MERCHANTS HAD , GOOD BUSINESS Large Crowd Attracted “to City By Circus Yesterday Did Much Trading. The receipts of the retail mer- cantile establishments of the city yesterday were much larger than the receipts of an ordinary day’s business, due to the visit here of the Gollmar Bros. show. Circus day always brings large crowds to the city, and yester- day the trains from all directions carried hundreds of people at- tracted by the show. The people of the surrounding country are always told of the coming circus weeks before the performance is given and a large share of them prepare to do their trading when vistting the city in which the show is given, Asaresult, circus day is invariably a good one for the merchants, and yesterday ‘was no exception in Bemidji.

Mr. Swedback is satisfied that he has secured as nearly a full count as possible, but it is absolutely impossible to get the names of everyoae with- out the co-operation of those who are interested in seeing the city zet what rightfully belongs to it in the way of being rightfully represented in the state census.

MUCH DAMAGE IN CITY AND < SURROUNDING COUNTRY. Conservative [Estimate Places Amount of Losses Sustained at $25,000. With a roar similar to that which precedes a cyclone of suf- ficient yolume to hurriedly bring residents to doors and windows, the most terrific hail storm that ever visited North Dakota broke over Grand Forksat 11:30 yes- terday, and in the 15 minutes that the rain of hail continued damage amounting to at least $25,000 was done. The greatest damage was to windows and skylights and there is hardly a whole window pane left in the entire city on the south and west sides of buildings, ex- cept such as were protected by full length screens. Phe parade of the Forepaugh- Sells circus-had just returned to the show grouuds and the anim#ls were under the great canvas when the storm broke, and the fact that the storm did not occur during the parade on the down town streets probably saved many lives. The storm covered a very small area, according to the reports that have been received, but it is feared that much damage has been done north of the city on the Minnesota side, between Grand Forks and Granville, 15 miles away, and every effort to get reports from that section have been unavailing, the tele- phone line being disabled since the storm. At the university no hail fell and the storm extended but a short distance east of East Grand Forks, but very little hail falling at Mallory, so that the storm could hardly have covered a strip more than two miles in width, following the river closely. Band Getting Along Good. Band practice will be held at the city hall this evening and all members of the band are urged to attend. The organization is getting along yery well atthe present time and will be in good condition to furnish music for the Fourth. Fred Theriault of Cass Lake has been engaged to temporarily direct the band. Mr. Theriault has had consider- able experience as a director and the band is doing all that could beasked for under his supervi sion. Resisted Arrest. James McDonald was fined $5 and costs this morning by Judge Skinvik in justicz court after pleading guilty to a charge of drunkenness. McDonald was arrested yesterday afternoon by Officer Cunninham. who found bim in an intoxicated condition on lower Minnesota avenue, When the officer took him in charge McDonald made a hard fight to get away and it took the best efforts of the officer to-land him safely at the police station. Road Money Appropriated. The board of county commis- sioners is still in session at the court house today and it is' prob- able that the meeting will con- tinue tomorrow. About the only business transacted so far dur- ing the day was the allowance of $300 road money. to Port Hope township and $100 to Frohn township. Lawn Social. The Presbyterian church and Sunday school will give a social tomorrow evening on the parson- of the church.

San Francisco, June 29.—Edward G. Sellows, until recently consul general for the United States in Japan, hag ar- rived in San Francisco aboard the Pa- cific Mail liner Manchuria. Mr. Bellows brings renewed confir- mation of the boycott which the mer- chants of China have declared upon the United States manufacturers and on goods and merchandise coming from (% country. He adds a new phase to the condition of affairs by bringi: the = information that the Orientuis have carried the boycott to the nt that in many instances im- porters are having great difficulty in obtaining assisignce in the unloading of American piadycts. “There can % no doubt that there is a determined effort afoot in China whereby it is hoped to bring pressure to bear on the United States through the medium of the boycott,” said Mr. Bellows. “The object, as has already been exploited, is to force this coun- try to grant more liberal treatment to merchants and other Chinese who travel in the United States.” CONFERENCES IN PROGRESS. Further Efforts to Settle the Chicags Teamsters’ Strike. Chicago, June 29.—With several conferences in progress prospects of some important developments in the teamsters strike seemed likely during the day. Chairman J. V. Farwell, Jr., of the action committee of the Fmploy- ers’ association met with Aitorney Levy Mayer and discussed the situa- tion. About the same time Interna- tional President C. P. Shea of the Teamsters’ Brotherhood, still in full command of the strikers’ forces, met the members of the new “peace com- mittee” in his headquarters and planned for a meeting with the Lum- bermen’s association executive com- mittee to be held later in the day. Five indictments, each containing several counts and one naming twenty defendants, all involved in the strike investigation, were prepared during the day by Assistant State’s Attorney Fake. The indictments will be pre- sented to the grand juny immediately. It is said there will be additional in- dictments drawn up later and that all will be returned Saturday, which is the last day of the term. Bombs Schonl Building.
