NEWS FROM COUNCIL BLUFFS Suit Which Brings Up the Eoom Days oi Lake Monawa. WESTON DID WELL IN SELLING HIS FARM Nevertheless lie Object * to Pitying Sonic Notes Which ISeprcKfiit HII Agent's Cuiumlfislnn Ovules Ills 'H Klgniiturc. A case was tried In the district court yes terday which was reminiscent of the boom days , when the prices of property around Lake Manawa flew to the moon and a man could sccuro no surer stopping stone to enormous wealth In his mind than a few lumps of dirt. It was the case of the Citi zens' bank against James Wcston , In which the bank Is trying to collect three notes of $37G each , given by Weston as security for the sale of a forty-acre tract of land between Manawa and the School for the Deaf to Minneapolis parties , one of whom was Charles P. Draslan , well known aa a real estate speculator In this city. The sale was engineered by E. II. 03ell In 1883 , and the prlco agreed upon by Weston and Odell was $5,000. Hut Odcll found that ho could get $ G,000 from the Minneapolis people ple , and ho took It , the extra $1,000 being regarded by him as a commission. In spite of the apparently exorbitant price charged the Minneapolis parties for land which In anything but boom times would not be worth more than a half of the $1CO an acre charged them , they were not suckers after all , for Draslan Immediately hlcJ himself oft to Eng land , and Milling a cockney Englishman named Watklns , with more dollars than ense , unloaded the forty-acre farm for the modest sum of $25,000. Dut the Minneapolis syndicate was not so prompt In making Its payments to Weston as It might have been , and when Odell struck Wcstnn for his commission Weston could not pay. So he executed three notes of $375 each and gave them to Odell as security. Odell turned the notes In to the Citizens * State bonk. Dut when the bank presented the notes Weston refused to honor them. Draslai had paid him a visit and paid off the whole $ G,000 at one clip. In thinking the mat ter over , Weston had decided that If there was any one. entitled to that commission It was himself for having had the good sense to buy the farm sen many years before. His wife's signature was appended to all three of the notes , and he claimed that she had never put It there , and consequently the notes were Invalid. He enjoined the collec tion of the notes , but the Injunction was dis solved by Judge McGee about a year ago , The bank Is now trying to collect the face of the notes. When they bought , the Minneapolis peopl < looked around and noticed that Manawc was situated to Council Bluffs and Omaht about the same as Lake Mlnnetonka tc Minneapolis and St. Paul , and they ptcturec to themselves , by the aid , of their powerfu Imaginations , Manawa ten jears from tha tlrno would bo a prosperous and populoui watering place , with land throughout tin vicinity worth $500 or $600 an acre jus like the land around Mlnnetonka , and the ; decided that they must have the lam whether or no. Dut as time passed aw a ; their dreams failed to become realities , am the $25,000 watering place site Is now rente < as a cow pasture , and Mr. Watklns , csq , , o England , receives as rent the sum of $ : per acre. H Is very doubtful If the farn could be sold for $40 an acre now. / large part of It Is taken up with a slough which Is not worth anything , even for pas turage purposes.

RAILROAD WINS A' BIG CASE Iowa Supreme Ocurt Decided dh Important Point in Commercial Law. STATE'S ' POWER TO REGULATE CARRIER : Hlcht Wns Never Confrrrcil by the Con stitution with Heferenec to Inter * Into AfTulrJ-tongrcsi 'Con tests this Exclusively. DnS MOINCS , la. , May 28. ( Special Tele gram. ) The Iowa supreme court today de cided on important Intcrstato commerce case of which the following Is the title and main points of opinion ; Isaac Gallon , appellant , against the Chicago , Rock Island & Pacific Railway company ; action to recover over charges for freight hslppcd over defendant's line ot railway. Judgment on demurrer against plaintiff , and appeals. The question presented by the demurrer was whether overcharges by n common carrier on Inter state shipments made prior to the taking effect of the Interstate commerce act can be recovered. Forty typewritten pags are dc voted to proving this point , that there Is no national common law that the state cannot regulate Interstate commerce In the absenct ot congressional action , either by express statutory enactment or through the medium of the common law , which may be revised as In force In such state ; that the right claimed In this case would amount to a regulation of commerce between the state as defined by the federal supreme court , and hence Is In controvontlon of the federal constitution. The demurrer was properly overruled and the decision below is affirmed. The demurrer was properly overruled and the decision below Is affirmed. The court holds that before congress legislated on the subject of Interstate commerce , no state statute could effect charges or discrimina tions made by a carrier In respect to such shipments ; that right Is to be given by the constitution , the laws ot the United States or its treaties , but remedies for such rights are to be pursued In accordance with the course of the common law. The constitution does not confer on the courts of the United States full common law Jurisdiction , in a national sense , as claimed by appellant. The common law Is the common law of each state , as It was of the cojpny before the revolutionary war. The power to regulate all commerce Is given exclusively to congress , and the com mon law right , If any , Is thereby taken away. The states In any event have no power to regulate Interstate commerce. SIKKINU A NOKIIIKIIX OUTI.UT llurllngton Figures on a Const Terminal If Shut Out by IIIII. The alliance of the Northern Pacific with the Great Northern Is liable to bring about changes In the traffic contract with the Burlington and It may be necessary for the B. & M. to protect Its western Interests by paralleling the Northern Pacific tracks west of Billings In order to gain entrance Into the northwest country. When J. M. Hannaford , general traffic manager of the Northern Pa cific , was In Omaha a fortnight ago , talking to a friend , he Is represented to have said that the traffic ; arrangements with the B. & M. were of such a diameter as to give his company considerable annoyance. And to know Just what to do with the contract was bothering officials not a little. This un certainty grows out of the inroads which the Burlington has been making on the freight haul for Puget Sound points , much of which has heretofore gone by way of St. Paul. Now that Jim Hill has obtained a footing with the Northern Pacific and will virtually dic tate Us policy , the knowing ones believe that the contract with the Burlington will be an nulled. But the Burlington has already rea lized the Importance of a line between Chicago cage and Puget sound , and It Is understood a corps of surveyors are already In the field running a line west from Billings. Whether the objective point Is Seattle , Is hard to de termine , but It Is pretty thoroughly settled that the B , & M. will not be placed at the mercy of a northern lino. II. r. H. & N.

It Is surprising what a safeguard a healthy stomach Is against disease. And again It Is not so surprising when It Is remembered that the only way wo get pure blood , strong nerves and firm flesh Is from wholesome food , well digested. It Is the half digested food that causes the mischief. When the stomach Is weak , slow , Inactive the foot lies In the stomach for hours fermenting , forming gasscs which poison the blood am the whole system , causing headache , pains In the back , shoulder blades and chest , loss of appetite , palpitation , bllllousness. The safest cute for Indigestion Is Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets , composed of vegetable essences , fruit salts , pure pepsin and Goldcr Seal. Dissolve one or two of these tablets In the mouth after each meal. They ar pleasant tasting and mingling with the food so assist the weak stomach that the food I perfectly digested before It has time to fcr mcnt.
