Des Moines, Sept. 2S.-Frederick NJ.
Hubbell, one Of the wealthiest citizens
of the state of Iowa, his wife, Frances

their successors in trust for the trust
ors and their lineal descendants with
Limitation over" as the lawyers term
it, to the state of Iowa to be used in

mences with the date of the declara-
ton and continues to the limit OF time

lives in being and twenty-one years
thereafter. The lives mentioned are
those of the trustors, Frederick M.
Hubbell and Frances e. Hubbell; their
three children, Frederick G. Hubbell
and Grover c. Hubbell, of Des Moines,
and Beulah c., the wife of Count Axel
Wachtmeister, of Paris, France, and
bell, aged IL and years respectively,
and the life of the survivor of these
seven persons.
Estimating the duration of these
lives at from sixty to seventy years,
and adding the twenty-one years men,
toned, the trust will in all probability
last from eighty to ninety years and
will by the natural increase in value
be a magnificent estate.
The property conveyed Is divided in
to three classes. Schedule A, real
property, not to be sold," many par
cells of Des Moines real estate, the NJ
tai present value of which is estimated
at from s2,500,000 to 100000.
Schedule B, real property, which
may be sold" consisting of lots and
acreage in the suburbs of the city val
ued at from 100000 to 100000.
Schedule C. personal property" val
ued at $4,000.
During the life of Mr.. Hubbell Sr.,
he is to have the net income Of the
trust property; after his death, Mrs.
Hubbell receives $4,000 year as long
as she lives, and, subject to this annu-
ity, the net income of the property is
to be divided equally among the three
children and their descendants. ,
In case Of failure of any of these
three lines, the lapsed third reverts to
the trust estate. In case of failure of
all three lines, the whole estate goes
to the state of Iowa for the founding
of university in Des Moines.
Article 10 embodies what is known
as "spendthrift trust and clause
| against anticipations," disinheriting
| spendthrifts and drunkards. The val.
idity Of these provisions, it is said, has
not yet been fully determined by the
courts of Iowa, but they are drawn
/ with great care.

Mason City, Sept. 2S.-The Com.
mercial Bank of this city would like to
know the whereabouts Of Alexander
.-orn, who for the past few years has
been one Of the most extensive cattle
raisers in the county. Recently he
shipped ninety head of fancy bred
stock to Chicago, requesting cash in
advance. The bank which had loaned
him money heard of the transaction
and stopped payment on the cattle and
then prosecuted the cases in court. 1t
is alleged that he owes Mrs. I. r. Kirk
and C. A. Harker, whose farms he
rented, considerable sum, and the
trial revealed the fact that Horns
friends have spirited away all the per-
sonal property of the big farmer since
his disappearance. Confronted, how.
ever, by an action in court, they have
returned everything the landlords
agents have been able to find.

BOARD OF TRADE LOSES.
Defendant Did Not Come Into Court
With Clean Hands.

Dubuque, Sept 25.-Judge Shiras
has written the opinion for the United
States court Of appeals in the case Of
Chistrie Grain & Stock company, ct al,
appellant, versus the Board of Trade
of Chicago, appellee, reversing the de-
cision of the federal court of Missouri
and remanding the case to that court
with instructions to dismiss the bill at
compliments cost. The Chicago
Board of Trade secured an Injunction
in the lower court against the Chistrie
company restraining 1t from obtaining
from the telegraph companies any of
the quotations furnished by the board
of trade, alleging that the quotations
were private property and could not
be furnished except upon contract.
The testimony developed that IS per
cent of the transactions of the board
was gambling in margins, that by ad-
mission of the board it was shown that
it maintained bucketshops. On this
evidence the appellee court holds that
the board of trade did not come into
court with clean hands, or for lawful
purpose, and it was not the duty Of a
court of equity to grant any relief
prayed by it, that the transactions
were in violation Of the statute of
Illinois and therefore unlawful.

GAVE JURORS BEER.
Storm Lake Man Punished for Alleged
Attempt to Influence Jurors.

Storm Lake, Sept. 2S.-Quite a SEN
sation developed here in the district
court in the case of Snyder VS.. Run
chic. 1t appeared, Saturday, that the
plaintiff had gone with one Of the jur-
ors to the room of the latter, and
there, with one or two other men,
drank beer with the juror who was
serving on the case, the beer being fur
nished by the plaintiff.
In the morning the attorney for the
defense learned of the occurrence dur
ing the night and at once filed mo-
ton for a continuance, alleging i'm
proper relations between the plaintiff
and the juror. Considerable evidence
was taken before the court in support
of the motion and against it, The
court found that the plaintiff had been
guilty of attempting to influence the
juror, and granted the defendants mo-
ton and taxed all the costs of the case
to the plaintiff, with an attorneys fee
| of $50 for defendants attorneys and a
fine of $40. The entire cost to the
| plaintiff will amount to nearly $3.50.

SHERIFF GETS LYNcHERs.
Desperate Battle Occurs in Tonnes
see Jail.


Lynchburg, Tenn, Sept 26.-Sheriff
Davidson, in attempting to save the
life of a young negro yesterday, fired
into a mob which was storming the
Jail, wounding a man whose name is
unknown. The sheriff summoned as.
sistance, but he and his aides were
overpowered, the jail was entered and
the much-wanted negro, Hallen Small,
shot to death in the corridor. The
mob was composed Of about twenty
five persons. Sheriff Davidson was
alone at the time. He refused to give
up the keys and opened fire from
window.
The sheriff then called for the police.
Two officers and several citizens
rushed to the jail, but despite their
presence the mob battered down the
wooden door at the foot of the stairs
leading to the corridor. The sheriff
and posse made a determined resist.
ance, but were unable to prevent the
mob from breaking in the iron door at
the head of the STAIRS and entering
the cell occupied by the negro, about
whose neck they placed rope.
AS soon as the men emerged from
the cell it became apparent that the
negro could not be taken from the Jail
and hanged, for fear of being fired on,
and he was shot to death.
The mob then made an effort to es.
cape, but the sheriff and his guard
captured three of them. One of them,
it is said. has made a confession, i'm.
plicating thirteen men. Small was an
der arrest on the charge of criminally
assaulting Mrs. Eliza Eggleston and at
the preliminary hearing the warrant
was amended so as to charge simple
case of assault. The negro had waived
examination and was awaiting the
action of the grand jury.
