ARETHEY TAXABLE?

Gross Earnings.

A Transfer Company's Appeal
Will Settle the Question as to
Gross Earnings.
The appeal of the Railway Transfer
company, of Minneapolis, against an
order of the railroad and warehouse
commissioners, by which request was
made to report the gross earnings of the
corporation, was to have been argued
and submitted yesterday before the SUI
preme court. Appellants counsel, how
ever, applied to have the appeal trans
ferred to the United States circuit
court, but Chief Justice Gilfillan de-
clared such motion could not then
be heard. By mutual agreement
the case was continued to July
16. when the application will be
submitted. 1t is claimed by the
company that their gross earnings are
not taxable, and the case is almost sim
liar to that of the Union Depot Com
pany of st. Paul, in which the supreme
court decided that the gross earnings of
such companies are taxable. The effect
of this judgment is to influence the
transfer company to have their appeal
taken to the United States court.
The general routine of the court was:
Charles l.. Travis, appellant, VS.. Min
neapolis Sweeper company, respond
ents; Charles D. Meyer, respondent. VS..

Reports Show Crops to Have Been
Greatly Improved Recently.
The rains of the past few days have
evidently been worth many million
dollars to the farmers of the Northwest,
as will be seen from the following re-
ports, being extracts from the Omaha's
crop bulletin: In Minnesota, Winnie
bago City, Garden City, Dundee, Lane
Creek, Av0ca, SlaytOn, Hadley, Lake
Wilson, Woodstock, Ash Creek,
Lnverne, Rushmore,' .Shakopee, Noun
tain Lake, Amboy, Prairie junction,
Jordan, Lake Crystal, Kasota, Madelia
all report the crops looking first rate.
The corn is doing we'll. the small
grains are in good condition and the
rain of Tuesday and Wednesday nights.
PipestOne and. Beaver creek report
things looking well and anticipate
two-tbirds crop of wheat and oats.
Magnolia reports that with favorable
weather half regular crop will be
yielded and corn and flax are looking
nicely. At Bingham Lake the wheat
has suffered from the drouth.
but all other crops are looking
well. At Ottawa crops of all
kinds never looked better; winter
wheat and rye have headed out, and
some fields of the latter are ripeniug;
early seeded spring wheat is also head
ing out, and corn is from twelve to fif-
teen inches high. Corn is little back
ward at st. James Oh account of late
frosts. but taking it all around things
look well. At Brewster flax. and corn
are standing badly, but wheat, barley
and oats look well.
Tn 1ouo pooi> pon;I uoo~or, Aoh
ton, Sibley. Doom. Sioux City, report
that the rain has done vast amount of
good and everything looks very promis-
ing. At Lemarr rain is badly needed for
the oats, but corn and wheat are doing
we'll.
In Nebraska-Hubbard, Dakota City,
Calhoun, Lyons Florence and jackson
report the rain having done great deal
of good, and crops will be firSt-rate, es-
pecially corn. Blair, Oakland, Craig,
Fender, Coyington, Tekamah, Bancroft
and Ponca report that the crop OF small
grain will be very light, being too far
advanced to derive much benefit from
the recent rains.
In Dakota = Sioux Falls, Mitchell,
Spencer. Salem and Valley Springs,
everything is looking well, and the
prospect is good for a large crop. At
Fulton, Montrose and Brandon the
small grains are looking better, bidding
fair for crop of one-third the average.
Hartford reports the small graiu, ex-
cept late fax, TOO far gone to make
full crop. All these points anticipate
fine corn crop.

WARM SOUTH ST. PAUL.

The fiourishing little suburban city OF
South ST. Paul is in the throes OF a bltter
municipal war, in which the newspapers ana
three or four city officials are engaged. Inc

while the journal is published by y. j.. Iodd,
son of the comptroller, and Aid. saunders.
The VoIkszeitung editorially pitches into
Todd without gloves and calls him Ian door,

translation OF its blast would be as follows:

GRIEF AND Loss
Combined to Drive Husband aud
Wife Insane.

Frank Rusicka, for eight years a
policeman, and his wife Josephine were
before Probate Judge Morrison yester-
day. and by DR.. Ancker examined for
insanity. This is sad and peculiar
case, when both the husband wife be-
come deranged at the same time-the
one from paresis and the other from
brooding and grief. Mr.. Rusicka, it
was found, is hOpelessly suffering from
the terrible disease, which is gradually
eating the brain out Of his head. His
lunacy tends mostly upon financial
matters, in which he has been unfortu-
nate of late. His wife, having had six.
has lost five of her children in very
short time. She is constantly brooding
over the loss, and while very quiet
lunatic, she is yet a fit subject for
treatment. and was, with her husband,
committed to the Rochester asylum
yesterday. Her chances for recovery
are very good, but her husband is a
mental wreck, and will decay in spite
of medical treatment,
