An Instruction which recites material ev
Idrnco that It not before the Jury In sucl
n way n to Imply that the judge trying the
ensci undeistands that titch evidence is In
the tecord Is erioncous.
2. The effect of the evidence and the In
turferences deduclblc therefrom nre for the
Jury , and for the court to Instruct the Jury
that the evidence established a certain con
trovcrtod fnut In Issue Is an unwarrantec
assumption of tliu functions of the Jury.
3. Where , on the trial of n murder case In
which the Oefcnue Is temporary Insanity
the court undertakes to detail In an Instruc
tlon what evidence the Jury may consider
tti determining whether the prlroner know
the killing was .wrong . , the court must Im
partially recite the material evidence of
fereil both by the state and the prisoner to
Mistnln their respective theories of the horn

4. It Is prejudicial error for the court , In
such a case , to gioup together In an In

produced by the prisoner tending to traverse

Decrlnp & Co. against Wlsherd. Error
from Madison county. Atllrmed. Opinion
by Commissioner Rnijan.
It Is the duty of nn officer who seizes per
sonal property on a writ ot attachment to
take such property Into his actual posses
Mlon and to keep It under his control rim
have It forthcoming to answer the Judgmen
of the court ; for a neglect of'this duty
such olllecr and hip sureties are liable to ths
party Injured thereby.
2. Where nn officer seizes the property of
a defendant on n writ of attachment he
may lawfully return , ns costs in the attach
ment proceedings all the actual necessary
and reasonable charges and expenses which
he hns Incurred In the taking possession , re
moval and preservation of the attnchet
property.
3. On the discharge of an attachment the
costn and expenses Incident thereto shou'.c
ordinarily bo taxed to the party suing out
the attachment.
Nichols against State. Error from Sher
man county. Uevcised and remanded. Opin
ion by Commlsrloner Hagan.
The law presumes that the relation exist
ing between a bunk and Us customer Is that
of ordinary debtor and creditor.
2. Whether a deposit it made In a bank
by Its customer Is a general or special one
l a question of fact to be determined from
the Intention of the parties : but In the ab
sence of evidence tho. law presumes such n
depos't a general one.
3. Where a customer of a bnnk , who has
overdrawn and thus stands Indebted ir
open account to the bank , mnkes a general
deposit therein the presumption of law Is
that such deposit was made and received
toward the payment of such overdraft.
4 The object of the enactment of sections
C37 and CSS , Compiled Statute ? . 1805 , was to
prevent an Insolvent banking association
from borrowing money , that is , receiving
money on deposit and becoming debtor
therefor ; but said sections shouM not be so
construed ns to render nn olllcer of n bank
ing association guilty of a felony for per
mitting a debtor of the association to pay
his debt thereto , even though the associa
tion is at the time , to the officer's knowl
edge. Insolvent.
6. N was Indicted for receiving a deposit
In a bank of which ho was cashier , knowIng -
Ing at the tlmo that the bnnk was In-
Eolvcnt. The state , to sustaJn the Indlqt-
m > -nt , offered ovldenco which tended to show
the existence of the bank ; that N was Its
cahhler ; that It was insolvent , to his knowl
edge , on the 18th of February , 1895. and that
on said date one M deposited In said bank
Jll. N then offered to prove tlmt
when M made such deposit ho was over
drawn at the- bank $10.30. The court ex
cluded the offer. He'.d , that the evidence
offeied tended to show that the deposit
made by M and accepted by N was In
tended by the parties to apply toward the
payment of M's debt to the bank ; and that
so long ns N remained lawfully In charge of
the bank as Its cashier he had the right to
accept money In payment of any debt ow
ing by any person to the bank , and that
therefore the court erred In excluding the
evidence offered.
Hauschkalb et al against State. Error
from Ncmaha county. Reversed and re
manded. Opinion by Judge Norval.
In the discretion of the trial court the
names of additional witnesses may be In
dorsed by the county attorney on the In
formation after the filing thereof and before
the trial.
2. In such case , however , where a request
Is made to postpone the trial for twenty-
four hours to enable the defendant to meet
Iho testimony expected to bo given by the
icreonwhoso name Is so Indorsed , It Is an
abuse of discretion to deny such request , If
such witness examined on the trial and
gives material testimony for the state In
making out Its case In chief.

Mandamus. Opinion by Commissioner IrOn -
On nn nppllcatldn for a mandamus to
compel the removal of a county scat In pur
suance of the declared , result of a canvass
of the vote on the question of relocation ,
the court cannot go behind the returns and
nv-estlpate Issues of fraud and Illegality In
: ho manner of conducting the o ectlon.
2. An answer In such a case tendering
such Isbues presents no defense.
3. In nn appropriate case the court will
by mandamus enforce the prlma facie right
established by the canvass , but U will not
letermlno the ultimate right.

