RULING AGAINST CHICAGO
FIRST ROUND IN SANITARY CANAL
CASE WON BY ST. LOUIS.
Decision of the Supreme Court That
Sustains Missouri's Contention
Case to BE Tried by Jury.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 2S.-The United
States Supreme Court to-day rendered an
opinion in the case of the Chicago sanitary
canal, overruling the demurers filed in the
case by the State OF Illinois and the Chi
cago sanitary canal district board The
proceeding was brought by the State of
Missouri against the State of Illinois and
the sanitary board, the end sought being to
prevent the use of the canal because of
its supposed pollution of the drinking water
of st. Louis. The effect of the decision is
to sustain the contention of the State of
Missouri. The opinion was handed down
by Justice Shiras. The chief justice and
Justices White and Harlan united in a
dissenting opinion.
Attorney William NJ Springer. represent
ing the State of Illinois and the sanitary
district of Chicago, was present when the
courts opinion was rendered He asked
leave to file an answer to the bill, and
this being granted he Immediately filed the
answer, which was already prepared
Judge Springer said later: "To-day's de-
cision merely brings the case to a point
where it will have to be tried on its mer-
its. The amended pIeadings having been
submitted, the court probably will appoint
commissioner to take testimony and the
plaintiffs will have to show what actual
damages, if any, have been inflicted by
the flow of the waters of Lake Michigan
through the canal which has been in opera
tlon for about year. Our contention will
be that instead of inflicting damages the
flow of the lake water has actually inn
proved the conditions in the Illinois and
Mississippi rivers both as to navigation
ax,1 fr<
fendents will have to prove the contrary
to the satisfaction of jury, or to the
satisfaction of court If the jury is waived
This being an original case each side has
right to jury trial. There never has
been but one jury trial heretofore in the
United States Supreme Court"

THE STRIKE WAS A HARD ONE.

| to this day had it not been for an in
cident that happened later in the aft
ernoon. Smith proposed that he,
Yorker and myself paddle over and
see what luck the men from the In
gersoll camp had been having, and
we did so. They had had much the
same luck we had, with nothing larg-
er than ten pounds to show for their
days fishing. Smith related to them
the incidents of our day, and told
them the story Of the big one luck
maier had lost just as he had told it
to us.
He thought it was big one, did

Would you like to see it? have got
it down here on line"
He took us down to the edge of the
water, and there on a line with some
others he had a musky with a bullet
hole clear through him, and it didn't
weigh an ounce over eight pounds.
''It may be the old Adam musky."
said the gentleman, but if he is old

ably. We were not more than 200
yards away when your guide shot,
and your party padded on farther
into the narrows as soon as they had
lost the fish. We followed them

We padded back to Kah-pee-Eog,

against telling fish lies.
1t was then that Zuckmaier ex-
planned that he had seen nothing OF
the fish but his nose, and Of that he
only got glance. That it was Fraser
who had seen the fish, and who had
pronounced it big one, and set its
weight, and that he had but repeat
ed Fraser's words in relating the
story, though he had innocently told
it as his own.
But Fraser was back in the Nus
koka wilds, where he could offer no
defense, and after that Wa took the
trouble to prove the truthfElness OF
fish stories.

the order expelling him from Arizona
was, at best, q military precaution,
and certainly could never have been
regarded as a military necessity.
Capt. Wotherspoon, commandant at
Mount Vernon barracks, was also a
sympathizer with the imprisoned
chief. Vincent Colyer stated to the
authorities that Es-kim-in-zin was the
first Indian chief who came into the
military post at old Camp Grant,
Ariz., in the spring of 1871, and asked
to be allowed to live in peace. 1t is
asserted that while there under the
protection Of the American flag, and
assured by the army officers that he
a>d his people could sleep in their
camp in as perfect security as the
soldiers could in theirs, they were, in
the early dawn. set upon by band

