All of the proprietors and attaches ot the
gambling houses In Council Bluffs were In
vited by the sheriff nnd his deputies to call
at the ofllco or the clerk of the district court
and give bonds ( or their appearance for
trial on the charge of gambling. Indict
ments were returned against all of them In
accordance with Instructions from Judge
Green at the beginning of the present term.
The attaches of the "Hoffman" Indicted are :
William Llncbergcr. Charles Stcpfnn , Thomas
Hatllff , Frank Hcndrlcks , John Madden ,
Charles Athcrtcxi and Jack White. The In
dictments against the men connected with
Shofferly's place .icioss the street called tor
thu arrest of H. H. Inman , Frank Hardln ,
Ed Anderson , William C. Jenkins and John
Sheffcrly. All ot the men appeared and
gave the bonds required $400 In each case.
Gambling has long been carried on openly
In Council Bluffs , without hit or hindrance
from thu authorities. This Is the llrst time
In many months that the Illegal business
has been Interfered with in the least. Even
now the gamblers do not appear to be
greatly worried over the outcome. The In
dictments liavo been bruited about since
last Saturday and It has been generally un-
deistood that warrants would bo served
some time , but Just when was not given
out. It was not until the gamblers ware
quite ready to give ball that any action
was taken.
Last night the gambling houses were run
ning full blast agiiln , the llttlo formality of
Indictment and arrest apparently cutting
small figure with the men who have the
matter In charge. The gamblers rely very
largely on the Indisposition heretofore shown
by the authorities to Interfere with them ,
and feel n certain degree of security as a
result of past immunity. It has been a club
held over the heads of the city administration
that If the gambling houses were closed the
saloons would bs closed nso ! , and while the
municipal authorities have not felt like en
dorsing open gambling they have not been
willing to risk the city losing the $40.000 a
year now gained from saloon licenses. Anil
thus defiant the gamblers have flourished.
The- present difficulty is said to be directly
duo to a personal encounter between Llne-
bcrgcr and a local attorney who has spent
much 11 mo and same money at Llncberger's
place , the "Hoffman. " Lineborger had the
belter of the physical encounter , but let-
trs : subsequently addressed to Judge Green
brought the ehargo to the grand Jury which
en led In the Indictment of the gang.
County Attorney 'Saunders has not yet ex
pressed hlmoelf for publication on the mat
ter , but there Is little doubt he will see the
matter through. Some of the Indicted men
are- liable to the penalties of the new
habitual criminal act , having been once be
fore Indicted on the some charge.

DctnllM ( o Ho Arraiieeil.
The city council will hold a special session
this evening for the purpose of completing
arrangements for the special election to de
termine whether or not the Lake Manawa
Hallway company shall have the extension
of the charter that was granted by the city
council on the loet day of September. By
proclamation the mayor ban fixed December
1 as the date of the election , but the council
Is required by law to designate the polling
places and name the judges and clerks of
election. It has already been determined
that the voting shall be done In the name
places that were used at the ntnto election
on November 2. The same Judges and clerks
will also serve , but It Is necessary to desig
nate them and specify the fact that all ex
penses must bo berne by the company de
siring the concession to be voted on.
The council will also take up some mat
ters connected with the sidewalk contracts
recently awarded , which provide for the
construction of a largo amount of plank
walks In the western part of the city. It Is
against the policy of the present city ad
ministration to permit the construction of
any inoro plank walks , but the contracts
were let In response to petitions from prop
erty owners , many of whom asked for walka
to bo laid on temporary grade. It was found
that n largo portion of the wafts would be
laid on permanent grade and In a part of the
city where It has been Impossible to pre
vent people from carrying away bodily and
using for llrcwood all wooden walks that
have been laid for the last few years. Con
tractor Wlckham was at thu city building
yesterday and announced his willingness to
hive thceo walks cut out of his contract
and the order will bo made at the meeting
this evening.

