that 1t was Impossible for them to
agree upon a verdict. In discharging
the jury Judge Bellinger called the at
tention of Francis J. Heney, who is
prosecuting the land fraud cases for
the Government, to the failure of the
jury to agree on verdict in the face
OF evidence which Judge Bellinger said
warranted but one verdict-that of
conviction. The court urged Heney to
summon the members of the jury be-
fore the Federal Grand Jury, that a
+. thorough investigation of the matter
might be made.
1t is reported that two of the jurors
arc friends of the defendant, Soren-
son.

nation having reached him that the

this city that Senator Mitchell will not
be brought to trial for at least a year.

the cases for the Government, when
shown the Washington dispatch to-day.
said:
IF any person made such a state

The prosecution refrained from causing

Special Dispatch to The Call.

DUBUQUE. Iowa, Jan. 21.-It was
fortunate for Miss Mamie Gaulson of
Fort Dodge that she had chicken for
dinner to-day. for she recovered pos
session of a much priced necklace, set
with precious stones, that she lost two
years ago. The chain was found
slowed away in the gizzard of the
fowl, where it evidently had been for
months, as it is quite worn in some
places.
Miss Gaulson's family recently
moved to town from a farm south OF
Gowrie. While picking flowers the
young woman lost her necklace. When
the family moved to town they sold
all but a few of their fowls and these
they killed, dressed, froze and packed
In barrel.
When the gizzard of the last, a fat
old hen, was opened, the inner lining
was cut into and q lustrous speck was
observed. Much to the surprise and
delight of the young woman, her pre-
cious necklace fell upon the table.

CHALLENGES
CHURCHILL
TO A DUEL
Edward ClarkSOn Fa-
VOrS His Fists as
Weapons.
Special Cable to The Call and New York
Herald. Copyright, 1905. by the New York
Herald Publishing Company.

LONDON, Jan. 21.-Much interest
is taken in London in the story of a
challenge to a pugilistic or wrestling
duel, addressed to Winston Churchill
by Edward Clarkson of Preston.
Churchill has not taken any notice of
Clarkson's letter. Indeed, the latter
could hardly have hoped for any cog
nizance to be taken of his truculent
epistle, for Clarkson not merely de-
waited from the principles of duello in
regard to what may be termed choice
of weapons, but he neglected the ini-
tial formalities.
Clarkson wrote, after making a. de-
mand for an apology for Churchilrs
remarks regarding the aged Member
of Parliament for Preston, that IL an
apology were not forthcoming he
(Clarkson) would be under the pain
full necessity of requesting Churchill
to fix time and place where they could
settle the matter in true Lancashire
fashion by Queensberry rules. Clark
sons letter concluded by saying that
If he failed to give Churchill the best
drubbing the latter ever had he would
feel ashamed of the name of Clark
son.
Churchill was described a few DAYS
ago as the ~best~hated man in English
politics, which is assuredly a distinc-
ton that does not often accrue to a
man of his years. On the other hand,
Churchill received no longer ago than
Thursday night last tribute such as
might have turned an older head. He
was chief guest at banquet of the
National Liberal Club, which is rare
in the annals of that institution. Men
who have grown old and done yeoman
service in the cause of British Liber-
alism gathered to do him honor and
for more than an hour listened with
rapt attention to speech which, even
Churchills enemies admitted, was
equal to his best and most brilliant
oratorical efforts.

on a motor cycle, which was wobbling
badly. Croker was driving his racer,
and started to turn out of the way OF
the motor cycle. AS he did so one OF

Gold Watch and Small Sum

From Travellers.
1t Is Believed That Bandits Intended
to Attack the Express Car
but Lacked the Courage.

PORTLAND, Or, Jan. 21.-What is
SUPPOSED to have been a plan to hold
up the Oregon Railroad and Navigation
Company's eastbound train No. 4,
known as the Spokane flyer, was partly
accomplished this evening just after
the train left the East Portland station.
Four masked men boarded the rear
platform of the last car at the East
Side depot. The track enters a dark
ravine few hundred feet south of the
depot. AS the train turned into the
gulch the four men entered the smok-
ing compartment and commanded the
occupants to throw up their hands. The
thieves proceeded to go through their
victims, from whom they secured about
500 and a gold watch.
When these few passengers had been
robbed the bandits nerve seemed to
have failed them. for they stopped the
train and jumped off, disappearing in
the heavy underground along the sides
of the gulch.
Word was sent to the city and county
authorities. who went at once to the
bridge and quickly organized a posse
which started in search of the thieves
