same and highest number of electoral
votes, the one of them having the
greatest number of popular votes

controversy shall be settled by a

DAUGHADAY WANTS DAMAGES.
The Proprietor OF the "Famous" in
This City viii Sue Clafiin &
Co. for Damages.
From the St. Louis Repubuc.

From the st. Louis Republic.
An interesting sequel tothe recert
court proceedings and attachment
suits in which Mr.. Hamilton Daugh-
aday figured as a deeply interested
party, is promised insthe shape of
q sensational damage suit for libel
to be brought by that gentleman
against the firm of II. B. Clafin &
Co. of New York City. Mr.. Daugh-
aday is president of the Merchants
Life Association and had an interest
in the old firm of Brown, Daugha-
day & Co. of this city The facts of
the complication between himself
and III. b. Clafin & Co. became
public property last Friday a week
ago, when Attorney Nathan Frank
for that company filed three attach
ment suits against Mr.. Daughaday,
ct al, one for So, 900 and the two
others for So 900 each. After the
filing of the suits Mr.. Daughaday's
property here, as well as some he
owned in Moberly, Mexico and
Lebanon, Mo-, was levied upon in
satisfaction. The plaintiffs attorney
stated at the time the suits were
filed that the failure of the Fort
Smith (Ark.) firm of the Holmes
Dry Goods Company, in which M.
Daughaday was a partner and had
large interests, had precipitated the
legal steps taken.
The day following the filing Of
the suits Mr.. Daughaday filed six
deeds of trust in Recorder Hobbs
office, and Mr.. Daughaday was
quoted al saying that the suits
would be contested, as they were
premature, being founded only on
the failure of certain houses all over
the country to pay their notes when
they fall due. The filing of the deeds
of trust was for the purpose of pre-
venting further attachments and OF
securing certain creditors.
The somewhat startling statement
is now made on what seems good
authority that Mr.. Daughaday holds
the entire matter Of the institution
of the suits by Clafin & Co. to have
been the result of spite work, and
that they were intended, being
brought about on the eve of Mr..
Daughaday's daughters marriage
to Mr.. Tracy c. Drake, of Chicago,
to force payment on unmatured
notes held against him by the New
York firm, the idea being hat the
notes would be paid to avoid pub
licity at a time when it would prove
peculiarly embarrassing. The notes
referred to are the only ones sued
upon, and it is claimed they vii
not fall due for some time to come.
1t is stated on the same authority
that Mr.. Daughaday intends suing
Clahin & Co., of New York, TO,
$3.50, 900 damages for libel and in
jury to his business.
Mr.. Daughaday was seen at his
residence, 37O3 Westminster place,
by a Republic reporter last night.
He vas dlsinclined to discuss the
matter and refused to give any ex-
PLANTATION of the notes in question.
81 would much prefer" said he,
THAT nothing be printed about the
matter as it might injure my case"
"Do you NEAR then hat you in
tend bringing suit for damages, as
stated?"
1.-THE matter is in the hands OF
my attorney. Judge Smith P. Calf"
"Will you state what the notes
are that you claim are unmatured?"
"No, l prefer not to try the case
! out of court"

CULTIVATION.
Every garden ought to be manur-
ed. 1t can be best done in the fall.
If manure is applied in the spring
it ought to be well rotted and thor
oughly mixed with the soil. The
garden ought to be spaded or
ploughed deeply and afterwards re-
duced to a fine filth. That is the
only method by which the best re-
suits can be obtained. Besides de-
stroying weeds, deep and frequent
cultivation best promotes the growth
of most fruits and vegetables. OF
course there are some that do not
require it, but with all early and fire.
quent stirring of the ground is i'm
portant. 1t tends to impart the quick
growth that makes plants tender
and juicy. The best implements
for this purpose are the spading
fork, hoe and rake. With these IN
ordinary seasons a vigorous growth
can be secured from the start. Ii
from any aus a plant becomes
stunted it is often impossible to
make it thrifty. No set rules fol
the cultivation of a garden can be
marked out, either as to commence
ment or continuance. These must
vary with seasons and soil. The
judgment of the gardener must reg
ulate them and it is just here that
experience and skill are the best
guides.
The Chicago Tr buae telegraphs
