In the most interesting and hard fought wrestling matches eyer pulled off in the city, E. C. Hanks, the Walla Wallachampion, last night defeated C. W. Dono- van of Minneapolis, who claims the championship of Minnesota, securing two falls out of three. The match took place at the Star theatre and was largely attended. Both men were in good condition, but Hanks had slightly the bet- ter of the match because of hay- ing trained down to his regular wrestling weight, while Donovan was a little over weight.

New York, March 14.—That the con- itions resulting from the strike on the [nterborough Rapid Transit company’s lines have not been adjusted was' plainly apparent during the day. Al- though the strikers had been repudi- ated by their national organization and even advised by their local officers to make an effort to get back" their old places and the Interborough company bad announced that the effect of the strike had passed schedules were more irregular and inadequate than at any time since last Tuesday. Even in the subway, where the company concen- trated nearly all its efforts for several days to perfect a force of operatives from amo he strike breakers and. where everything appeared to be ap- proaching a normal basis last week, the service was far from satisfactory. Trains were operated in fairly large numbers, but at reduced speed. All trains were greatly osercrowded. At the offices of the Interborough company it was announced that 500 of the strikers would be re-employed dur- ing the day. It was said that the offi- cials are gradually weeding out the in- efficient meu employed as strike break- ers and filling their vacancies with the former employes of the road. The company expects that in a day or two the trains on both the elevated and in the subway will be running in first class shape. Daniel J. Sullivan and Edward Had- ley of the failed firm of cotton brokers ‘of D. J. Sully & Co. haye received dis- charges in bankruptey from Judge Adams in the United States district court.

Montague of Crookston was in the cily today looking up matters relative to the Spooner contest case, which has attracted so much attension throughout northern Minnesota. Judge Montague is one of the at- torneys for the townsite com- pany which is fighting the case and states that he is almost posi tive that a decision favorable to the company will be handed down, “The only question to be argued,” said Judge Montague, “is whether or not a district judge is a county judge. The law states plainly that a home- stead tiling for townsite pur- poses must be made before the county judge of the county in which the land is located. Inthe Spooner case the filing was made before Judge Spooner of Bemidji, My opinion is that a district judge constitutes a county judge, and as a reason for this opinion I give two instances of where filing was made for townsite purposes before a district judge, namely, Maunkato and Red Wing. The land upon which both these cities are located was filed upon before the district judge, and in spite of vigorous contest the original claimants held the land.” - Judge Montague has been in Washington for the past ten days looking after his interests in the tight for regis.er of the U. S. land office at Crookston and states that he is reasonably cer- tain of winning out. Strikes Hidden Rock.

CHADWICK CONVICTED. Found Guilty on Seven Counts of the Indictment. Cleve:land, March 14.—Mrs. Chad- wick has heen convicted on seven counts of conspiracy to defraud the United States government. Fach count carries a penalty of two years’ imyprisonment and $10,000 fine. When the prisoner was informed of her conviction she went into-hysterics, denouncing -the court, tae jury and the officers. She was finally calmed and taken back to her cell. J. P. Dawley, her senior counsel, said the verdict was not according to the terms of the indictment and the case would be taken to the court of appeals at Cincinnati as soon as pos- sible. Mr. Dawley saw Mrs. Chadwick for a time at the jail and said she was somewhat prostrated over the verdict, } but he assured her he felt there were good grounds for hoping for a reversal of the verdict and that informa- tion cheered Mrs. Chadwick consider- ably. Mr. Dawley said that his client had a very unfortunate jury, men wholly unaccustomed to banking trans- actions or dealing largely in the bor- rowing of money, certifving checks, ete. Ii the jurymen could have elim- inated from their minds, Mr. Dawley added, the impressions they probably bad formed and tried the prisoner on | the one question involved in the indict- ment he felt sure that the verdict | would have heen different.
