If Lyman r. Casey was made unani-
nous. 1t is expected that on tomor-

ably occur Saturday.
At todaY's session Of the legislature all

motion to strike out the protest, signed
by seven Democrats, against the pro-
ceedings of yesterday was, after much
debate, carried. The protest set forth
that Benton had received forty
seven votes and was elected, not
outstanding the tally of the
clerks. 1t did not state who
voted for Benton, but simply made the
broad statement that Benton got forty
seven votes. The Republicans chal-
lenged and member to get up and de-
clare his vote incorrectly recorded on
the ballot wherein Benton was given
fOrty-three votes. and wherein the Dem
Ocrats claimed forty-seven. None arose,
and the protest on which the Democrats
expected to base Il contest was eXpunged
by vote of 81 to 80, several Populists
and Democrats voting with the Repub-
licanS. Only one ballot was taken for
senator today, resulting as follows:

But the Kittson County Enterprise
gives new feature of Senator Woods
experience with railroad passes. 1t fol-
lows:
Senator Wood is in peck of trouble
since he sold out. He now writes to the
Argyle Banner that he thought he could
do more by selling out to the Republic
can bosses than to stand up true to the
principles which he had advocated.
The press of the state are onto him. and
he can in no way eradicate the falsity
of his conduct. He says there was
mistake about Topper; that he did not
go down over the Northern Pacific road,
and in that we stand corrected, for
gentleman who went down on the
same train with them says we were mis-
Informed, and that it was Oh the Great
Northern that Topper went down OH
and used Woods pass, and Wood dare
not deny it. Now, Mr.. Wood, If you
want to deny this charge publicly that
Mr.. Topper did not use your pass over
the Great Northern we defy you, and
will state that we are ready to prove
our statement at any time. Wood not
only stole from the railway company,
but sold his birthright to get Topper his
appointment, since which time he has
trotted with the Republican side of the
gang,

DID SHE MURDER HIM?
Pretty Wife in Jail Charged With
killing Her Husband.

killing Her Husband.
CREsToN, To-, Jan. 2G.-Mrs. Nettie
Grace, the handsome wife of promi-
nent hotel keeper at Elliott, is now the
most talked about woman in South
western Iowa. Her striking beauty
makes the charge of numbering her
husband, for which she has been placed
in the Red Oak Jail, seem almost too
horrible to be true. She is a woman
about twentv-eight years old, and has
been surrounded all her life with those
little Injuries which go to make up
happiness in this world. She bears her
confinement of a few days well, and
when arrested by the sheriff Of Mont
g0mery country the only words hesaid
were: 81 am innocent Of this terri BILE
crime"
Jan. II Landlord Grace. of the Elliot
hotel, the leading hosiery Of that enter
prising town, met his death III his own
chamber. He was lying in bed at the
time, and his wife was in the room ar
ranging her toilet. She was standing
before mirror, according to her story,
brushing back her hair, when she was
startled by the report of her husbands
pistol. Turning, she saw that her hus-
band had shot himself, und she rushed
from the room, spreading the report of
the suicide. No one thought her guilty
OF murder then, and ii is only within
the past few DAYS that facts have come
10 the surface which have in a measure
warranted her arrest. She is now be-
hind the bars, charged with the crime,
and the network of evidence that is
being woven around her every day only
adds to the certainty of the opinion
many people have that she is guilty.
When the coroner's jury investigated
the murder they brought in verdict
that Grace came to his death "by a
pistol shot fired feloniously by some
person or persons unknown to the jury
which caused immediate DEATH" Since
that verdict was rendered the officials
of Montgomery county have been quiet
ly investigating the murder, and the
elimination of this investigation result
ed in the arrest OF Mrs. Grace. When
first seen Gracc'S eyes were closed, and
when the coroner first saw him he had

Davis Estate Shrinks From $40.

100000 to $3,OOO,OOO.
TACOMA, Wash, Jan. 26.-J. A. Davis,
of Chicago, nephewof the late million
are, A. j. Davis, Of Butte, Mont. has
come to Puget Sound to fetch the re-
mains of his father, who accidentally
killed himself at Victoria Tuesday
night. The claimant of the Davis mill
ions says that the estate. which only
few years ago was estimated to be
worth S10,000,000. IS not now worth over
$4,000 900. In litigation and other ways
a large amount of the estate has been
lost. The case will come up for settle
ment next May.
VICTORIA, b. c., Jan. 26.-The prin-
cipal witnesses at the inquest today on
the body of John A. Davis, of Chicago,
who was killed here several days ago,
were several physicians who attended
Davis after he received injuries. Three
of them testified that Davis skull was
fractured, and that the immediate
the brain. DR.. Jones, who made the
post-mortem examination, testified that
there was sclap wound on the back OF
the head, but that the brain was quite
healthy. He said the left forearm was
broken IN two places, and all the ribs
on the left side were broken close to
the spine. A lung was bruised and
liver lacerated by one of the
broken ribs and considerable hemor-
rhage resulted. Robert Fletcher, chief
clerk at the Grand hotel, where the ac
cident occurred, testified that Davis
had been stopping at the no.
tel eight days. At 9 o'clock
Tuesday morning Fletcher heard ia
fall, and, running to the hallway, found
Davis lying on the tile pavement, bleed
ing prOfusely from wound in the head.
He had no idea as to the cause Of Davis
fall. The jury returned verdict of ac-
cidental death.
CHICAGO. Jan. 26.-It looks now as if
the legal fight i'll the famous Davis will

terneSs on account of the rumors start
ed to the effect that John A.
Davis was murdered at Victoria,

his father had been foully dealt with.

with me on this point. Our first pur-
pose will be to determine as nearly as

LINCOLN'S CIRCUS.
Nebraska Lawmakers Having Fun
With Themselves.

LINCOLN, Neb.. Jan. 26.-Joint ballot
of the Legislature today did not result
much differently from previous ones.
Paddock received 80 votes. Powers
"a, Majors 10; the rest scattering.
The situation is rapidly developing into
circus. Today numerous petitions
were read in joint session asking that
votes be given to this or that man. One
of these men is country postmaster in
PaWnee county, and another pettifog-
ging lawyer in Omaha, who is the
butt of ridicule for the whole
city. The Republicans are playing
for position, and Gov. Crounse is loom
ing up in the background as a possible
choice. The Populists refuse to con-
slider joint candidate of Populists and
Democrats, and the Democrats will not
vote for Powers. 1t appears likely that
there will be no election, and that Pad
docks successor will be appointed by
the governor

STOCK FAMINE.
Hogs and Cattle Scarce in North
western Iowa,

western Iowa.
FORT DODGE, To-. Jan. ga stock
famine is now one of the possibilities, if
not one of the probabilities, in North
western Iowa. Hogs have been scarce
for some time past. and are getting
fewer each day. Where they were for
merly brought in droves. they are now
hauled to town in couples OF trios. The
price of pork in its various forms has
gone up until 1t is worth as
much as beef. Beef, however,
will soon be higher also, since
there are now very few cattle that are
marketable in the country. Buyers and
meat market men from all the towns
around here are out each day buying up
all the cattle they can get. The price
has gone up rapidly, and people are be
ginning to fear that meats of all kinds
will soon be beyond their reach. The
importation of stock is the only thing
that will prevent it, and this has been
begun to some extent. A large number
of farmers are shipping shoats from
Missouri to this county to reStock their
farms. Even this, however, cannot pre-
vent the steady rise in prices.
