Against the ManitoWoc
Banker.

Sheboygan, Wis, Sept. 22.-[Special.]
Circuit court convened here yesterday
afternoon. The prospects for long
term are not very good as the calendar
is light and there are not many cases
which will take much of the courts time
There are several cases in the criminal
calendar against L. G. Shove the Mani
towoc banker, but all these have been
continued over the term. These are of
the same character as the one tried re-
Gently in Oshkosh. but on different com
plants and by different complainants.
The cause of continuance is the fact that
the Oshkosh case is now before the Su-
preme court awaiting a decision, and
It would be useless to try the eases here
until that one is decided. The congested
condition of affairs in the Supreme court
will likely cause considerable delay be-
fore the result is known. The only inn
portant case will be the trial of Or. w.

old resident of this city, who is charged
with manslaughter. The case is the out

West Superior, Wis. Sept. 2G.-[Spe-
cial. 1.-THE hackers of Wisconsin inspec-
ton thoroughly intend that it shall stay;
at least such is the present outlook. The
members of the board of trade have met
and the question of finances being raised,
those present subscribed to guarantee
fund Of $4,000 which will be used if nee
assary in the payment of the salaries of
the Wisconsin inspectors and weighers.
The Daisy Milling company has sent its
wheat buyer, George SALISBURY, to Sand
stone, Mimi, to secure there what wheat
is necessary to that mill for milling
purposes.
Whether or not the mills have a right
to employ Minnesota inspectors and
weighmasters in their plants is a ques-
ton, but until the board of trade can
give them wheat enough for themselves
there will probably be no objections
raised, as it is not thought to be policy
to interfere with the running of Superior
