Receivership Case Argned in Seattle. - LAWYER SPOONER CALLED DOWN Replies to Arraignment of Senator Sanders When Court Calls Him Back to the Subject. Seattle, August 23. In the Northern Pacific suit this afternoon arguments were made by Senator John H. Mitchell, of Oregon, and ex-Senator John B. Al len, of Washington, both for the Far 'mer s Loan and Trust Company; D. J, Crowley, of Tacomav and ex-Senator John C. Spooner, of Wisconsin, both, for the receivers, and by Col. Silas W. Pettit. wno wm close ror the railroad company tomorrow at noon. The addresses of Senator Mitchell, ex- senator Alien and Mr. Crowley were di rected to the legality of the jurisdiction of tho Wisconsin court, and the points I'ney presented were along the lines of argument made yesterday by Counsel C. W. Munn. Each was clear cut, and di rected without variation to the legal aspect of the case, the main point they endeavored to establish being that Judge Jenkins' court having taken jurisdiction, even under the defective creditors' bill. and that jurisdiction havelng been as sented to by tho defendant, could not now be subjected to collateral attack, Ex-Senator Spooner was allotted onlv fifty minutes, and he dwelt upon the mam point emphasized by his colleagues. During his remarks he began to speak In reply, to the arraignment made in the morning by Senator Sanders, and he was moved to the highest indignation as he proceeded. In a second or two lie had turned toward his opponents and com paring the implied attack on. J udge Jen kins to the aspersion of a. defenseless woman, was saying that the Judge was defenseless against taunt ind Insult. when Judge Gilbert Interrupted him, and drew htm back to the question before the court. The scene only lasted a few seconds, but was dramatic In the ex treme. Col. Pettit began his address at 4:30 and in his argurjiuut..; was unsparing in characterized as collusive the methods by which the present management of the road gained control. He declared that the receivers and their " adherents had misrepresented facts to this court, and, mereuy, through comity, had succeeded in securing the appointment hore.

Attorney Dickinson, of counsel for Durrant, is also an attorney for the imajorlty in the board of supervisors.

The basis of the objection to Crocker Is that after his acceptance- facts came to light which, If known before, would have caused the prosecution to challenge him.. CALDWELL FOR PRESIDENT.

Early in the day it loo".d very much as If there would be no race, for there was almost a. dead calm over the whole bay; but a slight breeze blowing from the east about 1 o'clock, however, the wind shifted to tho northwest, and as the afternoon wore on became stronger. At 2 o'clock the Manzanlta was at an chor near the sands opposite the grand stand, and a few minutes later the first boat crossed the line. Others followed in rapid succession, 34 boats In all crossing the line. Up they went before the wind, their mainsails and stunsails standing out like the wings of great birds. The scene at the first buoy was very interest ing, viewed from the wharves and the flagship. The boats rounded the buoy two and three together, almost at high tide, and with one or two exceptions kept pretty well together until tho north stako boat was rounded. Boat No. 13, of Elmore's cannery, com manded by A. Mattson, made a long run nearly due north from the first buoy. She sped along across the water at a re markable speed, showing the rest of the racers a clean pair of heels.

By the time she nut about the second time It could be easily seen by those on the flagship that she had guineu a great distance on the boats be. Washington, August 23. OflU'lals of the state department iwera gratified today to learn that Ambassador Ku3tis had made a move in the matter of the Waller affair, and had carried out a portion of rne instructions sent him. The department has felt that its efforts in this case have not been as ablv sec onded at Paris as they might havo been. and Ambassador Eustls explains in his dispatch that the delay has been due to tne absence of the minister of forelcrn affairs. The department believes that In a few days trie French government will make some response to the reiucst made tor ine papers in the Waller caso. O. D. TAYLOR AGAIN. Omaha, August 23. The Rev. O. r.

Washington, August 23. The report of the board of army engineers aonolntp 'by the secretary of war to examine and report on the effect the Iralnago canal ouid 'have on the waters of Laka Mleh. lgan, has been received at the war de partment. Jt Is probable it will not be made public until the return of Secre tary Lamont. It Is understood that the reoort finds hat the canal would probably reduce the averagu level of Lake r.tl.-hlirnn bout six Inches and possibly Lake Huron tne same. . This lower level, no doubt, wouiu oe oDjectionable to the shiDnint- in tercsts, but the fact that the lake has varied rrom one cause or another, such as lack of rainfall or imusual evapora tion, more than one foot in different years, ships have been built with a view to accommodating themselves to this re. duced level. It is understood that the position taken by the board is that the former variations are such as not to make tnis reduction of six Inches very great importance. It is therefore proDawe that the building of the canal win not De stopped by the government, DUN'S WEEKLY REVIEW. CHOICE LOTS IN HILLS FIRST ADDITION.
