LONG COURT FEUD ENDS
winner Is Heavy Loser in Litigation
That Lasted for Years.

"Winner" Is Heavy Loser in Litigation
That Lasted for Years.
The Donnelly -McArdle feud, a case
that has claimed the attention Of New
York courts for the past % years is
ended. Twenty-three years and one
month after Michael Donnelly, an iron
dealer of New York city, filed action
against Patrick McArdle, his brother
in-law Of Albany, the court Of appeals
sitting in Albany ruled that Donnelly
Is entitled to part Of his claim and
awarded him $4,000. An attempted
murder in a court room, pistols drawn
on the streets Of Albany, the expendi-
ture of vast sums Of money and the
array of eminent counsel in the fight
are several features that have made
the case stand out prominently in the
history Of New York Jurisprudence.
During the period of litigation ten
trials were conducted extending over
a period of 100 days. Ninety-five law
yers were engaged before 45 judges in
examining 249 witnesses. Seventeen
justices, 13 lawyers and "a witnesses
have died during the litigation, In
which Mr.. Donnelly spent $1S6,000 for
counsers fees and lost $4,000 to win
a verdict of $4,000. Mr.. McArdle spent
5000, 900 in counsels fees and lost. The
estimated cost Of New York Is $780,
900. Now Donnelly threatens to sue
several persons who, he alleges have
wronged him in causing the small
award stipulated in the verdict.
Mr. Donnelly and Mr.. McArdle mar
ried siste but the women never en-
tered into the feud. 1t Is said that once
Mrs. McArdle told Mr.. Donnelly that
her husband was losing confidence in
him as a partner in an extensive iron
business. Donnelly agreed to sign a
bill of sale to guarantee his good faith,
the bill to be null and void II the COM
pany known as M. Donnelly & Co., was
found to be solvent. AS further evil
dence Of good faith he did not read the
agreement presented by McArdle.
On this bill of sale and the effort OF
McArdle to take forcible possession OF
Donnelly's property in New York city
the litigation hinged. 1t was fought
back and forth through maze OF le-
gal complications and in many New
York courts until a final decision In
Albany.
In a trial before Justice Henry Bis
choff, Jr., in 1894, Donnelly is alleged
to have attempted to kill McArdle af-
ter an adverse decision had been rem
dered. In the battle many shots were
fired but no one was injured.
Later Donnelly and McArdle met
on the streets Of Albany and both
drew pistols. Friends prevented a duei
and further complications of the long
standing litigation.

If satisfactory arrangements can
bc perfected, the Cape is to enjoy
something new and novel in the
way Of sporting events.
Captain Gilbert of the North End
Rowing Club Of - Louis, was in
the city last week and expressed
great enthusiasm over the Cape as
an ideal location for the next annual
regatta of the Southwestern Rowing
Association which has for the three
past successive years been held at
Peoria, III. Captain Gilbert seemed
clatcd over the excellent river front,
both rs To the view and the open
distance in which the contests could
be held.
Before leaving the city he requested
| J. W. Gore one time "A prominent
member of the Mound City Rowing
Club, now in the employ of the shoe
factory at this place to interview
\. II. Hnchcy secretary Of the Com
mcrcal club, and have him confer
with John Schab of St Louis, prcsi-
dent of the Southwestern Amateur
Rowing Association, to the end that
the event might be brought to the
Cape this year.
The rcgattas are usually held in
the latter part of July or first Of
August and are always attended by
enthusiastic followings of the rcspcc-
tive clubs participating, and il the
Cape is successful in landing this
particular attraction it will not only
increase local interest in new sports
but it will bc boost to business
interests as well.
The association is composed Of
eight clubs, namely, Century Rowing
Club, Western Rowing Club st.
Louis Rowing Club, Mound City

WILSON A ONE-TERM MAN
Politics Assuming Unusually Ac-
tivity at Capital Because
of New Hope"
CwNI' News ServiccD

Washington, Feb. 4.-Rumor here
has 1t that Woodrow Wilson fears he
may have George w. Goethals as an
opponent in the next presidential cam
paign. 1t is by no means assured that
Mr.. Wilson will not later announce he
is pledged to the one-term principle
and therefore cannot consistently ac.
cept the nomination.
Republican leaders from time to
time have whispered the name GOeth.
ais in their conferences. Some of
them, however, even the extreme re.
dictionaries, still seem to have some
kind of hope that means will be
found to indorse Theodore Roosevelt
without being obliged to give over the
party name, Republican. The old
party's chieftains seem to think they
will be obliged to nominate somebody
having strong personal appeal II there
is to be any hope OF success.
Goethals May Be Willing.
1t has been intimated here and
there in Washington that men who
know the governor OF the Panama ca
nal zone think he has shown some
signs OF an awakening ambition to be
president Col. Goethals, Judging by
what he has done. probably has his
share OF wisdom, and, while army and
navy officers VIGOROUSLY have been
flounderers when they have entered
the swamp OF politics, Goethals posi-.
bly, might prove TO be an exception.
While the Republicans have been
whispering about Goethals and the
possibility of nominating him and
trusting to his supposed great per.
sonal popularity 10 pull him through,
Il has been told TO them also in whis-
pers that the zones governor is a Pro
gressive. In the present frame of
mind Of the Republican leaders the
fact that Goethals Is a Progressive
may make little difference, for all they
will have to do will be to knock the
capital out, spell progressive with a
small letter and add Republican with
a capital after an inserted hyphen.
Progressive as Nominee.
1t seems as certain as things can
be, so far in advance, that unless the
Democrats make some awful blunder
the Republican party next time will
nominate a man who has been con-
slstently progressive, or who can
prove that he has become a progress
sive even if his conversion came at a
late hour. 1t did not take Champ
Clarks word of prophecy to put vii,
liam +. Borah into the front rank Of
runners for the Republican prize. The
Cocktails matter remains yet to be
sounded to its depths.

Experiments have shown that cat

less dry matter than did the carcasses
OF cattle given pasture. but no ad-
ditional moisture. IL In a generally
accepted principle of feeding that II
costs more and more TO produce
meat as the moisture decreases and

this we are able TO deduce the fact
that II cost less TO grow the steers
that have plenty Of water. and so

duced a dry carcass.
What IL true In the cases OF steers

RESTOCKING THE HOG HERD

break Of Cholera Can BE Regarded
as Permanently Immune.

Farmers who have lost all or part
OF their hogs from cholera are asking
for advice as to the best way OF re.
stocking their herds. In this connec-
ton there are a number of things &C.
be kept in mind. All hogs that pass
through an outbreak OF cholera can
be regarded as being permanently I'm
mune. especially II they showed symp-
toms of the disease. However only a
small portion of a herd will survive
an outbreak unless the serum treat.
ment is employed. In herds treated
with serum. provided there were un-
doubted cases of cholera prevalent.
all hogs surviving can be reasonably
regarded as being immune. Close as.
ISOLATION with sick hogs at the time Of
treatment Is very essential.
Where Il is desired to bring new
hogs into the herd they should be vac
cinated before or at the time they are
placed on the infected premises.
Some breeders are selling brood sows
and boars guaranteed immune to
cholera.
