circles with a. distinct futter of excite

The flutter is partly because Of the

Sensational Case at Iowa City VIII

He Will Hang Himself. =. =. ri

Special to The Journal. -" '
Iowa City, Iowa, July 14.-Startling
developments this afternoon character
lied the inquest upon Mrs. Joseph Ca
bal, who was found floating in the
Iowa river on Wednesday,. It was
proved indisputably that her husband
told neighbors on Monday preceding
the finding of the body that his wife
was drowned in the river. She jumped
in, he alleged.
His story was discredited at that
time, hence no investigation was made
then. He made no report to the police
until the day the body was found.
He testified that she had threatened
to drown herself after he choked her
and otherwise abused her at midnight
preceding her disappearance. No di-
rect proof Of guilty connection be-
tween the husband and his wife's dis
appearance has yet been traced. A
surgeon will report on Monday as to
the probability of the woman being
dead before reaching the river. Cabal,
on the witness stand today, called for
a. rope, and declared he would hang
himself. - -

How Tariff Works.

But when it comes to thru business,
Chicago is Handicapped. For instance,
two carloads of wheat leave Aberdeen,
S.? D., for New York city by way of
Chicago. One goes to Minneapolis and
IS rebilled there to Chicago, where it
is again rebilled and sent on to it's
destination. The other goes direct from
Aberdeen to Chicago and is rebilled to
New York. The distance travelled by
each car is practically the same and
yet the one that goes thru Minneapolis
reaches New York for 361a cents a
reaches for New York 361a cents a
hundred pounds and the other costs SO
cents. This differential gives the Min
neapolis grain merchant a decided adj
vantage in the common territory which
includes southern Minnesota, northern
Iowa and all of South Dakota.
The Chicago grain men want the
eastern roads to accept grain delivered
at Chicago for exactly the same rate
that they receive for grain that comes
first thru Minneapolis. Under the pres
ent arrangement. however, if the grain
is rebilled at Minneapolis, it goes from
Chicago to New York for Is cents. but
If it goes to Chicago direct, the rate
is 171h cents. - .-...... -
