l.. Harbach, as a member and also
as creditor of the Des MONIES club.
has asked for the appointment of re-
ceiver of the club and also for an ac-
counting. The papers, which have
been filed by his attorneys, Park q
O'Dell, make all the 100 members of
the club defendants. 1t is evidently
the intention of Mr. Harbach to wind
up the affairs of the club In his petit
ton he says that a great many of Its
debts are created without the authority
of the club. Among these debts so
considered by him are $4,000 mort
gage to Il. M. Hubbell, a director, and
S24, 600 for land purchased and the
erection of the club house. The petit
ton says the gentlemen who did this
knew that the club was insolvent and
are therefore individually responsible,
and not the club.
Dan Unger, sheriff of Cherokee
county, is looking up matters IN con-
nectlon with the recent murder Of John
II. Beal, near Quimby. He believes
that he has clue that will enable the
guilty party to be located. 1t appears
that the night after the murder the
deputy sheriff of one of the counties
near Cherokee took an insane person
to Independence. In the seat across
from him in the car sat MAN who
acted very nervously, and bore almost
the exact description of the two men
who were seen by on engineer of the
Onawa branch near where the murder
was committed, except that he had on
different pantaloons and shoes. The
fellows actions attracted his attention,
and when the train reached Waterloo
the deputy sent back for another de-
scription of the murderer and it came
as before. Between Waterloo and In
dependence the suspicious individual
was searched and 30 in money found
on his person, all in bills. The money
taken from Beal's body was in gold, so
he allowed the fellow to go, and it is
supposed that he went to Chicago. On
returning to Cherokee, however, the
deputy found that the fellow was I'M
doubtedly the right man, for it was
learned that he changed the gold for
bills, and also purchased pair of new
pantaloons and new Shoes As soon as
this information was obtained the dep
uty started for Chicago with full de-
scriptioL of the man. 1t is reported
that the fellow formerly lived in Wat
erloo and knew that young Beal was
preparing to go to his home in that
city, and also that he would probably
have some money with him. The off,
GERS propose to leave no stone unturned
that will lead to the capture of the
murderer.
Gov. BoIes has granted pardon to
Joseph Row, who killed Constable
Logan in 1889 in Hurlbut, Hess 81 Co s
wholesale liquor store at Des Moines.
The store had been troubled good
deal by searchers, and the proprietors
finally armed their men and ordered
them to resist all pretended officers
without warrants Constable Logan
invaded the store, and upon being
asked for warrant by Row refused to
show any. Row resisted him and Lo-
gan pulled his revolver and began fir
ing. Row returned the fire with fatal
results. Both Row and j. Reed Hurl-
but were indicted for murder. Hurl-
but was acquitted and Row was con-
victed of manslaughter The pardon
record reads as follows: Joseph Row,
who was on the 25th day of October,
1890, committed to the penitentiary at
Fl. Madison for term of five years for
manslaughter, committed to three
years, ten months and twenty days"
which released the prisoner on the
9th. The Communication is granted, ac-
cording to the pardon record in the
governors office, because a careful
reading of the record in the case con-
vinces me that the defendant in COM
hitting the act tor which he Is suffer-
ing honestly believed he was acting in
iustifiable self-detense. He was or
dered under arrest by consta BILE who
refused 10 produce warrant, there
fore he refused to submit to arrest I'M
less the constable would produce a
warrant. Whereupon he was assaulted
by the officer with drawn revolver in
manner from which he could right
fully believe his own life was in i'm
minent peril, and acting upon his opin-
ion that he could rightfully defend shis
own life he used his revolver with fatal
results. In the penitentiary he has
been a most exemplary prisoner. Said
Communication is granted upon the con-
sideration that said Row shall demean
himself hei eater IN every respect as
an orderly and law-abiding citizen"
