WAUSAU-The sum of six cents
composed the damage awarded to John
Lemke by a jury, instead of $1,000 as
asked by him. Lemke brought suit
against the city for damages which he
alleged he received on a defective
highway.

would be dead instead of recovering

Eek wrote a letter to the janitCr an

the janitor burst open Eck's door and
found his unconscious and with one
end of the gas tube in his mouth. In

GENERAL NEWS.

WASHINGTON-The U. S. navy de-
partment may appeal to congress to
modify the liability act of 1908 on the
ground that the navy yard workmen
persist in disregarding the measures
taken by the authorities for their pro-
lection against injury. 1t is said that
although 300 pairs of protective Cog
giles were provided at the Mare Island
navy yard to save the eyes Of the work
ers in the furnace shops, inspectors
lately could not find pair in use.
Nearly 10000 navey yard employees
we're treated last year by the naval sur
geons for various injuries and there is
some complaint that the generosity of
the government has been abused.
It is suggested that the existing act
be amended so as to make sure that
the employees are physically fit before
going to work and to provide that they
shall receive only so per cent, instead
of full pay, during disability.

SHINGTON-Some radical re-
auctions in duties are looked for in the
Democratic steel tariff schedule, which
the house ways and means committee
probably will have ready for submits
sion about the middle of this month.
1t is stated that in many instances the
Payne law rates will be cut in half and
that the highest rates of duty allowed
on any product of steel or iron will not
be more than 35 per cent ad valorem.
The greatest fight probably will be
over the duty on tin plate, which, it is
understood, is to be cut from $1.2O to
Is cents hundred pounds. Iron ore
is expected to go on the free list along
with all manufactures of steel and iron
that wer made duty free in the far
mers' free list of the extra session.

NEW YORK, Oct 16.-Heavy buying of

The overnight strength was attributed
in fargo measure to announcement of the

The curb market was strong

London were steady, particularly the lat

Strength was shown in the general list

FOREIGN SITUATION CAUSES
NARROW TRADING IN GRAIN

CHICAGO, Oct 16.-The Inter- Ocean
says
Security markets have had their liqui-
dalton and war scare, but the grain trade
is constantly on edge, fearing new de-
velopments of an unfavorable character.
The trade in general has assumed a
scalpng position and is operating for
small profits. The war scare has pre-
vented heavy selling of corn by the
bears, and no one has out big line OF
shorts, while the best interests in the
trade are inclined to be bullish;, believing
that reserves of old corn will be well
cleaned out and the movement of new
corn will be taken care of in the first two
or three months, which will prevent accu-
mutation OF supplies.
