Fruit Gone.

After having italian summer weather
all winter this section got q touch Of
real winter on Monday Of this week. II
showed all that day until there was a
deep coat all over the ground and at
night the Thermometer started down and
struck bottom about II degrees below
freezing point. All the fruit was killed
in this section except perhaps few
varieties of hardy fruits that are such
late boomers that the buds had not
opened up yet. It seems a shame to
have the whole fruit crop destroyed, but
it is Of small value compared to the i'm
mense benefit which this heavy snowfall
has done to the farmers Of the country.
Having done Its worst the weather
turned warmer rapidly and is fine today.
The change came so quickly that stock
on the range did not suffer serious
damage.

johnson TRIAL.

With the twenty-fir anniversary OF
the birth Of Lamar only three weeks
off, and after living through all
the vicissitudes OF pioneering aad tn g
natural accumulation of hard charao-
ters that come with big boom without
any serious troubles. we are now for th .
first time in the history Of the town
having murder trial.
District court met on Monday to try
the case of Andrew johnson, charged
with the murder Of j. H. Frisbie, &C.
cording to adjournment Of last week,
and with special venire OF twenty five
jurors in attendance besides the regular
panel for the term. The entire day
Monday was occupied with arguments
on motion for a change Of venue and a
continuance. The motion was denied BY
the court, and the work of getting a
jury began on Tuesday morning. All
day yesterday was spent at this work,
and at night the following jurors had
been accepted by both sides: j. X.
Stevenson, A. v. Hornbeck, r. b. Ken
net, r. M. Hall, Chas. H. Wright, j. A..
Wise, @. w. Gentry and w. w. Ed
wards. Tom Ashlin had been accepted
by the defense but the prosecution had
not finished his examination when court
adjourned last evening.
A second venIre of twenty-five was
ordered by the Judge to be in court this
morning and subpoenas were served by
Constable Fred Burger. Coroner ]. H.
Kellogg has been appointed slisor to
take charge Of the jury on account Of
Sheriff Geo. H. Thomas being one Of the
witnesses in the case.
When court convened this morning
Juror AshlIn was excused and most of
the morning taken up in completing the
jury as follows: E. P. Thurston. A. L.
Scott, A. N. Turner and Smiley Irwin.
District Attorny A. w. McHendrie be-
gan his opening address to the jury be-
fore dinner and completed it soon after
the noon hour. The witnesses for the
state are now giving their testimony, and
from the number subpoenaed by both
sides there is every indication that the
case will last several days yet.

Young of Minnesota was adjudged in
contempt of court by Judge Lochran
of the United States district court
today, and fined $100, which he re-
fused to pay.
An appeal to the United States Sup
rene court will be taken in form of
a writ Of habeas corpus as Mr.. Young
has been remanded to the custody of
the United States marshall and the
question of whether the United States
court has the right to enjoin state
court from enforcing it's laws will thus
be finally disposed of.
The question involved is whether
an officer or a servant of the sove-
reign states, can be sued. 1t came up
in the attempt to enforce the com
modify freight law passed by the last
legislature. Judge Lochran enjoined
the attorney general from enforcing
the law, whereupon Attorney General
Young brought mandamus proceed
ings in the county court at st. Paul
to compel the railroads to obey the
state law.

FlLlPlNos DUB HIM OUR FUTURE
PRESIDENT.
PRESENTED WITH CUP
Secretary Urges Importance Of Educa.
tion and Warns Those Who Might
Attempt Cleavage Of TWO Peoples
Coming Together.
(Ry Associated Press.)

Manila, Oct. 21.-There was a dem
onstration here tonight in honor Of
Secretary Taft, the occasion being a
banquet arranged by a committee of
members of the general assembly. The
secretary was cheered loudly when in
troduced with the statement that
there is no man to whom the Philip
pines owe more than to the future
president of the United States"
The nationalists were especially
demonstrative. A silver loving cup of
native make was presented to the Sec
retary, who in extending his thanks
said he was gratified when he heard
President Osmena say that the Unit
ed States had kept it's every promise
to the Filipinos, both in letter and in
spirit. He urged the Importance Of
education in order to overcome the
tendencies to blindly follow one man.
He hoped for the adoption of a tariff
as low as possible and law limiting
the exports Of sugar and tobacco to
the United States.
This would do good, he said, and
would prevent the formation of an
other Cuba. where the absorption of
energy in the production Of one COM
modify leads to the control of the
masses by the few and is not in the
interest of good government. secre-
tary Taft said he was satisfied with
the condition of the Philippines. He
warned he natives against any who
might attempt cleavage of the two
nations coming together.

PREssMEN RESTRAINED FROM
INcITING STRIKE.
(By Associated Press.)

