LEVEE BONDS GOOD.
A Mississippi Decision Against Them
Reversed by the Supreme Court

WASHINGTON, April 13.-In the supreme
court today an opinion was handed down
In the case of Woodruff, trustee, versus The
State Of Mississippi, appealed from the su-
preme court of that state. The case involved
the validity of bonds issued by the Ievee
board for the improvement of the Mississippi
which had been questioned because the bonds
were made payable in gold. The supreme
court of the state decided that the bonds
were void because the law did not authorize
the payment of the bonds in any particular
kind of money. The opinion of the court be-
low was reversed and the case remanded
Justice Harlan delivered an opinion in the
cases of John Gibson and Charles Smith, tried
and found guilty of murder in the state court
of Mississippi. The plaintiffs are colored
men. They sought to have their cases trans
ferred to the federal courts, alleging that
there was a denial of justice, because no
men of their own color were summoned to sit
upon the jury. The state court denied the
petition. Justice Harlan sustained this de-
cision.

MINNEAPOLIS MARKETS.
Slight Weakness in Grain Brought
Out the Buyers

The decline in wheat which occurred on
Saturday was sharp and big enough to scare
as a result yesterday the opening was lit
tie weak at about the prices that ruled at
Saturdays close. There was lots of wheat for
sale, but there was also demand from shorts
who were disposed to take profits on the de-
cline. The big break which occurred in wheat
prices on Saturday and the continued weak
ness in futures placed the market for cash
wheat In an uncertain position. At the open
ing there were found buyers who were will
ing to take car two at a slight advance
over the regular premium Of cent. But for

AFTER THE STORM.
Serious Damage Reported From All
Parts of Colorado.

DENVER, Col, April 19.-The great snow
and wind storm which brought trains to a
standstill on the divide between Denver and
Colorado Springs, yesterday, abated during
the night. At Monument and Palmer Lake.
where the trains were stalled, there is eight
inches Of snow on the level and In places
drifts are twenty feet deep. Further south,
the snow fall was even greater. At Trinidad
traffic on all railroads came to a standstill.
Two west-bound Santa Fe and one gulf pas
senger train are tied up in Trinidad. In
Pueblo, the wind attained a velocity of fifty
four miles per hour. Two tall small smoke
stacks of the citizens electrict light works
were blown down. On the prairies to the
east the storm will benefit the ranchmen who
have put in large acreage of small grain,
but it is believed some cattle perished in the
blizzard. The only loss of life so far report
ed was at Colorado Springs, where ]. M.
Solomons house blown down and his
twelve-year-old son, James, was killed The
other six members of the family escaped with
bruises. In Denver there was no snow fall
worth mentioning and the maximum velocity
of the wind was forty miles an hour, while
on the divide it blew at the rate of seventy
five miles.

WASHINGTON, April 1S.-The supreme
court this morning handed down decision
reversing the decision of the Montana court
In the case of George s. Lewis ct al. VS.. The
Northern Pacific Railroad, in which the plain
tiffs were awarded a verdict of $22, 000 with
interest. The case, which has been in the
courts for some time, brought by the
plaintiffs in the United States court at Helena,
Mont, January, 1892, to recover $4,000 for the
less of TO- 900 cords of wood destroyed by fire,
alleged to have been started by spark from
one of defendant company's locomotives, in
August 1890. AS stated above, the Montana
court gave the plaintiffs a verdict for $4,000,
with interest, but the supreme court reverses
this decision, on the ground that the plaintiff
had no title to the wood, which was cut and
stacked upon government ground, without
authority.
Another case decided was that of the North
ern Pacific against Samuel Peters, appealed
from the circuit court of Minnesota, where
suit was brought to recover damages for per-
sonal injury received while working upon the
road. Peters was one of a gang Of fifteen
under foreman. The Minnesota court held
that as the foreman had power to hire and dis
charge men under him that he might be held
to stand in place of the company and that the
company was responsible for the negligence.
The supreme court reverses this judgment,
holding that the company is not responsible
for injuries to employees inflicted through the
carelessness of section bosses. The same
course is taken in the case of the Northern
Pacific against +. J. Danson, administrator
of Hugh Charlen, who was injured under
similar circumstances.
These are the cases which Counsel Bum
argued before the supreme court, when in
Washington, a week or two ago.

OMAHA'S NEW CARD.
Summer Schedule Made Effective
Next Sunday.

The Omaha officials yesterday practically
completed the work of arranging the new
summer schedule, which will be made effect
i've next Sunday, and which contains several
changes of more than ordinary importance
Perhaps the most important is the inaugura-
tion of double daily train service between
st. Paul, Minneapolis and Kansas City
The day train from this end under the new
card will not only provide additional accom-
modations for the Omaha patrons but will
carry the morning papers to the south and
southwest in the direction Of Sioux City and
Tracy. This train will leave Minneapolis daily
at $50 and st. Paul at 1005 a. NJ, arrive at
Sioux City at 40 p. m and Kansas City at
$50 next morning. The opposite train will
leave Kansas City at $50 p. m, Sioux City at
9:lS a. m, and will reach ST. Paul at 655 and
Minneapolis at 7:25 p. m. South of Sioux City
this will be practically new train, and will
make the Kansas City connections with the
south. 1t will also connect at Kasota to and
from all points west on the Northwestern, ex-
cept that Sunday there is no train west of
Tracy.
The time of the night limited train is about
the same as at present, save for the fact that
the leaving time has been made a shade later
The train which now leaves MINNEAPOLIS at
7:20 p. m. and st. Paul at 1855 will leave Min
neapolis at 7:40 and st. Paul at Sis. The ar
irving time at the other end is unchanged the
train reaching Omaha at 910 a. M; Kansas
City at 8 $50 p. IN.
The new time Of the north bound train will
be to leave Kansas City at lilo a. NJ, Omaha
at 6:l5 p. M, and arrive in st. Paul at 7:25
a. m. and Minneapolis at s a. M
An almost equally important change to the
Twin Cities is what amounts to the resumption
of the service in effect two years ago by the
operation of what will be known as the Man
kato local train. This train, which has been
at 12:25- noon, will after Sunday start from
Minneapolis at o'clock and ST. Paul at 4:3O n.
M, and will reach Mankato at 7:4O D. m.
New Ulm at $50 p m. and Tracy at 1890 D.
m Returning, this train will arrive here at
$50 and Minneapolis at 1905 a. m.
In the Eastern district the North Wisconsin
train will leave Minneapolis at 94O a. m. and
st. Paul at 1910 a. m. for Duluth and Ash
land, or nearly an hour earlier than the pres
ent schedule, while there is no change in the
returning time.
On the Eastern division the Pacific express.
which now leaves Chicago at 1890 D. M, will
leave at 1910 p. m., and will reach st. Paul
at 1880 a. m. and Minneapolis at 1910 D. m.
number of other minor changes will be
made, but are not yet decided upon definitely
The day trains in both directions have hereto
fore stopped at st. James for dinner. but after
the new schedule goes into effect the south
bound trains will make the stop at Kasota
and the north-bound trains at Heron Lake
Farlor cars will be run on all trains between
st. Paul and Sioux City, connecting at thai
place with sl.epers to and from Kansas Citv
The Omaha people claim that the new service
will be the best and most complete vet giver
the travelling public.
