his lariat, roped the struggling

his leg caught between a cart and
a stone and badly bruised. Ordi-
narily he would have been laid up
for two or three weeks, but says:
"After using one bottle of Cham

This liniment is also of great value
for rheumatism and lame back.

TO BE UNTRUE
A dispatch evidently sent out by the ILLINOIS, As
sociated Press and dated from Chicago, was printer
last evening In several Of the papers when use that
service 10 the effect that the three great mining
companies OF the Northwest-the Phlsbury-" ash-
burn Flour MIL Company Limited the Washburn-
Crosby Company and the Northwestern Consohdaten
Milling Company-had all entered upon war whch
promised to bring the price down TO runous inquire
as far as the mllers concerned. The dispatch
further said that the Pillsbury- Washburn concern
had announced cut Of 10 cents barrel in order 10
meet the reductions by its two competitors.
Rice QUinby Co., OF No l13 Produce Exchange
are the representatives OF the Pilsbury- Washburn
Company. and when asked by Tribune reporter
about the rumored of u cents barrel yesterday
denied any knowledge OF 1t and pronounced 1t as in
all probability fake" I've surely would have
been notified" said representative OF the firm. of
any such action on the part Of the company Long
ago the company announced It's intention to keep,
possible. the price OF flour at point where reason
able profit could be made II has always stood by
It's proposition. and we see no reason why II should
now announce a cut"
Grenvle Perrne agcn. for the Northwestern Con-
sohdated hrm. on the fourth floor of the Produce
Exchange. said he knew nothing about the rate
further than that the three had long been
at swords points and had been cutting into each
other foi six months or more. He said that even II
the report 1t could have no possible effect
on the Eastern market or any market other than
Chicago because the competition did not extend
beyond that city and the fight was entirely local.
