REACHES OVER THE STATE.
Mean to Extend Influence Of Des
Moines Revival Over Iowa.

Des Moines, Dec. 14.-As a result
of enthusiastic meetings held in the
city yesterday at what is known as
the conference day" in the Chapman
revival meetings, all of Iowa may be
affected by the evangelistic movement
now on in Des Moines
In response to invitations fully one
hundred ministers from town scatter
ed over the state were told Of the
wonderful good which has come out
of the Chapman meetings. DR.. Breed
conducted the services at the Central
Christian church in the morning when
the local ministers of all denomina-
tions testified in glowing terms of the
great good that had already been done
The Chapman workers were unani-
mously termed the most powerful
preachers of the gospel ever heard
here
The ministers told of the beautiful
spirit which had prevailed among the
different denominations. They said
tnat they felt sure there would be no
falling away after the meetings had
closed, as had been the case in other
campaigns.
The visiting ministers were guests
of the evangelists and local pastors at
a lunch at the Savery.

GIVEN RELEASE

the demurrer of the defendant In the
a&se of the stats of hSwa against Hugh
B. Sloan of Van Buren county, which
is here on a change of venue, and
which will have the effect of releas-
Ing the defendant from the charges In
the indictment. He was indicted in
Van BureE county some months ago
on the charge of embezzling several
thousand dollars while trustee for
Bates Manning, minor. The defense
contended in the demurrer that the

did not include trustees, and Judge
Smyth took that view Of the matter.

the bench in the second judicial dis
trict, and was represented In the argu-
ments by Judge Leggett of Fairfield,
Judge Mitchell of Ottumwa and w. F.
Kopp of this city, while the state was
represented by County Attorney Nc
Cold of Van Buren county, and j. G.
McCoid Of this city. A year or so ago
Sloan was sued by Manning for an sac-
counting in Van Buren county in a
civil suit ard Manning won out with a
judgment of good size, and this case,
based on the same circumstances as
the criminal case now closed is in the
supreme court, Sloan having appealed
to that tribunal.

LAW is HIT AGAIN.
Enactment Favoring Soldiers Gets
Jolt in Des Mones.

Des Moines, Dec. 14-Judge
Brennan gave the old soldiers
preference law another black eye yes
terday afteronon when he directed a
verdict in favor of w. w. Wise, and
]. w. Campbell as members of the
board of public works against Melvin
Stone. who has been trying to be
street commissioner.
Stone applied for the job under the
old soldiers preference law in 1904.
He wanted to displace John Stewart,
the pooh bah" of the Seventh ward in
politics. The members of the board
refused to name him, although Wise
favored him and Campbell opposed.
Stone then began mandamus proceed
ings in Judge McHenry's court. Judge
McHenry mandamused the board to
certify up the records in the case, but
could not mandamus them into naming
Stone. Then Stone began suit for
$4,000 damages.
In his decision Judge Brennan held
that the old soldiers preference law
is good as far as mandamus goes and
that that is the remedy But inasmuch
as Stone has already gone as far as
possible in mandamus proceedings
there is nothing left to do except 10
appeal to the supreme court This
will be taken at once.

INDICATIONS THAT THAT WILL
BE EXTENT OF THE ACTIONS
OF THE CLERGY
QUIET DAY IN FRANCE
First Day Of Regime Of the Separation
Of the Church and the State Passes
Without Grave Olsorders-cardlnaI
Gibbons Talks.

Paris. Dec. 14.-The first day Of the
regime of the separation of the church
and the state having passed without
grave disorders, public interest In the
details of the continuation of the strug-
gle is already visibly tagging. 1t Is
now apparent that the resistance of
the clergy will be purely passive.
Baltimore, Md, Dec 14.-"The Am
erican public does not understand the
present crisis In France" said Cardinal
Gibbons In an interview on the French
situation.
II am getting to be an old man now
and think know my countrymen.
They love fair play; they love liberty;
they love to see the humane dealings
Of man with man, and Of late years
have shown how cordially they hate
injustice, tyranny and inhumanity.
And yet France has treated her noblest
citizens with injustice and inhumanity.
and America, which has sympathy for
the oppressed of all nations, has
raised no protest nor uttered a word
Of sympathy.
Tells Of the Struggle.
"If believed that my countrymen
would knowingly see great and bene-
ficient organization unjustly deprived
of Its property and means Of continued
usefulness, would knowingly see tens
of thousands and even several millions
of people brutally wounded in what
they hold dearest and most sacred,
would knowingly see the majority in
the chambers utterly disregarded and
trample upon the rights of the minor
ity and the rights of millions OF their
countrymen-in the name of liberty
would knowingly see tens Of thousands
of men and women who happen to be
priests and nuns, turned out of their
homes for no crimes but that of low
ing God and serving their neighbors,
say. If my countrymen can see and
recognize all this injustice and tyran-
ny and cruelty and refuse genuine
sympathy to those who suffer by them
because Of their religious belief, then
| will leave life without that faith in
the American love Of justice and lib
erty which has been my comfort and
support AMI hope during a long career.
Case Not Fairly Put.
1'The American people have not had
these things put fairly before them.
Our own press has been to a consider
able extent a reflex Of the Partisan
anti-clerical press. Most of the people
over here have little conception of the
French anti-clericals. They look on
the leaders of this party as statesmen
seeking to preserve the republic from
the attacks Of an aggressive clergy.
There have been honest and sincere
lovers of the republican government
among the anti-clericals, admit, but
tho ma iority have far less love of tha
republic than they have hatred of re-
ligion am weighing my words, and
/ say with deliberate conviction that
the leaders of the present French gov
ernment are actuated by nothing less
than the hatred of religion. We have
here much Indifference to religion, but
we have no body of men. no great
party that makes it chief aim to
weaken the power of religion and, il
possible, utterly destroy it out of the
1and.''
