yesterday was a brief affair. The
county attorney announced at the
opening that the state would rest its
case and offer no more testimony, while
the defense reconsidered its determin-
alton and also rested.
1t was then that Mr.. Van Colt re-
marked; The prosecution rests the
case without argument
Judge Wenger stated that the only
thing left was to consider the matter
of bonds-whether the prisoner should
be admitted to bail or not Mr.. Van
Cott declared the prosecution would
object TO the giving of bonds, the Of
Tense not being a bailable one.
To this Fred McGurrin said they
could argue the matter in the after
noon. but the court held it was mat
ter which he could not hear at the
afternoon session, and he would hold
her without bonds fer the present, but
might listen to an argument at 10
O'Clock this morning.
Mr.. Van Colt declared that he saw
no reason why the matter could not
be disposed of at that time. There was
no occasion for any delay. According
TO the statutes bail could not be given
for murder in the first degree He
called attention to- the following state
of affairs rs revealed by the reading
of the law upon the subject:
"A defendant charged with an of
tense punishable with death cannot be
admitted TO bail when proof of guilt
is evident or the presumption is great

merous other failures in the town of

Growing.
Keol1uk, Ia, April 2S.-The crevasse
in the Hunt Ievee, which broke yester-
day. is now about 800 feet wide. and all
territory back of it is flooded Every
government boat in this vicinity has
been pressed into service to stop the
crevasse. but Major Moigs said that it
would take two weeks hard work to do
it. The damage is already done and
hundreds os farmers are ruined and
have saved nothing but the clothes
they wore. The break came so unex-
pectedly that it was a rush for life
without any opportunity to save any
thing. The situation in the submerged
district is deplorable. Thirty thousand
acres of fine land are submerged and
prospects for crops this season are gone.
No loss of life has vet been reported
as a result of the break. The situation
on the Missouri side is unchanged. All
the bottom lands from this city to Han
nibal are overfiowed and the towns of
Gregory, Alexandria, Canton and Lee
grange are submerged.
The creVasse in the Hunt levee to-
night is 800 feet in width. Major Meigs,
the government engineer. asserts that
it viii take a week TO stop the break.
The loss to property owners is esti-
mated at from, $250O00 to $500, 600.

All these statements which they say
come from me / know nothing of. My
case is in the hands of my attorneys
and when they tell me to state any
thing l shall do so and not before"
Mrs. Hamilton looks wan and pale,
and in reply to a question as to how
she was feeling. she said she did not
feel a bit well; that she was i'll at
times, and this was one of them. How
ever, the best of attendance was being
given her and she could not complain.
She wished, however, it was not so long
to the date of her trial.
WILL NOT ASK FOR BAIL.
Fred McGurrin said yesterday he be-
lieved the defense would not make an
application for bail in this case. 1t
appeared that the case would be set
for trial at an early date and bail
would not be required.
At the county attorneys office it is
said that the case will be set for as
early date as consistent with the
permitting of the defense to prepare
for trial. While there will be no I'M
due haste, neither will there be any
unseemly delay. The trial will doubt
less be had some time during the lat
ter portion of May or early in June.
SOME NE WEVIDENCE.
When the matter comes up for trial
in the district court there will be some
new evidence introduced, the prosecu-
ton not having made half the showing

developed just enough to hold her for
trial, while at the district court

that Mr.. Van Colt did not attempt to

ing the important matter of detail to
