Motion for Dismissal of William

ColIet.
DELAY IN TRIAL OF CASE
Peasants and Weld Enter Appearance
in Case of Woman-Held More
Than Four Months.

William Nagel and Josephine Col
| let, both under indictment for the muir
der of Carl Brady on Island B, in the
vicinity of Muscatine, seem now to
| have their first chance of going free,
| and this by reason of the delay in the
| trial of the cases.
Whether the coup of the attorneys
| for the defendants will be successful
| or not remains to be seen, but action
| has been taken to secure the dismissal
of the defendants.
Four Months Elapsed.
Adair Peasants and H. a. Weld, who
were appointed by the court TO defend
Nagel this morning entered their APP
pearance also in the case of Josephine
Collet, whose case is also being fought
by Mr. Hanley of Washington, Iowa,
and George c. Wenger of this city. In
each case a motion with supporting
affidavits was filed. setting up the pro-
vision in the statute that defendant
confined in Jail must be tried within
four months from the time of commit
ment unless he or his attorney asks for
a continuance.
Committed Aug. 3.
These defendants were committed
Aug. and the four months were up
in December The cases were neces-
sarily delayed a couple of times, but
they might have been tried or begun
before the close of the December term.
However, the court and states attor
ney were DESTROYS of their going over
20 the January term and it was so or
dered, but there is nothing on the rec
ord to show that the defendants attoT
neys agreed TO it and they say that
they did not.
Arguments Later.
As Mr.. Weld is engaged in the trial
of the Mckinney case in Aledo at pres
ent, the motions will not be argued I'M
til he returns and at that time both
sides of this question will be brought
out and the court will be called upon
to decide whether or not the alleged
will be dismissed without
trial or whether they will be held to
further answer for the killing of Carl
Brady.

An Acting Chancellor May be Named
to Act,

BERLIN. April 12-The physicians Of
Chancellor Won Buelow continue to affirm
that he must not be troubled with official
business just now nor during the long holi-
day which he has been ordered to take
1t is more than probable. therefore, that
under the provisions of the imperial law
of March II. 1878, an acting chancellor will
be designated by the emperor to assume
the parliamentary responsibilities of the
chancellor and Sign the state documents
during Won Buelows vacation.
Count Won Posadowsky- Wehner the vice
chancellor and imperial secretary of state
for the interior, who is next in rank to
Prince Won Buelow and who has often rep
resented him on occasions of minor i'm
portancea is regarded as the most likely
candidate for the position. But as the
chancellor is specially charged to handle
foreign affairs and Won Posadowsky has
mad very little experience In exterior poll
tics it is very likely that Herr Won Rado-
witZ. a senior ambassador. will be the pro-
visional representative of the chancellor
An immediate appointment, however, is
not likely.

DOWIE FELL TO FLOOR
COLLAPSE OF THE PROPHET LAST
EVENING.

CHICAGO, April 12.-The Record-Herald
today says:
John Alexander Dowie's controversy with
Voliva and the other revolutionists at Zion
City shrank into lnsignifcance just before
midnight last night, at which hour the self
STYLED apostle faced the great Maker of all.
On his knees in the center of his chamber
In the Auditorium Annex, whence he had
stumbled from his bed in the midst OF
racking Illness Dowie invoked heavenly aid
in what may be his final struggle with dis
ease 1t was at the close of a strenuous
day that the Zionist was attacked. HIS
collapse seemed so extreme that his per-
sonal attendants, all of whom have been
taught TO shun medicine, urged that they
be allowed to send for physician.
Refused Medical Attention.
II want no doctor" said Dowie feebly.
IT will have no physician. l shall ask
divine assistance-that iss the only real
help
Then with a convulsive movement Dowie
struggled from his bed and stumbled to-
ward the center of the room. He had gone
but a few fet when he sank to his knees
and muttered prayer. His attendants car
red him back to bed again, and at 8 O'Clock
this morning he was said to be sleeping.
John Alexander Dowie today upset the
plans for a peaceable adjustment OF his
troubles with Zion Church. He directed his
attendants to announce to all inquirers that
the report that he was about to compromise
with Overseer Voliva was untrue. He said
that he would make a contest in the courts
and would get his property back.
Attorney Wetten, his legal adviser, when
told of this declaration, said:
~ can only repeat what | said last night.
There is a good prospect of the adjustment
of the troubles without resorting to the
courts The situation has not changed SO
far as know
Mr.. Wetten said later that the position OF
Dowie had not been changed. I'VE do not
wish to plunge Zion City and Zion Church
into an expensive law suit he said. In
its present condition Zion cannot AFFORD
long and expensive litigation. We are try
ing to guard the interests of the creditors,
so that every one of them will receive 100
cents on the dollar. I may hear from Mr..
Voliva today. but until l do cannot ten
Just what turn matters will take. In the
meanwhile Mr.. Dowie will remain where ne
Is He will-no go to Mexico, and he Will
not for a time at least, visit Zio, CITY NO
middle ground has yet been reached, but L
have strong hopes that it will be found in
short time as both sides are anxious to
avoid law proceedings.

STATEMENT BY VOLIvA.
Overseer Is Guarded in Giving Out
Information

ZION CITY, H., April 12.-"When man
an6 his wife have quarreled and the wife
later comes asking for an interview II
means something" said Overseer Noliva
today.
He had been urged to give the result OF
yesterdays conference with Attorney Wet
ten, representing John Alexander Dowie.
He replied as above, adding that the re-
porters could draw their own conclusions.
"Mr Wetten and agreed before the con-
ference was over that nothing should be
given to the press said Mr.. VoIiva, 'and
although he seems to have talked 1t does
not release me of my pledge"
The impression seems to prevail here that
if Dowie listens to advice being given him
by his own friends now with him in Chi
cage he will give up the fight.
The postmaster here has been ordered 10
forward all of Dowies mail to the Audi
torium Annex. Chicago. 1t has been COM

Conference Assured.

Baron Rosen, the Russian ambassador,

that his government was willing to post
pane the date originally set for the as

best calculated to insure the comfort OF
the delegates to the conference and to suit
the convenience of the Netherlands govern
ment. Upon learning however that the
Netherlands governemnt could provide for
the reception and entertainment of the con-
ference at another date, the Russian gov

be fixed by agreement among the powers
