JOHN HARNOIs' WAR STORY
How He Prevented a Raid into Northeas
Kansas.

From the St. Joseph Herald:
There is not a person residing in ST
Joseph who does not know Captain Jollr
Harnois for many years connected witt
the government service here as gaugel
for this district, and now clerk of Judge
| Lyon court. During the late war Cap
tain Harnois had many stirring adven-
lures and did much good service for the
government. One act of daring which
ne committed and which remained a
mystery was cleared up the other day by
a story told, which will be readily recog-
nized by many st. Joseph people who
We're cogniZa1t of the focts at the time
but who will not know until they read
this article who the party was who pre-
vented a raid into Kansas which would
no doubt have caused great loss and
disaster. The story comes we'll auti1en-
ticated and is deeply interesting to those
who were here during the time of the
border troubles.
I'm 1856, when Mr.. Harnois was IL
years OF age, his father lived in what
was then the northern part of St. Joseph
somewhere about Blacksnake creek. and
not far from the river. There was a
| blacksmith shop not fari from the Har-
nois residence. and a livery stable in
the neighborhood, the latter kept by G..
NJ. Gillham, who afterwards kept a Hv-
cry stable in Troy and was run oft early
in the war because of his southern SEN
timents and acts. Young Harnois. ac-
cording to boy nature, lounged a good
deal about the blacksmith shop. One
day while he was there three men. Gill

PRAYING FOR RAIN
THIS WAS THE BURDEN OF THE
PETITION 0F FARMERS.

Some Claimed That the Present Hot
Weather had Cut the Corn Crop nj
Least 5 Per Cent and That the Cereal
Would Not be as Good as Predicted
The Market for Corn. Owing to the Re
ports, WAS Rather of q BuliIsh Nature
and Better Prices Were Predicted
Fruit and Vegetable Organization.
Farmers were met yesterday from
every portion of the county and all said
that the recent hot wea Their had greatly
injured the growing corn crop. and that
the yield would be nothing like as large
as had been estimated and sent out
In many places it was reported that
corn was badly fired and while the early
corn crop was safe. yet it would not be
| filed out as would have been the case
had the hot weather not set in.
| 1t was generally conceded that farm
ers who had sold their corn had made
a mistake and that the price would GER
| tainly raise. Many had reports from
| Oklahoma and other points in Kansas
saying that the crop had been greatly
| where the surface was underlaid with
| what is known as hardpan subsoil. One
man said that he had travelled in a
buggy through Harvey. Reno and Sedg-
| wick counties and he felt safe in max
ing the prediction that the corn crop
had been injured at least Is per cent by
the hot, dry weather Of the past ten
days.
1t was reported that the drouth had
taken the corn crop in Arkansas and
in many parts of Missouri, and in fact
all reports yesterday in corn circles
were Of bullish nature, and it was
predicted that if the railroads did not
agree to raise the rates that a better
price would be paid for corn within the
next ten days than at the present time.
All the railroads are taxed to their
full capacity to handle the moving crop
and the demand is greatly increased for
both export and st. Louis and Men,
phis points. Two new buyers were up
on the market yesterday, who said that
a strong delegation from interior Texas
points had been appointed to visit the
traffic association for the purpose OF
securing rates for their section of the
state in the same ratio as had been
given for export at Galveston.
Notwithstanding the dry, hot weather
Sedgwick county will undoubtedly har-
vest the greatest corn crop this year in
its history. In many places corn is be-
ing cut for fodder and farmers are very
busy. Owing to the dry weather there
is but little fall blowing being done
The dry weather is proving beneficial
to the grape crop, but it is said that
late apples are being injured The
great cry made by farmers yesterday
was for rain and for freight rates which
would place them in connection with
the cattle feeders of Texas well as to
the exporting station.
It was predicted on all sides that in
case of rain and cooler weather that
shipping would be largely increased and
a general sentiment was expressed to

THE SUPREME COURT.
Cases Argued and Submitted pin.
ions Handed Down in Two Cases
Under Amusement.

