COURT TAKES POINT UNDER ADVISEMENT Mrs. Jennie Matthla Given a Verdict Against an Accident Association on Account of Death of Hasbnnd. The trial of S. P. Hughes, a solicitor employed by the Equitable Home associa tion, on the charge of conducting a build ing and loan business without lawful au thority, was begun In the district court yesterday afternoon. F. R. Beeman, local manager of the association, was Indicted on a similar charge, and triatrial has been assigned to follow that of Hughes. It is contended by the prosecution that Hughes and Beeman, as representatives of the Equitable Home association, were do ing business In the state without having first secured the requisite authority from the auditor of state, such as all building and loan associations are required to have. For the defense It Is contended that the Equitable Home association did not come under the Iowa laws governing building and loan associations. In a stipulation filed with the court yes terday the defendant admitted that neither he nor the association had authority from the state auditor to do business In Iowa. Only one witness, Mrs. M. J. Severlne, was Introduced by the state to prove that the defendant, Hughes, had Induced her to invest her money In one of the associa tion's contracts. When the authorities be gan investigating the methods of the as sociation, according to the testimony of Mrs. Severlne, the . defendant offered to take back her contract and pay her more money for It than she had Invested and had tried to persuade her to sign a paper releasing him from all liability. At the close of Mrs. Severlne's testimony the state rested its 'case and counsel for the defense moved to direct a verdict for Hughes, on the grounds that the Indictment was defective, In that It was not broad enough and failed to charge a violation of the acts of the twenty-ninth general assembly. Judge Wheeler reserved his rul ing on the motion until this morning. Holds Death an Accident. The jury in the suit of Mrs. Jennie L. Matthis, administratrix of the estate of the late E. R. Matthis, against the Aetna Life Insurance company, brought In a verdict yesterday morning finding for the plaintiff for the full amount sued for. The Jury had been out since Wednesday morn ing. In this case Mrs. Matthis sued for 12,000 and interest under a policy of acci dent Insurance held by her husband at the time of his death. The company' resisted payment, contending that Matthis' death waa due to a utroke of apoplexy and not to an accident. Matthis, who waa an engineer on the Union Pacific, was found unconscious in his room in a hotel In Grand Island, and after lingering for several days died without regaining consciousness. . His death was attributed to cerebral hemor rhage, and it was claimed by the family that the circumstances indicated that Mat thla had In some manner fallen with such violence as to rupture a blood vessel in the brain, while on the other hand the .Insurance company claimed that death resulted from a stroke- of apoplexy. In the suit ot George Ouderklrk against the Petersen & Schoenlng cumpuny to re cover 6300 damages for Injury to his barn by Are, Judge Wheeler yesterday morning took the case from the jury and ordered a verdict for the defendant company, on the grounds that there was no evidence show ing that the defendant company was in any way responsible for the fire. Plumbing and heating. Blxby ft Son. Arrest Ends Uatlna;. Emit Barrett, Edward Burlos, Alphonso Wulet and George Larampe, members of a party from Omaha, which spent the day at Augustine's on this side of the river, flBhing and otherwise enjoying themselves, were arrested last evening, charged with assaulting Gus Browelelt, a young farmer ot Lewis township. According to Browelelt, who rode into the city and complained to the authorities, the party, after driving through his farm and over his sowed Aelds, commenced shooting Indiscriminately, several bullets passing dangerously close to Broweleit's head and others near the small school bouse at the time the children were leaving for their homes. Browelelt expostulated with the men and demanded at first $16 and then 16 as com pensation for the damage done his place. The men, all ot whom are Frenchman, laughed at his request and when ha at tempted to back It up at the point of a revolver they "stuck him up" as he ex pressed It, with their rifles. Hater sella lunrober. Catch the idea? Hnaklna Brothers Make Vp. A twenty-four hours' enforced so. journ behind the bars at the city Jail decided James and - Joshua Has klns, the warring brothers, thst it would be mora conducive to their mutual welfare to shake hands and make up. When they appeared before Judge Scott In police court yesterday to answer to the charge ot disturbing the peace, tbey both Informed the court that they had become reconciled and the court after a slight admonition discharged them. Thomas Maloney, administrator ot the es tate of William Haaktns, who was drowned at Lake Manawa, secured an order yester day from Judge Wheeler citing James Haskins to appear In court Saturday morn ing for examination touching his refusal to turn over certain property belonging to the estate, which It la alleged he has In his possession. He Is said to have two dia monds and 50 In cash belonging to his dead brother which he declines to account for. Prisoner Becomes Insane. Charles Pullman, who waa serving a thirty days' sentence in the county jail for the theft of chickens, was committed to St. Bernard's hospital yesterday by the commissioners on Insanity. For the last few days Pullman had been acting strangely and gave signs of being mentally unbalanced. Wednesday evening he per sisted In tearing his clothing off and walk ing around the main corridor of the Jail In a state of nudity. Testerday morning he followed up the disrobing stunt by attempt ing to dash his brains out against the bars of his cell. Pullman became so violent that he had to bo placed In a straight Jacket.

