In federal court yosteraay morning Judge Shiras, in referring to the railroad cases which are now pending against the five main truni lines entering at this point, stated that he had held a consultation with Judge Love, and that they had come to the conclusion that there was no use in waiting for a full bench, and that the question as to the remanding of the case to the state court could just as well be decided now as to wait until the May term at Des Moines, as it was not at all certain that Judge Caldwell would be there at that time. John N. Baldwin, one of the rafiroad attor- neys, wanted a time set for tho hearlug of the arguments pro and con. The judge stated that there was not one chance in o hunared that any argument that might be made i the case would affect him ono way or another, as he had already rendered one argument in a similar case, and he was not likely to change his mind. He was willing thut it should be argued, bowever, and_s0 lie set tomorrow would hear arguments. W. Carey of Milwaukee, J. Biythe of Burlington, T. S. Wright of Chicago, N. M. Hubhard of Cedar Rapids, will be present in the interests of the various roads which they represent, and will be assisted by Mr. John N. Baldwin of this city in the case.

Later his son, James Herrington, jr., sold the land, forzing the name of his father. The original deed on the land was rocorded and was_ among the as- sots of James Herrington.

The land in question is almost fabulour in value, as on it is situated the depot of the Chicago & Kock Island railway. gton It is not the extremes of heat and cold so much as the sudden _changes in temperaturo that cause certain climates to be uxhealthful, When, however, the system is invigorated with Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, these changes are rarely attended with injurious resuits, sl Chicagd's I'rainage Canal. Cmicago, March 25.—Chicago's drainage canal trustees today adopted resolutions virtually requesting the Illinois legislature to amend the law so that the canal need be only ten feet deep instead of fourteen to eighteen feet. President Prondergast, in an interview after the meeting, declared that the idea was visionary that Jake vessels might ever go down the Mississippi river or to the Illinois river. He held that ten foot depth would accommodate all vessels that would over pass up to Chicago through the 1liinois river, uo matter how greatly the latter stream is im- proved. Judge Prendergast said the proposed amendment would effect a saving of £25,000,- 000 in the vost of the cansl. Ten feet depth would empty the Chicaco river five times cvery twenty-four hours and tne dilution of the ‘sewage would be so great as to render the flow perfectly odorless. Peoria would be the only possivie sufferer, and, according to Judge Prendergast, the city of Chicago eould better afford to furnish Peoria_with a new water supply system than to build the canal under the present statute. The judge rvidi- culed the bill introduced in the legislature today to repeal the dramage law, and inti- mated that those making the proposition did not know what they were talking about. —_—— Deadbeats Held Up to Rid cule.
