It being ttie third stop In his cross-Ohio
Journey, he having already addressed

pointV'where aft could see him. Then stand
ing on the stone foundation of the fence
and cllnglntr to Its pickets, he tried to say
a few words.
"I want to assure you," he began, "that
as long as I fcaiyf3w-,do so. I am
going to fight for a clean government I
am going trfiVflght for 41eart manhood. I
am going to fighter fihwui,yolltlcs."
The high wind prevented' ' half of the
crowd from hearing wh V cqlonel said,
so he turned his back orf"those he had Just
addressed and repeated his words. Then,
again escorted by' Ctilct kohler, , he el
bowed his w, toj th veaUvde of his car.

The crowd found the conversation en
joyable. "What do you think of Kohler,' a tall
man asked.
The colonel turned and smote the chief
on the shoulder. "He's an old friend "of
mine," he rejoined.
After posing for photographers, the col

JUNCTION CITY, Kan., Aug. 25.
(Special Telegram). The big battle of the
maneuvers took place at Fort Riley this
morning. More than 6,000 men participated,
Including both Nebraska regiments.
The Nebraska regiments were in the
thick of the fight every minute of the fray,
the First regiment under the command of
Colonel Eberly and the Second under the
command of Colonel Mack. ' The militia
men as well as the regulars acquitted them
selves very creditably In the battle and the
mpl res praised the work of the Nebraska
men. The troops here were divided into
armies, the Blues, against the Reds. The
Blues were, supposed to be operating from
base at Marlon and were attempting to
convoy a train of supplies consisting or w
wagons, to a point near Stockdale. The
Reds attacked nd. made an effort to cap
ture or destroy the entire train of ammu
nition. The second . Nebraska, under Colo
nel Mack, consisting of the First regiment
battalion, was also included In this division.
The convoy -escort" proper was under com
mand of Colonel . Eberly, of the First
Nebraska. ' One battalion of .the First
Nebraska was a part of the rear guard.
The battle " started about ten o'clock fol
lowing the movement of the .troops, which
started shortly, after, sunrise .this morning.
It wa ever I 'slightly less than an hour,
the wagons having gotten through in
exelent shape. - .Contrary to .piaris known
ud to yesterday. Nebraakans were not pit
ted against, Kansans but the iiillltlamen of
the iwee states combined as a force to
defend their train against the , attacks of
the enemy, which was entirely . composed
of regulars'. ,. . . .
Fremont Man Injured.
Field artillery, cavalry and, infantry took
part. Wireless signal corps were in the
field during the batUe and kept-the rear
of the column In constant touch with the
advance of the convoy force. But two or
three men were taken to the hospital today.
Prvate Robinson, of the signal corps of
Fremont, was severely Injured by the fall
of his horse, while he was engaged In the
field. At last . reports his condition was
critical. Internal injuries proving to be
more serious than at first thought.
Although the morning was very hot, very
few men had to give up on that account.
Considerable excitement was experienced in
the camp on account of the apparent de
sertion of George Porter, of Company H,
Second regiment of Aurora. The Hamilton
county man left last sight without notify
ing any of his superior officers or any of
his friends in the ranks. After an investi
gation today it was found Porter 'had bor
rowed a large sum of money from the mem.
bers of the Aurora company previous to
his. departure. It appears that the young
man 'has no relatives at Aurora. Captain
JoHnson of the Aurora company said that
the Topeka police had late this atternoon
notified him that a man answering the
description of Porter had just left that city
for Kansas City. Hs further stated that
no mercy' would ba shown the deserter If
captured. , .

