its members that the Rev. Mr.. Haynes
had on one occasion taken advantage
of the clerical rates given him in or
der to secure tickets for Miss Gray

railroad officials, was illegal and fraud,

the purchase of these tickets, but dis
claims having any knowledge at the

founded the money Immediately upon
having his attention called to the irreg-

that railroad employee was RESPONSE

Should the Numerous charges stand

Haynes will be requested to resign

A CHICAGO SENSATION.
Rev. Myron Havne-, Prominent Bap-
fist, Involved.


Des Moines. Aug %. - Facing the
allegation that he secured vacation
from his Chicago congregation in or
der to fill the pulpit of the First Bap-
fist church of this city, and that he
broke his Des Moines engagement to
go west with James E. Gray and fam
lily and Miss Nellie Gray from Chicago,
who met him here, the Rev. Ny
ron w. Haynes of the Belden avenue
Baptist church, Chicago, is the CEN
ter of sensation in the windy city,
in which the Western Passenger asso-
citation charges him with fraud in cir
culars which are being spread broad
cast.
Talk Of church trials, and various
imputations are being hurled about
Chicago church circles, and owing to
the prominence of the clergyman
much newspaper space is taken up
with the airing of the affair.
The Rev. Mr.. Haynes is the presi-
dent of the Association of Baptist
Churches of Illinois, pastor of the Bel
den avenue Baptist church. and pres
ident of the Baptist Orphanage at May
wood
The allegations are that Miss Gray
was On her way to Seattle with her
brother, Haynes secured a leave of
absence from his church in order, as
he claimed, to preach from the pull.
pit of the First Baptist church in
Des Moines. Investigation showed
that although the Rev. Mr.. Haynes
left Chicago at this time and arrived
in the city almost simultaneously with
the Gray family, he did not fill his en-.
gagement with the local church, and
left for Omaha the following morning
on the same train with Miss Gray.
Certain other charges brought

kIRkVILLE WOMAN ACCUSED OF
MURDER is NOT HELD TO
GRAND JURY.
EVIDENCE INCOMPLETE
Justice M. L. Kirk Releases Defend
ant After Hearing Arguments by
Attorneys for the State and for Mrs.
Harris-case Watched With Much
Interest
From Tuesdays Daily.

From Tuesdays Daily.
MRS. Mary Harris, charged with the
murder OF her husband, James M. Har-
ris, was ordered released by Justice
M. L. Kirk this afternoon at the close
OF the arguments of the attorneys on
the motion for the dismissal of the
case on the grounds of insufficient evil
dence. The decision of Justice Kirk
was greeted with hearty applause from
the spectators and many friends
crowded around Mrs. Harris to con-
graduate her on the result of the hear
ing.
The opening argument on the motion
this morning was made by Captain w.
H. G. Jaques and he was followed by
Attorney Seneca Cornell, who assisted
County Attorney Epps in the prosecu-
ton. County Attorney w. w. Epps
then spoke and the closing argument
was made by Attorney A. C. Steck this
afternoon.
Opening Argument.
Captain w. H. G. Jaques said in
part:
The case is remarkable one in
that the state has proved complete
alibi for the defendant. 1t was shown
by its own witness that the defendant
was at another place at the time the
crime was committed, if a crime was
committed. There is no evidence
that crime has been committed. If
murder was committed the man that
bounded James Harris to his death
and brought this pros ecution in an
attempt to send his widow to the gal
lows was responsible. No man ever
commits crime without motive
unless he Is insane.
when the state put Willie Harris
on the stand they say here is wit
ness we can vouch for They proved
by him that Mrs. Harris left the house
at 8 o'clock when Mr.. Harris was alive
and that she returned at 10 o'clock
and found him dead. Constable Nc.
Donough in his testimony said that
Mrs. Harris said before the coroner
that Mr.. Harris saw him coming on
Saturday morning. He said that he
could not possibly be mistaken in that
respect. The evidence of a man who
says he cannot be mistaken regarding
an oral statement should be regarded
with the closest scrutiny Few men
are so infallible that they cannot be
memory may cause them to put an
entirely different construction on what
was said than the person making the
statement intended. The evidence
shows that he died from gunshot
wound in the head, that he could have
done It himself
1.-THE testimony of all the witnesses
Is to the effect that the head of Mr.
Harris was right close to the head of
the bed and that it would have been
impossible for any one to have shot
him without shooting through the head
board. There was no evidences of
any other wound on the body. There
was some discoloration between the
scalp and skull at the back part of the
head which connected with the other
wound and which DR.. Mills said was
probably caused by the bullet inter
fering with the circulation of the
scalp. and thus causing congestion of
the blood and discoloration.

that the man had been killed and then
put in the bed. There was blood no
place about the house. but on and
