JUDGMENT REVERSED.
Agile Wins in His Damage Suit
Against the Omaha. e.

. WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.-The United
States supreme court reaSsembled today
for the first time after the holiday recess,
and handed down number of minor
decisions. One of these was the action
of Horatio e. Agile against the Chicago,
St. Paul Minneapolis q Omaha railroad.
Angle had contract to build section
of railroad for the Portage railroad, but
was hampereG in doing the work by the
C.,St.P. M. & o. railroad, which was de-
sirous of constructing the Portage road.
Agile finally abandoned the contract, and
sued the c., st. P, nj. q D. for $500, 900
damages for interfering with his work.
The lower court failed to sustain his
claim, but the supreme court today re-
versed the judgment below for the c.,
81. p, NJ. & D. railroad, holding that
they had so harassed Agile that he was
entitled to damages.
Famous Smith, an Indian condemned
to death for the murder of another In
dian in the Indian territory, secured
favorable action on his appeal, the
supreme court holding that affrays be-
tween Indians in the Indian territory
had to be tried by the local courts of
special Indian jurisdiction, and not by

Daring Desperadoes Loot an

ATTEMPT TO WRECK A TRAM

BELvIDERE, Ills. Jan. 3.-One Of the
boldest and most daring pieces of safe
blowing and bank robbing ever perpe-
trated in Northern Illinois was COM
mitted at The little town of Franklin
Grove, i'll Lee counry, some time last
night, by which the Franklin Grove
bank, operating under the state laws,
was looted of nearly $4,000 in cash and
valuable papers. The robbers. after
completing their clever job, got
out of town as quietly as they
came and left no trace behind by which
their Identity can easily be discovered.
Nothing was known of the robbery until
the bank officials came down to open
the concern for business this morning.
On entering the bank they were startled
to find the vault doors open, papers
strewn about the floor and everything
in general confusion. The re-
port of the bold robbery quickly
spread about the ordinarily quiet little
afioat as to the amount the bank had
been plundered out of. The bank Off
cials at once closed the doors ana re-
fused to make statement as to the
amount of their loss. They Immediately
wired to Chicago for detectives to
be placed OIL the case, and, until
they have investigated the matter,
will firmly refuse to make state
ment to the public. The bank is
one of the most solid of its kind in this
section, however. and is the despository
for many of the wealthy farmers of Lee
county. The deposits, averaging over
$4,000, are heavier than that of late.
Those in a position to know say the loss
is nearly $4,000. The robbers took
everything in the safe which was inside
the vault. No one in the village heard
the report when the safe was blown
open, and, as the town has no police,
the robbers easily got away with the
plumber. The greatest of excitement
prevails.

Rev. Embree Reads Himself Out

Topeka, Kan., Jan. 3.-Rev. E. S.
Embree, pastor of the leading Methodist
church of this city, famous as an advo-
cate of prohibition, and heretofore
answering in his allegiance to
the Republican party. has declared
his independence of political parties,
and has taken a stand on the social
question which ranks him with Mrs.
Lease and other prominent Populists.
A sermon which he delivered last Sun
day, taking for his text passage from
the. Scriptures, "HOw old art thou?'
he said: 1.-The life of nation is
measured by the character of its
public men and officials. but there are
elements in our national life which are
injurious. See what the demonetiZa-
tion of single metal has caused. 1t
has shocked the entire world, and has
brought on a financial crisis which has
hardly ever been surpassed. AS long as
political parties have the same old po-
litical rivalres and believe that TO the
victer belongs the spoils. so long
will our national life be crippled. While
LIDO otebelieve in mob violence, have
heard of mobs that l would not get in
the way of preventing from carrying out
| their purpose. We can expect mob vio-
lence as long as the people elevate 10
| the bench judges not worthy OF public
confidence Our public men should be
such men as We could point our sons to
with pride, but where is there a gov
,ernar that we can point to with much
| pride?"

