to the necessity of Immediately paving the
public alley on the south side of the armory
and repaving the public alley on the east
side of the arn1ery. AS these alleys will be
used by the artillery and cavalry. Gen
Ordway states that they should be paved
with asphalt. The sidewalk on l. street in
front of the armory. according to tine gen.
eral, requires relaying. either with brick or
granolithic, the latter preferable.

say, that gas lamp be put up west of the

HARRY HAYWARD INDIGNANT.

A Story Was Published That He Plan
ned to Escape.
MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, January o.
Harry Hayward was indignant when he
was brought into the court room today.
His attorneys were also indignant, and Mr.
Erwin lost no time in letting the court
know the state of the defenses feelings.
1t was all due to a story printed this
morning with reference to q recently at
tempted Jail delivery.
The sheriff had discovered a carefully
planned conspiracy among the prisoners in
the county jeil for midnight delivery.
1t had proceeded SO far that a fine set CT
tools had been procured and six rivets
taken out of the bars in protected por-
ticn of the cage The plan was to get
through the cage. overpower the single
night Waterman and escape, but the sus-
piciOns of the sheriff were aroused and he
caused search OF the cells to be made.
The discovery Of tools frustrated the plan.
The paper which published an account of
the affair endeavored to connect Harry
Hayward with the plot to escape Ind as
cribed to him the leadership of the affair.
Attorney Erwin. addressing the court, de-
clared that an explanation was due his
client. He then detailed how one of the
prisoners on the lower tier had passed up
to Hayward. whose cell is on the upper
tier, a bottle of acid. with which he was
told he could make his escape by using it
to corrode the bars. Hayward at once
tcld Erwin of the occurrence and was ad-
vised to have nothing whatever to do with
any such plot. He acquiesced and 1t was
determined to notify the authorities of the
plan. Hayward did not care to gain the
Ill will Of the other prisoners by playing
the informer, and the officers agreed, when
informed OF the plot through Hayward.
that his connection with the affair should
not be divulged.
Mr.. Erwin was very Indignant there
fore, at the publication.
Judge Smith said that the whole affair
was outside of the trial, but in view Of the
peculiar circumstances it was proper
or ough for the defense to make an ex-
PLANTATION. Turning to the press table he
made special plea to the newspaper re-
pcrters to be fair and impartial in all
that they wrote concerning the trial.
The third juror secured today in
the person of c. s. Philbrick, a lumber
man.

SURPRISING MAGNIFroENCE.
The Scene After the Storm in thu
Sferrns.


Sferras.
SACRAMENTO, Cal, January 22.-The
scene in the Sierras Is one of surprising
n.agnifcence. 1t seems as II the route OF
the Central Pacific were laid through the
line Of the greatest SNOWFALL With drifts
forty feet deep and snow twenty-five feet
deep on the level at the summit, the ener-
gies of the railroad people are put to the
test. Luckily. thewind Is not blowing. and
the situation is not complicated by the for
mdable land and snow slides that SO often
make railroading and even existence in the
high Sierras perilous.
In places hardy mountaineers In the
smaller towns communicate by means OF
tunnels through the snow. Habitattons are
cbliterated and the reign Of the storm
king. magnificent. but desolate, is SUI
rreme. Trains proceed cautiously through
solid perpendicular banks of snow like
marble wallis towering above the coaches.
The rotaries precede them in ceaseless
toll. cutting the way that couple OF
thousand men have prepared. The snow Is
falling SO fast that 1t is not certain that the
push plows will not have to be invoked to
keep the way open.
The latest official reports show that dur
ing the previous twenty-four hours the
snowfall was as follows: Truckee 3 inches.
on the ground feet inches; Summit, ~
inches, on the ground 20 feet inches; Cas-
cade, so inches, on the ground Is feet;
Cisco, 20 inches, on the ground 16 feet
inches. Emigrant Gap, Is inches. on the
ground 10 feet Blue Canon. IL inches. on
the ground feet; Towles. inches. on
the ground feet 3 inches: Gold Run,
fax, inches, on the ground feet.
There is no flood in the valley. OF course,
the Tules and Low basins are filled. but
the streams are we'll in their banks. and at
present there is no danger of washouts. If
the storm continues it will test the levees.
A warm rain on the mountain of snow
would bring a greater body Of water on
the valley than 1S61-62.
Word was received early this morning
that the snow on tho summit of the noun
tains had reached to a level at the cross
| arms on the telegraph poles, and that four
inches more of snow would PROSTATE every
wire over the mountains.

NEW TRIAL ORDERED.
Verdict Against Boston Store Set
Aside by Court of Appeals.

Aside by Court of Appeals.
The Court Of Appeals this morning in the
case of Fannie c. Ragland and her hus-
band. Henry Lee Ragland, against Messrs.
S. w. Woodward and A. M. Lothrop and
others, reversed the judgment of the court
below and remanded the case for q new
trial.
This was the case in which Mrs. Ragland,
then Miss Fannie G. O'Hare, sued tie de-
fen'lants for $2OOOO damages because OF
false arrest. A verdict for $l5VoO was
rendered, 5000 of which the plaintiff re-
mitted, in consideration OF which the trial
court refused the defendants motion for
new trial. The plaintiff alleged that while
engaged in making purchases at the store
of Messrs. Woodward < Lothrop she was
accused of shoplifting, and was forced into
a private room, where she was compelled
to submit to search Of her person; being
detained, she asserted, for two hours.
The opinion of the court. written by
Chief Justice Bingham of the District Su-
Court in the place of Mr.. Justice Morris. is
quite a lengthy one and virtually holds
that the plaintiff was entitled to only com
pensatory damages. but not under the
proof to punitive damages. Punitive or
vindictive damages or smart money, says
the court, quoting Mr.. Justice Gray OF the
United States Supreme Court, should not
be allowed unless the principal paruci-

expressly or implicitly, by his conduct au-
thorizing or approving it. either before or
after it was committed. Where the proof
does not implioate the principal. however
wicked the agent may have been, 1t is
enough to hold the principal liable in COM
pensatory damages.
MesSrs. Woodward & Lothrop the court
holds, should have been permitted to show
that they did not authorize their private
detective or other employees to insult or un-
justly treat their patrons, and they should
also have been allowed to show that they
had no knowledge of the occurrence until
after it was over. The record in the CASE
explains the court, disclosed no evidence
that Messrs. Woodward & Lothrop de-
fenced their private detective in the mat
ter. Finding that the verdict returned In
cluded more than compensatory damages,
and that testimony explanatory of the po-
sition of Messrs. Woodward & Lothrop was
improperly excluded. the Court of Appeals
reverses the judgment below and remands
the case to the court below for new trial.