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
rS MOINES. Aug. ffi.-iSpeclal Tele
gram.) '1 he Iowa supreme court came In
for a sharp criticism today fiom Judge
Smith McTherson of the L'nlted State dis-
rk t court. In rendering a decision lnvolv-
ng the Iowa liquor laws. He held that
the Iowa court has been going wrong for
twenty-five years in proceeding upon the
heory that liquor sales in Iowa under the
mulct law are legal. . He entertains the be
lief . thiit no (tales are legal, though Im
munity from prosecution may be obtained.
But he also held that the federal couit
ught to follow the state courts In the mat
ter of lntepretlng state laws, and he there
fore refused to reverse the Iowa supreme
court on the liquor laws. The case was one
brought on behalf of saloon men of Carroll,
Boone and Marshnlltown, asking the fed
eral courts to restrain Iowa county and
tate officials from enforcing the mulct
law, on the theory that it is wholly uncon-
tltutlonal. He dismissed the temporary re
training order and held with the state of
ficials, leaving them free to proceed with
the enforcement of the law.
Backing; for Altar Plant.
The members of the Greater Des Moines
commission decided nt a meeting of the
body today to reorganise tho bankrupt

Mr. WaJlace is on the program the same
day with Colonel Roosevelt and there are
two others of the Roosevelt country life
commission who have conspicuous parts
to play in the program at St. Paul. There
IS ; nothing especially to be done by the
commission, but as so many of the mem
bers are to be there at the same time as
Colonel Roosevelt they will have a meeting.

committee wlU not make use of any of, 'the
regular campaign material which has been
prepared ready for distribution by the re
publican national congressional committee
but will reJy on literature prepared especially
to suit the occasion here. There Is fear
that some of the literature wll be made
use of by the democrats to the detriment
of the replibican state ticket.

list of delegates to' the national mining
congress at Toa Angeles, Including- John

Refuses to Make Connections.
The. Chicago . Great Western railroad re
fused to. put in connections with the North
western at pumoht. The claim is made
that the sole purpose of the connection is
to enable the beet sugar factory at Waverly
to secure a lower rate on sugar beets for
a very short -period of the year, and the
Great Western protests against being com
pelled to do so at their expense.
Enforcement of Pnlnt Laws.
The State Pure Food and Dairy depart
ment, .which has charge of the enforcement
of the-1aws in -regard - to labels on paint

ing at 'the state fair as to the extent to
which the makers of paint have complied
with the law and especially their manner
of ohanglng the labels so that the consum
ers In Iowa may know exactly what they
are getting. It Is claimed that this law
Is being" obeyed better 'than any of the
similar laws.
Enarle Divorce Case Appealed.
NEWTON, la., Aug. . (Speclal.)-The
Engle divorce case, perhaps the most sen
sational central Iowa has ever known, was
today appealed to the supreme court. Be
cause of the prominence of Dr. and Mrs.

lower court a short time ago, attracted
wide publicity. Dr. Engle was formerly
state senator from this county. Ills wife,
Mrs. Mary Engle, was a rich widow be
fore Dr.' Engle married her. She brought
suit for alleged unfaithfulness. . Dr.. Engle

both petitions and now Mrs. Engle has ap
pealed. Anto Accident at Mason City.

Texas steer on the market Wednesday,
which sold by Itself for S7.00 per hundred.
the highest price ever paid at the South-
Omaha market for a grass fed animal., This
steer weighed 1,420 pounds and was a clean,
deep chested animal built upon a plan to
catch the packer's eyes. Mr. Gould bought
the steer from the Reverse 4 Cattle com
pany and it was raised on a ranch In
Routt county, Colo. H waa almost pure
Texas breed, -which Is a rare animal at
South Omaha these days. His horns had
been taken off so he had not the fierce
aspect of th old Texas ranger. Armour &
company purchased th steer along with a
bunch of cows.
Yesterday's market at th South Omaha
yards was even better In point of prices
and the fine demand for stock than any of
the good days of the last week. The cattle

prices for all grades. One load of fine
white faced feeders, twentv-ninn head
sold at the high figure for a full load of
feeders, bringing $5.80 per hundred. They
averaged 1,256 pounds each. Six months
feeding will make this bunch weigh fully
1,600 each and they should top the market
easily.
The receipts of sheep were nearly ud to
20,000 head, making the third big day of this
week.
