LAW COURT DECISIONS.

b The law court handed down the fol
lowing Cumberland county reecript on
Saturday:
Cumberland. ss. Michael Foley VS..
Charles .. Smith. Rescript.
The danger from undertaking to roll
the heavy. thin and wide stone over the
planks laid for that purpose across the
trench was obvious to the plaintiff
who was of mature age and of expert
ence with handling stone. He engaged
in the undertaking without objection
and must be held to have assumed the
risk
The only other matter urged as ncgii-
gence in the defendant was that in
turning the wide stone up on its edge.
he lifted too strongly and TOO suddenly.
Sc that The plaintiff was not able to
hold on its edge and it fell over upon
the other side. breaking the planks by
its weight and momentum. Tho eVi-
cience fails to show that this was any
thing more than an error of Judgment
by the defendant The error of judS
ment was not before the event. suiii-
ciently plain to justify jury in find
ing it 10 be negligence. Exceptions
oVerruled.
FLYNN VS.. SHATTUCK.
Cumberland. IS. Charles Flynn VS..
Jacob =. Shattuck. Rescript.
There was enough evidence in TINS
case to justify the jury in finding that
the defendant was driving carclessly.-
that his carekSs driving caused the IN
iury To the plaintiff.-and that there
was no contrbutory negligence upon
the part Of the plaintiff. The damages
do NOT appear to be excessive.
Motion overruled.

The bill of exceptions contains ohlE

means of determining whether the

LANDS UNDER WATER
Crop Situation in the Red Valley
Becomes Serious.
WHAT WILLIAM BUDGE SAYS
Dry Weather Will Recoup Losses to
Some Extent-Entire Farms
Submerged.
speclal to The Iournnl

special TO The Journal.
Grand Forks, N. D., July 6.-The heavy
downpour Of yesterday morning has made
the crop situation rather serious in all the
lower lands along the Red river. Hundreds
OF acres of wheat are under water in Penn
Dlna, Walsh, Grand Forks and Trail coun-
Ties IN this state and in Kittson Marshall,
FOLK and Norman counties in Minnesota. The
ground has been thoroughly soaked in all
section for several days, and is in no condi-
tion to stand a heavy downpour each day,
such as has occurred for the past two weeks.
Where the land is high there has been but
little damage, and where the soil is sandy
the water has all disappeared within a few
hours. But in the lowlands the conditions
have already reached a critical stage, and
the weather for the next few days will be
sufficient to determine whether a large per-
centage Of the crop will be entirly ruined or
not
William Bulge, who has watched condi-
tions very closely for some time, says that
but few realize the extent Of the damage.
He believes that 40 per cent of the crops on
the lowlands along Red and Red Lake rivers
has been ruined already and that nothing will
save them. He says he has advices that in
some places entire farms are under water,
and that even should no further rains fall,
from 30 per cent to so per cent of the crop
on these lands will be utterly ruined.
There are Others however, who believe
that if drying weather should prevail from
this time forward, the loss would be very
slight, even in the lowlands. A good drying
wind prevailed all day yesterday and should
it continue to-day and tomorrow the strained
condition would be relieved to great extent.
Speaking generally, there has been little or
no apprehension felt on account of the heavy
rains from the fact that it was realized that
the ground was very dry when the rains start
ed few weeks ago and was therefore in
condition to take care of a great deal Of
moisture.

The Week in Sioux City.

Sioux City, Iowa, July 6.-Fourth of July
week usually shows up with decrease in
receipts, and the supply for the past week
was no exception Supplies were but $780,
indicating falling off of LOO from the pre-
Vious week. The run, however, showed a
gain OF 200 over the same week a year ago.
Ine stocker receipts were heavier than ex-
peeted, but the arrivals included two train
loads of southern stock cattle, which were
brought in on through bills to the range at
Pierre, 5. D., and were not placed on sale.
There were about 400 head in the two ship
ments, and when they were deducted the
offerings were few The trade throughout
the week was very draggy and unsatisfac-
tory and had the receipts been liberal the
market would have suffered another drop, as
year.
AS 1t was, the movement was slow and the
sales about steady at last weeks decline
There was fair inquiry for good heavy feed
ers ard some small lots sold from $40 to
$4.55 but the offerings in this grade were
very Few. Calves and yearling steers which
We're OF desirable quality sold from 81 to
$4.z5 and 1t required something pretty good
to bring over $4.25. Common to fair steer
stun stun OF all weights ranged from So to $375
ing cows from $2,25 to $2.75. and bulls from
$z.oO to S3.75. In fat cattle, the market mani
rested weakness in sympathy with other
points early in the week and towards the
close the sales showed a decline Of l002Oc
from the close of the week before
The good, well-fnished export beeves do
not snow so much change, and the decline
was felt mostly in the medium grades Good
d.250 to 1,S50-lb beeves ranged from S. 40 10
$o.75, the $50 to 1,250-lb dressed beef steers
from 30 to $5.40, and the light weight, half fat
steers from $3.50 to So Butcher stuff suffered
in sympathy with the decline in steers. Good
rat COWS and heifers sold from 1915 to 81
ene medium grades at $2.75@S.75, and the
Gamers and thin cows from $1.75 to 81 75
'Veals changed hands at $45O@5. 80
Hogs-Receipts of hogs were moderate.
comprising 14,6O0, indicating a decrease of
S,O00 from the week before, but gain of 500
over the same week a year ago. On Mon
day the market opened a nickel lower and
there was further decline on Tuesday which
made the sales average 121zc lower than the
close OF the week before. On Friday when
the receipts were very light part of the
loss was regained and the sales averaged
ABOUT &c lower than the same day the week
before The weights and the quality showed
no notable change.
