GATES-CLARK DRY GOODS I West Third Street CLOTItinG McFadditi 622E 2nC8t STRIN "KOTTEX EGO" CASE GOES TO TRIA.ii. We Are Now Showing THE Latest Fall Creation IN Clothing, Hats and Furnishing Goods. Court Decides that Entry of Appcnr- of Indiana Administrator is Sufficient. The trial of the attachments of F. W.

Haushalter and L. iLoellke against C. F. Stein was taken up this morning in the city courc. This is the case in which the plaintiffs allege that they shipped good eggs to C.

F. Stein at Alton, that, he substituted rotten eggs and shipped back the cases saying he could not use the eggs which were shipped to him. The attorneys for the plaintiff asked for a dismissal of the appeal taken by Stein's attorney on the ground that no administrator had been appointed in Illinois, and that the Indiana administrator could not serve. Judge Dunnegan ruled the case still had standing in court and the jury was called to begin the trial. The court was enlightened on the subject of the different grades of rotten eggs.

Some of the men who testified were professional egg tea- ters and could reel off terms describing the various stages of decomposition a long time. 'Spots," "dry rots," "helds" and plain "bad" eggs were told of by witness after witness. The jury probably did not know there was so many kinds of eggs before. Nearly everyone is just content to let it by saying "rotten" eggs, but these witnesses had a classification for them all and knew by testing an egg just where to put it. The dry rot is the most hopeless form of an egg as it has simply dried up and lar ready to blow away with a good puff of wind.

The "spots" are In such an advanced stage of decomposition they look black Inside. The held eggs are in an early stage of decay and bad eggs are the ordinary kind. Judge Dunnegan ruled that since death had sealed the lips of G. V. Stein, the court must seal the lips of the other party to the suit, Haus- haltor, and therefore the plaintiff could not testify.

The evidence was given by men who worked for each party to the suit or was acquainted with the facts in the case. riactllSecond 50 pieces full standard blue calicoes Saturday and Monday per yard 5c.
