ASHLAND, Wis, March l.-Evidence
Of a startling nature was given today by
j. c. Lennon in the Hurley bank rob
berry case. He said that two weeks before
Christmas E. d. Goodland came to him
with a proposition to make 81, 500 apiece,
saying that Cashier Reynolds had offered
him that much to help rob the bank
Witness asked Goodland if Perrin had
anything to do with the scheme, and was
told he knew nothing about it. The de-
PENDANT said Ed Baker came to Hurley
broke and asked Perrin for help because
he had known the latter for twelve years.
Perrin. the witness testified, gave him
$1,000 to buy a saloon. This, less the
cost of a license and other minor matters,
was the money he had on his person
when arrested. Baker endeavored to
establish an abb by testifying that he was
at the theater at the hour of the robbery,

THE CITY A WINNER.
An End at Last of the Long-Standing
Case of Andrew Hartupee,
WHO SUED FOR A LARGE AMOUNT.
Judge Stowe Sustained on Every Point by
the Supreme Court.
LUTHERAN PASTORS WANT A CHARTER

Chief Justice Paxson, of the Supreme
Court, yesterday settled the long litigation
over the pumping engines supplied to the
city of Pittsburg by Andrew Hartupee in
1873 and 1874. The Supreme Court affirms
the decision of Judge Stowe, of Common
Pleas No. l. in the case in which he sat as
examiner and master. Hartupee's contracts
with the city called for the payment to him
Of about $500, 900, but his first suit to re-
cover the contract price was decided against
him on two grounds: First, that he had not
complied with his contract; and, secondly, that
the matter in dispute should have been sub
mitted to the a-b1trament of the mechanical
engineer, who had control of the work on the
part of the city.
Subsequently this matter was submitted to
this engineer, and he made an award in favor
of the city. Upon this award a suit was brought
against David Hostetter, who was surety on
Hartupee's contract, and the city recovered a
verdict against him of SS75, 600, to be released
on the payment of Sl9l20O. Finally Hartupee
fled bill in equity against the city to set aside
and cOllusion, and recover the balance of $685.
600 due under the contract. This was the case
heard by Judge Stowe under a special agree
ment and decided by him in favor of the city.
The Chief Justice says that after having ex-
amined the case. with an anxious desire to see
that no injustice has been done to the plaintiff.
the Count fails to find any legal reason for dis
turbing the decree of the lower court. The testi-
mony offered by the plaintiff did not tend to
connect the city of Pittsburg with any fraud in
the procurement of the award, The decree is
therefore affirmed,

CONTRACTOR FISHEL'S STORY.

"An oil contractors life is not all sun
shine by good DEAL" said Mr.. Fishel.
"He has to be on the ground to oversee the
work, and is thus exposed to all kinds OF
weather. This was the cause of my trouble
1 caught cold after cold, until it finally de-
veloped into case of chronic catarrh. My
head and nose were constantly stopped up.
First one nostril would be clogged and then
the other. Ny eyes were weak and watery.
There were roaring and buzzing noises in
my ears. had dull, heavy pain in my
forehead, directly over my eyes. L could
feel the mucus dropping from my head to
my throatP'
The speaker was Mr.. 81. j. Fishel, a
prominent character among oil men, and
widely known throughout all the oil district
of Western Pennsylvania. He is a con-
tractor and rig builder, and long experience
has made him second to none in the busi-
ness. His residence is at 217 Coltart square,
one of the most beautiful sections of Oak

ordination - The Court Retires

| Lieutenant Steele n Brave OMcer-Private
Wild Given n Reputation for Insub-
ordination - The Court Retires
to Consider Their Finding.
CHICAGO. March 24.-The courtmartial
| of Lieutenant Steele, charged with harsh
| treatment of Private Wild, reassembled this
morning, after having been adjourned for
two days on account of the death OF General
Crook. Lieutenant Steele took the stand in
| his own behalf, and told the story of his
encounter with Wild substantially as it has
! heretofore been published. He admitted
striking Wild, and swearing at him. He
was very angry with Wild; more so than ne
had ever before been with private soldier.
Wild was highly insubordiuate. Examina-
tion failed to shake the Lieutenant's testi-
mony.
Captain Phelps, Lieutenant Steele's su-
perior officer, was then called and testified
as to Steele's bearing toward the men under
him. Captain Phelps testified that Wild
was insolent and insubordinate and gave
more trouble than any other man in the
troop. The witness said that he had never
known, in 20 years experience, a better
officer of his age than Lieutenant Steele.
Colonel Edwin F. Townsend, of the
Twelfth Infantry, Commandant at Fort
Yates, testified that report of the Steele
Wild fracas had been made to him both by
Lieutenant Steele and Private Wild. Steele
admitted having struck Wild in a moment
OF passion and that he regretted it. "I
told him, you have yourself committed
very grave breach of discipline
and a violation of the regulations
In striking soldier. No officer who can
not control his own temper can expect to
control other men, 1 told Wild that the
order he had refused to obey was a perfectly
proper one, and that he was guilty of
grave breach of discipline. I consider
Lieutenant Steele one of the very best young
officers of the army. 1 once had to send a
troop of cavalry to suppress an incIpient
outbreak among the Indians. / selected
Lieutenant Steele and the Indians were
back in their reservation inside of "a hours"
This ended the testimony and arguments
were made pro and con by Lieutenant
Crowder, Steele's counsel, and Judge Ad-
vocate Murray. This closed the case and
the court retired to consider their finding
and sentence. What this will not be made
known to the public for some time.
