Clinton, April lone of the most
terrible railway accidents that has oc-
CURED in this vicinity in recent years
happened last night at 11:20 o'clock
at Dewitt a small station on the Chi
cago & Northwestern railway, nineteen
miles west of here, resulting in the
death of one man and severe injury to
another.
No. 25, the west-bound local passen-
ger. in charge of Conductor Herb
Sykes and Engineer Charley Keith,
with engine 257, was pulling into the
Dewitt station, and in trying to cross
in front of the train were Night Oper-
ator w. H. Barber and travelling man
named Fred Dieckmann, who travels
out of Milwaukee for cigar box manu-
featuring concern. Barber was sure
they could make it and get on the
other side of the train, but his calcula-
ton was poor, as the approaching train
was only about six feet away. The en-
CINE struck both men, killing Barber
instantly and injuring Dieckmann so
that he may not live. Dieckmanns left
leg was cut off below the knee and the
right foot severed just above the ankle.
BARRIERS body was horribly mangled,
and smaller pieces of 1T were not found
until this morning, when they were
picked up strewn along the track for a
distance of several feet.
Dieckmann was removed early this
morning to this city, and placed in a
hospital. He may live, but the chances
are against his recovery, as he is still
suffering badly from the shock. Bar
Der was young man and only went to
Dewitt recently. His home was in

WEEKLY WEATHER REPORT.
Iowa Weather and Crop Service to
Issue Bulletins Soon.

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines, April 1.-The weekly
weather reports from the Iowa Wealth
er and Crop Service will commence the
middle OF the present month. The
preliminary reports received at the
central station indicate that the sea-
son is going to be an excellent one
at least there are no adverse indica-
tons at the present time. The month
OF March was much warmer in Iowa
than usual and because of this fact
the farmers ofs the state are reported
to have advanced their work far be-
yond that which is usual. Some seed
ing has been done, but preparation fol-
seeding has been almost completed in
every part of the state. Fears are eX-
pressed by many that the season will be
dry and a second drouth would be
disastrous. The season opens much
like that of 1895 when the spring was
very dry, but the crops We're good be-
cause Of favorable rains during tho
early growing season. II am very
hopeful of a good season." said j. r.
Sage of the crop bureau, and I see
nothing but encouragement in the
present conditions. The ground is in
the best possible condition for spring.
The ideal condition to follow would be
rainfall we'll distributed turnout the
growing season, but we do not need a
great amount of rain. / have no fear
of a drouth and believe we are sure
to have good season on Iowa farms

was thought to be only jesting, as he
has always been known as practical
Joker. II was noticed by friends, how
ever. that he was evidently not right
mentally and an effort Yas made by a
half dozen to overpower him, thinking
that he might do some damage. A
fight ensued as soon as the men at
tempted to handle the insane man, and
it was not until he was securely
strapped that he was removed to the
county Jail.
Barnt is an old soldier who was in
tending soon to leave his farm and
come to Toledo to reside. He was here
only last Saturday, and then was
thought to be acting strangely. To a
friend he said that when he moved to
town he was going to entertain his SOL
der friends, and that he would have a
large parade from Columbia township
to Toledo. He said he would stop at
Tama, get shave and "the glucose
washed out of him. and at Toledo the
United Brethren people would meet him
with brass band and escort him to his
new home. "All those who come" he
said, 1--WE will charge Is cents and those
who stay away we will only charge 10
cents" Barnt had hand bills printed to
this effect and yesterday forenoon dis
tributed them about town, asking 10
cents for them anil threatening not to
trade any more with merchants who
would not buy them.
1t is not known what is responsible
for Mr.. Barnt's insanity unless it is that
he worried about leaving the old home
place and moving into town. His case
is very pitiable one. The hearing be-
fore the commissioners is set for this
afternoon

10 FIGHT BEEF TRUST.
New York Retailers Forming an
ORGANIZATION With a Large
Capital.
Butchers TO Take Stock In the
Concelrn..Compete With
Chicago.
|
Today's Cattle Market Active
and Strong-.Hogs 10 Cents
Higher.

New York, April 1.-THE Herald this
morning publishes the following ac-
count of an organization intended te
compete with the packers of Chicago
and elsewhere: I'm order to fight the
beef trust on it's own grounds, the re-
tail butchers of this city are forming
an association for the slaughter OF
cattle. 1t is expected that the capita
of the proposed organization shall be
at least s1,00O,000. A partial canvass
of the trade indicates that there are
twenty-five or more retail butchers
who are willing to subscribe $4,000
apiece toward the stock of the new
company. Besides these there are
many butchers who can give $4,000
each and others who may be put down
for from $1,000 to $4,000.
This plan has been under considera-
ton for several weeks as a protest
against the insatiate demands of the
corporations which control the meat
supply Of this country.
Those who are interested in form
ing the butchers company intend to
purchase live cattle in the western
markets. They say that with the aid
of sufficient capital they can buy as
advantageOusly as can any one else
The cattle. shall be shipped alive to
this city and slaughtered in an abat-
toir, on which the butchers already
have an option.
Butchers who take stock in the new
enterprise will be expected to purchase
all their meats of their own company
Altho it Is more economical to bring
their carcasses to this city in refriger-
ator cars than to transport the live
animals, the butchers have decided to
do all the slaughtering here, If the
this is that meat can not be considered
as Kosher" which has been slain for
more than twenty-four hours The
cheaper portions Of the carcass, when
the animal has been, slain under the
supervision of the rabbi, bring 8 to 4
cents pound more than they would
IL the cal,casses We're brought here.
There was time when there wera
in this city fifty slaughter houses
What killing of cattle is now done here
is carried on in five abattoirs on the
East river. It is In this neighborhood
that the butchers company proposes
to locate its slaughter house.
The plans for the opposition among
the retail butchers have been devel-
oped, largely because Swift & Co. We're
compelled to shut down their local
slaughter plant some time ago at the
expiratiorl Of their lease. and the re-
fusal Of the board of health to grant
permit for a new plant now building.
The warfare between Swift & Co
and the health department has reached
stage of open defiance, and the
trust is going ahead with work on its
new plant. without a permit to oper-
ate. The entrance of Swift & Co
into the local livestock market was
caused by the profits in sight in hand
ling kosher killed beef for New
York.

Talk about these being high prices
for cattle" said one of the old timers.
who We're discussing the agitation of
high prices for beef say, you should
have been here in 1882, when cattle
sold up to 50 and $3.50. I had an Iowa
shipper here with a string of good, fat
steers, just after the market began to
recede a little from the high water
mark, and he threatened to ship his
cattle back home because I could not
land them at IS. I finally prevailed
him to sell them at $7.S5. One of his
neighbors did ship his cattle back
home and sold them two or three
months later more than $1,000 below
what he could have had for them or
this market when they were here. Yet
there was not so much talk about
high priced beef from consumers then
as now"
