The grand Jury In the United States dis
trict court made lis final report yester
day afternoon and waa discharged. Indict
ments were returned against Frederick
King, an alleged Itinerant bootlegger, who
la said to have Council Bluffs as his head
quarters, and against Wendell M. Porter,
a colored youth, who waa charged with
raising a postoffice monpy order. Both
entered pleas of guilty and were sentenced
by Judge McPherson. King was sentenced
to serve thirteen months in the federal
prison at Fort Leavenworth. As the court
had previously been lenient In dealing with
violators of the liquor laws, King waa
taken by surprise when Judge McPherson
pronounced a sentence of thirteen month,
I would not have pleaded guilty If I had
known you were going to sentence me to
the penitentiary," remarked King after the
court had passed sentence.
"Well, you know It now," replied Judge
McPherson.
It developed that King had been travel
ing out of Council Bluffs with a valise
filled with wet goods, which he disposed
of among a regular Una of customsrs In
the surrounding towns where saloon are
conspicuous by their absence. He was ar
rested In Red Oak and the particular of
fense with which he waa charged was com
mitted In November of last year.
In passing Sentence the court ssld: "We
do not like the kind of cases In this court
where the principals are bootleggers and
a disreputable class follows as witnesses.
This court has other business of a higher
character to attend to. I'm going to stop
some of this If I can and If you are given
a good sentence It Is likely that some of
the others in the same business will hear of
It with good results. I will sentence you to
thirteen months' Imprisonment at Fort
Leavenworth." .
Young Porter, the negro lad charged with
raising a money order, was sentenced to
pay a fine of 1500, but as he has not the
money to pay It, will board it out In the
county Jail at Indlanola. Porter was at
tending the Highland Park Business col
lege la Dcs Moines when he was taken ill.
His father, who Uvea in Oklahoma, sent
him a postoffice money order for $2, which
the lad raised to $5. The alteration was
easily detected and the lad was arrested.
N Arguments In the Cut-Off land cases were
completed yesterday afternoon, but as the
questions Involved In the five suits are most
Intricate, it la not expected that Judge Mc
Pherson will band down his decision for
some time.
Trial of the civil Jury cases will be be
gun this morning. The first case on the
docket la that of Samuel Dobson, adminis
trator of the estate, of Daniel James,
against the street railway company. The
suit Is to recover damages for the death
of James, who was struck and killed by a
Fifth avenue car on its way to the barn at
night. The accident occurred at Sixteenth
street and Avenue A.
Too Free with Firearms.'""
A the result of numerous complaints of
reckless and promiscuous shooting in that
Immediate vicinity, the day police force In
a body swooped down early yesterday
morning on the camp of Greek railroad
laborers near ( the tracks of the Illinois
Central at Avenue B. John Baros, Paul
Cocoltrls, Nick Pavta and Frank Koopls,
the only men found about the place, were
taken into custody. The police also secured
three shot guns and two revolvers. The
men arrested denied that they had done
any shooting and claimed to be guest of
the gang of Greek section hands owning
the camp.
In police court Judge Snyder continued
the cases against the four men for thirty
days and allowed them their liberty on
their own recognisances. The men were
profuse In their thanks to the court and
although they had denied doing any shoot
ing promised Judg Snyder they would not
offend again. The complaints came from
resident in the neighborhood of tho ca.np,
who claimed to hare been disturbed at all
hour of the day and night by the firing
of gun and revolver. When the police
reached the camp yesterday all of the
occupant with the exception of the four
men taken Into custody had gone to their
day's work.

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES. March IS. (Special.)
Iowa banks and trust companies, not In
eluding national banks, show fin increase
of S9.1S1.010 in deposit over the reports
made by th bank to the state auditor
on January 2S. 1807. In view of the large
withdrawal from the bank during the
early part of thl year and following th
panlo of last fall, Mr. Roberts, chief clerk
in th banking department of the tat
auditor' office, consider th showing
very good.
