FISH WERE RELABELED
sHREWD SCHEME TO EVADE THE
STATE GAME LAWS
Executive Agent Fullerton Has Pro-
cured Warrant Against n
Wholesale Fish Firm of Minne-
apolis, and Two Employees of the
Northern Pacific Express Com
pany Have Been Discharged.

Executive Agent Fullerton returned
yesterday from Northern Minnesota,
where he unearthed one of the smooth
est schemes for evading the state game
law yet discovered.
Had it not been for a mere accident
the scheme might have been success
fully operated for years. AS it was
an agent of the Northern Pacific EX
press company, at Minneapolis, and
one express messenger, We're sum-
marily discharged from the service of
the company for making themselves
parties to the fraud.
For some time past large shipments
of fish have been made by Platt &
Co, of Minneapolis, to Brainerd. Stap-
les, Little Falls and Royalton. One
Of Mr.. Fullertons deputies looked up
some Of the firms to whom the ship
nents were made and found no record
Of them in the State Gazetteer.
MI. Fullerton thought this strange,
and early this week he boarded the
overland Northern Pacific train on the
Northern Pacific, after taking a list
Of the shipments made by Platt & Co.,
and the destination of the boxes.
When it reached Royalton the train
did net stop, and Mr. Fullerton went
forward to the express car and could
turning to one of the sleepers he found
General Superintendent Hay, Of the
express company. He informed him
that shipments of fish had been made
to Royalton and other towns, and
that the train did not stop, and he had
every reason to believe that the fish
were being carried out Of the state.
The two went forward again and
Supt. Hay Immediately investigated
the matter and found that the pack
ages had been re-billed and tagged,
In this way Platt & Co. did not make
a direct shipment out of the state. An
other set of bills and tags were made
out for the goods by the messenger on
the car.
The messenger confessed the decep-
ton and he was discharged. The fish
were seized and complaint was made
out against the Minneapolis firm as
soon as Mr.. Fullerton and Supt. Hay
returned to Minneapolis.
Mr.. Fullerton does not hold the
Northern Pacific Express company to
blame, as Supt. Hay showed every dis
position to assist the commission in
running down the dishonest agents.
The peEalty for shipping fish out Of
the state is $40 each piece, and the fish
seized have been counted and confiscat-
ed and other evidence which was col
lected against the commission house
will be placed in the hands of Mr..
Byrnes.
The state treasury was yesterday en-
fiched to the extent of $1,150, collected
for fines imposed upon vielaters of the
state game law, of which $1,000 was
paid in by William Kingston, of Tower,
who was caught shipping 800 partr idges
out of the state The other $150 ifi' fines

strength permanently established by
the use of Paine's celery compound
the greatest nerve restorer and blood
purifier the world has ever been bless
ed with. Try it, and when you go to
the drug store for Paine's celery COM
pound see that you get it.
Mrs. Bolser speaks for countless
women who have suffered from aching
backs. worn and tired feelings, and
have been freed from pain and weak
ness by Paine's celery compound. Mrs.
BOlser tells the story of her deliver
ance from invaIidism in the two fol-
lowing letters:
Mountain Junction, Tenn, Nov 8, '94.
Wells, Richardson & Co.,
Dear Sirs-Two years ago I came
from Nova Scotia, and I suppose my
debilitated condition was partially ow-
ing to climatic influences. 1 used va
rious kinds Of medicines, but continu-
ally grew weaker, until it was with
difficulty that 1 could go UP and down
stairs, and in trying to walk out Of
doors, could go oe1y a, few steps when
1 would be obliged to lean against
tree or sit down. I had read frequent
ly of Paine's celery compound, and re-
solved to Use it.
1t put me on my feet again, so that

a debt Of gratitude for the same. I
recommend the compound to my
friends far and near.
Yours gratefully,
Mrs. G. B. Bolser.
After two years Mrs. Bolser still
praises Paine's celery compound.
St. Elmo, Tenn, June %, 1896.
Dear Sirs-I still continue friend
and well wisher Of Paine's celery conn.,
pound, and have received replies from
my friends Of its good results on my
recommendation. 1 wish you contin-
ued success. Yours truly,
One Of the largest retail druggists in

they find instant relief. Many fami-

it to their husbands when they re-
turn home at night worn out from
business cares. 1t never fails to invig-
crate both the mind and the body, and
is a preparation that meets a common
want for a safe and beneficial tonic"

TRADE PECULIARITIES.
Prospects of Peace Have u Curious
influence on Business.

Prospects of Peace Have u Curious
influence on Business.
NEW YORK. Aug. PR. G. Dun & Co.'s
review of trade will say tomorrow:
Prospects Of peace have had a curious
influence on business contracts not quite at
tainable on common sense grounds. Nobody
expects disaster or exhaustion of national
resources, and nobody feared that anybody
else was afraid of either. Yet orders un
usual in number and size have been placed
since Spain asked for peace. In some indus
tries the gains have been large for about two
weeks while in some textile manufactures
it has only began to appear this week, but
involved a considerable increase in the work
ing force.
''Crop prospects are on the whole more
encouraging, for the governments latest re-
port as to corn is much larger than the
commercial estimates. and promises a heavy
yield, while allowance is made for it's habit
ual error in it's wheat return.
Money markets show no sign OF possible
disturbance. Securities are stronger, and
there is no harmful speculation in stocks
or products. Rarely has the financial out
look been more nearly unclouded.
"a slight furry in cotton lifted the prices
a sixteenth on Tuesday. but it dropped again
the next day with the official foreshadowing
of large yield.
The iron and steel trade fully supports in
ferences drawn from recent events The
demand for steel is SO heavy that some Of
the biggest concerns have been buying, one
taxing 40,UOO tons, advancing the price at
Pittsburg from s1450 to $15.25, which was az
last refused. Bessemer pig is steady, and
other pig there and at Eastern and Western
markets in general, but rails have been rails
ed by Eastern manufacturers to SIS per ton.
The makers of structural beams have ad-
vanced the price 81 per ton and makers Of
merchant pieces have advanced the price S
per cent, while plate makers are crowded
to the point of refusing orders, both East
and West, and bars are stronger, with many
mills engaged for many weeks ahead. Il
Illustrating the demand are reports of orders
for 10000 cars at Chicago. 1000 tons struc-
tural work there and big orders at Philadel-
phia for cast pipe and 60O0 tons elsewhere
Eastern manufacturers appear now to be
crowded to their utmost capacity as the
Western have been for some weeks In the
minor metals there is heavy buying
Textile materials have been sleeping, but
are awakening. The demand for wooden
goods Is now much better although not vet
extensive enough to warrant paying the
prices asked for new wool, and nearly all
the buying has been OF old stock The ag-
gregate sales at the three chief markets
have been only 53S7, 600 pounds for the week
about third of the sales In the same week
OF 1897. while in 1892, for the corresponding
period sales were 1852, 900 pounds.
THE demand for cotton goods is a little
better as to staples and fairly good for
print cloths, prints and ginghams, and vet
probably does not suffice to cover the Cur
rent output.
For the week failures have been 1es IN
