to Indiana for his health. About a
month ago he decided to go to San
Francisco and visit his Grand Army
comrades in that city. He reached
there on the 9th inst. While crossing
the mountains his train was delayed
and the captain contracted cold,
which developed into pneumonia. AT
the time of his death he was bein G
cared for by Col. j. j. Lyon, who
served with Capt. Stees in the same
company of the Sixth Minnesota dur
ing the war.
Capt. Stees was a single man. His
nearest relatives in ST. Paul are his
brother, John A. Stees, and two sis
ters, Mrs. c. E. Hunt and Mrs. William
j. Sloppy.
Capt. Stees was prominent in G.
A. r. circles. He was a past COM
mander of Acker post, a member Of
the Sons of the American Revolution,
a prime mover in the establishment of
the soldiers home and a founder CT
the Soldiers Rest. Shortly after the
war Capt. Stees was stationed in Cal
ifornia with the rank of major in the
regular army.
Maj. Newson, in his pen pictures Of
the pioneer settlers of ST. Paul, says:
Capt. Stees was born in Dauphin. Penn

store In st. Paul, and 1t was here that
Capt. Charles Stees first went to work
when he came. This was at Third and
Minnesota streets. Capt. Charles Stees
was the first undertaken in st. Paul,
and his first burial was the funeral at
Mendoza of the child of Mr.. and Mrs.
Franklin Steele, who were among the
earliest settlers on the reservation.
In spite of the comments of "croak-
ers," Capt Stees never altered in his
allegiance to St Paul, and one of his
most grateful "reminiscences of the early
day real estate market, was the pur-
chase of lot in 1851 for $3.50, which
paid all its taxes and assessments and
sold in 1881 for 1880, profit of dol
lar for every cent invested
Capt. Stees returned to Philadelphia
in 1853 and became jeweler, moved
to Raleigh. N. c., and stayed there
until secessionism grew too strong,
when he returned to the Quaker me-
trOpoliS. When Sumter was fired on
he enlisted and was major of Penn

When it was mustered out, he again
came to ST. Paul, and re-engaged in
the furniture business with his broth
ers,- but succumbed to the war spirit
again. and re-enliSted in the Ninth
Minnesota. On the uprising of Little
Crow, Gov. Ramsey consolidated the
ten fullest companies of the Ninth in
to the Sixth, and ais second lieutenant
of company G young Stees went to the
front. He remained with his regi-
ment until the close of the war, and
was ON two Indian expeditions under
Gen. Sibley. Then they went to Hell

island, Mobile bay. Spanish fort, and
firaly to the fall of. Mobile. After
Lees surrender, the regiment went to
Montgomery, Ala. and remained there
until August, when they were mus
tered out at Smelling. ...,.
Capt. Stees then spent twelve years
In California, returning to ST. Paul and
settling down.. a.
In his "pen pictures" Maj. Newson
says of the deceased:
He is a man of fine social quail
ties, of medium size, quick in his
movements, impulsive, ready to resent
wrong or a fancied injury, and yet
he is brave, generous and kindhearted.
His large experience of events of early
days in the history of our state and
his retentive memory enable me to

The second week of the G o b e. 9
popular voting contest closed last night
with a total vote of 1890 votes.
Nothing like it in popularity has been
known. as no contest has ever been
opened where so many or such desir-

contest. Voting contests have been
conducted where the prizes have been

about this value, but in this case four

1t is not surprising, therefore, that

poison, however, developed SO rapidly that
amputation was yesterday found to be i'm
possible, and the friends of the injured man
were informed that there was little hope for
his recovery. Mr.. Ryan has lived in St. Paul

DANGER IN SODA

Common soda is all right in its place and
indispensable in the kitchen and for cook
ing and washing purposes. but it was never
intended for medicine and people who use
it as such viii some day regret it.
We refer to the common use of soda to
relieve heartburn or sour stomach, a habit
which thousands of people practice almost
daily, and one which is fraught with dan

trouble gets worse and worse.
The soda acts as a mechanical irritant IN

The Hnrse Nlarl1ef.

In the month Of September there were
sold at the two auction sale stables 2,S06
horses and of this number S54 We're sold to
be exported to England, Scotland, Germany
and Denmark, there now being buyers here
for six different export markets. AS the
farmers have their work well out of the
way there has been very free offering of
the more common class of horses, and
prices have ranged low. Mr.. Blair, of the
firm of Blair & Baker state that the larger
demand for export is for a heavy draft
horse or a fine carriage driver, and this
class of horses bring good prices, some fine
drivers going above the $500 notch. At the
last two sales some very good steppers
sold from $50 to SIPS. To get above that
sum, the horse, Mr.. Blair says, must have
many good points. Plug horses sell low, as
the demand at this season of the year is
Slow. Since Jan. / there have been sold at
the two stables 26560 horses, and at the
stock yards ~, 1886 horses have been deliv-
cred, 6,9l4 more horses than were handled
for these sales stables in the corresponding
nine months Of 1896 There is now some
prospect of another large sales stable being
located near the stock yards. Negotiations
are pending looking TO such an increase in
the business, With three large sales stables
and auction sales three days of the week,
indianapolis as a horse market will take
another big move to the front.

REACHES THE MAXIMUM
THE LOADED-CAR MOVEMENT En-
CEEDS TWENTY THOUSAND CARS.
Waiting for Glover Leaf TO Come Into
Line-August Net Earnings of Sew
eraI Important Lines.

The train records show that in the week
ending Oct. 2 there were received and for
warded at Indianapolis @, 1857 cars, 20, 69S be-
ing loaded, an increase over the week end
ing Sept. % of 1,15S loaded cars, 444s more
than We're handled at Indianapolis in the
corresponding week Of 1896 and 2,171 more
than in the corresponding week of 1895. To
say that all lines are doing a good business
is no exaggeration. The loaded car move
ment over the Bee-line division of the Big
Four and over the Indianapolis division of
the Panhandle is now the largest in years,
both lines doing a very heavy east-bound
business. Shipments of grain have in
creased, and the shipments of live stock,
dressed meats and ceraline products are up
to the maximum. Shipments of flour and
provisions were a little off last week, and
so was west-bound business. For some
weeks past the loaded car movement east
and west-bound has been very near the
same The Vandalia last week brought in
1.215 against $40 loaded cars forwarded. The
Panhandle forwarded 1913 loaded cars,
against 949 brought in. On the Big Four,
over the Chicago and Cincinnati divisions,
as well as over the Bee-line, the east-bound
movement of loaded cars was considerably
in excess of the west bound. The Cincin-
natl, Hamilton & Dayton had a big week,
handling at Indianapolis loss cars, 913 be-
ing loaded. The Louisville division of the
Pennsylvania lines continues to do a heavy
business, handling at this point last week
35S more loaded cars than in the correspond
ing week of 1896 and 463 more than in the
corresponding week of 1895. 1t Will be no
ticed that when compared with previous
years all Indianapolis lines are doing very
satisfactory business. While there was last
week a decided increase in east-bound
through business, westward the tonnage
was some lighter in the higher class and
heavier in the lower class freights. Local
business is highly satisfactory, and was
during the entire month of September,
while October promises better results, as
with each week the local manufactures are
becoming buster. In miscellaneous freights
there has been a healthy increase with
each week. and the prospects for the pack
ing houses, the cerealine mills, the Touring
mills, the stock yards and canning estab-
lishmentS doing large fall business could
hardly be brighter. Below is given the car
movement for the week ending Oct. and
for the corresponding period of 1896 and
16Q5.