No Longer a Factor

uCHICAGo, Jan. 3. 3.-Chairman Carter,
of the Republican national committee,
left for the East after conference here
with party leaders regarding next talPs
congressional elections. In an inter
view Mr.. Carter said:
1.-The national executive committee
will meet in Washington Jan. IL, and
the members are naturally desirous of
knowing how the great body of the
party stands upon the principal issues,
and whether or not there have been
radical changes in popular sentiment in
congressional districts, and especially
where the districts are located"
He said the Republican party favored
the use of both gold and silver. He
dismissed the Peoples party as no
longer factor in national politics.

fresh water, and, most appropriately,
she is to be named ''|'Nortl America
The vessel is the first of passenger
fleet building to the order of the Great
Northern railway, that is designed ito
revolutiohiZe the travel of the Great
lakes. For years the freight traffic of
the Northern lakes has been carried on
better and better ships, until noSg these
boats are IN every point the peer, il
not the superior, of the freight carriers
of any other nation, or. waters.
But the passenger feet did not ad.
vance; the boats built in the early '70s
were deemed good enough, and for the
long trip between the head of Lake Sa-
perior and the foot of Lake Erie. boats
making the run in five days, accommo-
dating comfortably scarcely more than
100 passengers, and carried on in the
methods of years ago, have been the
best to be had. The North America
and her consort, the Northwest, which
will be launched in a few weeks, are
1888 feet long, A feet wide and 26 feet
deep. They will have accommodation
for about 600 passengers, half first-class
and half emigrant. The vessels are as
thoroughly American as the new inter

about which so much has been said OF

HASTINGS, Neb., Jan. 3.-After a
rather sharp contest the factions of the
Farmers Alliance succeeded in making
a compromise today by which the Off
GERS were divided among the young ele-
ment and the "old-timers." John Ii.
Powers, who has been president for
years, was turned down, and Allen Rott.
who has long been feature or Alliance
work in Nebraska, was removed from
the executive committee. The work of
recognizing the Alliance in Nebraska
was begun. Before the session ad-
journed list of resolutions declar-
atory of the orders principles was
adopted. In the first, free coinage
OF silver and gold at 16 to and an un-
limited issue of treasury notes is de-
manded. Two paragraphs are devoted
to state issues, and then Secretary Nor
ton is given turn on the spit. His re-
tention in office Is said to be an insult
to the entire farming community. The
secretary of the Alliance will send
copy OF the resolution to President
Cleveland and Secretary Morton. The
South Carolina plan is indorsed for
dealing with the liquor question. The
concluding plank is devoted to deplor-
ing the action of the United States
court in enjoining the labor leaders
from ordering strike. 1t is regarded
as blow at free speech. A conference
of the Popnlists was held, but little was
| ACCOMPLISHED.

Gov. Lewelling Wants to Drop

TOPEKA. Kan, Jan. 3.-Gov. Lewell-
ing returned from Leavenworth today,
and upon his arrival at his office inn
mediately went INTO executive session
with Frank Doster on the Mrs. Lease
case. His front Office was besieged,
and after numerous requests for an
audience he sent out the following:
"This talk about Mrs. Lease and Gov.
Leweliing is getting to be chestnut.
The people don'tcare very much about
individuals. No man or woman is
greater than the party he represents,
and Populists i'll particular are looking
for good government more than to up
hold any man or woman. Half that is
published about current politics in Kan
sas is false, and made from whole cloth.
Now the statement that an armistice
had been declared, or any kind of an
understanding arrived at between Mrs.
Lease and myself is falsehOod No. l..
The numerous reasons assigned for
her removal are batch No. 2. That l
had telegraphed member of The Fed
Grafton of Labor to come to To-
peka so we could go to Leavenworth
i to influence the action of the federation
for or against anybody's interest is
! falsehood No. 5. The statement that
Mrs. Lease has employed Judge Doster
is lie No. 4. Lies are too abundant;
| life is too short. Who goes up or who
goes down in politics makes very little
| difference II the heayen-lpspired princi-
| pies of truth still go marching forward
| The leader of today is the follower of
tomorrow. The pilot is easily replaced /;

f. j. Close, the governors private sec
retary, declares positively that j. w.
| Freeborn appeared at the meeting OF
the state board of charities at OIathe

He says Mrs. Lease was ousted, and that
the board was reorganized by the eiec-
tion of M. A. Householder to succeed
Mrs. Lease as president. This done,
