NEW YORK, March 81.
The stock market to-day was weak and declining
and late in the day heavy drive at the Gould spe
cialtes broke the list leaving prices materially
lower at the close. The great feature of the day
was the renewed weakness of Missouri Pacific, which
declined per cent Next to it Western Union, Pa
cifc Mail, Texas Pacific and Manhattan showed the
largest net declines Outside of the Gould proper
ties New England was prominent for its weakness,
and stocks hitherto well supported shared in the

Fem.
The case of Mrs. Mary Cooper of Derby vs..
DR.. Phillips was continued yesterday. The
plaintiff sues to recover $4,000 damages on
the ground that the doctor treated her for
rheumatism when she really had broken
thigh Attorneys Alling and Curtis appear
for the plaintiff and Attorneys Williams and
eager for the defendant, who puts in gem
eral denial. The case is causing considerable
interest, as DIR. Phillips is physician of
twenty years. standing in Derby. The case
has been running for four years. The plain
tiff was on the stand yesterday and so was
Dr. Francis Bacon. He said: 81 examined
the limb and found that it was helpless and
incapable of voluntary motion. There was a
very sharp grating. 1 did not deem an oper-
alton advisable. The age of the patient and
her long confinement were all conditions
against it. The operation was to cut down
to the bones and lay them bare. At that time
considered that the case was beyond the
power of any bone setter" DR.. Bacon then
went on to state how nature aid its work and
then told the court how fractures were de-
terminsd. According to ths testimony Of
Mrs. Cooper and her son, DIR. Phillips took
none of tbs precautions that were laid down

WASHINGTON, April 12.-The inter-
state commerce commission during the
month of March entered upon some
what extensive investigation of the mat
ter of underbilling. The testimony was
taken at Chicago, Omaha, Lincoln, De-
troit, Buffalo, Washington, and other
points; number of witnesses were ex-
amined, and many statistics accumula-
ted. AS result of the examination
the commission announces that it con-
ours with the various boards of trade
and commercial bodies from the larger
cities of the country, which have re-
quested the amendment of the law by
imposing small penalty upon shippers
who by false billing, false classification,
false weighing or false report of weight,
or by other devices, knowingly and will
fully obtain transportation for their
property at less than the regular rates.

LA CROSSE, Wis, April 12.-The river

from the lowest point of last season is

afternoon. Mcdonald Bros sent two
boats up. They are now busy with
large crews picking logs up. 1t is diff
cult work on account of the ice, but
boats are following along, keeping the
logs, from scattering, and will save
nearly all of them. The ice is all out of

is not considered safe to open the boom.

the maximum height would be reached

for a subsidence OF the water. 1.-The

him. base my opinions OH the fact
that the ratio of increase of height is
decreasing, and furthermore from dis

leg had to be amputated, and severely
manning him otherwise. The case will

tim of the same accident and recently

WASHINGTON, April 12.-Senator
Turpie, of Indiana, delivered powerful
speech against the diSmemberment of
Dakota. He was listened to with rapt
attention by the entire senate, and re-
ceived congratulations of all his party
colleagues and also by Senator Davis for
his masterful presentation of the case.
He said many new and bright things
upon the subject, and his speech is the
best that has ever been delivered against
the proposed political rape Of the terri
tory. South Dakota, he said, was not
territory, it was not division OF the
territory, it was merely geographical
expression. He denied the right of the
people of territory to establish divis-
ion of it, and said that the people of the
whole Union had right to be heard as
to the policy and prOpriety of such di-
vision. He would as soon vote for the
division of state as for the division of
a territory under the circumstances, yet
the history of the country afforded but
enc example of the division of state.
There had been an expression of the
popular will at the convention held in
Aberdeen last December. The utter
aDces of that convention were clear and
emphatic, and showed that the people OF
! the whole territory
WE'RE AGAINST DIVISION
and desired an enabling act as provided
in the minority bill. 1t was not neces-
sary to take Dakota piecemeal, she
could be taken in as whole. All the
states admitted recently had been large
states. If Dakota was large, the Union
was also large. Dakota was not so large
in comparison with the area of the whole
country, as Virginia, New York or
Pennsylvania had been to the area of
the thirteen original states. Senator
Cull0m, the man who looks like Lincoln,
and lacks largely his ability, undertook
to;reply to Turpie, but made miser-
able failure of it. When he declared
that all Republicans were in favor
Of the division of Dakota and all Demo-
Gratis opposed, Senator Butler. of South
Carolina, asked him to- read the Record
on March 25, 1882, in which there ap-
pears to have been a protest filed against
division by Senator Hale, of Maine, who
is certainly Republican. 1t staggered
him, and Hale, who was present, did
not undertake to explain It, This
bombshell was evidently furnished by
Maj. Edwards, of Fargo. who has SO
frequently animadverted against the
Maine senator for the part played at
that time. Delegate Clifford was again
conspicuously absent, and Senator Platt
sat in cOmatOse condition during
Turpie's strong speech. The Dakota
contingent did not darken the galleries.
They love not truth when so elOquently
put. Gov. Ordway alone listened to ap-
prove.
