Tlio Coroner's Inquest on the Ilody of Constable I.o nn Develops Homo Htrniicc Knots Other Iowa News. The Municipal Elections. DK ? MOINRI , la. , Match 8. [ Special Telo- Kratn to the IJiu : . ] Tfio result of the munic ipal elections yesteiday show general repub lican calns throughout the state and In some localltlc't very marked republican victories. Two reasons are ascribed for this. The first Is the Kcnrra ! dissatisfaction with the work of tliu democratic administration , now that It has finished half of Its term , and more par ticularly the dissatisfaction on account of the democratic party's course In congress and tlio president's hostility to union soldiers. The old soldier element Is very strong In IOWA and takes an active hand In all politics. The president's vetoes ot pension bills and the ar rogance In power of the copperheads and ex- rebels have stirred up the old soldiers to very active efforts for the success of the republican party , oven In the municipal elections , whoruaa ordinarily com paratively little partisan Interest Is taken In city elections. Tills year republicans pretty generally seemed to think It was tlmo to BO on lecord and so have taken a very earnest part They feel that the administration has been on tiial halt of its time and that now is a good chance for republican town , at least to br in ir In a verdict. The other fact that contributed to republican success nulto largely wus the operation of the now regis tration law. It requires every man who ex pects to vote to be rc lsteied some days In advance , and In ro.'lsterlm ; ho Is put through an investigation that Is very thorouidi and calculated to prevent fr.utd. This registra tion law undoubtedly cost ttie "demo crats several thousand votes by shutting oil' the iinnaturall/ed , the non-iesidents and the eoneral hancvrs-on who usually are on hand to vote the democratic ticket. It leduccd the fraudulent vote to a minimum , and to that extent benolitted tlio republican party and was of a corresponding disadvan tage to the democrats. In this city the republicans made unex pected ( joins. The only vacancies to bo filled were in the board of aldermen , the republi cans electing live out of six , carrylnR some wards with larger majorities than ever be fore. The republicans also elected the whole or a majority of the candidates In the fol lowing cities : Cedar Kaplds , Muscatine , i'alrlield , where they elected their entire tickets tor tlie first time ; Iowa City , where they elected a republican mayor for the lirst time In many years ; Stuart , where they secured entire control of the city for the lirst time In three years ; Ottumwa , where very substantial pains were made ; Toledo , McGregor , Hello Plaine. ( irluucll , Carson. Foi t DodKO , Mount Pleasant , Crestou and Git'cnliohl. The democrats were successful In Davenport , Dubuque and paitlnlly so In Council HI nils , though some of the candi dates there wore on a non-paitisan ticket ; also in Sioux City , Burlington , Fort Madi son , Maquokcta and Le.Mars. In the follow ing cities the elections were non-partisan or involved local issues to the exclusion ot gen eral politics : Clinton , Marshalltown , Terry , -Mason City , Atlantic and llumboldt. In the latter place the issue was whether tlio city should llcensi ) billiard rooms or not , the re sult being In favor of billiards. In Marshall- town the labor candidate for mayor wax elected. The Killing of DBS Moixus , la. , March 8. [ Special Tele gram to the lir.n.l The killing ot Constable Logan last night while he was making an ar rest In the wholesale drug store of Hurlbut , Hess & Co. , has been the subject of excited comment all day. At 3 this afternoon the coroner's jury began Its Inquest and sat with closed doors till 0 o'clock. The only witnesses examined wore the employes of the store where Loean was killed and the policemen who were called In after the traccdy. Tlio Impoitant fact was developed In tlio exam ination that Locan was shot twice. one ball entering Ire in the front and one from the rear , apparently In dicating that after he was first shot ho turned to leave the room and was shot from behind by some person connected with the drug store , three or four of them being present Still , more Important was the testi mony of tlin lirst policeman who saw Logan after he was killed , Ho testified that he found Logan with a self-cocking revolver In his hand , his linger on the trigger , but not a single chamber emcty , thus glvinir strong evidence that Logan never tired a shot , but was killed by some one connected with the store