ANIMAL HEALTH BOARD
state Veterinarian Gibson Wei, Pleased
With Some Phases Of Work in Quar-
antined Counties and DispIeased
With others-strinsent Measures to
Be Continued.

Special to Times-Repuhlican.
Des Moines. Jan. ga meeting of the
state board Of animal health is beint
held here for the consideration of the
general situation as affecting the foo
and mouth epidemic. The board, O.
which DR.. Gibson, state veterinarian
is a member has general charge of the
work so far as the state is concerned
DR.. Paxton. who represents the fedora
government, has worked in conjunction
with the state board and department
DR.. Gibson returned from a short
visit to Cedar, Johnston and some 9TH
er counties, we'll pleased with some
phases Of the work, but not with 9TH
ers. There has been disposition in
places to ignore orders and to evade
the quarantine and this ID declared to
be the reason for fresh outbreaks. But
in Cedar county there is to be vigorous
cooperation on the part of the local
authorities. "A memorial was present
ed to DR.. Gibson by an association in
johnson: county, for immediate removal
Of all restrictions, and also that the
veterinary department circularize the
farmers with instructions how to dag
nose the foot and mouth disease and
also instructions as to its treatment
and that OF contagious .pleuro-pneu-
monia In regard to the latter the doc
tor says it liz something wholly I'M
known here, and there is no treatment
for the foot and mouth disease.
DR.. Gibson has just received the fol-
lowing letter from a very prominent
breeder of Polled Hereford cattle. N. NJ
Leonard. of Waukee, which gives some
indication as to how the stock breed
ers Of the state look upon the effort to
stamp out the epidemic:
"As busy as I am. getting ready fol-
our sale Of Jan. Is, want to stop long
enough to commend you for your fight
for clean state. The fact that this
whole country is not to be seeded down
and seveflastingly encountered by foot
and mouth disease. Is wholly due to the
great hght that has been put up.
1T is certainly to be regretted that
at the moment when the fight is fairly
won, and when the stock interests
should be everlastingly grateful that
a scourge IS averted. that few should
throw their influence against your ef-
fort in Iowa.
II feel as tho few swift and sure
prosecutions that will settle questions
of authority OF your department would
be blessing to the state. We have
suffered Inconvenience and some loss
yet we feel fortunate"
There will be no relaxation Of the
stringent meamrEs and there will he
no permitting Of the shipping of stock
to market from the Immediately infect.
ed areas. so long as there is danger.

Sensational Trial For Killing Of For

Fails to Make Strong case-6rooks
Appears Dazed.

wheeler IL, cdii' ANO'S>~
Brooks, a Sioux City gambler, was
acquitted OF the charge of numbering
William II. Menzie and Miss Blanche
Signal, by jury in the district court
here. The jury acted on the advice OF
Judge Tripp. Brooks, who Is an ad-
mitted drug fiend, heard the verdict
without showing any sign of compre-
hension, he had been grilled on the
stand for several hours just previously
and appeared dazed. His wife sitting
beside him smiled contentedly and pat
ted his hand. Later the judge an
nounced they would release Brooks, on
his own recognizance, pending the dis
position of another indictment against
him. charging substantially the same
crime.
Geddes persons who have held to the
suicide theory since the tragedy.
crowded about Brooks and shook his
hand. Among those who congratulated
the young man enthusiastically were
women who had been in the court room
since The trial began, ready at all times
to applaud any occurrences favoring
the defense. Two kissed the prisoner.
Judge Advises Jury.
Diminishing the jury after the defense
had completed its case and the state
mad rested judge Trip advised the
attorneys, that having heard the evil
dence, he had decided to advise the
jury to acquit. The law of South Da-
kota does not permit the court to In
struct q jury. In his opinion the court
said the state had failed absolutely to
connect Brooks with the killing. The
state agreed that argument would be
useless in view of the courts stand.
while it is not within the power
of the court, under the laws of the
state, to direct a verdict or to decide
any points other than questions of
law. there is yet remaining one point
of law before this case goes to the
jury" said Judge Trip. THAT ques-
ton is. Is there any evidence here to
connect this defendant with the crime?'
It is true that man may be con-
vlcted on circumstantial evidence, but
the evidence must be of such ma
ture as to extinguish any reasonable
hypothesis of innocence. do not think
that is the case here
States Attorney Speaks.
Judge Trip said he appreciated the
position of The states attorney and
invited A. B. Beck to say a few words
to the jury explaining why the case
was brought, to trial. So.
With tears streaming down his, face,
the states attorney told the jury he
was, sure that ,Menzie. who had been
his friend, was not guilty Of the muir
der of the innocent young woman who
died with him in the lumber yard. He
said the case had been prematurely
forced to trial, but that he yet had
hopes that the murderer would be
brought to justice and the blot cleared
from the name of Menzie, for the sake
of his wife and family.
States Attorney Beck's term Of Of
flee will expire tomorrow when his
successor will qualify. Sheriff L. w
Rifle who has been active in the in
vestigation of the. murder also retires.
but it is stated that the investigation
will not end here.

Turk Salesman Here on Way
to Dare MiIitarists of
Australia

Commercialism continues to be the
ruling passion of the age in spite of
the great war in Europe as proved by
the arrival on the Sonoma in Honolulu
yesterday of A. Aprahamian, a sub
ject Of Turkey who after detention
in British prisons in Vancouver is en-
route to Australia to take chances
of Imprisonment for the opportunity
to sell auto supplies in the common
wealth.
Aprahamian is a true knight of the
grip and intends to put his goods
across the line of unfortunate diseri-
mination brought on by the war.
His commercial travels led him
from New York to Canadian territory
a month ago where he was promptly
seized at Vancouver to account for be-
ing born an enemy to the Allies. Aft
er subsequent investigation it was
learned that Aprahamian was a native
of Constantinople but had lived in
so many different countries that he
could lay claim to eight and prove
intimacy with all by fluent use of
that many languages. He was releas-
ed upon advice from Ottawa with the
suggestion to steer clear of British
territory.
81, should worry about their deten-
ton camps" said, the progressive
Turk in the Royal Hawaiian hotel
where his goods were on display this
morning. Il believe in being sport
to try everything at least once"
He received a return cable from his
partner, Frank w. Keegan of New.
York, telling him to proceed to Aus
tralia with his goods and if denied
admission to go to Java and the Phi
lippines. Aprahamian Is uncertain as
to his reception at Auckland but will
sail en- the Niagara tomorrow to take
his chances.
