forth the most intenss interest in the
senate. Senator Borah, of Idaho, taking
the around that the testimony showed
conclusively that the negro soldiers of
the 25th regiment shot up the town.
Washington. April 20. Senator
Borah (Idaho), in course of a speech,
in connection with the condemnation
of all efforts to condone the offense at
Bn-wnsville. reviewed at length the tes
timony in the case and announced his
(oiu-lufion that, "It discloses the guilt
of certain members of the 20th infantry
as participants in the Brownsville raid
bevond reasonable doubt."
'If." he added, "they were guilty at
all they were guilty of deliberate mur
dermurder planned and deliberated
on and accomplished with deadly pre
cision. One point in which the rioters
failed was with respect to the number
f their victims. They evidently ex
necte.l to kill more than they did."
Mr. Borah dwelt upon the enormity
of the offense and necessity for con
digit punishment saying:
No mure serious charge than this
has ever been made against a soldier of
the Timed States. For less offenses
many a soldier has been condemned
and shoi at sun rise. To my mind it
was treason; if not technically so, yet
morally treason in its most aggravated
form.

Marketman Wants $300 For Water
Damage, and Clark Hall May Also
Bring a Suit.
A suit has been instituted against the
city by Mr. Henry Haymen, who runs
a meat market on East Trade street for
alleged damage to his business on ac
count of the lack of drainage in front
of his place. The amount of damages
asked is ?300.
This alleged damage is the result of
inadequate drainage on that part of
the street. When it rains the pipes
are not large enough to carry the water
fast enough to keep it from accumulat
ing on the pavement.
The city has had its street force
working to remedy this, and the trou
ble will be relieved.
It is understood that Ciark Hall, a
well known character, will sue the ftty
for an injury alleged to have been re
ceived by him on account of the back
ing of a street sprinkler.
Mr. Hall alleges that some days ago
he was sitting on a curb near Hands'
drug store, counting some money, and
while there a street sprinkler came
along and caused a dray of Davidson
& Wolf to back on him, causing an
