The shipping building is a large
structure three stories in height,
400 feet in length, and 80
feet in width. On the first floor of
his building are great bins and pits
for dumping the acid phosphate from
the cars as they u out on the ele-
waited railway from the mixing de-
p&rtment in the phosphate mill. These
bins and pits have a capacity for stOr-
ing 15,O 600 tons Of acid phosphate in
bulk. The elevated railway runs over
head, and the ears which run upon it
contain liz tons each. The cars are
operated by an endless cable. When
they run out on the railway they are
stopped over the pits and bin below
and their contents are dumped by au-
tomatfcaIly turning the beds of the
cars upside down. After the acid phos-
phate is dumped into the great heaps
below. it there dries and is then put
through the d~isintegrators on the
same floor.
The d~isintegrators are operated by
a 75-horse power engine on this floor
and their purpose is to relieve the acid
phosphate of all Jumps after 1t has
been through the mixing process and
is dumped into the pits. From the
disintegrators the acid phosphate, now

RIN0LIN0 DAY.
The Circus Draws q Great Crowd
Over 10, 900 People Entertained.

Over "a, 900 People Entertained.
The judgment OF the Ringing Bros.
was not at fault when they selected
Webster as a show point, making tho
long Jump from Scotland, and passing
by cities like Aberdeen, for they we're re-
warded by an attendance which exceed
ed their utmost expectations and which
as Ale. I Ringing says sputs Webster
on our permanent list" Estimates as
ia the number OF people in town Circus
day vary from 1000 to $1,000, but az
the treasurer of the show reports 9OSO
ii ckets sold for the afternoon perform
ance il IL safe to take that as a basis
a nd figure there were II, 000peoplepres
ent, as many did not attend the show
and simply came to town to witness the
parade.
The show arrived Sunday and the
C airs, when unloaded, occupied every
TO OF OF side track in the railrod yard.
Water and hay were ready and it was
not long before the We're
spread and the animals domiciled in
their quarters. The grounds were the
great centre Of attraction all day Sun
day.
On Monday equipages commenced to
pour into the city as early as 5 o'clock
a nd when the hour of parade arrived
the streets were massed with people.
When a city undertakes to take care OF
a crowd 5 or 10 times larger than it's
D opulation it certainly has a job on it's
hands, but Webster did it in style. The
d ifferent churches opened restaurants
and with the stands put up by indivi-
duals relieved the hotels and eating
houses OF caring for the surplus.
Not an accident. nor a row, marked
he day. Too much praise cannot be
given the police force under Chief Lam
don for the able manner with which
hey handled the crowd and performed
t heir duties. They kept the streets
cl ear, prevented stagnation on the side
w alks, and kept their eyes open for
iniraetions Of the law aud for pick
pockets. -Four suspicious looking gent
lemen were run in and kept confined I'M
til after the circus had gone when they
were given 20 minutes TO get out OF
town. The show vas delightfully."-
clear OF crooks, gamblers or fakirs as
Ringling's carry special officers to keep
the show clear of this class. The en-
tire show il given according to promise
and is undoubtedly the largest amnse-
ment enterprise IN the country today.
They premise to return next season and
will be heartily welcomed.
Father NJ. Weiss, the old German
priest at Sisseton was found dead We'd
nesday on the road about two miles
west of Big Stone City. From Dean
Mensing, OF Webster, and Father Weh,
OF this city, who arrived on this after
n oon's train fro;a Big Stone City where
the / uneral occurred today, the REVIEW
learns that the presumption is that he
was FRUSTRATED by the excessive heat.
George HOeumb, OF this city, had met
hi m ON the road a short time previous
and he was having considerable tFeSb!e
with q fractions horse, and it il likely
that the over-exprtion and intense heat
caused his death. The deceased was
born in Luxembourg, was Go years OF
age, had been n priest 81 years, and
had resided in this country 8 years.

BASE BALL.
Aberdeen Easily Defeated. An One
sided Contest.

The second game OF the series between
Webster and Aberdeen was played at
the Ball Park Friday afternoon and
the local team secured a glorious re-
We Dge by administering a most severe
%trounciDg to the reorganized team from
the Hub. II was only by the narrowest
kind OF a fiuke that they secured the
lone run with which they we're credited.
The local boys put up a superb game in
the field and at the bat, while the work
Of their opponents was decidedly ragged.
Play was called at 2:30 p. m. with
O'Regan in the box for Webster; Wright,
officiating in a like position for Aber-
deem. Webster started the fireworks
in their first inning by scoring 3 runs
and from that moment the game was
theirs. They hit Wright hard and ran
bases at will, while Aberdeen was maxi
ing desperate efforts to get q man
around and save a shut-out. This they
accomplished in the fifth inning assisted
by an error. To get in a run seemed to
be the heighth OF their ambition and
after they had secured il they were
asy victims. Denny Durick whom they
picked up at Andover went into pitch
the last 2 innings as Wright was decid-
dly weary. The principal features OF
the game were O'Reagan's pitching, l..
Drills play at second and Cox at third

A FAIR GAIN.
Stocks Suddenly Sweep Upward
on Heavy Buying,
An Unusual Amount of Business Tran
sacted for a Short session-Improve-
ment Melted from I to 2 Points.

New York, March 26.-The statement
last night that the Maine board of in
quiry's report would be fully as grave
as predicted, brought out a full attend
ance in the stock exchange today.
There were animated groups about all
the active stocks when the market
opened
The feverishness of the foreign mar
kets and the fairy tale that Spain had
declared war, which was circulated
about the exchange, gave momentum
to the down hill movement. Fairly large
margins were swept away and large
concessions in values ensued on every
considerable Offering. Sugar Manhat-
tan and Metropolitan Street Railway
slumpei about points. Other stocks
were sharply depressed. Gradually the
market hardened on support given the
grangers and scaled buying of the
specialties
A quarter of an hour after the open
ing the manifest intention of large inter-
ests to sustain the list led traders to
cover enormous short lines, and prices
bounded upward the shorts franticaly
bidding against each other. 1t seemed
likely that houses having vast interests
at stake had come to an agreement
over night to buy on the bulge here.
London was a large seller. After an
hours trading prices We're we'll above
yesterdays close, business increased on
the advance and shares were buoyant to
the close. which was generally at best
prices. The net improvements approx
mate points in the grangers and ex-
ceeded per cent in the leading inter-
national favorites. The specialties
gained from IL to A points, with the
maximum improvement in Third Ave
nue. The trading was on an enormous
scale for Saturday, the dealings for
the short session exceeding recent fun
days totals.
The bond market suffered in common
with the stock market, but the conces-
sions were less pronounced and business
was largely curtailed.
Government bonds also exhibited eX-
trene weakness, with the losses extend
ing to 4 points in the new fours.
