The complaint brought against Patrick
Cunningham. last January. for an al
legged criminal assault upon Annie Nc
Cormick in the basement OF the Crown
mill at Olneyville. which had been con-
unued from time to time, was assigned
for hearing In the Sixth district court
today
The Mccormick girl disappeared a week
after she made her sensational statement
and Is somewhere in Massachusetts,.
Hugh J. Carroll. counsel for Cunning
ham, has often endeavored TO get trial;
but the state has asked for continuances.
Today he insisted upon some disposition
being made OF the case
Deputy Egan protested. The charge
was a very serious one. AS he could give
the court no assurances that the girl
could and would be found. Judge Sweet
land continued the case for one week.
when the state must either proceed TO
trial or drop the complaint.
There does not appear to be any rea-
son for expecting that the chief witness
will be present net Friday.
Miss McCormick's original version OF
the affair had many weak spots In It.
Some Of her assertions were found to be
untrue When this became publicly
known she disappeared.

strongly supported. The grasses for the
support of cattle are abundant, and the

the belief that this feature OF the food

FARMERS MAKE A TEST.
Suit Brought Against Cattle Commits
soner Who Had Charge of SIaugh-
ter of Cattle in WiIIiston.

An action of trover and trespass has
been brought against Ernest Hitchcock
of Pittsford as member of the state
board of cattle commissioners. by Mrs.
c. B. Loggins of Williston. In 1891 and
1902, when the cattle commissioners or
dered so many cattle killed in williston.
a bitter hatred of the law and of the
board was aroused among the farmers.
In that town 374l cattle were tested and
Of that number oil were killed, the own
ers receiving s14.S51 Aor them. The
farmers determined to make a test case
and canvass was made and a sum of
money pledged The secret leaked out
several months ago. but for some reason
action was delayed and 1t was not until
Monday that IL was announced that
suit had been brought
The case is brought in Mrs. Loggins
name, but is is proposed to make IL A test
case and the farmers of the entire town
are supporting the plaintiff. The action
is brought against Mr.. Hitchcock because
he had charge Of the tests as a result
~ which Mrs. Loggins' cattle were killed.
Mrs Loggins had a herd of II cattle test
ed and Of that number nine were ordered
killed. and for them she received from
the state sS4. The cattle were killed by
Mr. Redmond on December ., 1901.
Mrs. Loggins claims that the law under
which the cattle We're ordered killed is
unconstitutional She also claims that
Mr.. Hitchcock never had an examination
OF the cattle made after they were
killed to determine II they were diseased
and is therefore liable. The action is
returnable at the March term of Chit
tenden county court. V A. Billiard
and States Attorney elect NJ. c. Deary
have been retained for the plaintiff and
States Attorney F. c. Mower represents
Mr.. Hitchcock.
The killings at Williston were superin-
tended by the different members of the
board at different times. in certain cases

outcome of the case is watched with in

in Chittenden county. who have had
more cattle ordered killed than the resi-
dents of any other county in the state.

THEY SAW The SMOKE.
But They Declined to Act Upon the
Warning.

Once Vesuvius destroyed two Italian
cities in few hours. The people saw the
smoke from the volcano but failed to
escape in time.
Where there is smoke there is fire and
where there are symptoms of one of the
most dangerous of diseases. A feeling of
languor, a sense of weakness and WEAKNESS,
drowsiness, giddiness and mental discom-
fort. A bad taste in the mouth-the old
coppery" taste. An offensive breath,
headsche, neuralgia, heartburn, a feeling
Of dullness and weight in the stomach,
nausea, dry and feverish skin, constipation,
rising of a nasty gas into the throat, tongue
furred like the moss on a tree, irritability,
disgust with food.
Have you any of these symptoms?
Either now or sometimes? ''Yes," you say,
"but l don't think they are dangerous"
They are signs of danger. They sAow that
the eruption is coming.
Now what lies at the bottom of all these
symptoms? Indigestion, dyspepsia, and an
overworked liver. There is but one help,
one remedy. Slow, up, and for the mis-
chief already done, tone up the digestive
organs and liver with the now medicine,

THE NEWS IN BRIEF.
FAMINE IN THE PHILIPPINES.
Thousands Of People Have Died from
Cholera, Little Food Has Been
Raised, and Cattle Have Died from
Disease.

On october % a cable message was re-
ceiVed at the war department from Gov
ernor Taft saying that the food situa-
ton in the Philippines was serious and
would be for a few months on account of
the loss of crops, and that relief was
necessary.
Additional advices make the situation
appear even more serious and starva-
ton threatens unless relief can be quick
~ sent to the Islands The effects of
the war are now being felt. and Cover
nor Taft reports to Secretary Root that
II viii be several years before the pres
ent depression is overcome. Ladronism
is prevalent and is to some extent re-
sponsible for the suffering in the colonies.
Secretary Root has given directions
for the purchase of large quantities of
wheat and -four to be distributed among
the suffering Filipinos.
Governor Taft in a personal letter to
Secretary Root, in which he writes of
the material conditions prevailing, says:
The situation is depressing cholera has
destroyed thousands of lives and pre-
vented the natives from working. with
the result that little food has been
raised, and what crops were planted
were largely destroyed by locusts.
While the agricultural situation is
pad, the loss of the native carabao is
more so. thousands having been des-
troyed by rinderpest during the past
year. 1t will take three years to over
come the effects of this loss The
laboratories have been working for
months to secure a serum that will pre-
vent cattle from catching the disease and
at last have found what. 1t is believed.
Will accomplish this purpose. but IL will
be long time before the native cattle
can all be replaced"
