day to discuss plans to minimize wage

with counsel were several prominent

The povle-Rurns Case.

Council Bluffs, Dec. 16.-Judge Green's
court room was filled to its capacity
when he convened court Saturday.
There were present prominent attorneys
and jurists from Omaha and this city to
hear the opening argument by Charles
j. Hughes of Denver, for the plaintiff
in the Doyle-Burns mining suit for a
large block Of stock in the Portland
Mining Company. Mr.. Hughes began
with preliminary statement OF thanks
to the court and jury for the patience
displayed thru the ten and half weeks
CT the trial. He then took up the his
tory OF the early partnership of James
Doyle and James G. Burns He said that
there was no claim made by Doyle that
there was business partnership, but
that the men had shared their ups and
downs as all miners do in making loca-
tions, and when their success was as
sured, that both were entitled to equal
shares in their fortunes.

as in 1894. Another fact he points out,
which the farmers of Iowa will not
overlook, is that there are improved
methods of t!llage in use, and the farm
ers know better how to conserve the
moisture and make the most of their
opportunities. THE up-to-date farm
ers" says Mr.. Sage, have profted
somewhat by the costly lessons OF ex-
perience in the disastrous season of the
last decade. We have made considerable
progress on these lines during the past
seven years, melted thereto by the dire
full experience of 1894, and under the
practical instruction of agricultural pa
pers, lecturers scientific experts. and
the experiment station reports. Our
farmers would be very dull scholars in
deed if they had failed to profit materi-
ally by all these lines upon lines. pre-
cepts and examples"
The Iowa supreme court meets tomor-
row for short session OF consultation
and to clear the docket of the cases sub
mitted during the time Judge Given has
been chief justice. A number OF inter-
esting decisions may be expected. OF
criminal cases the most interesting now
under submission to the court IS the ap-
peal of the state in the case of Gus
Grimmell from Greene county, but this
is of chief interest to lawyers as 1t in
wolves a question of privileged commu-
nications to physician and the right
of a doctor to refuse to testify. The
court upheld doctor in his refusal to-
testify as to what he learned when
called in case involving crime. The
attorney general holds that the law COW
ering privileged communications does
not extend to such cases. The case ap-
pealed by j. w. Booth. OF Howard
county, has been hard fought. He was
convicted Of perjury in having swore out
a warrant accusing a neighbor of hav-
ing tried to shoot Booth. 1t turned out
that it was case of revenge for an old
grudge. John Hogan, OF Winneshiek
county, serving time for burglary, will
watch for reports from the court. He
was one Of q party accused of having
stolen junk and sold in in Lacrosse. A
murder case from Union county may be
decided-that of. G. A. Williams who
shot and killed deputy sheriff who was
serving writ on Williams. He is serv-
ing life sentence. The decision in the
contested election case from Iowa coun-
ty, involving the Office of county clerk,
Is expected. A decision will be given in
the case of Gibson VS.. Thorbert, a dam
age case growing out of the plaintiff be-
ing burned with phosphorus. The tax

Webster City, Dec. 16.-The tax fer

in this city. The district court which
just closed its session here disposed OF
six OF these cases. In each and every
one of them Judge Kenyon's decision
was adverse to the ferrets Three of
the cases were against banks in differ
ent parts of the county and three pri-
vate individuals. The ferrets worked in
the country the greater part of last
spring. Not a great amount in delin-
quert taxes, however. was uneartiled by
them. In every instance where the mat
ter was brought into court the ferrets
have been beaten. OF course many de-
notwithstanding themselves to be

neither been fruitful to the ferrets nor

Doze. 1S-year-old daughter OF DR..
Crofford, who was recently sentenced
to a term of thirteen years in the peni-
tentiary at Fort Madison, has sued her
aged husband for divorce on the novel
grounds that he misrepresented the
amount of his wealth to her when
the marriage contract was entered into.
She claims he has but $4,000, instead OF
$4,000 the value of property which he
claimed to have possessed prior to the
marriage. Peter Doze was as years OF

II understand perfectly well that

/ do not believe the admiral sanctions
any move in that direction.
"Out In the west the sentiment is all
one way, and know that nothing would
induce the people in my section of the
country to change their views as to the
practical results achieved by Schley at
Santiago They do not consider the tac-
fical misdoings of Schley prior to the
battle, and they attach greater import
nce to what Dewey say0in his brief
}kpors ahan they do to the findings OF

i "There would be a division OF opinion

either Admiral Schley or the navy can
be benefited by prolonging a controver-
sy which never need have been start