The greater portion of the day yesterday
was consumed In the superior court by hear
ing the arguments In the squatter land
cases Involved in the suit of A. W. Street
and others against B. F. Tuinbleson and
others. The suit Involvru the accretions to
several lots In the old Ferry addition to
Council Bluffs , each lot carrying a strip of
land equal In width to thu lot from tbo
western line to the river front , a distance of
nearly half a mile. The evidence was taken
last week , and It Is expected that a couple
of days will bo devoted to hearing the argu-
mtjnts. Judge Woolworth of Omaha and N.
SI. Pufoy of Council Bluffs represent the
plaintiffs and Langdou & Langdon of Omaha
the defendants. The plaintiffs hold the
tltlts from the Ferry company and the de
fendants have squatted on the accreted portion
tion and are claiming title under the federal
homestead laws. Thu plaintiffs claim that
the largo addition to their original lots was
the result of slow accretions by the gradual
changes of the river channel. The de
fendants have set up several defenses , the
chief one that the change In the river was
the result of evulsion , or sudden change ,
which would leave the new land in the
former bed of the river and make It govern
ment domain , They also attack the validity
of the plaintiff's title and claim that the
Ferry company under Its articles of Incor
poration .had no authority to buy lands for
speculative pur penes , and consequently bad
no power to convey the lots In question to
the plaintiffs. The defense ) also attacked the
original book of entry upon tlio ground that
It was not evidence of tltlo.
The case la of great Importance for the
reason that a large number of similar cases
will depend upon the solution of this one ,
Indictment May Prove Illegal.
There is some doubt among attorneys as
to the legality of the Indictment returned by
the grand Jury on Saturday against Heraorly
Fuller under the now habitual criminal act.
The law did not go Into effect until October
1 and the two previous Instances ot petty
larcniy charted against the boy and named
lu the Indictment were committed a year
a < o4 Tlili jv uld auxVo the new law r tro-
active. The offense , for which the boy was
arrested the last time was entering the Uarn
ot W. Groneweg and stealing harness. The
value of the harness was not great enough
to constitute grand larceny and the fact thai
10 did not break Into the barn will not moke
the offense burglary , The boy has been ar
rested six or seven times within the last
few years and convicted ao often ot petty
stealing.

tlement of the claim and had Intimated Mr ,
Smith's willingness to make another test.
The committee reported that It had made a

J. J. Shea amended his petition In his ap
plication to Judge Green In the district cour
yesterday morning -for an Injunction to re
strain the city from paying any more war
rants or other evidences of Indebtedness
The new matter made it necessary for the
city attorney to ask for a continuance , an <
the date has been fixed for next Thursday
morning
Shea's amendment relates to the flnancta
transactions of the city as far back as 1884
and contains a statement of the bowls Issuci
and other Indebtedness Incurred from the
beginning of that year until the prescn
time. He aska the court to take this state
incut and separate the bonds and other kinds
of Indebtedness Into two classes , one to rep
resent what the court may determine to bo
the legal Indebtedness and the other to be
necessarily Illegal , and to enjoin the city
from paying the portion that has been de
termlned to bo Illegal. This amendment to
the original petition Is regarded as verj
greatly , simplifying the case ami will enahlt

Jleilienl Testimony In
liitroitttrril.
CEDAU IlAriDS , la. , Nov. 15. ( Special
Telegram. ) Much progress was made in the
oleuratcd Novak murder trial nt Vlnton to
day. The state rested Its case late In the
ftcrnoon and tlio defense began the Intro
duction or Its testimony.
It Is yet too early to determine what the
Ino of the defense will ho. It la bellovcd ,
lowevcr , that a general effort will ho made
o explain away the chain ot circumstantial
ovldenco which the state has woven around
ho accusQd. Nothing startling occurred dur-
ng the morning session , a larger part of It
being devoted to an effort on the part of the
defense to have Detective Perrln , who was
on the stand Saturday afternoon , Impeach
iltnsclf. Mr. Pcrrln remained close to the
story he told Saturday and the questioning
by the counsel for the defense developed
nothing now.
The afternoon was largely taken up with
lie-testimony of Drs. C. C. Grlffen and J. P.
Whitney of Vlntcti , tlio men who made an
examination of the skull ot Edward Mur-
uy after the body had been exhumed from
ho Norw.y cemetery nnd severed from the
body. Iloth men testlllcd that there was a
spot on the right sldo of the skull , about
an Inch and a half In length and an Inch
wide which Indicated a fracture ot the skull.
They also testified that there was a rupture
on thu dura mater almost directly under this
fracture and there was a blood clot cu the
right sldo and extending to the back part
of the head. This blood clot was baked and
weighed eleven ounces , which was four
ounces inoro than medical authorities recog
nized could be contained within thn skull
when It was Intact. They gave the opinion |
that heat would not have caused a breaking *
down of the blood vessels of the 'brain ' and
caused this blood clot to form In the skull
and that It could como only from a fracture
of the skull and a rupture of the dura mater.
The details ? sought to have the testimony
of Drs. Grlffen and Whitney stricken out
on the ground that Dr. Iltimk-y , the expert
physician who conducted the nulopsy before
the coroner's Jury , was the only competent
person to testify to the condition of the
skull and that at least his opinion should
have been brought out by the state when he
was on the stand. The court overruled this
motion and admitted the evidence.
The defense Introduced Joseph Dostal , n
Cedar Uaplds druggist , ot whom Novak
sought to buy poison previous to the Wai-
ford lire , saying ho j wjnted to put It In
whisky for the benefit .of burglars who
might break Into his 'plnce ' , ntid C. D. Van-
Vechten , who testified In. regard to Novak
paying the premiums on t\vo policies held In
the Northwestern MOtuql Life Insurance
company , and his efforts to secure a paid
up policy nnd discontinuance so that ho
might take out Insurance .lu some other com
pany.

