but not such large number as the excel
le1ice Of the acting demanded. Her support

Cluer in the injunction case of HOSpes

that logs cut in Wisconsin are floated down
the st. CrOix, boundary river, can never
lose their identity and become Minnesota
property. However, the greater number OF
them will obey the order of the court until
the next move is made. 1t looks as if the
fight has only begun, as counsel for the de-
PENDANTS are not discouraged in the least by
the decision rendered.

yesterday morning the alarm bells and
whistles sounded for fire at the corner of
Martha and Mulberry streets, the residence
of Mr.. John McKinnon being on fire. The
fire company responded as readily as posi-
BILE, but did not take the engine out, but
only the hose. The nearest hydrant to the
place was 1850 feet, and before the hose
was laid across the ravine to Samuel street
the place was nearly consumed. How
ever, the fire was stopped from spread
ing. Loss on the house and con-
tents about $500, on which there was an
insurance of 5000, placed with Armstrong

started at IL o'clock, the first at noon and
