COURT QUESTIONS WITNESSES
Attorney for Ratter Strenuously Ob
jects to the Proceedings Hearts
Mot Completed at Hoar of
RTesisg Adjournment.
Judge Thomell did not reach the city
until yesterdsy afternoon late, so was un
able to complete the hearing on the motion
of H. V. Battey to quash the Indictment
returned against him on the charge of em
bexsllng county funds while serving as
clerk of the district court, on tha alleged
grounds that the grand Jury had been
coerced Into returning the Indictment after
It had i-oted to report a no bill. The hear
ing will be resumed this morning by Judge
Thomell, although the January term closed
yesterday afternoon and the March term
will open this morning with Judge O. D.
Wheeler on tha bench.
Four of the members of the grand Jury
which returned the Indictment against Bat
tey on February 20 were examined yester
day afternoon. Their testimony was some
what conflicting. Juror Schrerbrock testi
fied that when County Attorney Hess ap
peared before the grand jury at the time
complained of he seemed to be "angry" and
insisted that an Indictment should be re
turned against Battey. On the other hand.
Juror Chambers testified that Mr. Hess did
nothing of the kind and that when ha ap
peared before the Jury he merely explained
to It some of the matters In connection
with the case.
The hearing yesterdsy afternoon de
veloped the fact that the county attorney
appeared before the grand Jury at tha sug
gestion of the oourL s
Counsel for Mr. Battey laid special stress
on the fact that the records of the proceed
ings of the grand Jury show that on Feb
ruary 19 that body voted no bills In the
two cases against his client and that on
February 20, after reconsidering Its action,
It returned an Indictment on tha embeszle
ment charge only.
Objection to Action of Coart.
During the progress of the hearing coun
sel for Battey objected to Judge Thomell
Interrogating the witnesses, .contending
that the court did not represent the county
and waa not there as counsel for either
side.
The following are the members of the
grand Jury which will be Impaneled today
by Judge Wheeler:
P. H. Moran, Kane; William Huss, Silver
Creek; F. Ostertag, Rockford; C. L. Prouty,
Garner; William Casson, York; O. B. Mc
Brlde, Boomer; George W. Jensen, Nor
walk; H. J. Schrerbrock, Neola; A. K.
Chambers, Hardin; B. F. Kock, Mlnden;
H. C. Jenkins, Lewis, and J. Wilding,

It Is expected that the grand Jury will be
called upon to devote considerable time to
Investigating charges against Maybray and
his alleged gang of swindlers. A number of
the victims of the gang arc expected here
to appear before the grand Jury.
Judge Wheeler yesterday morning Issued
temporary restraining orders In the suits
brought by J. H. Cupp against F. J. West

With tha settlement out cf court yester
day of the ault of Joseph Swain, adminis
trator of the estate of Gladys Chapman
against the Standard Oil company and
other there was nothing left for the federal
petit Jury to try so Judgo Smith McPher
son dismissed It for the term.
In this suit, which was known aa the
Plsgah Oil company, dainaues In the sum
of $60,000 were asked from the Standard
Oil company for tha deaths of Mrs. Chap
man and her three children, who were
burned to death at their home as the re
sult of the explosion of what was supposed
to be kerosene, but which. It waa alleged,
proved to have been gasoline. It Is under
stood that the case was settled for $8,000,
Most of the court officials left frr their
home last evening, but Judge McPlierson
said ha expected to remain here until
Thursday, as there were a number of minor
court matters, which would demand his at
tention. It was stated that J. C. Maybray. alleged
head of the "swindling syndicate," against
whom two Indictments were returned on
charges of using the malls to defraud In
connection with the buncoing of Samuel
But or of Case Lake, Minn., who contributed

Coronir Treynor announced yesterday
that he would not hold any Inquest over
George Moore, who committed suicide
Sunday night by shooting himself at the
Metropolitan hotel, where, until recently,
he bad been employed aa night cook.
The police so far have been able to learn
but little about the dead man. Robert
Kelley, a railroad swltchmsn, who boards
at the Metropolitan hotel, told the polioe
that he had known the dead man In
139" in Huntington, Pa., and that he be
lieved his right name waa McDonahue.
Kelley said that he believed Moor or Mc
Donahue had been confined in the reforma
tory at Huntington, but for what he did
not know.
At the Metropolitan hotel It was said
that Moore's right name was MarUn. The
body Is at Cutler's undertaking roosna and
If not claimed by relatives In a few day
will probably be buried at the expense of

find anything among the man's effects
which would give a clue to his Identity.

Paases House.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES, March l.-(Bpeclal.) The
senate today took a turn of showing; tem
perance sentiment, and put up to the house
a series cf bills which will test the sin
cerity of the house pretensions of being
the only prohibition body of the legislature.
The senate passed three bills, which, to
gether will make the following restrictions
on the saloon buslnss:
Only one saloon to each 1,000 of popula
tion of a city.
No saloon owned by anyone other than
a qualified elector.
No saloon within n0 feet of a public
library, as well as school or church.
No lunches served In saloons, free o
otherwise.
No brewery or distillery company to have
anv interest whatever In a saloon.
No person who has been permanently
enjoined from liquor sales to operate sa
loon within five years.
These restrictions are embodied in bills
which were in fact prepared In the com
mittee on suppression of Intemperance.
Efforts were made to defest or amend
them, but to no avail, as the senate was
determined they should all be passed sub
stantially as reported.
The senate also passed a house bill which
fixes the time for commencement cf terms
of office on the second day of the year, and
a bill permitting payment from trust funds
for cost of bonds of executors.
Ts Fight the Swine Plague.
The house passed an appropriation for
W.OOO for the eatsbllshment st Des Moines
of a laboratory for the making of serum
for the cure of hog chplera.
The house also passed a bill giving six
months In which to file complaints against
telegraph companies for neglect to de
liver messsges.
The house pasaed a bill to permit the
trial of a man for murder though he be In

well known arguments In favor of such
methods by the senator from Ottumwa.
There Is no sentiment In the leglslsture for
a radical change In the primary election
