Before Judge Thornell In district, court
yesterday application by the plaintiff for
the reinstatement of the suit of Isaac Kl

Some year ago Klneer brought suit to re
cover $1,600, which he claimed I'atton owed
him for alleged service performed. When
the case came up for trial Klneer failed to
how up and Button, having offered $150 In
settlement. : Klj)l flj' altorneya accepted
the offer and tli Muse wu dismissed.
When Kiheer" urmd tliHt the case had
been settled and dismissed ho made no
comment, but uliurtly after accured an
other ultoincy and filed an application to
have the.KUlt reinstated. For the plaintiff
it waa contended that lie was not alto
gether of sound mind at tin; time the cu.
was disuilaKCd on account of Ills failure
lo appear In court. Klneer. who la an old
man with long grey hair which he ties In
a knol on the top of Ills head, told a

ceeded to give an elaborate description of
the "insect." a be termed It.
Klneer worked' around the Pulton farm
north of the city for several years, but
now lives alone in a log cabin mar the
Buyer river. ,
Judge Thornell took the mutter under ad

Five members of the household of William
Higgins, Fourteenth street and Fourteenth
avenue, ware taken seriously sick after
partaking of breakfust yesterday morn
ing. Those afflicted showed indications of
having been poisoned by something they
had eaten and the oatmeal was suspected
of being the cause.
The persons affected were Mr. and Mrs.

father and little girl a Iho : became sick,
and City Physlclun Rice was hastily sum

Fire of unknown orlftln bryko out at l:3o
o'clock yesterday afternoon in the whole

Kiddle company, 5.'0 South Main street, and
did considerable damage before it was got
under control.
The fire is said to have started in the
rear of the building, n large om-story brick
structure with flat roof. When the fire
department reached the scene the density
of the smoke trom the burning baled hay
made It extremely difficult for the fire
nit u Uf locate the portion burning. The
rear portion of the roof soon collapsed and
this provided a vent for tit.- volume of
smoke and nave t lie firemen a better op.
portunity to fight the flames-. Shortly after
the roof fell in the fire nen hud the bltze
under control, hut water had to be poured
on the baled liy for several hours. '
At an early stage of the fir- it looked
us If the flames would spread lo the plant
of the Evans laundry adjoining on the
south and some of the rear windows were
broken by the heal. The firemen by hard
work, hnweer. succeeded in confining the
blaze to the warehouse.
The damage lo the building- is suid to be
covered by the Sl.feai Insurance on it. The
Lroge-Klddlc company had seven car of
baled hay, a car of flour and a quantity
of grain and other feed stored in the build
ing, on which it carried $l.u Insurance ,
which will probably, it is said, cover the
lias.

The, development of Trial by 'Plumes: lud., ;w Black; Bull Hi
tFrom a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES, Jan. 31. (Special.) I nan
opinion given at the request of Governor
Cummins, Attorney General H. W. Byers
today gave an Interpretation and explana
tion of the meaning of the provisions of
the primary law In which he exhaustively
discusses every section of the law over
which there has been any controversy or
discussion and closes bis opinion by the
statement that any person who will sit
down lor an hour each evening for an
evening or two he will have no difficulty
in understanding the law.
In his interpretation of section 32, the rvr
tlon relating to a candidate spending
money, Mr. Byers holds t:iut the ch;ur In
tent of the law is to prevent votes un.l
political Influence being a commodity en
the market. He holds that n candidal.-)
cannot buy extra copies of a newspape:
containing flattering mention or him c:
reasons for supporting him as a candidat
and then circulate such -rir-, copies tor Un
reason that the purchase of the extra copies
could be Interpreted ns havim; Influenced
the newspaper to print tin- notice. But. if
a newspaper of its own free will prints such
a notice the candidate can have it reprinted
at some Job printing establishment and mull
this to the voter.
He holds that a candidate can engaso a
stenographer lo write his letters and en
gage clerks to mail ids letters and copies
of his speeches and other legitimate mat
ter; can pay transportation about the suite,
engage hulls in which to speak, hire livery
men to transport him across the country,
but aiinvt hire others to speak for him ot
to use. their political Influence for him or
to solicit votes for him.
As to the det-iil provisions f the law
he holds that when used in the first
city primary and when used in tl,e fiist
state primary no registration In neces
sary; that the declaration of party affilia
tion at the city primary I-Vbruiiry J4
does not bind the voter at the June statu
primary; cundidutea for Board of Super
visors in counties divided into districts
do not have to file nomination papers;

