time only when the Twin City Packing
company also came to the Minnesota
Transfer and shortly afterward went
out of business. In the meantime Mr..
Van Hoven went back to New Brigh-
ton, occupying house No. / until Dec
~, when he moved to house No. 2.
where he is now employing thirty-four
men and has capacity of 100 cattle,
100 sheep and $50 hogs day.
There are besides these two houses,
three smaller slaughter houses, now
not occupied, but which will be in de-
mand the moment the large estab-
hshment gets to running. Besides,
there are three rendering establish
ments, the Twin City Rendering COM
pany, controlled by James Goodnow,
the Twin City Hide and Tallow COM
pany, controlled by James Mcmillan &
Co, and another house run by Majerus
Bros. Each of these employs a num-
Der of men, perhaps 80 or 40 in all. The
Schufeldt concern will establish it's
main offices at New Brighton, and will
have an office force of % to 80 persons
at work at once. The new establish
ment, when ready, will employ all the
way from 300 to 400 men.
The question whether the Minnesota
Transfer company will buy out the belt

Feb. 2, when a meeting Of the stock
holders of the Transfer company will
be held in st. Paul to hear report of

sALEsLADIEs HAVE A sLEIGHRIDE.
Enjoyable Event Planned by S. e.
OiSOn's Clerks.

At half after last evening three large
open busseS stood at the First avenue en-
trance OF the S. E. Olson building, and at
each stood four horses shaking the bells
which hung from their collars. The sleighs
were plentifully supplied with fur robes and
patiently. Presently the storm doors opened
and troop OF young people, to whose num-
bers had been added groups of two, three
and four during the last half-hour, came out
with merry shouts of laughter, and there
hustle of preparation, of tucking beneath
the heavy coverings, of slowing away in
comfortable corners, of adjusting favorable
positions. The horses tangled their bells
vigorously, the drivers cracked their whips,
and with gleeful cry, the first bus moved
away, then the second and the third and the
party was off. The popularity of the young
women in Olson's was demonstrated in the
number OF their invitations for their sleigh
ride which met with acceptance In the
sleighs were accommodated $50 persons, with
cheStra was aboard, and with Rcbbinsdale
hall for destination, the party made quick
progress through the snowy streets. Ar
rived at the end of the journey, the party
made itself at home in the well-lighted build
ing, where an abundant supper was spread
for hungry appetites. There was dancing
during the evening and along toward mid

The Beet Sugar Industry.

To the Editor of the Globe
The following extract from an article in
the London Times Of Dec. A. 1896 may be
OF interest to your readers, especially to
those who maintain that Germany and France
nave made great financial success Of the
beet sugar industry
'The total production of beet sugar for
1894 was estimated in round numbers at 5000.
600 tons, at cost Of f9 ton The price
realized for beet sugar was f8 Is shillingS
ton, representing what would under ordi-
nary conditions have been a total loss to
the beet sugar industry Of Il, 750 600. But
the annual sum paid in bourties by the
foreign governments under whose protection
the beet sugar industry is fostered amounted
for that year to f4.290.O00. If the figures are
correct, the beet sugar industry, working at
commercial loss, received from the tax
payers Of the countries in which It IS To-
Gated a sum which represented the very
respectable profit of 900. The bounty
being paid at so much a ton, the beet sugar
grower has every Indictment to continue to
produce as long as what may be termed bis
political gain outbalances his commercial loss.
Under such conditions Of competition the
West Indian planter may be pardoned If he
has his moments of something approaching
TO despair. His hope would have been that
an unrestricted demand might keep pace with
the artifcially increased supply and that thus
prices would in due course recover their
balance. Here, again. the continental system
is against him. H Great Britain wilerE there
are no duties, the consumption per heal Of
the population reaches Is pounds. In France,
where there is e duty of f24 a ton consuniT,-
ton falls to IS pounds per head of the pop
ulation. In Germany it is 26 hounds head:
in Austria it is II pounds. Thus, while the
production is, on the one hand stimulated
by bounties. consumption is on the other
hand, restricted by duties. Supply is arti-
icially increased. demand is artificiaIly d.
ministed, and the interference with economic
law is complete"
The next paragraph from the same author
!ty on the cost Of bounties to taxpayers may
be worth quoting:
''The situation as 1t is offers certain ele-
ments OF hope. In the first place, the bur
den of the bounties on the taxpayers of the
continent becoming every year more weighty
tends by that very fact to bring about its
own cure. At the present rates of bounty
a crop such as that of last year involves an
annual cost in round numbers Of almost
f5.0O0,00O to the bounty-giving governments
Every further fall in price increases the
burden, and decrease Of fl per ton in the
market price would mean. at present rates
of production. a further charge of f5 600 Gl5
The most patient taxpayers revolt when
such charges for the benefit Of one industry
are piled tor indiscriminatelv upon their
budget. and there are signs that the bounty
system Of continental nations cannot last
forever" r

