FARGus FALLS, MINI, April 12.-In
the Uni,ad States court Grant Mason,

bstructing the mails during tho great
northern strike last April. The testl-
mony was brief and the jury found him
guilty. His conviction was followed by

the defendants agreed to plead guilty to
obstrucling the mails. The conspiracy
case was thcn stopped and Mason James

New York. april 1.-THE National
Provisioner. the organ Of tho msat and

morrow:
No moro absurd theory has been ad-
vanccd for some time than the recent
attempts which been made to make tho
consuming public OF this country be-
lieve that the shortage in cattle, now so
apparent everywhere, is due to any
other than natural causes. With a
wisdom, however, begottcn OF ignorance
and inability or the disinclination to
accurately investigate false and errone-
sus nows has been trumpeted in overy
state in tho union to such an extent
that tho greater portion OF the
people OF America arc under tho i'm
preston to-day that this great food
product is tied up in the vicious grasp
OF a monopoly. tits absurd aud unjust TO
couple the anne Of reputable business
houses with conditions for which thoy
are no way responsible. 1t would be
m absolute impossibi!ity for n combi-
nation OF mon, no matter what tho OK
tent Of their capital was, to corner tho
beef or cattle market Rnd tho money has
not yet been mintcd that can do it. A
little p~hilosophic reasoning and n
glance ovcr tho past history Of attempts
to corner meat products would readily
demonstrate to our fricnds OF tho daily
prosH how fallacious their arguments
arc in this particular instance.

New YoRK, April l2.-R. G. Dun &

which issues tomorrow, will say:
Progress toward better business con-

obstacles. In speculative aspects aud
in wholesale demand for goods the
week shows improvement. Money

clcs is tho auxioty OF operatives to Sc
cure better wage, even while many
manufacturing works arc running with
out profit and others at the risk OF loss.
In n number OF establishments better
wages have boon conceded, thus in
creasing the purchasing power OF the
people, but strikes have largely over
balanced settlements. several oil i'm

REPRESENTATIVE TAWNEY
Minnesota Favors a Conservative Revision
81 Z
of the Tariff,
90 I'll
He Thinks Revenue should BE Raised
by Import and Not Internal
Revenue Taxes.

Representative Tawney of Minnesota. one
oil the brightest of the young republicans of
the House, is in the city, and getting ready
for hard winters work in Congress Mr.
Tawncy takes great interest in the tariff, in
finances and, in fact, all of the big ques-
tons occupying the attention of Congress-
as well as being an iudsfaMgable worker in
behalf of his local interests. ,-it.
The sentiment of the republicans of my
state said Mr.. Tawney to a Star man to-
day, lis in favor of the conservative re-
vision of the tariff, upon straightout repub-
lican lines. We believe that the revenues
for carrying on the government should be
raised by tariff upon imports rather than
excessive taxation under the internal rev.
enue system. If. however. we cannot get
conservative revision, it might be advisable
to pursue the pop-gun bil' plan of accom-
plishing the purpose in part.
mere are number of articles upon the
dutiable list which we would like to see
graded higher, notable among them being
barley The duty upon barley. as fixed by
the last tariff bill. works serious injury to
the farmers of the west, by permitting the
Importation of Canadian and Russian grain
and bringing 1t into disastrous competition
with our own product. Just before l left
home farmer gave me an instance within
his own experience. In 1Sai he raised thirty
three bushels of barley to the acre, which he
sold for fifty cents bushel.
In 1898 he increased his yield to forty
five bushels per acre, but the price for which
he could sell the barley fell to twenty-three
cents bushel. So. that. although the pro-
ductivencss of his farm increased 80 per
cent. he lost s6.15 an acre over the previous
year.
My state Is essentially a sound money
state said Mr.. Tawney in reply to a ques-
ton. we believe in dollar worth one
hundred cents, and we have no traffic with
the free silver element in politics. 1t has
been asserted that Minnesota is tainted with
the idea of free trade, but that is not true
we don't want free trade in our state We
want reasonable and fair protection to
American industries and American farm
the competition of other countries and to
produce the revenue sufficient for the needs
of tie government"

Sudden Deaths of Two Wcll-knONn
PeOplc-Many Other Interest,"
ing Local Notes.

A. T. Crosby, Chas. A. L:eb and others
have contaminated a deal with the owners
of the property at the Virginia end of the
Chain bridge whereby they have become
possessors of the real estate lying on the
east side of the main road from the Poto-
mac river back to the Pimmet Run bridge,
and eXter ding on both sides of the sad
run, with the eastern side of the highway
as one boundary and Perch Rock as the
other.
The price paid was 5000, it is understood.
The purchase carries with it rights to the
water power of Pimmet run, and territory
embracing an apparently inexhaustible
quarry.
Located on the property is brick build
ing, which at present contains the ma
chinery, dynamos, etc, OF the POTOMAC
light and power plant. Preparations are
now beng made to remove this power ma
chinery to Georgetown, where superior IA
cilities for more extensive and economic
operation exist. The property sold has been
laid claim to in part by the representatives
of ex-senator Sabine, Col Cristy appearing
recently in their behalf.
The generally accepted owners, though,
say they can prove beyond shadow of
doubt their exclusive right to the property.
The land bought will permit an easy har-
Messing of the Little Falls power. and 1t is
understood that this was one of the prln-
cipal objects of the purchase. Crosby,
Lieb & Co. are doing considerable operat-
ing in this vicinity They are large owners
in the Tenleytown electric road, sole own
ers of the Potomac light and power plant,
have control of the big E. l.. Dent iron
plant on Water street, are looking to Little
Falls power, and are still operating.
