LEASED OR1NoCO MINES.
Minnesota Company to Get Big
Income From It's Concessions.


FARIBAULT, Mimi, Aug 9.-The
Orinoco company, controlling the vast
concessions in Venezuela, has just
closed a deal whereby it's iron mines
at Santa Catalina are leased to the
Orinoco Iron company. The iron COM
pany is composed chiefly of a syndi-
cate of wealthy New York men, among
them being j. E. Searles, of the sugar
trust, and associated with them is
James E. York, who is quite well
he had something to do in the promo
ton of enterprises
By the terms of the contract the
Orinoco company is to receive a royal
ty of 121a cents ton on all ore taken
out, and the syndicate must commence
shipping by July, 1898, and the mine
output must be not less than SOC, 900
tons or more a year, though the min
imum contemplated after the first two
years is 100000 tons a year.
Mr.. York, who is interested in the
new project, has had a lifelong ex-
perience in the iron business, and
after carefully examining the quality
and quantity of the ore found on the
Venezuelan concession, unhesitatingly
says that in his opinion it is the best
in the world. The deposits on the con-
cession are practically inexhaustible,
are of a very high grade and suitable
for the manufacture of Bessemer steel
and are easily mined.
A well known Minnesota mining en-
gineer sailed last week from New
York to begin the development Of the
mine, and it is expected to begin ship
nents to the United States next year

day, and reserving their best energies
until the last, wrested a we'll played
game from Detroit. The smallest
crowd of the season saw the struggle.
A heavy shower fell shortly after 1
o'clock and kept hundreds away. 1t
was comedy of errors as far as De-
troit was concerned in the first inning,
the visitors Juggling in four runs on as
many misplays, two singles, double
and hit by pitcher. Detroit retaliated
by falling upon Fricken for a single,
two doubles and hit by pitcher, which
sent in three TALES. After the first
round both Hahn and Fricken settled
down like old men at a chess match,
and for five innings it was as pretty
battle between the pitchers as one
could wish to look at. Shortstop Hol-
lingsworth tried his best to hand the
game over to Delehanty's minions, but
the latter we're unequal to the emer-
gency, failing to swat when base swipes
We're more in demand than tickets to

lar stop of Hines grounder, and
George caught two flies that were
tagged for three bases each. The
Saints, with the exception Of Hollings-
worth. played championship ball. In
the first the Apostles batted clear
around before the last man was buried.
Mcbride was struck in the ribs, Nyce
fired a two-bagger, Nichol missed
Georges single and Stelnfeldt threw
Glasscock's grounder low to first.
Glasscock started for second, drawing
a throw which was returned wild to
the plate, Jack making the circuit. In
Detroit's half Fricken duplicated
Hahn's feat Of hitting the first man UP.
DUNCAN cut off a double Hines smote
for two sacks, and Steinfeldt drove in
the third run After that not a VOL
VERNE got beyond second until the
seventh, although three were given
dives by errors by Hollingsworth and
Glasscock. In the seventh Hahn beat
out a bunt to first, Delehanty sacri-
feed, Hollingsworth bungled his third
grounder, billiard hit, and Fricken, af-
ter he picked up Hines grounder, hest
tated whether to throw to first or third,
and while his wheels ratified all hands
landed safe. DUNCAN scored on Mich

ninth singles by Kline, Mcbride and
Glasscock and Nyce's sacrifice scored
two more. In the seventh Mcbride hit,
Davis threw in the ball, which went
through Delehanty and rolled to first.
Mcbride tried to take second, and was
thrown out. Nyce went to first on

FARGO, N. D., Aug. 9.-The applica-
ton of the Central Trust Company Of
New York for an injunction restrain
ing the tax sale of the Bismarck water
works by Burleigh county was argued
today before Judge Amidon in the
United States court. The Central
Trust company. as MORTGAGE, has ad-
vertised a foreclosure sale, and asks
for an order, and will fight it out on
the issue as to whether or not the
water works property is real or per-
sonal property. The arguments were
completed yesterday afternoon. and
the court took the matter under adj
visement
Another phase of the Russell-Miller
Milling company's case came up today.
1t has been thought best by all credi-
tors of the concern that the sale of the
Jamestown and Valley City mills
would be the best thing that could be
done. An application was made today,
wherein E. p. Wells, of Jamestown,
asks if the transfer of property can be
made. There is no contention among
the creditors of the two mills, the only
question for the court to decide being
the legality Of such atransfer. HeW!ll
look the matter up, and will probably
render a decision tomorrow.
The matter of A. T. Bowen and
others against J. A. HanWay, agent
Of the assets of the Old National Bank
of North Dakota to enforce an &C
counting, came up under an order OF
the court made some time ago. Mr..
Hanway sold the assets of the bank
to J. A. Percival, of Devils Lake. There
was some difficulty in procuring a
clear title to the Marsh and LOOMS
property which is in the name of +.
Ashley Mears. The matter will be
taken up again this morning and it is
expected that it can be cleared so that
an accounting can be made by MI
HanWay at an early date.

day, but on motion of the attorney

the United States court of the state
OF South Dakota has rendered a deci-
sion in the matter in that state, and
from the decision it appears that the

right to fix rates prior to July 1, their
action was premature and consequent

FIGHTING SOUTH DAKOTA RATES.
Railroads Claim to Be Doing Bust
ness at a Loss.

SIOUX FALLS, S. D., Aug. 9.-The
battle of the people against the rail-
roads of South Dakota will now be
fought out in the courts. The prelimi-
nary bout was really a victory for the
railroads, for their sole contention was
that the railroad commissioners had no
right to promulgate a schedule of rate
prior to July 1. This is the decision
of Judge Garland, and as soon as the
schedule of rates is published the rail-
roads will ask for an injunction re-
straining the commission from putting
the rates into operation.
The railroads declare that the rates
proposed are confscatory in their
effect, and ought to be enjoined To
prove this the Milwaukee road alleges
that it's total gross earnings for the
past five years in this state have been
S9,052,965, and it's net earnings 2,753,-
Az. In this period it claims to have
paid in interest on its funded debt,
$6,797, 42051. leaving a deficit of $4,044,-
0GS35, or an annual loss on the road in
this state of $S08, 8O167 The North

state of affairs. 1t alleges that it's

Ironton Company Gets Decision
Against the Steel

DULUTH, Mimi, Aug. 9.-Judge
Cant has decided the case of the Iron
ton Land company and the Ironton
Structural Steel company in favor OF
the former. The land company, some
years ago, gave a bonus of $4,000 and
some land to the steel company to as
sist in building a big steel plant In
1893, to settle balance, the land conf
pany gave a note and mortgage for
$4,000 to the steel company The steel
company began foreclosure proceed
ings recently. The land company OBJ
jected on the ground that there was
no consideration for the note and
mortgage, the steel company not hay
ing lived up to it's agreement to build
and operate the plant.
Judge Cant holds that the consider
alton for the note was the expected
enhancement of the plaintiffs proper
ty by reason of the operation of the
plant. He finds that the land would
have been worth $4,000 if the steel
company had kept its agreement. He
finds that it did not do this, and de-
clares the note and mortgage void
The steel company has invested about
$250,000 in the plant, and it has never
been steadily operated as yet.
