Seeing our little town not rep.
resented in the columns of the
dear old Courier, we venture TO
offer just few items of interest.
Seems we are not taking as much
interest in our correspondence as
we should. Perhaps we are all
busy searching its columns and
those of other papers for any news
from the far away war. Seems as
though England is having her
hands full trying to conquer the
Beers, Or some may be looking
and listening for news from the
elections in Ohio aud Kentucky.
Well, some one will be beaten
and who it is we will soon know.

Washington, Jan. Is. - The war in
vestigating commission yesterday took
prompt action on the sensational tes-
timony submitted to it by Cen Eagan
and sent the statement incorporating
his testimony back to him with the
privilege Of resubmitting it if he chose
to revise its language. Further than
this the commission determined it
could not and should not proceed. The
commission regrets that Gen. Eagan
proceeded as far as he did. and it is
explained that the vituperative nature
of the testimony was u complete sur
prise to the commission, and that but
for the rapidity with which Gen
Pagan read his long statement and the
absorbing vehemence of it's delivery
he would have been checked at the
time.
There was no abatement in the in
terest exhibited here in all the Incl
dents connected with Gen. Eagans
bitter attack. AS might have been eX-
pected matter Of this official conse-
quence was sure to attract the atten-
ton Of the president. and IN conse-
quence the greater part Of tie session
Of the cabinet was given up to its con-
sideration. The principals in the con-
troversy. Generals Miles and Eagan,
contributed little during the day to
the controversy. The letter of the
commission returning Gen. Eagan's
statement did not indicate positively
whether or not they will r::-2ive 1t as
evidence, even though the
Objectionable Language
was excised. nor did Gen. Eagan him
self give any sign of any intention on
his part to avail himself of the offer
made by the board. His friends did
not hesitate to Intimate that he would
expunge the Objectionable language.
but he would say nothing for himself,
and any intimation on that score must
be obtained from the board itself. The
war department officials are not yet
clear as to what would be the effect
Of a withdrawal or modification of the
statement One element holds that,
officially. the record failing to show
any Objectionable language be-
ing used there was no legal offense.
Another takes the view that While the
amendment Of the statement would
mitigate Gen. Eagan's offense it would
not wipe it out Another aspect OF the
case is the bringing forward of the
plea of exemption which was guaran-
teed in the name of the president to
all witnesses before the board from
what they might say, but again the
officials are divided, and this was also
true of the members Of the cabinet as
to whether the exemption could be
claimed in this particular case.
Meanwhile Gen. Miles is apparently
waiting for the war department to act,
taking the position that it is incum-
bent upon it and the war commission
to protect the army from such attacks.

And a Clever Scheme to Steal Twen-

trated.
La Crosse. Wis, Jan. ia bold at
tempt to steal twenty-one cars of
wheat was nipped in the bud by clever
detective work and prompt and de-
cisive action on the part of officials of
the Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul
railway. The grain was mostly the
property Of the s. Y. Hyde Elevator
company and the w. w. Cargill COM
pany of this city and the cars were
diverted from their original consignees
by the substitution of bogus waybills.
1t appears just about the time the deal
was nearing contamination the swim
dlel's weakened. Had the perpetrators
been successful in carrying out their
clever scheme it would have made
them $4,000 richer. Supt. Wilbert
Irwin and Freight Claim Agent H. r.
Elliott are now engaged on the case.
They have stopped all loss either to
the railroad company or the original
shippers and expect to have the en-
tire gang Of fraudulent waybill work
ers under arrest soon.

New sPaynesville, Mimi. Jan. 10. "a.
An interesting and somewhat 9en6l-

ago resident of Roseville went 70
Chicago to get work, leaving his wife
and family In the village Of Hawick,
town of Roseville. All was presumably
well between husband and wife. Not
many days ago the husband returned
from Chicago to find his wife the wife
of another man and living in North
Dakota. An examination of the rec
ords of the court showed that di-
vorce had been obtained on the ground
Of failure to support. The returning
husband was wrotl and at once
caused warrants to be issued for the
arrest of his wife and her new hus-
band charging them with perjury.
The warrants We're served and the
new husband procured bail, but the
wife. being unable to procure bail.
now awaits her trial at the coming
tern
