 Before the measure could be passed an injunction was filed restraining themA from further action in the mai ger.

It is Said that Harrison & Harrison, the contra ctors, are willing to take the bonds at par and enter competition bids fer the construction Of the reser- voir system It is highly probable that there will be no and Of excitement at the meeting tonight.

ACCESSORY TO MURDER.
Death Penalty Mead Out to a Negro
 Implicated in 2 HOld-Up.

Chicago, Jan. 6.-The conYiction of Robert Howard, colored, for the killing of Frank c. NIetcalfe, who was straIg- led to death by three negro hold-up robbers on he nigh Of November &, has awakened interest among alter neys in the criminal court because Of some Of it's legal features. Howard ywa s indicted and tried as accessory before the fat.
 The inficticn of the death penalty upon Howard as an accessory is the first verdict of the kind in Cock coun- ty, it is said. An accessory belote the fact is subject to the same punishment as q principal. The criminal law of H. linois makes an accessory Def re the fact a principal, but it has besn the custom of juries to deal more lcniently with accessories than with principals.

HEART DISEASE.
Some Facts Regarding the Rapid In
crease of Heart Trouble.

BONO Foct0 Regarding the RAPID 1ns
crease of Heart Trouble.
Heart trouble, at least among the
Americans, is certainly increasing and
while this may be largely due to the ex-
element and worry of American busi-I
ness life, 1t Is more often the result of
weak stomachs. or poor digestion.
Real organic disease is incurable;: but
not one case in q hundred OF heart trou-
BILE 10 organic.
The close relation between heart trout
BILE and poor digestion Is because both
organs are controlled by the same
great nerves, the sympathetic and
pneumogastric.
In another way, also, the heart Is at
fected by the form of poor digestion,
which causes gas and fermentation
from half -digested food. There lis "a
feeling Of oppression and heaviness in
the chest caused by pressure Of the dis
tended stomach on the heart and lungs,
interfering with their action; hence
arises palpitation and short breath.
Foor digestion also poisons the blood,
making 1t thin and watery, which irri-
tates and weakens the heart.
The most sensible treatment for heart
trouble is to improve the digestion and
to insure the prompt assimilation of
food.
This can be done by the regular use
after meals of some safe, pleasant and
effective digestive preparation, like
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, which may
be found at most drug stores. and
which contain valuable, harmless diges-
tive elements in pleasant, convenient
form.
1t is safe to say that the regular per-
sistent use OF Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets at meal time will cure any form OF
stomach trouble except cancer of the
stomach.
Full-sized package of these tablets
sold by druggists at 90 cents. Little

Ing on Important Evidence.
Clinton, Oct. 19.-1nspector Kalas, of
Chicago, arrived in Clinton yesterday
and has been in consultation
with Deputy Sheriff Moran and officers
of the local police department.. 1t is
understood that he is investigating the
story that S. F. Miller claims to know
the Whereabouts of the valuables stolen
from the Northwestern train which
was held up last Friday night. Miller
asserted yesterday that he could locate
$4,000 of the stolen money. The ex-
press company's officials have not
made any deal with him yet.
The man who rode across the bridge
here last Saturday night about $50
bought a ticket for Des Moines. Rob-
ert Troy, horseman and stock buyer
residing near Dewitt, in this county,
is the man who rode across the bridge
and left his pony at Champlin Bros
livery stable. He had been at Cordoya,
ILL.,, where he sold some horses, and
missing the boat, rode to Clinton, from
where he took the train to his home. OF
course he is not suspected of any con-
nection with the train hold-up.
Mr.. Troy had no grip, and his APP
pearance is not that of a man who pur-
chased the ticket for Des Moines. The
horse was sent for by him yesterday.
The man who left here for Des Moines
had dark hair and was of corpulent
build, whereas Mr.. Troy is light and
rather spare. Inspector Ilalas learned
these facts last night.
Miller, the man who claims to know
the hiding place of the money, will be
questioned further today.
| Chicago, Oct. 19-Special Agent
lHartshorn, OF the American Express
Company, left Chicago last night for

velopments might be looked for in the
west at an early date, the suspicious
movements of the man who rode into
Clinton on Saturday morning on a
faded mustang having caused all the

Special Agent Riley, chief of the Chi

X
Sioux City, Oct. NV l. Buchanan |
United States minister to the Argentine |
republic. has confirmed the rumor that
he has rendered his resignation from
that Office to President Mckinley
Some time ago 1T was announced that
Mr., Buchanan had been rendered the
director generalship of the Pan Ameri-
can exposition to be held at Buffalo, N
T., in 1901. 1t is now officially an
nounced that he has accepted the ten

begin his duties on Nov L.
Recently another tlatterng offer came
to him. There has been a big company

dency of which was offered Mr. Blu

with the Buffalo exposition people. he
decided not to accept this very fatter-
ing proposal which probably would
have meant life position at very

Mr. Buchanan has been very popular
with the South American people with
whom he has associated himself for a
number of years. AS an evidence of the
,esteem in which he has been held by the
government it might be stated that he
was appointed by Grover Cleveland, Mr..
, Buchanan being staunch democrat,
but that when President Mckinley
came into power he refused to accept
; his resignation and appointed him to
remain as minister of Argentine.
Mr.. Buchanan is Sioux City man,
having come here in 1852. He entered

JOINT RATE CASE DECISION.

pOrtant Decision.
Des Moines, oct. 19.-The supreme
court on Wednesday afternoon affirmed
the hay rate cases from northwest
Iowa appealed to the court from Pot
county by the railroads
the Sioux City & Pacific and North
western. The action was brought by
four persons, j. r. Blair, II. Holloway,
A. Brown and G.. w. Mccoy. to re-
cover unreasonable, extortionate and
illegal freight charges on hay shipped
over the roads named from Whiting to
Council Bluffs. Though Judge Deemer
wrote the opinion, he and Laid dissent
from the opinion of the majority. The
court modifies the judgment by limiting
the recovery to the treble damages and
excluding the interest, for which the
statute is penal. The court holds that
there is law against discrimination
when railroads voluntarily establish
joint rates, and that they must apply
the Joint rates to all shippers and
towns within the points between which
the rate is established.
The decision is an important one.
Attorney j. C. McCabe, of Harl & Me-
Cabe, Council Bluffs, who handled the
case, associated with Spencer Smith
for the shippers, was in town yesterday
and, after looking over the opinion. ex-
pressed great satisfaction with it
