INTERESTING IDAHO CASE.

Decided By Supreme Court.
~
Especial to The Herald,

Boise, Ida, Jan. 1.-THE supreme
court handed down an opinion in the
case of Frank w. Beane. respondent.
VS.. John w. Givens. appellant, from
Bingham county. The judgment of the
court below was reversed.
In many respects this is a very in
teresting case. The plaintiff sued for
$3.50 for services rendered in procuring
the continuance of defendant in the po-
sition of superintendent of the asylum.
500 for services in connections with a
certain desert entry. and 800 for pro-
curing a permit from the department
for defendant to take rock from the
Fort Hall reservation. 1t was claimed
that defendant fraudulently induced
plaintiff and his wife to execute a chat
tel mortgage to him on March 20. 1895
on certain personal property, which was
thte separate property of Mrs. Beane
The jury gave Beane Judgment and
found that the mortgage was not ex-
ecuted for valuable consideration. and
was secured by fraudulent induce
ments
The supreme court fi1ds that the de-
murrer to the complaint should have
been sustained, because Mrs Beane was
proper and necessary party to the
fourth cause of action (relating to the
mortgage). 1t says incidentally: I'VE

Washington, Jan. 1.-THE state de-

complaints alleging that the Spanish
officials in Cuba had been placing OBJ

sion of food and other supplies sent to
Cuba for the relief of the suffering
While the officials believe that there is
no solid foundation for these COM
plants, 4 cablegram has been sent TO
General Lee, directing him to investi-
gate their correctness, and, if neces-
sary, prevent any delays in the land
ing of shipments of stores. if it is pos
sible to do SO.
The following statement was issued
from the state department today:
The call having been made by the
president for money and supplies for
the suffering Cubans, and some doubt
seeming to exist that money and sup
plies donated in response to such call
may not be honestly and imDartialiy
donated TO the suffering people for
whom the donations were made, it is
thought proper to give this public no
tice il the way of an assurance that
all such donations will be distributed
through Consul General Lee and duly
authorized agents cooperating with
him in Cuba. No doubt is entertained
by the president or by the secretary of
state that every dollar and every
article of clothing for the benefit of the
suffering in Cuba will be properly dis
tribuIed"

States district court today Applica-
ton was made by NJ. A. Cisna and
seven other residents of Spokane for
a permanent injunction restraining

ing trip. Mallory after several weeks
prospecting became discouraged and
sold his outfit. He then went to
Alaska where he claims to have To-
Gated some rich property which he
now wants to sell. He offers to re-
fund the money advanced by the pool
but its members demand that he turn
over nine-twelfths of his Klondike
holdings to them.

Seattle, Wash, Jan. 17.-Twenty-two
persons arrived here tonight from
Dawson City on the steamer Corona.
bringing with them a small amount of
gold dust and drafts on the North
American Trading - Transportation
company and the Alaska commercial
company, amounting to between $780,
600 and 81 ,000,0 In the party was one
woman. She is the second woman to
come out this winter.
The amount of drafts brought down
represents the proceeds of sales of
claims to the Cudahy, Healy Yukon &
Klondike Mining company and private
parties.
Relief expeditions can easily reach
the foot of Lake LeBarge. but the
trouble will begin when the Yukon
river is reached. The Yukon is filed
from shore to shore with great ice
ridges from 10 to 20 feet high, the ice
being thrown up in great blocks and
standing in all sorts of angles
The proposed use of RENDERS in this
country is considered entirely imprac-
ticable.
Heavy SnowStorms have occurred this
week on the Chilkoot pass and travel
has been practically impossible for
days at time.

was commenced today before Probate
Judge Blake behind closed doors. The

infamous conduct. Baker frequently
glowered menacingly at her as she re-

She said that she had been kept in
his power by threats, but when she
learned of her fathers purpose to take
her with him to Dakota, going over
land, she determined to leave him. This
she did shortly after Dec 80. He had
