Company from Any Blame
In Matter,

The inquest over Eddie Madsen, the 1S-
year-old boy who was electroeuted Tuesday
afternoon as a result of climbing one OF
the electric light oompanys poles, resulted
in the jury bringing in a verdict in which
no blame was attached to the company.
At the same time the jury recommended
that the Electric Light company place dan
ger signals on its poles carrying heavy
voltage wires. II also discussed a recon-
mendation that the company be required
TO place its wires underground, but as the
members were not agreed on this subject
II was not included in the verdict. Charles
Swaine ovide Wen and William Roper
comprised the jury.
Horace Greer L. Harle, Kenneth Harmon
and Earl Hart, the lads who we're playing
with eddie Madsen at the time Of the aeci-
dent. testified. Their stories corroborated
the statement made by Greer shortly after

JAMES WALKER GETS LIMIT OF THE LAW
tFrom a stafr CorrespondentD


DES MONIES, March Especial THE
board Of directors Of the State Department
Of Agriculture held a meeting today for
regular business, and among other things
appointed a committee to confer with the
board Of trustees Of the State college at
Ames in regard to the selection Of a presi
dent for that institution. The committee
appointed consists Of Ex-Governor Packard,
Marshalltown; c. w. Phillips, Msquoketa,
and John Ledgerwood, Leon. 1t Is the
sentiment of the State Board of Agricul-
ture that the president selected should be
Prof. S. F. Curtiss Of the chair of animal
ShusbaIdry Of the college, and this com
mittee was appointed with a view to urging
upon the college board the selection Of
Prof Curtiss. The trustees have made no
progress whatever in the selection of a
president OF the college to succeed the
late Dr. Bearshesr. The committee of the
board assigned to investigate has never
made any kind Of report on the subject
for no person has been found whom the
committee would care to recommend. The
name OF Prof. CuTtiss was suggested at
the outset, but at that time it was be-
lieved he would be more useful in his
present position, where he has given the
college a national standing, and he pre-
ferred TO remain there. But the sentl-
ment among the agricultural classes OF
the state has been turning toward Prof
Curtiss and 1t is believed now he will be

In the district court today Judge Given
sentenced James Walker, colored, to eight
years in the penitentiary for the murder Of
Isaac Finkelstein, on conviction for man
slaughter. The Judge, in passing sentence,
was especially severe on the defendant,
declaring his belief that the evidence had
shown him to be guilty of entering into
a conspiracy with Harry Levich to kill
Finkelstein and to have actually done tho
deed. The Judge scored Levich, who has
already been acquitted on the same charge,
and declared that the evidence in this case
showed beyond any doubt that it was
Levich who employed the colored man to
kill Finkelstein, and the motive for 1t was
found in his unreasoning hatred Of the
dead man. These declarations Of the court
created sensation, as they were unex-
pected and somewhat contrary to popular
effort Will be made to prosecute Levich in
some other way for his part in the crime.
