Sioux City, April lS.-Persccuted by
the Anti Saloon league to a point OF
despair, the saloonkeepers of Sioux
City have united in an effort to have
police power substituted for that OF
the league in the enforcement of the
provisions of the Martin law.
OF their own accord. the liquor men
presented to Mayor Sears the following
petition, signed by forty retail deal
ers.
I'VE do respectfully petition you to
protect the interests and show your
appreciation OF the position of the sa-
looms trying to comply with the mulct
law by insisting and compelling all
others to do likewise, and otherwise
putting stop to all illegal selling of
Intoxicating liquors"
Fifteen years ago, a Sioux City sa-
loon man who circulated such a petit
ton would have been regarded as a
candidate for lunatic asylum, yet
this petition, circulated quietly. Was
readily signed.
Tho saloon men say they want to
eliminate the possibility of graft and
desire to place the responsibility for
the enforcement of the law upon the
individual patrolman. Any patrolman
who refuses to see or hear then can be
reported to the police commission.
Mayor Sears said he had as yet not
had time to consider the proposition
and make a reply to the petitioners.

born to them, both of whom died under
suspicious circumstances. The couple
were arrested at Brooks. and We're talk
en- from train while they were headed
towards Council Bluffs. The couple
stated at the time of their arrest that
they were en- route to Council Bluffs,
where they expected to secure evidence
that would clear them of the suspic-
ious under which they were resting.
Of their little personal property, tho
officers, who had been hesitating for
some time, decided to prevent their
leaving the country, IL that was their
intention. What effects they did not
dispose of We're found in their trunks.
Coroner Christie was informed of
their departure, and it was upon his
motion that the warrant for the arrest
of the couple was made. A coroner's
jury has been at work on the case or

of the stomach Of one of the children,

Christie received authority from the

both children, and secure their stom-
achs for chemical examination. This
was done and the coroner went to
Des Moines with the organs, where
the state chemist was to make the
examination, the result of which Is
not yet made known.
The matter has been under invests
cation for some time. Acting upon
story which the couple told, the sher-
iff and coroner made trip to Council

a mythical person. Mr.. and Mrs. Bus
kirk had told the officers that DR..

is the application of Carl Martin Pet
er Madsen Of Shelby, to be admitted
as citizen. From his petition it ap-
peared that he was born in Denmark
on September &C. 1882, and had landed
in New York city on the st. Louis,
July 9, 1902, and that he had filed his
declaration to become citizen of the
United States in the district court
of this county on April 81, 1903. This
declaration was filed in April while he
was yet minor not being of age un-
til September. following.
Milton NJ. bearing, assistant United
States attorney had inspected the rec
ords and his petition and discovered
this fact, and filed motion to dismiss
the petition for the reason that under
the law a minor cannot legally file a
declaration to become a citizen; in 9TH
er words, that a minor under the old
law could not take out his first papers,
He had filed with the clerk to be sub
mitted to the court brief and argu-
ment in substantiation of his position.
The matter was submitted and the
court has it under advisement.
The decision is awaited with much
interest. If the motion shall be sus-
tanned and the court hold declara-
ton of a minor to become a citizen is
illegal, great many persons hereto
fore naturalized, as they supposed,
will be affected.
