The de- fenso called 1ts first wituess yosterday aftor- noon, and it Is extremely doubtful whether the case goes to the jury to-morrow, A small, momentary spasm of excitement was aroused wheun the court issued a bench war rant for the urrest of W. J. Smith, It seems that Swith was subprenaed as a ‘witness by the plaitift, but he failed to put n an appoarance. No kick was made by the lalutiff, but when the dcfense fouud out ow matters stood, they concludea that Bmuth must be a material witness, and accordingly demanded his appearance. The court acquiesced to the demand, and Smith will be arraigued for contempt of court, in neglecting Lo obey the subpwna, as $00u a8 he arrives. ‘Lhis was the only incident that occurred in court duriug the entire day to disturb the opprossive monotony. e Steam and hot water beating, fivst-class plumbing.

The city apparently was never in a more healthful condition, and the disposition is to charge the spread of this disease (o the lax and careless manner in which the health authorities have enforced the ;quarantine regulations, There have been several cases of undoubted diphtheria in the city, and it is asserted that there were very slight quarantine restrictions placed upon those who were in daily contact with the patients, It is reported that children from infected families were permitted to at- tend the public schools, Whether this is true or untrue, the board of health should take immediate steps to stamp out the disease by enforcing the strictest quarantine regulations. ‘Those whose funerals occurred yesterday were Florence, the eleven-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. A.

T. Thatener, of Chicago, has come into this oity and_established a retail coal business, whon iie has alwaye lierotofore been engaged solely as a wholesale coke and coal merchant. Itis an unusual and unbusiness-like pro- ceeding for a wholesale merchant to come into a place where he has been patronized by the retuil dealers, and bogin to sell to their oustomer: And so in the case of Mr. ‘Thatcher, thore must be a reason for this. Why is it that he has for years had his wholesale houso here, and now all at once comes in us a retail dealor, offering coal at cut figures—at figures, in’ fact, 75 conts per ton less than ho hus been offering coal for to the retail dealors of Couucil Bluffsi He must have some object in this other than the mere desiro to engage in a lezitimate busi. ness. Tho facts in the case are these: A. T. Thatcher has been engaged in the wholesale business. The dealers Lave been patronjzing him. In fact, many of them gave him their patronage until they came near being ruined. A large portion of the coal sold to them by Mr. Thutcher was of a very inferior quality. It would not compete with other coals. The consumers complained of it, indeed, fre- quently rejected the coal, so that for self- protection and the protection of their pa- trons they were obliged to withdraw their trade from Mr. Thatcher, and now, as a final means of selling this inferior coal, ana in order to compel the retail dealers to buy their coal from him he comes into the retail mar- ket and offers coal to the consumers at 75 cents per ton less than he was offering it to dealers. He endeavors in this way to coerce the retail dealers of Council Bluffs intotaking his inferior grade of coal and put- ting 1u out to their consumers, Now, will the people of Council Bluffs allow themsclves to be bulldozed by any such proceedings as thesei Will y submit to thist Will they tolerate it? Wil they putronize a firm like this, and by so doing foree the legitimate re tail dealers of their city into securing a poor quality of coal with which to rupply them and with which to meet this unreasonubly low cut in coall We think vot. Good coal in Chicago is now quoted at wholosale at £5.50 per ton. The freight from Chicago bere is £3.20 per ton, making the present actual cost of hard coal to the dealer here $5.70 per ton. S0 1t can be clearly seen that the present prices on hard coul estab- hshed by Mr. Thatcher in this city are not in accordance with legitimate business princi- ples, Sarr & KNoTTs, Couvcin Brores Fuer Co., D.

