HELD ON SUSPICION.

Chief Yates returned this noon
from WinOna, bringing with him the
young man who was held there on
suspicion of being the party wanted
for breaking into Kruse Bros store.
He also brought back the trousers
which were found in the mans pos
session. The man gives the name of
Harry Linch, and states that he
found the trousers under freight car
in the @. & n. w. railroad yard at
Winona, and that within ten or fif-
teen minutes after picking them up
he was arrested. He says that he
was in Mankato about three weeks
ago.
There is no particular evidence
against Linch, and he will probably
be released tomorrow, unless there
are new developments. The trousers
are similar to those lost by Kruse Bros.
but there is no mark to indicate posi-
lively that they come from this store.

Senators Who snore.

No matter what is going on in the Senate,
says the News and Courier Washington cor
respondent, Senator Ransom of North Caro-
lima, always takes a siesta after his luncheon
every day. When he was appointed chairman
OF the committee on commerce he used to go
TO It's room and lie down on the lounge there.
but the place was too noisy for him People
were always coming. or If the door was locked
they would rattle at IL trying to get in The
room IS next to the elevator and strangers are
IN the habit of making it an inquiry office So
the senator had a corner partttioned on
which contains no furniture but a comfortable
leather lounge, and into this retreat he crawls
every day about o'clock, instructing his
clerk that he must not be disturbed for
any reason, and gets good hours sleep.
several OF the senators take daily maps on
the lounges in the cloak room. Generally
about or O'Clock in the afternoon they are
all occupied by sleeping statesmen. some OF
whom snore so loud that the doors have to be
closed that the rumble may not be heard in
the galleries. The champion snorer is Sen
ator Coke, Of Texas. He makes the windows
rattle when he is doing his best. but Mr.
Davis, of Minnesota, Is not far behind him
and when Mr.. Stewart, of Nevada. rolls over
on his back, as he sometimes does. the pages
creep in quietly to listen, for he sings a pc
culiar song in his sleep. Mr.. Bate, OF Ten
nessee, draws long. deep note, and his col
league, Mr.. Harris, has high tenor with a
funny rattle, When theyare both goingait at
their best speed on lounges side by side efhe
duet is worth hearing.

SUITS OVER CoTroLINE.
The Fairbank Company Claims In
frinEement of It's Trade Mark

frinEement of It's Trade Mark.
Macon. Ga, April 16-The N. K. Fair
bank Company filed a suit for damages
to-day, in the federal court here, against
w L. Henry, a dealer of this city, for
infringement of their trademark on
'cottoline"
The bill alleges that the defendant has
for some time been buying from western
pork packers food products similar to,
put inferior to coJtoline, and has been
selling such article as and for the Fair
bank Company's article at a price less by
cent or more a pound than
the genuine article; and that
the Fairbank Company has ex-
pended large sums in advertising
their food product, and that the defen-
dant is thus fraudently getting
the benefit of the rade they have built
up; that the N. K. Fairbank Company
are the originators of the new food
product; that designing to coin word to
signify its principal ingredient, cotton
seed oil, they coined the word 'cotto-
line" and applied for and had granted
the trademark which the defendant ln-
fringed.
The general counsel for the company is
visiting this section for the purpose of
filing suits against all infringers of the
trademark 'cOttoline," and this is the
first one of the series. Similar suits will
be brought at other points.

upbuilding of their farms, and are con tent
to trust to democracy for relief There is
also noticeable an increase in the returns

championed by the people. The scarcity
of money in circulation in the towns is
not noticeable in the rural districts, in
