BY C. E. KILEY. GRAND RAPIDS, - - MINNESOTA. —_—_—X—X—X——K—K—_S—Ss UNIVERSITY HAS DEFICIT. Treasurer’s Report Shows an Impend- ing Shortage. The University of Minnesota will finish its fiscal year with a deficit of $26,257.08, according to the estimate of the funds and expenses of the in- stitution made by Treasurer J. D. Bren. As a result of this showing the Alumni Weekly makes an appeal to the general body of alumni to work for the passage of the university tax bill by the present legislature. It is pointed out that the income of the university has never been ade- quate to its needs, in that the regents have been obliged to curtail expenses by employing young and _ inexperi- enced instructors in too great propor- tions and increasing classes beyond «ll possibility of individual attention from their instructors, The remedy for which the alumni are urged to work is a half mill in- stead of the present 23-100 mill uni- versity tax. The present tax yields annually about $235,000 and, with the annual appropriation of about $165,- 000, constitutes approximately the in- dependent university income. It is estimated that 50-100 mill tax would bring in $500,000 annually. COMMISSION TO SOLVE PROBLEM McEwen Wants Three to Investigate Employers’ Liability. Settling the question of employers’ liability in Minnesota for all time to come, is the purpose of W. E. Mc- Ewen, state labor commissioner. Mr. McEwen has held a conference of representatives from employers’ asso- ciations, labor organizations and prominent lawyers, where the matter was thoroughly discussed. A report was sent to Gov. Johnson by the commissioner, in which the present principle of settling personal injury cases is scored as unjust to la- bor and expensive to industry. Mr. McEwen suggests the appoint- ment of a commission of three to be appointed by the governor, to consist of one representative from labor’s ranks, one from the employers and the third to be a neutral party, either a lawyer or educator, to make a sci- entific investigation and give a report to the legislature two years hence. In the meantime the labor department will collect all available data, and co- operate with the commission. STATE GETS BIG TRACT OF LAND. Secretary Garfield Decides That Min- nesota Has Just Claim. State Auditor S. G. Iverson and ‘At- torney General George T. Simpson have returned from Washington, where they held a conference with Secretary of Interior Garfield regard- ing the matter of swamp lands in the White Earth Indian reservation, Secretary Garfield decided that Minnesota has a just claim to the swamp lands, and the lands will be investigated at once by a federal cruiser and a representative from the state. All forties more than half swamp will go to the state, and all forties more than half dry will revert to the Indians, The land involved represents a value of millions of dollars and comprises 200,000 acres, WHITE PLAGUE GETS RABBITS. Minnesota Bunnies Threatened with Extermination. Wild rabbits in Minnesota are threatened with extermin_tion by the great “white plague.” This new phase of the tuberculosis problem was dis- covered a few days ago by a St. Peter veterinarian, and an investgiation he has made would seem to indicate that a large percentage of wild rabbits suf- fer from the disease. The discovery was made quite by accident and resulted from the find- ing of abscesses in the lungs of an animal. Suspecting a consumptive condition, the veterinarian consulted the pathologist at the St. Peter state hospital and an examination made by the latter determined the presence of great numbers of the bacilli of tuber- culosis. COMMERCIAL CLUB REVIVED. F. J. Bickford Chosen President of Pine River Organization. The Pine River Commercial club has been revided and a permanent or- ganization effected.

