MORE EVIDENCE OF MURDER
HcDanieli' Home at Macedonia is Searched
by the Oflhen.
PRISONERS' STORY SEEMS IMPOSSIBLE
Indications Point to (onrlsilon That
Deceased Was Tut In Throat
After Hnnnlnar Oat of
the llaase.
County Attorney Klllpack was advised
yesterday of the discovery of further evi
dence against Mra. Barney McDanlels and
Bert Llvlx. charged with the murder of the
woman' husband, Barney McDanlels. A
second and more thorough search of the
house occupied by the McDanlels on the
farm near Macedonia resulted in the discov
ery, not only of blood-stained garments be
longing to Mrs. McDanlels and Llvlx, but
of - a large butcher knife, bearing fresh
blood atalns, and a hammer. .
The dlacovery of the blood-atained butcher
knife and hammer la claimed by the au
thorities to contradict the story of the pris
oners that McDanlels cut his throat with
a raior belonging to Llvlx. This raxor waa
kept In a small drawer In the top of an
old-fashioned bureau which ' was kept
locked. The top of the drawer was found
broken off and Llvlx and Mrs. McDanlels
claimed that McDanlels must have kicked
It off. This la regarded by the authorities
aa Improbable because when McDanlels ran
from the house with his throat cut he waa
In his- iare feet. After the hammer was
discovered It was found that It exactly fit
ted into the tndentationa on the portion of
the bureau top which had been forced off.
The articles found in the search of the
house were taken charge of by the local
authorities at Maeedonla, and placed In
the vault of one of the banks awaiting in
struction from the county attorney.
McDanlels' throat wa gashed in two sep
arate places, and It Is said that the nature
of the wounds preclude them having been
self-inflicted. The carotid artery waa found
to have been completely aevered, and If this
bad been the case before McDanlels rushed
out of the house there would hsve been,
it la said, greater evidences of blood about
the premises. McDanlels la known to bave
cried out after be ran from the. house, and
this, physicians aay, wquld have been im
possible had hla windpipe been cut before
be ran out of the house. The theory of
the authorities Is that McDanlels' throat
waa cut the second time by some one after
he ran from the house and was lying on the
roadside.
The prisoners have secured the services
of Attorney Lew Oenung, and he notified
County Attorney Klllpack yesterday that
he Intended applying to the court for an
order specially convening a grand Jury in
.orders that .If Indicted hla cllenta might
have their trial without delay. This4 will
It Is understood be opposed by the county
attorney, ho will demand that the case
be brought before the grand Jury at Its
regular aeaslon In April, aa In the mean
time additional evidence may be secured.

REJECT THE DITCH PROPOSAL
Connty Board Decides .That the
Proper Steps Have Not
Been Taken. I
After a conference with the Harrison
eounty authorities lasting the greater part
of yesterday' session the Board of County
Supervisors decided to reject the petition
for the drainage ditches in Rockford town
ship, which were to form part of the drain
age aystem planned by Harrison county.
Thla action waa the result of County At
torney Klllpack advising the aupervlaors
that the proper procedure would be for Har
rlaon and Pottawattamie counties to unite
in the formation o! a drainage district for
the Joint construction of the proposed
waterway. A Joint petition by the persons
interested in both counties will have to be
secured and aubmltted to the board. Un
less the board decides to hold i special
session before then no action will be taken
In the matter until the' regular meeting in
April.
According to the plsn proposed the . ex
pense of constructing the ditches in Pot
tawattamie county. Including the amount of
damage claimed by owner of land through
which tbo waterway a were to be made,
would have amounted to about $70,000. In j
order to carry off the water from Harrison '
county the portions of the ditches In Pot la.
wattamle county would have to be consid
erably more extensive than those In Harri
son county. 1'hls would Increase the ex
pense cf the work in this county and the
board dscldsd. that It would be unfair to
require the. farmers benefited in this county
to pay a larger proportion than th Harrl
son eounty people. By forming a Joint
drainage district the entire coat of th
work can be equally assessed In both coun
ties. Those present at the conference from
Harrison county were: A. J. Gllmor of
Missouri Valley. J. 8. Hall of Woodbine, j
W. 8. Kelly of Mondamln. members of the I
County Board of Supervisors: B. K. Huff
of Logan, county auditor; J. C. McCabe of
Logan, county aurveyor; Lloyd Falcon of
Logan, county attorney, and Attorneys Carl
Belter and Thomas Arthur of Logan.

calf of the local team, while Principal Mar
shall and Messrs. Coe and Keeling had
rooma reserved for them at the Grand hotel.
Word wa received yeaterday that a good
sized delegation would be here Friday aft
ernoon from Sioux City. In the delegation
will be several membsrs of th high school
faculty.
Up to last night efforts to secure the
third Judge for the debate had not met
with any great success. Principal Ensign
hopes, however, that thla matter will be
aettled thla morning. The two Judgea who
have been selected are Hon. L. O. Klnne of

of Control, and Prof. C. H. Gordon, super
intendent of the city schools of Lincoln,
Neb.
The visiting debaters and their friends

That the United States Is Nut Justified In
Retaining Permanent Possession of the
Philippine Islands." Council Bluffs has the
negative, and Sioux City the affirmative.
Victor E. Bender will preside.
After Firemen's Tournament.
There Is a possibility of Coutell Bluff
entertaining the annual meeting f the
Iowa State Firemen's association this sum
mer. Sioux City had been selected as ttao
place for the meeting, but It is said the
fact that it has scheduled a carnival for
the first reek In July will prevent It en
tertaining the firemen, and the .executive
committee of the asoclatlon Is now look
ing about for another meeting place.
The directory of the Commercial club has
taken the matter up, and yesterday a com
mittee conferred with the officers of the
Omaha and Council Bluffs Street Railway
company. Much will depend on the assist
ance offered by the atreet railway company,
and thla probably will be decided today.
The firemen's tournament would. It la ex
pected, attract several thousand visitors
to the city, as excursions would be run
Into the city during the three days from
surrounding towns. In the event of the
mtetlns being secured for Council Bluffs,
It Is probable that the racing events and
other featurea of the tournament would be
pulled off at Lake Manawa. ,

and Crandall has been released from the
Jail at Adel where he served his time.
It was also supposed that Crandall was
out on parole and could be sent back to
the penitentiary on an old charge, but

of the men who shot Pattee.
