Baldwin in the hotel, which were placed at his disposal. | Among those who called upon Speaker | Henderson during the morning was Mr. E Rosewater.

While waiting for the speaker the audience was entertained with a number of selections by the Hancock band under the leadership of John Owens, which headed the delegation from that section of the county.* Speaker Henderson, in opening, referred to the fact that it had been many years since he had had the pleasure of addressing a Council Bluffs audience, and said he re- joiced at having found himself able to ac- cept the Invitation to peak here. He sald he never felt less like campaigning than this fall because of the tragic death of Presi- dent McKinley and the fact that there did not seem u single thing to fight. He pref- aced his address with a short but eloquent eulogy of the late president, whose life, he sald, was a monument to character and whose untimely taking off would prove the deathknell of anarchy in this country. After discuseing national affairs briefly, he spoke on state issues as follows: nte Insues, 1 see that Mr. governor on th the nominee for atie ticket, turns away boldly from nat issues. 1 do not blame him.

The jury was discharged yesterday afternoon by Judge Thornell The defense contended that the boat was on the Nebraska side of the lake. The contention of the state was that not only were the sales of liquor proved to have been made on the lowa side of the lake, but that Cut-Off was boundary water, and that therefore the Jurisdiction of either state extended all over it. Judge Thornell, however, in his instructions to the jury held that the lake was not boundary water and not subject to the laws regarding such waters. It s understood that the jury stood eleven to one for conviction. County Attorney Killpack introduced the two witnesses In resistance to the application of Lloyd Forgraves for a continuance of the case in which he is charged with assault with intent to commit murder. Forgraves' application Is based on the grounds that he is ill with infima- matory rheumatism. The two witnesses testified to seeing him in Council Bluffs Tuesday afternoon, when he was apparently well. His attorney expects to introduce testimony this morning in support of the continuance. Judge Thornell sald that on the showing made by the state yosterday afternoon he would be forced to overrule the motion unless Forgraves could produce fur- ther evidence. Judge Thornell this morning will hear the motion of W. F. Sledentopf, former administrator of the estate of William Stedentopf, to have the order modified re- quiring him to turn over wbout $12,000 to the present administrator, J. E. F. McGee. The day in Judge Macy's court was oc- cupled with the trial of the personal in- jury damage sult of Miss Jessle Rozzelle against the city. Plaintiff has a large num ber of witnesses and her testimony was not all in when court adjourned for the day. Ed Thygesen, charged witK breaking into Lloyd's grocery store on Broadway and stealing a shotgun and other articles, was tried before Judge Thornell yesterday. The case was given to the jury about 4 o'clock but up to a late hour last night {t had no reached a verdict. During the examinatior of the defendant the state attempted to make him admit that he had been am in- mate of the penitentiary, but this Thygesen dented.

DES MOINES MAY GET COURTHOUSE Car Porter Accused by Girl in Exone- rated—=Rallway Surgeons De- feat MeKinley Rexo- lutions. (From a Staft Correspondent.) DES MOINES, Oct. 17.—(Speclal.)—Jokn Hayes of Red Oak, one of the most promi- nent and wealthy citizens of lowa. will have to stand a part of the loss of the Uni versity of lllinois on account of the de- alcation of ex-Treasurer Charles W aulding. Hayes was one of the sureties on the bond In the district court in Montgomery county, Judge Thornell presiding, a jury found that technically the bond was not good as against Hayes. The lowa supreme court reverses this judgment today and de clares that the verdict of the jury was con- trary to the cvidence and that the bond should be good against Hayves. The men on the bond qualified for $850,000 all told and the bond was for $600,000. Hayes was the only one who was an lowa man. He qualified for $25,000. Spaulding went wrong and was sent to the peniten- ftary in Iliinols. His shortage amounted to $471,805 and suit was commenced agalnst Hayes as against the others Hayes resisted on the ground that there was evidence of an erasure where one of the names preceding his was signed to the bond. He claimed that the name which had been on the bond had been erased and an- other substituted, namely, that of Allson W. Harlan, who qualified for $200.000. The jury decided that there had been an erasure and another name had been on the bond when Hayes signed it. The supreme court says the jury was not fustifiable in finding that another name had been on the bend and therefore the bond is ood. Courthouse Casne Decided. The long pending controversy over a court- house in Des Moines passed through an- other stage in the supreme court todav. The court sustained the lower court on a series of technical matters and this deci- slon leaves the Board of Supervisors clear to go ahead and build the courthouse on the site of the present building. At one time the people of the county had voted in favor of changing the site to another on the river front, and a bitter fight ensued between residents of East and West Des Molnts The board secured the money-—$300,000 borrowed on bonds—and pending the law- suits placed it in local banks. A tempo- rary building was leased for county offices and suits and injunctions and counter peti- tions galore followed. Unless the partisans of the river front site begin some new litigation, the court- house will be constructed on the site of the old one, which has stood for forty years Special Bargains Friday at the ovelty Cloak Store A Few Bargains in ‘\ Gents' Wear Gents' heavy Shirts regular 3ic value, at Gents' extra heavy fleece lined Underwear the 50¢ kind 1 Gents' Ribbed Underwear— 39¢ regular 50c kind-—at Ladies' Furnishings Ladies’ medium weight Vests IOC‘ regular 2ic value ....
