KRAUS CASE SETTLED
County Get. $500 of the Cash Deposited
by phenomenal" kraus and "The
Great" .Anselne - c. e. Hatcher
Released as Surety.

The states case against the itinerant
doctors, phenomenal" Kraus and "The
Great" Anselme were settled in district
court this morning. BY the settlement,
G. e. Hatcher, who was on the bonds
of the two men, was released from any
liability, and $500 in cash, which the
two had deposited in the City National
bank, was divided equally between the
county and the doctors attorney.
This amount more than reimburses
the county for it's costs in the cases.
This sum of 5000 was deposited in the
bank soon after the men were indicted,
and D. T. Denmead went surety on
their bond for the amount of the de-
posit. This bond was not accepted,
and was never certified to. but the bond
was not returned and the bank never
released the money. The doctors at
torney garnisheed the deposit. his claim
being 5000. The settlement was COM
promise, the county accepting one-half.
Mr.. Hatcher was released from liabil-
ity because he became unwittingly and
unintentionally surety after he under
stood the cases had been settled. and
because he thought the cases were set
tied he had returned to the doctors the
security they had deposited with him

Miserable For Him, Says Foreman.

B. F. Foreman, at one time a we'll
known and highly respected farmer or
the county and resident OF the city, Is
reaping the whirlwind of the folly of
his old age. A little over two years
ago, after divorcing his lifelong COM
panion. a noble wife, and the mother OF
his grown children, he married a wom-
an of the streets, known here as Annie
Bell, a product of Oskaloosa, and for
many years keeper Of a resort at the
corner OF Second avenue and Nevada
street. Foreman now claims that his
young and beautiful wife has made life
miserable for him, and has gone so far
as to threaten his life. He now seeks
a divorce

by using profane language and by 9TH
err abuses. He charges that on July 90,
1905, she threatened his life, and that on
August /, 1906, threw chair at him.
The chair, according to the allegations,
was smashed to pieces on door thru
which he had barely escaped. While
he escaped, he claims, Mrs. Foreman
took out her vengeance on valuable
dishes, which she smashed to pieces
on the floor. The attempt to kill him,
according to the plaintiff, was by a
knife, with which, Foreman alleges, the
woman tried to stab him.
Since Foreman married the Bell
woman in Chicago. he has made his
home in Waterloo, Oskaloosa and Des

se,ooo-city Relinquishes Certificates.

1t took a midnight session Of the
council Monday night TO allow the at
torneys interested in the settlement Of
the paving cases to arrange the details
and shortly after noon today Mayor In
gledue, the judiciary committee and
Clerk Derby, on behalf of the city, and

sentative OF the Barber people. ex-
changed the certificates of North First

erty owners aggregating in all close to
$4,000. Bonds aggregating $4,000
were also furnished by the paving
company to the city.
Mr.. Killmar and his attorneys were
present at the council meeting Monday
night, and the agent notified the coun-
Gil that he had the money ready for
deposit. He wanted the certificates,
and as had been agreed, the exchange
was to be simultaneous. While the
council took recess the attorneys
went to work. and it was II when the
council reassembled. Chairman Devine,
of the judiciary committee, then intro
duced the necessary resolutions to the
effect that the city clerk be authorized
to deliver to the Barber Asphalt Com

the statement attached, together with
warrants for the intersections, with the
exception that the assessment against
the H. G. Wilson property on North

ly after the noon hour, the Barber COM
pany paid over to the city the sum of

tied with the mayor enough money to
settle with the property owners. This
sum is estimated to require the expen-
diture Of $4,5O0 The work Of distribu-
ton will begin at once

CITY FREE FROM DISEASE.
Contagious Diseases Are Very r,

Contagious Diseases Are Very Few,
and Conditions Are Gratifying.
DIR. M. U. Chesire, city health physi-
clan, before the regular meeting of
the board of health Monday night, re-
ported the city as being remarkably
free at the present time from con-
tagious diseases. There are a very
few cases Of scarlet fever and diph-
iberia, two cases Of typhoid, and that
sums up the infectious diseases now
prevailing. DR.. Chesire reported the
conditions as extremely gratifying for
this season of the year.
Attention to the existence Of small
pox at State Center was called, and
as 1t is prevailing in Oskaloosa and
western Iowa points the health physi-
clan announced that cases might be
expected here at any time. The deten-
ton hospital is in such fine shape now
for caring for infectious diseases that
there will be no trouble in handling the
cases should they result. Several cases
Of nuisances have been investigated by
the physician, and several closets have
been condemned.

very economical. Herman stated that
neither the chairman. Mr.. Young, nor
himself, the second member Of the
committee, was consulted in the APP
preparation, and now, that supple
mental appropriation became neces-
sary, the public might be led to infer
that the council had been extravaganza.
He did not consider this to be the
case, but, rather that the appropriation
had been far too low originally. Mr..
SieG made no reply Of any kind.

KENNEDY TEAM OWNER
There is a Possibility That "snapper"
Kennedy Will Own and Manage Lo-
cal Base Ball Team-ReIden Hill
May Be Associated With Him.

Ar important development by which
Snapper" Kennedy, Ottumwa's pen
nant-winning manager, may become
owner and manager Of the local base
ball team, is expected within the next
twenty-four hours. Mr.. Kennedy, who
is in business in Cedar Rapids, was in
the city Monday night, having come at
the instance of the associations Off
GERS.
While here an offer was made to
Kennedy to take over and manage the
team. Kennedy was offered $4,000 in
cash, the proceeds of fair to be givs
en- later, and the property of the as
sociation, in return for which he was
to own and manage the team, the
franchise, while being ostensibly vested
in Kennedy, is in reality, to remain
the property of Marshalltown. The
proposed transfer remains operative so
long as Kennedy furnishes the city
with base ball. When he relinquishes
the business, the franchise remains
with the city.
There is possibility that Belden
Hill, manager of the Cedar Rapids club
of the "Three-I League" team, may be
associated with Kennedy. The pro-
posed transaction is the most feasible
and practical as yet suggested.
Kennedy and Belden Hill wired
resident Strub at noon today. making
a proposition to the effect that if the
association would pay them $4,000 on
March !, and $1,000 on July /, the asso-
citation to keep the receipts of the fair,
they would take over the team. Ken
needy and Hill agree to reimburse the
association for Pitcher Dick.
The proposition will come up for
meeting tonight.
