THE STATE WILL MAKE STOVES.

Manager Loewenburg arrived In the
city today to complete arrangements
for transferring the property of the
North western Foundry Co. to the state
officials who were authorized to acquire
the plant In the name Of the state and
operate the same. The bofrd offered
$35, 900 but Loewenburg holds out for
$45, 900, which would leave the state
only $40, 200 to operate with.
II. b. Fleming, who has for number
Of years been the very efficient mana
ger. and probably knows more about
the conduct of this business than any
man now living, has been offered
the position Of superintendent of
state stove works. 1t will take about
ten men to supervise the work of the
convicts and the state Will make very
handsome profits.
PRICE AGREED.
Mr.. LOcwenberg came up this fore.
noon from Portland at the request of
the board and after a consultation with
Gov. Pennoyer and Treasurer Metschan
IL was agreed that the state should pay
$4,000 for the foundry plant. He
claimed $45, 900, the board offering $685.
300, the above sum being compromise.
The papers will be made out on Attor-
iey General Chamberlsin's return.
There were several appraisements made
~ the company owning the works and
~ experts ranging from $4,000 to

The Columbian ball at Madison Square

ficence of decoration and arrangement, and
of the large number of the worlds famous

who is a namesake and lineal descendant OF
Christopher Columbus, there were diplo-
matte corps. admirals and subordinate Off
GERS of every great naval power in the world,
and governors of neighboring states and
famous army officers. 1t was in fact gath
ering of celebrities so gloriously arranged
that the Oldest and most Travelled guest &C

he ever seen a parallel to the gorgeous pic
ture presented.
Mayor Gilroy, as the head of the munich

the guests of the evening. They stood upon
the reception dals, and just behind them
were stationed the committee of 100 and
honorary committees who escorted the more
distinguished of the guests from the en-
trance to their boxes. No precedence was
observed; every effort being made to lndl-
cate that the ball was a republican citizens