The tate auditor's office today gav out
for publication the consolidated statement
of th state and avlng banks and trust
companle showing the condition of theae
banks at the close of business February
14, 1908. Th statement show a de
crease In deposit since -the ast report
on December S of S519.873. but it i be
lieved that this is due largely to th fact
that th first of the year is a tlm for
meeting obligations And the money ha
not gotten back into th banks yet. Th
undivided nrnflta show a decrease of
S645.690, which is about the amount of
decrease always shown on the first re
port of the year, due to th fact that
dividends and profits ar paid then. .
Considerable consolation Is taken In the
fact that th surplus in the banks shows
an increase of S223.S99. There has been a
net Incres of forty-two In the numbor
of banks since January 26, 1907. There
ha been an Increase of 48,747 In the
amount of gold coin on hand, a decrease
of S8.284 In the sliver, a decrease of $525,
868 in the amount of legal tender and sn
Increase of $7, 285,63a In the amount of
credits subject to sight draft.
Of greater - Importance than any other
feature of the report, however, i the
fact that the reserve in the banks has
Increased from 18.6 per cent on December
8 to 21.S per' cent on February 14, show
ing that the bankers are arranging not to
allow their reserve to run so low a they
did Just before the panic.
N Anarchists Itere.
Dr. Ralph Dent Converse, United States
agent, has completed en Inspection of the
Jails, hospitals snd penal institutions of
Iowa, and Js unable to find a single anarch
ist In Iowa. He Is chiefly concerned in
finding the Indigent foreigners, who have
not lived here the three-year limit and arc
subject to deportation. Dr. Converse, after
visiting tho Girls' Industrial school at Mlt
chellvllle, said: "Without exception It Is
th greatest Institution of Its kind I have
ver seen. Superintendent Fitzgerald is do
ing a wonderful work there, and has our
astern reformatories outdistanced." He
stated further that the Immigration and
anarchist problem is not giving the welt
any trouble to speak of in comparison with
what it is in the east. J
Dennlsou Wins Fight.
John V. Dennlson of Dubuque Won his
fight on behalf of th endorsement of Mrs.
Mary Fay Hawes of RocK Island for su
preme oracle of the Royal Neighbors. Mrs,
Hawes was endorsed along with Mrs. Anna
M. Bair for supreme oracle, and Dr. Susan
Snyder of Council Bluff for supreme phy
sician. AH the candidates endorsed were
friends of Mr. Dennlson. Mr. Dennlson
came here at the beginning of the conven
tion and established headquarters. He had
no .vote In the convention, but he did a vast
amount of political work for his friends.
The fight In the convention was a lively
one. Mrs. Laura Byram, the Des Moines
candidate for supreme orticle, gave Mrs.
Bair a very close race. Mrs. Kirkland of
Council Bluffs was elected state oracle,
Mrs. Henney of Dubuque vice oracle, and
Mr. Meredith state recorder.

In March, 1899, Ceo. L. Hall, of Birmingham, Ala., together with his wife,
went to visit hl married sister, Mr. William Bmlth. of AlberUville, Ala. When
they arrived et tho house they found his Uter tour week-old daushter dan
gerously ill with what the family phytclan pronounced la grippe. Tho doctor
who wai treating the child said It could not live over night, said he was doing
all he could do, and there was no chance of saving the baby. He was giving
castor oil one hour and yrup of Ipecac the next. I knew that Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy contained all the ipecac that the child needed, and from exper
ience with it in my own family with my children, I believed that the other in
gredients In it were better for the baby if It had la grippe, than oil, so 1 took
the responsibility of giving the baby Chamberlain's Cough Remedy every twen
ty minute for two hours, then every forty to lity minute for tha remainder
of the night. Before morning-the improvement was easily perceptible. In three
or four days the baby was well. She is now about nln years old, a fine girl,
snd her parents are everlasting believers lu Chamberlain's Couh Remedy.
