PRISONERS' STORY SEEMS IMPOSSIBLE Indientions Point to Conelusion That Deceased Was Cut in Throat After Running Out of the House. | County Attorney Killpack was advised yesterday of the dlscovery of further evi- | | dence against Mrs. Barney McDaniels and Bert Livix, charged with the murder of the woman's busband, Barney MeDaniels. A second and more thorough search of the | house occupled by the McDaniels on the tarm pear Macedonia resulted in the discov- ery, not only of blood-stained garments be- longing to Mrs. McDanfels and Livix, but of a large butcher kmife, bearing fresh blood stains, and a hamme The discovery of the blood-stained butcher knife and hammer is claimed by the au- thorities to contradict the story of the pris- oners that McDaniels cut his throat with a razor belonging to Livix. This razor w kept in & small drawer in the top of an old-fashioned bureau which = was kept locked. The top of the drawer was found broken off and Livix and Mrs. McDaniel claimed that McDanlels must have kicked it off. This is regarded by the authorities as improbable because when McDaniels ran from the house with his throat cut he was in his Sare feet. After the hammer was discovered it was found that it exactly fit- ted into the indentations on the portion of the bureau top which had been forced off. The articles found in the search of the house were taken charge of by the local | authorities at Macedonia, and placed in the vault of one of the banks awalting in- structions from the county attorney. McDanlels' throat was gashed in two sep- arate places, and it is said that the nature of the wounds preclude them having been self-inflicted. The carotid artery was found to have been completely severed, and if this had been the case before McDaniels rushed out of the house there would have been, | it is sald, greater evidences of blood about the premises. McDaniels is known to have cried out after he ran from the house, and this, physicians say, wquld have been im- possible had his windpipe been cut before he ran out of the house. The theory of the authorities is that McDaniels' throat was cut the second time by some ome after he ran from the house and was lylng on the roadside, The prisoners have secured the services of Attorney Lew Genung, and he notified County Attorney Killpack yesterday that | he intended applying to the court for an order speclally convening a grand jury in ordes that it indicted his clients might | have their trial without delay. Thid will it 18 understood be opposed by the county | attorney, who will demand that the case | be brought before the grand jury at its regular session in April, as in the mean- time additional evidence may be secured. Coroner Troynor has not yet made an ex- | amination of the stomach of the dead man | with & view of ascertaining if he took strychnine, as claimed by the accused. Council Bluffs lodge No. 620, Brotherhood of Rallroad inmen, will give their ninth annual ball Thursday evening, February 19, in Royal Arcanum hall. REJECT THE DITCH PROPOSAL ty Board Decldes .That the Proper Steps Have Not Been Tak After a conferen: with the Harrison county autkorities lasting the greater part | of yesterday's session the Board of County | Supervisors decided to reject the petition for the drainage ditches in Rockford town- ship, which were to form part of the drain- age system planned by Harrison county. | This action was the result of County At- torney Killpack advising the supervisors | that the proper procedure would be for Har- | rison and Pottawattamle counties to unite | in the formation of & drainage district for | the joint comstruction of the proposed | waterways. A joint petition by the persons interested in both counties will have to be | secured and submitted to the board. Un. less the board decides to hold 3 special session before then no action will be taken in the matter until the regular meeting in April. According to the plan proposed the ex- pense of constructing the ditches in Pot- | tawattamie county, including the amount of : damages claimed by owners of land through | which the waterways were to be made, | would have amounted to about $70,000. In | order to carry off the water from Harrison county the portions of the ditches in Potta~ wattamle county would have to be consid- | erably more extensive than those in Harri- son county. Ihis would increase the ex- pense of the work in this county and the board decided that it would be unfair to require the farmers benefited In this county to pay a larger proportion than the Harrl- son county people. By forming a joint dralnage district the entire cost of the | work can be equally assessed in both couns | thes, Those present at the comference from Harrison county were: A, J. Gilmore of Missourt Valley, J. §. Hall of Woodbine, | W. 8. Kelly of Mondamin, members of the | County Board of Supervisors, B. F. Huft | of Logan, county auditor; J. C.

