BRINGS SUIT FOR
HEAVY DAMAGES.
BIG CASE WILL BE TRIED 5Y
JUDGE AMIDON AT GRAND
FORKS TERM OF FEEDER
AL COURT.

Grand Forks, N. D., Oct. ia case
Of special interest to come up in the
United States court when that court is
opened here Nov. by Judge Amidon,
is that of Andrew Johnson of this city
against Carr Scott & Co. Damages
amounting to s20,267 are claimed by
the plaintiff for injuries received on
Sept. 81, 1908, as result of alleged de-
fects in an engine purchased from the
defendant corporation. The recovery of
Johnson, who was terribly scalded, and
who was dragged for a distance of
about block, during all of which time
steam and water enveloped him, was
most remarkable one. The accident
In question happened when the thresh-
ing rig was being moved
The complaint alleges that on Sept.
n, 1904, the plaintiff purchased of the
defendant corporation a twenty five
horse power traction engine of their
ordinary design and manufacture. He
further alleges that the engine was de-
fectively constructed in that there was
faulty construction of the draw head,
the part OF the machinery by which the
separator is attached to the engine and
moved from one place to another.
When the ACCIDENT in question occur
red the plaintiff alleges that the
threshing rig was being moved over
ordinary ground and that the draw
head and bolts pulled away from the
engine boiler in such a way as to al
low water and steam to pour out. When
the separator pulled away the
platform at the rear of the engine was
torn away and the plaintiff fell be-
tween the separator and the engine, the
boiling water and steam scalding him
in such a manner as to inf1ict perma-
nent injury. For these injuries he
asks damages amounting to $20,276.
The plaintiff is represented by Attor-
neys Skulason and Burtness of this
city, and Atty. /. N. Johnson Of Moor
head, Mimi, his brother.
The defendant corporation sets up a
defense of carelessness ON the part of
the plaintiff in care of the machine,
and the company is represented by At
torneys Turner and Murphy of Fargo

The HILL HORSE
CASE DISMISSED
c. n. HILL, CHARGED WITH
CRUELTY TO ANIMALS BY HU.
NAME SOCIETY, WON OUT IN
CASE IN COUNTY coURT-NoT
SUFFICIENT EVIDENCE.

The case Of the state humane So
ciety against c. Fl. Hill, Cass coun-
ty farmer, brought by William Blake,
state president of the society, was dis
missed by Judge Hanson in the coun-
ty court yesterday afternoon. The
charges preferred was cruelty to ami
mails and the court held there was not
sufficient evidence for conviction.
Yesterday afternoon the court room
was filled with interested spectators
and several officials of the humane So
ciety. During the proceedings Mr.
Hill was calm and denied utterly the
charges made against him. He waiv-
ed a jury trial allowing the dispute
to be settled By the county Judge.
Mr.. Hill stated that the horse, which
had been taken by Mr.. Blake to local
blacksmith shop, was not lame and
that it's split hoof was due to a cut
which had been received from barb
ed wire fence about nine years ago.
He explained to the court that he
kept the hoof properly trimmed as
well as the conditions would permit
from time to time. Being a farm
horse shoeing has been considered un-
necessary.
Several witnesses appeared for both
the state and the defense, but the
testimony given was not felt to be
sufficient for a conviction and the
court dismissed the case. A. T. Cole
appeared as counsel for Mr. Hill.

at the commercial club plans for the
raising of funds were made and today
these are being rapidly worked out
Individual postal cards will be mailed
out over the city and 1t is expected
that there will be about $500 secured
by this means. An appeal is made to
the mothers and daughters of Fargo
to help In swelling the amount of funds
to be sent out from Fargo to the suf-
ferers in the forest fire disaster.
w. ID. Sweet was made treasurer OF
the local organization and he will care
for the funds as they are received and
will see that they are forwarded i'm
mediately to the Red Cross society.
Anyone having contributions are asked
to send their money to the Red Cross
society, care of Mr.. Sweet, and it will
be promptly forwarded to the de-
vastated districts.
An Appeal Made.
At the meeting last evening the fol-
lowing appeal was made up by the
committee, which will be issued to the
residents of the city:
THE following appeal Is made to the
mothers and daughters of the city or
Fargo:
"The great distress and suffering
occasioned by the forest fires In north
ern Minnesota, the press accounts OF
which probably told only part OF the
sad tragedy, evidences plainly that the
greater part of the suffering Is being
borne by the women and children In
the fire swept country.
Therefore. at meeting called in re-
Spouse to Mayor v. r. Lovells procla-
nation, the citizens assembled nave
passed suitable resolutions appealing
to the mothers and daughters OF the
city OF Fargo, calling on them to urge
upon the heads of the families to Visit
one of the banks or other places where
subscription lists are open for contrl-
buttons and subscribe as their means
will permit.
"No one Is asked to contribute more
than he feels proper and right, put
small contributions will be as ac-
ceptable as the larger ones, and by the
means suggested many 81 contributions
will aid greatly and mean as much as
q few larger ones.
you, mothers and daughters, are
invited to subscribe wherever possible
to this fund, personally. and to aid IN
seeing that Fargo's contributions Is IN
keeping with her prosperity ana
wealth.
NO one should forget the liberal
response to Fargo's need at the time OF
the conflagration In 1898, when the
surrounding country contributed, espe-
cially with such liberal hand.