Opinion by Commissioner Irvine.
In an action ugalnst a railroad company
for negligently setting out a lire destroying
ilalntlff's property , the evidence without
contradiction showed that a certain engine
of the railroad company , which passed the
> ' .aco where the lire originated nt such a
Ime that It might Imvo net out the flre , wan
equipped with the most approved appliances
and was fn good condition , but there was no
lirect evidence that this engine did set out
the nre. and there was evidence that It was
sot out by a different engine.
Held , that the Issue of negligence In the
construction anil maintenance of the en-
Kino setting out the lira was properly sub-
nltted to the Jury.
2. Certain Instructions presenting no new
question of law , construed and held appli
cable to the evidence.
3. The construction of a railroad near
one's premises does not require one to for
bear the ordinary use of his. land , nor to
ake unusual precautions to guard against
he consequences of probable negligence on
he part of the tullroad company. .One Is
only required to tnko Huch precautions na
a petsou of reasonable prudence would take
o protect his property. ( Omaha Fair and

lltlon exists Independent of statutory pro
vision conferring It , nor docs the absence of
tatutory provision authorizing It render
ucli a condition In a contract Illegal or
void ,
2. A promise made by one person to an
other for the benefit qf a third person may
be enforced by such third person notwlth-
ntumllng the consideration did not move
directly from him.
3. The granting of a contract by the
Btate for construction of a building for It ,

fiufllclent consideration to tuttaln u promise
on the part of the contractor to pay for nil
abor and material 'supplied him In the per-
ormanco of the agreement.

tractor by which the payment of nil ac
counts for Inbor and material furnished
him for such purpose was secured was not
rendered nugatory , eo far as the liabilities
of the sureties wa concerned , to Inborcrs

NEW YORK , Jan. 19. Henry Clews , heat
of the banking house of Henry Clews &
Co. , writes of the situation In Wall street
The Wall street markets remain generally
quiet. There Is now almost an entire nb
scnce of the spirit of distrust evoked by
the Venezuela , affair , and It Is taken for
granted that the disposition on both sides
to settle the matter through arbitration , or
by conference between Great Britain am
Venezuela , will prevent any further dls
turbances of public confidence. There Is
also n disappearance of the London dis
trust toward our investments , which forcc <
homo such large amounts of stocks am
bonds Immediately after the president's
message , and , beyond nn Indisposition to
subscribe for the new bonds , nothing un
usual remains In our Ilnaticlal relations will
Great Britain.
In the Stock exchange the principal ob
stncle to business lies In the uncertainty
ns to the Incidental bearings of the sub
Bcrlptlons to the new loan. There hns been
a considerable contraction of bnnk loans
( $20,000,000 for the two weeks ending Jnnu-
nry 10) ) . in anticipation of n possible strin
gency In money when the subscriptions to
the bonds have to be paid , and also duo
to the fact that n largo amount of loans
mature at the end of this month , but prep
arations already mndo for these contin
gencies arc generally regarded ns largely
fulllclng to protQCt the market against any
important embarrassment under these pro
spective conditions. The change In the
terms of payment for the bonds nnnouncci
by Secretary Carlisle , namely , 20 per cent
on acceptance of the bids , and 10 per cent
on each llftecn days after , will materially
case the pressure of the operation upon the
money market. The payments will by this
means be extended over four months , and.
though It hns not yet been promised by
the secretary , It seems reasonable to ex
pect that , if any embarrassing stringency
should arisen portion of the payments will
bo authorized to be placed In the "deposit
ory banks" to the credit of the United
States treasury. Upon the whole , there
fore , the probabilities may be regarded as
against any embarrassing stringency being
caused by the loan operations , and yet ,
with the cautious tone existing In all quar
ters , thcro Is a disposition to postpone op
erations In the stock market until these
contingencies nre past. As to prices , how
ever , the feeling Is one of confidence , and
even the bears show little desire topul
themselves short on the market.
POPULAR LOAN A SUCCESS.
There Is every Indication that the sub
scriptions to the United States loan to ' /
opened February B will easily take up the
entire $100,000,000 bonds offered. The bond
syndicate , realizing thlfact , concluded
to step out , which , to say the least , Is a
magnanimous net. The announcement of
the dissolution of the syndicate , however ,
reyca s the fact that the syndicate had re
ceived subscriptions amounting to $200.000-
COO which amount was pledged to be paid
Into the United States treasury ns required ,
thus showing the tupply of gold in this
country ready to go Into government bonds
at a remunerative rntc.-fnnd which must be
a. surprise not only at home , but abroad.
After this exhibition of gold strength. It
will scnrcely bo fair for European bankers
and others to continue their predictions
that the United Stated government will
be unab.G to maintains gold payments. If
any further evidence Is wanting to show
the great financial1 ctrenglh of this country
as compared with others , the following
facts will be conclusive :