They will be accompanied by Principal Marshall. Miss Carey will bo the guest of Miss Della Met- calf of the local team, while Principal Mar- sball and Messrs, Coe and Keeling - had rooms reserved for them at the Grand hotel. Word was recelved yesterday that a good- sized delegation would be here Friday aft- ernoon from Stoux City. In the delegation will be several members of the high school faculty. Up to last night efforts to third judge for the debate had not met with any great success. Principal Ensign hopes, however, that this matter will be settled this morning. The two judges who have been selected are Hon. L. G. Kinne of Des Moines, member of the State Board of Control, and Prof. C. H. Gordon, super- intendent of the city schools of Lincoln, ecure the | Neb.

The question for debate is, “Resolved, That the United States is Nut Justified in Retaining Permanent Possession of the Philippine Islands.” Council Bluffs has the negative, and Sioux City the afirmative. Victor E. Bender will preside. After Fireme Tournament. There is a possibility® of Courcil Bluffs entertaining the annual meeting ®f the Towa State Firemen's association this sum- mer. Sioux City had been selected as the place for the meeting, but it is said the fact that it has scheduled a cagnival for the first week In July will prevent it en~ tertaining the firemen, and the executive committee of the asociation is now look- ing about for another meeting place. The directory of the Commercial ¢lub has taken the matter up, and yesterday a com mittee conferred with the officers of the Omaha and Council Bluffs Street Railway | company. Much will depend on the assist- ance offered by the street rallway company, and this probably will be decided toduy. The firemen's tournament would, it is ex- pected, attract several thousand visitors to the city, as excursions would be run into the city during the three days from surrounding towns. In the event of the meeting being secured for Council Bluffs, it is probable fhat the racing events and other features of the tournament would be | pulled off at Lake Manawa.

DES MOINES, la., Feb. 18.—(Bpecial.)~ The State Board of Health and Board of Medical Examiners met in quarterly ses- slon In this city today. The report of Sec- retary Kennedy on the general state of {health in the state shows that there Is much less of contagion in the state than usual and smallpox has almost disap- | peared from the state.

The state assoclation of un- dertakers sent a delegation to the board asking that the requirements for a cer- tificate as an embalmer be raised so as to make it a great deal more difficult to become an embalmer in Iowa. The board is engaged in examining and passing on the examination papers of a large number of those desiring certificates as embalmers or as doctors and osteopaths. Crandall Not Arrested, No action has been taken to punish the persons who shot Harry Pattee at Perry a few weeks ago, when he caught them stealing meat at 1 o'clock in the morning. Stephen Crandall was looked upon with suspicion and was arrested. Two dogs followed a trail to his home in the country the paxt day angd it was felt sure he was connected with the affair. He was ar- rested and sent to jail for thirty days for hog stealing and it was expected that be- for: the end of his term some actlon would be taken to connect him with the Patteé shooting. Nothing has developed and Crandall has been released from the jall at Adel where he served his time. It was also supposed that Crandall was out on parole and could be sent back to the penitentiary on an old charge, but this proves to have been a mistake as he had been given full pardon. The governor offered a reward of $300 for the conviction of the men who shot Pattee. Towa Plumbers. The state meeting of the plumbers' as- soclation was concluded here this even- ing with a banquet.

Dra tie Story of the Troubles Be. tween Herselt and Hus- band. " CENTERVILLE, Ia., Feb. 18.—(Special.) The trial of Mrs. Krebbs for the murder of her husband is proceeding slowly In district court. Mrs. Krebbs, the defendant, was on the stand yesterday and today, but on both days broke down completely and swooned away. It became necessary to dismiss her from the stund and call other witnesses, thus delaying the case. Her story of the killing was dramatic in the extreme and sensational. She testificd to repeated acts of cruelty on the part of her husband, and how he had thrown water in her: face and had knocked her down and choked her. The shooting followed a scene when he had asked her about her having commenced sult for divorce. She told of her daughter hav- ing detalled the criminal propesals to her and assault ypon her, after which Mrs. Krebbs consulted a lawyer and told of the circumstances. It was then she had com- menced sult for divorce. In the quarrel over this the shooting was done. The daughter of Mrs. Krebbs by a for- mer marriage testified as to the criminal | assault of Krebbs upon bher. Mrs. Krebbs had been three times married, her first husband was divorced, and the second w | killed In a mine. The deughter who'testi- fled on the stand was of the second hus- band, and her story was convineing of the | eriminality of Krebbs. The case will con- tinue nearly all week.