DE3 MOINES , Nov. i 15. ( Special. ) The
more experience that Is had under the new
code the clearer It lccom.cs ) that the coming
session of the legislature will have to make
many corrections tmd amendments to It ,
Not that the new code contains any radical
blunders ; It Is conceded on the whole that
the new code Is nji excellent one , and evi
dences are not wanting that legislatures of
other states are realizing the fact that the
new Iowa code Is the latest and most up-to-
date compilation of statutes In the country.
But It need bo no matter of surprise that
many minor errors , chiefly of omlaslou , have
been perpetrated. Moat of them result from
the anxiety of the assembly to assure econ
omy in ctatc expenditures and to stop leaks
wherever they could bo tound. For Instance ,
It was discovered n short tlmo before Oc
tober 1 , when the new laws became ef
fective , that they contained no provision
under which the state could buy postage
stamps for use In Its business. Heretofore
tbo council lias bought postage stamps and
paid many other accounts out of a fun.l
placed under Its discretionary control. The
legislature was fearful that there was too
much discretion In 'some directions , and pro
ceeded to eliminate discretion ot all kinds.
H hunted for discretion wherever It could
bo found and as fast ns deposits were un
earthed applied the elimination prncera.
It chanced that the largest aggregation of
dlscretlouarr power was represented In sec
tion 120 of the old code. The executive coun
cil was glvon > control over this fund1 and the
provision" of section 120 was that at Its dis
cretion' the council could pay bills which It
deemed necessary out of the fund. In 1833 ,
when the state troops were celled to Council
Bluff * and Sioux City to suppress riots , the
bill for their services was paid from this
fund , under the provisions ot section 120.
The state auditor was not very positive that ,
tbo section gave him authority to draw the
warrants for such a purpose and Insisted
that the supreme court pass on the matter
before ho would draw them. Accordingly ,
( in agreed CUBO was submitted to that body
and It ruled that the auditor was authorized
In drawing the warrant on this fund. Slnco
then the section has been a general author
ity for paying 'bills ' that were not provided
for eiflowhero. When the last assembly waa
revising the laws It decided that there was
too general a discretion and cut It all out
of the section. It provided that no bill , of
any sort whatever , should be paid unless
from an appropriation which specifically conferred -
ferred authority for Just such a bill. Sec
tion 120 was a dead letter. With It went thu
pcaco and harmony and happiness of the cx-
ecullvo council ,
Postage stamps had been paid for under
thlu section for more than a generation
without a specific appropriation. A few
dayB before the new laws took effect It wan
found that thuro was no contemplation In
the new code of postage ; It was absolutely
Impossible for the council to pay for postage
under the now laws. The legislature had
tied the hands ot the council , locked It up ,
nailed It down and left Itwith no power
whatever , Uncle Sam-Is not In the habit of
trusting oven his moat rollablo customers for
stamps , and the oueBtlon arcse , how were
stamps to bo purchased under the new re
gime ? It wan decided'tint time must be
taken by the forctop.aiAu emissary was sent
over to the postolllco and $4,000 worth of
postage stampa wore taught and carted over
to the capltol , wliero they were locked In the
vault of the treasurerto bo doled out as ro-
qulrcd. It wan eMUinctl that the legislature
would pass an. appropriation to pay for them
xvhcn It should meet ; nieantlme , as section
120 was etlll In force , the council operated
upder that enchanting' provision ,
NO 1'AV FOR 1.AUXDRY.
But this was not ain 'Somo of tbo salaries
of etato olllvers had > not been provided for ,
and It was only by stretching the law. In
opinion. ? of the attorney general , that they
could be met , Klnilly the real Issue was
raised over the qntutlon of state bouso
towels , The discovery-'was made that there
was no appropriation to pay for laundering
the state bouse towels. Towels are regarded
as very necessary to the occupants of the
building , and there were Indignation meet
ings In every corridor when It was announced
that hereafter there would bo no laundry
bills at public oxpentie. And there have been
nor.o from that day.
Another edifying discovery which has Just
been made Is that the new law makes It
Impossible to pay the annual bonus to county
and district fair associations. In 1859 a law
was | 6 < ied that J200 should be donated an
nually by the state to each fair association
whit-fa should make proper proofs that the
fair bad been held. Under this section It
ban been customary tor the secretary of the
State Agricultural society to receiveUho war
rants from the auditor end mall them to the
several district { aim. But this rail 4he at
torney general raised the question whether
such payment could bo made within the laws.
Ho has not Issued n formal opinion on tbo
subject , but has been expected for a month
to make an oflclal ! utterance , There are 113
ot these fairs , which this year would draw
$22,000 from the state. They are sending
word , through their officers , by nearly every
mall that they want their wirrnntB and want
them very much , but they arc not forthcom
ing.Ono
Ono of Hio cases which promises a deal of
trouble relates to the Homo for Soldiers' Or
phans at Davenport , lu the past the law has
provided that when orphans or Indigent chil
dren of soldiers were admitted to the home
the state should pay for their maintenance.
Other children were to bo supported by the
counties from , wSilch they were sent , The
now cede changes the law and relieves the
Rtato of the burden ot paying for even the
children of soldiers ; they are to bo charged
to the counties , as other Indigent or orphan
children , The change means In substance
that the Davenport home Is no longer n etato
Institution ; It means that the homo will be
a much less Important concern , for the coun
ties have never contributed many Inmates.
The people of Davenport arc up In arms
and announce that they will Invade the leg
islature acid make things very lively If the
old law Is not restored. The curious part
Is that there Is some question whether the
cl.ango In the law was Intentional or ac
cidental. Members ot the legislature have
declared that they didn't know the change
was Involved in the new laws and that they
don't believe anybody realized Its force. The
next assembly will liavo opportunity to BO
ru record squarely and Indubitably on the
matte ; .

