Eldora, Aug. 30.-The case of Jennie
Ives. by her next friend. Retta Ives, VS..
William Weldon has occupied the court
for the past two days. 1t is a damage
suit in which plaintiff asks damages in
the sum Of $4,000 for injuries received
on account of defendant having sold
gasoline instead of kerosene. 1t appears
that plaintiff drew quantity of the
fluid to light the fire in the cook stove,
surprising it to be kerosene. An explo-
sion occurred and the plaintiff was bad
ly burned about the side of the face and
neck and arms, and is disfigured for life.
The case Is holly contested. The case
will go to the jury some time today.

Nevada, Rug. 30.-Frank zenor, the
daring young man who perpetrated
two skillful forgeries. one upon ]. A.
Fitchpatrick, of this city. and the other
upon parties in Boone, was indicted by
the grand jury yesterday afternoon.
Since his flight to Nebraska and subse-

Omaha on information furnished by the
clever work Of Mr.. Fitchpatrick, Zenor
has been languishing in the county bas-
tile. His trial promises to be one Of the
most interesting and sensational ones
heard before this district tribunal in
many years, for certainly the crime as
alleged, in point of GOODNESS, in concep-
ton and execution, is almost unsur-
passed. 1t is not yet announced as to
whether his case will be heard this term
of court or next. The grand jury also
found an Indictment against William

gle IN the Philippines.

gle IN the Philippines.
Chicago, Aug. 30.-Congressnan j. A
T. Hull, of Iowa. the author of the Hull
army BILL arrived in Chicago yesterday
morning, having come here on receipt
of the news of the disaster to the Colt
|seum, in which he is interested. In dis
cussing the army bill and the policy of
President Mckinley in regard to the
war in the Philippines MIR. Hull said:
The result of the contest in the Phil
ippines has demonstrated the wisdom
lof the proposed army legislation as en-
lacted by the house of representatives.
and has shown the utter folly of our
democratic and populist senate, which
succeeded in defeating the army bill. If
the department had had authority for
an army of sufficient size Aguinaldo
would have been crushed long before
the rainy season began, but the legsia-
ton forced upon the country by the
lccmbination of democrats and populists
was expensive If put in operation, and
at the best unsatisfactory. The admin
listration evidently tried to avoid the
livery expensive methods placed at the
disposal of the president by congress,
but has finally been compelled to adopt
Them. The very men who are now most
lclamorous against the administration
Iare responsible for the bad legislation
on army matters.
1.-THE appropriation of $50, 600, 600
lwould have met the requirements of the
government for an army on the basis of
what was called the Hull bill, but the
country will have a very large deficit
| to pay for the temporary army now be-
ling organized The number of men au-
thorized by the bill as finally passed is
fully as large as the original bill would
have permitted, but the one was a per-
manent law made flexible by the power
| of the president to reduce from the
maximum to the minimum without dis
turbing the general army organization
while the other is simply temporary in
Its character and will entail upon the
country very large expense Of travel
pay and clothing on discharge and a
great expense of enlisting new men at
short periods of time. The cry of a
standing army to overturn the liberties
! of the people is not worthy of answer.
1 "Our fathers were supposed to be
rather plain people, and yet with only
| Z, 900, 900 inhabitants they We're willing
| to provide for an army of 10000 men
| AT the same ratio we snouiu nave az
army of 10000. In my judgment econ
omy would dictate the sending of q
force to the Philippines sufficient tc
make short work of the insurrectior

Sioux City, Aug. 3O.-At 10 O'clock yes
terday Samuel Day, a we'll known law
yer, was found unconscious in his room
in this city. He had evidently taken an
overdose of laudanum or morphine and
late in the afternoon he died. Every eff
fort was made to keep him alive, but
without avail. Samuel Day had lived
in Sioux City for several years. and
came here from Great Bend, Kas.
where he was on the bench. A year age

United States have made great adj
vances within the last year and half,
and in my opinion the sensible people Of
the country are now in favor not of
having large standing army, but a
sufficiently strong one to meet the ordt-
nary and necessary demands made upon
the government. / regard the coming
session as sure to pass legislation both
for regular force and for an organized
militia of the states on such lines as
will give the government ample protec-
ton.
..The president Of the United States is
Establishing himself more and more in
the confidence of the people of this
country, and his wishes and demands
will be met by congress and Endorsed.
by the people. The patriotic people Of
the country are beginning to realize
that the men who opposed all legisla-
ton of the last session We're simply
anxious to put the administration of
President Mckinley in what they would
call hole and the people of the country
will not endorse by their votes any such
latitude of so-called statesmen"
In speaking of the political and finan-
cial outlook in Iowa Mr.. Hull said:
THE political situation in Iowa is all
that republicans could ask for. The re-
| publican platform is a clear-cut de-
mand for the establishment of a gold
money standard by law, SO that it can
not be interefered with by any president
or congress, and also cordial indorse-
| ment of the administration in Its for
eign policies, especially as applied to
| the islands acquired from Spain as a re-
/ suit of the war.
The democratic platform is an in
dorsement of the Chicago platform, in
cluding the is to plank, and assails the
administration on account of the war in
the Philippines.
The people of Iowa are overwhelm-
lingly in favor of honest money and are
unalterably opposed to allowing any
half savages to dictate to us what we
shall do with our own. There are thou
sands of democrats in the state who
| will not allow their votes to be counted
against the administration until all
1 signs of rebellion have been crushed
out. President McKinley's speech a,
/ Pittsburg to the returning soldiers
sounded the keynote to the fight, and or
the issue of sustaining him Iowa can be
counted on for $4,000 majority
i Financially Iowa is in splendid con-
dition. and money is more abundant
than it has been for years. The farmers
/ are largely paying off mortgages, and
SO are the owners of small city proper
ties"

French Leave of HIS Bondsmen.

French Leave of His Bondsmen.
Special to imes-Repubiican.
Buffalo Center, Aug. 30.-There has as
yet no word been received of the where
abouts of B. v. Andrus, who is accused
of the crime of burglary. 1t seems that
Andrus entered the general store of
Hofins & Wilson at about o'clock a. m
of Friday, the 25th of August. The pro-
prietors had been missing articles from
the store for some time and had en-
| loyed the city marshal and Mr. Sterling
to watch at night, and the result was
that on Friday morning about o'clock
they heard some one enter the store.
They at once ordered him to throw up
his hands, in place of which the person
started to run. He was fired upon by
the marshal and was seriously wounded
| in the right arm and also fell into a
trap that had been set to catch who
ever had been in the habit of entering
the store at night. After the marshal
and Mr.. Sterling got the person out and
| discovered that it was an old gentle
man by the name of Andrus they took
him over to the Office of DIR. Russ, who
found the bullet imbedded against the
bone in his arm, just below the elbow.
4 For some reason no complaint was filed
until late in the afternoon of Friday.
when the marshal filed an information
before Justice e. j. Flynn. who at once
issued a warrant, and in the evening
Mr.. Andrus was brought before the
lcourt and the information read to him
which was a charge of burglary, To
/ which he pleaded guilty. Justice Flynn
fixed the bail for appearance before the
grand jury at $500, which was after
ward, on the advice of County Attorney
Gordon, reduced to 5000, and Mr.. Andrus
was placed in charge of the constable
until he should secure bondsmen. But
| it seems that Andrus was allowed to go
and come as he pleased and the result
was that he skipped, and now the con-
4 stable is wondering .'Urhere he is al 80
