STATE HAS SOME POINTS To Be Considered In tlie Great West ern Tax Question. The case of the Great Western before the state railroad and warehouse com mission over the rate of tax they shall j pay upon their gross earnings promises jto be quite interesting when it is taken up next month. In a nutshell, as already published in this paper, the road contends that by virtue of certain provisions in its charter it should not be required to comply with the general laws of 1873, which pro vides that after the first ten years of operation a railroad in this state shall have its tax on gross earnings in creased from 2 to 3 per cent. It is understood that the Great West ern will contend that under the char ter of 1854, granted to the Minnesota & Northwestern, and amended two years later, that road was called upon to pay an annual tax of 2 per cent, and should be asked to do only this despite the general law passed by the legislature later. Some question will be raised as to whether the Great Western can avail itself of the provisions of the charter granted to the Minnesota & North western when that line did not build or operate any line from 1856 until the fall of 1885, when the line was com | pleted to Austin. Again the point will Ibe raised as to whether the Great I Western, incorporated in Illinois, can I avail itself of the cArter granted to j the Minnesota & Northwestern, which was a Minnesota institution, duly in corporated in this state. The case is .- ; for Nov. 1. PI RCHASP COMPLETED. Oregon Short I^ine Stock Bousht for Union Pacific.

Common soda is all right in its place and indispensable in the kitchen and for cooking and washing purposes, but it was never intended for a medicine, and people who use it as such will some day regret it. We refer to the common use of soda to relieve heartburn or sour stomach, a habit which thousands of people practice almost daily, and one which is fraught with danger; moreover the only gives temporary relief and in the end the stomach trouble gels worse and worse. The soda acts as a mechanical irri tant to the walls of the stomach and bow-els and cases are on record where it accumulated in the intestines, caus ing- death by inflammation or periton itis. !'•;■. Harlandson recommends as the safest and surest cure for sour stom ach (acid dyspepsia) an excellent pre paration sold by druggists under the name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. These tablets are large twenty-grain lozenges, very pleasant to taste and contain the natural acids, peptones and digestive elements essential to good digestion, and when taken after meals they digest the food perfectly and promptly before it has time to ferment, sour and poison the blood end nervous system. Dr. Wuerth states that he invariably uses Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets in all cases of stomach derangements and finds them a certain cure not only for sour stomach, but by promptly digest ing the food they create a healthy ap petite, increase flesh and strengthen the action of the heart and liver. They are not a cathartic, but intended only for stomach diseases and weakness I and will be found reliable in any stom i ach trouble except cancer of the stom- a ch. All druggists sell Stuart's Dys pepsia Tablets at 50 cents per pack age. A little book describing all forms of stomach weakness and their cure mail ed free by addressing the Stuart Co. [ of Marshall.

Minn., Oct. 7.— The chief work of the M.

Bishop Hurst gave a touching account of his own early struggles and efforts to gain an education and en trance to the ministry. This afternoon Mary C. Nind, of Detroit, Mich., secre tary' of the Woman's Foreign Mission ary society, conducted an interesting meeting on the subject of foreign is sions, which was largely attended. Her account of the work among the women of India and China was espec ial'y well received. Rev. R. W. Craig, of Duluth, afterwards preached the conference missionary sermon, exhort ing the members to use greater dili gence in securing fuAs to prosecute this work and to give it the importance it deserves in their sermons and other wise. This evenr : ; was devoted to a temperance rally ?'";th Rev. Fielder and Rev. Dr. William Vitcheil, of Henne piri avenue M. E. church, as speakers. The latter's address was of great power rind was heard by the largest audience of the conference to this time. The trial committee in the case against Rev. C. E.

Thait Story of tJie Hot Meeting of 1 !i« k Cni»itol Coiimiissitsn. j Special to the Glo>be. WINONA, Minn., Oct. 7.— State Com ; missioner Lamberton, of the capitol j board, does not give encouragement to I the idea that there has bsen a warm j meeting of that organization relative ', to the matter of alleged bribes. The \ story, as spread by the Twin City pa i pers, has caused considerable talk in YVinona. Commissioner H. W. Lam j berton was today seen in regard to ! the story of the stormy meeting and ! asked relative to its truth. "There is not a shadow of truth in I the story about such a stormy meet j ing." said Mr. Lamberton, energetic ally. "There was never any discus ! sion or intimation in any board meet- I ing at any time that a member had | been approached. I have attended : every meeting of the board with the exception of one in July -and one in | August, while I was away. If any ■ such thing occurred thenr I am sure I i would have heard of it and been ad | vised of the matter. No one ever re ' signed office in the board, and there i was not hot talk of any official doing '• so." "Then do you believe the contract ! will remain as it is for the capitol ?" j "Certainly; the contract has been let, and th&t is an end of it. I fully be i lieve if will be so carried out.

