Meeting one Another for the first time
yesterday morning Louis II. Peterson,
n widower -I" year of tigs, nnd Miss Anna
Mmberg, a. handsome young woman who
gavo her ngs as 26, wero mnrrlod last even
ing In the pnrsonagn of tho First Presbyte
rian church by tbe 'pnator, Hev. W. S.
Barnes.
bonis H. roterson formerly lived In hls
city, whore hs owns, among other property,
n houao and lot on Benton Btreet. After tho
.death of his first wlfo ho moved to South
Dakota nnd for some- time hart been living
In Vlborg. Fooling tho neWl of a helpmeet,
ho sought, the columns of a matrimonial
roper and advertised for' a wife. In
courso of time he received a re
ply from the young womnn who yester
day became his bride. At tho time sho
anBwijred Peterson's advertisement she was
living In Washington,. D. 0. They corre
sponded and exchanged photographs. The
yotmg woman, however, was not willing to
tako any chances, bo sho Insisted thnt
Peterson' furnish her with reference as to
his reputation.
Peterson jvns willing to do this, so he
wrote to a firm of real estate dealers In
this city which was looking after his prop
erty hero and requested that the head of
tho firm supply tho young woman with the
Information sho sought. In writing to the
firm Peterson said he was "Interested" In a
young woman In Washington who was anx
ious to secure Information concerning htm.
Tho head of the firm considered the matter
was somowhat out of his line of business,
so turned the letter over to his son, a young
attorney, and It was through him that tho
little romance- was brought to a happy
termination yesterday.
The young attorney, who is also junior
member of the firm, wroto the young wom
an, giving her full particulars as to Peter
son's standing and Incidentally told of the
property ho owned In this city. Letter fol
lowed letter until It was arranged that they
should meet here, the young woman coming
from Washington and Poterson from South
Dakota,
MIbb Ltmberg arrived Tueedny evening
and registered at tho Kiel hotel. Peterson
did not reach hero until yesterday morning,
when ho went first to tho office ot tho real
cstato firm, tho Junior' member of which
accompanied htm to tho hotel. As the ex
pectant groom was presented to the young
woman sho gave blm a critical stare and
then, apparently satisfied that he filled the
bill, extended her hand with a emlle, say
ing: "How do you do, Louis?"
After talking over matters for a short
whllo both decided they were satisfied with
each other and, In company with the young
attorney, proceeded to tho district court,
where iho license' was secured; From there
a visit was paid to the pastor's residence
and arrangements were made for the wed
ding In tho evening.
Tho groom announced after the wedding

DOYLE ADJUSTS HIS TESTIMONY
TetU AVhy. Ill Former Ilvlilencr Is
Inconsistent with thnt In
t
Cane at Dnr.
In the Doyle-Burus suit the plaintiff was
on the stand all yesterday and his cross
examination was not completed when court
adjourned for tho day. He will probably
bo on the stand tho greater part of today.
Tho fact that.Doylo was to tell tho. story
of his relations with Burns attracted n
largo crowd Hnd the courtroom was thronged
all day, among top spectators being n
number of women. ;
The featuro of Doyle's testimony in the
morning was his rocltal of the fight which
took place In their cabin when he and
Burns were kicked out by Jerry O'Drlscoll
and O'Halro, He said that nt the time he
and nurns attempted to Jump tho Bobtail
claim and relocato It as the Yellow Jackets
O'Halro camo to thp.-camp .one day while
they were at dinner and asked Burns what
he was doing with his claim. Burns told
O'Halro to go elsewhere, and 'then, tho
wttnesi said, trouble ensued, le wild
O'Halro tacklod Il'ir.ns, while O'Drlscoll
Jumped on him. At that time. "Boyle said,
he weighed only 120 pounds, "while O'Drls
coll weighed ISO. Doyle said O'Drlscoll
soon had him down and began beating and
pounding him. Continuing, ho said:
"I left the cabin. I was 'kicked out, and
I started to get a pine log to .defend my
self, when O'Drlscoll chased roe around
tho cabin. Durns .soon folldwed mo out
of the cahin in front of .Q'Halre's boot.
Jerry went back liild1 tho cabin and when
he came out again with the Winchester
rifle, why, I and .Burns loft about that
tlnio and wn went aud pitched a tent near
Sain Strong's cahlnr leaving O'Drlscoll and
O'Halro In possession."