Hill Midi Their .Money.
EI-DOIIA , la. , Nov. 15. ( Special. ) The ad
ministrators of the doorgo. H. Wlsncr estate
liavo made their final report and Jiavo been
discharged by the court.
The settlement of this large estate recalls
this wealthy Wlsncr family and the power
their money exerted and the good deeds It
did In this ecctlcn of Iowa. In three short
I ycara father , mother and son all passed away
I and Oilman H. 'Wlsncr ' , only son ot George
j II. , Is the living relative bearing the Wlsncr
name.
Lyman P. Wlsncr , .banker . , capitalist and
land owner ami thu .head of this family , was
I the wealthiest man In central Iowa. He
amassed a fortune of over $1,000,000 by com
ing to Hardln county at an early day with
but a pair of willing hands. He married Miss
Julia Hatch und by their union they had one
eon , George. Mr. Winner was president of
the Hardln County bank here uivl of the
First National bank at Iowa Falls , owned
the well known "Sunnysldo farm" of EOIIIO
l.CCO acres at Iowa Rills andi owned land lu
nearly' halt ot the states of the union.
Whllo hunting near his farm near Iowa
Falls by tSie accidental discharge of a shot
gun ( Mr. Wlsncr was killed In August , 1S > S9.
Djlng Intestate , his widow Inherited her
third of the vast estate and the only son
George the remainder. Having never before
been allowed to handle any of his father's
business and being placed In control of such
vitt wealth , the young man soon displayed
remarkable business sagacity and shrewd
ness. Following his father's sudden dcnvlsp
young Wlsner was married In the autumn ol
the year of his father's dcalii to ' .Miss Fanulo
Oilman , one ot the society favorites ot this
county and daughter of Charles C. Oilman ,
cx-presldcnt of the Iowa Central railway
ptesldcnt of the Oilman terra cotta works
and an Inventor of much prominence. Ilj
careful management , assisted by J. D. New
comer , financial secretary to his lute father
Gcorgo II. Wlsncr added largely to , his portion
tion or his father's estate. January 11 , 1VJ.1
young Wlsner died .very suddenly of a com
plication of diseases.
Hardln county at that time had Just been
through a noted county seat light. A new
court iiouso costing { 50,000 .had just been
completed , built largely with Wlsner money
George H. Wlsner died without leaving a
will and the first case that came up 'In the
new temple of justice was a contest as to
whom should administer the affairs ot this
largo estate. Mrs. Julia A. Wlsner chose J
D. Newcomer , the friend and adviser ot her
husband and son. The widow , Airs. Fannie
Wlsner , assisted by her father , C. C. Gilman -
man , chose J. L. Williams , a prominent
banker , now dead , of Marshalltown. After
a long and bitter legal Iflglit , causing manj
animosities witlch will never be forgotten
Mr. Williams was chosen , Soon after the
death ot George and having so much trouble )
and grieving so continually over the death
j ot her only son , -.Mrs. Julia A. Wlsuer dice
of a broken heart In 'April , 1S93.
I The bulk of Mrs. Wlsner'a money went to
: her grandchildren , son and daughter o :
! George. These children. Oilman and Ixils
i are now aged about 7 years and each In-
| herlted one-third of their father's estate am
a largo amount from their grandmother. A
i the time of reaching their majority these
I children will be millionaires , The widow o
] G. H. Wlsncr has again been married to
I Frank W. Crockett , who was county clerk
of Hardln county at the time of the cele-
brnted administrator contest. Mr. Crockett
lias been appointed guardian of one of the
minor children and is a young man of gooi
! business qualifications. Jamea U Williams
who was administrator of Uie estate ot George
II. Wlsncr , was stricken with apoplexy before
fore the affairs of his administratorship had
been settled.
A magnificent monument was built nt
j lowr. Falls over the remains of Lyman I'
Wlsncr at a cost of $10,000. George II. Wis-
I ner and mother arc ! burled hero and the ex
ecutors of 'Mrs. Wlsner will have placed u
$0,000 monument over her grave.
Mrs. 'Wlsner ' before her death g > ive $10,000
for the building of the Congregational church
hero and placed therein a $5,000 pipe organ
as a memorial to her son George. No less
1 'than $500,000 of the Wlsner fortune was cx-
| pcndcd In Eldora during the life of tht
family.

