SUES TOWN FOR $4,000.
Second Trial of Famous Wheeler Case
at Fort Dodge.


Fort Dodge, Sept. "A case which
because of the condition from which
it sprung is one of the most sensation
al of it's kind was taken I'D in the dis
trict court here yesterday. The case
is that of M. w. Wheeler VS.. the city
Of Fl. Dodge, the plaintiff claiming
damages to the extent of $4,000 for
injuries sustained by him year ago
last fourth of July. The case Is an
out growth of the famous Rasmussen
tragedy which occurred here on the
same date and in which Clara Ras-
mussen, an unfortunate performer I'M
der the management OF the De Eta
Amusement Co., while attempting to
perform the hazardous slide for life
as it is called, feel sheer drop OF one
hundred feet from the top of the
court house tower and was dashed to
pieces on the pavement below. The
girl was to slide down an inclined
wire into a net at it's foot, being in
cased for the purpose in a harness
which fitted about her arms and shout
ders and was attached at the top to
pulley which ran upon the wire.
Witnessed by a crowd of about ten
thousand people she mounted to the
top of the tower that fateful morning
and fastening her rigging about her
slid off from the roof. The ill-starred
girl had not slid more than ten feet,
however, when the rigging broke and
with a cry of desnair she shot through
the air striking cornice of the build
ing which whirled her head over heels
| on the downward flight. Wheeler
who now sues the city was at that
time walking up the street and just at
the moment the accident happened
walked beneath the falling girl and
was struck by her form. Miss Rasmus-
sen was found to be already dead and
| it was thought that Wheeler was also.
Weeks of nursing, however, brought
him about all right and then the suit
was commenced. In former trial it
was decided against the plaintiff. He
however. appealed the case. and it is
now before the court for the second
time. The best legal talent of the city
Is employed on both sides and both

lacks had been repealed. Ugly sus
picions, however, had been conceived
during the day owing to the absence
of press kilograms from Lao Yang
leading to the belief that the com
munications had been cut by General
Kuroki.
The following statement was OBJ
tanned by the Associated Press from
the war Office at 10 o'clock Thursday
night:
General Kuroki's army crossed in
force to the right bank of the Tai Use
river, and it therefore became neces,
sary for the Russians to be in posi-,
ton to repel blow in this direction,
I'm view of this development in the
operations, General Kuropatkin decid.
ed to abandon his positions on the left
bank and to concentrate his whole
army on the other side of the river
This position is the strongest, both in
characer and size. The great issue
will be finally decided there.
"By Withdrawing to this position
the Russian army avoids the danger
of being divided by the river and en-
Joys the advantage of compactness.
General Kuropatkin's move, there
fore, is not to be considered as a re-
treat, but rather as the carrying out
of we'll defined plan.
"The withdrawal of the Russians TO
the right bank involved the abandon
ment of Lao Yang, which is situated
on the left bank. The Japanese took
advantage of this to occupy the city,
but the sternett part of the fighting is
still before them unless General Kuro-
patkin decides at the last hour to
again fall back to the northward. IL
Is more likely, however. that he will
decide to fight to finish. The cards
are all in his favor
"It Is believed now that he has the
Japanese divided by the river, thus
effectually turning the tables upon his
foe.
"The determined pursuit by the Jap
anese of the Russian outposts when
General Kuropatkin gave the first or
der to withdraw was probably due to
their anxiety to keep the Russians
south of Lao Yang until General Ku-
roki should be able to strike from the
northeast. General Kuropatkin, how
ever, saw the trap and cleverly avoiA
ed it,"