M'KINLEY AT HOME.
Senator Sherman Expected to Ar
rive in a Few Days

CANTON, O., Jan. 11.-President-
elect Mckinley and wife returned to
Canton at 1870 this afternoon. They
were driven to their home for lunch
and will probably not leave Canton I'M
til they take their departure for Wash
ington, about March l.
Maj and Mrs. Mckinley left Cleve-
land for Canton at II 80 this morning
The distinguished visitors were driven,
in company with Mr.. and Mrs Myron
T. Herrick, to the Cleveland Canton &
Southern railway station. No unusual
crowd was present, and apparently
very few Of these around were aware
that the president elect was at the
station. The hOmeward journey was
made in the private car of Gen. Supt
Canniff, Of the Lake Shore & Michigan
Central railway, which was attached
to the regular 11:15 train for Canton,
over the G. G. & S. road.
1t could not be learned today just
when the expected visit of Senator
Sherman to Canton will take place,
although it is known that it will be
during the present week, and possibly
within the next two or three days.
1t is acknowledged by those who are
very near to the president-elect, that
much depends ON this conference So
far as the cabinet is concerned, and
the meeting is in consequence looked
forward to with much interest in politi-
cal circles

CANAL COMPANY ACTS.
Pier Leased in New York by the
MilIers' Organization.

NEW YORK, Jan. 11.-Erastus Wman,
representing the Consolidated Canal and Lake
company, obtained q lease from the board Of
docks at a special meeting held today. Mr.
Wiman explained that his company expected
to bring into New York annually Zoo, 600
barrels Of -four via the Erie canal. To do
this it would be necessary for the company
to have dockage and storage. Mr.. Wiman
finally secured the lease of the pier at the
canal basin at the foot OF West Fifty fourth
street at a rental of $1,000 annually for ten
years. The company proposes to put up a
$500, 600 shed over the pier. The company's
request for $50 feet of dockage at Sherman
inlet, opposite Morris dock and near Fort
st. George. will be considered Thursday
The Mail and Express says: The leasing
Of this pier is a great blow at the railroads
running into the metropolis and it's vicinity
The railroads have for some years monopo-
lized the flour carrying business from the
great lakes, not only for the uses of the
three big cities, but for the export trade as
well. The new company accepts the lease OF
the pier with the proviso that If within five
years it does not handle annually 1000 600
barrels. or 100, 600 tons Of -four, the piers and
shed are to revert to the city. The grant
ing of the lease Of the pier is great move
ment in the direction of improved canal trade
and canal boat men were iubilant when they
learned the news. In the matter Of export
trade alone it will be a hard blow on Phila-
delphia, Baltimore and Newport News.

Lavigne had all the best of the bout

first round. Before they had SPARED
one minute, Lavigne tented with his
right and as Zeigler attempted to duck,
the Kid brought his left around with
terrific force, landing squarely on
Zeigler's chin. In the second round
Lavigne landed almost at will, Zeigler
being apparently content to stay out
the six rounds. The third, fourth and
fifth were but a repetition of the
second, Lavigne doing all the lead
ing and Zeigler countering occasional
ly. In the closing round Zeigler was
made pretty groggy by two or three
stiff punches, but he managed to last
through the round. Zeigler weighed
probably fifteen pounds more than
Lavigne and was out of condition as
compared with the kid.
