SOME MINNEAPOLIS YARNS
ROADS WANTS TO CARRY GRAIN,
And Is Doing 1t AS Fast AS 1t Can
Get the Cars to the
Crop.

A Minneapolis paper last night cor
tanned a story in effect that there was
a general complaint from along the
line of the Great Northern road, owing
to the inability of the farmers to Sc
cure enough cars in which to ship thelr
wheat to market. The story set forth
that the road refuses to furnish cars
thereby injuring not only the growers
of wheat, but the elevator men along
the road, and that, unless something
is done to cure the present evil, prices
on the line will have to be cut to IN
sure the latter against loss.
1t is stated in the article that, owing
to the high price of futures, there is no
carving charges for the elevator COM
panies, and they are said to be unable
to protect their cash purchases by
hedges on futures as in the past.
The article was shown General Traf-
fic Manager Clarke, of the Great North
ern, last night and he characterized
the whole story as one without the
slightest foundation In fact.
THE contention that the G1e North
ern is guilty of any such bad judg-
ment as to refuse to- furnish cars or
even be Indifferent to the interests or
it's patrons is too absurd to be serious
ly considered. All the cars available
are being used in the service today, in
GLIDING $50 of the 700 new 60O0O-pOund
capacity box cars recently ordered,
and this afternoon the report showed
that not less than 500 carloads of
! wheat were taken over our road into
the Duluth terminal. Every effort is
being made to keep up with the de-
mand for cars on all branches of the
system where there is wheat to be
brought to market, and Great North
ern trains are running through with
out delay. solid and on better time
than ever before, owing to improved
roadbed, new stock, etc. There is, to
be sure, an enormous amount of wheat
being shipped as a result of cash wheat
being higher than before, and all
hands are anxious to get it on the mar
ket We supply our cars to would-be
shippers in the order that their re-
quests are received, and any delay
such as this article speaks of is prob
ably an issolated casa thing which
may happen on any road.
mo, sir, the Great Northern road
cannot afford to lose one bushel of
wheat grown and harvested on land
tributary to it, and it's officials thor
oughly appreciate this. That ought
sufficiently to answer the sweeping
charge that the company has ever re-
fused to furnish cars"

TROUBLE FoR THE OFFICER.
Two Men but Cou1du't
Make ~ Case.

The trial of Thomas McCauley and John A
Veney, two colored men arrested week
ago by Patrolman O'Malley, on a charge of
disorGerly conduct was heard before Judge
the defendants claimed at the time of their
arrest that there was no cause for the action
of the officer in arresting them. The officer
testified that he met McCauley coming out
of the house at Clio Robert street. He was
at the time looking for man who was want
ed for an offense and supposed the fellow
in the house. McCauey, he said, pushed
him away from the door and refused to al
low him to go in the house. Judge Orr, after
listening to the testimony, said while it was
possible that the defendants might have inter
fered in a way with the officer in the per-
fcrmance of his duty, there was no testimony
to show any disorderly conduct, and under
the complaint he would have to discharge
the prisoners. Complaint will be made to
Mayor Doran by both McCauley and Veney
and there will be an investigation and posi-
bly, a suit for damages.

1T COMPARES WELL.
Saltwater Penitentiary Compared
With European Prisons.

In his description of European prisons,
visited on his recent trip to Europe, Secre-
tary Hart. of the state board of corrections
and charities paid some compliments to the
Saltwater prison. Where the discipline, he
thinks, is better than in the general run of
the foreign prisons he visited, which, too,
in some cases. at least, not up to the
times. The penitentary at Christiana Nor
way, however, Mr.. Hart found admirably
managed. He writes, in concluding his OBJ
servation:
1T seems to me that the British prison
system is best organized on account of the
central control and consistent plan of man
agement the Norwegian prisons seem to me
the best administered as to details of manage
ment and administration, but there does not
seem to be complete, harmonious system of
administering the prisons. In Germany there
are no national prisons, but each city or
district manages its own prison, very much
as the different states of the union manage
ours There would seem to be the same need
of a national system there as has been so
often noticed in the United States

ANTHRACITE Coal RATES.
Checking Made on a Basis of FIFTY
Cents Reduction.