bound to nominate one of those on the
primary ballot, but may go oiitside of
that list; the state conventions have i.u
Tower to select tile chairman of tho stale
central committee; a party cannot leave
to the central committee the nomination
of officers by agreeing to have no candi
dates before the primary, blnce tins U the

where used In cities pasters can be used
for ward aldermen, precinct committee
men and delegates i ;-ity conventions
and where pusters are u. cd or uuines
written in a cross inuvt al-o be placed
before the name; where the name of a
I candidate on one party nallot Is written
'.In or tasted on another party hi, hot It
counts only as though there weru two
1 candidates. The lialuo of a republican
i written In tin a democratic ballot cannot
count for the candidate as a republican,
but only as one vote for that candidate aa
a democrat.
As, to chapter lxxlil of the laws relat
ing to corporations contributing money to
political campaigns, Mr. Byers holds that
no corporation can contribute money or
any other consideration or advantage and
Unit no employe of a corporation can,
while receiving pay . from a corporation,
go out and do political work under direc
tion of the corporation, but every person,
whether an employe, of a corporation or
not, can exercise his own right of citizen
ship in political matters by working for
whatever candidate he thinks best, bo
long as lie docs It with regard to the
pfovlslons of the lw as before noted.

LONDON, Jan. 31. Heated charges of
cowardice In turning a blind eye to the
"reign of terrorism" In Ireland In order
to keep the nationalists in good temper and
assure a continuance of their support in
the commons were launched agaltiBt the
government In the House of Lords today.
Tho marquis of Londonderry,' who was
viceroy of Ireland in 188ti-lK9, led in the
attack and so infectious were his senti
ment that even Lord Langford, wiio has
been a representative peer of Ireland
since ISM, broke his silence of twenty-four
years and devoted his maiden speccli to a
recital of his personal experience with
rattle-driving outside his own gates.
The marquis of Londonderry declared
that the present state of Ireland N worso
than in the dark days of tiie iary
eighties, when murder and outrage were
rampant, and he attributed the c iiultio;;s
entirely to the cowardice of the fcovein
mcnt. The lawbreakers, !.e afsericd, had
the audacity tj declare that th.y had al
their back members of the government and
II Is even reported that tlie constabulary

bovermneut Accused of Cowardice.
The marquis of Londonderry 1 ointed out
that when tlie Right lion. James Brye.
vacated the chief ta rretaryship Mr. Bryc
reported that the condition of Ireland was
i reassuring, but shortly aflcr Mr. Blrrell's
adveiil cattle raiding was Inaugurated and
It had now spread tu ten counties. The
Judges were paralyzed In the sections sub

trial by Jury was a farce, out of 237 prison
ers tried only eight being convicted. Even
the government's own Irish attorney gen
eral bad declared lhat If the present cjn
dltions continued anarchy would r.sult.
The marquis of iAindonderry concluded by
charging the government with cowardice
and with being terrorized hy tlie nation
alisis Into permitting a state of tilings dis
graceful tu any civilized governin-n'.
Iud Beuuchutiip replying In behalf of
the government complained of the exag
gerated pessimism of the unionist pter.
and resented Iord Luusdowne'a compari
son yesterday between Ireland and Mace
donia. He admitted that cattle driving bad
Increased during tlie last year, but suij
that this was the sole sign of agrarian
conditions becoming worse. The govern
ment deplored the cuttle raids, but he
declared the country was no more lawless
than during certain portions of Premier
Balfour's administration and following
Gerald Balfour's precedent when he was
chief secretary for Ireland. In U9i-19 0. the
government had no intention of r-Aivin?
