'"rhe special work of this conven-

sands of other representative men. In
all lines Of business and professions.
"The unprecedented success Of the
Maine law, in closing up the illegal
traffic in liquors, in that state, during
the past three months, and the closing
of the saloons on Sunday, in Missouri,
by reasons of the power extended to the
governor, has awakened the good peo-
pie of Iowa to the great possibilities
and ar-reaching beneficial results to
be obtained by the passage of the
marshal bill.
THE closing of the saloons on Sun
day. and the suppression of the illegal
sale of liquors in all parts of the state
by the state enforcement of the laws
we now have, is the object and purpose
of the state marshal movement. This
organization does not ask for any
change in the present laws; but will
insist that the reign Of liquor lawless-
ness and Sunday saloons be speedily
brought to an end by the sovereign
powers of the state. Several of Iowa
representative men will be invited to
address the convention. The last meet
ing had over 200 delegates and the or

then.

 RENEW FIGHT
Battle Near That Will Decide New Russian Generals Ability to Cope With Oyama In The Last Ditch
From the Fairbanks News,

lCUNSHU PASS, April 3. A renew - al of fighting between the two main bodies may be resumed any mo- ,ment. The Russian army officers are concentrating their entire force seven ty miles north of Tie Pass. where it is expected they will make determined stand against the advance of the Jap- anese.
 General Oyama is screening the movement of his main body behind the play of cavalry. But even the short respite given the Russians has enabled them to get into some kind of fighting trim. Fresh troops have greatly streng- thened the army, and the next fight will be something in the nature of real test between General Oyama and General Linevitch, the recently appoin- ted Russian general who succeeded General Kuropatkin.

SATURDAYS PROCEEDINGS


The audiences at the Koch trial yes
terday and today were very large. Yes
terday, being Good Friday, the schools
were closed, and many of the older
students took advantage of the fact to
take in the trial. There was no school
today and this in part accounted for the
crowd that was on hand today. A large
proportion of the afternoon audience
is composed of ladies. Some of them
remain throughout the session, while
others come and go, and their places are
taken by others.
just before the adjournment yester-
day afternoon, Judge Cray ordered Clerk
Thorne to issue third special yenire
for twenty talesmen, to be given to
Coroner Kennedy for service As it was
Good Friday and legal holiday, when
no summons can be served, the court
ordered that the yenire be not served
until this morning, and directed that
those summoned as taIesmen appear
in court at ten o'clock this forenoon.
Coroney Kennedy was therefore oblig-
I ed to pick talesmen in this city.
The states witnesses were subpoened
for today, and there was quite bunch
of them over from New Ulm. It had
been previously agreed between the
court and the attorneys that no evi-
denee should be taken today, even if
the jury was completed, and The states
witnesses were told to be ON hand Mon
day. It is the intention that if the
jury is completed in time today, for
the state to open its case to the jury.
Thomas Dooley was ON the stand
some time yesterday afternoon, trying
to make it appear that while he had
formed an opinion it was only very
slight one that would yield to evidence.
The triers found the challenge of the
defense for actual bias to be true.
j. H. Stewart of this city was call
led. The defense had no challenge. The
state challenged for implied bias. The
juror said1that fae had no conscientious
scruples against .espitaI punishment and
