Police Say Man Admits Wife’s Death First Described Due to Accident; Revealed now During Quarrel Two months of checking by Omaha police under direction of the county attorney’s office late Tuesday afternoon brought a statement from Louis Pelan, 36, whose wife died of a broken neck two months ago. The statement revealed that the woman’s death, first described as occurring after an accidental fall from a chair, followd a family quarrel during which Pelan shoved her off the chair, causing the fatal injury. County Attorney James T. English announced that a manslaughter charge would be filed against Pelan, whose last address was given as 2202 Howard street. The statement was made at the end of a day of questioning participated in by Deputy County Attorney Al Fiedler and Fred Franks. ‘Dizzy Spells’ Mrs. Eleanor Pelan, 33, the wife, died April 3 after supposedly falling backwards from a dining room chair upon which she had been standing while adjusting a window drape. At the time Pelan told police that his wife suffered frequent “dizzy spells” one of which had probably caused her to fall. Pelan said that he had been reading a paper a few feet away at the time, that he had not noticed his wife until she fell. The couple who had been married 14 years and had three children were then living at 4755 South Fifteenth street. At the time of Mrs. Pelan’s death, the three children were visiting their grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. John Hottovy, David City, Neb. Torn Shirt Clue Uncertain of Pelan’s story, police discovered a torn shirt whtih he had been wearing. Pelan said it had been torn in a playful scuffle at the packing plant where he is employed. With the shirt as a clue, police fitted together a chain of circumstances which brought a signed statement from Pelan. “I didn’t mean to hurt her,” Pelan told police at the end of his story which described a family argument. “I never intended to hurt her. I just gave her a shove while she was on the chair.” Fiedler said Pelan’s shirt became torn when it was clutched by Mrs. Pelan during the fall. At the police station Tuesday night, Pelan indicated that he intends to plead guilty.