ENDORSES SHERAN'S PLAN.
The passage of tho. Increased revenue b'l !
now In the senate , will carry the govern
ment out of the. present dpflplonqy , rut.
Then if Congress , Vill pass Senalor her-
'
man's measurecompelllrlg the treasury to
retain all notes redeemed In gold until thev
can bo put back Into circulation through
an exchange for gold. It will put the govern
ment finances on a sound basis : assuming ,
of course , that some addition will be made
to the bank circulation to compensate for
the withholding of the legal tenders from
use. In such an event , the gold reserve
can drop down below $30,000,000 periodically
without any shaking of confidence. I con
sider Senator Sherman's proposition one
of the best that has yet been presented
In connection with reforming the currency ,
nnd It ought to opccdlly become law ; but
It Is necessary , of course , that the Increased
revenue measures should also pass , so that
the advantages which both measures give
can bo derived at the same time by the
government. If congress will pass these
two acts It will beyond doubt do away
with the necessity In the. futures for period
ical sales of bonds to provide for the gold
reserve.
If our dispute with England Is settled
without b'oodshed or dishonor on either
side , which appears to me Inevitable , then
the fact that we have had such a scran
and peacefully gotten over It will result
In more cordial and enduring friendly re
lations In the future than existed before
the rupture occurred. When It Is absolutely
known to be Bottled , the English people
will tumble over each other to buy our
government bonds.
England with her colonies would be more
exposed than the United States , In the
event of hostilities between the two na
tions. As an evidence of the extent of
England's colonies. It has been her boast
that the sun never sets on her posses
sions. Thcro Is no disguising the fact
that both countries are made the stronger
through the existence of mutual tleu of
friendship and good will. Such relations ,
however , cannot bo enduring without the
willingness of both parties to submit their
disputes to arbitration whenever requested
by cither side , The greatest advantage
In the maintenance of amlcablo relations
between England and America Is undoubt
edly on the side of England , nnd so long
ns we have such a connection with her ,
there Is no need for our seeking alliances
with other nations against her.
FINANCIAL CONDITION SOUND.
The response to public opinion by Secre
tary Cnr.lslc , In making the bond Issue
competitive with the public , Is certainly
creditable to him , and the fact that ho has
changed the mode of payment from the
one vrlglnally advertised , so that the fa
cilities are Increased to admit of subscrib
ing for the bonds , Is an evidence that the
secretory Is disposed to do all In his power
to- make the public subscription a great
success. To have continued with the
original mode of payment could not have
faded to shut out an Immense number of
subscriptions which wlM now bo made by
people of moderate means. The contrac
tion of $20,000,000 In loans by the banks
within two weeks and an Increase In their
surplus of $12K)0DOO ) within that time , which
brings It up to about { 30,000,000. la n change
made to provide for the bond Issue. Th3
stringency already produced and the consequent
quent liquidation IsUn a. largo measure dis
counting the effect of the operation pn
February 5 , when the awards will bo an
nounced nnd the first' Installment on the
bonds paid. I am quite of the opinion that
the aggregate ofsblds will be largely In
excess of the $ IOO KW < W , and will average
In price over 110 fortho ) , bonds. As an evi
dence that BUbscrlbeJB , will get a cheap
security even at 1J * . .wilch will make the
bonds yield over 3M per cent Interest , when
compared with 21i 'per * tent English consols
now selling at 107'4 the highest price on
record a United Stqtef 4 per cent thlrty-
vcar bond to bo equivalent to tlmt price
for consols should , w , n"bout 137 , The pres
ent price nt the Ncw-'rork Block exchange
of united States 4-30 bands Is lie , and only
retail quantities to IKKhad even nt that ;
and that this pricefB'uiustalncd In the face
of the $100,000,000 nwpjnow offered by the
government for rulifcriptlon Is pretty g od
ovldenco of the estimated market value of
the security , There"tvould be no dlfllculty
In eliciting subscrliitlbha for this loan n
number of times dVfnfrom Europe were It
not for the foreign titrraa speaking so dls-
parlngly of our currency , which Itf made
at the present time a , discouraging Influence
against American securities. The attitude
taken < s scarce'y fair considering the facts
In the case. Embodied In the above debt
table , together with the following state
ment , the amount of United States legal
tender obligations now out are aa follows :
Greenbacks $3 < GGS1,01G
In treasury 81.033403
Now outstanding . . . , $ M3G47G07

In treasury 23,277,235
Now outstanding , . . , , { 114,240,015
Greenbacks and Sherman , notes to

It would , therefore , appear to be absurd
on the part of the European press on this
nhowlng to Indulge In tush 111 forebodings
about the financial condition of our govern
ment.

