covered casket while homage was
paid the dead by the great men of

the galleries began to fill with people
holding cards of admission. The
hearse with the remains, and the car

an escort Of mounted police, left the
Hotel Arlington at eleven o'clock,and
slowly wended its way to the capitol,
where the casket was reverently
placed on the same catafalque occu-
pied two years ago by the martyrec
President Mckinley. Just before the
noon hour the president, his cabinet,
members OF the supreme court, the
diplomatic corps Lieut.. Gen. Chaffee,
and members of the senate and house
took their places. Mrs. Hanna and
other mourners sat in front OF the
rCstrum, the widow sustaining her
self with much bravery. In deep si-
,lence Chaplain Hale invoked the d.

MRS. LEWIS ON TRIAL
Ottumwa Photographer Gives Con-
victing Evidence.
Special to Daily Herald.

special 10 daily Herald.
Sigourney, Feb. 17.-Sitting uncon
cernedly in the court room, Mrs. Belle
Lewis, on trial for her life, listened
to the testimony of the states wit
nesses today.
The most sensational evidence in
troduced by the state was that oi
Bert Gillette, the photographer, OF
Ottumwa. He testified that on OF
about the 1st of October, 1908, Mrs
Belle Lewis, the defendant, who is
charged with poisoning her husband
and one Ira M. Glassford, called at
his gallery and had their pictures
taken together. 1t has been claimed
by the state that Mrs. Lewis and
Glassford were on intimate terms
they having been seen -. together a
number of times in Sigourney and
Ottumwa, and it is alleged that ii
was not unusual for them to take
trips clandestinely together.
Other evidence was introduced to
tle effect that Mrs. Lewis had pur
chased poison at the drug store in
Hedrick and Fremont.
Thos. Lappin, a laborer, testified
that he was at the Lewis home on the
eventful Sunday morning and had
seen the defendant empty part OF
the contents Of small vial, presum
ably poison in her husbands medicine

os the state of Iowa against Margaret
Hossack, indicted in Warren county
for the murder of her husband, John
Hossack, on the night of December 1,
1900, was dismissed in the district
court here today on motion of the
county attorney, w. S. Cooper. This
action closes a cause that has been
pending in the courts of Iowa for over
three years, during which time the
case has been tried in the district
courts of Warren and Madison coun-
ties and in the supreme court of the
state, and Mrs. Hossack, woman OF
6S,has spent year and three months
in the state penitentiary. The jury
in Warren county found her guilty of
murder in the first degree and the
Madison county jury failed to agree,
The crime occurred on the morning
of Sunday, Dec. 2, 1900, when john
Hossack was found in bed murdered
his head having been split open by
an ak. Mrs. Hossack said she was
awakened by noise like two boards
clapping together, saw flash on the
wall of the bedroom and then heard
the outer door of the sitting room
close.
Soon after, however, people began
telling of troubles between her and
say she wished he was dead. Upon
recommendation of the county attor
ney Mrs. Hossack was arrested as
she was leaving her husbands oper
grave in New Virginia cemetery the
next Wednesday.
An indictment of murder in the
first degree was returned by the Jan
uary grand jury and the defendant
denied bonds.

SENSATIONAL SURPRISE
SPRUNG IN KUHN CASE
Special to Daily Herald.

Special to Daily Herald.
Des Moines, Feb. ia startling
bit of evidence which may result in
the exoneration of young and beauti-
full Sarah Kuhn, now serving in the
| penitentiary for the murder of her
husband, Charles Kuhn,was produced
before the joint pardon committee Of
j the senate and house.
- Le Z, !. y IL -
1t was in the form of an affidavit
from Mrs. Laura Markwick, formerly
Laura Covey, who was an office g.rl
in the Office of DR.. Martin at Delta.
She testifies that DR.. Martin was Civ
ing Kuhn medical treatment, and that
upon several occasions she carried a
bottle of strychnine to Kuhn. DR..
Martin, by whom she was employed,
moved to another town, and later
died. She claims her testimony was
submitted without the knowledge of
reither Sarah Kuhn or of her attor-
neys.
Great stress is laid upon the afls
davit as bearing out the theory of the
attorneys for Sarah Kuhn that Kuhn
had either made a mistake by taking
too much strychnine or had purpose
ly committed suicide, throwing sus-
picion upon his young wife, of whom
he was Jealous with the insane jeal-
ouSy of an old man.
The pardon hearing, which promises
to be the cause celebre of the present
session of the legislature, was begun
yesterday afternoon. The reading of
the affidavit of Mrs. Markwick was
not the only dramatic incident con-
nected with the opening of the hear
ing on the case, which has come %
be known as the Mrs. Maybrick case
of Iowa. Another was the reading of
the dissenting opinion, filed by Judge
Weaver of the supreme court, when
u affirmed the decision of the
-. :, thus passing finally upon
a life sentence for Sarah Kuhn.
The opinion was read by c.. R.
Brown, an attorney from Sigourney,
and fairly sizzled. Probably it is the
most sensational dissenting opinion
ever filed in Iowa by a justice of the
| supreme court. For about twenty
typewriter pages Judge Weaver ar,

views the evidence i, dIc1 resulted in
the conviction of the woman who Is
now serving life term Of imprison-
ment.
Sarah Kuhn was Is years of age
when she married Charles Kuhn.
Kuhn was more than twice her age,
and a physical wreck. In the trial
she testified she had never had any
words with him except upon one occa-
sion when she reproached him Tor
having deceived her, for Kuhn was
not fit to enter the marriage relation.
The theory of the prosecution at
the time of the murder was that there
were intimate relations existing be-
tween Sarah Kuhn and one Andy
Smith. 1t was hoped by convicting
Sarah Kuhn to secure a confession
from her which would implicate Andy
Smith, who was supposed to be an ac-
cessory. Sarah Kuhn was convicted,
but is serving her sentence in silence.
If she knows more than she tells, ,frm
resolve has sealed her lips. ~.
Judge Weaver, in his dissenting
opinion, calls attention to the fact
that the only evidence upon which
the connection between Sarah Kuhn
and Andy Smith is based Is a frag-
mentary conversation which neigh
Dor woman overheard. Smith and
Sarah Kuhn were in the doorway of
barn and she made the mistake OF
discussing her domestic relations
with him and admitted that she was
not happy. There was no manifesto
tion of affection or regard. Incidents
previous to iler marriage were
brought up, but Judge Weaver ridi
culed them and showed how falla
cious they were. ''If she had been
educated and refined" he said, "she
would not have discussed her domes
tic life with any outsider, but lack oi
education and of refinement is nc
