WHO PAYS THE BILL
William Killing Wants Railroad to
Stand Expense Of Fence
Construction
UNDER COAL VALLEY BRIDGES
Company Says Law Does Not Apply
In This Instance-Mat-
tiers in Court.

On reconvening the circuit court
| arguments on n demurrer filed by the
Rock Island Railway company
| through its attorneys, jackson, Hurst
& Stafford, to a suit brought by Viii
liam Killing, of Coal Valley, for $500
for the construction of fences along
the right OF way of the company.
There is an important legal point
involved. The statues say that rail-
roads shall fence their tracks, presum-
ably for the protection of life, and
where the company fails to do so, on
notification from the owner of contig-
nous property, the latter shall build
the fence and assess double the cost of
the work. with attorneys fees added.
against the corporation.
There are three bridges spanning
small creeks in Coal Valley adjoining
the property owned by Mr.. Killing. He
claims to have notified the railroad
company of the conditions there, point
ing out the legal requirements. Mr..
Killing wanted the company to fence
the right of way under the bridges to
shut off an entrance between his farm
and that of his neighbours through
which the cattle of both passed, tres
passing on one anOther's farms.
Position Of Company.
When the company persisted in ig-
noring his demands he proceeded to
build the fences in the places men-
toned. To recover his expense and
the additional amount that the law en-
titles him to he has brought suit in
the circuit court. The company does
not deny that the law requiring the
fencing of tracks, but maintains that
it does not apply in the instances cited
by Mr. killing, as the tracks are not so
situated that they endanger the lives
of his stock; that the tracks are built
on crossings, beneath which the stock
can pass in absolute safety. Mr.. Kill
ing's position is that the law intends
that the right of way shall be fenced,
and therefore the company should
build fences below the tracks where
the conditions are as they exist on his
premises. ]. T. Kenworthy represents
Mr. Killing.

MONROE DOCTRINE
Is IN JEOPARDY
United States May be Forced to Inter
fere With Affairs of Santo
Domingo.

Washington, ID. c., Jan. 1.-THE in
vention of the United States in Santo
Domingo is presaged by the arrival in
the island of Commander Albert c. Dill
lingham of the navy. Commander Dill
lingham is under instructions to en-
deaver, first. to restore peace and tran
guilty by mediating between the .'ins"
and outs as the authorities there
tersely term the government and the
revolutionists; and, second, to place
the revenues of the island in such a
condition that the claims of the Unit
ed States and European nations may
be promptly satisfied.
Representation made to Secretary
Hay by the ambassadors of certain
European states show that the pa
tience of their government is about
exhausted, and that unless the United
States brings Santo Domingo to its
sense they will interfere. There is.
consequently, some danger that the
Monroe doctrine may again be brought
into international discussion, to the
embarrassment of this country.
