P~ocahontas. Sept. 16.-R. D. BoIlard
Of this place. went to Ware on business
yesterday and on his return home
shortly after I O'Clock found his wife
sitting in a chair by the window dead

A hole was burned in the floor at
her feet and another hole burned thru
the floor near the stove but the fire
was almost burned out when discov-

Mrs. RolIard has suffered from a
stroke of paralysis several years ago

fire reached her as she was found sit
ting with her hands folded in her lar
and evidently had made no effort to
fight the fire or get out.

WILL NOT MAKE
IMMEDIATE CHARGES
Attorney Advises Him to Delay Action
Until Seattle Authorities Decide on
Course-Mieht Embarrass Case f
One Is Pushed Late-StiIl Believes
Sister Was Murdered For Fortune.

Fort Dodge, Sept. 16.-Gabriel Dan
ielson, of Gowrie, is not going to make
any immediate charges against Perci-
val V. Allen. Of Seattle, but is going to
wait and see what action is taken by
the Seattle authorities. "
Altho Mr.. Danielson has said that he
is ready to bring charges of murder
against the man who he believes
murdered his sister ne has been ad-
vised by his attorneys in Fort Dodge
to wait for the Seattle prosecutor to
act.
This was learned thru an authori-
tative source. 1t could not be learned
what course Mr.. Danielson will take
if no charges are brought in Seattle.
1t is probable that he does not know.
If the Seattle prosecutor declares the
evidence insufficient and drops the
case. Mr.. Danielson would. of course
have the right to bring a charge, but
it is doubtful if much could be ac-
complished by such o procedure.
AS pointed out by an attorney, a
crime is considered to be committed
against the state and not against the
individual and it is the duty of the
state to punish and not the right Of
the individual to seek what might be
considered as revenge thru the chan
nels of the court.
Thus in returning an indictment a
grand jury acts almost entirely on the
recommendation Of the prosecuting at
torney. If the prosecutor feels the
aNi1anpa sTftipiant fnr tho ncr,Sn| Yn
stand trial the Indictment is returned
and if the prosecutor declares the evil
Gence insufficient the case is usually
dropped.
This would make it exceedingly diff
flcult for Mr.. Danielson to get a grand
jury indictment if the Seattle prose-
cutor drops the case.
