A Minneapolis Invention That
May Come to the Front.
The annual meeting of the stockhold-
ers of the Judson Pneumatic Street
Railway company was held yesterday
afsernoon in the office of James F. Will
Hanson, in the Wright block. There
were some thirty gentlemen present out
of the eighty stockholders residing in
Minneapolis and st. Paul. The follow
ing gentlemen were elected board OF di-
rectOrS.
W. L. Judson, James F. Williamson
and FL. L. Earl, of Minneapolis; Gen.
w. W. Dudley, Capt: t. ". Simmons
and ii. d. Cook, of Washington: and
Col. Lewis Walker, of Meadville, Penn.
The officers for the following year were
also elected. w. L.. Judson being made
president, H. d. Cook, vice-president
and general manager. and HI, L.. Earl,
secretary and treasurer. James
f. Williamson, of Minneapolis;
w. w. Dudley, of Washington,
and Hoadley, Lauterbach & Johnson,
of New York, were made the attorneys
for the company. Robert Gillian, of
Kansas City, the great cable engineer
of the world, who has been acting as
consulting engineer, was permanently
installed in that position. by closing
contracts that have been pending.
This company and their wonderful
invention is purely piece of Mime
apolis enterprise, the headquarters are
now at Minneapolis, and if Minneapolis
offers proper inducements the manu-
featuring plant, which will be an enor-
nous one, will be located here. The
pneumatic street railway, the model OF
which attracted such favorable comment
at the exposition last fall, has been
proven success. 1t will be remem-
bered that it was taken East for
testing and advertisement in
the great cities. A tract form
ing hollow square was laid out at the
corner of Ninth avenue and Twenty
seventh street in New York. Here the
invention is daily on exhibition. The
company have offers from seven large
cities to lay their lines and they will
soon begin manufacturing. Journals
on mechanical engineering have APP
proved the principle, as also have the
best engineers.
Among the men at yesterdays meet
ing who are interested in the company
were G. l.. Nevins, of the Farmers and
Mechanics Savings bank; l.. D. w.
Washburn, A. w. Gilbert, G. E. Pendle-
ton, Norris Golf, William A. Dana,

EIGHT-HOUR AGITATION.
Hn Impromptu Meeting in North
Minneapolis.

There was an interesting open-air
meeting last night at the corner of
Washington avenue north and Six
teenth street, held by the advocates of
the eight-hour movement. A dray, pro-
vided with seats, served as the speak
ers' stand, and there in the flare of the
torches II. B. Martin, Miss Eva Nc
Donald and Tom Lucas addressed good
audience of good peaple, there being
probably 200 present. Many passers by
would stop for moment to see what
was going on, become interested and
come over and seat themselves on the
ground with the audience.
Mr.. Martin spoke on the need Of an
eight-hour league. The need, as he saw
it, was that through it was the only
means by which the working day could
be shortened. If all working people
joined in the contest the eight-hOur
day could be established the first of
next May.
Miss mcdonald considered that an
eight-hOur law is needed. She made
graphic description of the people who
would be seen at the hours of $3.50, z, s,
and on the way to their work in the
morning, and then she showed the diff
ference in them.
Tom Lucas spoke to some length, gen
orally advocating the eight-hour move
ment.

Imitation Milk.

Assistant Dairy Commissioner How
ard has issued the following notice.:
There is person by the name of
Choat canvassing this city offering to
sell receipt to make milk that he
guarantees will stand the test applied
at this Office. His receipt consists of a
mixture of bicarbonate of soda, glycer-
inc, saltpeter, ETC., distilled in water
and one-third milk added. 1t makes a
white fluid resembling milk, but far
from being Its equal for food purposes.
1t is counterfeit product that can be
detected at once at this office, and any
person found selling it will be prose-
cuted.

Hon. Julius Caesar Burrows, of Mich
igan, told Minneapolis reporter that
he did not like the wide openness of the
West, and particularly that part of it
labeled Montana. He was Mortified by
signs hanging in Helena inscribed 'Ll-
censed gambling" Mir. Burrows is
probably more accustomed to the Min
neapolis system, imported from Maine,
of strict laws against gambling
and gentlemen's clubs to enable
the lawmakers to become law-breakers,
while the authorities pretended igno-
rance of what was going on. Of course
that is much more Eastern and cul-
tured plan, but it has not many more

STRIKERS ARE FIRM.
Several Important AccessiOns to
the Coke Workers Ranks.

SCOTTDALE, Pa, Aug. 6.-There
were several important accessions to
the ranks of the striking cookers to-day.
There are but Two OF three very small
plants in operation in the entire dis
trict. No acts of violence are reported
from any quarter to-day. Mcclure &
Col this afternoon withdrew their offer
of 81 per cent advance. The U. C.
Prick Coke company lost several thou
sand dollars in coke burned up in the
ovens. Charlotte furnace at this place
banked down to-day on account of hav
ing no coke and $50 men were thrown
out of employment. The Pennsylvania
Railroad company has suspended all
coke train crews ON the Southwest
branch. A number of furnaces and
other industries in Western Pepnsylva-
mia will shortly be compelled to shut
down on account of short coke supply.
The employees of the j.. M. SchOon-
maker Coke company, at Alice, jim
town, Sterling and Redstone, have, it is
said, accepted the company's offer of
81 per cent advance, but it is not
known when the men will return to
work. A monster mass meeting will be
held at this place tomorrow.