who tired to kill. Campbell , a teamster for the house who stood by when the shoot ing was done , was unable to testify that Logan fired lirst. All of these things together with the fact that the dead Logan was alone with the employes of the store for some time not known before any policeman arrived , and that four empty cartridges were picked up on the floor by tiio police , loads to a good deal ot comment and suspicion that the dead man was not Killed In self-defense. At 0 o'clock the coroner's Jury reported that they found that Logan came to his death from two pistol shots tired by Joseph llowe ( the employe now In custody ) , but that liowe acted In self- defense In shooting him. The verdict , taken In connection with the short tlmo spent In the Investigation , and the character of tno ovldonco presented , occasioned much burprise. Immediately on Its announcement Constable Frank Pierce arrested Uowe on a charge of murder In the llrst degree , and started with him to the north part of the city for a wanant of commitment from a justice than * . There Is much feeling In that part of the city against the prisoner , where trip dead man lived , and an Indignation meeting will bo held tor a public expression. Some ugly threats are now bulng made , and serious re sults may possibly follow before morning. The friends of Logan think he was mur- died while trying to enforce the prohibitory law. It has been developed since the shooting that every ono of tlio em ployes of Hurlbut , Hess & Co. have gone armed since the last car load of liquor con signed to them was s Ued and were probably all armed when Logan entered the store last night to make an arrest.

VARIOUS REASONS ASSIGNED. Xho 1'rcaldcnt Cojisii crliii ; Names for the Inter-State Commerce Commission - mission A , Hcr'nnillc For Senate Scats. A September Sninlou Probable. WASIH.VOTON , Mitvch 8. [ Special Tele gram to tlio lir.K.I It Is generally conceded In ofllclal and congiesihmal circles that there will bo an extra sisslon of the Fiftieth con gress called early next fall. Predictions to this effect are heard everywhere by your cor respondent. The experience of the past two winters In congress has shown very clearly that the interests of tlio country have become altogether too vast and complicated to bo thoiotuhly looked after and kept within the tlmo afforded by the regular session. Much of the llrst or long session Is usually devoted for the promulgation of business for the second end or short session and business thus de. ferrcd from one year to another. In many cases business of the most urgent Importance Is dumped Into the last week or ten days of colics * to be but half done , or badly done , or not done at all. Enough unfinished work Is left over by Its predecessor to eng.igo the attention of the Fiftieth congress till th o 1st ot August. There are various measures that failed to become laws , to postpone which for another year Is grossly unjust to many citizens and seriously damag ing to the Interests of the govern ment Itself. The general deficiency bill Is one ot them , the river nnd harbor bill , and certain expenditures under It , another. Ev erything which the late conference left In a crude and Incomplete condition could bo dis posed of , It Is argued , by an extra session. Much legislation preliminary to the regular inoutliic in December could he gotten Into shape for intelligent and early consideration. The now members , and there are 130 of these , could in tlio meantime bo made conversant with the nature of their duties and derive benefit from a four months' preparatory dis cipline. Great pressure will bo made upon the president to call the Fiftieth congress to gether in the latter part of September. " 1 think most assuredly that there ought to bo an extra session , " said Mr. Henderson , of Iowa , to-nlcht in ia talk with your corre spondent. "Things never have been left so botched and muddled as they were by this last congress. The failure of the river and harbor bill has called up in arms the people In all these sections of the country which were affected by the measure proposed. The failure of the deficiency bill , which cannot fairly be charged to tlio president , will only he felt In certain uuartcrs , but it Is a large thing , you know , to have SU.COO.OOO locked up In the treasury which ought to have been 'expended and was expected In the country. _ J As a matter of fact , theru are two or tlircio of the other appropria tion bills which should , never have been signed , containing oft tlmv did jobs put in at tlio close of the session. However , 1 have no idea that there will u , art/extra / session , and several ot the deiiKjpratlft.leaders to whom I talked just before congress adjourned put no stock In the rumors of aa'pxtra session which were tlion afloat. Even .were an extra ses sion to be called ltls. dpubtful whether It would do anything , to effect the purpose for which it was called. The future of the do- iicioncy bill would npt perhaps In itself bo sntlloient to necessitate tfye calling together or the Fiftieth congress , but It Is another straw added to a nyiubursof matters which tend to make onn ve'rydesirable. " THE INTim-STATnjCOMMlSSlON. The president is anxious to appoint the live members of thovintcr-stita commission as soon as possible , . flnifproposes to iluvole this week to consideration ot the names al ready submitted to him. Inquiry at the white house shows that none ot the slates thus far prepared have been sanctioned in any way by the executive , and as a matter of fact he has not yet tendered a single position to a meinbar of either of the great political parties. It Is his expectation , however , to be able to solve all perplexities by the earlv part of next week and have the board In working order when the bill goes into effect , April 1 , 1SST. It Is well known hero , however , that a strong Influence is at work looking to tlio appointment of ox-Senator Wlniloni , of Min nesota , as one of the members of the board. A SCUAMm-K FOlt SKATS. There has been a general scramble for de sirable seats In the senate chamber since tlio 4th of March , and the next session of con- cress will find a decidedly mixed condition of affairs. Tlio long paragraph senator from Newlork , W. M. hvaits , succeeds to the chair of ex-Senator McMillan , which was In the second row of the center or the republican side. Senator Platt , of Connecticut , has given up an ohscuro scat to assume the ono formerly occupied by Mahoao. of Virginia. while Senator Ulalr , of New Hampshire , and education bill fame , has left the republican side and gone over to the center alslo among the democrats. He will hereafter occupy tliu chair which hold the bonanza senator Fair of Nevada. Just In front of Senator Blair was tne seat of the love-stricken Jonesof Florida , which has now been assigned to a senator very pooular with the ladies J. C. S. Black burn , of Kentucky.

CimsiNG TIIK CiVl'ITAMSTS. The Dentil oT Nccbo'H Wlfo Cuiisoa Anarchist Demonstrations. CHICAGO , March S. There was a remarka ble scene this afternoon at tlio bier of the dead wife of Anarchist Neebo. While the room was lllle.l with sympathisers of both sexes a blonde little woman bent over the coffin and burst Into loud lamentations and , with clapped hands and streaming eyes , she shrieked : "They murdered her ; she was murdered by those hangmen. Grln- nell nnd Gary were her executioners ; she In her eollln , her husband In jail both victims of the capitalistic blood- noundi. " The people present became highly wrought up. and during the remainder of the dav In the dnath chamber there was no ces sation of tlio curses against "those hang men. " Before evening a cony of the Arbolter Xeltung arrived contalnlne an article declaring that Mrs. Xeebo had died from a broken heait eatiscd by the convicting of her hu band. Tlio article concluded as follows : "Sho and our friend Os-carXecbc are victims of a capitalistic band of conspirators known as the cltizonsassoeia- tlon and of their tools Grlnncll & Gary. They , in conjunction with an odious , lying press , tlinn serving enemies of the people , nave murdered a bravo woman and made children not of ago orphans. They will reap the curse of the present and contempt of coming generations. " The sidewalk In front ot Xeebe's house was crowded with excited people. A committee had been formed to make arrangements for the funeral and they decided fo postpone It if possible , until Sun day , and make It the occasion of a socialistic demonstration. Nppfoc Can Attend. CHICAGO , March 8. Oscar Necbe. the an archist , will be permitted to attend the fu neral of his wife , who died from apoplexy yesterday. Sheriff Watson wrote a letter to ono of Ineebo's friends making Mich request , in which ho says : "In reply to your letter 1 beg to say that I can see no objection to Neebo attending the funeral of his wife , and I will bend an ollicer witli him for that pur pose if the friends will notify um when the funeral will take place. It seems to mo that , under the circumstances , every ono oueht to sympathize with him in his bereave ment. 1 most certainly do. " CAP3TAL PRIZE , $150,000.
