VETERAN HURT IN A RUNAWAY.
Team OF Colts Knocks Him Down and
Wheels Pass Over Him.

Abba, May 4.-George w. Newcumb,
an old soldier resident of Abba, was
severely injured in a runaway Tues
day evening. Charles Mahin had driv-
en- team of colts and tied them liz
front of Mr.. Newcumb's residence.
When the electric lights were turned
on the team became frightened and
one of the horses broke loose. Mr..
Newcumb went to the team and UNI
tied the other animal, with the in
tention of taking the team to the
shade of building. He had no more
than united the animal, when the
horses began to plunge, knocked Mr..
Newcumb down, broke loose and the
wheels passed over the breast of the
aged gentleman, and he was carried
home unconscious, and since then he
has been unable to partake of any
thing to eat. When the team got
loose they ran in the direction of
home, and about mile out from
town one OF the horses fell in a ditch
and was injured badly. The other be-
came tangled in the harness, and
they were found in that condition.
The buggy was demolished.

Davenport, May 4-The United Chris

tive part in the presidential election, as
it has completed ticket and prepared
platform epitomizing its views after
The principal work at the Rock Island
convention Wednesday was the prepa-
ration of the platform. The conven-
ton did not complete its labors until
o'clock, and when it did adjourn it had
placed this ticket in nomination for
the consideration of the voters at the
November election
The Ticket.
For president-Rev. S. c. Swallow, OF
Pennsylvania.
For vice president G. Woolley,
of Illinois.
w. r. Renkert, of this city, was in
high favor with the delegates to this
convention, and some of his enthusiasts
tic admirers were anxious that he
should be made the party's candidate
for the presidency. His modesty, how
ever, stood in the way, and he refused
to be considered in connection with the
honor Rev. G. M. Sheldon, of Topeka
fame, and Thomas McClements. of
Morning Sun, Iowa, were also men
toned for the presidential nomination
but the convention was stampeded to
the Fighting Parson" of Pennsylvania
when his name was mentioned. The
same fervor was repeated when Mr..
Woolley, of Chicago, was proposed as
his running mate. w. r. Benkert was
not permitted to escape without shar-
ing in the honors, and accordingly he
was elected chairman of the national
committee. Rev. w. r.. Struble, of Chi
cago, was elected secretary, and A. ID.
Martin, of Rock Island, treasurer. The
executive committee was instructed to
fill any vacancy that might occur on
the ticketsas also prepare a special adj
dress to the public, while another res
olution advocated the esta blishment of
a Christian daily to be published stimuli

Indian Horse TIieve. Captured.

Mandan, n. D., May 4.-A number of
Indian. horse thieves, headed by Frank
Black Hawk, have been arrested. They
have been operating for over six
months on the reservation. They
changed brands and sold the horses in
South Dakota. Black Hawk was one
of the Indians implicated in the Spicer
murder in 1897, and was set free be-
cause the two Indian boys who charg-
ed him with the offense were lynched
before Black Hawks trial. The Indi-
ans have stolen between go and 100
horses.

REACTION NECESSARY.
Business Must Adjust Itself to New Con.
dltlOns of the Business World.

New York, May 5.-"Failure returns
Tor April are especially valuable be-
cause they show that there does not
exist, in the most important branches
of business, the conditions which
threaten disaster. They call attention
to one line i'll which some curtailment
had seemed, from previous returns, to
be in progress, and which has been
fastened by extensive strikes in the
building trades.
"The state of business has been rep
resented to fit and used to support
several hundred theories already. The
simple fact is that some reaction from
the abnormal excitement and expan-
sion and rise of prices last year was
necessary to continued prosperity, its
duration may therefore be expected to
depend on the promptness with which
production and prices adjust them
selves to actual demands. Much prog
ress in that adjustment has been made
during the last week, with increased
activity already resulting. Strikes
springing from disputes about the
terms of work and wages for the COM
ing year have also made distinct prog

