Aug. 4 at Portland, Or, for lands in
Oregon, as has been set forth in the
published DEGREES. 1t is only conjec-
ture at this time what turn affairs in
connection with this sale may take
place. AS has been noted before in
these columns, a suit is now pending
before J. D. Smith, commissioner of the
United States circuit court, for the
Wisconsin district; in which Morton S.
Patton, E. S. Christian and H. o. Ar
mour seek to set aside the decree Of
foreclosure and enjoin sale of same,
claiming to be a general creditor of the
Northern Pacific Railway company to
the extent of between $50O0,O0O and
$4,000, 600.
Their claim is that in the reorganiza-
tioE scheme the stockholders of the
Northern Pacific Railroad company are
allowed to participate, and that this is
unfair to- the general creditors Of the
Northern Pacific Railroad company
who, they claim, should be allowed to
come in ahead of the stockholders, and
as holders of bonds of the Seattle,
Lake Shore & Eastern railway, the
payment Of which, principal andsinter-
est, was guaranteed by the Northern
Pacific Railway company.

THISTLE AGENT FAILS.
Even the Bicycle Business Is Not ca
Mint.

Almost Immediately following the fill
ing in the district court yesterday
morning of a deed Of assignment on
the part of G. S. Neutson, doing bust
ness as the Thistle Cycle company. to
James A. Burrichter was also filed
suit against G. S. Neutson, doing bust
ness as the Thistle Cycle company, by
the Meacham Arms company to recover
$3.50 for goods sold and delivered
and garnishing the Merchants National
bank, of this city.
Mr.. Neutson, who has been the only
local agent for the Thistle bicycle since
that machine was put on the market.
was asked concerning his assignment,
and stated that the Fulton Machine
company, of Chicago, which manufact-
ures the Thistle wheel had nothing to
do with his action. According to his
statement the Meacbam Arms com
pany, of ST. Louis, was the maker of
cheaper wheel which he had handled
and they had demanded payment be-
fore their entire account was due, not
withstanding an agreement of a differ
ent nature with their agent
Recently a number of Chicago bicycle
manufactures have been forced to the
wall, and, in the ensuing panic, it is
claimed the runner gained czedence that
the Fulton company would also be fore
ed to assign. This fact, Mr.. Neutson be-
lieved was the reason why some of his
creditors had been pushing their claims
and had made his assignment neces-
sary. He thought his liabilities would
probably reach $4,000, while his assets,
exclusive Of the fixtures in his store,
which he had put in at cost of 81, 600,
would amount to about $4,000
Concerning the stock which he has on
hand Mr.. Neutson stated that some of
the wheels belonged to the factories,
others to the agent in Minneapolis, and
still others to himself

not very bad, but just enough to pro-

BIG PURSES HUNG UP,
Effort to Get Some Great Races for
the Fair.

The committee on races and attrac-
tons of the state fair board Of man
ayers, was in session yesterday after
noon at Hotel Ryan, st. Paul. The
committee decided upon making the
races an unusually strong feature Of
the fair this year, owing to the presence
of so many visitors. President Weaver
was authorized to go to Detroit next
week and offer a good sized purse to
secure the great racers Joe Patchen,
John r. Gentry, Robert ]. and Badge.
He will endeavor to get all four If it is
possible, but if this deal cannot be
carried out he is to arrange to get
Patchen and some competitor that will
force him to do his best 1t was de-
cided also to add a 2:08 pacing race for
which a thousand dollars will be
offered, and either a pacing race for
e-year-olds or trotting race for
four-year olds, for which be q added
This will make an event Of great In
terest also, as it is offered With the
knowledge that it will attract some
very fast horses. The committee also
decided to add either a pacing race for
three-year Olds or q trotting race for
4-year olds. These three races will fill
the vacancy in the racing programme
and secure a great card for each of the
four days. 1t should be remembered
tnat In the races this year all races
end with the third heat, every heat to
be race, and the winner to receive
what he Is entitled to regardless of
what may subsequently occur to him.
This plan is calculated to do away
with the fault Of prolonging races be-
yond the point of interest, and will en-
able the programme to be put on with
very little of the vexatious delays
that mar so many racing meetings.
The committee also decided to secure
fine collection of Indians, and to
have them give their war dances, races
games Of la crosse, bow and arrow
shooting contests, etc. They are to live
in a genuine Indian village. Arrange
ments for transporting the people to
the grounds from st. Paul and Minne-
apolis shall be made in view Of the
large attendance anticipated. The street
railway company will put in loop on
the grounds which will do away with
the delays incident to the switching Of
cars. The railroads are also to run
convenient trains.
Sid Black, the trick cyclist, has been
secured to give exhibitions daily The
question of music was not decided up
on further than that a band of nation
al reputation, If possible, will be Sc
cured. The Northern Pacific railroad
gives notice that it will make a bigger
display than ever before, and was
granted additional space.

animation by Chief Schweitzer, and the
result Of this was that yesterday after
noon Mr.. Gallagher visited Minneapolis
and with the assistance of Detectives
Doyle, Howard and Stavlo, fiat No. 6
on the third floor of 1923 Washington
avenue south, was raided. Leonard O.
Particle and his wife, at the time the
officers arrived. were busily engaged In
silver plating and polishing a batch of
$50 of the counterfeit coins. Munroe
according to the statements Of Mr.. CAL
lgher made the coins, but not being a
practical mechanic at the plating bust
ness, turned the result Of his work over
to the Particles who put on the finish
ing touches. Among the effects found in
Munroe's apartments was a complete
plating outfit but he evidently found
he was not an expert in this branch and
let the work out.
Munroe, who Is forty-six years old.
has criminal record, but has never
figured in the counterfeiting line be-
tore. He has fine appearance wearing
long beard and muStache, and has
the appearance Of a student rather
than a criminal. He was sent to the
penitentiary from Minneapolis for the
robbery of Lucas Bros store and was
discharged in February last Chief
SchweitZer says that Munroe has been
April last, and while he has been re-
sponsible for deal of the bogus coin
which has been floating about the twin
cities, it has only been a week that the
output Of the coin has been large. The
police estimate that about $500 worth
of the bad dollars have been put in
circulation. Munroe would not talk,
saying that he did not care to put his
head any further in the moose than he
could help.
Particle, arrested in Minneapolis, al
so has criminal record, having been
sentenced from ST. Paul about eight
years ago to the states prison for forg-
cry. He was convicted of being con-
cerned in a real estate forgery case in
which a number of persons were swind-
led by means of forged deeds and
worthless property.
Detective Gallagher Of the secret SER
vice says the capture was clever one
and reflects great credit on the detec
tive department. The prisoners will be
arraigned before United States Com
missioner McCafferty on Monday, and
held to await the action of the grand
jury.
Oscar West, who keeps a saloon on
East Seventh street, takes exception
to the statement published in an even
ing paper connecting him and his
saloon with Parker and Munroe. West
says he did not lend Parker any
money. that neither Parker nor Mon
roe were in his saloon Friday night. He
claims that Detective Werrick is de-
sirous of giving him the worst of it
and for that reason made up the story
about Parker and Monroe visiting his
saloon just before the latter was ar
rested.
It is understood that Parker will be
allowed to turn states evidence and
for the assistance he gave the officers
in capturing the other members of the
gang will be given the best of 1t.