Doyle's story of .the fight, given without
a smile, proved excellent entertainment for
tho crowd and the court was obliged fre
quently to rap for order. The remalndor
of his testimony related to tho work he
had done with Burns on the several claims
and was corroborative of the evidence of
the previous witnesses.
Senator Patterson, In his cross-examina
tion of Doyle In the afternoon, questioned
him closely ns to the testimony he had
glveii nt the time -of the trial of tho suit
of John D. O'HnJre against Burns and asked
him how ho could explain the Inconsisten
cies when compared with his testimony
In tho suit at bar. Doylo admitted he had
testified falsely In .the: O'Halro suit, espe
cially when he testified that he had writ
ten "J. Doyle & Co.; locators," on the
Portland claim stake.
Explaining his reasons for testifying as
ho did In the O'Halro case, he said;
"Hums went over' the story again and
again with me, nnd he said to me- 'I want
you to repeat It Just as I have, stated It to
you: If you don't, we will be ruined and wo
will loso all,' I bad known poverty all my
life. Ho made It plain to me that every
thing that I had would be lost and taken
nway from'ute. I had tho utmost confidence
In him. I had the greatest esteem for him
nnd his family. ,le tpld met 'This Is under
the advice of counsel and It will be right
up to the truth that you did write your
name on that stake, not right at the
ground, but you can truthfully teitlfy you
wrote jour name on the stake.'"
The mauntr la wbica Uoylt did write bin
name on the stake was explained by him as
follows:
"This Portland stake was In the ground
when this O'llnlre suit wns started. Un
der the advlco of counsel, it wns excavated
from where It had remained In that dump
for months with tho handwriting of Hums
c.n It and If tho slake was found, why
O'Halro would recover from Burns, whom
he grubstaked, so that under the advice of
counsel, who said; 'You get the stake and
tako care of It,' It was dug up. It was tnken
to Bums' house and Burns' handwriting wns
scratched off with a knife and mine sub
stituted. Then the stake was taken Into
the bnsement and rubbed In tho dirt to
wake It appear old. That was the first
time I ever wrote my name J. Doyle. I
always wrote It James Doyle, but simply
wroto over what Bums had originally writ
ten." This Incident In the cross-examination
wns quite dramatic nnd the spectators In
court craned their necks to catch every
,ord as It foil from tho witness, .It was nt
this point In the crofs-exauilnatlon that
court adjourned for the day.
NO PAY FOR SPECIAL POLICE
Tnnnty-Fiinr Olloom Are .ot lilUrly
to drt Hrromnrnse for
Kleellon .lrvlcr.
The twenty-four special policemen em
ployed at the polls on election day will hnvo
a hard tlmo getting their pay unless tho
city council decides to pay them out of
some municipal fund. Last April the su
premo court of Iowa handed down a de
cision to tho effect that special policemen
employed for such purpose have no right to
recover compensation for urh services
from either tho rlty or the county. Tin;
county hoard, acting on the advlco of the
county attorney, han declined to pay them
and the city council has referred tho nini
tor to tho city solicitor for his opinion as
to the city's liability.
Thn decision of tho supreme court was
handed down In n caso from Sioux City,
where a number apeclal policemen em
ployed at tho election In November, 1898,
by tho city assigned their claims for pay
to one person, who brought suit ngalust
both tho city and the county. Tho city de
murred on the grounds that It was not
liable, as such services wero chargeable to
tho county nnd not to It. The county's de
murrer wns based on tho absence of any
provision of tho codo fixing Its liability,
its position being the same ns tnken by
the supervisors of this county. Tho dis
trict court of Woodbury county suetulned
tho demurrer of the county, but overruled
that of tho city. The city failed to plead
over nnd Judgment was entered against It.
Tho city appealed.
In Its decision thn supreme court held
that no recovery for services rendered by
public officers may be had unless com
pensation Is directed by stntuto and that
tho state Is tiot bound to provide for such
payment and he who tnkes employment
under Its agency accepts with tho honors
tho bunions also; further that a claim,
against a city or county Is not Just unloss
tho law somewhere requires or authorizes
Its payment.
