PR EERE HAS AN ARMFUL OF INDICTMENTS, Seventeen Presentments ed Up by the Present Geand Jury, The grand Jury of the district court made its final report yesterday. It had been an unusually busy term, and thirty-five cases were Invest'gated and 176 witnesses exam- There were seventeen indictments re- turned, and the papers in the cases made a very respectable armful as they were cirried from the jury to the court. Several of ths indictments are still suppressed, oairg (o the fact that the defendants are not in cus- tody, A. D. Annis, an abstractor in the employ of J. W. Squire, was one of the parti:s in- dicted, The charge against him is that of forgery, and Is preferred by B. D. Bel'is, who lives in Garner township. Bellis obtained a loan at Squire’s office in 1833 and gave him his note for $125, to which the signature of his wife was also appended. The note was what 1s known in business circ'es as a mort- gage note, and contained a clanse giving a mortgage op a twenty-acre tract of land owned by Mrs, Bellils. Below this clause was tuterlinel a description of the property. A year or 8o after Bellis claims he d'scov- ered for the first time that the mo-tgage note had been used, and he demanded :atis- faction with o much warmth that Annis consented to change the note for one of the plain variety, and gave the mor.gage nots to Bellis. He also pald a small cash amount to Bellls, The latter claims that the descrip- tion of the prcperty in the nots was forgel by Annis. He tried to have Annis indicted at the las¢ term of court, but failirg, he tried it again, with better results. Annis claims that it is nothing but a cise of blackmsil. Jacob Sims, Annis' attorney, says that Bellis has practically admitted to him that a cash settiement would h.al his wounded feelings. Annis states that he in- terlined the description of ths propecty and filled in the acknowledgment blank on the other side of the note, with the consent of both Mr. and Mrs. Bellis. According (o Bel- lis' own statements bsfore the grand jury, the interlineations were made with violet ink, while the rest of the nots was in biack. This fact is pointed out as an iniication that if Annis wanted to do a piece of crim- inal work he would not use two Kinds of ink whose colors were fo different as to give rise at once to the thought that a fraud had been committed. Minard_Shoemaker, who fs charged with writing Rev. Mo'h'r Vincent's nam: to a check for $6 and passing the check on A, W. Huber, is indicted for forgery Mike Kennedy, the Oklahoma tough who beat his friend, George Simpson, sboat the head with a big revolver, was indicted on the charge of assault with intent to commit murder. Simpson did not appear before the grand jury and it is understood that the case will be prosecuted without his assist- ance, Harrison Latham shot a revolver at his ex-sweetheart, Mrs, Clara Wyman, and is now under indictment for assault with in- tent to do great bodily injury. He was transferred yesterday from St. Bernard's hospital to the county Jjail. James Conklin, Jim Rollins and Fred Lane are Indicted for the burglary of Wheeler Bros." store in Neola and the theft of eight- een razors. George H. Miller, alias B. M. Patton, who passed a forged United States express order for $15 on A. T. Elwell, is indicted. John and Jenzie Miller, who robbed Osear Beligh, a barbar wio had succumbed to ihe dusky Jennie's wiles, were indicted for grand larceny. James Herron was indicted for breaking into C. McKown's house at Crescent and stealing a nickel clock and a basket of egge. Clarence Matthews was Indicted for lar- ceny in the n'ght t'me. His offe was stealing a $16 fur cape from Miss Eva Barnard. Wainwright McPherson, alias Leo Wain- wright, was Indicted for forging the name of J. R. McPherson to a $10 check. John Cover was indicted for burglary in the daytime. He broke into the residence of Mary A. Robinson at 123 Washington av- enue. MOVED AU BE Why the Latter Day Saints Gave Up Their H n the Driving Park. Rev. T. W. Williams, pastor of the church of the Latter Day Saints, made a few re- marks yestorday with reference to the change in plans which resulted in the conference of the church being held at Manawa instead of the Driving park, which show that there is some feeling on the side of the church people at the way they were treated. “The reason our committca gave up the Driving park,” sald he, “was because, un- der the circumstances, they could do noth- ing else. Several ‘months ago our com- mittee secured a lease of the grounds with exclusive privileges. After that the Driving Park association leased the park for ten days to the ‘race’ people. Nothwithstanding the fact that our meeting had been ex- tensively advertised, those in charge of the races went ahead and advertised a thirty days' running meeting, commencing August 31. They afterwards modified it and said fifteen days. This was allowed to go on without any protest from the Driving Park oclation, thus doing us a great injury. ‘Then just a few days before the date anuounced for our reunion the papers an- nounced that ‘strong pressure’ was being used to have the Latter Day Saints vacate, 50 the races could continue. This was only too true, for our committee was called upon to confer with the assoclation. They then learned that the ‘pressure’ was of that character that our committee felt that if they contended for their rights they could not have a successful meeting; that the horsemen would not be off the ground by September 12, and rather than subject the great number of people who were coming from a distance, together with the respecttable citizens of Council Bluffs, to a contamination with the gamblers and toughs who follow these races, they preferred to withdraw. “Whether they were wise in doing so is an open question, and while I was not a member of the committee and had nothing to do with the change, I prefer to take the combined wisdom of five men to that of one. Had the Driving Park association not THEY HAD ToO. used a ‘pressure’ to have our committee vacate they never would have done so. Thelr action, however, confirms my previous opinfon that their sympathy would go with the, race people, and If they could any way get 'rid of the contract with our people they would do so. Other people may do as they please, but I am assured that our people will never seek to hold another reunion :at the Driving park. . “I call upon the religlous people and all true citizens to support our meetings. The speakers are broad, liberal minded men, and no effort will b2 spared to make every one fell ‘at home' on the grounds. We have ex- clusive control of Grand Plaza and all build- ings. The motors will be run at regular in- tervals. The ministers of the city are cordially invited to attend, with as many of thelr members as possible, and participate in the services.' We have leased the L. G. Knoits & Co coal yards and will furnish ail kinds of coal, welghed on eity scales, ton and over, without extra charge. A, J. Blood & Co.

