TO CUT THE CHARGES
AN ELEV VATOR WAR is AMONG THE
PROBABILITIES.
The Great Northern Elevator Com
pnny, Controlled by j. j. Hill. Will
Make u Reduction of One-Half i'm
Elevator Charges.

Duluth. Aug. S.-Thcrc arc rlllnors
current here that the Great Northern
Elevator company is preparing to make
a big cut in elevator charges at the
head of the lakes. This company. which
Is controlled by James J. Hill and is
operated in connection with the Great
Northern road and the Northern
Steamship company. has elevators at
west Superior With Il capacity of 3,O0O.-
oo0 bushels. The present wheat charges
made by the elevators are l IA cents
buShel for handling and storage for
the first twenty days and IL cent a
buShcl for each subsequent fifteen days.
1T is stated on what appears to be
good authority. although the Great
Northern officials decline either to deny
or confirm the report. that Mr.. Hill
has decided to cut the charges to IL
cent per bushel for handling and stor
age during the first twenty days and
IL cent per bushel for each following
fifteen days. This is Il cut of more
than 30 per cent. and its effect upon
the value of elevator properties. if the
other companies meet the cut. as seems
very probable. will bc enormous The
total elevator capacity here is 10000
coo bushels. and they have handled
from 80 to 10 million bushels of wheat
annually. With this cut put into effect
the earnings of the elevators here
would bc decreased from 100000 TO
S50O.O0O Il year. 1t will be readily seen
that if Mr.. Hill makes this cut and the
other elevator companies follow suit
the elevators ut Minneapolis will be
compelled to make Il similar cut as {,
measure of sclfprotection. 1t is said
that last year Mr.. Hill threatened to
store wheat in his elevators free of
charge. When the cut will go into cf
feet is not positively known. bur it
will probably be at the beginnin. of

Meeting of the Ned River Valley
Drainage Commission.

st. Paul. Aug. Sat a meeting of
the Red river valley drainage commits
sion at the capitol to-day the most ell

There We're present at the meeting Il.
&. Valentine of breckenridge. the pres
ident of the commissions; Gov. Nelson,
Secretary of State +. L. Brown, n.
+. Miller, chief engineer of the Great
Northern road: G. NJ. Miller. the ell
ginccr in charge of the canals. and n.
c. Rinchart the contractor for the
Sand Hill and Tamarac river drains.
The meeting marks the completion OF
the first two canals Engineer G. Nj.
Miller. in his report, showed that the
cost of the two was $42.997.57. which
is S14 4,449.43 less than the estimates
based upon the survey Of 1856. AT that
time it was thought that the work
would cost S147.447. The Sand Hill
canal cost SD. .19031, which is saving
of $40.035.69, as the original estimate
was $62,226. This canal is in Polk
county. Its entire length is seven miles,
and its width at the bottom twenty
feet. 1t is from three to ten feet deep.
The Tamarac river canal in Marshall
county is seven and onc-half miles in
length, with an average width of twcn-
ty feet at the bottom. The depth is
from three and onc-half to five and
one-half feet. with Il slope of one and
one-half to one. 1t is located on the
quarter section line. commencing at the
east side of town 15S, range rs, and
extends west to the west side OF sec
tion 2:'. town los. range 30.
Combined these canals render 2a0,0oO
acres of land available for farm pur-
poses which has hitherto been swamp
and unfit for any use. Even at this
dry period the depth of the water in
the canals is from one to two feet,
and the current strong enough to pro-
pei Il small Skiff. Now that it has been
demonstrated that the work is success
ful more canals will be begun at once.
The board voted at its meeting tn
send Engineer Miller over the ground
and have him make estimates on the
Snake river canal in Marshall county,
and the Wild Rice canal in -,orman
county. He is to make his report With
in two weeks. and on Aug. Is tnc COM
