has reached the 100 feet mark and a
cross-cut is being run to cut the vein
the cross-cut has advanced 25 feet and
they expect to cut the vein in 20 feet
more. The company is extracting
enough ore from the old workings to

the Flat lode at the head of Yeast Pow

APPLICATION DENIED.
The National Fraternal Insurance
Union of Cincinnati Re-
fused a License.

Madison, Wis, Dec 4.-TSpeciall.-
The application for a license by the or
der Of the. National Fraternal union of
Cincinnati, o., for admission as Il mutual
beneficiary society," has been denied.
One reason for the refusal is that the
age limits, Is to 10, do not comply with
the law; second reason is that its name
is too similar to that of the order of the
National union, a fraternal beneficiary
organization already admitted. The
third and most important reason is that
IN the opinion of the commissioner an
organization applying for admission as
a mutual beneficiary society cannot issue
endowment, limited payment life poll
cles or give cash surrenders, paid up, or
extended insurance; that such features
are wholly foreign to objects and pur-
poses of assessment insurance; that if
such features were permitted there
must naturally follow reserve liability
to absolutely guarantee the fulhllment
of contract, and right here would come
an objection that an assessment COM
pany can issue only Il contract which is
flexible at one end or the other.
s In concluding his reasons for refusing
the application the Commissioners says:
1.-THE pathway of assessment endowment
insurance is so strewn with wrecks of
past experiments and have cost our PEG
pie SO many thousands of dollars, for
Which they have received no other re-
aurn that receivers report, that to per-
similar character would be adding in
suit TO injury"

ALLEGED MEAT COMBINE.
Suits Against West Superior Partie.
Come Up at GAINESVILLE.


GAINESVILLE, Wis, Dec Especial i
How much of an arrangement can be
made concerning the price of beef at
West Superior before it gets to be a con-
spiracy? is a question that the courts
will decide, and A. A. Jackson of this
city, a United States court commissioner,
yesterday afternoon heard evidence in a
case that raises the point in peculiar
way. Martin Santer has sued G. e..
barrow and Erick Bratt has sued the
Armour Packing company, the Swift
Packing company and the Cudahy Pack
ing company. .asss@s sae Msg
All these suits were begun in West
Superior. H. Isaacson, an important
witness, lives in this city, however. and
after him Attorney William Dwyer
came. He took him before Court Com
missioner jackson. Isaacson was ex-
amined regarding an alleged illegal COM
bine. of West Superior market men. 1t
is averred that the meat dealers and
Chicago packing houses agreed to keep
UP the price, of meat in West Superior.
No meat was to be sold by the packers
to retailers outside of the combine, it is
alleged, unless at higher prices.
The outsiders suspected this and took
as proof the fact that they always
seemed to be lifting the heavy end of the
log when it came to getting new GUS
toners. Charges of conspiracy were fl
nally made and the Santers and Bratt
suits followed. The cases are important
as similar conditions are said to exist
in five or six cities about the state.
