completely cured but now he is we'll

Metaphorical Bomb Exploded at vinton
When DR.. BelIer WEEDS Alfredo
Stoecker-Prosecutio Relied on Her
Testimony to Convict BeIler of Try
ing to Dynamite Home of Miss Hill.

Special to Times Republican.
yinton, Dec. S0.-Dr. Beller. who was
recently arrested for attempting to dy-
Mantle the home of the girl who would
not marry him, has burst metaphori-
Ical bomb in this locality by his sudden
marriage to young Alfredo Stoecker,
depended upon in pushing its case.
Miss Stoecker is one of Garrison's
well known young ladies', yet in her
teens. and is the young lady who it is
understood has made the sworn state
ment to the officers since the arrest of
the doctor on charges growing out of
the receipt of several anonymous let
tiers by members of the Hill family and
Others Of this place on the approach
ing marriage of Miss Della Hill, the
former fiancee of DR.. Beller, and the
finding of the dynamite at the Hill
home.
Miss Stoecker is daughter of the
family with whom the young physician
has been boarding for some time past,
and her statement, now in the possess
sion of the officers, is thought to have a
very important bearing upon the pur-
chase and placing of the dynamite
where found.
This apparently hasty move on the
part of DR.. Beller is thought by many
here to have, as one purpose. the pre-
vention of Miss Stoecker's appearance
against him at the hearing set for
Wednesday before Justice Connell on
the grave charges now pending against

for failure to work without leave of abb
sence and that the amount of his award
shall be adjudicated by the executive
committees of the two organizations
The operators contend that the loss
of time is the greatest evil they have to
contend with and will insist that some
adequate remedy for 1t be provided.
1t is generally conceded that the
miners at the joint conference will
make demand for an increase in
wages. 1t is expected that minimum
|scale of 81 a ton for screened coal in the
central and southern portions OF the
state will be asked for. There is feel
ing that this demand will have to be
conceded for the reason that many of
the operators during the rush of bust
ness of the past few months have vol
unfairly paid this amount as an induce
nent to the miners to work for them
and are still paying it and in mines
where the price is but 80 cents.
There is little probability tho that
this advance will be granted until the
miners make concessions for the pro-
lection Of the operators against lost
time.

Special to Times Republican.
Ackley. Dec. 30.-This town is not in
the straits for fuel that some would
have 1t appear. True no hard coal is to
be had; but there are several hundred
tons of soft coal in the sheds here, be-
sides cars on the way from the east.
The trouble with the heating plant is
that they have made it a practice to
keep only few days supply on hand,
and when the tie-up on the Iowa Cen
trail came the plant quickly exhausted
its coal. supply. They bought their Goa.
at the mines and shipped over the Iowa
Central, and never took any coal from
local dealers, and for that reason the
local dealers did not feel that they could
supply the large quantity used at the
heating plant and take chance on q
temporary shortage for their own Gus
toners. However, one dealer furnished
the heating plant with part of car on
Friday before any was secured from the
Iowa Central. Now arrangements have
been made by which coal from the Iowa
Centraps supply here will be turned
over to the heating plant as needed
There will be no freeze-out here.
