Nice Point in
Divorce Law
Des MoineS Man Fights Extradition
on the Charge Of Wife
Desertion.
lFrom a staff Correspondent

DIES MONIES, Ia, Sept. 27.-(special)-
Isaac Fieldman, a shoe dealer OF this city,
will resist the application for a reduisition
to return him to Boston, Mass, to stand
trial for wife desertion. He has employed
Clinton X. Dorm, an attorney here, to de-
fend him.
Fieldman's case is an odd one. He immi-
grated to this country many years ago
and sent regular remittanoes to his wife
till he had saved enough money to bring
her to America. Then he sent her money
and when she landed on the pier she had
a baby with her Of which FieldmRn was
evidently not the father. He took his wife
and her child at once to the Jewish rabbi
and was promptly given a Jewish divorce.
He neglected or did not know that he had
to get a civil divorce also.
Then he came to Iowa and married again
and for many years has been a prosperous
merchant here. Now he Is charged with
wife desertion and there will be many
tangles and complications when the case
Is presented to Governor Carroll tomor-
row. Fieldman claims that it is spite work
on the part OF some OF his enemies. His
attorney will resist the application for
requisition on the ground that Fieldman
lie not a fugitive from Justice in Boston for
the reason that he has never lived In
Boston and has not been there for many
long years.
Newspaper announcement was made to-
day In the Creston Advertiser Of the condl-
dacy Of Adam Pickett of that city for
state superintendent OF public instruction.
Pickett is the second to be formally an
nounoed, the other being A. l.. Heminger Of
Keosauqua. Politicians are discussing the
probability that the position may go to
some strong northern man II one comes
out because most of the candidates com
ing from the southern part Of the state
would naturally divide the vote in that
section, leaving a northern man a field
to himself.
Hiram c. Wheeler, who was a candidate
for governor Of Iowa at the time Horace
c.. Boies was elected, died at the home OF
his daughter, Mrs. Byron l.. Mills, nW
Ainslie street, Chicago, Sunday.
Efforts are being made to find J. ID.
McNeely. a wealthy farmer Of Hampton,
Ia, who left home ostensibly to attend
the Iowa state fair, but has not been seen
since. He had $1,000 in cash when he
left home. He has a farm Of 800 acres
clear Of debt which is we'll stocked.
The Fort Dodge Chronicle is responsible
for a story that John T. Hamilton, who
resigned a few days ago from the State
Board OF Control may be the democratic
nominee for governor next year unless
Hon. John Cownie of the board is a
candidate against Governor Carroll and Is
nominated. The Messenger suggests that
unless John Cownie defeats Carroll the
state Board Of Control will be made an
issue in politics in the state by Hamilton
being named by the democrats. The Mes
senger's article raises the question with
politicians as to whether or not Hamil-
toms resignation was not with an eye
to the future of politics in Iowa as well
as because Of the demands of his business
affairs upon his time.

Sidewalk Ordinance Attacked.

The validity of the city's new ordinance
regulating the construction Of sidewalks
was attacked yesterday in the district court
by counse for the defendant in the in
junction suit Of the Twin City Dye works
against the Miracle Concrete corporation
Of Minneapolis, an action arising out of
the controversy between the Minneapolis
concern and ]. p. Wickham Of this city
over the cotract for a strip Of sidewalk
on North Twenty-sixth street between
Broadway and Avenue 4 in front of the
property owned By the dye works COM
pany.
The contract for this piece of walk was
awarded the Miracle company, but through
some error as yet unexplained was included
In the contract with wickham.
The ordinance is alleged to be invalid
because Of the provision requiring the con-
tractors to deposit with the city 5 per cent
Of the contract price as a penalty or for
felt for bidding and requiring them to
give bono for the completion of the work
within a specified time. II is claimed that
the ordinance Is in conflict with the state
law which provides the manner In which
bids shall be made for the construction OF
sidewalks.
It is also commended that the ordinance
does not make any provision for repay
ment to contractors of the amount Of their
forfeits II they are unable to complete the
work on account OF unavoidable delays.

The hearing In the suit brought by the
c. y. Nash company OF Omaha against the
city Of Council Bluffs attacking the valid
lty OF the proposed issue OF S6OO,OO bonds
for the purchase or construction OF a mu-
nicipal water works system was begun
yesterday afternoon before Judge smith
McPherson in the United states court The
testimony in the case was taken during the
summer before J. ]. Ferguson, a court re-
porter. under appointment as commissioner
from Judge Mcpherson.
The Nash company during the hearing
Yesterday afternoon decided TO admit the
sufficiency Of the petition asking the city
council to submit the proposition Of the
bond issue TO the voters of the city. Evil
dence in an effort to show that this petit
ton lacked the required number Of bona
fide electors was taken during the summer.
with the elimination Of the question of
the sufficlency OF the petition the matters
now TO be determined by the court are the
alleged illegality Of the action Of the city
council in calling the special election at
which the proposition was submitted TO the
voters and the question whether the indebt-
edness of the municipality is not already
In excess OF the statutory amount. The
hearing will be resumed this morning.

records Of it's meetings at which action on
the proposition to submit the proposed
10000 o bond issue was taken, Judge
Wheeler yesterday handed down his decis-
ion denying the company a rehearing.
The Nash company contended that nc
meeting of the city council had been held
on Labor day Of last year and that conse-
quently no adjournment could be legally
taken to the next evening. Despite the fact
that no quorum was present on the even
ing ct Labor day, the regular meeting night
Of the city council, City Clerk Cassidy,

made records Of n meeting and the ad-
journment 60 the following evening.

not require a quorum to adjourn a meet.

records of the proceedings Of the city
council as amended and corrected subse-
quently were legal. In his decision handed
down Yesterday Judge Wheeler reaffirms
his former ruling with the exception of tn,
part holding hat a quorum was not neces'
sary for adjournment. Judge Wheeler II
his decision yesterday declared that thii
point was not directly involved in the issu,
presented in the pleading.