COUNCIL BLUFFS, Sept. 10, 1895.—To the Editor of The Bee: Will you kindly do me the favor to correet a wrong state- ment In the article concerning my resigna- tion In this morning's Bee? It was stated that I left for a more re- munerative position, which statement is in- correct. My salary will be the same. I leave this city with the kesnest regrets, and were 1 the only one concerned in the mat- ter nothing in reason could tempt me to leave. I regard this city and work mot only big enough for me, but big enough for the biggest association man in the world. 1 leave to be near those of my kindred who need my care and insight in matters of education, ete. My work here has been the most pleasant of my life. My board of directors have been the noblest I have ever known, there never baving been an unpleasant word since 1 came among them. Our young men are develovine 3 a marvelous manper, and every relation with me has been more than satisfactory, and the memory of my work at this point will ever be among the sun spots of my life, My successor, Mr. Baker, fs a noble man, and if the good people of this city stand by him as they have stood by me the work will not only hold its own, but advance rapidly. There are Infinite possibilities be- fore the Council Bluffs Young Men's Chris- tion assoclation. Cordially, HARRY CURTIS, I Improved. The grand jury did a little more than the usual amount yesterday, and, instead of merely finding that the county jail was in good condition and the city jail in bad, made A number of suggestions, by following out which the pl % could be made a little more like human habitations. The county jail, they found, was clean and healthy, and they were able to hear no complaints, They suggested, however, that some means ought to be employed to keep witnesses, who are frequently bound over, separate from the prisoners, and especlally from the defendants In_whose cases they are held. The city jail, they sald, was as clean a circumstances would permit, and the only suggestions they made wera for more ceil room, better ventilation, better sewerage, steam heat and a bath room. The implica: tion was tha. the iron bars were all right. There will be a lawn soclal at the resi- dence of J. M.

Roland Reed, a favorite actor, brings his new comedy, said to be the best success he has ever had, to Boyd's theater Sunday ovening. It is the joint work of the late David D.

Mr. Reed of course plays the leading character, and as General Josiah Limber of Illinols stampeder of conventions, groom of dark horses, carpet bagger and professional poli- ticlan, he s said to have created a great comedy role. The play abounds with amusing scenes and situations and the dialogue is par- ticularly bright and interesting. Mr. Reed's engagement at Boyd's theater Is for seven nights and two matinees, commencing Sunday evening next and continuing during the whole of fair week. The following will be the repertoire: Sunday, Monday and Tuesday and Wednesday matinee Mr. Reed will pre- sent his new play: “The Politician;" Wednesday _and Thursday evenings, Me Your Wife;” on Friday and Saturday evenings and Saturday matinee: “Innocent as a Lamb."” “Americans Abroad” iz the matinee at- traction at the Creighton theater this after- noon. “Faust,” as performed by John Grifith and his admirable company, will be one of the most fantastic productions seen at the Boyd All of the ingenious stage accessories criginated by Sir Henry Irving in his Lon don production of his own version of Goethe's story, will be employed by Mr. Grifith.

Last season was really the first time that he appeared in the larger cities of the country, and it was perhaps with some misgivings that the attempt was made.

