Murphy and Conroy planned the rob-

$4,000. or $1,000 for each count. The
officers at Clinton received the infor-
nation which led to all these indict-
ments from George Burrier. noted

OWNS EIGHTY-THREE EsrArEs
Emperor William Has "a Big Landed
Interest to Look After, and 53
Castles to Shelter Him.

Emperor William owns SO estates,
besides SO castles. These estates foot
up 100000 acres, and the income from
them is about 100000.
But several of the great landed pro.
prietors, the prince of Pless and the
duke OF Ratibor among them, have far
more extensive landed possessions
than their imperial master.
However, the emperor's property is
big enough to require an evsr-increas-
ing army of agents to look after it and
is constantly increasing. It il not an
uncommon thing for German prince
or wealthy owner of landed estates
to leave house or land to the en-
peror. This was the case of the castle
and the estate Of Cadinen, where the
empress spends her happiest days.
Enormous sums go to the support
OF the SO castles. The emperor has
only visited 30 of the SO, yet he is build
ing another castle on huge scale in
the town Of Posen to be Prussian
royal residence among the Poles.
Perched on three Of the most pictur-
esque crags on the ravine are three of
the amperor's most interesting castles.

cummlns Opens His Campaign.

Governor A. B. Cummins opened the
Iowa Republican campaign Saturday
night before 1000 persons at Des
Moines. The meeting was under the
auspices of the Polk County Republi-
can club, and It's president. Colonel
A. B. Shaw, presided. Governor Cum
minis said he hoped the outcome Of the
election this fall would demonstrate
to the nation that there we're 100000
more men in Iowa who believed in the
principles of protection than believed
In free trade, who believed that the
Republican way of dealing with trust
evils was better than the Democratic
way. and who believed that Theodore
Roosevelt represented the highest
type of American citizenship. The
governor said since the Democratic
platform did not mention state affairs,
he would pass state issues until later
speech. and he devoted his entire time
to defense of the principle of protec-
ton as opposed to the doctrine of
tariff "for revenue only" which he de-
fined as free trade He predicted that
reciprocity would become the most
considered question of all public ques-
lions within the next quarter of a CEN
tnry. and said we ought speedily to
establish reciprocity with Canada, a
country just fairly started in it's de-
velopment, and whose markets in all
manufactured articles we ought to sup
ply by reason of the ease of cur access

Drank Beer with a Juror.

A sensation developed at Storm
Lake In the district court in the case
OF Snyder vs.. Runchie. The case was
called and a jury impaneled and wit
ness examined. Later it developed
that the plaintiff with one of his wit
nesses visited one of the jurors in the
hotel at night and drank beer, which
was furnished by the plaintiff. The at
torneys for the defense filed a motion
for continuance and the plaintiff and
juror and one or two others were ex-
amined before the court to ascertain
the facts. The court granted con.
tinuance with strong censure of the
persons concerned. The plaintiff was
taxed with all the costs in the case, an
attorney fee for the defendant and a
fine OF $40. His entire costs will ag-
gregate about $3.50.

New Law . Failure

An effort is being made over the
state to create sentiment that will
result In some action by the next state
legislature to repeal law governing
the reports of births and deaths. A
law was enacted two years ago that
left the compilation of these statistics
with the township assessor, relieving
the physicians of Iowa from the work.
1t has proved ineffective, it is said,
and the returns made by the assessors
IN the past two years have been so in
complete that the statistics have prov
ed of little value. An effort will be
made to return to the old method.

F. M. Hubbell Of Des Moines, presi-
dent OF the Equitable Life Insurance
company, banker and railroad broker
has transferred his entire estate,
which is estimated to be worth 81
100000, to himself and two sons. as
trustees, to be held by them and sue
ceeding trustees for the benefit of his
heirs. He makes q provision that no
part of it shall be sold and that it is
to be held intact until twenty-on years
after the death Of all present living
heirs. The youngest is now aged
seven years and it is figured this will
bring the trusteeship to close at the
end of the century. If at that time
there are no living heirs he provides
that his wealth shall go to the state
for the erection Of university in Des
Moines. Mr. Hubbell has three chill
dren-the Countess Whchtmeister
now living in Paris; Fred G. Hubbell
of Des Moines, and Grover G. Hubbell.
a student in Yale college. The eldest
son has two children. If at the end of
one hundred years there are any lineal
descendants the property is to be di-
vided, share and share alike. The
deed includes disinheriting clause,
for any one who becomes spendthrift
and provides that the $15O,O00 resi-
dence on Grand avenue shall be main
tanned by the trustee for the eldest
living descendent. Most of the estate
consists of Des Moines property and
stock in local banks. Mr.. Hubbell
owns the Des Moines Union railroad
and holds stock in practically every
bank In the city. The maker of this,
the largest individual transfer ever
known in Iowa and the most novel
disposition of property chronicled in
the West. is sixty-five years of age and
IN good health. His wealth is so d.
vided that lawyers have estimated it
would cost 100000 to probate the es-
tate.