In the New Mexico supreme court yes
terday, the petition for writ of habeas
corpus in re Jose T. Jaramillo was ar
gued and submitted. W. B. Childers ap-
peared for the petioner and Neill B.
Field resisted the same.
The cause of Andrew B. Laird, plaintiff
in error, vs.. Elizabeth Upton ct al, de-
PENDANTS in error, was also argued and
submitted. W. B. Childers represented
Laird and James s. Fielder appeared for
the defendant.
In the matter of the United States
VS.. Joseph Routledge, appeal from
lst judicial district, an opinion was
handed down by Judge Collier reversing
the Judgment of the court below and re-
handing the case for new trial. Judges
Smith, Hamilton and Bantz concurred
and Judge Laughlin dissented.
Judge Collier also handed down an
opinion remanding the case of The Ter
ritory vs.. Pat. Carmody, convicted of
murder, for new trial. Judges Haml-
ton and Bantz concurred and Judges
Smith and Laughlin dissented.
In answer to several queries, the New
MEXICAN begs leave to explain that the
status of the Borrego murder case before
the supreme court is precisely the same
as it would have been if Solicitor General
Victory had not made the motion to
quash the writ of error, AMI the state
mentused in this report yesterday that the
cause would be "heard on it's merits" on
August II meant simply that the supreme
court would on that day begin review
of the entire record in the court below as
embraced in the writ of error and finally
pass upon the questions raised by the
defendants as to whether errors were
made in the trial of the case in the court
below sufficient to require that the de-
PENDANTS should be granted new trial.

GREETING TO BRYAN.
The Bryan Democratic silver Club Of
the Oldest Capital in America to
the Next President Of the

The Bryan Democratic Silver club, OF
Santa Fe county, yesterday sent the sub
joined greeting to Hon William Jen-
nings Bryan at Lincoln, Neb.:
Headquarters of the Bryan Silver Dem
ocratic Club, of Santa Fe, N. M.
Santa Fe, N. NJ, Aug. 4, 1896. }
The Hon. William J. Bryan. the nil DIES 2erar
of Democracy, Lincoln, Neb.
Sir:-On this trip passengers are al
lowed to stand upon the platform.
The territorial disfranchisement for
bids our casting vote for you, but moth
ing born from the loins of legislative
neglect can prevent the murmuring of a
thousand benedictions upon your ambi-
ton, which is ours, nor untold maledic-
tions for the confusion of your enemies,
who are ours also.
Would to God we could write "21" upon
the soles of our boots, and thus by an
illusion, at least, claim to be the voting
"twenty.one." But until the Chicago
platform comes out and sits triumphant
ly upon the forehead of our statutes, we
must remain in pupilage. Yet the hearts
that are with you groan and rejoice when
there is occasion.
We recognize in you the synonym of
young Democracy, and, though we shiver
in the cold glance cast upon the unwel-
come child, though by failure of law we
can not register our votes and have them
counted, we shall keep the fires burning
on the Rockies. Being ourselves unable
to smite the rock, we long to hold up the
arm of our Moses.
We rejoice in the transportation of
Bryan, Democracy and silver, and silver
Dem ocracy and Bryan, and believe that
between Bryan and silver, Democracy
will be taken care of.
Sir, the Bryan Silver Democratic club
sends you greeting in the advance of
victory, in the same spirit with which we
would crown you with bays after its &C.
plishment.
Timorous young Ambition and veteran
Hope alike converge to you: they hear
your words and profit. Wounded Labor,
rising upon the elbow of Hope upon the
battle-felds of the north, east, south and
west, watch you as you pass like bene-
dictine among the unfortunate, and the
parched lips of Industry cry aloud your
name.
Phoenix-like you rise from the ashes
of cremated humanity, and fling re-awak-
ening among the people.

Chatting a Visitor.


Mr.. l. p. Moore, of Fort Worth, was at
the Exchange this morning en- route to
the Sulphur hot springs, via Espanola.
This is his second visit in a few months
to those springs, which, he declares, are
not to be equaled in their curative
properties to any springs in the world.
Mr.. Moore had arrangements made for
bringing with him ten or a dozen bust
ness men from Fort Worth ON this trip,
but the Texans have gone so wild over
politics that none of them could get
away. The gentleman says that past
election business paralysis has cut deep
in Texas and business is at low ebb as
result. The great mercantile houses
are either discharging their employees or
laying them off for thirty or sixty days;
the railroads are doing likewise and he
thinks little else than politics will absorb
attention everywhere throughout the
country from now until November.
