.M'kNIGHT MUST STAND TRIAL.
Woodbury. County Grand Jury Finds
Indictment for First Degree Muir

Special to Times-Republican.
Sioux City, Sept. Ben Mcknight
who killed his wife last June while beat
ing her, has been indicted by the grand
jury. The jury in its report to Judge f.
r. Gaynor sprung somewhat of a sur
prise by returning an Indictment
against Mcknight for the most serious
crime in the Iowa statutes, while he had
been bound over merely for murder in
the second degree. Evidently the grand
jury secured new evidence bearing upon
the malicious intent of the alleged as
saults of the prisoner upon his wife. Its
action will give Woodbury. county it's
first murder trial in good many years.
and the proceedings will be followed
with interest.
Altho the grand Jury made an investi-
cation of the killing of Joe Sullivan,
Snowman. at Correctionville last satur-
day night a week ago. no Indictment
was brought against Harley Cave.

Tho Ronaparte Dam,

Des Moines, Sept. 2.-Messrs Hugh
and Kirk Meek, of Bonaparte, owners of
the famous Bonaparte dam, were in the
city Saturday, visiting friends. They
expressed themselves as jubilant over
the fact that they now have an unques-
tionable title to the dam and one which
can not be invalidated by the state. AS
to whether it was for sale or not Mr..
Kirk Mech said: I'VE are not anxious
to sell it now, and if we should sell it
good price will be asked. A few years
ago the state had us scared and we
would have sold 1t at that time for $780,
900. Indeed, we made that offer. 1t could
not be bought for anything like that
amount now, for we have clearer title,
and, indeed, do not care to sell at any
price. II the state wants it, it will have
to pay our price. Considerable money
has been expended during the past year
in repairing the dam and it Is now in
good condition. We use it to run our
mills when the water is not too low.
During the summer the water power S
not sufficient and we are compelled to
use steam power. A system Of water
works is also being installed in Bona
parte, which will depend on the dam for
water pressure. This will add greatly
to its value. AT present We are not
anxious to, sell it,

Rev. easneil, Of Sioux City, Offered 4
New York Pastorate

New York Passionate.
Is New York, Sept 2.-Rev. Robert Bag
nell, pastor of the First Methodist
church of Sioux City. Ia, has been
called to the chief pastorate Of the Met
ropolitan temple in this city. which is
one of the largest Protestant churches
in the United States.
Rev. Mr.. Bagnell preached at the
Metropolitan temple three Sunday dur
Ing the month of August and the mem
bers of the congregation were so much
pleased with him that before he left for
Sioux City they asked him to become
their pastor. 1t is understood Rev. Mr..
Bagnell stated to the church authori-
ties that he would reserve his decision
until he had acquainted the officials Of
the Sioux City church with the offer
which had been made him.
The Metropolitan Temple is located on
Seventh avenue. below Fourteenth
street, and is great down town church.
The congregations average from 1900 to
1900 people. Perhaps no church in New
York has larger average congregation
than the Metropolitan temple. 1t was
in this church that Ulysses s. Grant
.worshipped after he was president Of
the United States, and his pew is
marked with tablet. Bishop Newman
was pastor of the church before he was
made a bishop. Rev. Andrew Longacre
and Rev. Fancis Bottome are among the
many others who have officiated as pas
tors during the churchs long history.
The last pastor was Rev. DR.. S. p. Cad
man, who about six months ago re-
signed to become pastor of the Central
Congregational church of Brooklyn.
Rev. Mr. Bagnell, as pastor in chief,
will have three assistant pastors. They
are Rev. F. j. Belcher, d. D.; Rev. T..
NJ. Bond and Rev. George Mayer. The
church supports also deaconess and
lay missionary.
The favorable impression that the
young Sioux City preacher made was
general. Each Sunday he preached to
a good congregation. in spite of the fact
that the summer weather invariably in
terferes seriously with church attend
ance in New York. Rev. Mr. Bagnell
did not come to New York as eandi-
date, but he created such a favorable
impression that the members OF the
church felt they would like him as a
pastor.
The fact that the chief passionate has
been vacant six months and that during
that time the officers of the church have
been making diligent search for a
siderable to the compliment which has
been paid the young Sioux City minister
by the call.

days at Niagara Falls and Buffalo, a

thing to say when last night ne was
shown the telegram from New York
which had followed him to Sioux City.
He was very good natured, but refused
to either affirm or deny the report

For some time a survey of the pro- posed San Diego-E,astern railroad has been in progress between the bay and Yuma, and it is understood that the work as far as the latter point will be completed within a few days. The ob- jective terminus of the line is Phoenix, and the Sa,n Diego papers state that shortly a delegation from that city will visit this valley with the purpose of arousing interest among our people. While we have noted from time to time the interest and enthusiasm man. ifested at San Diego during the past few months. it has been difficult to learn much of the financial end of the proposition. The promoters of the great Imperias canal system are said to have some connection with the rail- roa project. and their success with the irrigation enterprise will undoubtedly give them a prestige of value in push irg the Yuma Phoenix lire.

It is not a good time for either Ger: many or Venezuela to have a row with one another, although there Is the making of one in the trouble at Porto Cabella- The fifty German sailors on shore leave were unarmed, and doubt less a good many of them were well toward being drunk. The police of the port joined the popu.ace in giving them a very hot time. and that is not what the police are for. On the other hand. the armed men sent by the vineta to the rescue of the shore party were careful not to go upon Venezu- elan territory. but carried on their operations from the deck of q German ship lying at the wharf. So far the proceedings on each side about matched the other. with a little advan- tage in regularity on the side of the Germans. The attack by the Venez- ulean police upon the two German petty officers, however. is more ser ious. Both these officers were waiting by the boats to take the German sail orss off to the vineta: both were un- armed, both were sober and both were wounded badly. If the story told is correct, venezuela's apologies and re- gre:s are the next thing in order