T CHEETAHS, Hunting Deer With Tam: L:opards in Central India. The following accountof hunting with tame leopards, of the species called the cheetah, at Dhar,1n central India, is contributed to the Illustrated London News, with an illustratton, by Colonel Ward Bennitt. “We were staying with the maharajah of Dhar, anp one day he said we should seea cheetah-hunt; so we started on horseback about 4 o’clock in the afternoon. The cheetals looked lovely and seemed quite tame, follow- lowing the snikavis like dogs. We went about five miles over bad ground, and it was exceedingly hot. At iast, to our delight, we saw a herd of deer about a mile off,and we atonce stopped, while the shikari went forward with tyo cheetahs. Presently one of the cheetahs stood still, peered about and lay down, slowly whisking his tail from side to side. "The men said ‘he has seen the deer.” Soon he got again and wentafter his companion, seemed to communicate to him th decr were in sight. Then they both I down at once. After a little time the got up and began stalking the deer through the grass. It was very diffieult to distinguish the cheetahs, as they were much the same color as the ground. Presently the acer became aware son thing was up and stopped and looked about; then suddenly they all got to- gether and began trotting off, followed at once by the cheetahs, who, although far behind, gained ground at every stride, and we could sce they had each singled out a black buck, taking no no- tice of the rest of the herd tearing off in all directions. Luckily, they came toward us and we couldsed one cheetal give a high spring, about fifteen yards, and seize his buck by the throat and roll itover. We did not look any more; we knew nothing would induce the cheetah to leave its prey till the buck’s throat was cut and the animal enticed away with a ladleful of blood, The othel cheetah, having missed waen it sprang, guve up the chase and came straight 5 with his tail be- : vore very lucky to see the hunt, for I find many old In- dians have never had the good fortune to witness one, aid the maharajuh sel- dom allows his cheetahs to indulge in this sport,” E el A REMARKABLE CASE, Death of a Man Who Lived Nearly a Month With a Broken Neck. After living with a broken neck for twenty-fiyve days, Caleb B, Tozier died in Cooper hospital, Camden, yesterday, says the Philadelphin Record. By his bedside when death came were the faithful young woman to whom he was engaged to be married, Miss Missmer and Tozier's sister. The grief of the former was heart-rending. She had for two weeks expected her lover to re- cover, 8o favorable were his symptoms and they both taiked hopefully of their approaching marriage. During the time Tozier was at the hospital Miss Miss- mer was by his bedside almost continus- ously, and she was assiduous in earing for the injured man., Tozier’s case has excited much interest among medical men, his long existence under the eiv cumstances being considered extremely remarkable, The victim’s strong de- termination to live prolonged his life counsiderably. Most of the time he was paralyzed from the shoulders down. Death is thought to have resulted from exhaustion, the body having wasted away to a mere shadow. A post mortem xamination showed that the vertebre were fracturad in front of the neck as well as in the back, where two pieces ot the verlebrie, each two and a half inches long, were removed, —-— ty Hall Park.

