BURNED TO DEATH.
Seven Horses Cremated in Peter
Rooney's Barn. The Barn
and Contents a Total
Loss.

A fire on Saturday evening rendered
the 35 x 40 foot barn of Peter Rooney
near Trout Run, and all its contents
mass of ruins. The boys had retired
for the night and Mr.. and Mrs. Rooney
were sitting in the house reading, when
Mrs. Rooney suggested that they go to
bed. 1t was about $50 o'clock and she
remarked that the horses were making
an unusual noise in the barn, and as
Mr.. Rooney was getting the lantern to
investigate she looked out towards the
barn and saw the whole inside ablaZe.
The boys and father rushed out and
succeeded in getting two out of the
nine horses in the barn out, and got
another to the door, when it jumped
back and the barn collapsed, cremating
the remaining seven horses and all its
contents. 1t contained besides the
seven horses, 500 bushels of oats, five
sets of harness, ton of hay, 2,6OO-lb.
Fairbanks scale, and three sets of
drags. The barn and everything in it
was entirely destroyed.
1t is mystery how the barn was set
on fire as there had been no lantern or
fire in it for over two days, that the
Rooney family knew of. 1t is supposed
that some stranger was sleeping in the
barn and set it on fire in some way. 1t
was partly insured, but not nearly
enough to cover the loss.

THE "ring'' now are not trying to
defeat DIR. Daubney alone. We believe
that, if they accomplish the defeat of
DIR. Daubney, they will defeat the
whole republican ticket The leaders
of the opposition are now supporting
and working for the democratic candi-
date for representative, as they are for
senator. G. n. Goddard told Mr.
Klemme, our able candidate for repre-
sentative, before the county convention
that if he should receive and accept the
nomination for representative, or if he
would go on the ticket, that he was a
meaner man than DR.. Daubney.
They will not deny tins. Does it
sound like they just wanted to defeat
DR.. Daubney because he is such bad
man, in their political estimation, or
are they trying their best to disrupt
the republican party?

In regard to the transfer of Geo.
Dobney's securities to Dr. Daubney |
made the assignment of one of the Sc
curities in question-a mortgage for
$4,000, and it was signed by Geo. Dob
ney in my presence and acknowledged
by him before me as a Notary Public.
1 told him that it was an absolute as
signment to DIR. Daubney, and he said,
"yes that is what want to do"
have examined the signatures to the
Eikton $1,000 certificate and the Zuck-
mayer $1,000 note and in my opinion
they were made by Geo. Dobney.

Is Mr.. Bailey, n man who received
the nomination for state senator from
this district, and was defeated in Win
neshiek county, but barely elected by
the vote of Howard county, and over
whom as grievous charge as he has
brought against DR.. Daubney hung,
and to this day has not been explained
to our knowledge, the fitting one to
command the great republican party
to depart from its honored principles
ana help to elect free silver democrat
to the senate.

THE Democrats made sad mess OF
their attempt to make the country be-
lieve that the Dingley bill was advan-
tageous to the sugar trust. They recog-
nized the fact that the Wilson law had
given the trust great advantages and
were anxious to put like odium upon
the Dingley bill, but the analysis of
the effect of the new tariff law shows
that their assertions were absolutely
false, and that the measure is an eX-
tremely unsatisfactory one to the trust.

Polls Close at Six.

Those who know the facts should
take it upon themselves to circulate it
thoroughly that polls must close at six
o'clock this year. They will open at
eight and close at six o'clock sharp.
Every voter should see that this is
known in his precinct.

The food supply of Europe is now
estimated to be 1925 ,0OO,O bushels
short of the normal demand. This
shortage is divided as follows: Wheat
800, 900, 900 bushels; rye, 325, 900, 900
bushels; potatoes, 1000, O,OO0, 900 bushels.
This means "business" for the Ameri-
can farmer, and bad business for the
calamity shriekers.

soldiers fight for it and are willing to

Wednesday, March l0-p. m
To-days stock market was extremely dull
and professional, six stocks furnishing about
two-thirds Of the total dealings and with the
exception Of the leading speculative favorites
practically nothing doing. The only pronounced
animation was in Sugar Refining and American
Tobacco the last-named being bought on re-
ports OF a favorable forthcoming statement and
the rumor that plans were being considered by
the management OF the company TO retire the
SO 800 900 outstanding stock scrip Sugar Re-
fning was strong on the regular dividend an
nouncement and It's transactions. with those in
American Tobacco, supplied more than one
third Of those in all stocks. As rule prices
were strong throughout the list. among rail-
way shares Missouri Pacific furnishing note

ted States Rubber. these two stocks losing over
! per cent on professional selling; but else
where final changes when losses. were insignih-
cant. and where advances generally small
fractions The only developments Of Importance
in the day were weaker foreign exchange
market and a tendency toward higher rates in
the money market both Of which ought 10
exert a favorable influence upon the stock mar
ket trading. 1t Is expected in financial circles,
as intimated in this column this morning. that
the demand for money Will soon become active
on account OF probable increased imports of
merchandise. and from the demand for money
by merchants who wish to withdraw their
goods from bond In order 10 take advantage OF
existing rates Of duty. Many banks have, it is
understood received notification from import
ers OF proposed applications for money for the
payment of customs duties. and the opinion in
banking circles to-day was that active
money marke; and hardening OF rates would
soon begin. The supply of lendabe funds held
by the New-York banks is large so that no
furry or stringency is to be feared. Deposits
IN the associated banks according to last weeks
statement. were larger than at any time since
August 1898. and IL is interesting 10 note. in
