RAISE OBJECTIONS.
somers Damage Gases May MOI be Tried
at Coming Court Term.

somers Damage Cases May NOT be Tried
at Coming court Term.
The damage suits brought by Lillian
Seery against half a dozen well known
men in the town of Somers made their
first appearance in judicial circles this
morning, at which time the defendants
had been subpoenaed to appear before
Court Commissioner Hastings to be eX-
amined as to the defense they intended
to make under section 1895 Of the
state laws. The hour came and went
but not a single one of the six defend
ants put in an appearance. Their
attorneys, James Cavanagh and Peter
Fisher, however, appeared and asked
that the case be thrown out, alleging
that subroenas were issued in an
irregular manner. The mistake made
in the preparation of these papers was
a clerical one, and made them read
" In the Racine Circuit Court0 instead
of " In the Kenosha Circuit Court,
the error being in the title.
The court commissioner ruled against
the defendants and refused to throw
the case out of court. He also refused
to issue an order citing the men to ap-
pear for contempt. The matter will
now be brought before Judge Fish and
he will decide on the subject of the
legality of the subpHnas. The cases
have caused a great deal of interest
and were the outgrowth of the Stone
braker divorce scandal.

Removal
Racine, Wis, Sept. 8 Employees of
the j. I. Case T. NJ. company and citi-
zens are afraid that the immense
threshing machine plant will leave Ra-
cine. The company has received a big
offer from ST. Paul and another from
parties near Waukegan, I'll. The com
pany want to make their plant mod
ern one and need more room, and in
order to do it must have the possession
of certain streets. The council refuse
to give the streets and now the en-
ployees believe that the company may
90 away. The Business Mems AssO-
citation has been appealed to and re-
forred the matter to committee.
Everything possible will be done to
keep the big plant here. Should it

employment and at least $4,000 a
month taken from the city.

lie Statement.

lie Statement.
Mr.. Editor: As a large number of
people, both city officials and private
individuals, have seen fit to concern
themselves about the affairs Of the
Commercial Hotel and to make derOg-
atory statements about the manage
ment of the place and the property, as
owner of the hotel, I desire, through
the columns of your paper, to let the
general public know what l think
about the whole business.
After inquiring of several of the city
officials why they did not take some
official action, and not confne them
selves to running about the streets and
grinning and talking, | went to the
Chief of Police and put similar ques-
ton TO him The answer | got from
our efficient Chief was this: We have
a dozen affdavits in hand against the
people who run the Commercial Hotel,
and I will give you $25 if you can prove
to me that these people are married. +"
This morning I showed to our efficient
Chief the marriage certificate of James
Walter Rose and Celia Lovy, the man
and wife who manage the Commercial
Hotel, and demanded the $25. Our
efficient Chief took two old, we'll worn
Jack knives from his pocket and offered
them to me in settlement, saying, that
that was all be was worth. [ think
the Chief over estimated his value.
Now, if there is anything in this
business, it is high time that the city
went to work and made a thorough in
vestigation. We don't want talk, talk
and little tattle, but action. If the
efficient Chief of Police can't act, get
another, or appoint committee that
can do something. If there is nothing
in the charges, then let us have an end
of this business and that now.

a CAvALIE2 OF FRANCE.
william owens Company Produce a New
Romantic Drama

Romantic Drama.
The William Owen Company closed
their season at the Rhode opera house
Thursday evening with the production
of a new romantic drama, entitled, A
Cavalier of France, by Espy Williams.
The play was a good one-indeed,
all plays whose plot is laid in the stir
ring times of Catherine De Medici are
so filed with the French romantic
spirit that they cannot fail but COM
mand a great interest from a crowd
which is ever pleased by the stories of
brave warriors and beautiful women.
The play reminds one of Weyman and
the delightful flavor which is so dis
tinctly a characteristic of the Red
Robe and other French romantic
dramas finds a fine field for its display
in the characters of A Cavalier of
France" Rene De Froisac is a typi-
cal soldier of fortune wearing his heart
on his sleeve and true to the service of
his king. The controlling interest of
the play centers around the life and
love of Rene and Gabrielle, lady Of
France, and these two characters we're
presented by Mr.. Owen and Miss Rey-
nolds in a very pleasing manner. Miss
Reynolds as Gabrielle was especially
good and her work in the field of
romanticism was exceedingly clever.
AS De Froiaac Mr.. Owen did very
we'll, but bis work was not up to the
standard set by the gentleman in the
two preceding nights. The work of
the remainder of the company was
good, but bore evidence of lack of
preparation. For a first production
the play went off very smoothly and
" A Cavalier of France" will undoubt-
eddy prove to be a favOrite in the
repertoire of the company.

A BAD ACCIDENT.
Little Horde Junkers Loses Leg While

PETER RHODE

Playing in the Malt House.
Just after the NEWS went to press
last evening little Horde Junkers, the
7 year old son of Mr.. and Mrs. James
Junkers, met with a horrible accident
which resulted in causing his right leg
to be amputated just above the knee.
The little boy, together with COM
panion named Anderson, had been
rolling a hoop and had gone into the
malt house. Here they we're warned to
keep away from the machinery and
started to run out of the building when
Horde slipped and fell and his foot
struck in one of the c0nveyors used for
carrying the grain from one floor of the
elevator to the others. His cries of
pain soon caught the attention of
Peter Mink, who was working in the
room, and the machinery was reversed
as soon as possible and in time to save
the life of the child. However, his
foot and leg were mangled in horrible
manner, the flesh being entirely torn
from the bones, which were crushed
and broken. He was taken to the
home of his parents on North Chicago
street, where Drs, Farr, Kimball and
Andre found it necessary to amputate
the leg just above the knee. The
parents of the little fellow are over
