IOWA HUNTER MAY PROTEST.
Possible Test Of the Legality Of tn,
Minnesota Game Law.

Minnesota Game Law.
ST. Paul. Nov. 13.-The Minnesota
courts may soon have chance to pass
ON the game law, requiring non-resi-
dent hunters to procure license, which
costs S25. Milt H. Allen, lawyer OF
Sheldon, Ia, believes the law will not
hold, and he Is ready to test 1t.
When three pot-hunters were arrested
at Heron lake this fall, duck boat
and some decoys in their possession
were confiscated. Executive Agent Full
lerton of the state game and fish COM
mission soon after received "a letter
from Mr.. Allen, saying the boat and the
decoys belonged to him. He hunted at
Heron lake, and left them in the care
of the pot-hunters, he said. without
knowing they would use them. Any
way, he thinks the department has no
right to seize them. He said he would
replevin them If they were held.
Several letters were exchanged and In
one Mr.. Allen said he hunted at Heron
lake for two seasons. Mr.. Fullerton
reply contained bill for $50 for d non
resident hunters license for two years
Then Mr.. Alien made a final demand for
the boats and said the Minnesota laws
were mo good" anyway.
The boat and the decoys are held by
the game and fish commission, and will
be sold with other confiscated things,
If Mr.. Allen attempts to hunt in Min
nesota this fall without a license, he
may get chnce to test the law.

feared lest if the farmer did nos came

the passage of the BARRIERS bill that was
killed in the senate at the last session OF
the general assembly. Already an Or

make up ..his sum.

ottumwa, Nov. ia bad freight
wreck occurred on the Milwaukee rail-
road near Sewell yesterday. One of that
roads large compound engines, the EOS,
and twenty one cars loaded with mer-
chandise, lumber and coal lie in the bot
tom of small gully a short distance
from that station. The engine left the
rails entering the bridge, and pulled the
twenty lone cars after ii. So far as
known none of the trainmen We're in
iured. The engineer and fireman saved
themselves by jumping. A bridge car
penter who was working near the scene
Of the wreck, was slightly injured but
it is not believed his wounds are seri-
Gus. The bridge was completely torn
away and traffic will be entirely sus-
pended until new bridge can be built
over the place. A wrecking outfit and
pile driver left Ottumwa Junction late
in the afternoon to clear the wreck and
rebuild the bridge. 1t is not expected
that traffic will be moving before this
evening at the earliest.
The Inflated train was No. So, the fast
Denver merchandise. 1t left this city
about s o'clock in the morning with an
extra heavy train and had made good
time until Sewell was reached. AS the
heavy freight train Numbered along a
sharp curve, and drove onto twelve
span bridge about twelve feet in height,
the structure suddenly gave way, and
engine and cars began piling up at the
bottom of the email creek. How the en-
ginemen escaped with their lives is a
mystery. The flying debris was thrown
in every direction, but after the first
shock had died away they crawled from
the bottom of the gully uninjured. Be-
fore the balance of the train could be
stopped. twenty-one loaded cars had
been piled on top of the engine.
Work was at once sent to this city for
aid, and the wrecking outfit and pile
driver was ordered to make ready for
the wreck. The bridge is in such a
shape that a new one will have to be
built. and it will be impossible to get
traffic over the road until this has been