WHOLE NORTHWEST IS STORM-BOUND Wires Down, Trains Buried in Snow Drifts and Whole Com: munities Isolated. TWO KILLED IN MISSOURI Many Persons Are Injured, Property Heavily Damaged and Business Prostrated. St. Paul, Jan. 31.—Descending from! the ice-clad mountain peaks of th far Northwest and swinging north-; ward and eastward from the Western; plains, the most terrific blizzard in! years yesterday swept Minnesota, Wisconsin and the Dakotas. Wires are down, trains are buried in gigantic; snowdrifts and all manner of traffic is blockaded. The Twin Cities and surrounding country groped its way through blind- ing snow, driven by a sixty-mile-an- hour gale. Telegraph and telephone’ wires throughout the Northwest were pros- trated, trains stalled, _ buildings wrecked and whole communities iso- lated. Trains Buried in Snow, Last night the storm was central in the vicinity of Detroit, Mich., and the indications were that it would find its way out through the St. Lawrence valley. The day was one long fight by the telegraph and railroad companies to restore wires and rescue stalled trains. Early in the day all the roads sent out warnings to all-employes, or- dering them to prepare for blizzards. No freight trains were running last night in the storm belt in Iowa and few in Wisconsin and Minnesota. The Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul road reported practically all of its wires down. Their limited train from the Pacific coast, due in Chicago at noon, was nine hours later getting into Marion, Iowa. . One Train Missing. On the Minnesota division a freight train was stalled and passenger trains were held up behind it. Another train — a passenger, with neither diner nor sleeper—was reported miss- ing from La Crosse, as was another train which started to its relief. The best information obtainable at La Crosse was that both trains were stuck in the snow in South Dakota. At the general offices here no news was received concerning the wander- ers. That the passengers would suf- fer from cold and lack of food was taken for granted. Wisconsin Hit Hard. Milwaukee, Wis., Jan. 31. — Tele- graph, telephone and train service throughout Wisconsin is paralyzed from the worst blizzard of the winter. Wires became so weighted down that they broke in all directions, carrying hundreds of poles with them. The whole Northwest is practically storm- bound, and there is no promise of im- provement in conditions for the pres- ent, Madison was one of the cities cut off from the outside world. The wind and sleet cut communication in every direction.,-leaving the state of Wis- consin for many hours without news of the progress of the senatorial fight. Two Killed; Many Injured. St. Louis, Jan, 31—Death or injury to many persons, considerable prop- erty damage, delayed trains, inter- rupted wire communication and stag- nation of all outside business com- posed the results of the storm which swept St. Louis and its vicinity yes- terday. At Madison, Ill, Erwin Mikesell, blinded by the snow, failed to notice an approaching train and was ground to death beneath the wheels. In the same town Charles Jackowich was swept off his feet by the gale and fell so heavily that his neck was broken. Property damage was confined mainly to broken windows, uprooted trees or shattered signs. s Buncoton, Mo., experienced a storm almost equal to a cyclone, and report- ed that several buildings were wreck- ed at Pisgah, nine miles east of there. FINED FOR ILLEGAL FISHING. Three Hundred Dollars Assessed Against Fred Springhorn. Crookston, Minn., Jan. 31. — Game Warden Munch of this city arrested Fred Springhorn near Arnison, on the Lake of the Woods, and confis- cated 5,000 pounds of whitefish and pike which had been caught with gill nets.

Busse, mayor of Chicago, last night accidentally. shot and killed Mrs, L. C. Tuckerman, thir- ty-two years of age, of Milton, N. Y. The bullet struck Mrs. Tuckerman in the heart and she died instantly. The shooting occurred in the Walton apartment building. Mrs. Tucker- man was visiting her father, Gen. A. C. Girard, retired, who occupies an apartment in the building. Shortly before 7 o’clock, George Busse, in his apartment across an archway, was demonstrating the use of arevolver to Miss Bertha Lambke, his housemaid, so that she could employ the weapon in case burglars entered the place. Bullet Hits Woman. Suddenly the revolver was discharg- ed and the bullet went through two windows and, crossing the archway into the Girard apartment, pierced Mrs. Tuckerman’s heart. Mayor Busse was present at the shooting, and as soon as he learned of the fatal conse- quences notified the police. Mrs. Tuckerman was in a bathroom dressing when struck by the bullet, which crashed through the window at her side. She staggered into a hall- way. Gen. Girard and Mrs. Tucker- man’s five-year-old son Alfred rushed from an adjoining sitting rooom. “Oh, father, I’ve been shot and I’m dying,” said Mrs. Tuckerman, and ex- pired. A moment later Mayor Busse and his brother George came in. The mayor summoned a physician and no- tified the police by telephone. But the woman had died before the phy- sician arrived. No Arrests Made. No arrests were made, Gen. Girard expressing himself as satisfied that the shooting was purely accidental. According to the statement made to the police George Busse was about to leave for Cincinnati on a business trip. He did not care to leave his mother and the maid at home alone without some means of protetction. He therefore purchased a revolver and was instructing the maid how to use it when the trigger was pulled acci- dentally. TOT KILLED BY LION. Mother Finds Beast Devouring Body of Her Son. Balboa, Cal., Feb. 2—Her two-year- old boy killed and his body terribly mutilated by a monster mountain lion, and the fierce beast devouring one of the legs which it had torn from its socket, was the sight that Mrs. Chris Brown beheld when she entered the family tent, four miles from the Ho- tel del Mar, after a short walk last evening. When the mother realized what had taken place she screamed and almost threw herself on the lion, which growled savagely and backed slowly out of the rear of the tent, car- rying a mouthful of the human flesh in its mouth and disappeared.

