The Nichols Cases ouashed.

This morning at 10 o'clock, there was a
good attendance at Justice Viele's office to
hear the decision of Mayor Rose, on the
motion made yesterday by counsel for
defense to quash the complaint charging
conspiracy. The motion was sustained by
Mayor Rose. Geo. +. Hubbell, Esq.
and Judge Benson, for defendants then
filed motion to quash the indictment
charging adultery. claiming thats it was
illegally stated-that the law requires
specific charge in each count, whereas
the complainant combines mum
Der Of charges in one. The motion
was argued at length by defendants at
torneys, and by A. G. Congdon, ESQ.,, anG
Attorney Brown for the state. At Thu
point motion was made by plaintiff
counsel for change of venue from Mayo
Rose to Justice Kaufman on the grount
that Rose had given advice in matter
relative to questions in this issu
and was therefore, by the law, no
qualified to act on the case.
Defendants counsel objected to the consid
eration of the motion, claiming that the me
ton to quash was in order and insisted o
a decision. Quite lively tilt occurred b.
tween Geo. L. Hubbell ESQ. and Attorne
Brown at one time during the argumen
Mayor Rose finally decided that the motto
to quash was in order and rendered d
cision that, in his opinion, the objection
made by defence were we'll taken, an
granted the motion. Att'ys Congdon an

The Kirkman Tragedy.

From Tuesdays Des Moines Register
we learn that all the parties suspected of
completely with the Story county hanging
excepting Kirkman's wife,, have been ar
rested. Liufred Fisher and VIM. Zins.
master were sons in-law of the victim, and
Daniel Kirkman, boy, was the unnatural
son who bought the rope to hang his faith
er last winter. The Register says:
The rope found on Kirkman's neck was
taken by the sheriff to boy employed up
on the farm Of one of the men suspected,
for Identification. The lad recognized it as
rope used for haltering one Of the man Is
horses. 1t was missing at the time of the
murder,
A boot track found near the body has
been measured and found to correspond
with the boot worn by one Of Kirkman'
sons law, one of the men arrested.
The direction taken by the party after
the execution corresponds with the suspi
cions Of the jury, and there are other cir
cumstances plainly pointing toward the
guilty parties.
OF the men arrested, one is son an(
two sons-in law of Kirkman's. Suspicion
strongly attaches to Mrs. kirkman as al
accompIice before the fact, although sh,
has not been arrested. The fact that tn,
the house was that night left unlocked fo
the first time, and that she dissuaded he
husband from leaving the bed to faster
the outer door when he discovered that i
had not been locked, added to the fact o
her persistent demands that he shOul'
make the will, are extremely suspicious.