D., Oct. 7.— Much to the dis i appointment of these particularly interested, the scheme to issue $20,000 in state bonds in connection with the Soldiers' home at L's'bon, Nl D., for the purpose of taking up the old outstanding certificates of indebtedness issued several years ago for purchasing the site and errecting the building, now amounting to about ?12,C00, and bu.lding a hospital, the plans for which were prepared by Hancock Bros., of Fargo, and approved by the board, has fallen through in consequence of it having been discovered that such proceedings would be illegal, because the debt limit of the state would thereby be exceeded. Al though it was recently decided to postpone the erection of the hosptal building until next summer, yet it was intended to seil the bonds, and thus have the proceeds in bank for future use. While this might not have benefited the taxpayers, somebody might have bsen in luck's way. BiR- Lumber Cut Promised. DULUTH, Minn., Oct. 7.— The lumber cut of the Duluth district this season will be double that of last winter. Prosperity has re turned in full force and effect to the lumber men of this section.

Labor has not been so scarce in Duluth and vicinity In years as at present. It was anticipated that after har vest there would be plenty of men to fill all demands, but thus far there has been little relief. The averages wages for woodsmen the coming winter will be $20 per month and board, as. compared with $I' 3 last winter. Hunter Drowned. Special to the Globe. ST.

BAD DAY FOR THE DEFENSE. EVIDENCE OF TWO OF ITS MOST IMPORTANT WITNESSES WAS IMPEACHED. TESTIMONY ABOLT ALL. SUBMITTED It Is Expected That Mont of Next Week Will Be Devoted to Or atorical Efforts. CHICAGO, Oct. 7.— One more day of evidence and then the finish of the Luetgert murder trial will be in sierh'. The state announced today that it had but ? few more witnesses, and that it would get through with them without much delay tomorrow. An adjournment will then be taken until Monday, when the defense will offer a small amount of sur-rebuttal, and then the way wiil be clear for the arguments of the at torneys, which will take about one week. It was a bad day for the defense. The evidence of two of their chief witnesses was almost destroyed. Mary Siemmer ing and William Charles, Leutgert's business partner, were the sufferers. Witness after witness came upon the stand and swore that when Mary Siem mering denied that she had admitted improper relations with Luetgert, she had not told the truth. Most of these witnesses were members of the grand jury which had indicted Luetgert and their evidence was crushing. They all told the same story and the most des perate efforts of the defense could not shake one of them. Prominent business men who had dealings with Charles, and bankers with whom he had done business.swore that he could not be believed under oath, and told of shady business trans actions of which he had been guilty As in the case of Mary Siemmering. the defense made frantic efforts to savf. the character of their witnesses, but were not able to accomplish anything. The evidence given by each of the impeaching witnesses called was -i' ->'■-■, and to the point. Mary Siemmering' * evidence was torn to tatters. Members of the grand jury, which indicted Luel gert last May, appeared on the witness stand and testified to admissions the young woman had made before tha*. body as to her relations with Luetgert, until Judge Tuthill tired of it. Finally his honor said: "I will hear no .more grand jurors. Their evidence is but a repetition. It seems to me the point upon which they are being questioned has been thor oughly covered." Assistant State's Attorney McEwen was satisfied. By the evidence of half a dozen former grand jurors, he nad impeached the testimony of the young woman who asserted with almost hys terical emphasis upon the stand that she had never said to the assistant state's attorney or to the members of the grand jury that her conduct with Luetgert was anything but decorous and proper. GRAND JURORS SWORN. John Bickett, of Evanston; Robert J. Sloan, Frank C. Webber, Charles W. Smith and Edward Prior, all mem bers of the grand jury, which returned the "true bill" against Luetgert, were called to the witness stand and told of the admissions made by Mary Siera mering. According to the story of each of the former grand jurors, the young woman confessed that improper rela tions had existed between herself and Luetgert. In vain did ex- Judge Vin cent and Attorney Phalen attempt to break down this crushing impeachment of one of their strongest witnesses by suggestions of intimidation. Ex-Judge Vincent inquired, with fire in his tones, if Inspector Schaack or Police Captain Schuettler were in the grand jury room while Mary Siemmering was un dergoing th 2 inquisitorial cross-exam ination. Only one of the former grand jurors remembered of having seen either of the police officials during the examination. John Bickett said" he saw Oapt. Schuettler in the room, but that tie captain said nothing, and was not close to Miss Siemmering while she was on the witness stand. Police Matron McMahon, of the East Chicago avenue station, was placed upon the stand to deny Mary Siemmer ing's story that she had been submit ted to humiliating treatment when she was placed under arrest and brought to the station. Matron McMahon de clared it was untrue that the young woman was despoiled of all her cloth ing in her cell, as she had stated, and that a policeman had stood guard at her cell door, while she was without raiment. "I searched her in the same manner that I search all women brought to the station," said Matron McMahon. Attorney Phalen, on cross-examina tion, suggested that a practical illus tration of this method be given for the benefit ot the court and jury. State's Attorney Deneen objected somewhat indignantly, saying that the suggestion was ridiculous. Judge Tuthill disre garded the whole matter. SCOWLED AT MRS. FELDT. Mrs. Christine Feldt was in court to day to contradict the evidence of Mrs. Mary Charles relative to the rings worn by Mrs. Luetgert. Mrs. Charles em phatically denied on the witness stand Tuesday that she had ever asked Mrs. Feldt to say, if questioned, that the rings found in the vat at the Luetgert sausage factory were not the rings which had belonged to Mrs. Luetgert. Today Mrs. Feldt, with equal emphasis, declared Mrs. Charles did request her to deny that she ever saw the rings before. Mrs. Feldt refused to do so. Shi said today the rings were those worn by Mrs. Luetgert. She was positive about it. Luetgert's heavy features, which had been contorted by his habitual frown augmented by physical pain caused by an atmospherical change, relaxed some what as he caught sight of Mrs. Chris tine Feldt. The big sausage maker smiled, then an expression of scorn shone in his eyes. Mrs. Feldt is the woman who loaned Luetgert money, end who on the witness stand remark ed that she was very sorry for hav ing done so. Luetgert wrote her many letters of a tender and supplicating character soon after his arrest last May, and Mrs. Feldt handed these mis sives to the prosecution. To Luetgert's consternation, the letters confronted him in court and he was compelled to listen to the expressions of endear ment he had addressed to the widow. There was a story in circulation at one time that Luetgert intended to marry Mrs. Feldt, and that was the reason he desired to be rid of his wife. Police Officer. Charles Griebenow was called to the witness stand to testify to cer tain dates of material events in the case, in contradiction of witnesses for the defense. William Fulbeck. Luetgert's former hostler, gave an interesting bit of evi dence with reference to Mary Seim mering. In fact, the testimony of E^ul beck was the opening wedge for a vio lent attack upon Luetgert's pretty serv ant girl, for the love of whom, the pros ecution asserts, the sausage maker kill ed his wife. Fulbeck said that he miss ed Mrs. Luetgert on May 1, but said nothing until May 3. "Then I asked Mary Siemmering FROM THE CAMP A Secret Handed Down by the In dians to Civilization that is the Cause of Thanksgiving to Many. Their Knowledge of Health Thousands To-day Who Have Availed Themselves of Their Medicines Praise the Instinct by Which They Learned Nature's Secrets. Did you ever get up in the morning with a bad taste in the mouth, a furred tongue, dull pains in the head, sickness at the 6tomacli, ac companied during the day by pains under the right shoulder blade, a difficulty in breathing, spots before the eyes, a dry cough, cold hands and feet and hundreds of other similar dis tressing symptoms ? If so you can make up your mind that your liver is out of order, and as soon as you have made up your mind to this, the sooner you make up your mind to get it in a healthy condition again, the better it will be for you. Nothing leads to such serious trouble as diseases of the liver, as shown by the above symptoms. Poisons which it is its duty to discharge from the body remain in the system. They soou become hoarded up in the other vital organs. They hinder them from performing their func tions, and destroy their usefulness. The blood becomes frightfully corrupt and it is but a short time before the sufferer is completely prostrated with an iliness that is apt to keep him many weeks from his work, if indeed he succeeds in ever again getting well. We should advise all sufferers from such complications to resort to that great remedy that was known and used by the Indians, Kickapoo Indian Sagwa. For a disordered condition of the liver, as well as for all affections of the kidneys and stomach, and for purifying the blood, it is positively marvelous.

