CLEARING CERTIFICATES.

NEW YORK, Aug. 22-It is announc-
ed that the loan committee of the clear
ing house association, will meet on
Monday and probably issue some clear
ing house certificates.
j. Edward Simmons, president Of the
Fourth National bank, is quoted as
saying that out Of the political situa-
ton there has arisen a good deal of
apprehension on the part of the general
public, and business has been brought
to condition of almost utter stagna-
ton. mills" Mr.. Simmons added.
''are being closed all over the country,
or else put on half time There has
been little or no demand fer goods,
and a very restricted sale of CONNER
cia1 paper, and as a result the strain
upon the merchants Is becoming in
tense, and the resulting pressure upon
the banks for discount Is more severe.
This coming at a time when the de-
mand for money for crop moving pur-
poses Is active as usual, at this season
of the year, it is only right that the
banks of New York should extend such
accommodations to their out of town
customers as well as the merchants,
as will enable the crops to move freely
to the seaboard It will only be with
the view Of avoiding seriouse disaster
that clearing house loan certificates
will be issued should the emergency
be considered sufficient In the opinion
Of the committee to warrant such ac-
ton"

TURNING HINES DOWN.
Directors OF the Farmers Railroad
Acting Independently.

WEST SUPERIOR, Wis, Aug. a.
The difference Of opinion which has
practically disrupted the affairs Of the
Duluth 81 North Dakota railroad and
Which caused President d. w. Hines
to severely roast" the entire board
OF directors through his newspaper, the
FARMERS Railroad, has aroused the ire
OF the members of the board to such
an extent that the committee upon
whom most Of the wrath Of the
preacher railroad-builder falls, have is
sued manifesto to the stockholders
OF the company and any others who are
interested. The document will be wide
~ circulated throughout the Northwest
and Is signed by w. B. kellogg, the
roads attorney Of this city; A. Grinde-
land, OF Warren, Mimi, and by o. M
Omlie, of Grafton, North Dakota. This
is the boards committee who were ap-
pointed to carry out the directors views
Ill the raising of 100000 in cash to COM
plete the line after President Hines
had been turned down at the last meet
ing. The statement purports to be a
calm and dispassionate statement of
the affair and Is for the purpose of
disabusing the minds Of the stockhold-
erS that the last meeting Of the direc-
tors was characterized by fault-find-
ing and abuse.
The directors. with the exception of
Hines, claim to be of one opinion as to
the policy to be carried out There
has always been a decided difference
OF opinion as to the method by which
the work should be carried on, the cir
cular states. The president has siren
ucusly maintained that the farmers
could do the grading through the 100
miles of timber while others believed
that the ouly practical way was to sell
stock, get municipal aid and place suf-
ficient to enable the road to let a con-
tract for that portion Of the road: and
that when the prairie was reached the
farmers could grade a very large por-
ton of the roadbed. The directors also
believed that it would be easier to get
subscribers for stock on a basis large
enough to guarantee the road than to
get few dollars here and there on a
proposition which did not appeal to
the good business judgment of the peo-
pie. They recognize the fact that now
is not the most favorable time to work
out the railroad scheme in view of the
poor crops and general financial de-
preston. The directors hope for a bet
ter feeling after the election but other
than that they do not express much
encouragement for the line. Neverthe-

BOTH COMPANIES HURT.
Match and Biscuit Trusts Involved
in the Moore Failure.

CHICAGO, Aug. 22.-The Diamond
Match company and the New York
Biscuit company were both involved in
the failure of the Moore Bros. The
statement is now made public that
the Diamond Match company pur-
chased on margin Of $50 a share,
$4,000 shares of it's own capital stock.
The New York Biscuit company has
purchased 5000 shares of its capital
stock, which was bought at prices
ranging from 80 to par. The Diamond
Match company WILL it is said, seek
to evade responsibility on it's purchases
of match stock and will deny liabilities
larger than the $500, 900 it has used from
it's surplus as margin. If the present
intention of people interested in the
Diamond Match company are carried
out, that company will lose absolutely
100000 as result of the speculative
deal in this stock. carried on by the
Moore Bros. AS to the New York
Biscuit company, that corporation will
fare much better as a result of it's be-
ing entangled in the deal 1t now holds
in it's treasury the 100000 worth of
STOCK counted at q par value. The
price at which this stock was bought
IS not known, but it is supposed to have
been at prices averaging more than
90, or upwards Of $270, 900. It is said
the purchase of stock by the New York
Biscuit company was in carrying out
an agreement made at the time of the
purchase of the Mason bakery in Baltf-
more, and the two smaller bakeries
located in the same city. 1t is said
these bakeries were to be paid for in
the capital stock of the company and
that the stock purchased by the New
York Biscuit company will be used for
this purpose.

