The strike on Stewart river is attracting
large crowds from Dawson. The late
steamers to come up the river had more
than double the number OF passengers for
Stewart river that they had for White

New Trial -Stubbornly Contested.

Charles Lind was Yesterday given $4,000
by jury of his peers to compensate him
for the loss of an arm while working for

with the verdict in hand.
The trial of the case occupied four days

his case was eoquentlv contended for bv
Judge Pratt, He plead with the jury for
substantial verdict.
The case for the defense was ably and
skiluly handled by Judge VIM, who
promptly gave notice of motion for a
new trial when the verdict was announced.
The case was tried last summer and the res
suit was disagreement The amount sued
for was $4,000.
The two points which were most holly
contested in the case were as to whether
Lind had contributed to the negligence
which resulted in his injury or whether
the men whom it was alleged failed to
give notice of the firing of the blast from
which the rock was hurled that caused the
accident were fellow servants or vice -prin>
cipaIs. On both points it was necessary
for the jury to find for the plaintiff, before

"What Catholics do dot believe" Father
Turnell intends to supplement that dis

in creatures who cannot hear their praYers3
Do Catholics want state and church to be

The feud which grew out of Mrs.
Moore's dog poisoning case broke out anew
Yesterday. The resat was the killing of
three more dogs and the arrest of Ed.
Quinn charged with pointing gun at
mormon Joe" Moore. Two of the dead
dogs belonged to Ed. Quinn, and thew died
of poison on his premises at Ninth avenue
Yesterday morning. The other was the
property of Joe Moore, and it was shot by
Ed. Quinn, who believed that his neigh
bors, the Moores. had caused the death of
his two valuable dogs in the same manner
as the two he had lost some time ago.
There were quit lively scenes about the
Moore premises for time Yesterday even
ing if reports be true. While the stories of
Moore and Quinn differ as t. the particu-
lars, the agreed facts are that Ed Quinn
had become convinced that the Moores had
committed the second attack upon his dogs
with poison. He went home from down
town and seeing Moore's dog in the ward,
shot him through the fence with a
revolver. Two shots were fired, Mrs.
Moore, who saw the shooting. says that
Quinn told her to send the old man out
and he would do him. Moore claims hat
he came out at this time and Quinn point
the gun at him.
This story is emphatically denied by
Quinn, who admits shooting the dog, but
denies that he made the remark attributed
to him bv Mrs. Moore or that he pointed
the gun at Moore.
At the time of the shooting, Judge Sehl-
brede was notified bv telephone that Quinn

BUFFALO BAYOU SHIP CHANNEL PROJECT
VIII Probably Claim Some OF His
Attention.-Worls IN the Interest
Of Jewish Literature.

Galveston, Texas, April 3.--The project
submitted by Colonel Richie for the i'm
proyement OF Buffalo bayou has been re-
turned from Washington. The depart
ment approved the project except that
portion Of it requiring plling to be placed
on both sides OF the channel to facilitate
the construction of dyke. Colonel Richie
in his project recommended the pling to
be placed and the material taken from the
channel be placed behind the piling on tho
shore sides. In this way the excavations
would be kept from being washed back
into tho channel whenever there is a rise.
The department reserves $4,000 for such
surveys and maintenance above Morgan's
cut as may be subsequently authorized.
Colonel Robert OF the engineer corps Is
expected here in few days, and it is
very likely that the whole matter will
again be gone over.
As regards the deepening OF the bar at
Point Isabel it is very likely that Colonel
Richie will recommend and send TO WASH
ington for approval the bid OF Charles
Clarke Co.. who asked $4,000 for the
risk OF the trip and 5000 per day for the
work. The work is intended for tempo
rary Improvement only, and the urgency
of having the bar deepened is very great

contract for taking out the old jetty at
