WILLIAM BARNES AGAIN
ON THE WITNESS STAND
His Cross.Examination in Suit for
Libel Against Col. Roose-
welt Resumed.

SYRACUSE, n. T. May 17-William m
Barnes today resumed the witness
stand in the supreme court here in the
trial of his suit against Col. Roosevelt
for alleged libel to submit to further
cross exa animation at the hands of John
NJ. Bowers. chief counsel for Col Roose-
Welt. He followed to the stand a num-
Der of former members of the state
legislature. who gave testimony regard
ing the deadlock of 1911 over the cleo
tion of United States senator
One of these witnesses, William
keyes, said he talked with Mr.. Barnes
a bout the senatorial situation and
quoted Mr. Barnes as saying it would
be good idea If the republicans would
stand with the democratic insurgents
to elect an Independent democrat.
Others Heard on Same Topic.
Several other former legislators gave
testimony of similar nature. Among
them was Eugene NJ. Travis. state con-
troller and formerly a state senator.
Mr.. Travis attended the conference at
Mr.. Barnes house which has been told
bout by previous witnesses. He said
Mr.. Barnes asked him whether he could
get the republican legislators from
Long Island to vote for an independent
democrat. Witness said Mr. Barnes
stated that seemingly enough votes
could not be gathered" to elect an in
dependent democrat.
Mr.. Travis said he understood that
ended the matter.
Race Track Legislation.
Mr.. Barnes said he was politically
friendly to Gov. Hughes. He said
he did not regard him as a bulldozer
until Gov. Hughes sent message to
the legislature in 1910 urging the pas
sage of bill which had already been
defeated. Mr.. Barnes said he was in
terested in the bill to repeal the Percy
Grey racing law He said he took no
active interest in the defeat of the bill
until "after l went to Washington.
Mr.. Barnes apparently was referring
to visit he said he paid to Col. Roose-
Welt in the White House, when he lat
ter is said to have urged the defeat OF
the bill.
a report in the Evening Journal of
April IS, 1905. in which Mr.. Barnes
was quoted as opposing the repeal of
the race track legislation was read.
Mr.. Barnes said he believed the report
was correct. He said he remembered
making a speech April 81. 1905, and he
believed the newspaper report was sub
stantially a correct one. In the speech
Mr. Barnes was represented as assail-
ing Gov Hughes, who. it was said,
wanted the Percy-Grey racing law re-
pealed.

Regarded as Hopeful Sign.

What is regarded as one of the hope
full signs in the general situation is
the confidence reflected in Official and
diplomatic quarters that Germany will
meet the United States at least halfway
and certainly will suspend her subma-
rine attacks without warning during
the diplomatic correspondence.
In this connection there has been
much comment here over the recent an
nouncements. from London that Great
Britain did not understand from Ger
manys answer last March that the
principle of submarine warfare would
be abandoned. 1t was noted that the
same misunderstanding arose when the
German and British replies were re-
ceived to the American proposal for
the abandonment by Germany Of sub
marine warfare and the use Of mines,

many things in interest to your
self is. on the program for this
season. Hand i'm your name and
membership fees, which are very
small and in reach of everyone,
especially those who have cars of
their own.
I'm talking with this committee
they informed this paper that
with three hundred auto owners
in this city, that only the small
number of IS members have been
secured. Now this is an important
thing, and shouldn't be looked at
as mere club. There will be
many things brought up before
this club to discus and act upon,
and with a good number behind
any movement which may be
started, the easier for everyone.

Appealed and Lost Case

The case of Magdalena Wilson
VS.. the N. P. Ry. Co. has been af-
flrmed by the North Dakot sup
RENE court. 1t was appealed from
the district court of Stutzman
county i'm 1913 and appealed by
the railway company from a$2,-
600 Judgment rendered in favor Of
Mrs. Wilson for personal injuries
sustained by her while fighting a
prairie fire set by the railroad en-
gine and which threatened burning
the little home of herself and
family, two miles north of Vashti.
Mrs. Wilson is an elderly lady
When she saw the fire approach
ing she left her garden, carried
the furniture, bedding clothes,
groceries, dishes and books from
her house to the bare ground and
sent her little daughter to he
neighbors for help. She then set
to carrying water to the best fight
ing places. AS help arrived she
setabout to assist i'm fighting the
flames. The buildings were saw
ed but the hay and grain was all
lost. Fire fighting, as is always
the case, was fierce and when ov-
er and the danger to her little
abiding place was over, she under
took to carry back some of the
things taken from the house, and
was seized with great pains, fall
ing down, and suffering intensely
She underwent medical treatment
for a year attempting to recover,
but did not. She brought suit for
her injuries, won before Judge
Coffey and a jury here. The
company appealed with the result
of the case being affirmed.
This is the first case of the kind
in North Dakota. It's final de-
cision gives every one a right to
fight fire to save their property,
and if he or she is reasonable
abuot it and suffers personal in
jury as result of the negligence
then he or she may recover there
for. 1t is said that the great
number of suits against the rail-
way companies for fire losses
along the Pingree-Wilton branch
has resulted i'm the company put
ting new and better engines on
that branch which is appreciated
by the farmers Whereabouts.