Big Expsres of Grain.
The market for goods, excepting the
most favored staples, has been SO far
unsettled and irregular as to give
small encouragement for buying wool
at current prices. Interior holders are
still strong, hoping that the end of the
season brings the end of manufacture
ers' stocks. Cotton goods have also
shown similar weakness in transac-
tions for future delivery and new bus
mess is narrow. Until prospects for
the new crop are more settled the pres
sure of English spinners for supplies
tends strongly to hold up prices here,
tho foreign mill stocks are now heavy.
April exports of breadstuffs have
been large, both wheat and corn sur
passing last years record. Atlantic ex-
ports of wheat in five weeks, flour in
lcluded, have reached II ,OSO,903 bushels,
against 10,744,79S last year; Pacific ex-
ports 3,513,350 bushels, against 2,O9O,-
1877 last year, and corn exports 15,573,-
1877, against 12,740,042 last year. In
spite of conflicting stories the move
ment of wheat from the farms contin-
ues larger than a year ago. The price
closed as it opened, while corn declin-
ed 2 cents.
All exports from New York in four
weeks have been 1914 per cent, or over
$11,O0o,OOo larger than last year, and
with the gain of $15,OOO,OOO in cotton
from other ports the months aggre-
gate for merchandise should rise above

DECISION IN HARPER BROS. CASE.
Application to Have Them Declared
bankrupt is Denied.


NEW YORK. March 13.-In the matter
of Albert Smith ct al, to have Harper 4
Brothers adjudged bankrupt corporation.
Judge Brown of the United States district
court bankruptcy parD today handed down
his decision denying the adjudication of the
corporation. After reviewing the legal steps
which have been taken in connection with
the Harper & Brothers affairs since the
appointment of a receiver in December of
last year, Judge Brown, in his decision,
says:
THE only question presented for decision
is whether the proceedings instituted for
the dissolution of the corporation and the
appointment of a receiver Hereunder con-
srtute an act of bankruptcy as charged
Continuing. Judge Brown says:
II think the petition should be at present
denied. The case is one of very great i'm
portance; the property interest involved is
very large; the administration of 1t for the
best interests of creditors, as shown by pa
pers submitted. requires very exceptional
care and competency.
Ninety per cent of the creditors, to the
amount of 100000, it is stated and not
denied, approved of the state proceedings
for a dissolution. the appointment of a re-
ceiver and the management of the affairs
under Mr.. Harvey in the interests of the
creditors, as the best possible course for
their benefit No interference with the
present administration of Its affairs should
be had by any adjudication in bankruptcy
unless it is reasonably certain that wind
ing up under the state law is an act of
bankruptcy under the existing law. There
seems to be much doubt on that point that
the proper course. l think, Is to deny ad-
judicatiOn of bankruptcy at this time, leav-
ing it to the petitioning creditors. if so ad-
vised- 10 present the question to the ap-
pellate court upon appeal from this de-

ernment the following exposition of
Frances attitude in the matter of inter-
vention in the Anglo-Transvaal war; which.
it is said. has been solicited by President
Kruger. The official in question said:
I'VE believe it il |rue the Transvaal has
sent request to the powers for their inter
vention, though up to t.is morning Presi-
dent Krugers message has not reached us.
As far as France is concerned she GER
tainiy will not take the initiative in offering
England mediation nor will Russia. for
the dual alliance is naturally working to-
gether in this question. We feel that in
the present excited state of public feeling
in England, and especially as regards our
selves, any step taken by the French gov
ernment would defeat its own object and
instead of opening way to honorable
peace would act as oil on flames and
probably only create fresh complications.
We consider that overtures for mediation
can emanate from some power whose cor
dial relations with England prevent such
a suggestion being construed an un
friendly act. The Emperor of Germany. for
instance, might take the iniative, or Presi-
dent Mckinley, without fear of creating
the friction which stands in the way of
any such action on our part, and after this
is done full reliance can be placed on the
unqualified support of France and Russia,
whose only desire is to see the end of the
bloodshed and who are eager to lend their
good offices in bringing about this end.
