are opened. AS the dogs have had nothing
to eat all day one would think that when
the doors were opened they would all rush
for the food like wild beasts, but they
don't. Not a move is made until the at
tendant speaks. He calls each one by name,
starting with the smaller ones, who are
given the first chance; Finally they, are all
fed but the greyhounds; these are left un-
til the last, because their table manners are
so bad. With the exception of the grey
hounds, the dogs all behave very nicely
during the meal.
They seldom fight during a meal and
their table, or, rather. floor manners. are
above reproach. Although fed but once a
day they are in the best of health. Mr..
Gentry said that some of them were even
too fat, when asked why the dogs were linn
tied to one meal a day, and that he consid-
cred that almost every ailment that dogs
were heir to was caused by overlooking the
stomach.
He said: MY dogs all enjoy the best of
health. which I think. is mainly due to their
regular habits, tender treatment and care
full diet" After the meal is over the dogs
are given a little more exercise and then re-
tire for the night to dream of the enormous
hits they have made and the fattering at
tention they have received. One of the at
tendants seats himself outside of the stan
doors and guards the valuable animals
throughout the night.

BATCH OF DAMAGE SUITS.
Some en- Trial and Others Disposed

The personal injury suit of John X.
Taylor against the city was on trial
yesterday before Judge Kelly and g
jury. Mr.. Taylor was driving out
West Seventh street to Fort Smelling
last summer, when his horse took
fright at street car and ran over an
embankment at the side of the road,
and Mr.. Taylor was thrown from his
vehicle and injured. The plaintiff con
tends that the city was guilty of negli-
gence in not providing a railing or
guard that would prevent teams from
running over the embankment.
City Attorney Darragh moved for
Judgment for the city on the pleadingS,
but the motion was denied and the case
was duly tried.
The jury in the case Of James Flynn,
who sued DIR. Archibald Maclaren for
81 900 damages for personal injuries re
plaintiff was run into by DR.. Maclaren s
horse and buggy, returned verdict Tor
the defendant yesterday forenoon.
Judge Otis filed an order yesterday
denying the motion of Mrs. Julie A.
Costello for a new trial Of her personal
injury suit against the city, which re
suited in a verdict for the defendant.
Judge Bum and jury are trying the
suit of Mary Morrow as administrators
of the estate of George Morrow, against
the street railway company. George
Morrow was an emplOye of the COM
pany, and while acting in that capacity
was killed, as the result of an accident
on the cable line near Milton street
This is the second trial Of the case.

and not a corporation or joint stock
company as alleged in the petition.
Therefore the defense insisted that the
Ramsey county court had not acquired
jurisdiction. The motion to quash the
alternative writ was denied by the dis
trict and the defendant appealed to
the supreme court. The latter court
affirmed Judge Egan's decision. The
next step in the case was to apply for
a peremptOry writ, which application
was heard yesterday.
Attorney Farnham, in behalf of the
Adams Express company, as respond
ent, interposed the same objection Of
fered on the former proceeding, name
ly, that the company was a cOpartner-
ship and not a joint stock company or
corporation. that service on it's local
agent was not sufficient and that con-
sequently the court had acquired no
jurisdiction.
Attorney General Childs insisted that
the question as to the jurisdiction Of
the district court had been adjudicated
upon by the supreme court, which held
that the district court had acquired
jurisdiction. There was nothing left
but to try the case on its merits.
Judge Brill agreed with the attorney
generals contention that the question
of Jurisdiction had been settled and
accordingly ordered both parties to
proceed.
The attorney general called as a wit
ness A. K Teisberg. the secretary OF
the state railroad and warehouse COM
mission who tnc+'~cH r. the sending
out and publishing of the notices re
curing express companies to file
schedules, and the refusal of the Adj
ans EXPRESS cnmnanv to obey the re-
quest. The defense objected to the in
PRODUCTION Of any testimony upon the
same ground as before, but the court
overruled the objection.
There was coronarativelv little teeti-
r7onv and at the conclusion of the
bee ring the court decided to grant the
nererontcry writ Of man darns applied
fer which will ho issued today.

Western roads have refused to authorize
a $50 % one-way rate from Chicago to San
francisco, via Laredo or Eagle Pass the
City of Mexico and Ell Paso to be added to
the rates applied via the route travelled in re-
turning. Further consideration of the matter
has been deferred until the next meeting of

An important meeting of the mileage bu-
reau of the Western Passenger association
was held Wednesday. The business before it
was the question of adopting an interchange
able mileage ticket. No definite result was
reached at the conference, but the opinion
is general that the Introduction of an inter
changeable ticket is question Of but
very short time.
