Many cattle die each year and many more
suffer from the want of plenty of water
Once day is as often as it is necessary for
cattle to drink in cold weather. but this they
should always have. If the watering place is
a cold and bleak spot the probability is that
a few master cows or steers will monopolize
the trough until they freeze out the rest of
the herd. In this way some of the under
lings are often without water for many days.

THE NEWHALL FIRE,
Evidence of the Chief Fire Engineer and
Several Firemen.

MILWAUKEE, Wis, Jan. 30.-The interest
in the Newhall House inquest. which began
to fiatten, was renewed to-day by the testi-
mony of various firemen.
Chief Leppert said the fremen and police
men did their duty in saving lives He con-
sidered the telegraph wires very much in the
way, but did not give orders to cut the wires
The department has no reel and horses for
FIRE escape. The f1remen often looked over
gency. If fire companies of the department
had not been atanother fire, more lives could
have been saved at the burning of the hotel.
The latter had not sufficient ire-escapes, in
the opinion of witness, but he added the
Newhall was not really as we'll provided with
escapes as any other hotel.
The testimony Of other firemen agreed in
the main points.
In the afternoon, David Rose, secretary of
the local board of underwriters, test ed that
he had examined the hotel shortly before the
ire, in regard to insurance rate and found
the hose on pegs instead of reels. The drying
room was extremely dangerous, and the
proprietors refusing to substitute wire for
wooden bars, he consequently addressed a
circular to the agents. advising them that the
rate should not be reduced. The Newhall
rate was hlgher than that OF any other hotel,
on account of its dangerous condition.
A. c. Cary, one of the oldest agents in the
city, said the hotel was extremely dangerous,
and he did not consider the risk good even at
the rate OF per cent
Several of the fremen testified to being
tinid in entering the building, because they
knew it was a fire trap.
The district attorney, in answer to ques-
ton of a juror, said that he had endeavored
to show that the fire was incendiary, but
that any positive evidence to that effect
would be taken advantage of by the other
side, and he could not present all the evil
dence in the possession Of the prosecution
without injury to the case against Scheller.
The juror disagreed, and wanted all the
evidence.
The District Attorney (replying)-If the
jury is not satisfied with the evidence that
the fire was incendiary, they would return
perforce verdict of accidental.

Corner Differences.

CHICAGO, Jan. 3O.-The motion to dissolve
the INDUCTION secured by Jno. B. Lyon
against the alleged manipulators of the
corner in January corn was argued to-day.
In the afternoon Lyons attorneys asked
and obtained leave to withdraw the suit,
and the case was ended without a decision
being reached whether or not the court
would make the Injunction perpetual under
such circumstances Lyons counsel being
asked the reason for Withdrawing the suit
said when the action was begun the price
of January corn was such that his clients
were liable to lose $4,000. Since then its
value has fallen to such an extent that they
could settle at profit of $4,000. Under
these circumstances they naturally had no
desire to press the suit and lose money.

SHELBYvILLE, Jan. 30-Shelby county can

Methodist minister for chaplain of the South
ern prison. We have two Methodist minis
ters residing near Lewis creek, who will GER

Hawkins once made the race in Washing

the Office, withdrew from the contest in dis

Rev. Prime is the minister at the church

for disturbing the assembly.
