Referee Mayne heard the testi- mony for the Kingman company Saturday afternoon and has taken the case under ad- visement. The bankruptcy proceedings against the @rm of Peterson & Co. were the outcome of s fire in the rame store about a year ago where the costly blaze started last Wednes- flay night and destroyed buildings and prop- erty valued at $30,000. Henry Peterson, one of the members of the firm, was are rested on a charge of arson, but at the pre- liminary hearing before Justice Ferrler in this city was discharged. Creditors within & few days of the fire brought proceedings in the United States court here to have the firm declared bankrupt. Three creditors folned in the application to the court, but later withdrew the case. Peterson & Co. in the meantime have effected a settlement with them at 40 cents on the dollar. The Kingman Implement company was left out in the cold. When the Kingman company learned ot the settlement by Peterson & Co. with their other creditors, it at once applied to Judge McPherson to have the bankruptey proceedings reopened, alleging fraud. The court sustained the application and the case was referred back tp Mr. Mayne for further Investigation and the discharge of the firm rescinded. Gravel roofing: A. H. ~ead, 541 Broadway.

Unprecedented Oase Recalled by Death of | p the Presiding Judge. AROSE OVER THE PARDON PROBLEM Chester Turne Youth of Seventeen, and M Mother Stellar Performe ers in This Sensnt Drama. onal (From a Staft Correspondent.) DES MOI Jan. (Special.)—Just thirteen years ago there occurred in Des Moines a trial for which no precedenis were found in the law books and in many respects the most remarkable criminal case in the annale of the state. Governor Willlam Larrabee, then one of the most conspicuous fgures in state af- tairs, was indicted and placed on trial ln this county for the alleged crime of circu- lating a libel. No governor of any Ameri- can state ever had such an experience. The recent death of the judge who presided at the trial recalls the facts in the case Governor Larrabee got into trouble over the pardon problem, then as now, a serious one in the office of the chief executive, A demand had been made for the pardon of one Chester Turney, a young man of Jack- son county, who was serving a sentence of seventeen and one-half years in the pemi- tentiary. He bad been sentenced by the late Judge Walter 1. Hayes and there ap- peared to have been some question as to the regularity of the proceedings in the lower court, but the appeal bad been In vain, Turney's mother, who was almcst distracted by the fate of her som, set out to arouse the whole state to demand hls release. She tramped the state from end to end literally alone and afoot and secured one of the most formidable petitions for a pardon ever filed in the governor's office She enlisted the services of editors and poll ticlans and she filled some of the news- papers of the state with columns of denun clation of the governor for refusing to pardon the young man. The matter was taken before the leglslature but nothing was accomplished there. Other Side of Cane, About this time Governor Larrabee col- leoted the information on the other side and printed it in a circular intended to be sent out (o Inquirers as to the status of the case. This included a statement from a weekly newspaper, including an address prepared by residents of Jackson county protesting against the pardon. It contained also a statement to the effect that Mrs two husbands living, ome In and one In New York, from neither of which had she been divorced. Turney were turious threatened the governor with dire consequences. They went before a grand jury and quoting this one statement from the circular caused him to be indicted for circulating a Iibel. The Turney case has already become fa- millar to everyone in lowa. The young man had set put on a career of crime quite and tence In the town of Andrew, Jackson county, for burglary of a watch. When he got out he tcok possession of an old ferry boat on the Maquoketa river and fitted out for an adventurous voyage down the Missia- sippl river. He broke into severai stores at Preston, Jackson county, and secured among other things a dozen revolvers. a case of pocket knives, a violin, many tools and implements, a jug of whisky and a box of clgars. These he hid in a cave near the ferry boat. Then he took canvas from tarmers’ reapers to cover his plunder. Fourteen Indictments Before he had sot sail to see the world he was arrested. Fourteen separate indict- ments were found against him, eight for breaking and entering houses and six for burglary. He had no money and one Wyn- koop was appointed by Judge Hayes to de- fend him. There was no defense, but in- stead of pleading guilty, a jury was drawn and the form of a trial went through with, on each of the fourteen cases. The jury found him gullty and Judge Hayes sentenced him to seventeen years and a half In the peni- tentlary. That which brought to Mrs. Turney more friends then anything else was the general hatred of Judge Hayes, especially among his political enemies, and a belief that the attorneys in the case were more Interested in padding their fee bill than in securing exact justice for the friendless young man. Another thing which operated to help Mrs. Turney was the fact that Governor Larra- bee was at that time the subject of a bitter factional feud in his party. Mrs. Turney succeeded, at least, in arousing the whole state on her case. Trinl of Governor Larrabee, Judge William F. Conrad, recently de- ceased, was the presiding judge at the trial of Governor Larrabee. Charles A. Bishop, who had but recently removed to Des Molges, was given the case for the defense. He pursued the policy of not attacking Mrs. Turney, nor attempting to show the truth of the charges made in the circular, but to rely on the right of the governor to prepare and circulate a privileged com- munication in line of his official duty. One who had become interested in the Turney case an® who had really been in- strumental in having the Indictment brought was Mrs. E. HsGlllette, wife of the tormer congressman from this district. Mrs. Gillette was a finely educated and cultured woman and she had great influence in the case. She appeared virtually to direct the caso In court and repeatedly took active part either in the questioning of witnesess or the suggestion of points to be brought out. She became almost hysterical in her intense interest in the case. But Larra- bee was mequitted by the jury. In a few weeks théreafter he pardoned Chester Tur- ney. General Joseph Given, who had declined to try the case w pointed to the su- preme bench and the governor's lawyer was appointed to & place In the district bench, which he has occupled ever since. Judge Conrad has just died. Chester Turney lived for a time on the Gillette farm near Des Moines and later drifted westward, Mrs, Gillette socured a divorce from her husband and Is living quietly here In Des Moines, while Mr. Gil- lette and his daughter live on their farm near Valley Junction. Mrs. Turney still lives here in Des Moines. In her testimony she had stated that she was married in 1862 to Turney and two years later he went to the war and was not heard of again. She got one letter fromhim and heard afterwards that he had been killed while foraging, but never had any positive proof of his death, She was later marrizd to a Sr. Me- Glone. An effort was made at ane time, when she was pushing the agai the governor, to have her declared Insane, Turney never returned to Jackson county, where the feeling against him was intense because of his numerous thefts and his threats agalnst the lives of many citjzens. case If Banner Salve doesn’t cure your piles, your money will be returned.