MAM ENDORSED BT CHURCH Dsi sfoinet City Administration Wins sn Uoutuil Ooraplimtnt IOWA DOCTORS ARE IN CONVENTION Cases of Typhoid and Toberenlosle to Bo Heported to the State Board of Health In the Future. (From a Staff Correspondent.) DES MOINES, May 19. (Special.) A re markable incident in municipal affairs was reported when the news was carried to the city administration today that ati largely attended prayer meeting In the University Christian church last night resolutions highly eulogistic of Mayor Mattrrn, Chief of Police Jones, Police Judge Mnttls and others of the administration were passed, and that the church as a body was ready to stand back of 'the city ad ministration. State Medical Association. About 200 doctors of the state are In the city attending tho annual meeting of the Iowa State Medical association. Dr. J. A. Scroggs of Keokuk presided. Mayor Mattern delivered a brief address of wel come and It was responded to by D. C. Brockman of Ottumwa, The program of papers and discussion of matters relating to the profession was commenced and will be continued for three days. The only mat ter about which there is discussion is ns to the manner of the organization. An effort Is being made to change the plan of organization adopted last year and re turn to the individual plan. The new plan is for county and district organizations to represent the state body and not by Individual membership. It is causing much discussion and will be taken tip and dis posed of by the house of delegates. New State Laboratory. The State Board ot Health, in session today, had under consideration the plans for the perfection of the state bacterio logical laboratory provided for by the last legislature. Prof. Albert, professor of pa thology and bacteriology in (he State uni versity, who is to have charge of the laboratory at Iowa City, was In consulta tion during the day with the members of the state board. He will go to other states with Dr. Powers of the state board on a tour of Inspection of other similar .labora tories to get ideas in regard to the work. The laboratory at Iowa City hits already done much of the work for the state board end for the local health boards and quite recently has achieved a notable triumph In discovering and destroying the source of a typhoid epidemic in Waterloo. The State Board of Health spent most of the day considering the case of Dr. Full lam of Muscatine, which has been hunglng fire the past year and over. Dr. Fulllam was accused of having failed or neglected to report smallpox and the movement was made to take his certificate away from him. He Insisted that it was not smallpox and was ready to stand trial. The board took evidence In the case during the day. It Is similar to numerous cases which I have come before the board the past few years. The State Board of Health made an order directing that hereafter typhoid fever and tuberculosis should be Included In the con tagious diseases which It is required the local health officers shall promptly report to the state board. There have been so many cases of these diseases the board will try to prevent their spread. Bonftht Land at Knoxvllle.

GOLD DISCOVERER 1$ DEAD Man Wbo First Lorntea It In Black Hills Pasaes Away Near Scene of Ills Find. DEADWOOD, a D., May 19 (fipeclnl.) H. N. Ross, the man who first discovered gold In tho Black Hills, passed nway at his home in Custer on Tuesday morning. Ross was sent out by the United States government with tha Custer expedition, which passed over this country In the early days of 187S, and It was ho who prospected the various streams for placer gold. Prof. Jenney, who accompanied the expedition, made a report unfavorable to the presence of gold In the IBack Hills, but the report that Ross made was responsible for the country's settlement at that time by tha whites. He said that gold was to be found on every stream he prospected nnd In pay ing quQ-'tltles. That was enough, and, de spite the fact that Prof. Jenney had re ported to the Interior department that It "was useless to look for gold in the shales and schists of the Black Hills," it was not many weeks before the trails leading west were crowded with future residents and the Block Hills became a part of civilized America, despite tho efforts of a few self important government officials and the en tire Sioux nation. Boss had an experience in the Black Hills and the country surrounding It that would have mnde the reputation of many of the self-styled border heroes. In 1873 lie made the first discovery of gold on French creclt, in Custer county, and since that time had made his home there, dodging soldiers and Indians for the first few years of his occu pancy.
