closed, the fact that her daughter-in-
law, Mrs. William Dunlap, is to be

was asked if she recalled the day
when she met her son Will and his
wife at her home and they had a con
sultation in bedroom concerning

in-law: If you tell this on iona it
will be hard on her. and did you not

her what iona had done for you

who believe iona is guilty of murder.

GIRL ENDS HER STORY

Defense is Gen.
cluded.
SHE STICKS TO HER DENIALs
Efficacy of Strychnine for Corns
Testified to BY Iowa City
Nurse.
SHE STICKS TO HER DENIALs

Aledo, Dec 27.-With final and
general denial that she had ever pur-
chased strychnine for the purpose of
poisoning candy, and that she ever
had given such poisoned candy to
Miss Allie Dool for the purpose of
iniuring her. Miss iona Dunlap left
the witness stand yesterday after
noon. y few minutes later the last
bit of testimony for the defense had
been introduced, and the case had
been advanced to the rebuttal stage
for the prosecution. Then court adj
iuurned until this morning, after be-
ing in session little more than two
hours of the day.
The close of Miss DunIap's cross eX-
animation brought out the fact that
the friendship which she declared eN-
listed between her and Miss Dool was
not of an intimate charactcr. Save
for the time i'm which she was en-
ployed in Felix's store with Miss Dool
she had been in the young woman's
society at parties or entertainments
only twice within Il period of nine
years. She admitted that she never
had called at the Dool residence, and
that Miss Dool had never been a Wis
itor at the Dunlap house.
Miss Dunlap Once Engaged.
In its questions on the subject of
friendship. the prosecution found it
an easy matter to disclose an uuhap-
py love affair of Miss Dunlap's just
AZ the defense revealed the estrange-
ment between Miss Dool and Frank
Owens, which ended in the breaking
of their engagement. Miss Dunlap,
with some hesitation. admitted that
she had been engaged to marry James
Roberts. but that the contract was
broken year ago last March.
Vigorous objections were made by
the state when the defense called
Mrs. S. y. CIeaver. of Burlington,
Iowa. to the stand as a witness who
nine as a cure for corns. Mrs. Cleaver
is rs years old, feeble little woman,
who few years ago was a nurse.
Il have used strychnine frequently
in the last 20 years" said Mrs. Cleav-
er, lin treating my corns. l have
found that it Will relieve the pain and
cure them for while, but not per-
manentiy. | have applied it as a so
luton when dissolved in alcohol. /
have used it as a paste on moistened
cloth, and as a salve made with fresh
lard" On cross examination Mrs.
CIeaver told States Attorney Graham
that she had been buying strychnine
at Churchill's drug store in Burling-
ton for over twenty years.
The ruling of the court on the adj
instability of Mrs. Cleaver's testimony
was a victory for the defense, but it
also opens the way for the state to
Introduce the expert testimony of
ermatolcgists. who will declare that
strychnine is of no more value as
remedy for corns than so much flour.
Mother and sister Recalled.
Mrs. Dunlap and her daughter, Miss
Bessie, were recalled by the state for
the purpose of asking them impeach-
ing questions, which, Attorney Scott
explained to the court, had been
overlooked at the proper time.

NO SERIOUS OUTCOME.
Sailors Trouble With the Russians
Will Not Amount to Much.
(By Associated Press.)

Washington, Jan. 9.-Although without
any further communication from Niu
Chwang respecting the trouble between
the sailors OF the Vlcksburg and the RUS
sian soldiers, the navy department ofl-
cials are confident that there VIII be
no serious outcome.
They have been very much hampered
In communicating with the Vicksburg by
their failure to secure the use Of the tel
egraph lines connecting Niu Chwang
with the cable system OF China.
Undoubtedly II this telegraph could be
used by the United States agents and
officers the least possibility Of further
trouble surely might be averted. As IL
Is, the Vicksburg must remain where
she Is for the winter, being ice-bound,
and for the same reason II Is impossible
to send another ship from the Asiatic
squadron to take her place.
Ahere is no intention of Withdrawing
United States representation at Niu
Chwang, which Is treaty port belonging
to China at which American interests
are as important as any port In Northern
China.

DOWAGER EMPRESS CONTINUES
TO BOSS THE EMPEROR.
OLD LADY is QUITE TIMID
Japanese and American Officers Who
Guarded Imperial Palace Will Be
Decorated--Anti-Fo Foreigner Gen.
eral Will Lose His Head.
(By Associated Press.)

Pekin. Jan, 9-All evidences indicate
that the emperor of China Is more COM
pletely under the domination of the
dowager empress than he was before the
Chinese court went into exile. Several
high officials were granted audiences to-
day, during which the emperor filled the
role Of figurehead. The empress
dowager sat on his majesty's left and
conducted the conversations. According
to the accounts of two OF the officials VINO
were received today, the dowager en-
press ignored the emperor and that the
latter did not attempt TO take any part
in the affairs. These persons say his
majesty appeared melancholy and list
less
The principal topic of conversation dur
ing these audiences was the presence in
Pekin of the foreign garrisons. The
dowager empress seemed impressed with
the necessity of a concllatory policy.
Evidence accumulates pointing to the
timidty of the dowager empress about
coming back to Pekin. Her first remark
upon alighting at the Machia Pu sta
ton yesterday was: Where are the
foreign soldiers?"
Bowed to the Correspondents.
Upon seeing a number of newspaper
dowager empress bowed to them. Before
leaving Pao Ting F'u in the special train
yesterday, the dowager empress request
ed Traffic Manager Foley of the rail-
road not to use the locomotive whistle,
saying that she was very nervous and
that the whistle frightened her.
The dowager empress purposed to dec
crate the American and Japanese Off
GERS who guarded the imperial palace
during the courts absence. She also
will confer decorations upon the officers
and engineers who had charge of the
imperial train during the railroad jour-
ney from Pao Ting Flu.
The dowager empress has signed an
edict ordering the decapitation of Gen.
eral Tung Fuh Slang. the notorious
anti-foreigner A Tartar general in Kan
su province has been ordered to carry
out this sentence.
Yam Shat Kai, the viceroy Of Chi Ii
province, and a number of other infiu-
entail officials memorialized the throne,
charging Tung Fuh Slang with the mur-
der Of Belgian missionaries and urging
his execution before he could institute
rebellion and involve China in trouble
with foreign governments.
