In SellliiK I'rIec-Otlier Mnt-
fern In Federal Court.
In the federal court yesterday afternoon
the Jury In the suit of J. L. Fuller against
Sue A. Hoyt , which had been on trial since
Tuesday of last week , brought In a verdict
for the plaintiff , fixing his damages at
13,147.73. The plaintiff sued for $1,600.
The suit arose from a writ of attachment
sued out by Mrs. Hoyt In 1894 against 20,000
bushels of corn belonging to the plaintlft
to secure an alleged claim of ? 500. The at
tachment was later released nnd Fuller
brought suit for $1,600 damages , claiming
he had lost that amount on the sale of the
corn on account of It being attached. At the
time the corn was attached It was worth In
the market 65 cents and Fuller claimed he
was forced to sell It after the attachment ,
had been released for 45 cents a .bushel.
After the evidence had been submitted tlio
defendant demurred to the petition und the
court upheld It. Then the plaintiff filed an
amended petition setting forth that the seiz
ure of $11,000 worth of corn to secure an
alleged claim of $500 was excessive and
on this showing the Jury brought In a ver
dict for the plaintiff for the sum named
above. The case It Is said will be appealed.
While the Jury In the Fullcr-Hoyt case
was out the case of Larry King , the South
Omaha man arrested last May with a "flash
roll" In his possession , was taken up. King
Intends to make a strong fight for his lib
erty and has secured the services of John
Y. Stone and Emmet Tlnley to defend him.
Ills attorneys filed a demurrer to the Indict
ment on the grounds that the facts stated
did not constitute an offense under the laws
of the United States , Inasmuch that the
Tennessee wai rants found on King having
been cancelled were not In "similitude" of
obligations of the United States. The de
murrer was argued at length and overruled
by Judge Woolson. On motion of King's
counsel the trial was continued- until the
next term as they stated It would require
that time to secure certain Important and
necessary evidence on behalf of their client.
The trial of the case against diaries Har-
berts , charged with breaking Into the letter
box of David Bradley & Co. at the post-
office was also continued until next term.
Hnrborts' presented affidavits to the court
in which ho set out that If a continuance
was granted ho would be able to show that
ho secured the checks which ho attempted
to get cashed from Tony Vade , the man
who was arrested on suspicion of being Im
plicated In the robbery , but later released
as the federal authorities did not consider
the evidence sufficient to warrant holding
him. The charge against Vade , It Is un
derstood , wan not brought to the attention
of the federal grand Jury.
The cases against John Colcman and
Charles Clark on the charges of bootlegging
were continued by agreement until next
term. Carl Allen of Hamburg , Indicted for
bootlegging , withdrew his plea of not guilty
and entered one admitting his guilt. Sentence
tenceIn his case was postponed.
Now that both the King nnd Harberts
cases have been continued It Is expected
that Judge Woolson will adjourn the term
today or tomorrow.
Part 2 of The Bee's photogravures of the

runernl Service * .
The body of Prof. George L. Wyckoff. who
was found dead In his bed at the Midland
hotel In Omaha Monday evening , was
brought to this city yesterday and taken to
Estep's undertaking rooms , where It will
be prepared for burial. At first there was
some talk of holding a post mortem exam
ination , but as all the physicians agreed
that death resulted from natural causes It
was decided not to fcold one. The funeral
will proba'-ly ' be held tomorrow , although
no definite arrangements will bo made un
til the arrival of Miss Edith Wyckoff from
Illinois , who Is expected to arrive today.
Prof. Wyckoff had been connected with
the Iowa State School for the Deaf here for
the last sixteen years , first as teacher , then
as superintendent , and for the last ten years
had held the position of principal. Prior to
coming to Council Bluffs he was principal
of a school for the deaf in Olathe , Kan. ,
for three years and was recognized as one
of the best educators fn this line In the
west. Ho was a comparatively young man ,
being but 48 years of age , although he ap
peared to bo older.
Since resigning his position with the
school for the deaf ho had accepted an ap
pointment with a Kansas lumber company
and had almost completed arrangements to
move his family there next week. His death
coming so suddenly and unexpectedly was
a great shock to his many friends In this
city and much sympathy Is expressed for
his bereaved family. Deceased was a mem
ber of the local lodge of Royal Arcanum.

Babcock nnd Secretary Krapfel arc accom
panied by their wives , as are several of the
members who arrived last evening.
The First Iowa cavalry was organized at

being formed from the towns along the Mis
sissippi from McGregor to Keokuk. It ) was
mustered out In March , 1866 , at Davenport ,
after having been In service for nearly
I four and a half years , during which time U
ormed part of the western army. Most of
ts service was In bushwhacking fighting ,
ommenclng In Missouri nnd working south
hrough Arkansas , Texas and Tennessee.
The principal fight that the regiment was
itigagcd in was Prairie Grove , Ark. Gcn-
ral Fltz Henry Warren of Burlington waS

H. A. Cole of the hardware firm of Cole
t Cole received a letter yesterday morn-

ing him an account of a check swindle
worked In that city a few days previous by
a man answering the description" of Vhe In
dividual who succeeded In passing a worth
less check on Cole & Cole Monday after
noon. From the letter It appeared that the
same fellow succeeded In working a num
ber of Sioux City merchants for considerable
amounts , but unfortunately the , warning
sent Mr. Cole arrived just one day too late.
Investigations made by the police developed
the fact that the man also tried to pass a
similar check nt P. C. Devol's hardware
store Monday afternoon , but Mr. Devol's
son , who was In the store at the time , was
suspicious of the check and refused to cash
It. Here , as at Swalno's nnd Colo's , the fel
low purchased a stove. As no trace of the
man could bo got after he left Keller's fur
niture store the police believe he became
scared at being turned down at thrco dif
ferent places and boarded a car for Omaha

AUVICK TO IOWA
Wapcllo Comity Alliance Hvplnlntt
Why Urn I n Mioulil lie Held.
OTTUMWA , la. , Sept. 27. ( Special. ) The
Farmers' Alliance of this county nt a re
cent meeting decided to Issue the following
advice to Iowa agriculturists as to the ad
visability of holding their grain for higher
prices ; "Within a short time a steady ad
vance up to the 75-cent mark at northwest
ern shipping points Is certain as death ; and
the farmers have the game In their own
hands If they play with a little caution.
"Tho reason upon which wp base our faith
In the better price for wheat Is that when
tlio crop of 1898 was harvested the world's
supply from former years was practically
exhausted and the bread eating world is now
drawing Its supplies from the crop of the
present year. In other years , and for many
years , the old stocks amounted to hundreds
. of millions of bushels when the crop of any
given year was harvested ; and In reckoning
on the world's supply the gamblers counted
the old wheat as well as the new. This
year there is no old wheat on which thry can
reckon. The low price of wheat during ten
years preceding 1S)7 ! ) was due not to a sur
plus In any given year , but to the accumu
lations of preceding years. That chief cause
has now temporarily disappeared.
"Again , the acute distress which for three
or four years afflicted many farmers In the
, northwest Is no longer In sight. Farmers
. generally are In better shape to protect
. themselves ngnlnst the vulgar wiles of bulls
S and bears ; and those animals are perfectly
aware of the situation. "
