LAW NEEDS DEFINING.
Contest for ONCE Which Is n Test of

Contest for ONCE Which Is n Test of
the Australian Ballot Law.
Sioux Falls, s. D., Nov. 25.-Judge
II. II. Keith, an attorney for Sheriff
Knott, has served the papers in the
contest case instituted by Sheriff
Knott involving the election of G. w.
Hubbar as sheriff at the recent cleo
ton. The count made by the judges
of election gives Mr.. Hubbar a ma
jority over Mr.. Knott of 1888 votes.
The complaint in the contest case al
leges that Mr.. Knott received enough
votes to give him majority of 400.
The point involved is a question of the
proper marking Of an official ballot
under the Australian system, and may
have to be ultimately decided by the
supreme court. Knott claims that the
voter, in several hundred instances,
marked cross in the ring at the head
of the Republican ticket and placed a
cross opposite his CKnott's) name,
which, he claims. should have been
counted for him, although the name Of
Mr.. Hubbar was not erased.

FATHER DUCEY REBELS.
VIII Attend Meetings of the Lexow
Committee.

Will Attend Meetings of the LexOw
Committee.
New York, Nov. 23.-It is announced
by friends of Father Ducey, pastor Of
st. Leo's. that he has appealed to Mgr.
Satolli for liberty to attend sessions OF
the Lexow committee, which Arch
bishop Corrigan has forbidden him to
attend Father 1ucey has confirmed
the story of his being forbidden by the
archbishop, and the situation has be-
come grave, in view of the probability
that Father Ducey will rebel against
the archbishops order. 1t is also pos
sible that both the archbishop and
Father Ducey will be summoned be-
fore the I4exow committee. Arch
bishop Corrigan. it is said, will be in
vited to show copy of the letter
which he has written to Father Ducey
on the subject of the I4exow committee.
1t is said that Father Ducey had con-
suited with Archbishop Ireland and
Dr.. Burtsell about the matter.
do you recognize that the archbish-
op has any right Ito forbid your pres
ence at the committee meetings?" was
asked Father Ducey.
81 do not recognize that bishop or
any other man has the right to inter-
fere with the liberty of an Independent
citizen, whether he be priest or a
layman, unless he is violating the law
of God, some defined law of the
Christian religion. or some law Of the
state or nation" replied Father Ducey.

Business Is Better Owing in Part
to Cold Weather..
New York, Nov. 25.-Bradstreet's
today says: The features of the gen.
eral trade for the week include an
increase in distribution of holiday
goods. heavy clothoing, hats, season
able dry goods, and, at various points,
hardware and shoes. This was slim
ulated by seasonably colder weather
and continuance of the feeling of
confidence in a nearby improvement
in demand. At the South favorable
influence is a moderate advance in the
price of cotton. due to the greater
favor with which lower estimates Of
the size of the cotton crop are being
received. and to the prevalence Of
the opinion that the price of cotton
is too low. Some shippers of South
ern lumber complain that Southern
railways are showing preference to
cotton. From points in Southeastern
Atlantic states some hesitancy is re-
ported in supplying goods before
making collections for the full sea-
sons business. At the North lake
navigation has practically closed, and
the results of the seasons work are
generally satisfactory.

finances have been somewhat straight,
ened, arising, it is said. out Of his

institutions of the city, but, owing, so
the story goes, to Mr.. Sides manage

made by the directors during the
early months of this year. The result
was that Side retired from the presi-
dency and was succeeded by J. 81.
