in 1t.
New Rates Will Be About the
Same as Before Great
Northern Cuts.

ST. PAUL, Sept. ga considerable
increase in freight rates to Montana and
Western territory has been ordered to
go into effect. TThis grows out of the
conference held in this city few weeks
ago.
1t was announced that important
changes will be made in the freight tar
ifs of the Northern Pacific, Great North
ern and Union Pacific reaching Mon
tana territory and west, to take effect
Sept ?. During the past two years
the tariffs to Montana and terri
tory west thereof have been on a
very low basis, the rates to this terri
tory being somewhat affected by the
very low rates made to Pacific coast ter
minals, oy reason of the strong compe-
tition of the water lines between the
Atlantic Seaboard and the Pacific coast
The new rates will restore the condi-
tions to about the normal basis in effect
before rhe reductions made about the
time the Great Northern line was com
pleted to the coast III 1892.

dicted by the United States grand jury
in connection with the illicit still found
at Ouellette's house, 605 Taylor street,
requested permission to change their
pleas and were taken again before Judge

side that separate bill had been re-
turned against Ouellette accusing him
of having neglected to register a still

guilty under this separate indictment
and was sentenced to serve so days IN
the county Jail and pay fine of $500.
Paquette, who pleaded guilty under
the joint indictment, was sentenced to
serve six months in Jail and pay fine of
$1,000. Both men have large families,
and when they learned the punishment
imposed upon them they We're com