RAN IN A oURBsToNE ORATOR.
Courts Will Monday Decide Whethe
Speech Is Free or Not.


Speech Is Free or Not.
An arrest was made yesterday after
noon which will be made a test case
in the municipal court Monday as to
whether curbStOne orators are to be
allowed to discuss political issues and
collect about them hundreds of peo-
pie obstructing the sidewalk and in
terfering with traffic. 1t is the direct
outcome of the decision delivered the
past week by Judge Cox, of the munich
pal court of Indianapolis, in which
he rebuked the police for interfering
with free discussion and allowed a
prisoner liberty.
The incident Of yesterday occurred
on Newspaper Row, near Nicoilet ave-
nue.. Scores of people were standing
about awaiting the base ball scores
when discussion ensued between two
men. The crowd was divided in SEN
timent and gathered about cheering
their respective champions. John s..
Phelps, travelling man who halls
from Chicago, was strenuously advo-
eating the sound money cause, and his
tones became animated. The sidewalk
was blockaded with people.
Considerable complaint has reached
police headquarters of late from
Fourth street merchants regarding the
nuisance and Patrolman John Young
was several days ago detailed to keep
the streets open. He saw the trouble
yesterday and pushing through the
crowd" respectfully asked the disput-
ants to move along. Phelps objected.
He cited the decision of the Indianap-
oils judge and stated that one of the
privileges of this country was freedom
OF speech. The officer warned him,
but 1t fell on unheeding ears There
was but the alternative and Phelps
was taken to the station With a
spirit of magnanimity his disputant
and several others refused to allow
him to be locked up and he was al
lowed his liberty on bail.
The officer was acting under instruc-
lions from his superior and was also
guided by the precedent of the super
lntendent of police, who dispersed a
CROWD personally few days ago. The
Interpretation which Judge Holt will
put upon the ordinance Monday will
be awaited with interest.

less the company has kept within its

assets.
In conclusion the committee state
that they regret that mere difference
or opinion has forced the conditions
upon them, but they accept the stu
alton and say they will go ahead with
out Hines valuable aid They assume
that the people want a railroad AT
least 200 miles long, and not a spur Of
twenty-five miles ending in the woods.
and think it easier to raise the amount
OF $5OO,0OO on a complete scheme than
an insignificant amount which will do
nobody any good and in which nobody
mas any confidence. The committee.
IN outlining their plan and asking for
support from the farmers, state that it
is their intention to get municipal aid
from cerain counties of Minnesota: to
take subscriptions conditional of the
entire amount Of 100000 being real
lzed and to place bonds sufficient TO
rail- and equip the road When this
scheme natures the subscriptions are
to become due and be collected
through the local banks of the North
west, and none of the money will be
used until by it's use an actual rail-
road will be guaranteed
The circular is but the forerunner
OF others, as the committee promise
that the stockholders will be kept
posted from time to time as things de-
velop, and until the Farmers Rail
road" changes it's policy Of opposition
they say it cannot be considered as
representing the views Of the com
pany. The row over the company's
disagreement is attracting considera-
Die attention and the outcome is one
OF uncertainty, except that the road
will be retarded.

married Pryor without having been
divorced. Mrs. Pryor came to Mime
apolis to straighten out the case. Her
story was that during her residence
in Minneapolis some years ago she car
ried on mild Irritation with Wheeler,
who, In spite of the fact that he was a
married man. became madly infatuated
with her. In jest she wrote some letters
to him addressing him as her husband,
and when she married mcconnell Bluffs,
Wheeler sent these letters to do what
he could to stop the union. Mrs. Pryor
claimed that she received from Wheeler
a written retraction concerning her al
legged previous marriage.
The publicity given the case through
this episode seems to have precipitated
the action for divorce on the part of
the real Mrs. Wheeler.

AMES' BAND WAGON.
1t Parades the Mill City on an EIec-
tiOneerfng Tour.

few of Dr. Ames' supporters and a drum
corps boarded band wagon last evening and
went out to do the town. The first stopping
place was at Washington and Twentieth ave
nue. North. There several speeches were
made by DR.. Ames. H. s. Seed and j. r.
Jenkins. After jollying up the crowd and
telling them what good governor the doctor
would make, the wagon went down to Ply
mouth avenue and repeated the dose there.
The final stopping place was Washington and
Hennepin. and the candidacy of the doctor
was whooped up in great style. The drum
corps got loose while Ames was speaking and
drowned him out. The crowd laughed of
course, and the doctor got excited. However
nothing happened, and when the wagon
turned up the avenue on it's way home the
crowd adjourned to the bottling works and
took test vote on who was the choice of
the crowd for governor. Ames got seventy
two votes and Donnelly two.
