HI Death.
The inquest over James Lankton, who
died from injuries received In a street fight
last Saturday night with John Shefler,
was begun yesterday morning at Cutler's
undertaking rooms. The coroner's jury
consists of C. C. Clifton, Peter Smith and
Theodore Oulttar. After several witnesses
had been examined a continuance was
taken until this morning at 10 o'clock In
order to secure the attendance of addi
tional witnesses.
The witnesses examined yesterday were
Dr. M. A. Tlnley, Patrolman Arnold, De
tective Callaghan, Walter Delahoyd, Lank
ton's companion the night of the fight;
E. A. Wlckham, Wallace Benjamin, Charles
Barnett and A. D. Van Horn, road officers
of the street railway company.
There was little new brought out yester
day but what has already been published,
except that several witnesses testified that
Shefler struck Lankton twice Instead of
once, as first stated. The evidence showed
that Lankton and his companion had vis
ited the Manhattan, and after leaving there
had gone to the Hoffman, where they were
refused admittance. On leaving the Hoff
man they encountered Shefler and Lankton
accused him of following them. This, led
to the auarrel and the fight. Some of the
witnesses testified that Lankton and Dela
hoyd both struck at Shefler first, while
others were not able to state who struck
the first blow. Some of the witnesses have
It as their opinion that both Lankton and
his companion had been drinking, but Dela
hoyd denied that they were drunk, al-
j thought they had taken some drinks.
The uoay or Lintion was laaen uy mem
bers of the family to Sidney, la., yester
day afternoon. The funeral will be held
there tomorrow.
County Attorney Hceb appeared for the
state, while John Shefler was represented
by Attorney Enin.et Tlnley. It Is expected
that Shefler v: ".1 le tho flrst witness called
when the inquest Is resumed this morning.
Arranging; for Macrae Funernl.
While arrangements for the funeral of
Dr. Donald Macrae, sr., have not been
completed, It probably will be held Sun
day afternoon, but whether from the fam
ily residence on Fifth avenue or the First
Presbyterian church, of which Dr.
Macrae Was a member, has not been
definitely decided. Bluff City Masonlo
lodge, of which Dr. Macrae was a mem
ber, will have charge of the funeral, al
though the services will be conducted
by Rev. Marcus P. McClure, pastor of
the First Presbyterian church.
In addition to his only son. Mayor
Macrae, Dr. Macrae Is survived by three
brothers, James R. Macrae of this city.
Rev. John 8. Macrae of Melbourne, Aus
tralia, and F. A. Macrae of London, Eng
land! and one alster, Mrs. Mary Stewart
of Melbourne, Australia.
On every side yesterday were heard
regrets at the death of one who had for
so many years been a leading physician
of the city and the friend of many. No
where is the loss more felt than at the
Edmundson hospital. To the nurses he
was a father, and his kindly face and
cheering voice will be greatly misled
by all connected with - the Institution.
From the organising of the Woman's
Christian association and the erection of
Its first hospital Dr. Macrae had always
taken a cjreat Interest in the work of the
association and had always been one of
the medical staff of the hospital.
The Council Bluffs Medical society met
last night to take suitable action on the
death of its valued' member. Drs. Dean,
Cole and Waterman were appointed a
committee on floral tribute and Drs.
Jennings, Barstow and Houghton a com
mittee on resolutions.

Fred W. Sargent, city attorney, atands a
good chance of having to cross-examine
himself In a damage suit which John King
threatens to bring against the city as a re
sult of his wagon having fallen into a
hole In front of the city attorney's resi
dence at Bmlthsvllle. Mr. Sargent cam
upon the scene just after the accident and
King told him to take good notice of the
hole and the general situation In order
that he might testify in court. Sargent
never cracked a smile or passed a word,
although he knew he would have to de
fend the city In any such action. Now
King has filed a claim for damages, and
he says he will take the matter Into the
district court provided the council refuses
to allow the claim.

FOLK HIRES SPECIAL TRAIN
Misses Connection nnd la Bound
to Keep His Chautauqua
Date.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DE3 DOINE3, Ia., Aug. 16.-(Speclal.)-It
cost Governor Folk of Missouri $160 to
keep a Chautauqua engagement In Fort
Dodge yesterday. Des Moines was full of
governors and distinguished men yesterday.
In addition to Governor Folk, there was
Governor Hoch of Kansas, Senator Till
man of South Carolina, and Congressman
J. Adam Bede of Minnesota. Governor
Folk reached the city In the morning, too
late to catch his train on the Minneapolis
& St. Louis for Fort Dodge. So he engaged
a special train and It cost him $150 to do
it, but ha kept the date.
Oovernor Hoch of Kansas was In the
city with the rest, on his way to a Chau
tauqua date. He spent the afternoon at
the state house and then took dinner at
p. m. with Governor Cummins. The
others were In the city but a short time.
The state executive council la partly out
of the woods on the question of permitting
corporations to Issue stock for other than
cash. The last legislature enacted a law
directing that if a corporation accepts
other than cash for Its stock, the transac
tion must have the approval of the execu
tive council. The council for a time
thought it was swamped and would have
no means of ascertaining a proper valua
tion of things. It was readily seen that
real estate could be appraised, 'but a pat
ent right was another thing. Finally the
council has decided that the appraisement
of Impartial judges must be obtained In
any property transfer. . In a case of good
will or patent right every case will have
to be decided on Its own merits, without

Sewsgt Question Settled.
GRINNKLL, Ia.. Aug. 16. (Special.) The
question of the disposal of the sewage of
the city, which has been a very serious
problem for some years. Is now believed to
be satisfactorily settled by the completion
of a concrete septio tank with solid con
crete top, making the structure almost air
tight. A similar tank was built soma
years ago at a cost of $8,000, but with a
wooden covering did not prove satisfactory.
About $6,000 more has now been spent and
the present tank Is warranted by the
builders to make the outflowing fluid per
fectly harmless and without odor. Pre
vious to the construction of the first tank
the city had a damage suit for loss of
cattle by pollution of the water of the
creek Into which the sewer emptied, for
which It stands to pay about $5,000.
Crop Outlook; rfr Urlnnell.
GRINNELL, Ia., Aug. 16. (Special.) The
corn crop In the region south and east of
this city suffered greatly by the recent
storm of rain and hall. Where there was
no damage by hall the violent winds
twisted the corn out by the root In many
places and broke the roots and flattened it in
others so as to materially diminish the
yield. Oats are generally very light from
the thresher and yield but thirty to forty
bushels to the acre by machine measure.
Hay gives a good yield, but has been much
injured by successive heavy rains. Pota.
toes and garden crops are fin.

and has just settled one strike at the fac

ers, but refusing to re-employ them. It is

snipping beans, they attempted to reduce
the price to H of a cent, when fifteen of
the men employed struck against the de
crease. They could not fill their places at
the reduced wagea and had to pay the 1
cent per pound, but refused to take back
the men who had struck, getting new
people in their places. There is still a short
