who appeared at police headquarters Mon
day night with two painful cuts in his
head, claiming that he had been assaulted
by highwaymen. caused the arrest yester-
day of G. Hogan, teamster, upon a charge
of assaulting him with deadly weapon.

while they were on dark street both men
suddenly sprang at him and knocked him
down by striking him on top of the head
with some blunt instrument. Hogan was
arraigned before Judge Rivers yesterday,
but, inasmuch as there was no corrobora-
tive evidence, the defendant was dis

federal judge for Alaska. is at the

the legislature, and in 1884 he was presi-
dental elector. At the time of his ap-
pointment as judge last year he was regis

FEEDING THE SUFFERERS.

Tho Rink transformed INTO u Great
Dining Hall.
1t was not long after the crowds of
sufferers began to flock to the Peavey
Grand that the ladies commenced prep
nrations for feeding them
The old rink, on Fifth street, was Sc
cured and in half hour was changed
into a huge dining hall. Three long
tables were built the entire length of
the room. Orders for supplies were
given at once md soon bread, meats,
canned goods and vegetables were
pouring into the rink.
Men and women began cutting
bread and meats for sandwiches
and canned goods were opened in
great quantities. No time was taken
to spread cloths, and Mt 10 o'clock the
white pino tables were we'll covered
with edibles. The bill of fare was not
exquisite, but everything looked uppc-
tizing, even though prepared with such
haste.
When everything was in readiness
word was sent to the Peavey Grand.
Detachments of hungry w,men nd
children were started toward tho rink
and men were stationed along the way
to guide them. The tables were soon
filled and the edibles We're supplied by
the ladies having the work in charge.
Gasoline stoves were carried
into the building and steaming hot
coffee was supplied for all. When the
dishes were ready to wash for the
preparation of the second table, fair
hands that would not deign to touch
the dishwater in their mothers kitch-
ems were busy in the work. No
aprons were in sight and the dresses
of some in short time appeared us ii
they had went through the flood in
the Floyd valley.
Tho scene around n big table in one
corner of the room was interesting.
Colonel Lothrop was busy slicing
great pieces of meat, while around
him We're dozen ladies making sand.
wiches In the southeast ante room
great pots of coffee We're boiling and
another corps Of sandwich makers
were ut work.
People were eating all the afternoon.
At supper time everything wn.
in readiness to provide an ample meal
for all.

TIE PACKING HOUSES.

They Arc All Surrounded and Consider
able Damage Done.
Tho Lcech street bridge gave way Mt
1918 and footing down lodged against
the llanlsinson bridge just about 100
yards below. This caused back water
and the torrent was turned out of its
course around the Haakinson plant
A large number of cattle and hogs
were confined in the pens and the
force was called out to make an effort
to get them driven into the house. The
water which had been rising rapidly
caused a collapse of the sheds The
men engaged below were caught under
the falling debris and made n frantic
effort to escape. The sheds swung
around and lodging against the en-
bankment of the Chicago, St Paul,
Minneapolis and Omaha tracks gave
the men chance to get away. Three
men were engaged in the elevated
chute leading up to the second story
and were caught in the crush 1t was
said that the three men were drowned,
but n reporter for TIE TRIBUNE who
witnessed the collapse is positive that
the men escaped. Frank Phillips was
caught by a falling beam and had his
shoulder badly crushed, and it is
thought dislocatcd. Some of the em-
ployes only escaped by swimming to
terra tirma.
AT IL o'clock the Hnakinson bridge
went out, and n large mass OF debris
lodged against it, went floating down
the stream.
Mr.. Hankinson, Mr. Maxfeld and
some of the other employe $ witnessed
the destruction of tho outbuildings,
sheds, etc, from the lower story of
the main plant and were seen vainly
striving to save all property possible.
The Silberhorn house was not in the
direct track of the flood, but when a
reporter We've the surroundings ut II
O'Clock the water was rapidly rising
about the plant although it is possible
that the escape allowed by the trcstle
on the Omaha road will keep the flood
from doing a great deal OF damage to
this plant The damage to the Hanlk-
inson plant cannot be estimated and
us Mr. IInakinson was surrounded no
communication could be had with him
A large number of cattle and hogs
which could not be gotten out of the
sheds were seen vainly striving to
surmount the crest of tho flood short
time later when the shed broke up
and went foating down stream. 1t is
not known how many hogs the Sill
berhorn company had in their pens, but
the number is probably pretty largo Us
they purchased quite literally yes
