WINNIPEG, Man., Oct. 20.-Winnipeg
rose in her might this afternoon to defy
the Canadian Pacific railroad law and
to enforce the mandate of the people.
The government caused it to be made
known thai they wanted large force
to go out to the crossing of the Canadian
Pacific railroad track bytheN OrthernPa-
cifc for the purpose Of backing the con-
tractors by force if necessary. A special
commission was issued by the lieuten-
ant governor and several hundred citi
zens sworn in to back the government.
Several hundred more joined the gang.
and boarding a special train, aStart was
made at 80 p. IN. to defy the injunc-
ton which had been issued by courts
yesterday to restrain the government
from effecting the crossing. The scene
was reached after half an hours run,
but, unfortunately, half a mile
of track had to be laid, and
with such a small gang poor progress
was made. The Canadian Pacific rail
road people were not idle. In addition
to the engine which was placed across
the grade some days ago the company
lad nine engines moving up and down
in front Of the grade defiantly. Besides
this a special train stood on the track.
1t contained $50 Canadian Pacific rail
road workmen taken from their work
shops, and all sworn to resist force. The
men said their sympathy was with the
government, but it was
BREAD AND BUTTER WITH THEM,
and they would have to fight. They
were armed with stakes, and ATTACHED
to the Canadian Pacific train was Supt.
Whyte's private car, containing a num-
Der of officials to direct operations.
They had Geographic instruments in the
car to communicate direct with Van
Horn. Alltheir special cOnstableS were
on hand, but when the government force
arrived the cOnstableS were served with
notices that the government had can
celed their commissions. The Winni-
peg crowd had all the necessary nipple
mentS for dragging the engines from
the track or blowing them up. AL
though the track-laying force worked
like tigers it became evident that rails
could not be laid up to the crossing
until long after dark. A council of
war was held and the government
decided to call off their forces
until Monday when all loyal citizens
will be asked to go out and force the
crossing. \ lively time is expected as
the Canadian Pacific railroad seems
bound to resist and there is a big legal
conflict pending. The people of the
province are terribly excited. They
declare that they will fight for their
rights and settle the question whether
the country can control the Canadian
Pacific railroad or the Canadian Pacific
railroad control the country.

A Hotel Keeper at Fargo Fatally
Injured in an Elevator Accident.
Special to the Globe.
FARGO, Oak, Oct. 20.-A terrible ac-
cident occurred at the new Columbia
hotel tonight resulting in injuries to
Landlord Kissner, which physicians
say will undoubtedly prove fatal.
About 10 O'clock the elevator
in the building started off
itself. 1t ran with lightning speed to
the top Of the building and returned to
within about four feet of the ground
floor, then suddenly stopped. Mr.. Kiss
ner reached up. got hold of its
base, thinking to pull it down
to its place, but was not
heavy enough to accomplish his pur-
pose. He was about to sommon aid
when the elevator started upward. In
stead of jumping back out of the way
Mr.. Kissner reached inside and attempt
ed TO get hold of the lever to stop the
elevator. He missed it, as the
car continued on its upward course
Mr.. KiSsner's body being only partially
inside the cab, was caught between the
upper casing of the door and the cab.
The space between the elevator and the
wall is only two inches, resulting in his
leg and two ribs being broken and inter
nal injuries. the extent of which
cannot now be ascertained, owing
TO his exhausted condition. The ele-
vator is of the combined passenger and
freight style. After being squeezed
through a siX-inch space Mr. KiSsner's
body fell back into the freight car just
below and was carried to the top of the
building, where the elevator again
stopped and Mr.. KisSner was removed.

The Need For Salt.

The importance of salt rs an ar
ticle of diet, according to scien-
tiflc writer, is overrated. A con-
tinued use of large quantities of
salt produces scurvy. The popu-
lar belief that an appetite for salt
is universal among the lower ami
mails is without foundation in fact.
Dogs, cats and other carnivorous
animals show no fondness for 1T,
and the same is true of the fruit
eating animals Even herbivorous
animals do not eat salt regularly
with their food, but only at long
intervals, which suggests the
thought that perhaps they take 1t
as a vermifuge. In certain parts
of the world where salt is unknown
antelopes abound in countless
numbers, and in parts of Africa
where salt is abundant, the ante
lope show no fodness for it. There
are many instances in which tiocks
of sheep and herds of cattle have
been reared successfully without
salt. In certain parts of Central
Africa salt is more scarce than
gold and to say that certain man
eats salt is to say that he is very
rich. Yet the people living there
have existed for ages and have
enjoyed the best Of barbarous
health, without IA taste of salt from
infancy to old age. Salt is not in
use in Siberia as a common consti-
tuent for food, and the same was
true of the North American
Indians previous to the continent
by Europeans and for many years
after, and is still true of the Pam
pas Indians of South America.
