Towa's Oity Elections SBhow Heavy Losscs By the Democrats. A REVIEW OF THE RESULT. Tho Coroner's Inquest on the Body of Constable Logan Develops Some Strange Facts— Other lowa News, The Municipal Elections, Dres Moives, Ia., March 8.—[Special Tele- gram to the B ‘I'ie result of the munie- ipal eleetions y rday show general repub- lican zains throughout the state and in some localities very marked republican victories. Two reasons are ascribed for this. The first 18 the general dissatisfaction with the work of the demoeratie administration, now that it has finished half of its term, and more par- ticularly the dissatisfaction on account of the demoeratic party’s eourse in congress and the vresident’s hostility to union soldiers. The old soldler element i3 very strong in Towa and takes an active hand in all politics. The president’s vetoes of pension bills and the ar- rogance in power of the copperheads and ex- els have stirred up the old soidiers to ry active efforts for the success of the republican ty, even in the municipal elections, whereas ordinarily com- paratively little partisan interest is taken in city elections, ‘This year republicans pretty generally seemed to think it was time to go on record and so have taken a very earnest part. They feel that the administration has ')eull on trial half of its time and that now is a good chance for republican lowa, at least, to bring in a verdiet. The other fact that contributed to republican success quite Iargely was the operation of the new regis- tration law. It requires every man who ex- pects to vote to be registered some days in advance, and in rezistering he is put through an investigation that is very thorough and calculated to prevent fraud. This registra- tion law undoubtedly cost the demo- crats several thousand votes by shutting oft the unnaturalized, the non-residents and the general hangers-on who usually are on hand to vote the democrallc ticket. It reduced the fraudulent vote to a minimum, and to that extent benefitted the republican party and was of u corresponding disadvan- take to the democrats. In this city the republicans made unex- vected gaing, The only vacancies to be filled ere in the board of aidermen, the republi- ns olecting five out of six, carrying some wards with larger majorities than ever ‘The republicans also elected the whole or a majority of the candidates in the fol- lowing cities: Cedar Rapids, Muscatine, Fairtield, where they elected their entire tickets for the first ti lowa City, where they elected a republican mayor for the Lirst time In many years; Stuart, where they secured entire control of the city for the first time in three years; Ottumwa, where very substantial gains were made; Toledo, McGregor, Belle Plaine, Grinnell, Carson, Fort Dodge, Mount Ple nt, Creston and Greentield. The democrats were successful in Davenport, Dubuque and partinlly o in Couneil Bluffs, though some of the candi- dates there were on a non-partisan ticket; also in Sioux City, Burlington, Fort Madi- son, Maquoketa and LeMars, In the follow- ing cities the elections were non-partisan or involved local 1ssues to the exclusion of gen- eral politics: Clinton, Marshalltown, erry, Mason City, Atlantic and Humboldt, In the latter place the issue was whether the city should license billiard rooms or nof, the re- sult being in favor of billiards. In Marshall- town the labor candidate for mayor was elected. The Killing of Logan, March 8.—|Special Tele- 'he killing of Constable Logan last night while he was making an ar- rest in the wholesale drug store of Hurlbut, Hess & Co., has been the subject of excited comment all day. At 2 this afternoon the coroner’s jury began {ts inquest and sat with closed doors till 6 o’clock. The only witnesses examined were the employes of the store where Logan was killed and tho policemen who were called in after the tragedy. The important fact was developed in_the exam- Ination that Logan was shot twice, one ball entering from the front and one from the rear, apparently in- dicating that after he was first” shot he turned to leave the roomand was shot from behind by some person connected with the drug store, three or four of them being present. Still more important was the testi- ony of the first Yollc\-mnn who saw Logan after he was killed, He testified thathe found Logan with a self-cockinz revolver iu his hand, his finger on the trigger, but nota single chamber empty, thus giving strong evidence that Logan never fired a shot, but was killed by some one connected with the store who fired to kill. Campbell, a teamster for the house who stood by when the shoot- ing was done, was unable to testify that Logan fired first. All