small boy, brcathless and excited, APP
preached Officer Waters and told him
that a whole lot Of men were being killed
in a fight at the Gagnon mine. The officer

McLaggan and Rodda already there, the

The West Slope Prosperous,

E. II. Wilson has just returned from a
business trip TO Stark county and reports
the farmers in that section as being very
prosperous. The crops have been good
and the stock industry has greatly in
creased during the past year or two. Mr..
Wilson was particularly pleased with the
country around Taylor and Richardton,
where the wheat and oat crops are very
good; }. NJ. Tracey of Taylor having in
about $40 acres, and his crop will amount
to 5000 to 10000 bushels of No. hard.
Other farmers have like yield in proper
ton. Prairie fires have done considerable
damage in the county, both north and
south of the track, some farmers losing
their crops and winter feed, gathered for
stock. On this trip Mr.. Wilson disposed of
two quarter sections of land that the COM
pany had made loans upon and was COM
PEELED to take year or two ago, realizing
therefrom all their investment. The out.
look is encouraging for farmers who stick,
and some are now purchasing additional
land The same success is sure to come to
Burleigh county soon.

S4TTERLUND ALL RIGHT.

He and johnson Are Nominated on the
Regular Republican Ticket in the Ward
County District.
WAsHBURN, N. D., Oct 6.-[Speclall-
The notice published in yesterdays TR1B-
UNE, to the effect that a contesting delega-
tion from Mclean county went to Minot
and knocked John Satterlund out in the
legislative district convention, is not only
a positive falsehood, but it is in keeping
with the unprincipled methods of the few
sore-headed scoundrels who furnished the
TRIBUNE with such information. The re-
publcans of this district, at their conven-
tion in MinOt on the Attn inst, nominated
James Johnson OF Ward county to the
state senate and John Satterlund of Nc
Lean for the lower house. Both gentle
men were nominated by the unanimous
vote of all present. and they will sweep
the district by more than two to one
against any re-head the kckers can
bring out. The better class of citizens of
all parties in both counties are supporting
MeSsrs. johnson and Satterlund, While the
sure-heads and nOnentities constitute the
main opposition.
The three Ward county delegates who
went out of the convention joined with the
kickers from Mclean and put up Reishus
and Staley. Satterlund and johnson will
get the votes.

Painters Take IL Tumble.

MINNEApoLIs Oct. S.-A number of
carpenters and painters we're at work on
the new Central Baptist church this
morning. About o'clock the scaffold
on which five painters we're standing
gave way and the men were precipitated
to the ground. All were severely in
jured. J.. J. Jones was taken to the hos
pital with several ribs broken. He is
married and has two children. M. G.
Thorning sustained a severe blow near
the temple and was badly shaken up.
Andrew Oleson was severely bruised
about the head and on his right side.
Erick Youngren was badly, but not seri-
ously, bruised. The fifth man, whose
name is Sunnet, was severely shaken up.
Responsibility for the accident rests with
the carpenters who erected the staging
upon which the painters we're working.

The Sheriff Was the Best Shot.

B1RnasaHAM, Ala, Oct. 8.-Rube Bur-
rows, the outlaw and train robber, was
shot and killed at Linden this morning
by J. Carter, one of his captors. Carter
received bullet in the breast from the
outlaws pistol and is dangerously

have just arrived, give the following par
ticulars of the killing and shooting last
night: Burrows was locked in the sher-
IFS Office inside the jail and was guarded
by McDufee, one of his captors, and a
negro. Garter, the other captor of the

with the money found on Burrows in his
possession. Burrows got his pistols and

The President at Galesburr.

GAIEsBURG, ILL.,, Oct. 8.-After the
public reception, review and speeches,
President Harrison laid the corner stone
of Knox college. In the afternoon re-
union of the First brigade, the presi-
dents old command, was held in the op-
era house. To this it was found impera-
tive to admit only the old veterans and
their immediate families, and even then
the opera house was almost inadeqate to
the occasion. President Harrison was
escorted from the hotel to the scene of
the reunion by committee headed by
Gen. Daniel Dustin, United States sub
treasurer of Chicago and formerly colonel
of the 105th Illinois infantry. The ap-
pearance of President Harrison on the
stage was the occasion for an outburst of
cheers from the assembled veterans that
made the very walls tremble. General
Dustin then called the meeting to order.
After the applause had somewhat sub
sided President Harrison addressed tue
veterans of his brigade. At the conclu-
sion of the presidents remarks the ap-
plause brought General Dustin to the
front and that gentleman spoke briefly,
after which the president announced his
desire to shake each member of his for
mer command by the hand. After ad-
journment the veterans moved to the
stage, one by one, and grasped the pres
ident's hand. The president was then
driven to the hotel where he retired to q
private room until 6 p. m. This evening
the president attended banquet given
by the Phi Delta Theta society at Col
lege hall, and later banquet given by
the First brigade at the First Christian
church. A committee from the Ottumwa,
Ia, corn palace arrived to-day to escort
the president there tomorrow.