The position taken by Mr. Manderson is much in the na- ture of a surprise, and simply means that the cases cannot be taken to the supreme court from the court of claims, and hence it happens that by this opinion the supreme court will not get a chance to pass upon the constitutionality of specific bounties, but it is insisted that the whole matter rests with the court of claims, Ex-Senator Manderson stated in his mes- sage to the secretary that neither the secre- tary nor the comptroller could refer the claim under section 1,063 of the Revised Statutes, because that section had been re- vealed by the act of March 8, 1S87. Mr. Manderson referred to what is known as the Tucker act, which is on the same line as the Bowman act of March 8, 1863, The question of the repeal of section 1,063 is directly in- volved in the suit of the state of New York against the United States on a claim for $131,187 on account of troops equipped and sent to the war, The point that this section had been repealed was raised by Assistant Attorney General Whitney, government coun- sel In the case. Senator Hill, who was the counsel for New York state, took the other gronnd and combatted the {dea that it had been repealed. This claim of the state of New York was filed in the Treasury department, and in 1889 it was referred to the court of claims. The court gave judgment in favor of the state for only $91,320, and the state appealed to the supreme court. The government alto ap- pealed, and the case was argued last winter, but was not decided because of the fict that only six judges were on the bench. It was reassigned for argument at the coming Oc tober term, and is expested to cyme up nest month, repeals 1,063 is sectlon 12 of the act of 1887, which reads: “That whenever any claim or matter may be pending in any of the executive depari- ments which involves controverted ques ions of law or of fact, the head of such depart- ment, with the consent of the claimant, may transmit the same, With the vouchers, papers, proofs and documents pertaining therto. to sald court of caims, and the same shall b there proceedel in under such rules as the court may alopt. When the facts and con clusions of law shall have be:n found, the court shall report its finding to the depa:t ment by which it was transmitted " Mr. Manderson calls the a'tent'on of Ses- retary Carlisle to the clause requiring the consent of the claimant to the refe-eace. Senator Hill, counsel for the s'ate of N York, held in this case that there was neither an expressed nor implicd repeal of section 1,063 by the Bowman or the Tucke: acts, but they all can stand together. It was o held by the eourt of cla‘ms. The main provisions of the three sections are as fol'ow Section 1,063 of thc Revised Statu'es pro vides for the transmission of any claim find- ing in the execu'ive departments excesd ng $3,000 in amount, whe.he<r the claimant con- sents or not, and provides for a hearing, de cisfon and judgment, from which there is no appeal to the suprome court. Section 2 of the Bowman act provdec for the transmission of any matter peniing in the executive departments, irvespeciive of amount involved or the consent of the claim- ant, to the court, which shall make findings and report the same to the department for its guidance and ec bit the court shall not enter judgment, and consejuently there is no appeal. Section 12 of the Tucker act provides for the zame kind of a case, but the consent of the claimant is required, and there is no authority for a judgment by the court which reports back the findings. 1t is contended by Mr. Bowler and others who assert that section 1,063 is not repealed, that it differs from the provisions of the acts cited In the authority given to the sec- retary to refer the claim on the certificate of any auditor or the comptroller of the treasury. Even should Mr. Manderson's point be sustained, the sugar bounty claim could be referred to the court of claims under the Bowman act, unless it be held that section 2 of that act is also repealed. There would be no appeal to the supreme court from the findings under that act. In the cvent that all reference to the court of claims were cut off, Mr. Bowler would simply decline to pay the bounty and force the claimants into court, The sugar bounty claims, as transmitted by the auditor to the secretary of the treas- ury, are still on his desk, and will not be sent to the court until Mr. Manderson has been given time to present the matter more fully to the secretary of the treasury. The secretary refused to make a statement cover- The section which, it is contindel, p bo given full consideraticn.

The woman Was struck on the head directly above the fore head, and, while she bled profusely, she is not supposed to be badly hurt, although she hag a bad cut. The man succeeded in mak- ing his escape, It Is not known what causcd Smith to strike his wife. It Is the opinion of the nelghbors that it was the general cusscdness which forms the greater portion of his makeip which drove him to do it. Smith has estab- lished a record as a terror in the nelghbor hood in which he lives, and his neighbors are in constant fear of their lives.

When the officer arrived at Irvine's house the laiter joined him and the two went to the Smith abode. When the house was reached the door was Kicked open and by the rays of the lighted lamp which Irvine held In his hand Smith was seen lying on the floor with his head pillowed upon his folded coat. Before anything could be done to capture him the draught blew out the light. The officer and the preacher could hear Smith spring to h feet and rush to the rear of the house, where hé evidently jumped out of a window. ~When the lamp was lighted again he was gone, On the floor of the room lay the body of the woman whom Smith had asswited.

Blood was flowing freely from her head, while the floor and furniture were bespattered with blood sistance was at once given her, and after siderable work she was finally brought to consclousness. It was discovered that beyond receiving a severe cut in the head she was not otherwise injured. Mcanwhile Trvine and the officer searched the weeds in the neighborhood of the house for Smith, but no trace of him could be found. He had completely disappeared The brutality of the man was fully shown by his conduct after he had struck the wo man. After felling her to the floor, and while she was lying there unconsclous, he had evidently taken off his coit and, folding it up for a pillow, had lain down to sleep, not waking up until Irvine and the officer ar- rived. —_——— A Syndicate of Monsters.
