FARMER IS ON TRIAL
Faces a Jury on Rape Charge at
Fairfield.
DEFENDANT Is RICH AND RESPECTED
At the Time the Crime Was Alleged to
Have Been Committed Posse Was
Organized for Purpose Of Lynchins
Him-Other State News.

Fairfield April 3.-(SpeciaD In the
district court yesterday afternoon,
Judge Sloan began the case of the
state of Iowa VS.. George w. Snider,
who was indicted for an assault with
intent to commit rape.
Snider is considered wealthy farm
er and the parties all concerned bear
a good reputation and the case is be-
ing stubbornly fought on both sides.
The alleged crime is claimed to have
been committed on October 2, 1900,
and that night mob was organized
for the purpose of lynching, but the
city marshal of Richland forstalled
this by bringing his prisoner in a
round about way to this city. The
case is drawing big crowd to the city
and the court room is filled to over
flowing. 1t is predicted by some that
he will be found guilty, while there are
others who are strong in their belief
that spite work is at the bottom of the
whole case.

THE GREENvILLE OIL.
Investigation Proves Report of Gusher
Was LARGELY a Fake.

Spencer, April 3.-The Greenville
oil situation has been greatly exag-
gerated. The facts found after a
personal investigation at the scene of
the alleged oil wells are about as fol-
lows: small ravine and sort of
slough run thru one edge of the town.
AT point within the town limits five
streams of oil ooze out and cover the
surface of the water. The citizens sent
for a Pennsylvania oil man to come
and investigate. A sample of the oil
is now on exhibition at the Greenville
bank and appears to be the genuine
product and of good quality. There is
a possibility of the find amounting to
something, but the majority of the peo-
pie look upon the matter as fake.

SHAW IN The RACE
Friends Say He Will Seek Presi-
Dental Nomination.
CUMalNS INTERVIEWED YESTERDAY
J. w. Blythe Says He Has Heard That
Governor Shaw Will Be Candidate
Senator Allison is Not Factor in
the Contest.

Chicago, April 3.-Governor Leslie
NJ. Shaw of Iowa is said to be can
didate for the republican presiden-
ment is result of the recent visit to
Chicago of Senator Allison, Senator
Dolliver, and other leading Iowa re-
publicans. 1t is said to explain why
Governor Shaw was willing to sacri-
flee his senatorial aspirations in the
contest for the seat of former Senator
Gear.
1t is said that Governor Shaw's am
bition is of no recent growth, and that
he has been entertaining it since Sena-
tor Allison, who has for years been
put forward by Iowa republicans as a
presidential candidate, decided that
his advanced years would prohibit him
from making such race, even tho he
should receive the nomination.
Governor Shaw's purported ambi-
ton is said to have had to do with
the frequency with which he has APP
peared as campaign speaker in the
east during the last year or two. He
has also been conspicuous figure in
various public functions in the larger
cities of the east Governor Shaw,
however, has not confined his efforts
to the east, as he has spoken in most
of the middle and western states. Dur
ing the recent national campaign he
visited many states and became re-
garded by many as one of the strong
est speakers at the command of the
republican committee.
Senators Allison and Dolliver had
both left Chicago yesterday, but A. B.
Cummins of Des Moines, who is con.
sidered the leading candidate for the
republican nomination for governor
of Iowa, was in the city, as was J. w.
Blythe of Burlington, a leader in the
party. Both practically admitted that
Governor Shaw is presidential can,
didate for 1904.
Il am not authorized to speak for
Governor Shaw" said Mr.. Cummins
at the Auditoriuc Annex, but have
been given to understand it is expect.
ed he will enter the race for the presi
dental nomination in 1904. He has
many friends and admirers in various
parts of the country and can con
ceive of no reason why he is not a
most available man for the presidency
