Mr.. j. F. INGEsoLL appeared before
the board of aldermen on Monday even
ing on behalf of the G. & H. G. & I. Co.
desiring to ascertain the sentiment of
the board in regard to dredging the river
from the harbor piers to the company's
dock to uniform depth of sixteen feet.
He said his company would want to put
in at least 10000 tons of coal next season
and that it was very desirable to Lave it
delivered here by the larger class of YES
sells to insure quicker handling. The
board passed resolution to the effect
that the dredging of sixteen-foot chan
mel was necessary and should be made
as soon as the ice goes out. Specifca-
tions will be prepared and contracts en-
tered into so that the work may be done
at the earliest practicable moment.

ONE Of the many reasons why You

only in that way can you keep posted on
the many bargains we are continually
Offering, and very often closing out en-
tirely before you would have an oppor-

absolutely necessary that you should call

The outlook for a remunerative season
for owners of vessels engaged in the
carrying of coarse freights" the coming
season is not regarded as very hattering.
The grounds for this view may be found
in the fact that the extreme depth of
snow in Northern Wisconsin and Michi-
gan has prevented the cutting of the
usual amount of pine, which will of
course make scarcity of lumber The
amount of cedar will also be much cur
tailed for the reason that the heavy snow
has prevented the swamps from freezing
sufficiently hard to enable the removal of
the timber upon them. In a number of
instances logging operations in camps
north of Green Bay, the output of which
would naturally furnish freight for lake
vessels, have been suspended entirely
while reports from the small lake stations
are to the effect that but comparative
ly limited amount of ties, posts, ETC., is
being delivered.

THERE is an old man in the town of
Coooperstown, a farmer, who is bent on
developing copper mine on his farm,
claiming to have been directed to it by
the spirits. He began operations on it
some weeks since and with the aid of
eight men employed has sunk a regular
shaft to the depth of 60 feet. Last week
water was encountered which necessitat-
ed the ordering of a pump from Chicago
at an expense Of about 800. Being
placed in position, work was resumed
and is now being prosecuted diligently.
No traces of copper have been found, but
the old man has an abiding faith in the
value OF the mine" and will not be dis
ccuraged. Several hundred dollars have
already been expended. 1t is said there
are any number of people in the neigh
borhood who share the old mans belief
that a bonanza is to be developed.

ohio as a wheat Growing state.

The poor prospects of the growing
wheat crop in Ohio with the deficient
crops OF one or two proceeding years,
has led many to discouraging concu-
sion that the State is about played out
rs wheat producer, aud that the far.
mers had better turn their attention to
the cultivation Of some more reliable
and better paying crop in its stead. We
recollect a period, many years ago, when
there was worse discouragement than
that new existing, and IL was thought
Ohio was absolutely done for as wheat
growing State. II was when the crops
Of two or three successive years were
nearly destroyed by the little red weevil.
But Ohio after that attained her highest
position as a wheat producer; standing
for years, If we mistake not, at the head
OF the States in that respect. So now, il
the present discouragement should re.
suit in large diminution next year in
the number of wheat farmers and in the
accrage sown, the few who adhere To
that crop may possibly reap great har.
vests. A result like that would proba.
bly, bring about new wheat growing
boom in Ohio. Lancaster Gazette.

THE DEAD EMPEROR.
A Post-Mortem Examination Reveals the
Fact That He Died From Cancer.

A Post-Mortem Examination Reveals the
Fact That He Died From Cancer.
BERLIN, June 1.-THE post-mortem OK.
animation to-day was confined to dissec.
tion Of the neck, larynx and lungs. In the
larynx, which was found to have been do.
stroyed by suppuration, was cavity
about the size of q clenched fist. DIR.
Mackenzie states In tho report, which he
prepared at the command Of Emperor
William, that the disease was beyond
doubt cancer of the larynx. He adds that
the diagnosis was rendered very
difficult, as the disease attacked
the cartilage of the larynx at the out.
SGT and afterward developed chiefly in the
lower part Of the cartilage. The National
Zsftany says that the autopsy proved
that tho larnyx was completely
destroyed by cancer, and that
putrid bronchitis existed. There was also
in illumination Of the finer ramifications. of
the bronchial tubes, into which pu.rescent
particles had entered. The whole larnyx
was in q state Of suppuration, and pre-
sented soft, lumpy mass, with scarce
ly any trace of cartilaginous struc-
ture remaining There was nothing to
show the existence of perforation of the
walls separating the trachee and esopha-
gus. The choking sensation from which
the Emperor suffered during the last days
OF his life, which was attributed to such o
perforation, appears to have been due to
collapse of the larynx owing to the de-
struction of the cartilage. The direct
cause Of death is given rs paralysis Of the
lungs. The postmortem examination oc
cupied one hour.

Road Agents Work . Railway Train, AFTER
Compelling "Reminiscences OF tho EN-
pioyes-- Montana's First Experience In
She Line.
HELENA, MoNT., June 17.--Montana has
had It's first experience with train-robbers.
Fever before in the history Of the Terri
tory has any attempt been made by road
agents to emulate the example Of the mem
bers Of the craft In Texas and New Mox-
leo, and therefore all Montana stands
aRhast and mourns because Of the stain
that has been put upon her character. The
scene OF the hold-up was at Junction City,
on the Northern Pacific railroad, sixty
five miles east Of Billings and Miles City,
No. 1 express, bound West, reached tho
point named about II o'clock last night. 1t
was running at the usual rate Of speed
when Engineer Sargent saw q man on the
track a considerable distance ahead wav-
ing a torch. He stopped and masked
man appeared at the steps Of the engine.
Some one fred bullet through the cab,
and Sargent was ordered to throw up his
hands and got out Of tho engine, which he
did. The mon we're standing about masked,
eight Of them, and they moved down to the
express car, prying the door open with the
engineers pick. Sargent was made to
crawl through the aperture and advise
| the messenger that he had better sur
render. He was inclined to resist at
first, but finally weakened and gave
| up the keys. About $400 was secured from
the safe. The robbers, who were un.
doubtedly cowboys, remained about tho
| express car and engine for at least thirty
minutes, making no attempt to molest the
passengers in the coaches and sleeper.
Their incessant firing gavo tho passengers
. pointer as to what was going on, and
they employed their time to advantage in
concealing their money and valuabes.
Finally the gang, with tho engineer in
front, started through the coaches.
| A guard was placed Mt the door
Of each car. The passengers were
very much alarmed and excited, but no
violence was offered. The guards on tho
platforms kept up a constant fusillade
and this added to the alarm Of the women
especially. No watches or jewoiry were
taken from the mon, but all the cash that
could be found was gobbled. The sleeping
cal. conductor gave up $40, and the losses
Of the passengers will foot up $780, The
robbers consumed about two hours
in the work. A passenger who
offered slight show Of resistance
camo near being killed. A shot was
fred at him which cut through his hat
and passed out tho window. The fireman
was allowed to return to his engine after
the robbers had stationed the guards at
the door, butthe engineer was held in close
custody until tho robbers had finished the
job and disappeared in the darkness Of
tho night. The train reached Billings two
hours late, and the shorif soon organized
posse which started in pursuit. Moth
ing has been heard from them as yet. Tho
robbers, without doubt, belong to the
cowboy fraternity.