(YT The Murderer of Haddock Will Get No Now Trial. RULING OF THE SUPREME COURT A Big Day at the Corn Palace Festi- val-The W. C. T. U. Conven- tion—Close ot the Reunion, The Supreme Court, Des Morxes, Ia, Oct. |Special Tele- gram to Tk Bee.|—The supreme court to- day took advance ground on the question of qualifications of jurors in afirming the de- cision of Judge G. W. Wakeficld, of the Woodbury district court, 1n the case of the state of Iowa vs Fred Munchrath jr, con- victed of the Haddock murder, Fred Munch- rath jr,, John Arensdorf and others were jointly indicted for the murder of George C. Haddock, committed in Siwoux City on the third day of August, 1886, Separate tiials were demanded. The first trial of Arensdorf was held at the March term, 1887, of the Woodbury district court, and resulted in o disagreoment of the jury. The trial of Munchrath was com- menced on the 7th of the next September, and resulted in nis conviction of the erime of mansiaughter. A motion for a new triul was overruled and he was adjudged to be iw prisoned in the penitentiary at Fort Madison for four years and to pay costs of trial, tuxed at ‘§06.465. From that judgment Munchrath appealed on the ground that threc of the jurors were men who Lad been challenged for cause. Judge Robinson de- livers the opinion of the supreme court. Ho says thut several of the challenges for cause were insufficient for the reason that the necessary facts are mot stated. Juror Gordon, who was challenged, tesutied that he had no knowledge of the facts in the case excepting what he hud read and heard; that he read ail testimony auring the trial of Arensdorf; that ho had been acquaited with Haddock and attended his chureh; that he had formed an opinion as to the guilt or innocence of defendunt which he then re- tained, and that he would go to the jury- room with that opinion in his mind, The su- preme court holds that it was the duty of the defendant to “distinctly specify” which of the several facts disclosed in the juror’s an- swers he relied on as a cause of challenge. The chatlenze of Jurors Luce, Barr, Good- rich and Allen were in substance the same, and the ruling of the supreme court in regard to them the same. 'T'he other challenges for cause were on the ground that tney had read what was claimed Lo be all the evidence on the trial of Arensdorf as reported in the Sioux City papers, and had talked about the case and formed an opinion in regard to the guilt or innocence of the defendant. The supreme court rules that a person otherwise unobjectionable is not disqualified frow act- ing as juror on the trial of one defendant be- cause he has formed an opinion as to his guilt or innocence from having read what 18 claimed to bé a full report of the evidence given ou the trial of another defendant for the same offense. Other opinions were: G. Bender, appellant, vs C. A, Been, Ring- old district, reversed; opinion by Beck Wiiliam B. McGarrish vs James Dwyer, appellant, Henry district, aflivimed; opinion by Grauger, The Corn Palace Festival.

They have great trouble with the regulation size bed, as their legs from the knees down generally hang over tne footboard. Rooins were secured for them, however, and the giants will sleep on the floor. e WANTS FIFE IN CANADA. Queen Victoria Prefers Her Son-in- Law for Governor-General. O1TAWA, Ont., Oct. 8.—[Svecial Telegram to Tue Ben.]—-It is binted in oficial circles that Lord Stanley is not going to remain his full term of office as governor-gencral of Canada, but that he will return to England to take part in the next. general elections for the British parhament as a sunporter of Lord Salisbury and prospectiye member of Nis cabinet. Itis saia that Queen Victoria is anxious that the Earl of Iife, her new grangson, shall be assigned to the post ot governor-general of the dominion. It was through the interference of the queon that her son-in-law, leord Lorne, was scut to Canada instead of the Duke of Mauchester, who had been previously nominated for the position, It is understood that parliament will be asked next session to malke an appropriation of £1,000,000 for the erection of a suitable residence for the governor-general of Otta- wa. The present old rookery hnd private residence patched up into the Vice regal res- idence, known as Rideau Hall, has been con- demned by Dufferin, Lorne, Lansdowne and Stanicy as unfit for habitation and as a dis- grace to the dominion. - RING RULE RE 'UDIATED. Baltimore's ¥Young Men's Democratic Club Leaves the Party. Bavtyoxe, Md., Oet, 3.—[Special Tele- gram to Tur Bee.|—The Young Men's Democratic club, a o and influential political orgunization m the eastern section of this city, has broken away from the party whose name it bears and cast its lot with the republicans. The resolutions adopted by the club tell very clearly the disgust which the operations of the democratic man; created among the sell-respecting men of the party. They say: The present managoment of the democr party bus ceased to represent the will of t party, and by long years of misrule has brought it into disfavor with the peonle, whose interests they subordinate (o their own selfish schemes. The party primaries no longer give voice to the wishes of the party, but_ merely record the will of the undemo- cratic ring which controls them by the most unblushing frauds, Theretore, we, members of tne Young Men’s Demoeratic club of Baltimore, will not support, but will, by all legitimate means en- deavor 'to defeat the ticket now imposed upon the democratic party by the ring which misrepresents.