Americans, and 12s Of his tribe, his

MO ONE would ever have thought

MO ONE would ever have thought
IN it of Zuckmaier. Charley was
considered the one truthful man in
camp, and then for him to be caught
in the worst lie of the season, and
caught so that there was no POSSIBLE
ity of twisting out of it, or explain
ing it away to the satisfaction of the
remainder of the club, was inexplain-
able.
Zuckmaier has been able to prove
the truthfulness of every fish tale he
had ever told, and it had become the
rule never to question anything he
told. So implicit was our confidence
in him that we would probably have
believed him had he told of landing
hundred-pound musky and then
throwing it back into the lake again.
There are no muskies in Kah-pee-
kog. There is an endless procession
of bass, in fact, 1 have always
thought Kah-pee-kog must have been
the Eden of the bass family, and
have persistently fished for the bass
Adam, but never in the memory Of
the oldest inhabitant had a musky
been seen IN the lake waters.
But bass fishing had become monot-
onous. Not for lack of bass. but
more because of the quantity, for
there is no other body of water in all

gian bay country to which the Grand

and this was a little girl, two aud

arms as he fled. Es-kim-in-zin, the
day after the massacre, returned to
Camp Grant, where the commanding
officer assured him that no soldier
had any part in or sympathy with
this brutal butchery. With this as
surance he returned with the surviv-
ors of his band, and once more placed
himself under the protection of the
troops. Within six weeks his camp
was charged by troop of white SOL
diers, his people assaulted and driven
into the mountains. 1t was stated in

Trunk railway carries so many tour
lists and fishermen in which the fight
ing bass are more numerous. So it
was that we proposed to go for mus
kies.
Just as Kah-pee-kog is the Eden
Of the bass family, so is Crane lake
the Eden of the muskies. and it was
to Crane lake we went. In the party
were Smith and Yorker, Zuckmaier,
Fraser and myself, and we headed
straight for that picturesque bit of
water known as Deep Cut in Crane,
where Fraser assured us the muskies
were SO thick as to crowd each other
for room to swim, and where historic
legend has it the old Adam musky
himself resides.
We were not the only visitors to
Crane lake that day. Two gentlemen
from the Ingersoll camp on Healy
came in a few minutes after us with
ambitions similar to our own, and
followed us into Deep Cut.
When we were ready for the days
fishing Zuckmaier and Fraser had
been paired off to the same canoe;
Smith was by himself in another, and
Yorker and occupied a third.
It was not until two o'clock in the
afternoon that we were again to-
pether, and ready for a recounting
of our adventures during an hours
rest.
NO, I didn't get anything better
than the old mans grandson" said
Smith in answer to a query as to his
luck. "a 12-pounder that l brought
back with me, but I guess that he
will match anything else that was
caught. Got several smaller ones,
seven, eight and nine Founders. but
threw them back again. How about
YOU, Charley?" he added, turning to
Zuckmaier.
Nothing worth speaking of" re-
piled Zuckmaier. SCOT several small
ones, like yourself. but the big one
got away. :.
do you think he struck you?"
asked Yorker.
.Sure Of it." replied Zuckmaier.
.sThe fish lost didn't weigh an ounce
less than so pounds. and he might
have gone more than that"
The tone, the manner of springing
such sensation, both carried con-
yiction with them if he had never
said another word, and not one of us
ever thought of questioning his story
until later.
"Fraser and I padded back down
the bay until we had rounded the

this portion with the main lake." he
gan Zuckmaier again. II had siz>d

It was good place for 6sh. Wa

fore l had a strike. He took the bait
just as though he was starved, and
hooked him nicely. Like all muskies,
he went out of the water the first
thing, and saw he was only small
one, probably one of the great
grandchildren. I landed him, dropped
him overheard again, and during the
next. hour landed several of about
the same size. The big one didn't
show up until nearly noon, but I
wasn't discouraged. for had gotten
it into my head that they were hold
ing family reunion, and that the
old man must be around somewhere.
Il had waited longer than usual for
q new strike, and when it finally
came it was peculiar. The strike was
a hard one, all right, but after / had
hooked him he failed to show him.
self, which was unusual. I played
that fish for ten minutes or more,
and was having the best kind of
sport; then he shot around the stern
of the canoe, and I passed my rod
over my head to accommodate him
to his new location. l had been pull
ing him in little all the time. and
as he got to the other side of the
canoe / had him within dozen feet
of us, and his nose was right up to
the top of the water. That was the
first glimpse I had had of him. and

but, as bad luck would have it, ! had
but an insecure hold on him. He was

nose, and 1 knew that I could never

We swallowed every word of the
told tale, bait, hook and all.
