Rhodes. or Have Their Supplies shut
! on -
ST. PAUL, Mimi, March 1S.-Matters
are coming to focus with great speed
in the fight of the Minnesota legisla-
ture against the coal combine. Nearly
fifty letters from the letter book Of
John J. Rhodes, manager of the MINI
nesota bureau of coal statistics, were
given out by the joint committee last
evening, showing that the coal COM
! bine requires every wholesale coal
dealer in Mipnesota to pay 81. 600 70
John J. Rhodes; that every retail dealer
had to pay him 500; that all had to
swear to hold to prices fixed by the
combine, and all refusing to join in the
combine had their supply cut of. The
damaging letters given out are signed
by John j. Rhodes. One, dated Sep
TENDER 8, 1892, and addressed to q. J.
Wilson. North Minneapolis, says that
Wilson is furnishing coal to Estes, q
retail dealer in New Boston. Mr.. Estes
Is not q subscriber to the bureau, and
Mr.. Rhodes orders Mr.. Wilson not to
Sell him coal
Armstrong q Co.. OF Minneapolis, un-
der date of October IS, 1892, are In
structed not to continue furnishing
coal to T. E. Smith, Of New Boston.
for the reason that Smith is not SUBJ
scriber to the bureau. Rhodes closes
this letter by saying that IL Smith
wished to remain in the coal business
he must come into the combine. Thus
the letters run all through.
The books of the combine, with the
exception of the letter book, were re-
turned to John J. Rhodes yesterday
afternoon. The letter book will be
turned over to the grand jury by the
legislature with . request that it
brings indictments for criminal COM
spiracy under Chapter L Of the general
laws Of 1891, the penalty for which il
! fine from $500 to Is, 600.
In the meatime John j. Rhodes has
brought suit for 8, 900 damages against

ing of creditors of the Fairfax bank
Thursday f. A. Gray, cashier, said the
suspension was due to the failure of
farmers to pay notes, owing to poor
crops, and the crowding of depositors
for funds. Six thousand dollars was
required to carry the bank over to next
fall. of which IS, 500 was needed at once.
The proposition did not meet with
much favor and the cashier and dele
cation of creditors went to Redwood
Falls to arrange for an assignment or
tine appointment of q receiver. Cashier
Gray says the assets and liabilities will
about balance, but gives no figures.
Depositors say the liabilities will foot
up Sl2, 600. The assets are mostly in

It Floods Thousands OF Acres OF CaIifor-

ai,OOO,OOO.
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec 30. = Reports
from the Sacramento and San Joaquin
valleys show that the damage by flood
will go above $1,000, 000 The capital
city is safe, but all along the river fine
wheat land is covered with water. In
Sutter county few miles below CO.
lusa, the levee broke and so, 900 acres of
the most fertile land in the state are
several feet under water. The unfortu-
nate people have fled and left their live
stock to perish. The loss to owners
and renters will be at least $500, 900.
Below Colusa a few miles there were
inclosed in levee some 1000 acres.
The levee broke and the whole is sew
eral feet under water. This is very
fine piece of wheat land and the loss is
great. Below Sacramento City the
levees have given way in several places
on the folo county side and big dam
age has resulted. Many ladies were en-
gagged in running sewing machines and
turning out coarse jute bags in order
that they may be filled with sand to
protect the weak levees that guard the
ranches of husbands or brothers from
ruin. Relays of patrols are guarding
the levee for many miles. The water
is slowly falling, as the storm is over.
The San Joaquin is higher than ever
known before and stoclsmeu having
cattle on the ranges behind Tracy are
moving their stock. The weather being
somewhat cooler, it is hoped the water
will fall rapidly. The entire dam
across Stephenson creek in Fresno has
been swept away. 1t was 81 feet high,
200 feet long, built of granite and faced
with planlls. A million feet of lumber
and the sawmill We're washed away.
The entire loss is estimated at Sl50, 900.
Stephenson's hotel was torn in two
| and about dozen small residences
were washed away. No one was living
in the houses, the mill having been
| shut down.

A. H. Fairchild Killed by Dynamite Ex-

New YORK. Dec. 31.-A. Ii. Fairchild,
one of the most skillful marine divers
n the country, met 4 peculiar death
in 35 feet of water at the end of the
lnman line pier in the North river. He
went down into the water in his diving
suit, carrying with him several sticks
of dynamite to be used in blasting out
the rocky bottom. After he had been
under water several minutes the men
overhead, who were pumping air
to the diver, heard u mutiled ex-
plosion and the water was disturbed.
Not answering signal Fairchild
was pulled up. His helmet was crushed
into the side of his face and the dyna-
mite had evidently exploded while
Fairchild was ramming it down. On
examination it was found that the con-
cussion had snapped the valves of his
heart, killing him almost instantly.

Execution OF A. J. Hudspeth at Harrison,
Ark, for the Murder of Man Whose
Body Was Never Found.
LITTLE Rock, Ark, Dec. 31.-A. J.
Hudspeth was executed at Harrison,
Ark, Friday for the murder of George
Watkins in 1887. Hudspeth was
hanged for the murder of a man whose
body was never found. The murderer
worked for Watkins on farm in
Marion county. One morning in
the spring of 1887 Hudspeth and
Watkins went to town. Since
that morning Watkins has never been
seen. Hudspeth was arrested on sus-
picion of murder. Mrs. Watkins was
afterwards iucarcerated charged with
being an accessory to the taking
off of her husband. She was taken
fatally i'll, but before dying con-
fessed that Hudspeth killed her
husband to get him out of the way so
he could marry her. Hudspeth was
sentenced to be hanged. The case has
been appealed and retired, two respites
have been granted, and the fate of eX-
ecution changed three times, but all
efforts to save the murderer failed.
