JUDGE D. M. ANDERSON SEN
TENCEs ADULTERER TO THREE
YEARS AT ANAMosA REFoRMA-
TORY; NO NEW TRIAL.

A motion for new trial by his at
torney A. w. Enoch. in the case Of w.
l. Young found guilty last week of the
charge of adultery, was overruled. The
motion for a new trial and for Glenn
ency of the court in the passing of SEN
tence was made by Attorney Enoch,
followed by an address to the court by
County Attorney Cornell. Mr.. Enoch
claimed that the verdict was not sup
ported by the evidence and that the
filing of the case was not through the
proper channels. Mr.. Cornell denied the
accuracy of this and stated that the
former wife Of the prisoner had asked
him as prosecutor to bring the case
before the grand jury. After lengthy
review of the case in which he stated
that he had endeavored to find some
mitigating circumstances that might
lessen the punishment Of Young, the
court asked the prisoner to state any
reasons he might have for sentence not
being imposed upon him. Upon the re-
ply of the prisoner that he had moth
ing to say, the court pronounced the
maximum sentence of three years in
the reformatory at Anamosa upon
Young. He told the prisoner that the
board of parole would probably take up
the case in eleven months and If he
deported himself in the proper manner
his sentence might be lessened. The
appeal bond was fixed at $500.

FROM STRIKERS WHILE IN
THAT CITY.

Omaha, Sept 20.-The program. /.
arranged for President Taft's en-
tertainment in Omaha today fills
seven hous of his stay, leaving lit
tie time for rest. The presidential
party was met at the Union depot
by delegation Of the knights of
Ak Sar Ben. The tour of the city
was followed by a review of thou
sands of pupils of the public
schools. The greater part of
Omaha's population gathered
along the route through the city.
At $50 the president will be a
guest at the knights of Ak Sar
Ben at dinner.
Omaha, Sept. 20.-The arrival of a
large number Of men from Chicago to
take the places of the striking street
car men and the promised arrival of
400 more tomorrow has caused un-
easiness among the ranks of the
strikers, but their leaders declare that
everything will be done to prevent
violence and that the strike will be
conducted entirely by peaceful meth
DDS. All precautions, however, are
being taken to avert a clash, and a re-
serve detail of police Is being held at
the central station for emergencies.
The first show of violence in the
street car strike came at. Council
Bluffs yesterday afternoon when car
on the Interurban line was derailed
and the windows smashed. Conductor
Doolittle showed a disposition to re-
sist and was hit in the face with a
brickbat, sustaining painful but not
serious injuries. Five strikers were
arrested during the afternoon, charg-
ed with riotous conduct. Fifty-four
men were brought to the city from
Chicago and 1t is understood that 400
more are expected to arrive later In
the day.

PROMINENT IOWA POLITICIANS,
WHO UPHELD VIEWS OF THE
PRESIDENT FIGURE IN DEs
MONIES WELCOME.

Des Moines, Sept. 20.-Not since the
time that Senator Allison defeated AL
bert B. Cummins in the 1908 primaries
has the standpat element of the Re-
publican party in Iowa been so jul
bilant as it is today. President Taft's
speech at Winona in which he praised
the Republicans who voted for the
Payne tariff bill and questioned the
Republicanism of those who voted
against 1t, had marvellous effect on
the dropping spirits of the standpat
forces.
Prominent among them was Col w.
r. Hepburn, who Is here accompanied
by Mrs. Hepburn. He made no at
tempt to conceal his happiness at the
way in which the president handled
the insurgents at Winona. Colonel
Hepburn was the center OF a group of
leading standpatters, who agreed that
the chief executive of the nation is a
man of rare judgment and that the in
surgents got just what they deserved.
Others present at this little confer
ence We're Congressman Chas. A. Ken
nedy of the First district. United
States Marshal Frank B. Clark, Frank
Simmons of Ottumwa, who was a dele
gate at large to the last national con-
vention and helped nominate Taft, Col.
ID. j. Palmer, state railroad commits
sioner; Charles Wilson of Washington
and Joseph H. Byrnes, deputy auditor
of state and Judge Smith Mcpherson.
Insurgents Not DoWncast.
Over at the Sayery, where most of
the insurgent contingent gathered. no
deep gloom was apparent, as might
have been expected from the talk in
the other camp. Senator Dolliver has
reached town from his home in Fort
Dodge II Is his first visit to Des
Moines since returning from Washing
ton. He wore no outward appearances
of worrying over the problem as to
whether he is Republican or Demo
crat. What his private opinion on the
question is he refused to say, declining
to talk on politics for publication.
Congressman Kendall of the Sixth
district and Woods of the Tenth both
arrived last night. Mr.. Kendall came
in disguise, having changed his
brown derby hat for a wide brimmed
black one. He still wore his red neck
tie, however, and denied that the