of ‘these things together with the fact that the ~dead Logan was alone with the employes of the store for some time—not known—before any policeman arrived, and that four empty cartridges were picked up on the floor by the police, leads to agood deal of comment and suspicion that the dead man was not killed in self-defense. At 6 o’clock the coroner’s jury n‘f)urtell that they found that Logan came to his death from two pistol shots fired by Joseph Rowe (the employe now in custody), but that Rowe acted in self- defense in shooting him. The verdict, taken in connection with the short time spent in the investigation, and the character of tne evidence presented, occasioned much surprise. Immediately on its announcement Constable Frank Pierce arrested Rowe on a charge of murder in the first degree, and started with him to the north part of the city for a warrant of commitment from a justice there, There Is much feeling in that part of the city against the prisoner, where the dead man lived, and an inaignation meeting will be held for a public expression. Some ugly threats are now being ilts may possibly foliow before morni The friendsof Logan think he was mu dred ~while trying to enforce the prohibitory law. It has been developed since the shooting that every one of the em- ployes of tlurlbut, less & Co. have gone armed since the last load of liquor con- signed to them was seized and were probably all armed when Logan entered the store lust night to make an arrest. towa Supreme Court Decisions.

The Fiftieth Congress Likely to Be Called Together in Beptember, VARIOUS REASONS ASSIGNED. The President Copsidering Names For the Inter-State Commerce Com- mission—A Seramble For Senate Seats. A Sepntember Session Probable. WASHINGTON, March 8-—[Special Tele- gram to the B ~I1t is generally conceded in official and congressional circles that there will be an extra s3ssion of the Fiftieth con- gress called early next fall. Predictions to this effeet are heard everywhere by your cor- respondent. The experience of the past two winters in congress lias shown very clearly that the interests of the country have become altogether too vast and complicated to be thoroushly looked after and kept within the time afforded by the regular session. Much of the tirst or long session is usually devoted for the promulgation of business for the sec- ond or short session and business thus de_ ferred from one year to another. In many cases business of the most urgent importance is dumped into the last week or ten days of cony@ss to be but half done, or badly done, or not done at all. Enough unfinished work is left over by its predecessor to engage the attention of the Fiftieth congress till the 1st of August. There are various measures that led to become laws, to postpone which for another year is grossly unjust to many citizens and seriously damag- ing to the interests of the govern- ment Itself. The general deficiency bill is one of them, the river and harbor bill, and certain expenditures under it, another. Ev- erything which the late conference left in a crude and incomplete condition could be dis- posed of, it isargued, by an extra session, Much lezislation preliminary to the regular meeting in December could he gotten into shape for intelligent and early consideration, ‘The new members, and there are 130 of these, could in the meantime be made conversant with the nature of their duties and de benefit from a four months’ preparatory d cipline, Great pressure will be made upon the president to call the Fiftieth congress to- gether in the latter part of September. *1 think most assuredly that there ought to be an extra session,” said Mr. Henderson, of fown, to-night in ra - talk with your corre- spondent. *“Things never have been left so botched and muddled as they were by this last congress. The failure of the river and harbor bill has called up in arms the people in all these sections of the country which were affected by the measure proposed. The failure of the deficiency bill, which cannot fairly be charged to the president, will only be felt in certain quarters, but it is a large thing, you know. to have $3,(00,000 locked up in the treagury which ought to have been expended and _ was expected in the couritry, ' As a matter of fact, there are two or thrae of the other mpm’og: - tion bills which should, never have been signed, containing as they did jobs put in at the close of the sessign, Ilowover, 1 have no idea that there will Be an/extra session, and several of the demofratic leaders to whom [ talked just before congress adjourned put no stock in the rumors of anextra session which were then afloat. Eyen ivere an extra ses- sion to