KELLEY CASE BADLY MIXED.

Under Three Year Commitment to
Knoxville Before the Murder.
Special to Times Republican
Des Moines. Dec. 19.-Judge Brad
shaw in district court will tomorrow
take up the motion made by attorneys
for DR.. Harry D. Kelley for passing
Judgment on the verdict of insanity
found in that case and hear arguments
thereon. He may not decide it at once.
The. contention of the attorneys is that
inasmuch as the jury found that the
defendant was insane at the time of
the homicide. and that was the sole
question involved in, the three weeks
trial; he is entitled to have that decis-
ion stand. The state contends that
the jury which found Kelley to have
been insane and therefore incapable of
committing crime, also found he did
commit a crime which can only attach
to a sane man; but that he should be
sentenced for manslaughter and the
insanity verdict be ignored.
No matter which view is taken there
is still another indictment pending;
also commitment for three years to
the state institution at Knoxville.
