IMPORTANT DECISION.
Mart Patrie Receivers Damages for Stock
Killed on Railroad Track.

Secretary OF State OF Mart Patrie
has won victory in the Supreme
Court, judgment secured by him
against the Oregon Short Line for
1920 for horses killed on the track
near Market Lake being affirmed.
The question involved In the case
was In relation to the obligation Of the
railroad company to keep its right-of.
way fenced where IL passes through
private land that is unenclosed.
a part of the opinion is AZ follows,
"The statute declares that railroad
corporation must make and maintain O
good and sufficient fence, on either or
both sides of their track or property,
wherever the line of road passes
through or along about upon or con-
tiguous to private property or enclosed
land in the actual possession Of another.
'The record shows that said track
passes through private property and
we think the statute as applied to the
facts OF this case Is too clear to require
any construction. To hold that it does
not require the defendant corporation,
to fence its track except when and
where private person may fence his
land would be injecting language into
said section that is not found there and
could not be put there by fair implica-
tion and reasonable construction.
1--WE think the record fairly shows
that If the said track has been fenced
where 1t passes through said sections
%, 30 and II, said horses would not
have been killed. 1t may be said that
building fence on the east side of said
track where 1t passes through said pri-
vate property would be no protection to
stock. That stock could pass around
the ends OF such fence and get upon the
track. The fencing of railroad track
when required by statue where 1t pas
ses through private property as In this
case implies the construction of suff!c-
lent cattle guards at the ends OF such
fences.
'Section 3, Elliot on Railroad, Sec
tion 1893 and notes.
"We think the record shows that said
horses would not have been killed where
and when they were killed If the de-
had maintained such fence as
the law requires.
ut is conteDded by the counsel for
the appellant that there Is no proof
that said horses came upon the track
at point where the company was re-
CURED TO fence.
ut Is admitted that they were killed
On the track Mt points where 1t was the
duty to fence aud the presumption Is in
The absence Of proof Is that the animals
same upon the track at such point.

A FIERCE ENGAGEMENT.
The Filipinoes Charge the U.
S. Line and Are Repulsed.
The Conflict Commenced Saturday Night
at S:45 and Continued Much Of Sunday
and Resulted in Great Slaughter to
the Fillpinoes, and Also In the Death Of
Many Of Our Brave BOYS.

Many Of Our Brave Boys.
MANILA, P. l., Feb. S.-The American
troops were fired upon by the Filipino
insurgents Saturday evening at S:45.
Three daring Filipinoes dashed past
the Nebraska regiment at Santa Mesa,
but retired when challenged. They
repeated the experiment, and on the
third attempt Corporal Greeley chal-
lenged the Filipinoes and then fired,
killing one of them and wounding an
other. Almost Immediately the Fill
Pine line from Caloocan to Santa Mesa
commenced an Intellectual fusillade.
The Nebraska, Montana and North
Dokota outposts replied and held their
ground until reinforcements arrived,
the Filipinoes in the meantime con-
contrasting at three points, Caloocan,
Gagalan and Santa Mesa.
About o'clock the Filipinoes opened
hot fire from all three places simulta-
neously, supplemented by the fire of
two siege guns at Balik-Balik and by
advancing skirmishers from Pacca and
Pandacan.
The Americans responded with a
CALLING fire, but owing to the darkness
were unable to determine its effect.
The Utah light artillery finally silenced
the native battery.
The engagement lasted over an hour.
The U. S. cruiser Charleston and the
gunboat Concord, also opened fire from
their secondary batteries on the Fill
pinoes' position at Caloocan.
AT 2:45 there was another fusillade
along the entire line, and the Z. S.
monitor Monadnock opened fire on the
enemy from of Malate.
With daylight the Americans ad-
vanced, the California and Washington
regiments making splendid charge
and driving the Filipinoes from the
works at Pace and Santa Mesa. The
Nebraska regiment captured several
prisoners and one howitzer and very
strong position at the reservoir, which
Is connected with the waterworks.
There was intermittent firing at var
ious points all day long. The losses of
the Filipinoes cannot be estimated at
present, but they are known to be con-
siderable. The American losses are 20
men killed and 125 wounded
The Ygorates, armed with bows and
arrows made stubborn fight in the
face of a hot artillery fire and left many
dead on the field.
Several attempts were made during
the evening to assassinate Amer
lean officers.
General Otis telegraphs from Manila
that our casualties thus far are esti-
mated at l75, very few fatal. He SAYS
our troops are enthusiastic and fighting
fearlessly.
The navy did splendid execution on
the TANKS OF the enemy.
Dewey reports no casualties to his
squadron.

