Pendleton scouring mills:
"Wool damaged by fire In a Galves
ton, Texas, warehouse will probably
cost the New York &. Texas Steam
ship Company, J30.332. A Jury in the
United States circuit court last week
roturned a verdict for that amount
In favor of Judd & Root, of Hartford,
Conn.
The steamship company had been
engaged to transport $28,000 worth
of wool from Galveston to Hartford,
in July, 1896. The wool was destroy
ed by fire while stored in a Galveston
ware house, where It had been placed
by the steamship company, which de
nied Its liability, on the ground that
the wool was not destroyed through
the company's negligence.
The case was tried three times.
Before Judge Dallas, on March 5,
1897. the Jury disagreed. When tried
before Judge McPrehson, April 9,
1901. he instructed the Jury to find
for the steamship company, but the
circuit court of appeals reversed this
decision and ordered a new. trial.

WHEAT INJURED AT HELIX.
Frost Did Some Damage on the Low
Lands In Different Sections.
Helix, May 11. (Special.) The
winter wheat has been severely dam
aged by frost in tbo low lands and
north hillsides and much of the grain

over, the stalk having been frozen.
The rains of the past two days will
bring the frost-bitten grain up from
the roots and tbo crop will not bo

yield about as at present and rains
following the frost brought up the

heavy crop was harvested notwith
standing the setback from the frost.