4 4 + + \ ss
Cincinnati, Oct. 21The temporary
injunction against the inciting OF d
strike by the International Pressmen's S
union for an eight-hour day was made
permanent today by United States
Judge Thompson, who held that such
action on the part Of union officers
would be breaking OF a valid con
tract.
The injunction was sought by the
United Typothetae of America and
certain publishing firms in New York,
Chicago, st. Louis and Massachusetts
to prevent the pressmen's union from
melting and carrying on strike,
which would break a contract entered
into last May and terminating Jan
uary, 1909.
Cannot Pay Benefits.
One of the points sought by the
petitioners was to enjoin the paying
Of strike benefits. The attorneys for
the union pleaded for the beneficiaries
Of the strike fund, but the court sus-
tanned the petition and the injunction
as issued forbids the payment of
strike benefits or any action by Of
ficers Of the union that would incite
strike in contrayention Of the con
tract.
Late this afternoon the union of
ficials filed a personal bond for s1O,-
900 binding them to obey the injunc-
ton.

FISH IN CONTROL.
Former President Believed to Have
From 10000 to 10000 More Votes
I Than Union Pacific Interests Una

Harrman's Attorney Consent to Ad-

u n y u s i
Chicago, Oct. -Stnyvesant Fish
early today secured an adjournment
Of the Illinois Central stockholders
meeting until December 49, The Har-
riman people agreed to the adjourn
ment, although they had previously
been anxious to push matters as rap
| idly as possible.
The decision to adjourn was the
result Of a conference held at
o'clock this morning between Mr..
Cromwell for Mr.. Hartman, and
Judge Farrar for Mr.. Fish. The over
lures came from Mr.. Cromwell.
The proxy committee has nearly fin
ished its work. It is believed that the
total number of votes to be reported
will be not far. from 100000. OF
these Mr.. Fish, according to excellent
authority, controls about 25O,OO0 and
Mr. Hartman 100000. and it is evi-
dent that Mr.. Hartman Is beaten un-
less he can bring into the contest
some of the 2S6,731 shares now en-
joined from voting.
Statement by Mr.. Fish.
Mr. Fish gave out statement to-
night in which ne claims to have had
a majority Of from 10000 to $4,000
when the count Of proxies was aban-
doned. The statement says:
"Our victory IS most gratifying. The
best we could have hoped for under
Judge Balls modification Of his order
was to prevent an election Of direct
ors at this time. This has not only
been accomplished, but we have also
secured a definite adjournment till
December Is.
when on Saturday it became appar-
ent to the Union Pacific company that
our majority was SO large that they
could not win, even if they secured
every remaining proxy, their tactics
for prolonging the session Of the
stockholders, meeting from day to
day became apparent. Late Saturday
night, realizing that the best interests
of the Illinois Central railroad de-
manded that the present session
should be closed, authorized the
making of an agreement between
counsel, which speaks for itself.
Would Have Elected.
j q a
"The agreement to adjourn gives
me all could have gained by using
the preponderance Of my votes and
constitutes an acknowledge BY \
the Hartman party Of their failure to X
now elect directors. For If they had
held more proxies than I they would
not have agreed to such an ad-
journment, but would ~have elected
their directors tomorrow and ended
the struggle. During the process Of
the official tally constantly refrained
from giving out figures, through
fear of misleading the public. The
official count, now being four-fifths
completed and being closed until De-
cember IS, can say SO far as the
count has been made it leaves me
clear and certain majority of some
where between so, 900 and $4,000 votes,
which in view of the Union Pacific
party having hunted for proxies for
two months before ] mailed my cir
cular on September 81, Is most salts
factory. From now on ] shall CON
tinue my quest for proxies with great
vigor, feeling sure of the support Of
the investing public" i

When the special service squadron,
the two monster new armored cruis-

Strange Act Of Self-Destruction al

Annapolis, Nd, Oct. 14.-Second
Lieutenant James H. Sutton, U. s. M.
c., is dead at the naval academy ma
rine barracks, his death resulting from
a 32-ealiber bullet fired into the right
side of the head. A board of inquiry
detailed by Superintendent Badger of
the naval academy has prepared a re-
port which will be submitted to the
navy department.
From the best information obtained,
Sutton, in company with Second Lieu
tenant r. u. Adams and e. P. Hooek-
Ter, returned to the marine camp at

ing attended dance given at the
academy. Shortly afterward Sutton
is said to have been discovered on the
road near by with a revolver in his
right hand and several fellow officers
attempted to disarm him. This they
succeeded in doing, but not before the
weapon was discharged in some man
ner and Lieutenant Adams and Lieu
tenant Hooker receied slight
wounds. Quick as flash, it is said
Sutton took from his blouse another
revolver and with this fired the fatal
shot into his brain.
Lieutenant Sutton was % years ole
