gard from Bremen, there were a
numbe rof immigrants destined for Rich
ardton, Stark county. Under the new
government regulations, the health
officer of each state is advised regarding

Northern Pacific Railroad company.

hotel supplies and refused to allow the
item. Hence the suit. Some $4,000 ID
in controversy.