Why Cervera Delayed His Rush Till
SUNDAY,

Rear Admiral Schley at a reception
the other night, in commenting on the
great sea fight off Santiago, called at
tentlon to a singular coincidence
that marked the Saturday night before
Cervera's fatal sortle, and that sealed
the doom of his feet. It was Cervera' S
intention to attempt an escape in
the darkness of night. When almost
ready to give the starting order, the
black sky at the entrance to the har-
bor was suddenly lit up by the burning
OF a Spanish blOckhOuse by some ad-
Venturous Cubans. AS the light Of
this died down, that of another loomed
up, and the rise and fall of light was
continued until six blockhOuses had
been burned. The unusual spectacle
attracted the attention of every man
on the American fleet, but no one knew
its import
To Admiral Cervera the successive
flames had a startling meaning, for he
Interpreted them 10 be a signal from
tho Cubans to the American feet that
the Spaniards had six vessels in the
harbor. Acting on this. he decided to
postpone the attempt to escape till the
next morning. Had he not changed
his mind he would have found the
American fleet as fully prepared for
him on Saturday night as it was on
Sunday morning, owing to the myst .
GUS lights beyond the MORO. .-Phila-

Douglas Coming to the Front.

Chillicothe, o., May 23.-Douglas's
signal victory in Meigs county yester-
day, where he secured the entire dele
cation, gives him the solid support of
the eleventh Congressional District as
well as many counties outside of 1t.
During the past few days, since Doug
las has come into such prominence.
the Daugherty and Nash factions have
been makingde5perate efforts to secure
Meigs county, in order to take away
from Douglas the prestige of having
the solid support of his congressional
district. Douglass friends in Meigs
were fully aware of the effort which
was made to down him there, and
come to the rescue in great shape and
left no doubt as to the complexion of
the delegation.
Douglass managers allege that A
surprise is in store for the convention
when Lucas count comes to cast Its
vote at the convention, and TWO or
three other counties will also be can
tured by that time. They are getting
more certain every day that Douglas
will be the ultimate choice of the con-
vention. Doulas is con. .nuing his
campaign along the same lines which
have marked 1t from the first. and
where he cannot secure a delegation to
vote for him on the first ballot he
makes sure that it will go to him for
second choice.

For artistic Chicago"

Chicago, May 23.-The protest OF
Henry B. Fuller, the author, against
inartistic Chicago was taken up today
by the Civil Committee of the League
of Cook County Clubs at the Palmer
House. The dozen women present re-
solved to take immediate action
against advertisers who disfigure the
city with Objectionable signs.
The delegates are to begin their cru
sade mildly. Each member of the com
miu.ee has been asked to call on ad-
Vertisers, who proclaim the excellence
of their wares on ungainly signboards,
and to ask them to remove the Oh
jectiOnable signs.
They will explain to these men that
their business will be benefited more
by the removal of the disfigurlng signs
than by extensive advertising in It's
manner. Failing in this the members
of the committee will take steps to
boycott the obstinate advertisers.
In explaining what is considered OBJ
jectionable in signboards, Mrs Charles
Henrotin, Chairman of the committee,
said:
I'VE are not taking up especially the
cry of the women of a neighboring
city who denounced the advertisers
who use pictures of women in their
signs. Neither have we been influenc-
ed particularly by tine ubterances of
Mr.. Fuller, the author, but we are de-
termined to have an artistic Chicago
when our work is completed:
