Waterloo Girl Will Recover Judgment
in Breach Of Promise Suit.

Waterloo Girl Will Recover Judgment
in Breach of Promise Suit.
Special to Times Republican.
Waterloo, March 11.-When the case
Of Miss Nettie Smith, for breach OF
promise against Albert H. Schrag. was
called, the attorneys for the defense
withdrew their appearance, allowing 1t
to go by default for want of answer.
This gives the case a decided turn, and
simply means that formality of law
will have TO be complied with to prove
the engagement. When this is done,
Judge Ransier will make an order for
the amount OF Judgment to be rendered
against Mr.. Schrag.
The action of Mr.. Schrag and his at
torneys in Withdrawing all defense in
the case and allowing it to. so without
contest is a matter of great surprise.
Those about the court room claim the
attorneys for Miss Smith had to pinch
themselves several times, to ascertain
whether it was a reality or dream
that had taken place. They had ex-
pected very sharp contest, altho they
felt secure In their ability to secure
Judgment for their petitioner. The at
torneys for the defense have little to
say regarding the sudden turn, and 1t
Is anticipated that the young man
realized that contesting the case with
anything like success was hopeless,
therefore he would rather confess
judgment and save all the costs.

Special to Times-Republican.

Special to Times Republican.
Oelwein. March 1.-THE car workers
strike in the Great Western shops was
settled Saturday night. Grand Presi-
dent Richardson of the l. A. c., with a
committee and General Master Me-
chanic Chisholm, signed up the new
schedule. The car workers get an adj
vance of two cents per hour on an av-
erage. ..All returned to work this morn
ing, including $50 car workers, ma
chinists and others that were laid off.
Saturday morning at 1880 another
department of the Great Western
shops, the millmen walked out, still
farther cutting down the force en-
ployed.
The strike was inaugurated F'ebru
airy 5, when the carworkers went out
in consequence of not receiving an adj
vance in wages, and other requests not
being acceded to. 1t IS now nearly
Ave weeks since the strike began, and
there have been numerous conferences
between the carworkrs committee
and the railway officials. all Of which
have failed to adjust the difficulty.
Saturday morning the blacksmiths
notified the Great Western that they
would not do any work in connection
with freight cars. 1t Is presumed that
the reason is thai: it was thought that
material completed by them might be
shipped elsewhere and fitted to freight
cars. The steam filters are also said to
decline to do freight car work.

Littleton, March 11.-Word comes
from Anamosa that Will McWiliiams
has not long to live. The doctor states
that the murderer has dropsy, altho he
is very thin. Some days he can sit up
only a short time F. c. Rubert, a re-
cent visitor at the prison, says that
while there was no demonstration that
Indicated that the prisoner IS a raving
maniac, there was nothing to indicate
the degree of intelligence that he had
in the past. His answers to questions
asked were rather on the hit and miss
order, some passing for rational replies
and others for reverse.
In reply to Sheriff Corlis' question,
"Did you know your stepmother was
buried last week?', he seemed ITO study
over it, and finally asked, How would
you expect me to hear anything
shere?" Other answers indicated he
was unable to gather his thoughts to-.
gether so as to give coherent reply.

r. Snyder, who was cashier and owner
of the DIN bank at the time of its
failure, in December, 1904, special
Jones county grand jury has returned
four indictments against him. The
first two indictments were set aside by
the court on account of misdescrip-
tons The defendant was again in
dicted on four counts. and in consider
alton of plea Of guilty being entered
in one case. the state consented to dis
miss the other three cases.
The court afterwards imposed an
insignificant fine of $40, which created
quite sensation, it appearing to many
to be an inadequate sentence, and la
ter grand jury returned four more in
dictnents. These were attacked by
the defendants counsel on the ground
that the grand jurors were not properly
selected by the board Of supervisors,
which objections We're sustained by the
court, and the indictments held to be
invalid. The cause was continued un-
til this term of court with the outcome
above stated.
