Was After Fisher.

Holding court on the train after off,
GERS mad stood off mob bent on
lynching Claude Fisher for assaulting
Miss Minnie Baker, seventeen years
old and one of the popular young wo-
men of Mapleton, Ia, resulted in the
culprit getting to Jail at Onawa safely
and regularly. Fisher attacked the
girl in the dark and dragged her to a
thicket and bound his coat about her
head She is near death from her in
juries and shock, added to exposure.
As he sat in his seat on the train,
carefully guarded, just outside of
Mapleton, the charge accusing him of
criminally assaulting the pretty school
teacher was read to Fisher. The
prisoner was being taken from Ida
Grove. where he had been hurried by
the authorities to avoid a possible
lynching, to Onawa, the county seat of
Monona county, in which Mapleton,
the scene of the crime, is located. Fish
ser waived preliminary examination
and was held by Justice ]. e. Scott to
the action Of the grand jury under
$4,000 bonds. The citizens of Maple
ton are greatly incensed and it was
feared Fisher would suffer violence
should he be kept in the insecure jail
at Mapleton.

Running Battle Between Victims and
Spy May Lead to Double Tragedy.

Fremont, O., Oct. 27.-As result
of q running fight with mysterious
man, Louis Johnson, of this city, is
suffering from a bullet wound in the
right leg, and Frank Keller may die
from the effects Of q wound In the
groin.
The mysterious man has been re-
peatedly seen lettering around the
house Of Johnson and his son-in-law,
John Weber. who lives next door.
Keller, who lives at Weber house,
saw the man peering through John
sons window. He went to the John
son home and informed the latter.
The two Immediately started after
the man, who pulled a revolver and
fired at his pursuers. One Of the bull.
let's struck Keller in the left side,
just below the kidney, and the other
passed through Johnson's leg. Both
men continued the chase until they

MUST COLLECT CASH FOR FARES.
Railroads Cannot Exchange Tickets
for Advertising Space.

Washington. Oct. 27-Under a
ruling of the interstate commerce
commission, transportation over rail
road lines no longer may be given
to newspapers or editors in exchange
for advertising space in their news
papers.
Chairman Knapp, of the commits
sion, says that all tariffs filed in COM
pliance with the regulating statute
name rates in dollars and cents, and
do not in any case provide that trans
portation can be paid for with prop
erty. It seems plain to the commits
Assfoe -tlleksslsses INV PERMITS payment for
services of interstate carriers only in
money.
A contrary rule would sanction I'M
equal compensation by different per-
sons and involve ordinarily some de-
gree of discrimination in favor of
those permitted to exchange their
commodities for the transportation
they desire or secure. It is the aim
of the law to prevent every sort OF
favoritism and secure absolute equal
ity Of treatment in all cases.

Mystery In Shooting.

Two shooting affairs within three
nights have terrorized the whole farm
community northwest Of Webster City.
The first was an attempt upon the life
OF Chief Of Police Ash and the second
was an even more mysterious attempt
upon Charles Burget. Going into his
stables late at night, Burget ran into
a man who felled him with his fist
and as he rose shot at him. Burget
returned the fire, but both missed and
the would-be assassin escaped. It is
supposed the same man is responsible
for both attempts, and terror reigns.

EIGHT KNOWN TO Be DEAD.
FOUR MORE BODIES TAKEN FROM
KANSAS CITY RUINS.
Heavy Loss Of Life ls Attributed to
Lack Of Fire Fighting APP
paratus.

Kansas City. Mo-, Oct. PA sys-
tematic search was begun Friday in
the ruins of the Chamber of Com
MERGE building in Kansas City, Kan,
destroyed by fire Thursday. -Four
bodies were removed during the morn
ing, making the total known dead to
date eight.
The bodies, although badly charred
and features disfgured, were identi-
fed as:
Edward Winslow, aged AZ years,
city solicitor for the Nelson-M Morris
Packing company; Mrs. Edward
Winslow, his wife; Mabel Winslow,
aged nine, and May Winslow, aged
five, the daughters of Mr.. and Mrs.
Edward Winslow
The body supposed to be that Of
D. R. Young. has been positively iden-
tilted as the remains Of Patrick Nc
CURE, aged IS, a retired locomotive
:. engineer. Young is counted among
the missing.
First the walls were. pulled down,
and then large force of men was
put to work to remove the debris.
At the hospitals two Of the injured
were in serious condition, but 1t is
believed all the others will recover.
The loss of life is attributed in part
to the lack Of fire fighting apparatus,
and movement has been begun
through the city council to remedy
the defect as soon as possible.
Three ten-per-cent.-a-m money
lenders, who had Offices in the de-
stroyed building, lost much Of their
paper, including hundreds of dollars
worth Of notes. One money lender

