The Issue as Court Sees II.

But a moments thought con-
Yinces that it does not come within
any OF these cases. 1t is not mat
ter which goes TO the present value
OF the property at all; Il is, as con-
tended By the defendant, something
which could have been done before
the land was flooded, which If done
would have reduced the damage. I'm
der the law and rule applied In this
case, the plaintiffs could establish
their damage. by showing what the
property was worth before and after
The flooding. They are not required
TO anticipate claims which may be
made by the defendant as TO certain
things which could have been done
before the damage accrued TO avert
the threatened injury Plaintiffs
were not bound TO anticipate the
things which defendant would claim

injury.
1T appears TO be the very purpose

FORTUNE PAID
FOR BABE RUTH
Home Run King Reported Sold to
New York Yankee Team for
Price Of 100000 or
Greater.

NEW YORK, Jan 6.-Purchase of
Babe" Ruth, the home run king, by
the Yankees for a reported price Of
between 100000 and s125,000, is the
climatic step in the big money drive
for pennaat ii New York.
Harry FraZee, owner of the Red
Sox, who was forced to the sale be-
cause he could not meet the slugger's
salary demands, has not made known
how much Cobonels Rupert and Hus-
ton paid for the star hitter, fielder
and the biggest drawing card of the
major leagues.
Ii it was 1925 900, it viii run the
sum the Yankee management has
spent for playing strength in a few
years up to about s25o,000.
In the middle of last summers cam.
paign, the Yankees startled the base
ball world by buying another rebel
Red Sox star, Pitcher Carl Mays. for
a price reported at $50, 900, but il
was brought out in the litigation that
ensued that the Hub owners had
been paid $4,000 for the submarine
slabman Previous to that the yam
KEGS paid $4,000 for the services OF
Frank Home Run" Baker, s23. 500
for Lee Magee and a sizeable sum
for Duffy Lewis.
The Giants. the DOMINATES OF The
Yankees In the National league, were
held up last season as the most gIar.
ing example OF buying a pennaut.
But the Giants are crowded almost
into insignificance by the liberality OF
the coionels
Previous to this deal, the price tags
on Mays, iris Speaker, Eddie CoIItns
and Joe Jackson rode the crest OF
the financial wave at $50, 900. Alley
ander and kiIlefer drew SIS. 900 and
Strunk, Bush and Schang drew
$50. 900.
1t is q mooted question if pen
nant can be bought and il may be
proved thig year for the skeptics as
the Yankee Colonies say they are not
through with the Ruth deal, but are
out 70 assemble by means of much
cash, the greatest team that ever
played together
The reported purchase price of the
Babe Ia not as staggering as 1t looks
on paper. Reduced to cold business.

Suit Against Power Company for
Damages Gets New Trial In Or.
der from Judge Martin J.
Wade.
is AN OVERFLOW CASE
Damages are Claimed by Fort Madi.
son Man is Result of Sand
Pit Being
Flooded

Judge Martin ]. Wade has sus-
| tanned a motion for new trial In the
| case OF Joseph and William Jaeger
VS. the Mississippi River Power COM
pany. This is the sand pit case
/ which has had several hearings in
/ the federal court here and st Daren-
port and which has developed some
unusually interesting angles for q
| long drawn out case, including ale
cations OF contempt Of court which
came out OF the hearing at Dayen-
port.
The court sustains the motion and
has ordered a new trial on the
ground that attorneys for the plain
tiffs were negligent in presenting
court covered IN instructions TO the
jury The court cannot shut its
eyes to the situation in this case"
the motion reads The case was
not tried upon the theory submitted
to the jury in the Instructions OF the
court. This, OF course, is apparent.
The only way upon which the court
could now sustain the verdict would
be upon finding that the counsel for
the plaintiffs were negligent in not
presenting proof on this point"
In the memorandum for the order
for the new trial Judge Wade quotes
the code of Iowa On pleading, which
says that mo mitigating circum
stances shall be proved unless plead
ed. except such as are shown by or
grow out Of the testimony introduced
by the adverse party" The statute
is binding on the federal court. Go
ing on, the memorandum says that
the court is convinced the section
applies to the fact in the Jaeger case
The purpose Of pleading is 10 ad-
wise the other side and the court OF
the questions to be presented upon
a trial The very fact that IN all this
litigation, up TO practically the close
OF the last trial, the matter now IN
volved was not suggested indicated
the necessity of having matter pre-
scented by pleading. The dam
ages under the issues as held by the
court were TO be determined upon the
difference N value OF the PLAINTIFFS
farm before and after the flooding.
II this were matter as in DEBORAH
Mill company VS.. Greer and other
cases cited by counsel, which related
to the value of the property after the
flooding. these cases would apply: or
If 1t were matter which, as in the
DEBORAH Mill company, might be util-
ICED after the flooding to reduce the
damage the party suffers, It would
then be question inherent in the
proof Of the plaintiffs damages.

HEAR echo OF
zEBLEY MURDER

Question as TO what disposition the
State should make of the revolver
with which Lemuel Price. Negro, shot
and killed Patrolman Thomas L. Zebley
on November i3 last. was brought be-
fore Judge Rice in Court OF General
Sessions this morning when John f.
Lynn. representing Walter II. Hartlove'
who Identified the pistol as one taken
from his sporting goods store, made
application for the weapon.
Deputy Attorney General p. Warren
Green opposed the application, stating
that a soldier also has laid claim TO the
weapon. Another reason given for not
allowing the pistol to leave the States
possession was that as Price is still at
large, having escaped from the work
house while under sentence OF death, II
is uncertain as TO what developments
might take place In case the Negro is
apprehended Mr.. Green said Attorney
General Reinhardt will not permit the
pistol to be taken from his office.
When Mr.. Green brought out the
fact that the soldier has claimed the
weapon, Mr.. Lynn informed the court
that such was the case. The pistol had
been left with Mr. HartlOve to be re-
paired when il was stolen.
Mr.. Lynn then withdrew his appllca-
ton and stated his purpose OF follow
