HAMILTON DECIDES
IN WISSMATH CASE
Power Company Loses on Motions
Filed in Record Damage Suit
To Take Appeal

Especial to The Gate CITY,
FORT MADISON, Iowa, Oct. IA
Judge w S. Hamilton yesterday filed
in the district court at FIT. Madison,
orders overruling the motion for a
new trial, motion In arrest OF judy
ment, and motion non obstante we're
dicto filed in behalf Of the Mississippi
River Power company against whom
the wissmath Packing company last
December obtained a judgment for
$50 100000. This action sustains the
verdict Of the jury rendered at FIT.
Madison. The case will probably be
appealed on account of the size Of the
verdict which was the amount allowed
for damages to an equity of redsmp-
ton after the foreclosure and sale of
the Wissmath hacking plant under a
mortgage. The Wissmath's failed t,
redeem and sued the power company.
Lawyers say It is the only case OF
the kind. No case like it is found in
any law reports.

Rev. G. P. Netherly in the De Smet
News: One of the mighty outstand-
ing features OF this worlds greatest
war is that it has been conducted en-
tirely by the soldiers and not by edi-
tors. General Lee complained bitter
ly to President Davis that the con-
fedracy had made a great mistake in
putting its able strategists in the
newspaper Offices instead OF placing
them at the head of troops. Well, our
friends over in Europe have not made

The Mississippi River in Danger.

a MONDAY luncheon at the Black
hawk hotel in Davenport, the mid
week conference on preparedness
opened this noon. Senator Kenyon of
Iowa, and W. NJ. Lewis OF the Navy
league were the principal speakers of
the day. Mr.. Lewis electrified his
hearers by declaring that the Mtssis-
sippi river and the great lakes were
as much a naval proposition as coast
lines and that Rock Island arsenal
and lake cities were not immune from
attack by light draft boats OF foreign
enemy IN case Of war.
He urged that the mouth OF the Mis-
sissippi river be properly fortified and
be made a naval base for the protec-
ton OF the Panama canal and that in
this case the middle west would be-
come the supply base of the navy,
Rock Island arsenal a store house and
manufacturing plant for naval supplies
and equipment and the coal fields of
Illinois. and the oil fields Of Texas, be
made the fuel supply OF the navy.
He urged naval board to supervise
the expenditure Of naval appropria.
lions. and greater preparedness in
both the army and the navy, that the
| lessons taught by the European wal
/ might be taken advantage of.
There will be a banquet this even
ing, with speakers OF national import
ance and tomorrow the program in
cludes a visit to the Rock Island ar
senal.
