FAIR NOTES.

Thursday was the only big day for our
Agricultural Association this year. On
that day about 10, 600 people were on the
grounds.
The entire attendance this year fell -scy-
eral thousand short of last years, and the
total receipts $1,000 less.
A man Of mature Judgment and wide ex-
perience says he never saw better dress
ed crowd, than that on our Fair Grounds
Thursday. The men of this county wear
much better fitting clothes than they did
few years ago, and the women dress in
better style.

Chief Kellogg Recommendations to
COMMUNICATIVE gainst McAliep.
The fire commissioners met in the city
hail last night and did a lot of routine
business. The report of Chief Gardner
Kellogg for the month of August was read
and referred. The chief reports that the
department responded during the month
to eighteen alarms, III which the aggregate
loss was $ls,S70. He remarks. as some
thing more than coincidence. that the
great majority of these fires were in unoc-
cupied houses, or in those wherein the oc-
cupants were temporarily absent, and
draws from this the plain inference that .
fire marshal is needed for the purpose OF
investigating fires and their causes. He
recommends the placing of fire alarm
boxes at Madison and Rose streets. Nc
Claire and Barclay, Thirteenth and WASH
ington, Second and Cherry and Seventh
and Leonard. He recommends that 0. K.
Vitzthum. who had been suspended from
the department, be dropped. The COM
missioners referred the report.
In q supplemental report the chief re-
commended the purchase OF a new truck
and engine, and also the appointment as
subs of Joe Mclaughlin, Philip Sullivan,
John Doran, William J. Breslin and Will
lam Kenny. He also recommended that
the bill for the repairs of truck No. 2,
broken on Labor day by collision with a
Second street electric car. be sent to the
Consolidated Street Rail way Company, it
having been clearly demonstrated that the
accident was the fault Of the men running
the car. The commission authorised the
chief to appoint the subs requested and re-
ferred the bill for the truck and the matter
of new truck and engine to councils. Subs
were also authorized to be appointed, under
orders of the commission, as follows:
Leroy J. Stevens, William Moorhead,
Nels Berge. Jay Spencer and George
Esplin.
A letter was read from +. w. d. Hol-
brook asking better protection from fire
for property on Queen Anne hill.
A long written list Of charges against

and overbearing behavior to his subordi-
mates, giving names, dates and circum-
stances. It was referred to committee of
the whole, which will meet today head
quarters. Fireman Fred NJ. Collins, sus-
pended few days ago On a charge Of late
ness at duty and Unoecoming conduct,

Inc ATTEMPT Of the American CONNER

Upon the publication of the announce
ment OF the completion of the organiza-
ton, the organizers, d. f. Gleason and w.

several OF the subscribers, but most of
them announced that they had concluded
to withdraw from tho agency. Suit was
entered before Justice Won Tobel against
Stumer d Stone to collect the money, and

A Long List Of Witnesses Who Swors to
His Bad Standing.

A Long List Of Witnesses Who Swors to
His Bad Standing.
The hearing of the testimony in the
csse in the Plouf- Dempsey damage suit
practically came to a close yesterday. and
the argument will begin this morning.
Upon the opening of court the cross-ex-
animation of 7. II. Dempsey, which be-
gan on Monday, was taken up and
finished without anything of importance
being brought out.
Mrs. 7. II. Dempsey and Noble Wall
lngford and his wife, all of whom were
charged with inducing Miss Carrie Shears
to attempt to horsewhip DR.. Plouf. were
placed on the stand in turn, and denied
that they had in any way urged on the
assault.
James Forbes, brother Of Mrs. Demp-
sey, who lived in the Dempsey household,
testified that he had gone down street on
the same street car with Miss Shears on
the evening that she went to Ploufs
Office. She had been threatening the doc
tor for a long time. and that day had an
nounced her intention to call on him with
ahorsewhip. After they were down town
Miss Shears had borrowed IS Of the wit
ness to hire q cab. When he saw that
che was really in earnest. he went down
10 the Occidental block to see the fun.
A large number of witnesses were placed
on the stand by Mr.. Piles. the defendants
attorney. to show that DR.. Plours reputa-
ton for integrity, fair dealing and moral
ity was bad. They were not allowed to
testify to specific crooked acts by Plouf,
which Mr.. Piles offered to show, but they
oil agreed that the plaintiff held bad rep
utation in the community. Among those
who testified to this effect were DR.. G. w.
Sharples and +. N. Slime, who swore that
Ploufs bad standing was commonly known
and talked of among the reputable physi-
clans Of the city.
small amount of testimony may be
offered in rebuttal this morning. but it
will probably not occupy much time, and
the argument will be begun before noon.

Supreme Court.
ptouF.pEMPsEY DAMAGE SUIT.
Testimony Practically All in--DiHer-
ence in Accounts the Cause Of q
Suit Between Bsnks,

The case of Albert Friedrich. the con-
yicted murderer of Julius Scherbr,ng.
which has been stubbornly fought in the
courts for the last five years, has gone ND
TO the supreme court of the United
States. Friedrich is now serving out a
twenty years. sentence at Walla Walia.
and an appeal is taken from the decision
Of Judge Hanford, Of the federal district
court, in refusing to grant . writ of
habeas corpus to free Friedrich from the
penitentiary. The appeal. which was
filed by Tyler q Tyler, Friedrich's at
sorneys, was as follows:
ALBERT Friedrich above named, conceiv-
ing himself aggrieved by the order of said
court in the above entitled proceeding of
date August 8. 1892, refusing to issue q
writ of habeas corpus in his behalf to the
warden of the penitentiary of said state
and discharge him from unlawful impris-
onment, doth hereby appeal from said
order to the supreme court of the United
States and he prays that this appeal will
be allowed, and that the transcript of the
record, proceedings ana papers upon
which said order was made, duly authen-
ticated. may be sent to the supreme court
OF the United States"
Judge Hanford signed an order directing
the clerk of his court to transmit the record
TO the supreme court.
An affidavit by w. B. Tyler, one of
Triedrich's attorneys. was also filed, which
stated that the afiiant was one of the firm
appointed by the judge Of the superior
court to defend Friedrich. who had neither
money nor property with which to secure
counsel. 1t is set forth that Friedrich is
now confined in the state penitentiary and
has no means to stand the cost of the APP
peal.
Acting on this affidavit Judge Hanford
signed second order, directing the usual
costs and fees to be RENTED ard the
clerk to transmit the record to the supreme
court without their being paid.

part of his time yesterday in hearing the
case of the First National bank. of Blaine,
against the L. II. Griffith Realty and Bank
ing Company to recover 81, $50. claimed to
be due on account. The defendant was the
plaintiffs correspondent in Seattle and,
when the latter last winter closed its bust
nos, temporarily. Its books showed that
the Griffith company owed it a balance of
N.SSn. The defendants books, on the con-
trary, showed that there was no balance
due tho plaintiff and suit was brought to
recover the amount In dispute.
At the time suit was brought L. IL.
griffith. president of the defendant cor
poration, denied that the account showed
any balance to the credit Of the plaintiff
and stated further that the manipulation
OF the account by N. III. Cornish, president
OF the Blaine bank, seemed to be at least
questionable.

Humes Is trying the case. Most Of yester-
day was occupied in the examination OF
l. II. Griffith. president, and l.. ID. Ross.
vice president OF the defendant corpora
ton. The hearing will DO resumed this