MANCHESTER , Jan. 19. The' week's

'plentiful , but the limits were mostly en
tirely acceptable. India 19 supposed to be
awaiting the outcome of the Import duties
question. The cloth business wnq miscel

were fairly maintained bfcaure most of
the makers are more or less under con
tract. Yarns were about MB of n , cent

wag somewhat Improved , but snlcncio

LONDON , Jan. 19. Money continues
abundant , the Improved political outlook
compelling the bears to hurriedly close ac
counts , and this , together with the ndvcnt
of Investors to take advantage of the low
prices , caused an unusual activity on the
Stock exchange and n genet nl rise In
prices , the greatest spurt being In home

from 2 to G per cent on Increased dividends ,
showing a decided Improvement In trade.
International nnd South American stocks
were freely bought. Mines were much
firmer , but were still easily Influenced by
reports from South Africa. The American
market has shown a distinct recovery on
the prospect of an nmlcnblo settlement of

Prices oil Saturday.
CHICAGO , Jan. 18. Wheat advanced
steadily today , except for nbout half an
hour succeeding the first advance It made.
May touched Glc a bu. and closed nt
C0c , a gain of " c. Corn was Influenced by
wheat to the extent ofic. . Oats also rose
Vic. There was some disposition to take
profits of provisions , nnd much less buying
for country account , with a consequent
slight setback to price ? .
Wheat was decidedly the leader today. In
terest In provisions having died away , to n
certain extent. The temper of the wheat
market was a very uncertain one nt first ,
however , for after n sudden spurt at the
opening from GO c for May , up to G0c , It
hung back nnd fell again to GOVJc before an
hour .of the session nad passed. The bus
iness was largely local , but thcro were some
buying orders from St. Louis as the price
was going up , nnd selling orders from New
York , when It was on the fence arotmd
to GOyfcc. The New Yoric selling orders
he letting go of considerable lines of
long wheat by local bulls , brought about
the reaction referred to above , but the
market absorbed all the wheat offered dur
ing the decline , and was again up to G0c
by 11 o'clock. The second bulge did not
stop until from. COJic to G0 % hid been paid ,
and nfter that experience the short sellers
evinced a disposition to act with more cir
cumspection than they did on tne first rise.
The all rail purchases at Duluth yesterday
still lack confirmation , but the clcaiances
from the seaboard yesterday were heavy ,
and there was said to bo some foreign buyIng -
Ing at New York , and the same Interest was
said to bo buying freely for spring ship
ment nt western points. Hut the market
got Us chief strength from the growing ap
prehension that the situation was shaping
for another war scare. The report that a
British squadron was on the way to this
country caused alarm among shorts , and
thcro was active covering and good Invest
ment buying , while there was not much
wheat for sa'.e. The damp , rainy weather
in tills section and the cold wave following
closely upon It caused some apprehension
of damage , and was also an Important cle
rrcnt In creating the bullish feeling which
became so general In the last hour of the
session. The price hero rose to Olc about
twenty minutes from the ctose , nnd was
still bringing C0e when the closing bell
sounded. A heavy business was done.
Corn wi ? fairly active nnd firm In splto of
the lower provision market , from which It
has been obtaining Its tone lately. At no
time did the price for any delivery get be
low the figures it closed at yesterday. May
opened at 29c , against from 2Sic to 2Sfcc at
the close the day before. It worked up during
ingtha first bulge in wheat to from 29c to
. ' 229ic , then backitotrom 28)10 to 28TaO , get
ting up again on tha second rise In wheat
to 29c , and closed at that.
In oats the- feeling was firm In sympathy
with wheat and corn , and prices were VtC
higher on May and He up on other de
liveries. May started He hither , nt 19c ,
sold to 20',6e , and closed with sellers at that
price.
Huslncss In the pork pit was much smaller
than it was on the three previous days , but
Interest was still sulllclcnt to keep a good-
sized crowd ntound tne center of action.
There was an absence of outside support
however , and prices declined somewhat in
consequence. 1'rlccs started at a decline of
lOe in May pork and 2'/ic each In lard and
ribs. At the close , compared with yester
day's final llgurcs , May pork was ICc lower ,
Mny lard and ribs each lOc lower.

