TO BE ARRESTED AS VAGRANTS IN FUTURE
Coaaty Board Rejects Claims for Dam
ages Arising; Oat ( Accidents
I Bridges Claimed to Bo
Defectlrs).
Chronic Inebriates or dipsomaniacs who
after being committed to the stats hospital
at Mount Pleasant make their escape will
not be returned tp the Institution at the ex
pense of Pottawattamie county. This was
decided upon at yesterday's session of the
board of supervisors when the following
resolution drawn up by County Attorney
Klllpack was unanimously adopted:
Be It resolved. That In all esses where
persons are committed to the hospitals na
inebriates
not pay t
nebriates or dipsomaniacs the county will
not pay ine dims tor expenses lor tne re
turn of any such persons after they have
once escaped from the hospital to which
uiey nave bean committed.
The question cams before the board In
the consideration of the claim submitted
by Sheriff Cousins for expenses In crim
inal cases. Included In the claim wero
several Items of expense Incurred In re
turning escaped dipsomaniacs to the Mount
Pleasant hospital. The expenses Incurred
In this respect aggregated over $130. The
claim was allowed but the sheriff was given
to understand that henceforth the county
would not be responsible for such expeme
unless the person so returned was taken
back on a regular commitment from a
Judge the district court In which case the
county would have no option but to foot
the bill,
Bines the dlpsomanlao law went Into
effect It has been the custom for the
sheriff to return to Mount Pleasant such
persons as escaped under the original com
mitment without securing a new order
from the court
Several of the supervisors were In favor
of refusing to pay the expenses of com
mitment of any person to Mount Pleasant
until such time as the authorities at the
hospital provided means to prevent the es
cape of those committed to their charge.
With but few exceptions every chronic In
ebriate committed from Pottawattamie
county to Mount Pleasant has made his es
cape and soma of them have been re
turned two and three times, only to escape
again. The county attorney advised the
board that It was compelled to pay the ex
penses of transporting any person com
mitted under order of court to Mount
Pleasant the same as It had to pay ths
sxpenss of conveying a convicted person to
the penitentiary.
To Bo Chars;. with Vagraaey,
The board recommended that the sheriff
in future arrest escaped dipsomaniacs and
take them before tha court on charges
under the state vagrancy law. This, Deputy
Sheriff Groneweg explained to th super
visors, had been tho course recently
adopted.
Sheriff Cousins' bills allowed yesterday
were as follows: Fees In criminal cases,
1300.20; expenses In criminal cases, $437. M;

number of women Of De Moines are In a
predicament owing to the aggressiveness
of a corporation la Bt Louis engaged In
working some sort of a schema In connec

barrassment Is following th promotion of
the scheme. Most of the mayors of cities

every kind in connection with the Iowa
building and all schemes have been op
posed by them.
