An UNUSUAL DEFENSE
Attorneys For Irene Dolph,
Charged With Murder, To
Admit the Crime
ExTENuATINe CIRCUMSTANCES
Defense Will Seek to Excuse Crime
Because Girl Is a Degenerate Whose
Life Was Ruined by Husband and
others-Attorney Makes Remarkable
Statement.
Special to Times-Kepubllcan.

Clinton, April 3O.-"We will show
you a condition of affairs in Clinton
and Clinton county before we finish
( this murder trial which will make the
hairs of these jurors rise upon their
heads like the quilts on the back of a
frightened porcupine," was the state
| ment made by M. v. Cannon, of Dav-
! EXPORT, in his opening address to the
jury in the trial of Mrs. Irene Dolph
for the murder of her husband, Fred
Dolph The jury was empaneled
Wednesday and early in the afternoon
the attorneys.
County Attorney Keefe stated to the
jury that the state was ready to prove
Irene Dolph guilty of her husbands
premeditated murder, and that he eX-
pected them to bring in verdict Of
guilty of the crime in that degree.
Whether the penalty would be death
or life imprisonment, he left to the
jurors to decide
The statement of Attorney Cannon
was of the sensational order. No at
tempt was made by the Davenport
attorney to disguise the fact that Mrs.
Dolph killed her husband; but, outlin-
ing the contributary causes which he
said the defense expected to prove,
he concluded his address with the
words: when we have shown the
jury these things: that the girl is the
daughter of a prostitute; that her I'M
natural mother gave her over to ev-
cry blackguard who CHANGED to de-
sire her in her youth; that the man
who was afterwards her husband ru-
ined her when she was a girl of IA,
and threatened to desert her II she
did not give birth to children, working
her up to terrible state of mind by
his abuse; that she was made vic
tim by her own stepfather when she
was young child; that she contracted
a loathsome disease from her husband
and is still suffering from it's effects;
when we have proven all this we shall
say to the jurors: 'Acquit this girl,
and say to her as Christ said to Mary
eco and sin no more."'"
An incident of most remarkable
nature developed in the trial when
County Attorney W. j. keefe served
notice on F. L. Holleran. one of the
attorneys for the defense, to the effect
that he will be called as witness for
the state during the progress of the
trial. The county attorney declares
he will prove in this manner that At
torney Holleran was engaged to de-
fend Mrs Dolph before her husbands
dead body was discovered.

STRIKERS ARE ENJoINED.
Fort Dodge Laborers Must Not Inter,
fere With Plants.


Fort Dodge, April 3O.-A hundred
injunctions have been issued in the
courts against individual strikers to
prevent their interfering in any way
with the operation of the stucco mills
and men here. The companies have
imported strike breakers, but the strik-
ers were following them to their living
quarters in the city and persuading
most of them to quit. To prevent this
the companies are putting up Sleep
ing and eating quarters at the mills
and giving up the practice of keeping
the men in town and carrying them to
work on a special train.
Three Of the seven stucco mills here
were in operation today. Workmen are
being imported every day and it is
expected that by the end of the week
all the mills will again be running.

AFTER HARD CONTEST

SALT LAKE CITY. Utah. Oct. 2s.--
Arthur W. Copp. up on F. e. McGur-
rim. at the end of So holes. marked
the end of the most strenuous contest
ever held FOR the golf championship of
Utah. Copp, who is former title holder
in this state. was obliged to go out
under bogey and maintain his game
throughout to regain the title which he
once held.
Brilliant driving, accurate approaches
and marvellous putting marked the con-
test throughout and the enthusiastic
gallery" which followed the players
was kept on tiptoe of excitement by
the marvellous skill exhibited by the
contestants.
The Salt Lake Country club course
has been traversed by players of ma
tional reputation, but rarely have they
approached the record made by the

Walter Nagle experienced what might
have been a serious accident while
warming up Saturday afternoon pre-
vious to the game between the Angels
and Seals. He drew back to unwind
with a curve and as he did so one Of
his ribs snapped. He went at once to
consult surgeon, who told him after
an examination that the rib. was dislo-
Gated. With this Information, the sur
geon took a jiu-jitsu hold on Walter.
and before the crack twirler could dis
engage himself the surgeon had pulled
the rib back into position. 1t was very
painful to Nagle for moment, but he
frightened up when informed that he
would be ready to take his turn on the
slab IN the Anal series.
The final series of Coast league base
ball in Los Angeles will be started this
afternoon at the Chutes, with the
Angels and the Beavers In the points.
At the same time. the Seals and the
Commuters will start their final series
at Oakland. Since the Angels have
cinched the pennant beyond any possi-
bility of doubt and Portland cannot
lose second place to save their lives,
there Is little now to interest the fans
beyond the mere enthusiasm of the re-
naming games, none of which can
affect the standings of the clubs in the
order OF finish.
