Legal Department of Chicago Concern Advises That Local Situation Is as Before. St. Paul, Minn.—A desire on the part of Armour & Company to gather all of the Armour corporations in Minnesota under one head is advanced as the reason for the action of officers of the Armour Packing company in sending to the secretary of state a no tice of surrender of its franchise rights | in Minnesota and of its withdrawal from the state. < : The action is said to have nothing to do with the plans of Armour & company to build a packing plant at New Brighton, and those plans remain unchanged, according to representa- tives of the Armour interests. Attorney Urion, for Armour & con~ pany, states that the action of with- drawal was “ a mere formality” and without significance beyond the fact that Armour & Company desired to bring all subsidiary corporations of the Armour interests within the state under one control. “There was only one Armour Pack- ing company, a New Jersey corpora- tion, operating in Minnesota,” said Mr. Urion. “The company thought it best to put the whole enterprise in Minne- sota under the name of Armour & eompany. Hence, this formal, legal and technical action. That does not mean that Armour & Company have withdrawn from Minnesota by any means.” J. Ogden Armour is not in Chicago, so could not be reached for a state- ment, but J. W. Stratton of the legal department of Armour & company, said over the long distance telephone from Chicago: the Armour Packing company from Minnesota will not affect the New Brighton establish- ment. Armour & company are pro- eeeding with plans for that enterprise along the original lines. No change will be made at all.” Three Burglars Sentenced. Hastings——James Conners, W. R. Smith and G. H. Lee, arrested by Chief Lewis, of Farmington, for bur- glarizing the store of Nicholas Gores, in Hampton, and taking goods to the amount of over $400, on June 5, plead- ed guilty, and were sentenced to 18 months in prison. GIRL HURT DURING A RUNAWAY, Miss Kate Byrne Injured Near Clon- tarf—Auto Scares Team. Clontarf, Minn.—Miss Kate Byrne was seriously injuhed in a runaway accident 10 miles west of here. Her team becanie frightened at an auto- | mobile and she was thrown out. She clung to the lines and was dragged a; long distance before losing conscious- ness. Her head was cut and bruised and it was several hours before she was revived. MORE LAND FOR MINNEOPA. Purchase of Thirty Additional Acres Authorized by Iverson. Mankato.—As a result of a visit to the state public park at Minneopa by State Auditor Iverson, several im- provements will be made. His visit was for the purpose of investigating the purchase of about thirty acres ad- ditional land, which will increase the | size of the park to a trifle over one hundred acres. The park never looked prettier, and Mr. Iverson left orders for the purchase of the addi- tional land. An attempt will be made to. secure the old roadbed of the Omaha railway for an auto track to the park, and it was decided to pipe the water from a flowing artesian well half a mile distant into the park for the use of visitors. ALL CHICAGO MAY SOON WALK. | Street Car Men Considering Advisa- bility of Striking. Chicago, Aug. 2.—Possibilities ofa general street railway strike in this city are increasing. Refusal of the Chicago City Railway company to make concessions to its motormen and | conductors was met by union leaders with the prompt issuance of a call for special meetings in which 10,000 street railway employes will take up the question of wages. Killed by Derrick’s Fall. Glendive, Mont., Aug. 2.—John T. Joyce, an employe of Wren & Green: ought, railroad contractors, acting as foreman of one of the gangs, was in- stantly kifed by a falling derrick.

Deceased is survived by a wife and five children at Duluth and by a brother at New Richmond, Wis., where the body was sent. Two Take Own Lives. Lincoln, Neb., Aug. 2—Mrs. Thom- as S.

Virginia Prickett Bur rows will be his bride. The wedding will be solemniged at St. George's church, Hanover Square.