From the above It will be noted that whllo
the receipts of cattle for the past week wcra
larger , there was u heavy falling off In
hogy , ns compared with the previous week.
The receipts of hogs the. past week \vcro
only about one-half what they were during
the corresponding week of last year , but u
must be borne In mind tlmt the market n.
year ago was flooded with stuff which was
being shipped out of the country for the
want of fec.1. If comparisons nio made with
previous years , the thowing will not bo so
unfavorable.
CATTLE The week closed with about
the averngo run of cattle , the number on
sale today being about the cnmo ns a week
ago. Among the cnttlo on sale wore quite a
good many fairish corn fed steers , but norm
that were vciy choice.
The market was In the main rather unsat
isfactory. It was one of those dull , druggy
markets , devoid ot life and wanting In In
teresting features. In other words , It wua
a typical Saturday's market. The buyers
did not want many cattle , nnd they were
In no hurry about buying the few that
they did want. In the end , however , they
took the most of the cattle , and nt priced
not much different from yesterday. Wcnlc
at yesterday's close , would perhaps best
express the icnl situation.
The trade In cows and heifers was In
nbout the same condition as tlio steer trutlo
dull and without feature of Importance.
There was nothing of any Importance
doing In the feeder division of the yards
for the lack of fresh receipts.
The catUc market has suffered something
of a reverse during the past week. Prices
have fluctuated bnck and forth to some ex
tent , but taking the week ns a whole. . It Is
sufo to say that values have declined lufi'2Jc.
on beef steers. Prime corn-fed steers nro
selling ns low , or lower , than ever before
In the history of the dress-ed beef trade dur
ing the month of January. At the snmo
time thcro hns been n fair demand , and the
arrivals of each day have In most n'l cases
mot with prompt sale.
Butchers stock , such as cows nnd heifers ,
have not suffered ns much decline as Imvo
fat cattle , and 10020c would cover all tho-
loss of the week. Aside from the lower
prices , the trade on most days of the past
week has been of n very satisfactory
character , the demand being peed and the
local kllleis free buyers.
The decline in prices on fat cattle has
apparently had no effect upon the trade In
stockers and feeders , which s-old at strong
prices all the week. The receipts of cattle ,
of that desctlptlon have nst been very large ,
while there lias been a veiy fair demand ,
which hart been more than equal to the of-
fcilngs. Missouri nnd Iowa , especially , have
been good buyers , while n few cattle have
gene Into Nebraska. The. good demand hns
kept prices right up , and , if anything , they
nro a little higher nt the close of the week
If they have the quality.
HOGS In spite cf tlio fact tlmt U was a
Satuitlny and tlic IIORB uoUM lm\e to lie cnr-
iled over , tlic ilemniul was large oil the part ot
the packers nml the matltet mtule n tharp nil-
vnnco. Tim trodo opened higher and closed atlll
better , the average iiiKanocs for tlie dny amount
ing to about lOc , Tha tinde s ncltve at Iho
advance , nml the IIORS clianRt'd hands rapidly ,
and In n short time nfter tlic market opened
everything was sold. The popular price was J3.SO ,
as against 53.70 yesterday , but a Boot ! many
loads brouKht $3 & . - > , In fact , the bulk sold at
J3.8.1jf3.8J , us acalnst J3.70 > cnterdny.
Tile hoif market of Ilio past week has been
nil right for the nelllns Interests. The rccelpta
have been niodc-inlc , while there hns been *
very active demand. Trices Imvo steadily ad
vanced , and at the close of llic week they are
fully 30a higher than they were nt the close of
Iho previous week. At the opening of the weelt
IIOBS cold largely nt S3.435J3.-l7'.t , and advanced
every day nfter until the close of the week ,
wh < o the bulk went at $3EOif3.-5. There la very
llttlo preference , M > for us weight la concerned.
HI both Hunt and henvy lions bring top prices
than they were at the opening.
SliniSI' Thcro were no fresh receipts and
nothlnff to irtake a market. The trade In sheep
has been In very Rood condition all the week ,
'llio demand has been lartre for desirable mut
tons and the arrivals of such have met with
prompt sale at 631. Btrons prices. The paclc-
ra have been free buyers , nnd thnueh the rc-
celptn on Kume days have been quite largo for
t'lls market , they have be < > n none too large
