tains thereto, the fenceviewers are to be
called upon to decide. Formerly these
were in Wisconsin the overseers Of high.

have authority to settle all questions in
dispute concerning linefences. One can.
not pick his part OF the proposed line. II
they can not agree, the feneeviewers have
to decide as to part and distance, or the
contestants will have to draw cuts.
y If one owns land and is not making
use of it, but lets it lay to the commons,
then he cannot be compelled to build
linefence. He can therefor claim no dam.
age from stock pasturing upon it, but he
is not liable for what damage such stock
may do to adjoining lands.

COST FOUR LIVES.
Tramway Across Truckee River
Breaks-Four Young People
Are Drowned.

Reno, New, May 16.-By the breaking
Of one of the spans of the suspension
tramway across the Truckee river at
Laughton Springs, five miles west of this
city, at two O'Clock Sunday, four young
people, Maurice Jacobs a young bust
ness man of this city; Miss Mcmillan,
daughter OF prominent business man of
Reno; Mrs E. S. EIDE, Jr., and Mr..
Tilsman, of Chicago, were precipitated
from the car into the swollen stream and
drowned. The tramway consists of two
steel cables stretched across the river,
upon which a car runs which is much
used by pleasure seekers. Sunday the
four young people entered the car to
cross the river. When they reached
midstream one of the strands parted.
One piercing Shrek was heard, and the
four were observed for few moments
struggling in the rapids. Both young
men were athletes and gave their lives in
a heroic effort to save their companions.
Mr. Jacobs was seen for few moments
swimming with Miss Mcmillan, holding
her above water, but in her terror she
grasped his arms and both went down.
Kingsley swan for 200 yards, holding
Mrs. Ede's head above water, and then
was seen to turn on his back, when the
woman seized him and bore the swim
mer beneath the water.

Seventy big steamers that should be
bringing general merchandise to Chi
cago from the east remain tied to their
docks. The product OF western mills
and factories which should be towing
to the seaboard by the lake route, is
stored in the warehouses or is going
in small quantities by railroad cars
Instead of 20,00O,000 bushels of grain
being loaded into lake vessels for ship
ment, scarcely half million has beer
sent forward TO eastern and foreign
consumers. On Lake Erie ports 100,-
900 tons of coal is aboard ship, but no.
a wheel can turn to bring it.

Mr.. Cannon is being the recipient Of
unusual honors. The testimonial to him
by the unanimous vote of the house at
the close of congress was the most cor
dial ever extended to a presiding off
Ger of that body. Demands that he
accept the vice presidential candidacy
are being voiced so widely by repre-
sentative republicans that he ought to
feel very highly complimented. He
has probably a larger number of polit-
teal friends among all parties than had
any of his predecessors as speaker,
even though they included such popu-
lar persons as Clay, Banks, Blaine,
Randall, Carlisle and Reed.