A Company Formed to Establish a Tin
Plate Mnnufactory in Chicago.

A Company Formed to Establish Tin
Plate Mandatory in Chicago.
CHICAGO, Oct. 7.-The Illinois Steel
company will engage in the manufacture
of tin plate in Chicago. It will have an
extensive and costly plant Tor this pur-
pose, to be established at an early date.
Probably English and eastern capital
lists will have an important interest in
the new business. About the enterprise,
reporter yesterday talked with O. w.
Potter, who is enthusiastic concerning
the venture. He is a director in the
steel company and was president of it's
predecessor, the North Chicago Rolling
Mill company. II think I can safely
say" declared Potter, "that within eigh-
teen months tin plate will be manu-
featured in Chicago by. our company"
"Wi'l the manufacture Of tin plate here
be practicable and protitable?' "En-
tirely so. The steel company with it's
works will be able to roll steel as thin as
tin plate, and now that the tariff is SO
high as to make it secure in the new
enterprise. there's no reason why it
should not go ahead at the earliest pos
sible moment. A large proportion of
the work would be done by machinery
in place of by hand, as it is done in
Wales" "You regard it then, as an i'm
portant enterprise?'' Every. Why,
there are between $4,000 and 100000
tons of tin plate used in this country
every year and not a pound of
it is manufactured here-more ton
age than steel rails used by rail
roads. TO be exact, there are 100000 tons
consumed annually and Chicago could
manufacture every pound used in the
United states" The Illinois Steel COM
pany is a consolidation of the North Chi
cago Rolling Mill company, with a roll
ing mill at North Chicago, South Chica-
go and Milwaukee, and the Joliet Steel
company. 1t is corporation with abund-
ant capital and extensive plants. Tin
ore is now being mined in the Black
Hills in large quantities, and at the pres
ent rate there will soon be enough tin
plate product above ground to supply
the United States with all the tin plate it
can use. The Eta Mining syndicate
and the Harney Peak Tin Mining COM
pany, with all their vast claims in the
Black Hills, have united and formed
what will hereafter be known as the Con-
solidated Tin Mining company of the
united States. The company has now
bought up S3,000,0O0 worth of claims.
OF the entire Black Hills district, which
covers about 60 by $50 miles, it holds
perhaps twenty-five square miles. It has
an army of men at work in the mines,
with pay roll of 100000 per month.
The ore is hauled to Rapid City, where
it is converted into pig tin. Branches of
the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy and
other railroads will soon be extended to
the mines.

Wales WinnOwinrS.

Mrs. Linda w. Slaughtprs school at
Wales closed a successful term of six
months on Friday with an excellent litera-
ry and musical entertainment before an
apprecative audience in the evening, at
which Mr.. Phillip Harvey, chairman of the
school board, presided.
Michael Smith, a gentleman of leisure
from Bismarck, went to Slaughter with
the mail carrier on Friday to talk politics
to the farmers. Mr. Smith has POSTPONED
his intended visit east until after the cleo
ton.
Up to the northward can be seen the
heavy clouds of smoke that still hang over
the devastated homesteadS of our neghbors
at Slaughter, and our farmers, whose hav
and grain are still ;>iicld, are anXiously
watching the distant line of flame that is
slowly moving southwark, but SO far the
wind is blowing favorable tC us and the
fire makes slow headWay.
Comrade E. Tibbils of Bismarck has won
the gratitude of our old soldiers by aiding
them to obtain their per sions under the
new law.
1t is said that some of the foreign-born
citizens of this county who cannot read
English have guarded against the trick i'm
posed upon them by ticket ped
dlers from Bismarck at the
election last year, in palming
off upon them nti-prohibition tickets
which were the opposite of those they de-
sired to vote. They have imported hand
printing press that can be relied upon to
print their tickets straight.