DUDUQUE , Nov. 15. ( Special. ) Tlio dis
covery has been recently mcdo that at least
two soldiers ot the revolution Ho buried In
Iowa soil. The grave of one In Henry
county Is In a neglected spot In the woods
and < ho other Is marked by a llttlo Jiiound
ntout a mlle north of Worthlngton , in this
enmity. The name of this vtor.in who
ended his days In Dubuijiio county was ) , u-
cinub Klfllo , and ho waa Sb years uld when
be died In 1848 , Ho was Horn In 1TCO , and
er..crc-l . ; the Hcvolutlonary war while ye : n
IPITO boy. Ho was a member of u Con
necticut Infantry company. After the war
he came west , hut It was not uirll 18.10
tint ho took up his residence la orthliK-
ton , Thcro he dwelt with his wife , nnd
they made friends of the Indians f "Mlsli-
nuuko tribe. " The Indians learned to wor-
| ablp Klfllo , and for a long time after his
death they visited his wife regularly that
she might not want. Luclous KIIII ? built
the first grist and saw mill In thu section
of the country. He named It the Hotlc-
vlllo mill. The first sermon ever preached
In 'this ' western country was preached In
Klfllo's houao by Simon Clark , Hit * explorer.
Old residents of Dubuque remember well the
aged man. Ho came to Dobuqun regularly
twlco a month to market his produce. He
was peculiar , and many thought him esttiiu
trie. He had the old Pilgrims' manners ,
and followed their customs. People -knew
him to sit In his homestead at Worthlngton
all through the .Sabbath day and pray. Not
until recently was It known that ho had a
record as a soldier In the war of the revo
lution , which fact was developed by an ex-
amlnattn of > the papers he left.

The friends of the Iowa Soldiers' Orphans'
Home and Home for Indigent Chlldrca , lo
cated near this city , and especially the old
poldlers , are Indignant at the change which
was made In the title of the Institution' and
apparent change In Its character made In the
revised cede of the state , tbo Importance of
which Is just dawning upon them. Tbo
change leaves the Institution no longer a
distinctly eoldlem' orphans' home , withdraws
the support ot tbo etato entirely a-nd leaves
It to the counties which have orphans here.
Senator Hayward , the now senator from this
county , has taken the nutter up and will
Insist upca restoration of the old law. The
homo ws established during the war. Con
gress , by an act passed to JS63. donated to
lown the tract of land on' ' which It Is located ,
the same having been purchased early In the
war for the purpose of establishing barracks
for the cavalry regiment * of Iowa. The
land was donated to Ion a for tbo express
purpose of establishing thereon a homo for
the orphans of Iowa soldiers , mil H stipu
lated that low * dhould maintain such a homo
there. The homo was established with money
donated largely by the Iowa Roldlers In the
field , they having contributed for this pur
pose the sum of $1CO,000. The Twentieth
Iowa gave the sum of $6GOO and the Second
Iowa cAvntry gave $10,000. which latter was
the largest sum given by any single regiment.
The stalt > of Iowa decupled this money nnd
took charge of the home for the old sol
diers. The effort to have the state abandon
the home , or at least to relieve It of further
responsibility tor Its maintenance- , will bo
bitterly resented by the old soldiers of the
state.