BLAZING STEAMER GOES DOWN Not a Single Piece of Wreckage Detected That Would Give Clue to Identity of Vessel. Elizabeth, N. C., Feb. 1. — Ina tempest which seemed so violent that no steamer could pass through it, a big steamer fiying the American flag and with her stern spouting flame and smoke, was engulfed in the sea Sat- urday within three miles of the Dia- mond Shoals lightship. Reports from the wireless telegraph operator at Cape Hatteras say that those on shore had just time to train their glasses on the vessel and see the smoke and flame when she sank. It is said she had a passenger deck, and if passengers were aboard all are lost. No Time to Give Help. The City of Savannah of the Savan- nah line was within sighting distance of the burning vessel when she foun- dered. The liner could give no assistance first, because, even if the stranger had not sunk, the Savannah could not have gotten alongside, the sea run- ning tremendously high; and, second, because the -vessel disappeared so quickly into the deep. The Savannah sighted the unknown vessel hours before she sank. The vessels were fighting against the tre- mendous seas, the wind whistling through their rigging at about fifty miles an hour, the mercury register- ing almost zero. The storm increased in fury and, just when the Savannah and the stranger reeled toward the shoals the unidentified vessel was seen to be afire. No Signal Is Given. The Savannah’s officers and the crew of the lightship had just time to make out the character of the ship when, rising high on a great wave, her stern went in the water, churning it into foam, and in less than a min- ute she was swallowed by the sea, her bow going down almost perpendic- ularly. No signal of any kind was given by the unknown before she went down. Remains a Mystery. Hidden beneath the turbulent waves that roll wildly over Diamond Shoals, fourteen miles off Cape Hatteras, S. C., the identity of the mysterious steamer which went down there early Saturday, probably with all hands on board, remains untold. The daylight of another day fur- nished no clue to corroborate the tes- timony of those few aboard the Dia- mond Shoals lightship, who witness- ed, helpless io aid, this latest tragedy of the well named “Graveyard of the Atlantic.” When darkness fell upon the scene last night not a single piece of wreckage had been detected either on shore or on the ocean’s bosom, and it may be several days before any- thing is discovered. Doubted by Officials. The Savannah line steamer City of Savannah, which arrived at Savannah yesterday from New York, brought no news which might aid in clearing up the mystery, although her wireless op- erator caught the message from the lightship and was positive that the ship was described as a single funnel- ed vessel, In spite of the fact that those aboard the lightship report that they saw the steamer sink, government of- ficials at Norfolk and Cape Henry sta- tions are inclined to doubt that a self- propelled vessel with human lives aboard really foundered. Local ship- ping authorities declare that the steamer probably was an abandoned derelict. BASTINADO FOR FANATIC. Mulai Hafid Punishes Man Who At- tempted Christian’s Life. Tangier, Feb. 1—Natives bring the report from Fez that while the sultan, Mulai Hafid was conversing recently with a member of the French military mission, a street porter rushed up with a knife in his hand.

VISITOR MEETS TRAGIC DEATHISTEAMER SINKS [EIGHT WILLED IN BLIZZARD Four Men Freeze to Death in Chicago— Two Killed in Wisconsin—Danger at Albert Lea. Chicago, Feb. 1—Hight dead, two fatally injured and ten more or less badly hurt, is the toll thus far exact- ed by the blizzard which swept down from the Northwest and overwhelmed the Middle Western states. With telegraphic communivation in a demoralized condition it is almost certain that the full loss of life through the West has not yet been re- ported here, but up to the present the wire reveals the fact that in addition to the four men found frozen to death in this city, one man died at Milton, N. D., two at Fond du Lac, Wis., and one at Belvidere, this state, and that in Cincinnati two were fatally injured and ten more or less crippled. Belated advices from Albert Lea, Minn., tell of the worst storm in years, raging there Thursday, Friday and Friday night, demolishing the big brick smokestack of the Brundin Packing company plant and imperiling the lives of twenty men, all but one of whom managed to escape in safety, the unfortunate one being slightly in- jured.
