Minneapolis Lumbcrman: The
middle Of June finds the white pine
trade somewhat restricted in VOL
ume. The past week, however, has
witnessed a slight Improvement
in the movement Of northern lum-
her from number Of the leading
distributing points, which is indica-
tive of little better trade. The
movement is still small and behind
that OF the past two or three years,
but there are no signs of Il decline in
the present volume Of demand, which
is slightly encouraging. Probably
during the last part Ut July and
early in August there will be fall
ing off in the demand, but 1t is more
thin likely to be made up for In the
movement Of building material later
in the season. Everything points to
Il gro wing fall requirement for lum-
her to GO out into the northwestern
regions that are being blessed with
more than Il bOuntiful crop this
season.

years of age and without relatives in
this country. His home Is in Dae-

been drinking excessively. Yes'er-
day he went to visit a family named
Stevens in Stewartville, and while
there entered the clubhouse and made
a desperate attempt at suicide He
first sought to destroy himself by
strangulatiop, using his suspenders,
but failing in this. he thrust the
blade of his pocketknife into his
throat. He inflicted a wound three
inches long and cutting into the
wiudpipe. He opened some Of the
smaller arteries which bled copiously,
and when a member of the family
discovered him he presented sick
ening spectacle. He was apparently
lifeless and was carried into the barn
where a blanket was placed over him
and the coroner notified. Coroner
Halves went up, and to his surprise
found the man rtill alive. Dr.. kerns
was summoned and he stitched uE
the wound. and the man was brought
to st. Anthony's hospital. Tn,
chances are that he will die.

His face bore evidence of great intel

Trouble In . Restaurant Results Seriously
for Young .ociety swell.

for a Young society swell.
Three young Davenport swells
sauntered into Rock Island
restaurant early, last evening
and after sizing up the surroundings
with somewhat critical air swung
themselves onto stools aud ordered
something to eat. 1t was evident
that they had been tritling with slim
ulants-at least their actions would
lead one to believe such was the
case.
They finally got through. In set
Ting they attempted to BAN boozle
the proprietor He argued the
question with them and they finally
produced the necessary amount. 1t
was apparent that they we're in quest
of trouble aud commenced abusing
the restaurateur. He expostulated
with them until his patience became
worn and then he eJec,ed them
bodily from the eating establish
ment. The bloods held hastv con-
sultation on the sidewalk outside.
Then the door flew open aud in
rushed the trio. One fellow brushed
mp to the counter and landed his
fist on the proprietor's face.
The restaurateur secured club
and went after his assai,ant. There
was thudding sound. One of the
swells had received a stunning blow
across the head from which the blood
began to flow. The young man had
a bad cash nut in his head His
two comPanions took hold of him
and haste ned way. And that ended
it. There have been no arrests.

Old Suit Settled.

Judge Grosscup's decision in the
Brush Electric company, of Cleve-
land. against the Rock Island Coun-
ty Brush Electric Light company case
has been received by Sweeney &
Walker. who represented the stock
holders OF the Rock Island company
and Peter Fries and the Rock Island
National bank, aud is n victory for
the latter. The suit was commenced
in 1892 in the federal court at Peo-
ria with view to setting aside the
trust deed given on the Rock Island
company's property in order to Sc
cure the $4,000 bonds issued in
1887. The money realized from the
bond sale was used in purchasing
the First avenue property, against
which the Cleveland company had
obtained judgement for $40 000 after
the sale OF the bonds, which were
bought by Peter Fries and the Rock
Island National bank. both of whom
would have been out the entire
amount of their investment had the
Cleveland company been successful
in the case. A cross bill to the
Cleveland company's creditors bill
was filed. and on this Judge Gross
cup has decided that the Rock Island
people are in the right. Since the
proceedings were began the Rock
Island electric plant has been sold
and the $4,000 realized therefrom
and held in trust by T. j. Robinson
goes to Peter Fries and the Rock ISL
and National bank as buyers of the
bonds according to the decision.

THE ICE A PUZZLE.
Its Condition About the Trestle
Causing Apprehension.
BUT COLD WEATHER Is WELCOMED

Many Proble0s ~ co How to Dispose Of
the Frixid Substance II is Continues to
Clog Above the Bridge River Engineer
appealed to.
The condition Of the ice above the
trestle has again become . perplex-
ing question to those in charge Of the
construction of the Rock Island
bridges. The temporary structure.
as has been stated, will sustain all
the weight that may be placed upon
it in the way of trains passing to and
fro, but whether it will be capable of
resisting the capers of the ice is the
question that is causing annoyance
now. Saturday representatives Of
the Rock Island road became SO ap-
prehensive that they consulted with
the river engineers as to the feasibil-
ity of getting a snag boat to crush
up the ice, but this was not
found to be possible, as the ice would
break the wheels of any boat which
would go into it. If there was tug
boat moved by propellers to be had
it might be Of advantageous utility,
but no ordinary Mississippi boat
would be OF service in removing the
obstacle. even il it could be gotten to
the scene, and this is Of course i'm
possible now. The use Of dynamite
may be resorted to in the event OF an
emergency, but is deemed now as inn
practicable unless as a last resort. 1t
has been suggested that salt would
have a good effect in melting the ice
If properly spread over it. but it
would take a tremendous amount OF
it to be of any use. The cold snap
of the past two nights has frightened
up the ice and removed for time
the dread of a breakup, but it will
make the mass all the more solid
when il does move, and while there
are no fears as to plenty of warning
in case of breakup, the anxiety is
for the trestle. which is an expensive
piece Of work and more particularly
the blow the opening of the gar
would be to the general traffic of the
Rock Island road.