Section 1125 of the codo reads' "The city
council shall detail and employ on the
nomination of tho principal committee of
each political party from cltlnens on the
police force of the city from two to four
special pollcomon for each precinct and
fully empower thepi for the special oc
casion nt eaoh election, who shall be men
of good character nnd reputation, In equal
numbers from each of tho leading political
parties. If no policemen be In attendance
the Judges of elcctlou may appoint one or
more specially, by writing, who shall havo
all the powers of such special policemen."
In its decision the supreme court says,
after referring to this section of the code:
"It will be observed that It Is made the
duty' of tho city council to employ' tho
policemen. Tho only section of tho codo
which might be construed ns fixing- lia
bility on tho county Is 1120: 'The expenso
of providing booths, guard rails and other
things requred In this chapter shall be
paid in tho same manner as other election
expenses;' " Tho supremo court, howover,
held that tho services rendered by special
policemen could not be construed as
"things."
Holding that no provision Is made for the
payment by the city of tho special police
men nominated by political parties, tho su
preme court reversed the district court
In fixing tho liability upon the municipality.
Tho Sioux City caso Is Identical with tho
situation now existing hero and the city
council will have a decidedly knotty ques
tion to solve, as It Is understood that tho
city solicitor will make his report In con
formity with the ruling of tho supreme
court. Ono of the aldermen said yesterday
tho only wny ho could seo whereby tho
special policemen could get their pay
would be for the city council to pay them
out ot the contingency fund and trust, to
no one disputing such payment.

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES, Nov. 20. (Special.) The
lime of tho federal court has been largely
taken up thus fur with the trial of the
Morrison glovo case, from (Irlnnell, a enso
having somo features of tnoro than stato
Interest. Morrison runs o large glovo fac
tory nt Orlnncll. Some years ago his em
ployes struck and ho found It Impossible to
sccuro new ones to tako their places, Ho
advertised In the papers for help and could
not get any experienced glovemnkers. lie,
so It Is alleged, then sent to tho United
States consul nt Prague to havo skilled
workers sent over, nnd men came on tho
representations of tho consul and secured
employment at the factory. Then the
Glovcraakers' union had Morrison Indicted
for violation of tho laws against Importa
tion of alien labor. On the trial It lias de.
veloped that thero Is a very strong union
among tho glovcmakcrs, that 600 of tho 700
members live In or near Olovorsvlllo, N.
Y.; that they do not permit apprentice
except thoso who nro sons of tho glove
makers; that thereby tho supply of glove
makers Is limited and a monopoly created.
Morrison wns In tho position of cither go
ing out of business or securing Inbnrers
abroad. Tho question nt Issuii Is whether
or not the glove making Industry Is n new
one nnd, ns such, exempt by tho Immigra
tion laws. Witnesses for the prosecution
f hnvo been hero from Glovcrsvllle and Chi
cago nnd tho caso Involves questions ot In
ternatlnnnl Inw hs well ns tho Interpreta
tion of tho Immigration laws. It is being
tried to the court, District Attorney Miles
appearing for tho prosecution and Con
gressman John F. Liccy for Morrison. Tins
caso was submitted without: argument, hut
Judgment was reserved.
Indletnientn (liianhed.
The Indictments against officials In Ap
panouso couuty have been quashed by Juilgu
Fee. Sheriff Cllmle, Constable Smith and
Justice Henderson wero Indicted for con
spiracy to cheat nnd defraud the county
out of fees. It waB alleged that they had
n plnn whereby tramps were nrrcsted and
put through tho Justlco mill and Immedi
ately rearrested nnd trlod again under nn
othcr name, and thus the fee bills wero
enormounly padded by tho officials. The
business men of Ccntcrvlllo looked Into It
nnd became convinced that something was
wrong. Thoy employed a detective, who
submitted to nrrest a number of tlmos In
this milliner and then went beforo the
grand Jury. In court Judgo Fee has de
cided that the acts recited In tho Indict
ment do not constitute tho crimo for which
they wero Indicted. Ho did stnto that it
might be a caso of obtaining money by fulso
prctenecB, but Is not a conspiracy case.
Pending tho trial Sheriff Cllmlo was re
moved from ofilco and another appointed
temporarily. There Is alto an Indictment
against the sheriff for perjury, which will
come up soon.
