fall do not get to Winnipeg often until the
May following. Winnipeg cannot possibly
meet the demands upon her. The
demand is so much greater than the
supply. st. Vincent is the most available
American point from which to meet this sur
plus demand, and St. Paul merchants, if wise,
will not delay in establishing branch bust
nesses at st. Vincent to meet this demand.
The opportunity is before them by getting a
foothold now and growing up with this to be
great international city.
THE SALE.
Mr.. Coolican then briefly restated the terms
of sale, and said he proposed to offer for sale
block II, between Taylor and Washington
avenues, two blocks from the Catholic church
property upon which fine buildings were to be
erected at once, and four blocks from the court
house. The lots were 25 by 40 feet back
to an alley. The lots would be sold without
any limit, the purchaser having the privilege
of one or more lots or the entire block. He
would first offer a center lot and work each
way to the corner. Bids were then asked, the
first response being $25, which was raised by
IS bids until $55 was reached, when it was
knocked down, Mr.. E. Lytle proving to be
the : purchaser, who took lots 10
and II. The next sale was lot 16, started at
S25 and knocked down at 500. Lot Is started
at $50 and was sold at $50. The bid for the
next choice was $50 and it was knocked down
at $50, the purchaser taking lots 10 to "a in
elusive. The first bid on choice in the other
half of the block was $40 and it closed with
$50, the purchaser taking lot 6. The neyt
closing bid was $50, the purchaser taking
lots 1 to inclusive and the balance of the
block, six lots, was sold to one purchaser at
$55 per lot. Total for the block 81 300.
This concluded the sale for last evening,
Mr.. Coolican announcing that the main OBJ
ject was to show how the thing was done.
They now desired the people of st. Paul to
familiarize themselves as far as posi-
BILE with the location and surround
ings of the lots to be sold, and
for that purpose they would have plat on
exhibition Monday at the Merchants, and a
gentleman in attendance to give information.
Mr.. Coolican is an active auctioneer, with a
pleasing address and good flow of language,
and especially free with catch phrases, such as
"catch on" "why don't you pile on, spread
out your breast and spit OUT "come up here
and I'll give you chromo,' swarm up to
your work. ETC., etc. 'essAAM
Under all the circumstances, though rot up
to the way they boom in Winnipeg, the sale
last night may be called success. 1t is to
be continued at the same place Monday
evening.

Railroad Accident.

A wrecked freight train near New port de-
tanned the Flying Dutchman several hours
Yesterday morning. Early in the morning a
freight train, one of the cars of which, con-
tained live stock, accompanied by man and a
boy, was coming up the river division of the
Chicago, Milwaukee & ct. Paul road Just
before the train reached Newport the coupling
of the second and third cars
broke which naturally separated the
cars, those that were detached falling behind,
while the locomotive with the other cars went
on for several miles before the engineer or any
one else discovered the fact that the train had
been cut in two. When what had happened
was discovered, the engineer reversed the
steam and started back after the missing link
1t was rather dark at the time, and
1t seems that the engineer had no
idea when he came up to the
lost cars. The consequence was that while he
was running back he ran into the detached
cars, and made fearful smashing up of some
of the cars that were thus standing on the
track. The car which contained the live stock
was covered up with the ruins of the other
cars, but fortunately neither the man or boy,
or the stock wereinjured. The wrecking train,
on being telegraphed for, went down as soon
as possible and succeeded in clearing the track
so that the Flying Dutchman came on, after
having been detained for three hours.

The average increase in the cotton states
26 per cent, amounts to about 100000 acres.
In the Northern Atlantic states, from Con-

of 2 per cent, the decrease being 10 per cent.
in Illinois, 2 per cent. in Missouri, and IL
per cent in Kansas. The estimated acreage
on the eight winter wheat states is 1925, 900.
In California partial returns point to an in

included in the list of strictly winter wheat
states. The condition of winter wheats is

dation will run their factory in the building
of the Pacific Power Company, corner OF
