B. JACQUEMIN & - The Leaden Charge of a Preachor. The trial of Rev. D, M. Helmick for the Killing of B, B. Palmer bogan yesterday morning, the whole of the preceding d being taken up in the securing of a jury. Yestorday District Attorney Organ made the opening address on behalf of the state. it was an unimpassioned stutement of the facts expected to be proved, and the only question was whother the defendant was jus- tified in the shooting as w matter of self do- fense. He claimed that it would be shown that there was much bitterness of feeling between Helmick and Palmer; that the preacher had gone to Mrs. Porter with sto. rios derogatory of Palmer, who was about to become wedded to Mrs. Por- ter's daughter, These statemonts b, me known to Palmer, who was naturaliy angry, and that the two men meeting on the screets one day had o war of words, and almost came to blows. Ou the Saturday nicht pre- ceding the shooting a number of boys went to Helmick's house and annoyed him with throwing eggs. On the following Monday tie defendant went to the station agent at Weston and borrowed & revolver, saying he mght have use for it. He raturned to Neola about noon, and that very evening Palmor was shot by him, ‘I'he diatrict attorney pro- ceeded to give the circamstal s of the ody as ho expocted to prove it. Tne oy, or young_mes, of whom Palmer was onv, Went o the preacher's houso armed only with Thoy had no other weapon no intention of domg him any further ipjury. Two of tho number, Pal and Oliver, went to the barn with tho intention of getting the preacher’s horse, taking 1t into the front yard and tying it there, and when the preacher should rcturn home he would be thus led into a scarch for his horse, and thus become u boiter target for thoir eggs. Whilo at the barn the preacher returned, atd as he shouted out for thom to come out of the barn ho fired the fatal shot. Palmer jived until tho next_afternoon. Wiile not justifying tho act of the young men, yet the attorney insisted that Helmick's life was not in danger, and he had no such grounds for fear os justified him in shooting. Attorney McCabe opened for the defense. Ho went at it energetically, and therc was no mincing or delic: in ealling things by their platnest names. He indignantly scored the representatives of the great stato of Towa for bringing a formal charge of murder in the second degree againsta man who had simply defended his own person and his own Co. and_ had home. He gave due notice that the defend- ant could under no circumstances be found guilty of such a charge, for the supreme court had decided that & man who shot one of a charivari party, which was simply an- noying and insulting bim, could not be found guilty of murder. L this case there wus o foul conspiracy, carried on for months. The defense would show that not only were the aix engaged in it who went to his house to ege bim, but there were others. They were under the protection of the poaco officers and otier oficials, who scemed de- termined to drive Heimicl from the city. The attorney facetiously pictured the de- fendant as being unsophisticated in the ways of the world. The minister of the gospel had strongly ot the idea what when officers of the law took their oath to perform their duty, and that they really meant to do so. When he found that they were allowing law to be violated he queerly enongh thought there was som2thing wroug, and "so boldly declared from his puivit. ‘Uhis aroused thu indignation of a certain class, who began to conspire to drive him out of Neola for no other reason ttan that he favored the obey- g of law. Palmer was one of these. He was breathing threatenings against the de fendant long beforehe ever saw the girt whom he afterwards married, ‘The girl's mother and tue girl herself were members of the church of which the defendant was pastor. The defendant received letters from Falmer's brother-in-law and other relatives in lllinois, asking him to warn the girl's family of Palmer’s character. Palmer had betrayed a girl in Hlinois and was a fugitive from justise. He was a drunken, worthless fellow, The defendant impartea the information thus obtained to the giri’s mother and she in tura to the girl, who told Palmer. This simply increased the animos- ity which Palmer had already folt and led to further violence. The defense would show that he had been assaulted before, had been threatened and had been informed by friends that he was in danger. Hence he armed himself. Onre- turning home about 10 o’clock he found un- known fellows prowling about his barn and, it being dark and not being able to sce who they were, he called out to them. At that moment something struck him. He could not tell at_that woment whether itwas a stone or what, and pulling his revolver he fired. The defense would show that on the previous Saturday night, when the defend- fnt was egged, Palmer was in waiting at the rear of the house with an iron casting in his hand, expecting that the assaulted man would run around that way, and he could then hit him with this. Thero would be_evidence that tho conapi- racy involved a large number of persous, and among them were peace officers and those who should have protected a citizen instead of planning, to *do_nim up,” to use their classic expression. The attornoy road the law by which he claimed that these conspir- ators should be weariog the stripes and their hair cut close. He paid special attention to Riloy Clark, the well koown politician of Neola, and 1ts former mayor. He applied red hot epithets to him, ond of the lightest of which was that of “*coward.” It was not & preacher who was on trial, but a citizen who had been persecuted and abused for de~ siring to see the law observed and ofticers do their sworn duty. ‘fhe examination of witnesses then began. There were a large number on each side. Those for the state, with the exception of the physicians, and the ladics, wero shut up by tue lves in an adjoining room, The witness for the defense, excopting Rev. Mr. Franklin and one or two others, were excluaed from the court room. The first witness was o young fellow named Graver. He was one of the six who went to Helmick's house to egg him. He described the shootiag, and was soon turned ovef to Attorney McCube, who proceeded to twist him up by a very uncomfortable cross. examination, The fzct was brought out that Graver was a night witchman, assisting his father in that businoss, but that he never- theless was cngaged in the conspiracy and quite actively. Tho fellow Was made to squirm u good deal, but stoutly donied that he went to Helmic! house armed, claiming that he did not put & ravolver in his pocket until after the shooting, when he resumed his duties as night watchman. Station Agent Madden of Wegton testified 10 loaning 4 revolver to the defendant on the day of the trage. He could not identify the weapon positively, nor relate the conver- sation accurately Lou Grover and David Cunmngham, who were witnesses at the preliminary examina- tion, were not. to be found, and the state wanted a continuance in order to secure their presence if possible, the defendant agreed, in order to avod this, that their testimony could be introduced s given at the prelimi- nary examination. Both Grover and Cun- ningham were in the crowd which went to Helmick’s house to do the egging. [Iheir testimony was read as given at the prelimi- nary exawination, It was to the effect that the only purpose of the conspiracy as to throw egys.

March William H, Pope, teller of the Loaisville City National bark, a trusted employe and frequenter of the best social circles of this city, has gone. His absence from the bank yesterday morn- ing excitea no comment, ws it was supposed that he was at his sick sister’s bedside or in the country delayed by the flood. When no word was received from him at 10:30 the oficers of the bank became suspicious and opened the vault. A hasty exumination showed that between$0,~ 000 and _$60,000 in large bills were missing. The gold and silver coin was left intact. A careful examination will be required to get at the entire amount Pope took with hiw, Iv was learned that Pope left on the 7.55 o'clock train Sawurday night for Chicago, where 1t i8 supposed he stopped with his brother over Sunday, leaving in the after- noon for Canada. Pope was thirty-cight years old, and had been n the bank since 1881, He'had been leading a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde life for many years, as many of his coinpanions are aware, Tt is learned later that Pope did not go to Chicago, as it was thought, but left Satur- day nignt for Cincinnati,where it is believed he took the train for Detroit. It is rumored that the carrviage which wok Pope to the train from his Jefferson street room con- tained a woman, ‘T'he Fidelity and Casuslty trust company of New York was Pope's surety for $20,000 .The compauny will spend twice the amount of Pope's bond to secure his arrest, the agent states, The bank ofil- cials state the amount embezzled, in round s $60,000, and they think Pope car- rvied that amount with him.