Bismarck.—Carl Rakow, state or- ganizer of the American Society of Equity, returned from a trip around the state, and says the average wheat yield will be eleven bushels. He saw no evidences of black rust. He has been in all parts of the state. Washington, D. C.—The following North Dakota postmasters have been appointed: Gerber, Stutsman coun- ty, John H. Gambs, vice G. W. Geroer, removed; Temple, Williams county, Knute Olson, vice G. A. P. Anstead, resigned; Woburn, Ward county, Eu- gene Poler, vice H. J. A. Murlowski, resigned. Minot.—Chairman Jos. Roach of the county fair committee, which was ap- pointed by the Commercial Club, has issued a notice calling the committee together to discuss plans for the big éounty fair. The committee, which consists of Jos. Roach, chairman, H. J. Schull, A. A. Robinson, T. J. Hor- ton and G. D. Colcord, have been working on the matter for some time and have two plans in prospect. Minot.—Though the $15,000' which has been appropriated by Andrew Carnegie for the erection of a library in this city will be forthcoming as soon as the proper resolution appro- priating the running expenses has been assessed by the board of city commissioners, it is not probable that any building will be done until next spring. A meeting of the library board is to be called this week, when the matter will be thoroughly dis- cussed. Their resolution will be drawn up and passed on Monday evening, and steps will be taken at once towards securing the lot. Langdon.—Jos. Power and other lo- cal parties have secured the option on a strip of land on this side of the boundary line, south of Windgate, and will put up a 40,000 bushel capatity elevator as soon as the C. P. R. spur from Windygate is completed to the line. The exact location of the eleva- tor cannot be determined until the survey is selected by the railroad company. The new elevator company will build their own track on this side of the line, and in all probability their building wil be located on the Pat Schelp farm. The elevator will de completed for us this fall, and building wil commence as soon as the railway spur reaches the line. Minot——Joseph Roach has started to cut barley on his farm one mile sast of Minot, and predicts that the yield will show an average of at least forty bushels to the acre. Beside this Mr. Roach’s wheat and oats are in the finest kind of condition and with but ordinary conditicns from aow until harvest promises to show an exceptionally big average. The conditions on Mr. Roach’s farm are put a criterion, however, of the pros- pects of a big crop of all kinds of grains in the vicinity of Minot and through Ward, Montraille and the ad- facent counties in general. The tarmers of northwestern North Da- kota have every reason to feel jubil ant this fall, for with the recent co- pious rains the crops took on a re- newed growth, and the best posted axports say that this section of the country is destined to have by far the biggest yield of grains it ever saw.

The spiritual welfare of Marble is being well attended to, the various Marble Mentions Seep ieee eee itteteti ; News Items of Interest Gathered ¢ O® 3 During the Week at the ° & n Town denominations showing considerable activity. The ladies of the First M. E. church entertained the village at an ice cream social in the town hall, the proceeds of which were present- ed to Rev. Spink as a token of the gratitude of the community for the ef- forts he is putting forth toward or- ganization. Rev. Father O'Gorman of Coleraine occasionally pays a visit and upon these occasions says mass at the school house. His pleasant face and smiling countenance are a welcome sight. Rev. Young, lately placed in charge of the Episcopal church at Coleraine, was in Marble today in quest of any and all members of the church of England, and is working hard to es- tablish a district congregation. Given the “Marble” Heart. Baseball seems to be on the wane and the local team, which is a mem- ber of the Canisteo baseball league, composed of. teams from Coleraine, Bovey, Taconite and Marble, has been quite unfortunate during the season thus far, having won but one game. This lack of success cannot be at- tributed to the management, which has labored conscientiously in behalf of good ball. Their indefatigable efforts, with the co-operation of the Oliver Mining company officials, have brought good players to strengthen the team and the failure to do things can only be explained by the poor support contrib- uted by the fans. Building at Marble. Building operations on an exten- sive scale are going on, and the vil- lage is experiencing a seige of pros- perity. The foundation of the new $30,000 high school is rapidly nearing completion and material for the sup- erstructure is being conveyed to the site. When finished the building will present an imposing appearance and it will furnish the residents of Marble with all modern educational facilities, as far as practicable, and will give then one of the best institutions of its kind on the fange. Three new stores are also in pro- cess of construction and their com- pletion will add materially to the as- pect of the streets. A. E. Perrier has engaged the serv- ices of C.

It is computed that 10,000 fish were removed to their new home. ene ee an ee 3
