Mrs. Brown Indicted.

MASON CITY, Ia, Nov. 3.-[Special Tele-
gram to THE Bee The grand jury, after
twelve days CT careful examination of writ
ten and verbal testimony, finds an indict-
ment against Mrs. Sarah T.. Brown for
poisoning her father lin law and youngest
son. The crime was committed March 1,
while the family, consisting of five, were
seated around the supper tables. They were
all taken violently i'll. On the following day
Hiram l.. and Jesse died. Diagnosing the
case, the physicians concluded that the symp-
toms much resembled poisoning On search
ing house hox of ''Rough on Rats" was
found. The affair remained an unsolved
mystery for two weeks, when public senti-
grew so strong as to demand the coroner to
take proceedings in the matter. Tho
body of Hiram l.. Brown was exhumed
and sent to u chemist in Chicago for ex-
animation. He reported that he found
arsenic in large quantities. The jury, after
four days Of examination. rendered singular
verd ict in which it suspicloned Hiram r.
Brown as being tho guilty person. Brown,
III order to clear himself, secured the services
of Detective H. II. Chafin, who accumulated
enough evidence to cause the arrest Of Mrs.
H. Il. Brown as being the one guilty, but in
presenting the matter before Justice Cum
mings he found no grounds on which to
bind her over. Much additional evidence
was secured by the grand jury. A warrant
will be issued for her arrest. The trial will
not occur until December.

entitled to his reasonable hire, and If he
does not receive it he is wronged and de-
frauded man. Our opponents are preaching
to you that the way for you
to get good wages is to have
high protective tariff; to tax
you on everything you earn, for that is what
1T comes to. l do not believe that am no
friend of violent means, but tell you that
laboring mems organizations, when properly
conducted and rightly managed, have done
more to secure good wages than all the tariff

world cannot organize for their own protec-

the parade passed was lined with people.
