beaten so badly that a leg and six
ribs were broken and then dumped
out for dead in a ditch. Only the
fact that ho "played dead," he
said, saved his life.
Olsoi was lured from his
Wheat on. 111., home into an auto
mobile on the pretext that a friend
needed him at the Villa Park po
lice station. Reaching a quiet spot
on the road, the men stopped the
car on the plea of tire trouble.
Olson wus struck down from be
hind and then was attacked by
both men, one of whom kept say
ing, "Kill him."
After he had been thrown into
the ditch, Olson said, the men ad
vanced upon him as though to
continue the beating, but he kept
motionless and the men, believ
in him dead, went away. A mo
torcycle officer found the lawyer
shortly afterward.
Olson could advance no motive
