Rev. Guy .F. Phelps told his story to
judge Cleland and a roomful of inter

inter is seeking to recover the custody of
his daughter, aced 20 months, from Mrs.
Anna Anderson, the child's aunt, living
at 78 Madison street. . : v
In his testimony Rev. Phelps this
morning stated that he had never de
sired : to allow the child to go to her
aunt and that, It was understood that he

asked for .the baby five times peaceably
berore invoking the law-and thia latter
course was only taken when . there was
no other remedy left open to me.' -"I
have 'no desire to wrong Mrs. An
derson or her husband, and am only
acting in good faith and with a good
conscience. I feel that it ia my duty to
my baby, and I have many reasons for
this view."

should receive the child whenever he
asked for her. He stated that after
writing a letter on January 7 asking for
me enna, he met Mr. Anderson who did
not give him reason to believe the child
would not be given up and that the next
day he. saw Mrs. Anderson and after
falling to get any satisfaction out of
her he wrote that he must have his child.
"Did you say that you would have
the child dead or alive?'' asked Attor
ney Flegel for the defense.
I did,", replied Mr. Phelps, "but : I
meant by that no threat When the
first letter of mine asking for the child
was written I was told that Mrs.-An
derson was prostrated, and later that
she was irresponsible and that it was
feared she would take both the baby's
life and her own.; I meant that Z would
either receive the child safe and sound
or that I would get its body when she
was through; that Is what I meant." '
The Andersons allege that Rev. Mr.
Phelps Is not always mentally ' sound
and that he is subject to irrational
spells that unfit him for work and make
him an unsafe person for the care of
his child.: ,4.
Mr. Phelps is an Evangelical minister
at HUlsboro, where he has preached for
three years. Judge Clelland took the
case under advisement '
"Mrs. Anderson accused me of being
insane and I thank her very much."
says Rev. Guy F. Phelps of HUlsboro,
"for on Sunday night I -had the largest
congregation that ever heard one of my
sermons. They came simply to see the
'crasy preacher.' I would recommend
to my fellow ministers that they get ac
cused of the same thing and they will
surely have a crowd to hear their "er
mons." ' ' '
Mr. Phelps Is very indignant that his
motives for gaining the possession of
his little daughter Anneatta Naomi
should be so wrongfully construed. . "I
love the little girl very much," he said,
"and I Intend to have her baok.
"Mrs. Anderson took tlte baby from
me under the expressed agreement that
she should keep It so long as It was
satisfactory to me and no longer, I
was. to pay all the child's actual ex
penses, such as doctor bills; bills for its
food and for clothing.
-"On several different occasions I re
fused to allow them to adopt the .child,
and told them that I Intended to re
main in perfect and absolute control, of
her. V ' ; ' '
"In regard to the statement ; that I
would take the child dead or alive, I will
say this. More than half a dosen peo
ple told me they feared that if I in
sisted, on taking the baby Mrs. Ander
son would kill the baby and herself,
and that is what I meant when I said
that' If I found the baby dead I would
take her Just the same.
"Upon, a simple . request of mine to
take the child for a visit Mrs. Anderson
was . said ' to, have fainted; and she
made a. vigorous call upon me over the
telephone saying, that she .was pros
tratefl. Even the same day she sent a
delegation to ry to beat down my de
sira .to. hava the Infant " . .
!'I want tO' positively deny the! state
ment that the child was to remain with
Mrs.' 'Anderson as long as she lived; that
Mrs. Anderson - was, not . prepared , to
send the baby to the place as appointed
between us, as reported but on Satur
day 'morning, January '9, three and; one-
half hours before the time to deliver the
child at the appointed place, she -took
her and -left home suddenly, taking 'her
to Peninsula, and I .have . not seen, the
child from- that day to the day' that I
saw her In the courtroom on January It.

Anether warm seise In the ' liquor
license fight is In prospect for the city
council. - The' proposition of allowing
the saloons to remain open all night
upon payment of a double license, or an
additional 3400, -was sprung yesterday
In the form of an ordinance Introduced
by Councilman Merrill, but there seems
to be little hope that the measure will
pass, and it was a great surprise that
the question was raised again, especially
as It did not come from a member of
the liquor license committee.
There may be three,, or-possibly four,
votes for the ordinance "in the council,
but even If it should receive a majority
from that body It Is a certainty that
Mayor Williams would veto the measure
the instant': It came for his approval.
The mayor, according to those who pro
fess to understand his policy, has not
changed his attitude on , the . saloon
question, and . the introduction of the
ordinance is looked upon largely in the
nature of a 'political move at the pres
ent time.'--''- -V v---.. -V
The liquor license committee will not
vote for any further change In the li
cense statutes unless It should be in the
nature of a compromise measure, in
cluding side-entrances, etc.. : a'nd this
is extremely unlikely. The statement
had been made that , ' Mayor Williams
would not veto , the "all-night" pro
viso, but he stated yesterday that his
opinions had not been changed. . 'No
one has been to see me on the subject,"
he explained, "and. I did not even knrw
that the question would be brought ur
again." . :-:-- ,: - ,,..,,;.-,
The second feature of Interest during
ths session yesterday, was the report
of the special commission appointed to
investigate the theatres, a copy . of
which was published by The Journal
yesterday. All the local theatre man
agers were present But very little dis
cussion followed when the reading was
finished, and the report was adopted.
Mr.' Flegel thought ordinances should
be passed which would Insure the rec
ommendations of the committee being
carried out, out Mr. Bently stated that
they would make another round of In
spection In the near future and were in
position to enforce whatever addi
tional regulations the commission
thought fit The report of this com
mittee, published, yesterday,, specified
the changes which, were thought neces
sary to Insure a maximum degree of
safety. '; ; 1 ':';' :":. ' y ' ''".;..-
