Mr.. Rauch Returns from q Four Weeks
Trip in the West.

W. H. Rauch, Esq, has just returned
from a four weeks business trip to San
Francisco. He reports Kiondike stock
high. Every hotel is filed with Alaska
enthusiasts and Adventures. Compan-
les are being formed by the hundreds,
with the object of sending parties in the
interest of the company to the land Of
gold. Mr.. Rauch states that fruit grow
ers are greatly dissatisfied with the high
railroad charges for shipping fruit, and
the relative low price received for the
same. The fruit growers claim that bar
ley pays better than fruit growing and
many are now digging up orchards and
seeding 70 barley. In 1896 grapes only
brought $3.50 per ton in the vineyards of
California. Tons OF pears. peaches, april
cots. plums, figs and other soft fruits
are rotting in the orchards. Kansas,
with S1.00 wheat is better than any state

STATE OF MANHATTAN.
Proposition to Segregate New York
in Tammany's Interest.


New York, Nov. 12.-It is said one
of the first bills to be introduced in the
legislature will be one providing for
the creation of a new state by permit
ing a constitutional amendment to
be passed and approved by the United
States government, severing 10 counties
OF the state, and including them in what
shall be known as the state of Man
haitian.
The plan proposed is for the counties
of New York, Kings, Queens, Richmond,
Suffolk, Winchester, Orange, Putnam,
Columbia, Duchess, Ulster, Greene,
Rockland, Albany, Rensselaer, and part
of Schoharie to be formed into one
state, with a population of 1902 20, as
compared with 1881, 1913 for the A re-
manning counties. This would make
the new state of Manhattan the second
largest state in the Union in regard to
population, Pennsylvania alone eX-
ceeding it.
The remaining counties left to COM
prise the state Of New York would
make a state the fifth largest in the
Union. exceeded only in population by
Pennsylvania, Manhattan, Illinois,
Ohio and Missouri. The new state
would be territory in it's 16 counties
of $3.50 square miles, as compared with
a territory of A counties of 1888 square
miles.

HEROIC TREATMENT.
Case That Has Excited Attention of
Eminent Physicians.

Eminent Physicians.
st. Paul, Mimi, Nov. 12.-Miss
Mathilda Anderson, a young woman
who has been kept alive at the CITY
hospital for six weeks by artificial
respiration, died late last night of con-
gestion of the lungs. For AZ days the
nurses and physicians have been fill
ing Miss Andersons lungs by artificial
means, at first by raising and lowering
the arms, and when that became pain
full, by operating on the chest. BY this
method, however, the lungs were
partially filled at best and had the
nurse stopped even for five minutes
Miss Anderson would have strangled
and died. And yet the young woman
had become so used to the manipula-
ton that she ate and slept almost
naturally and could carry on CONVEX
sation.
The young girl was victim of
laundry paralysis when received at
the hospital, and when that disease
was complicated with congestion of
the lungs it was impossible to save her.
The case has attracted the attention
of many eminent physicians.
