Special to Times Republican.
Eldora, Sept 1S.-Owing to the eN-
treme dissatisfaction arising here over
the verdict returned by coroner's jury
at Des Moines, friends of the late Irene
Blydenburgh exhumed the girls body
this forenoon and conducted an inquest
to determine the cause of her death.
Such an important action was not
taken however, until after County At
torney Miller, of Polk county, had been
consulted. Mr. Miller directed that the
body be exhumed, and that doctors of
this city conduct a second inquest DR..
n. c. Morse, DR.. William E. Whitney
and Miss Boroff, a graduate nurse of
the Emergency hospital had the in
quest in charge. Ex-County Attorney
z. HI. Lundy was also present.
After making thorough examina-
ton of the organs of the dead girls
body, both doctors agreed that peri
tonitis was the immediate cause of
Miss Blydenburgh's death, but both de-
clear that the attack of peritonitis was
a direct result of criminal operation.
There is widespread interest in the
Blydenburgh case here ,and the dead
girls friends will make every effort to
see that justice is meted out to those
who are any wise responsible for her

State Department Receives But Little
From Scat Of Trouble.
Washington, Sept. 1S.-Important
advices regarding the situation in
Cuba are lacking today at both state
and navy departments Only one ca
blegram relating to Cuban matters
was received at the state department.
That came from Sleeper, American
charge at Havana, and merely reiter-
ated his report yesterday that both
the Cuban government and the insur-
gents had decided to suspend hostile
ties temporarily. at least, until Secre-
tary Taft and his party had had an
opportunity Of consultation with par
ties to the trouble. In the view OF the
state department officials. the situation
in Cuba is likely to be particularly
quiet during the sojourn of Secretary
Taft and Assistant Secretary Bacon on
the island. 1t is quite evident that
both the government and the insur-
gent. will do their utmost to favor.
ably impress the American officials.
Thru both official and unofficial
channels the way has been paved for
a cordial reception in Cuba to secre-
tary Taft and Bacon, and 1t is regard
ed as probable that every facility will
be afforded to get results that Will be
Immediate and benef1cent.
