Pensacola Crime Has Greatly Puzzled the Omeials and Seems no Nearer Solution.--Pistol Carriers
 Fined.

 There Is now no clue to the name of the assassin. The case was sub mitted to the coroner's jury and that body has been trying for three days to get at the bottom of the affair, but there appears to be nothing in the way gineer, is still in custody. He is not charged with the murder but Is simply held until he can be cleared of the damaging evidence which has been adduced against him.
 Griffith made an extended statement to the jury last afternoon and this morning made another statement. He seems confident of being released.
 Griffith was associated with the ma rine Engineers Association, and ac- cording to his own statement, was short with the association some s200. Griffith's brother places the amount at
 
 sive., This, came out in the general tes- timony and 1t was stated that Grifith tried to borrow the money. He is said to have gone to the clubroom on the morning of the murder to borrow the amount or as much of 1t as he could get to. pay the indebtedness. He ob- tained some money that day and used 1t all in paying debts.

necia, to Times-Republican

Special to Times Republican,
Anes, March 1S.-It is with mucn
pleasure that the friends OF Prof. A
Marston. of the Iowa State College, have
received his decision to remain with
the school. The University of Wiscon-
sin recognized in Professor Marstou
his true worth. and extended to him an
invitation to accept position in that
school at an advanced salary. This
decision to remain with the Ames coll
lege is a considerable financial loss to
Professor Marston, altho his salary has
Keen raised to $4,000 year. The uni
versity's offer included salary OF
5000 a year as professor of civil en-
cheering, and in addition not less than
$500 a year as an expert on structures
To the state railroad commissioner. Not
only the advance in salary, but the uni
versity is we'll equipped with labora-
tories, which would be of great advan-
tage to Professor Marston in carrying
on his research work in sewage dispo-
sal and water supply. He came to the
Iowa State College in 1892 as profess
sor of civil engineering and has been
college engineer since 1898.

establishment of single board of con-
troll for the three state educational in

DR.. Mary E. Mosely Of Cedar
Rapids Caught With the
Goods
FORMERLY RAN MEDICINE SHOW
Search of Her Apartments Reveals
Hundreds of Dollars Worth of stoI-
len Artices-The Doctors Taste Ran
to Fine Silks and openwork Hos
iery.
Special to imes-Republican.

| Special to Tmes-Republican-
Cedar Rapids. March 1S.-Dr. Mary
E, Mosely was turned over to the po-
lice late yesterday AFTERNOON charged
with theft DR.. Mosely was observed
at the Fair store while vainly endeav-
on!ng to conceal about forty yards OF
silk and a scarf under her fur coat.
She was detained and turned over to
officer Mcclure. Her rooms at 217
First avenue, were visited and search
made of both the doctors office and the
doctors houdoir, dining room and
kitchen. AS a result of that search
half a wagon load of property is now
at the police station. all of which is
supposed to have been stolen by Mrs.
Mosely. The goods found at her office
were mostly silk and dress goods tho
there were some laces and openwork
hosiery. The police estimate that the
fetal value of the property taken from
her room will run into the hundreds
of dollars.
Mrs. Mosely seems to have had a
picturesque career, according to the
In Iowa City and either owned AN In
dian medicine show with which she
travelled, or was hired agent of the
company. For time the show was
successful. There are some reports that
| Mrs. Mosely was married at that time
to member of the Iowa City police
force, but these rumors may not be well
founded.
While in this city Mrs. Mosely has
retained her former name but her real
name is Ross, having been married to
| gentleman of that name, who wept
sorely at the police station last night
| when he learned of the plight his doctor
wife was in. They embraced and wept
on each others necks and the scene
| at the police station was somewhat out
| OF the ordinary. Mrs. Mosely declared
that she should die Of the disgrace, but
up to the time of going to press her
prediction had not been fulfilled. She
is lady of much dramatic talent and
as she raised her eyes to the ceiling
and clasped her hands protested her
innocence. She and her husband SEEM
ed to be deeply affected.