General Freight Agents Pearce and
Somers, Of the Omaha and Great
Northern roads returned yesterday
from Chicago, where they attended the
meeting of freight agents on the mat
ter of reducing the rates on anthracite
coal from the head of the lakes to
points in the Southwest.
These gentlemen add little to the
report which was sent out. The
checking in of new rates was made on
basis of a reduction of fifty cents
from the head of the lakes, and affects
all the territory east of the Missouri
river and west of the line of the
Omaha road, between here and Sioux
City.
The change which goes into effect
Sept IA, was made here to correspond
with the reduction decided upon at the
Chicago meeting.

No Right to Marble Lands.

In the case involving the title to lands in
the state of Washington, Secretary Of the In
terror Bliss, at Washington, has decided that
the Northern Pacific has no right to marble
and other mineral deposit lands along the
course of it's line. The road contested that
it was entitled to all such deposits within the
limits of the land grant. The decision is
far-reaching in that its application can be
readily made to other roads. Its effect Will
be to confine the patenting of lands by rail-
road companies to territory of distinctly agrl-
cultural or wooded character.

Larceny Charge Against Trousers
Thieves Cut Down.

Henry Grant and James Kelly, arrested six
weeks ago, charged with the larceny of eight
pairs of pants from the store of Norman &
Co., on the West side, were given a hearing
in the police court yesterday The charge of
grand larceny made against them was allowed
to be withdrawn, and both defendants plead
ed guilty to afcharge OF petit larceny, and
were sentenced to ninety days each in the
workhouse. Assistant County Attorney Zoll-
man stated to the court that it was not pos
sible. in mis- opinion, to secure a conviction
on the grand jury charge, as the person who
was supposed to have taken the clothing and
handed it to the two defendants escaped cap
ture. Several of the witnesses in the case
had also disappeared so he was willing to
allow a plea Of guilty of petit larceny to be
accepted. The prisoners have been confined
in the county Jail since their arrest.

ROADS BADLY BLOCKED.
Unable to Handle All the Traffic That
Is offered.

Is offered.
CHICAGO, Sept. 10.-The Chicago,
Milwaukee & st. Paul is trying to bor-
row 5000 cars from some of the South
ern roads to allow it to handle all of
the traffic that is offered it. Unless it
is able to get the cars it will have to
lose considerable business. AT the
present time it is using all of the cars
available, and it is unable to keep
up with the demands for cars from all
points ON it's line. The situation is be-
coming very serious, not only with
the st. Paul, but with the Northwest
ern, the Burlington, Rock Island, At
Gibson, and all of the other Western
and Northwestern roads. They are
simply unable to handle all of the traf-
fic that is offered them. All of the
roads report that not only are they
deluged with the amount of grain traf-
fic, but that West-bound merchandise
is offered them in great volume doing
away with the necessity for the hand
ling of empties on the return trip.
Notwithstanding the amount of traf-
fic in sight for the Western roads is
the greatest that they have had in 81
number of years, it is a fact that
freight rates are in condition far
from stable. There is no apparent
necessity for the cutting of the rates,
but they are being cut. The larger
lines say that it is the work of the
smaller roads, which are anxious to
get their share of the business and
are fearful that they will be barred
out of it unless they cut rates. Not
many of the larger roads are going
under the agreed tariffs, for they have
all the business they can handle at
the higher prices, but for all that the
rate situation is pronounced nv sew
eral of the leading traffic officials to be
in a shaky condition. 1t is likely that
a meeting of the Western freight COM
mittee will be called in a short time
to consider the matter.

Local News.

A dispatch from New York yester-
day brought to ST. Paul news ~of the
contamination of a big land deal which
has been pending for some weeks and
for which the employees of the land de-
partment have been preparing detailed
banking interest in New York of some
100000 acres of prairie lands lying in
the Northern Pacific land grant on
either side of the right of way in the
states of North Dakota and Montana.
The sale, which brought from 81 to IS
per acre, is sufficient to retire the Mis-
souri, division bonds of the Northern
Pacific company, amounting to some
thing like $1,75O,0OO.
Land Commissioner Phipps was not
seen yesterday, but it was learned
that these lands lie in Mercer, Oliver,
Morton, Stark and Billings counties
in North Dakota, and those portions OF
Custer and Dawson counties in Monta-
ma lying east of the company's termi-
nal at Glendive. They are all west of
the Missouri river and are both sur
veyed and unsurveyed lands.
They are all included in the govern
ment grant of July 2, 1862, and, al
though, as stated, the land department
is still engaged figuring the exact
amount, location, etc, it may be safe
ly stated that the approximate total
in acres will be as given above.