Destructive Fires on the West Slope

Destructive Fires on the West Slope
Parties from north and south of Mandan
bring in news of the disastrous character
of the late prairie fires noticed on the west
side of the river. The Riverside Ranch
company, in the southern part of Morton
county, lost 300 head of stock, sworth SlO-
600. A settler by the name of Carlharm
narrowly escaped, while his horses were
burned to death. He had been plowing
fire break and ran towards the flames
while the horses ran from it and were over
taken. II. S. Parkin, on the Cannon Ball.
lost forty head of cattle. A number of
settlers had all their hay destroyed in ad-
dition to the range and many cattle were
burned to death: The fire leaped over
break 200 feet wide. 1t is estimated that
south of the Northern Pacific in Morton
county over 100000 worth of damage is
done. Reports from the Killdeer noun
tains, northwest of Mandan, are that
the range, hay and cattle were burned to
the value Of thousands of dollars. 1t was
the worst and most destructive fire ever
known west of the Missouri river.

Grafton News: Hon. Gilbert A. Pierce
has been asked by some of his friends, why
he is not at home, looking after his politi-
cal fences, and, in a private letter which
he recently wrote, he says that the tariff
bill is of vastly more Importance to his
constituents than his reelection; and since
any absent republican vote will put the
measure in jeopardy, he deems it his duty
to remain at his post. These are good,
brave words, and we doubt not, will be
duly appreciated by every republican sena-
tor and legislator. s

The Death Roll,

WILMINGTON, Del, Oct. 8.-The fol-
lowing is corrected list of the killed
and injured in yesterday afternoons ex-
plosion at the Dupont powder mills:
Killed-Wm. R. Green, solderer, worked
in magazine, and leaves wife and four
children; body found entire. VIM. G..
Garvey, laborer, aged 40, single; head
blown off and body found. Martin Do
Ian, aged IS, employed in one of the
granting mills; leaves family. James
Dolan, aged 30, single. John H. Harri-
gan, laborer, aged 80, married. Michael
Harrigan. Patrick Dougherty, aged 80,
married. John Newell aged so, en-
ployed in the yard; leaves family. John
Herlsher, laborer. Michael Herlsher, Ia
borer. Mrs. Rosie Dougherty, aged 80,
found in the garret of her house, crushed
by the roof; died from her injuries short
ly after the accident. Twenty others
we're injured. The men who were killed
were all working IN and about the mag
azines at the mills and, except in the
cases of thEee-Wm. r. Green, VIM. Nc
Garvey and Patrick Dougherty-were
blown to pieces, so that only fragments
of their remains have been found. The
body of Patrick Dougherty was found
this morning in the water of the race
along the north shore where it had beer
blown by the explosion. The body of
Green was found just outside the ruins of
the magazine in which the first explosion
occurred, and, strange to say, was not
mangled or burned. It is the theory of
the workmen that the explosions were
started in some way by soldering
iron which Green was using in soldering
tin covers on cans of powder. This work
is extremely dangerous and Green was
the only man trusted to perform it. He
was an old employe, who thoroughly
understood his work, but it is supposed
that his soldering iron became too hot
and that its heat fired the powder in
spite of his earefullness. Green and Nc
Garvey we're the only men in the maya
zine at the time. The wounded are being
cared for by neighbors and friends and
the dead bodies are prepared for burial.
William Green was buried this after
noon. The 800 or 400 homeless people
were provided with comfortable quarters
by their friends living in more favored
localities and will be looked after until
their homes can oe restored.
ANOTHER VICTIM. -.
WILMINGTON, Oct. S.-The death of
the infant son of Thomas Dougherty
from injuries received by falling timbers
brings the powder mills fatalities up to
twelve. OF the injured all are reported
doing we'll, apprehension of fatal result
being entertained only in Daniel Har.
kin's case.

Rsouth Dakota's Survey Appropriation.

Huron, S. D., Oct. S-Surveyor-Gen-
eral Sullivan says that none of the $780,
600 appropriated by congress for the sur
veyor- generals office for South Dakota
will be available before spring. The
amount is $4,000 more than was allowed
the Office last year, but it is too late to
be used for surveying the present season,
and is none too much to carry on the
work necessary to be done in conse-
quence of the vast area of lands recently
opened to settlement and those already
taken by settlers and not yet surveyed.
The appropriation is appreciated and
will be used in the most economical and
judicious manner possible.
