Wlckham owns a lot on North Sixth street
abutting on tho creek, opposite the Do
hanoy opera house, to which ho has been
hauling the onrth and old codar blocks

tity of this refuse matter has rolled Into
the creek and the authorities are deter

Doyle Ileconiea n Defendant,
James Doyle, plaintiff In the big mining
suit now on trial In tho district court, was
mado defendant yesterday In a suit brought
by T. A, Harding of Guthrie county, this
state, In which he asks that Doyle bo com
pelled to make an accounting In connection
with n certain mining transaction In which
Harding claims he and Doyle wero1 Inter
cited. Service was obtained upon Doyle
ytsterday morning while In the cotirthouse
attending the trial of his suit against Burns.
In his petition Harding alleges that on
or about April 17, 1897, he obtained a one
eighth Interest In a gold mlno known ns
tho Little May, In the Crlpplo Creek dis
trict, In what Is now Teller county, Colo
rado, from one Thomas Burke, by agreeing
to pay Burke's share of the Indebtedness
against the mine, which aggregated at that
tlmo $12,705.26. According to Harding,
Doyle and Burke owned a one-half Interest
In this mine and In some manner unknown
to him this Indebtedness had become
chargeable to them, they being obligated,
so he claims, to pay half nnd half alike.
Harding asserts that Doyle acknowledged
his, Harding's, agreement with Burke and
agreed that If Harding would place In his
hands the amount of Burko's share of the
Indebtedness he would contribute a like
sum and pay off the Indebtedness against
the mine.
Harding claims ho placed the S6.397.63
with Doyle, but not being a resident of
Colorado, was unable to give the payment
of the debts against the mine his personal
supervision and entrusted It to Doyle.
Hardin: asserts that Doyle not only
failed to contribute anything toward the
payment of the indebtedness, but also con
verted to his own tmo tho $6,D97.C3 ho ha'
paid. As n consequence the debts ngalns
the mine passed Into Judgment and execu
Hon And Harding lost bis Interest In th
mine.
lie asks that Doylo be required to pro
duce his hooks and papers relating to tho
mine and that he have Judgment for tho
$C,397.63 ndvanced by him to Doyle, with
Interest nt 8 per ocnt per annum.
No progress was made with tho Doyle
Burns suit yesterday and Judge Macv this
morning will decide whether tho motion of
tho defense for a continuance shall be sus
tained or whether simply n postponement
shall he had for n sufficient length of tlmo
to enable Burns to prepare his defense to
the amended petition of Doyle.

Ordered Cut Down.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES, Oct. 10.-(Spcelal.) Tho
Iowa supremo court today fixed tho limit
of value that may be placed on a man's
leg at JS.000. J. R. Wimbor, a brakcraan
on tho Iowa Central railway, had his leg
crushed In an nccldent and amputation was
necessary. Tho Jury in the case found
the railroad company responsible and gave
Wlmbcr a verdict for $14,500 for tho loss
of his leg. Wlmber was 38 years old and
in good health at tho time of tho acci
dent. In a similar case some years ago the
Iowa supreme court decided that a verdict
for $12,000 was excessive and that it
should bo cut down to J8.000. In the case
today the court sustains tho verdict In all
matters, save that It was regarded as ex
cessive, and directs that II be cut down
to $8,000, In lino with the former decision,
which Is thus taken to be a precedent, nnd
If tho defendant refuses to accept this
sura the caso must go back for new trial.
The court thus, for tho first time, adopts
a rule In regard to personal damage suits
and fixes a limit of value on a man's leg
lost In accident. The following are de
cisions of tho court announced today: ,

A promotion company known as tho Dcs
Moines & Iowa Northern Railroad company
has been seeking entrance to tho heart of
Des Moines through tho finest park In the
city nnd residents of that particular section
havo raised the strongest objections
to tho council granting the company
any rights through the park. Rut little was
known of the company or Its promoters
hero, though It was known that some right-of-way
work and surveying had been dono
In tho northern part of the state. A com
mittee waa appointed to mako an Investi
gation of tho company and report on
whether It was worthy of credence, nnd
this commlttco after making the Investiga
tion unanimously reports adversely to
granting tho company any privileges at this
time. Thin will practically put nn end to
the efforts of the company to secure a right
to go through the park. There havo beon
so many companies seeking special favors
that the policy has been agreed upon of
having an impartial investigation of each
ono before any favors aro shown.

MANCHESTER, la.. Oct. 10. (Special.)
A big republican rally of tho Third district
was held hero today, with meetings both
afternoon and evening. Special trains
brought many delegations from eastern
Iowa counties. In the nfternoon Hon. A. B.
Cummins, republican candidate for gov
ernor, and Senator Willlnm B. Allison
spoke to a largo crowd, and this evening
at the opera house Speaker D. n. Hender
son of Dubuque delivered an addrers on tho
political issues, In which ho defined hla
position with regard to various questions.
Among other things Colonel Henderson
enld:
Tho proposition Is before tho country tn
cut a pnftsnge way across tho Isthmus con
necting North nnd South America. I have
not a well dellned opinion ns between the
two routes. The, settlement should Del ng
to the engineers, but that n route ahou.d
bu mado I have no doubt. It will bo cconomv
end that, too, In tho near future. It will
build up our commerce. It will thtnw
North and South America practically into
ono country.
The question of building up the merctnnt
murine and tho shipping Interests of tlo
United States can no longer be neglected
hv thrn Innkltitr tn llin host IntrrOHtH 01
our country. Our rapidly growing produc
tlons, our vnsi surplus, our increuneu uu
maln, nil appeal for attention to this great
question. Competing natlonH have been una
aro giving millions annually to strengthen
tnclr ocean-carrying Intercuts. I confers
that I am not satisfied with uny legislation
thus far proposed to eongrers. but If n
wlso plan can be devised, looking to the
IntercHtB of our commerco and the country
not not T-uroly Individual interests), then it
should command careful, patriotic and fear
lens nttentlnn.
1 never wns n llrmcr believer In the doc
trine of protection than I am today. After
some threo months spent this summer In
several of the countries of Huropo, I am
only strengthened In my convictions, Somo
arc urging n revision of the tariff. I am
not now prepared to nay whether the situa
tion warrants rovlslon or not at tin time,
but If revision Is ontcred upon I feel us
did our lamented president, when he gave
out his splendid utterances nt Huffalo, that
any action taken "must not Interrupt our
home production." Not n word In thnt
splendid oration voices nn abandonment of
the protective" policy. In his speech he
favors reciprocal treaties, but only In ac
cordance with wisdom nnd a patriotic re
gard for the producing Interests of our own
country. This la In harmony with re
publican policies. It should bo carefully
considered, whether revision can bo wifely
made before It Is known what mny be ac
complished by these treaties. Tho repub
licans of Iowa do not demand nny Immedi
ate revision, but are In favor of a revision
when ndvlsabli'.
Senator Allison paid high tribute both
to President MoKlnley and President
Roosevelt. He stated that the most fertile
field for tho expansion of trado and the
development of our commerce Ilea In coun
tries south of us and with tho far enst
and that one of tho most potential and ef
fective measures In that direction la the
construction of an Istbmla'n canal uniting
