MINNEAPOLIS, Oct 26.-The fair name
of Ignatius Donnelly, politician, littera-
teur, and philosopher, was damaged by
the &c. Paul Pioneer Press to the extent
of 81. AT least so found jury Of twelve
citizens OF Hennepin county at Q o'clock
Saturday evening. Mr.. Donnelly had
sued for Sl0O, 900, but he was just as happy
as school boy over securing the verdict

he slapped his lawyer on the back and
said: "Good Good! Goodi / didn't want

Charged Him with Plagiarism.
Judge Flandreau, who summed up for The
Pioneer Press, was very rough ON the sage
of Nininger. He said: "Why. Atlantis
10 the worst plagiarism a man could
write. 1t is entirely from the French.
'Ragnarok' is the worst fraud ever per-
petrated. AS for that cryptogram, it
the worst nonsense even inflicted on the
public. Donnelly's DIR. Huhuet is an
autobiography Of himself. This man has
devoted his life to /. Donnelly. Every
thing is done for him. He never did any
thing in the world but hold Office. He
hasn't ever created anything When he
couldn't get in any other party he started
the party of Donnelly and went it alone. Z"
The Case Given to the Jury.
In closing the case for Donnelly Mr..
Wellington said that the editor of The
Pioneer Press had been maliciously at
lacking Mr.. Donnelly for over twenty
years. The most important point in
Judge Hooker's charge was that unless
@they were satisfied Donnelly gave the
letter to the Washington correspondent
of The Pioneer Press Donnelly was en-
tilted TO recover damages, even IL only
nominal" The jury was nearly five
hours reaching verdict. Ten ballots
were taken in all the amount of damages
ranging all the way from $50. 900 to 81, the
sum finally agreed upon. Three jury
men were in favor of giving the sage
$4,000

given to the poor, and that the rioters be
not branded with hot irons. The viceroy

THINKS UNCLE SAM TOO HAsTY
A Citizen of Chill Gives His Views on the
Difficulty.


WASHINGTON, Oct. 27.-A correspondent
called at the Gillian legation Sunday.
Don Pedro Moutt, the junta representa-
tive, was absent from the city, but the
legation is kept open by Mr.. Julio Foster,
who wanted it distinctly understood that
he is not in any way officially connected
with the legation, but simply private
citizen of Chilli. Referring to telegram
stating that his son would have charge of
the Investigation into the recent attack
on American sailors at Valparaiso, he
said he expected as much, and added:
The Inquiry in Good Hands.
He is the criminal Judge in Valparaiso, and
more just, honorable and honest man does not
live. | never believed the report that the
Gillian government had taken no steps to fer
ret out the perpetrators of the outrage if it
was an outrage. Such a report is an insult to
Gillian justice i have believed all along that
the facts in the matter have been exaggerated.
The row evidently occurred in q saloon. Fights
between American sailors, and, in fact, those
of any foreign country, and the Chilians are
by no means infrequent.
Premature Talk of War.
The United States Cover nment has been
little hasty, think. Has it any right to de-
mand an indemnity before the crime is
pr0VenI Inc trouble Is tnaJ tne Cnlllan people
are not understood in this country, q fact
which is due to meagre information contained
in the ordinary textbooks abont that country
and its inhabitants. The talk about war being
declared against Chill if she does not make an
apology and give money indemnity for the
lives lost is, l think, premature These mat
tiers will all be Strengthened in the most hon.
orable way to both countries.
A Little Patience N ecessary.
There is no doubt that the United States
could come around the Horn and eat us up,
but in doing so she would find the whole of
South America, with the exception of Brazil,
arrayed against her. What then would be-
come of that great scheme of reciprocity that
seems to be the pet idea of this government
But the idea of war over a common street
row is absurd. Have q little patience. and

Of the cars This is what he saws Of
travelling in Russian sleeping car: "You
must furnish your own bed clothing, pill
lows. wraps, towels, etc., and as all travellers
in Russia as general thing have them you
are not much incommoied, except at times.
when you cannot undress The great
trouble is from the unusual amount of
bundles and traps Of all sorts that passen-
gers are permitted to take into the cars with
them, oftentimes thereby infringing upon
the rights OF others in the occupying of all
the racks and most of the desirable seats,
especially SO when often upon trains of
from ten to twelve passenger cars
there is no more than one
half of car allotted to flrst-class
passengers. The first-class half is painted
blue outside and numbered, and the other
half drab, also numbered as to class. You
are also annoyed at the clouds of cigarette
smoke, caused by the universal habit of
smoking in the cars, at table and almost
everywhere else. There were no smoking
rooms, not even in the hotels. Women,
without regard to rank, all join in. Travel
is generally by second class; the peasants By
the third, with very little difference, except
in fare, between the first and second class.
In the first you have more elbow rooR and
freedom from bundles. Should you be lucky
enough, as we were, to secure ahead the
exclusive use of compartment you can be
very comfortable indeed

AFTER rHR SAILOR RuNNsRs.

The Authorities Looking After the
stealing of Ssemen.
There is practice carried on in Savan-
nah, and, In fact, in all seaport towns.
which the authorities here are trying to
break up. II. is the practice of ''stealingn
seameu from vessels when they are about
to sail.
When a sailor signs articles of shipping
and the vessel is about ready to put to sea,
advance money Is usually given him. Then
1t Is that the runner comes along and in
duces him to desert. promising to ship him
on other vessels, thereby giving him an
opportunity for making double money. II
the sailor agrees he is taken TO some sailor
boarding house and kept in hiding until the
vessel departs. tf
The runner finds out what other vessels
are in need Of men, and he agrees to furnish
the required number, he, of course, getting
a commission for each man from the master
and also a commission on the board from
the proprietor of the boarding house
This practice is Of frequent occurrence in
Savannah. but the parties are seldom capt
ured, on account Of the secrecy with which
the work is carried on.
The Norwegian bark Vaeni Capt. A.. C.
Bel, lost three men by desertion several
days ago, and, as the ship is rapidly get.
ting ready for her voyage, it was necessary
TO get them back. The captain gaye the
case to Detective Wetherhorn, aud after
considerable work he found the deserters
Monday night comfortably ensconced 10 a
sailor boarding house on Bay street, run by
party named Smith. He arrested the
men and locked them up in Jail. They told
the officer that runner" had induced
them to leave the vessel and they gave his
name to the detective. The captain COM
planned to the Norwegian consul, and that
official intends to prosecute the guilty par
ties to the full extent of the law.
