TIED UP AT GRAND FORKS.

Strikers Prevent Trains From Going
Further West.
GRAND FORKS. N. D., April 17.-All
trains on the Great Northern at this
point are laid up. The morning train
from St. Paul was on time, but was
held by the strikers. Not a wheel is
turning between this point and Spokane.
The train from st. Paul to Winnipeg
passed all right going both ways. The
strikers attempted to stop the one going
south to Fargo at 4:3O p. M, but did
not succeed. No. Is freight arrived
on time from the south, but is still
in the yards not made up. Passenger
train 4, which goes east at $40 p. m.
was to have been made up
here. The strikers prevented the
coupling of the cars, and the engine
and mail coach were on the main track
all day headed east. T. E. Adams,
master mechanic of this division of the
Great Northern, attempted to pull a
train out himself. He made several at
tempts to couple the mail to the bag
gage coach. but was frustrated. Each
time the strikers pushed the passenger
cars on the side track. Engineers, fire.
men and conductors are willing to take
out trains if allowed ~ the strikers.
Public sympathy is with the strikers.

BRECKENRIDGE MUST PAY UP.

The Jury Awards Miss Pollard Fifteen
Thousand Damages.
WASHINGTON. April 14..-Jury rem
awards her SIS, 900 damages.
In his charge to the jury Judge Brad
ley spoke first of the pollution of the
case. He said it contained few interest
ing legal points, and that if the parties
had been obscure it would have at
tracted but little attention. But be-
cause one of the parties had been of
national prominence, and because, he
feared, of the character of the details,
it had attracted large and sometimes
a vulgar crowd. 1t was inaccurate to
say that the community at large was a
third party to the case. Except to see
that justice was done between the par
ties the world at large had no interest
in the case. Public opinion should not
weigh a feather weight, abstract prin-
ciples were not to be vindicated, nor
the country, the home and the family
Only Question of Contract.
1t was only "a question whether con-
tract to mary existed and whether if
broken there was an excuse for break
ing it. The verdict was not to vindi-
cate the character of either party. AL
though the judge said that the defendant,
quoting Massachusetts opinion, could
not be excused from failure to perform
a marriage contract by legal inability to
fulfill it, because his legal inability did
from his failure to marry her.
To sum it all up, if a contract was not
made, or if it was agreed to with the
understanding that it was not to be car.
ried out, the verdict should be for the
defendant. If contract had been made
and broken they were to find for the
plaintiff, awarding such damages as
they saw fit. Their verdict must be
formed upon the preponderance of evil
dence

STRIKE SPREADING.
GREAT NORTHERN TIED UP FROM
GRAND FORKS TO THE COAST.

Traffic Entirely Suspended, Hardly .
Wheel Turning or an Instrument Tick-
ing ON Two Thousand Miles of Lines.
The Cascade Division Involved-strske
, Complete ON West End, All Branches
of Service Participating.
SEATTLE, Wash, April 1.-THE
Great Northern railroad strike has ex-
tended over the Cascade division and
the coast lines and the whole system is
tied up from Grand Forks to Seattle and
Seattle to New Westminster. Hardly
q wheel is turning or telegraph wire
ticking over 1000 miles of line. The
strike was ordered with such secrecy
and suddenness that an hour before it
was to begin the officials had not sus-
picion that it was to happen. The or
der was received in this city about Z
D. NJ, but no information of it was al
lowed to get beyond the men interested.
When the time came to make up the
eastbound passenger train, the
Mail and Baggage Car
was set in front and not coupled to the
rest of the train. When orders were
given for the train to go out, the en-
gineer refused to take out more than
the mail car. Superintendent Copeland
said the whole train or nothing would
go out, and after waiting for nearly an
hour to give him an opportunity to re-
consider tho crew went home and the
officials followed suit. The strike is
complete on the west end and all
branches of the service are participant
ing. The Canadian Pacific officials, an
ticipating an extension Of the strike,
have made arrangements with the re-
ceivers of the Lake Shore for through
cars, both passenger and freight, to run
over the Lake Shore to and from this

 NEW YORK, March 31.-The sales of the profes- sional bull spectators were readily absorbed to- day by local and foreign buyers, as has been the case ever since Thursday. The markets early aspect gave so little encouragement to bear trad CTS that this contingent, too appeared as heavy buyers. The outcome was 6 market strong from the start. active in nearly all directions and clos ing with decided show of strength.
 The advance was by no means uniform; in fact, the irregularity was singuiarly marked. Indus trials a rule failed to advance. Sugar certif- cates declined materially. Yet even in this group National Cordage ran up two points; Illustrating chiefly the growing disposition to purchase low priced stocks, in which relatively small advance in actual quotations means a very heavy gain in per centage.
 The railway securities were the particular points of strength and here, again, the London specialties like St. Paul, Union Pacific, Kansas and Texas and Louisville, led the movement. Foreign brokers did, in fact, buy largely, and they agree that the larger share of today's and yesterdays purchases will be shipped abroad. In other stocks, though the tone was uniformly strong, advances were pretty much proportioned to the size of the outstanding short account. A sharp recovery in silver bullion parsed almost unnoticed, but the remarkable figures Of silver shipments to the east go far to explain it.

 March 31.-At the annual meeting of tho first ecclesiastical society held this week, R. W. Smith was elected member of the society's committee for three years. The committee now stands c. B. Smith, G. J. Merg, R. W. Smith. 8. B. Thorpe was continued clerk and 0. B. Smith treasurer. The committee on incorporation of the church and society reported such a move ment at present unadvisable, and were dis charged. The committee on "free seats" reported in favor of the plan on general principles, but doubted whether the time had arrived to adopt it here. The meet ing seemed unwilling to drop the matter and appointed . new committee to make . thorough canvass of the congregation and report next March. The sale of pews was very satisfsetory.
