DCS MOIN'CS , April 4. ( Special to The
Dee. ) There Is Just now sonic speculation In
the minds of the members as to what they
did when they voted for the bill constituting
the commission to codify the laws of the
state. It Is shrewdly suspected that the
ardent champions of the move had In view
an end that was not wholly disclosed In the
context of the law. The bill provides for n
commission of flv * . which shall be legislature ,
Koveruor and supreme court nil In one. Two
of the five arc to bo chosen by the house ,
ono by the senate and tvvo by the supreme
court. Its members are to begin work not
later than the 1st of September next and arc
to receive $10 per day and actual expenses
while engaged In the work. The report Is to
be made to the Twenty-sixth general assem
bly , and two copies of the report are to be
furnished members-elect of the assembly.
Section 4 of the bill provides
"Suit ! eommlaslon shall carefully re\lse

Alleged Slajtrs of an Old Mini On Tilnl nt
CrcHtiin ,
CnnSTON , la , April 4. ( Special Telegram
to The Ilee. ) A Jury was empaneled In the
Goodalo murder trial this afternoon. Dell
Ualderson and Sam Kldd. Jhe men charged
with the crime , pleaded not guilty. The de
fense will endeavor to destroy the confessions
of Ualderson , In which he implicates Kldd , by
introducing testimony of his mental vveak-
nesis. They will also endeavor to piove that
Daldcrson Implicated himself In other crimes
In which It Is known he had no hand. The
trial will last several days.
The crime was one of the most brutal mur
ders In the unnals of the state's criminal
record It occurred at a small country farm
house near Afton , Q G. Goodale , the vic
tim , nn old man 72 > ears of age , lived alone
on a farm Ho was un agreeable old gentle
man and respected In the community Among
those who made call1) on Goodalo were
Ualderson and Kldd , the men charged with
the murder , The Impression prevailed In
the neighborhood that Mr Goodalo had con
siderable money secreted about the place ,
the story gaining credence from the fact that
the old gentleman had lost some money In
the Tingley bank failure , and that ho had
withdrawn his deposits from other banks. It
is evident these reports i cached the ears ot
Ilaldctson and Kldd and they decided to rob
the old gentleman In Ualderson's confes
sion , which ho afterward denied , he tells ot
the horrible crime as follows
"Sunday afternoon. January 21. 1S91 , Kdd !
came over to the home of Al llulderson ,
where 1 was stopping , and together wo went
to the Goodale notice Wo had not decided'
on the manner of getting rid of the old
man until wo reached the house , and then
Kldd told mo to hit the old man Ural , and ho
would finish him , nt the same time handing
mo a hatchet. When we entered the house
Goodalu was sitting nt thu table eating his
sup'Jcr Ho said 'Hello , bojs , ' and made
an effort to get up , when I struck him on
the head with the hatchet and he fell Kldd
then cut his throat with n pocket knife. I
( lion stepped out of the house while Kldd
rilled the old man's pockets. Ho got about
$100 In money out of an old leather pocketbook -
book , but did not give me any of It. He
promised to divide with me , but did not
After the murder wo left the house and
went to our homes. 1 am In my right mind
and know that 1 am under arrest for
murder "
Halderson has subsequently made several
varying statements concerning the crime ,
at times den ) Ing that he had any lund In
the affair Ills statement of the killing Is
thought to bo partially correct When
Qoodiile was found an examination proved
that he had founteen wounds on the head
and two on the neck Prom thU It It
evident that ho was struck repeatedly by the
murderers , whllo Ualderson claims to have
only struck him once.