be called it 13 dpubtful whether it would do anytuing' {0 effect the purpose for which it was called. ” The future of the de- neiency bill would not perhaps in itself be suflicient to necessitate the calling together orthe Fiftieth congress, but it is another straw added to a number: of matters which tend to make one very' desirable.” THE INTER-STATECOMMISSION. The president is anxious to appoipt the five members of the amter-state commission a8 s00n ds possible, and’proposes to devote this week to consideration of _the names al- ready submitted to lim. Inquiry at the white house shows that none of the slates thus far prepared have been sanctioned in any way by the executive, and as a matter of fact he has not yet tendered a single position to a member of either of the great political parties. It Is his ex) ion, however, to bo able to solve all perple: by the early part of next week and have tho board in working order when the bill goes into effect, April 1, 1887, It is well known here, however, that & strong influence is at work looking to_the appointment of ex-Senator Windom, of Min- nesota, as one of the members of the board, A SCRAMBLE FOR SEATS, ‘There has been a general scramble for de- sirable seats in the senate chamber since the 4thof March, and the next ion of con gress will find a decidedly d _condition of affairs. The long paragraph senator from New York, W. M. Evarts, succeeds to the chair of ex-Senator McMillan, which was in the second row of the center ot the republican side. Senator Platt, of Connecticut, has given up an obscure seat to assume_the one formerly occupled by Mahone, of Virginia, while Senator Blair, of New "(\lll[lShll‘U._nll& education bill fame, has left the repubiican side and gone over to the center aisle among the democrats. 1e will hereafter occufiy the chair which held the bonanza senator—Kair of Nevada. Just in front of Senator Blair was tne seat of the love-stricken Jones,of Florida, which has now been assigned to a senator very popular with the Iadies—J. C, 8. Black- burn, of Kentucky. FREDERICK FOR SERGEANT-AT-ARMS, Among the outgoing ¢ongressmen is Hen- Jamin Todd Frederick; who was elected as a democrat to_represent the Fifth Iowa dis- trict in the Forty-eighth and Forty-ninth con- gresses, He was compelied, however, to con- test the seat in the Forty-eighth conuress and it was only given to him on the last day of congress, March 4, 15%. He was re-clected to the Forty-ninth congress and his term ex- pired on Friday last. Mr. Frederick sald to-day that he would return home the latter part of the week and return again next fall 10 enter the contest for the office of sei t- at-arms of the house of represents acainst John P, Leedom, of Ohio.

While the room was filled with sympathisers of both sexes a blonde little woman bent over the coftin and burst into loud lamentations and, with eclasped hands and streaming eyes, she shrieked: ‘*“They murdered her: was murdered by those hangmen., Grin- nell and Gary were her executioners; she in her coffin, her husband In ffill—hm)l vietims of the capitalistic blood- hounds.” ‘The people present became highly wrought up, and during the remainder of the day in the death chamber there was no ces- sation of the curses against ‘‘those hang- nen.” Before evening a r‘nn?’ of the Arbeiter eitung arrived containing an article laring that ~ Mrs, Neebe had dled from a broken heart caused by the convicting of her husband, The article concluded as follows: *She and our friend Oscar Neebe are victims of a capitalistic band of conspirators known as the eitizens tionand of their tools--Grinnell & They, in conjunction with an odious, lying ‘:rcs\(inu‘ serving enemies of the people, ave murdered a brave woman and madoe children not of age orphans. ‘They will reap the curse of the present and contempt of coming generations.”” The sidewalk in front of Neebe's house was crowded with excited people. A committee had been formed to make arrangements for the funeral and they decided {o postpona it, if possible, until Sun= day, and make it the oceasion of a socialistic demonstration, Neebe Can Attend. Cr1cAGo, March 8.—Oscar Neebe, the an- archist, will be permitted to attend the fu- neral of his wife, who died from apoplexy yesterday. Sheriff Watson wrote a letter to ono of Neebe's friends making such request, in which he says: *‘[n reply to your letter 1 beg to say that I can see no objection to Neebe attending the funeral of nis wife, and 1 will send an oflicer with him for that pur- pose if the friends will notify me when the funeral will take place. It seems to me that, under the circumstances, every one ought to sympathize with him in hisbereave- ment.
