Fortunate Turn of a Criminal
Case Pending In the Dis
trict Court
DlsLIkED TO TRY 1T
Railroad Laborer Indicted on Charge
Of sodomy Decides to Throw Himself
on the Mercy of the Court and Enters
a Plea of Guilty-Will Probably Be
Sentenced Tuesday Morning at 9.

William Andrews, railroad laborer
who was arrested last January upon
a warrant charging one of the most
awful crimes of the criminal calendar,
sodomy, has decided to trust himself to
the mercy of the court. Andrews case
was set for today, but he decided Fri
day afternoon to plead guilty. He was
taken into court and entered his plea,
and it is likely he will be sentenced
by Judge Burnham at 8 o'clock Tues
day morning.
There is general satisfaction ex-
pressed among the attorneys over the
fortunate termination Of the case with
out trial. The law has to deal with
many crimes in which there is no salts
faction for either court or the bal to
deal, when it comes to bringing out
|evidence. The states case against the
prisoner was conclusive enough. and
would have undoubtedly resulted In
a conviction If it had been tried. The
horror, however, of bringing before the
public the distasteful details OF so foul
a crime is done away with by the pris-
oner's plea, and every one interested is
pleased.
The crime to which Andrews pleads
guilty was committed in the latter part
OF January. The victim of the pervert
was Freddie Buchanan, aged years
son Of Albert Buchanan, living on South
First street, near Nevada. Andrews
made his escape when the father re-
turned home after a brief action and
realized what had been done, but was
captured a few days later near Car
roll.

Since Marshalltown's street cars have
not been running to the depots the pub
tic has been able to appreciate what
the service means. The South Third
avenue line is by far the most import
ant portion, from a traffic standpoint,
the street car company operates, and
when the cars are compelled to be ou'
of service temporarily the absence OF
their use is very noticeable.

OLD SOLDIER INSANE.
Nathan Haekley, of the Home, Ar
raisned for Third Time Before Com


missioners.
Nathan Hackley, a member of the
Soldiers Home, aged about 75 years,
was arrested Friday afternoon by Sher-
if Shoemaker and Deputy Sheriff Hut
sor, charged with insanity. an infor-
nation having been fled before the
clerk OF the district court by Chief Sur
geon IL. p. Dufiield. Hackley was Civ
EN- hearing, and the evidence was for
warded to the state board of control for
an opinion. and instructions. Hackley
is not a legal resident Of this county,
and there is some doubt ms to just what
county he does belong. 1t may be that
he will have to become state charge
rather than county.
Haekley has been in the asylum be-
fore, having been sentenced from this
county in 1897. He served two years at
Mount Pleasant and in January, 1899.
was discharged and returned to the
Home. 1t will be remembered that
Hackley, while supposedly insane, at
tempted to shoot Former Commandant
j. r. Ratekin several years ago, during
the pension troubles at the Home.
While Haclsley has has not been con-
sidered harmful during the past few
years he has. of late, been growing
worse. In his spells he has become vio-
lent. and attempted to cut one of the
guards at the Home and beat another
with cane. He was so violent before
his arrest that it was necessary to place
him in the guard house.
Haekley lived, at one time, at Oska-
loosa, but the Home records do not
snow that he ever had a legal residence
there. He has relatives in that city now,
and has often taken furloughs to visit
them. He was six months man dur
ing the civil war. serving in Company
c, Fourth Iowa infantry. He enlisted
in Guthrie county six months before the
close of the war. He care to the Home
on March 6. 1889. and held continuous
membership until he was sent to the
asylum.