"THE PERSIAN Bird"
He Was a Bird of Prey and Has
a Victim Here.

Another victim of Il. B. Wards
monumental matrimonial activity has
been found in the person of a Miss
Emma Perry, who is now resident OF
the Northwestern hospital for women
in this city. Miss Perry was resident
of Providence, r. l., and a woman of
considerable property. 1t was there she
met Arthur b. Ward, as he then called
himself in the winter of 1887. She fell
in love with the dashing Arthur and
they were married the day after she at
tanned her majority and came into her
property. After the bridal tour they
returned to Providence, the brides
financial affairs were settled to the sat-
isfaction of the bridegroom and they
departed for Dakota. Last February
Ward INDUCED in his periodic mys--
FERROUS disappearance and Mrs. Ward
was left destitute. Through friends
in Grand Forks, Mrs. T. B. Walker,
president of the Northwestern hospital,
heard of her and brought her to Mime
apolis. Mrs. Ward is living very
quietly here and does not court any
publicity for her unfortunate mesal-
lance with the man of many names.
She is about to become mother.

BUELL. WAS PLEASED.
The North Dakota ConventiO

The North Dakota Convention
Took Stock in the Single Tax.
G. j. Buell. entertained the single tax
league at its rooms, at No. SOP First ave-
nue. south, last evening, with some &C
count of his recent trip to Bismarck, N.
D.,where he addressed the constitutional
convention on the subject of the single
tax. Mr.. Buell. told the league that he
was well pleased with the outcome
of his visit. He talked to the
convention over an hour, and
interested them to that extent that the
delegates almost forgot to adjourn for
supper. A good many of them piled
him with questions and he answered
with the best logic for his views he
could command. Il don't think there
were more than one or two old fossils
in the convention who failed to appre-
ciate what they heard, and l thought
the fact that they listened so well and
asked so many questions argued well
for the impression made. L labOred
with them on this point, particularly
that the farmer of the Northwest is an
exceptional business man in the fact
peoples shoulders by adding them to
duces wheat to be sold at Liverpool
prices in open competition with the
world. There is DULY one way he can
get ahead of that competition, and
that is to stop raising any more wheat
than the home market will take care of
at all advanced price. Now, go out into
Dakota and Judge for yourself how long
it Will be before that time comes.
Aside from the main object of my visit,
| can only say about Dakota that it will
have fairly good crop in some sections,
and in Others not more than half crop.
What Dakota needs is water. Parts of
of it get only about One-fourth the rain
fall it needs. Of course if civilization
could move gradually westward, taking
up the land in its trail, the planting of
trees and building of houses would in
crease the rainfall as it has done in
Kansas, but it is fact that large tracts
of land in Dakota, the best farming
land, are held by spectators. The
settlements are scattering and that kind
of settlement does not materially affect
the rainfall.
1.-The convention is in quandry about
the location of the capital. If the right
principle prevailed, believe it would
be located at the center of population,
at or near Fargo. The location at Bis
marck is fraud. The building, OF that
part of which is built, stands alone; the
land about it is plated and held
at speculative prices. The town
is dilapidated and | was told
there are not as many people therere as
there were five years ago."
A good many questions were asked
about Dakota and incidentally the
miners trouble in Illinois was dis
cussed. There, it was agreed the diff
Guilty was that the mine owners found 1T
more profitable not to work their
mines than to work them, but if they
had to pay ground rent they would set
laborers to work Immediately.
At the next meeting the league will
discuss the practical question, How to
put the single tax in operation"

License Inspector Ray had a rather
amusing interview with a sharp-vis-
aged woman who applied for a license
to run an intelligence office, yesterday.
The woman had but s., while the
license fee is $40. She wanted to make
some deal whereby she could deposit
the V as an evidence of good
faith and pay the remainder
when she bad made little money out
of the business. Ray smiled and told
her that the city wasn't doing that kind
of business. Then she got mad, insin-
uated that he was no gentleman, and
finally tiounced out of the Office. declar-
ing that she would open her office any
way and see what they could do with
her for it.

ness of heart induced him to lend DIR.
w. F. Carver 500 when that phenOm-

after breaking $4,000 balls in week

the advertisements the doctor in Fore

nOwned old Snowman and told him he
was a dear friend of DR.. CarVer's and

me, and was to have received $3.50 a
week. never thought but he would be
with me, and here the day before [ start
out he trundles off to Paris to shoot
there. OH he treated ME awful mean"
The doctor evidently is keeping up
the reputation he established in Mime

with in the lurch.
