A Courier reporter called on Mr. III.
d. Hanson last night, AT the ST. George
Hotel. as TO the decision OF Judge Drum
!mond. in the lake Erie. Evansville s.
Southwestern railroad litigation. Mr..
Hanson stated there was little TO be said
about the matter other than that motion
Twas made Tuesday morning for . con-
|firmation of the sale Of the road which
took place, il will be remembered. two
Years ago. The Judge confirmed the
sale in an extended article.
The effect Of the decision, 50 far as IL
concerns Ellery. Paitiscn and Hsnson's
claims, will be 10 place them on an equal
footing. Hanson Is simply agent OF the
bondholders. having bought the road for

are held by the Merchants National bank

teresied that all other outstanding bonds
|of the road, BY whomsoever held. are
illegal and void. Such bonds are held
|by individuals that compose the con-
struction company-Messrs. Ellery. Ham
son. Mason. Pattison and Decker. If
this statement is true, and IL i probable
that its truth can only be established by
IA litigation in the courts, the effect Of the
sale upon Messrs. EIlery, Hanson. Patti
son & 90. would be TO shut them out
entirely. II does not appear that tho
decision Of Judge Drummond relieves

pect being fair for q still further contest
in the courts, with view to establish BY
judicial decree just how many Of the
bonds outstanding are legal and how
many are illegal. Evansville Courier.

LOST HIS FOOT.

Coleman King Run Over by Switch En-
CINE and Has to Have His Foot Ampu-
tated.
serious accident happened in the yards of
the St. Fsai & Manitoba railroad yesterday
morning about IL o'clock. Coleman King,
employed by the company as car or check
clerk, was run down by engine No. 81 and had
his right foot badly crushed. At the time The
accident occurred King was engaged in count
ing the cars of the Sioux City transfer train,
and didn't observe the approach of the switch
engine in time to escape. So soon as the injury
happened King was taken to the freight house
of the St. Paul & Minneapolis company, and
Drs. Murphy and Hagan were summoned to
attend him. They found his right foot crushed
to pulp. and his ankle joint badly fractured.
He was conveyed to his home, No. SO Valley
street, and there at 2 o'clock the foot was am
putated. King has been an employe of the
railroad company for ten years and is a valua-
BILE man. Under the circumstances it is hard
to fix the blame for the accident, though from
the dumb ignorance OF the whole affair evinced
by the railroad employees in the freight Office
when the GLOBE made inquiries, it must be
that they feel that there is serious blame some
where. These dumb creatures knew nothing
of the affair though King was brought to their
Office and his blood stained the floor. Dis
erection is sometimes cursed nonsense.

GORED BY A BULL.
Hon. @. III. Ch0dboMrne the Vtctine of a
Blooded Bulls Rage.
lSharhnrne, County Star.I

Hon. q. HI. ChGdb0Nrne the Ttcttn1 or q
Blooded BMlLs Rage.
Sherburne County Star.
On Saturday morning last, news reached this vii
lage that Hon. @. II. Ohadbourne of the town of
Baldwin, this county had been gored by his blooded
bull, and was not expected to live. The particulars
of the frightful accident as we learn them second
hand from Mr.. Chadbournes own lips, are as TO-
lows: The bull is thoroughbred animal, and at
times very ferocious. His stall is next to the side of
the barn. and he had knocked hole in the side say
two or three feet square. The animal was fastened
by one rope leading from ring in his nose to a
beam beyond the manger, and another rope around
and on Friday evening last Mr.. Chadbourne entered
the stall the left side of the bull for the purpose
of tightening the rope, AS he approached the BULLS
head and was about to unfasten 1t, the animal
stepped back as far the rope would let him. and
quick as flash lowered his head and made lunge
at Mr.. c., catching him on the point OF his horn,
which was almost as sharp as sword. The horn
broke two OF the unfortunate mans rlDs and enter
ed his lung. Mr.. @. was placed in such position
that he could scarcely move, but in some way, the
exact particulars of which are immaterial, he man.
aged to get his head pointed to the hole in the side
of the barn before spoken of, and as the bull made
another lunge he exerted all his strength and pulled
himself off the beasts horn and through the hole In
the side of the barn, where he was found by MEM
bers of the family.
OF course physicians we're at once summoned from
for the sufferer was to press out the broken ribs
from the lung and sew up the wound. The horn
went into his side all of six inches and although it
is not necessarily fatal wound the chances for his
recovery at this writing are not considered very
good.

THERE is not business man or tax payer
in the city who does not know that it is i'm
portant to keep Aid. Griggs and Rhodes in
the city council. 1t is only occasionally that
men of their stamp have been found who are
willing to serve in the city council, and it is
positively shameful that there should be even
such feeble opposition to their reelection as
has been developed. During the past few
years the council has been transformed, and
if the good work is to continue it behooves
those interested in the welfare of the city to
retain the good members as long as they can
be induced to remain. Not word
can be urged against Messrs. Griggs and
Rhodes either personally or officially and
their majority tomorrow should be made so
great that our best citizens can feel, if they
are persuaded to sacrifice their own inter-
ests and comfort to serve the public, that
they will be cordially sustained.
