Tho Chicago, Hurllngton & Qulncy rail
road, In company with other western rail

car famlno and this applies to Council
liluffs. Cattlo feeders In Missouri are buy
ing large quantities of grain and tho move
ment of corn from tho elevators hero to
Missouri and Kansas has begun, but tho
supply of cars 'Is lnadequato to meet tho
demand.
Missouri cattlo feeders nro buying all tho
way from 1,000 to 30,000 bushels of corn,
paying fiO cents and upward a bushel for
tho grain free on board at Council Muffs.
Tho Hurllngton Is experiencing much dim

from twenty to thirty cars a day hero, but
wo could easily handle 100 a day. as tho

wrlt was issued yesterday afternoon by enters In tim west, hnvinr i.non nri..n,
Judge Oreen on application of Hums' nt-
torneys In anticipation of James Doyle's
bringing suit against tho eistets of tho de
fendant to recover possession of tho stock
in the Portlnnd Gold Mining company
claimed by him and said to bo in their
possession.
Counsel Hughrs finished cross-examining
Mr. Hums shortly before 'tho noun :ccess
yesterday morning, and Mr. Thomas lock '
up tho direct examination again. During
the afternoon Mr. Hughes examined Hums
on his redirect examination. It has not yet
been decided whether Hums will bo placed
on tho stand this morning.
During tho cross-examination Counsel
Hughes confronted Hums with his sworn
answer In a suit brought by tlcorge S. Mc
Kay nnd others, Including John Unman, in
which Hums nllegcs that Doylo and Marnan
wore equal owners with him in tho Hob
Tail No. 2; that Doylu nnd Hnrnnn In their
own names with him applied for a patent
on this property nnd that thereforo th.y
should bo mado party defendants. On di
rect examination Hums testified that Doylo
never had any Interest In this claim. Hums
was further confronted with similar state
ment mado In his nnswer In a suit brought
In tho Colorado courts by Charles J. Cover
and I.nfe Fyffe against him. Tho date of
this answer waB July 1C, 1S93.
On redirect examination to offset tho ef
fect of this Inconsistency counsel for Hurus
introduced the complaint tiled by Hums on '
Juuc 23 nnd tho nniended complaint on
beptember H. 1833. in a suit against tho
Amazon Mining company, In which Is set
forth a statement by Hums to tho effect
that ho received a deed to tho Hob Tall No.
2 from O'Drlscoll, nnd has ever since been
and Is now owner of tho mine. Attornoy
Harrison. It was stated, drew up both tho
answer In tho McKay suit and the com
plaint In tho Amazon mining case, and that
such a glaring Inconsistency was through
orror on his part-nnd thnt suchn statement
as appenred in tho Mcltny suit nnswer was
Inconsistent with the conceded facts. Hums,
in nnswer to a question of his couuaol. said
ho never mndo such a stnttment to Attor
ney HarrUon.
Asked if ho had much huslnos with At
torney Harrison nnd whether he mot him
ofton, Hums said: "I saw Judgu Mnrri

raised n laugh.
