Railroad Damage Suits Have Hard
Shedding in Federal Court.

Personal damage suits against the Rock
Island railroad are having hard sled
ding in the present term of the United
States court, the second one being
knocked out this morning since the ses-
sion commenced a, week ago. The $685.
900 suit of A A Cryder against the
company was dismissed on Saturday
because of failure to give the defendant
the regular 80 day notice that action
had been brought.
This morning the case of A. Hanson
of Smith Center which has consumed
over two days in trial, was dismissed
without prejudice at the instance of the
plaintiff because of insufficient allega-
tions in the petition. The sum asked
for was $4,000.
Hanson was a man almost go years
of age. He owned a farm in Smith
county and while going over a railroad
crossing near his home he was run
down and killed by q Rock Island
freight train. This occurred March 8,
1894
In the petition upon which the suit
was brought, the complainant failed to
specify the foundation for damages,
the deceased to his family as a pro-
Technical features such as whether
caring for them at the time of his
death were omitted These features
hurt the chances of a big recovery for
the plaintiff, and his lawyers withdrew
the case without prejudice.
The suit was brought in the name of
Joseph Hanson, the only son of the de-

GEN. MILES ACCEPTS.
He Will Serve as Adjutant General OF
Massachusetts.

Brockton, Mass, Dec 5.-Lieutenant
General Nelson A. Miles has accepted an
appointment as adiutant general on the
staff of Governor-elect William l.. Doug
las. This information was given to the As
sociated Press by Mr.. Douglas personally.
Mr.. Douglas returned to his home in
this city after stay of two weeks at
Hot Springs, Va. The governor elect said
that the appointment had been made and
accepted. Mr.. Douglas statement con-
cerning Lieutenant General Miles and the
governors staff follows:
During my absence from the state I
had consultations with Lieutenant Cen
eral Nelson A. Miles about military af-
fairs in Massachusetts. The ideas of Gen.
Miles and myself concerning these affairs
are in exact accord and Gen. Miles Will
undoubtedly be my chief military adviser
during my administration. 1 shall proba-
bly, request the war department at Wash
ington to detail Lieutenant General Miles
to report to me, under provisions of the
law recently passed by congress, and Cen
era1 Miles will undoubtedly accept the de-
tail.
IT am anxious to secure the advice and
ministration of the military affairs of the
commonwealth, and General Miles has
stated that he would consider 1t an honor
to be asked by the governor of his native
state for his advice and assistance.
Gen. Miles will serve upon my staff,
and his great ability and experience can
not fail to be of inestimable benefit to the
state and it's organized militia
1T is also most likely that both the po-
sitions of adjutant general and inspector
general on my staff will be filled by re-
tired officers of the regular army"

Attempt to Rob Express Car on
the Overland.
At Daggett, on the California
Desert, This Morning.
MESSENGER WAS SHOT.
Received Two Wounds Which
Are Thought to Be Fatal.
The Robber, Said to Be a Negro,
Made His Escape.

Los Angeles, Cal, Dec. 5.-Reports
have just reached here of an attempt
to rob the express car on the Santa
Fe west-bound overland train No. 1
on the California desert, between 2
and 4 o'clock this morning.
Wells-Fargo Messenger Roberts was
shot and probably fatally wounded.
TIE hold-up occurred at Daggett, Cal,
on the Mojave desert, which is the
junction of the Santa Fe with the
Salt Lake road. The robber, who is
said to have been a negro, is thought
to have broken in the door of the ex-
press car when the train stopped at
Daggett. The messenger resisted and
was shot twice. His injuries are said
to be fatal, and he is unable to make
any statement. The robber escaped,
but it is not known whether he sue
ceeded in securing any booty or not.

s ABLE TO APPEAR.
Double the Previous Number of
Talesmen Called.
This Trial Is Exciting More In
terest Than the First.

New York, Dec. 5.@For the second
time Nan Patterson, the former show
girl. today prepared to face a jury
which is expected to decide whether she
is guilty or innocent of causing the
death of Caesar Young, the wealthy
bookmaker who was shoG to death
while riding in a cab with the young
woman just six months ago yesterday.
Contrary to the usual order OF
things, it is expected that the present
trial will attract even more widespread
interest than did the first. Compare
lively little of the evidence which the
prosecution claims to have was pre-
sented when the previous trial was
brought to an abrupt termination by
the serious illness of a juror. The de-
fense had not even shown its hand.
The case had scarcely passed the pre-
lfminary stages when the interruption
came. Not one of the several persons
frequently spoken of as star Witness
es" haf been called to the stand.
Only 100 talesmen were called when
preparations for selecting the first Jury
been examined when the panel was
completed. This time, however, in view
of the added publicity given to the case
it was thought more trouble would ba
experienced in filling the jury box and
a special panel of 200 talesmen has been
summoned.
During the past week Miss Patter-
son, weakened by the strain of the first
trial, has been i'll in her cell in tho
