JUDGE GAVE 1T AWAY.
Reason why He Refused New
Trial in the Woodward Case.

Judge Johnson, of the district court,
created a Veritable sensation yeSter-
day. In refusing a new trial of a case
he told of a revelation made to him by
a responsible attorney concerning the
defendants in the case Of Byron Wood
ard against question of professional
secrecy regarding a clients affairs and
statements.
The occurrence was In the course of
the argument being made for a new
trial in the case of Byron Woodward
against Milton w. Stuart and wife.
The original suit was brought to fore
close a mortgage held by the plaintiff
against the defendant. There We're
three mortgage notes given. one of
which, for S100, had been paid by the
defendants. A second payment had
been made. The plaintiffs claimed
that it was of S100, to cancel a second
500 mortgage note, but that by mis-
take the third note of $500 was sent and
delivered to the defendants in lieu Of
the 800 note, which should have been
sent The plaintiff was a cOrrespon-
dent Of the agency of w. A Barnes &
Co. and they sustained the claim of
the plaintiff that the sending of the
S600-note was in error. The defend
ants, on the contrary, at the trial Of
the action, swore that Stuart took $500
in his pocket and went down and de-
livered the money to Barnes & Co, in
payment
Yesterday the defendants, who were
defeated in the trial, appeared before
B Judge Johnson with a motion for a new
trial. A M. Harrison represented the
Stuarts, Judge Belden appearing in
opposition At the conclusion of the
arguments, Judge Johnson denied the
motion to grant new trial without
the slightest hesitation, and then said
that he wished to make Il declaration
with regard to the case.
Some time after this case was de-
cided," said the court, there came to
me an attorney of the highest stand
ing at this bar, and one whose integ-
rity cannot be questioned, who said he
deemed it his dirty to inform me with
regard to certain facts III this case.
lie stated that the defendant came to
him in his office for advice He ated
that he wished to put to him a hypo-
thetical case. This he did but the at
torney declined to give advice on the
statement OF hypothetical facts.
The defendant then told him that
he had paid S100 and been given q $500
note by mistake in place of the 500
IOte that he had the 5000 in his pos
session, that he had demanded a salts
faction Of B9rnes for the $500 note and
that he was being sued by the holder
Of the note in the foreclosure. He told
The attorney that if he would fight and
win The case for him hewould give him
half The attorney, Of course, declined
to participate in any such thing and
the defendant left his office

Mrs. Honorah Gallagher, wife of Jas
Gallagher, custodian of the Carney

terrible mistake yesterday when she
drank composition of turpentine and
carbolic acid under the impression that

Mrs. Gallagher has been an invalid
for years, and for some time she has
been taking wine and iron, prescribed
by her physician, in the attempt to
benefit her health. She kept the medi-
cine on a shelf in the pantry, and il
has been her custom to take 6. dose
before sitting down to her meals.
The medicine was contained in a pint
flask. and, by an unfortunate colnc1-
E dence, Two other bottles of exactly the
same appearance stood by it. One OF
( these bottles was empty; the other
held a very strong combination Of car
bolic acid and turpentine, which had
been used as an insect poison.

After Mrs. Gallagher drank the

The people of Fowler M. E. church
will have a day of both sorrow and
rejoicing today. 1t is seldom that d
church is placed in the peculiar posi-
ton of this church at the present time.
Rev. j. A. Ward, the pastor, has re-
turned from a three months trip in
the East where he secured enough
money to complete the church struc-
ture, and work will commence at once
and be completed in about two months
This is the good news for the church,
and it will serve to enthuse those who
may have become discouraged during
their pastors long absence in the East.
The unwelcome news is DR.. Ward s
announcement that, when the church
is completed, he will sever his connec-
lions with it, and take up his residence
in New York city, where ne Will be as

DEPOT IN ASHES.
Little Falls Suffers Loss of Fully
$4,000.

LITTLE FALLS, Mimi, Oct q
This place was visited by a destructive
fire early this morning. About 2
o'clock the depot employees noticed
smoke Issuing from the walls of the
freight department and within FIVE
minutes the old depot of the Northern
Pacific was a roaring mass of flames.
The building being old and dry burnt
rapidly and within an hour thousands
of dollars had been lost The fire de-
partment was slow in getting to the
fire and when they arrived it was too
late to save anything About twelve
box cars, most of them loaded with
freight, were destroyed. A number of
small buildings around the depot were
burned How the fire started was a
mystery Some think it the work Of
tramps The fire started under the
freight house and the men trying to
save the property were kept back by
explosion of barrels of gasoline. All
the storage in the freight house was
destroyed, as was also most of the
baggage and express in the check
room. The railroad men worked hard
to save the records some of which
were saved, only stopping when the
floor fell in and they barely escaped

would have reached hundred thous-

moved the hundred or more cars, some
of which were on fire. The depot was
full of freight. Among some of those
