Two Weeks Ago.

An assault and battery case was
tried tefore Justice Mckinley Wedl e !;

fclose along about 80 in the evening.
e. j. Shelmadine was the defendant
and o. Z. Cassem was the plaintiff
in the cas- The assault occurred on
June ? on the road past Shelmadine,s
house on east First Street.
The attorneys in the case were
L. j. S~pangler for Mr.. Cassem and
l. @. Hardesty for Nh. Shelmadine.
From the evidence in the case it
appeared that Shelmadine gave a

collect from Cassem. which he claimed
was due him. When Cassem passed
along that way o his return home
in tie afternoon McCarty stopped
Cassem and presented the order,

and he appeared on the scene, and
Cassem claimed that the defendant
tried tG pull him out of the buggy.
but he resisted his efforts. and that
Sheimadine climbed in and gave
him a terrible beating, and while
this was going made Cassem promise
to pay the amount due. Shelmadine
admitted to have struck Cassem
possibly once but did not climb in
the buggy for that purpose. He stood
with his foot on the wheel and the
horse cramped the buggy so that he
had to climb in to extricate himself
from the position. and while there
the tight took place. Shelmadine
had four witnesses ON his side, and
Cassem had but one. Mr.. Lang, who
saw but part of the affair.

of 500 in the case.

SENATOR NTTREDGE's EFFORT
Made a Strong speech Fayoring
Construction of the Canal
via Panama.

Senator Kittredge has attained
considerable notoriety by means OF
the speech he delivered in the senate
a few days ago concerning the con
struction of the canal, fayoring the
Panama route. and in which be
made plain to the listening senators
the game that the Costa Ricans were
endeayoring to work on the United
States. Walter Wellman made the
following comment on the senator S
speech in a letter to the Chicago
| Record-Herald:

an audience of fellow senators which
was a great compliment to him. He
was closely followed by thirty or forty
senators. and they followed him close
iy because he had something to say.
As a member of the in~teroceanic COM
mittee Nj. Kitrredge Investigated
the whole subject. Like the good
lawyer he is, he went deep into the
question of title, and wrote for the
minority of the committee that re-
markable report which completely
upset the absurd claims Mr.. Morgan
and his friends had been making.
Yesterday Mr.. Kittredge not only
convinced his hearers that the title
to the Panama route is perfect, but
called attention to another import
ant matter already referred to by
Senator Collum. towit. that Costa

attempting to describe the battle, be-
