Union Labor Label Decision.

Judge G. Wheeler, of the superior
court, at Bridgeport, Conn, has grant
ed an injunction restraining c. NJ.
MerriN & Son, of Danbury, from using
"A label which is alleged to be an in
fringemcnt upon the label of the
United Hatters of North America. The
decision is sweeping in its effect, the
labor organizations being given a
standing before the court, and every
contention upheld. The matter of a
contract between the unions and m
ployers is held to be legal. One OF
the features OF the decision is the
statement that strikes and their con-
comitants are no as injurious as some
OF the court decisions, the latter being
permanent in their effect. while the
strike and disorder are ephemereal.

EXCITING DESTROYER FIGHT
90 IMPLIES Of Russian Atrocity to Captured
Japanese soidiers-News
In General.

General K%uropatkin's success in ex.
Treating his army from the Lao Tuns
peninsula without disaster has ELECTED
much praise from the japanese. The
concentration of his enemy at Kai
Chou at one time seemed certain &c
involve 1t in disaster. 1t was popu.
larry believed that a general decisive
battle would either be fought at Ia
Tche Kiao or at Hal Cheng. 1t is con-
sidered that K%uropatkin sacrificed his
prestige by abandoning an immense
territory without a battle. He was
forced to abandon or destroy valuable
stores and munitions of war when the
transportation a almost the most
serious problem to the Russians. He
also impaired the morale of his army,
but he preserved his men and guns. 1t
is evident that he had hoped and
planned to check the Japanese ad-
vance at Ia Tche Kiao. Then, after
holding the enemy in check, it is be-
lieved to have been his purpose to con-
centrate his remaining force at Lao
Yang and to strike Kuroki.
Admiral Toga reports an exciting
torpedo boat destroyer fight which
took place off Port Arthur. The jap
anese torpedo boat %destroyers Akebono
and Obsa approached the entrance of
the harbor for the purpose of recon-
noitering. Fourteen Russian torpedo
boat destroyers dashed out. separated
and endeavored to surround the jap
anese boats. The latter broke through
the Gordon. however, driving off three
OF the Russian boats. At this point
the japanese torpedo boat destroyer
Asuma attacked eleven Russian boats.
The latter retired within the harbor.
The Japanese boats were uninjured.
The damage to the Russian ships is
unknown.
General Kuroki's staff urgeons have
examined the bodies of a number of
soldiers whom they allege have been
the victims Of Russian atrocity. One
OF the cases cited was that Of the con-
dition OF affairs found at Ito. 1t was
declared by the surgeons that the head
OF a Japanese soldier was skinned by
the Russians while the blood was yet
In circulation. Four cases in the Vi
cinity Of Siamatzsa also were reported,
In which the surgeons asserted that
the bodies were bayoneted after the
victims had fallen wounded. The pub
Of these statements has created
a feeling Of disgust and intense re-
sentiment.

Miss Ella Robertson, who has re.
Gently returned from the st. Louis
fair, is much pleased with the exhibit
Nebraska has to show to its visitors.
After viewing the exhibits of the
other states Of the west" said Miss
Robertson, II concluded that our fair
state has the best. This is especially
true in the agricultural and fruit ex-
hibits, the latter being In charge of
Mrs. Atkinson, of Omaha. and is GER
tainly arranged in most tempting
fashion.
AN unique feature OF the Nebraska
exhibit, and one not found in scarcely
another part of the agricultural build
ing, is the free ice-water. This little
mark OF hospitality, where you do not
have to pay for a cooling drink, makes
this part OF the grounds an attractive
spot to visitors. The moving picture
lectures every half hour. showing the
corn belt. the activities of Nebraska's
farms and ranches, are a source of
much comment on the part Of eastern
people"

The Nebraska Missouri Dispute.

The brief Of the state of Nebraska
In the Nebraska-Missouri boundary
dispute has been filed In the supreme
court Of the United States by Attorney
General Prout. The litigation is to
settle the title to an is.-nd in the Mis-
souri, river lying between Nemaha
county, Nebraska, and Atchison Jul
ty, Missouri. At one time the island
was q part of the Nebraska mainland,
but in its wanderings the river cut it
off and threw 1t on the Missouri side
Of the channel. AS the island Is an en-
tire township It has been a subject
Of controversy for a number of years.
The contention of Nebraska is that
when the state was formed its east
ern boundary was the center of the
river channel of the state, while Mis-
souri, insists that the center of the
present channel is the real boundary
line.

was lucky enough to draw prize No. l
in the Rosebud lottery. is at Bonesteel
with his agent, Samuel Herrick. Nc
Cormick gives his home as Lincoln,
Neb.. and is now in the employ OF the
treasury department. He says 1t Is his
intention to pick out the best claim
on the reservation, near a townsite,
and that he will resign his position in
the department and farm his claim.
He denies absolutely having made ar
rangement with his agent or anybody
else regarding the disposition of the
claim.
Several people are preparing to con-
test his claim. In fact there is an Or
ganized gang OF claim-jumpers whose
method Is to accost a lucky drawer on
the train, get him to make a PROPOSE
ton to relinquish before witnesses and
then contest his claim.
The government officials who will
have charge of the filing have arrived
with five Washington clerks. A new
town has been i~naugurated. It is to be
located on the government reserve and
