Court AotOH.
In the district court yesterday the case
of the State of Iowa against Isaac Dlcker-
fion was continued by stipulation In
definitely and the prospects arc that ho will
never stand trial again. Isaac Dlckerson
v.ns vice president of the defunct Cass
County bank of Atlantic and the criminal
ihargo against him was In connection with
the failure of the bank. At the former
trial held before Judge Thornell two years
ngo the Jury failed to agree. Since then
Dlckerson , who Is now living in Missouri ,
lias rapidly failed in health and It Is very
doubtful If he will ever bo able to como Into
court again.
James Snodderly was granted a divorce
from his wife , Mary Snoddorly , on the
grounds of Inhuman treatment.
The suit of U. J. Morgan against C. R.
Nicholson was dismissed at plaintiff's cost.
Among the Indictments returned by the
Brand jury was ono against Mlko Kgan , a
fraloon keeper on South Main street , who had
omitted to pay his license. Ho was ar
rested and gave bonds for his appearance.
Another Indictment was against W. C. Ut-
torback , the well known livery man on Bry-
nnt street. He la charged with obtaining
property and money under false pretenses
from Pat Fccney. In 1895 Fecney owned a
half Interest In the livery stable In the old
Dohany block on Bryant street and ho
claims that Uttcrback Induced him to trade
Ms Interest and glvo $500 cash additional
In exchange for ICO acres of land In Mis
souri which the latter cfalmcd to own
Fcency charges Uttcrback with defrauding
him and alleges that there Is no such land
ns that which Uttcrback traded him. Ut-
iferback sajs that the land cnrao to him
through another trade , but that ho had
never looked It up and was not certain
whether thcro was such land and claims he
eo Informed Fccney when making the trade.
The case of the state of Iowa against
Weeks and others was dismissed. The suit
was Instituted for non-pnymenl ! of liquor
license about a year ago , but the defendants
lia\o since compiled with the law and paid
nil the costs of the action.
The defendants against whom Indictments
\\cto returned and who arc In custody were
arraigned yesterday and all took time to
plead.
In the superior court yesterday the suit of
E. C. Smith against C. W SmaUwood and
the First National bank of Manchester , la. ,
was commenced. The suit ) Is to decide the
ownership of a note for $52422 given by
BmaTlwood to A. L. Wellman Wellman as
signed the note to Smith , but the bank se
cured possession of It from II. J. Wellman ,
n brother of A. L. AVellman's , who depos
ited It with the bank ns security. Sniall-
need Is willing to pay the note and has
deposited the amount In court and the suit
Is to determine who Is entitled to the money.

Indications now point to nn almost cer
tainty that within the near future another
railroad will bo running In here. Less than
two weeks ago L. P. Jtidson of this city
conveyed to William Balrd 374 acres of
land situated north of the city along the
river. The consideration named In the deed
filed for record here Is $14,272.60. This set
the people guessing and nt the time It was
thought that the land had been purchased by
Batrd for some railroad. Yesterday William
Balrd filed n deed for record In the county
recorder's ofllco here which conveys the 374
acres he purchased from Judson to the Fort
Dodge & Omaha Railway company , the con
sideration named being $14,973.60.
The Fort Dodge & Omaha Railroad com
pany but a couple of days ago filed articles
of Incorporation with the secretary of state
nt Des Molncs. The articles of Incorporation
place- the capital stock at $5,000.000 nnd
state that the Intention of the company Is
to build a railroad from Fort Dodge. la. ,
to Omaha , vl.i Council Bluffs. John F. Dun-
combe Is named as president of the com
pany and the fact that for years he has
been the solicitor in Iowa for the Illinois
Central lends coloring to the supposition
that the new road will bo a branch of the
Illinois Central. Julius L. Rinne nnd Otto
F. Nau are named ns secretary and treas
urer , respectively , of the new road. Dubuque -
buquo Is the principal place of business of
the new company and this lends encourage
ment to the Idea that the Fort Dodge &
Omaha road will he but a connecting link
for the Illinois Central. The articles of
Incorporation state that the road will be
built from a point on the Dubuque & Sioux
City railway , somewhere In the neighbor
hood of Fort Dodge. The opinion among
railroad people In this city Is that the Fort
Dodge road will enter Omaha over the
Terminal company's bridge.
Other 1'urclinnco.
In addition to the Judson trnct which Is
now definitely known to have been pur
chased for the Fort Dodge and Omaha road ,
It would appear that other purchases of
large pieces of property within the city lim
its were made for the same company. The
Rohrer property , comprising half a block
duo west of the Northwestern depot nnd
facing on Broadway , Is believed to have
been purchased for this company for a depot
site. It would glvo the road close connec
tion with the Terminal company's tracts on
Union avenue , also with those of the Union
Pacific and would mean direct connection
with nil the lines running Into the trans
fer depot.
Another purchase of city property made
was cloven plaitted blocks on Noith Thir
teenth street , extending from Broadway
and about n mile of unplatted land extend
ing to the city limits. This Is believed to
have been purchased for the same road , as
the same party who engineered the other
deals effected this sale. The purchase of
these properties Is hollered to Indicate ihdt
the now road will establish shops at this
point. John L. McCaguo of Omaha is be
lieved to be the party who Is back of these
purchases for the Fort Dodge and Omaha
road , as ho has been in this city a great
deal of late. None of the purchases , how
ever , he been made In his name , moat of
them being made to William nnd E. G. Balrd
of Omaha.

Major F. E. Jones of the Fifty-first Iowa
regiment writes his parents from San
Francisco that every precaution Is taken to
Insure the men nt the camp at Presidio the
best food obtainable. Ho brands as a
canard the story that the men have been
compelled to eat bad meat. The letter
says :
The papers had a story about our being
very dissatisfied and ha\lng to eat spoiled
beef and wormy bacon , but if you see such
stuff published you may set It down for a
mado-up btory. "Wo have hnd some bacon
that was not very good , and It was con
demned before \\o \ had time to cut It. An
other time wo got some beef that had not
been bled or something else was the matter
with It , anyway , the commissary olllcers
seat us word not to use It , and some fresh
meat was hent up at once. In e\ery respect
the rations are good , and wo have plenty
to eat.
I say this because I know that some of
the boys have been writing some stories that
would load one to belle\o that wo were be
ing half staned and th.U what we did eat
was unclean. The most of thesa stories were
started by fellows who presumably want the
women and girls to bring them lunches of
cake and pie , so when they get a chance
they rnako their stories as bad as they can.
I have been to several dinners and lunches ,
but I never asked for them nor made any
suggestions that would make ono believe I
was In need of anything to eat.

Many of our wants are satisfied with substitutes | s
but there is no substitute for Ik
When a man wants Battle Ax there is a reason
for it and when he is offered anything "just
as good" there is a reason for his insisting on
Battle Ax.
This reason is that Battle Ax is better than any
other chewing tobacco that money will buy.