DO Not Want Machines.

The supreme court of Iowa has
handed down q decision annIlling a
temporary injunction granted by Judge
A. N. Hobson OF the Thirteenth judi
cial district against the board of SUI
pervisors of Winnesheik county, the
United States Standard Voting Ma
chine company and others, restricting
them from carrying out a contract en-
tered into In June for the sale and
purchase Of twenty-seven voting ma
chimes The injunction was sought on
the part Of the people and it was
claimed that fraud was used in secur-
ing the contract and that the machine
did not comply with the Iowa ballot
law as amended by the last legisla-
ture The voting machine company
secured a writ Of certiorari in the SUI
preme court, claiming that Judge Hob
son acted without jurisdiction. The
supreme court sustained the conten-
ton Of the voting machine company
and annulled the Injunction. There
are six tickets on the Iowa ballot this
year, and nine independent nomina-
lions each for the office of coroner
and county superintendent have been
fled with the county auditor. This
will require the equivalent of fifteen
! full tickets on the ballot or eight more
] spaces than the machines provide for
so that it seems doubtful whether the
machine can be used anyway. Great
hostility to the machines exists among
the people, and If they are used at the
coming election It may mean ma
terial falling on of the vote in Winnie
i shiek county, as many declare they
will not go TO the polls if compelled to
use them.

Wrong Drug Kills Girl.

Carbolic acid, taken in mistake for
cough medicine, is responsible for the
death of Hazel King, the seventeen
year-old daughter of Charles L. King
of independence. Miss King had been
suffering from a cold and went to the
medicine cabinet to obtain cough
mixture. "A bottle Of carbolic acid
standing there had been kept SO long
that its contents had turned red and
resembled in color the medicine for
which she was looking. No one saw
the girl take the deadly drug, and
after she had taken it she continued
with her household duties and some
time afterward was discovered in an
outbuilding in an unconscious condi-
ton. A physician hastily was sum-
moned and antidotes applied, but with.

sensational Incidents Mark the OFFER.
ing of Testimony in Hearing Be-
fore the Interstate commeros
Commission.

Sensational incidents marked the Of
fering of testimony before the inter
state commerce commission in session
at Des Moines relative to the fixing Of
prices for grain by the Des Moines
Cereal club for the members Of the
State Grain Dealers association and
the pooling of elevator business at
many Iowa points.
c. G. Messerole directly charged that
the Iowa Grain Dealers association
formed a pool to control business in
Iowa and boycotted him when he re-
fused to join. He is secretary of the
Cooperative Farmers association.
Several members Of the Cereal club
testified that they could not remem-
Der Of the organization ever having
voted to, fix prices for grain.
Then r. w. Harper took the stand.
He testified that he had often been a
guest at the banquets and meetings of
the club. Discussion of prices, he said.
was, upon these occasions, followed by
the vote Of the meeting on prices that
should be adhered to for the ensuing
week. Secretary George A. Wells, OF
the Grain Dealers association, who
was the presiding officer, made the
motion to take the vote, according to
Mr.. Harper's testimony, and the basis
of prices determined upon was a list
|-of quotations furnished the members
of the association by Ward G. Case of
Des Moines. The vote was expressed
| by lifted hands.
Commissioner Lane gave the mem
bers of the Cereal club, who had ties
titled that prices were not fixed al
meetings of the organization, an op
portunity to amend their testimony
after Mr. Harper had concluded.
| Secretary Wells took the stand or
this invitation and said he had not put
motions of this character at every
meeting Of the club.

in-law, William Luett. All were in