I experienced the most severe sick headaches. lat last took Kick apoo Indian. Sagwa and it has cured me. I cannot say enough in its praise to all I Mieet. Yours respectfully, Carrie B. Newell." Kickapoo Indian Sagwa will do for any one what it did for Mrs. Newell. It takes but a few days to show the good results that may bo ex pected and in a short time, if persisted in, cures are always accomplished. This remedy can, be bought of any druggist for $1 a bottle- where Mrs. Luetgert was," said the witness. "What did she say?" inquired State's Attorney Deneen. "She said Mrs. Luetgert was upstairs in bed," responded the witness. "Are you sure she told you that on May 3?" "I am positive." Attorney Phalen tried to get Fulbeck to change the date to a day in the lat ter part of April, but the witness was obdurate, and clung to his original statement. INDIA REFUSES, Will Xot Open Her Mints for t«e Coinage of Silver. NEW YORK, Oct. 7.— A dispatch to the Herald from Paris says: The Her ald is informed from a trustworthy source that the Indian government, in reply to a further pressing invitation jby the English cabinet to consider i Senator Wolcott's proposals, has an ; swered that it cannot reopen the ques | tion of the Indian currency, and it | will not be a party to the reopening iof the mints for the free coinage of silver. In well informed English cir cles, adds the correspondent, it is not believed Lord Salisbury's government will dare to override on this question the decision of the government. Sen ator Wolcott's mission must thus be considered abortive. FINANCIAL.
