FUNDS FOR THE RED CROSS
GENEROUS DONATIONS AT SUN
DAY EVENINGS MEETING
Added to the Minneapolis Branch
The Work of the Society Out
lined by Speakers-Plans for Re-
Gen. Carnahan Perfected.

The largest and most profitable
meeting in the interest of the Red
Cross Society of Minnesota yet known
was held in Westminster church. Min
neapolifis, last evening. The capacity
of the church was none too great to
accommodate the audience, which
proved itself a generous one by adding
IS3 members to the Red Cross society
and $500 to the funds of that society.
Rev. Pleasant Hunter, the pastor, pre-
sided and music was supplied by the
church choir and the Masonic quar-
tette. A defamation, THE Blue and
the Gray" was given by Ada Huntly
Pillsbury. DR.. j. w. Macdonald, the
first speaker, recited the history of the
Red Cross movement, as at other meet
ing, and depicted the horrors of war,
which it is the mission of the society
to alleviate. He also indicated the
wide scope of the work which will be
necessary, even if the war should very
speedily cease, particularly the care for
the helpless and starving in Cuba.
In the absence of Judge c. B. Elliott,
President Northrop was the only other
speaker. He had not expected this
burden of the meeting to fall upon
him. but die rose to the occasion and
after sorting out materials for his i'm
promptu speech found the sympathies
or MS auulence ana aroused SOHie pa
triotic fervor. He declared that never
in the history of man had SO just and
unselfish a war been undertaken be-
fore. He hoped that after the declara-
ton in the resolution of congress that
the United States will not take Cuba
as her own property. But he thought
nothing should be given back to Spain
and those territories of which moth
ing was said in the resolution may nat
urally be retained. He believed the
war will be short and that eight
months from now the American flag
will mean safety and peace for the
Philippines. Porto Rico and Cuba, and
much for the moral support of the
world.
The meeting was opened with prayer
by Rev George Norcross, Carlyle, Pa.
a delegate to the Presbyterian national
assembly in Indiana from the Second
Presbyterian church at Carlyle.

Early June finds not little activity in but
ter circles, with prices fairly we'll maintained.
Pasturage is excellent in dairy sections every
where, the output is naturally large, and the
price low as it always is at this season. While
quality has been somewhat lacking, it is i'm
proving rapidly, and the grass flavor, the good
texture and generally admirable keeping
qualities are doing much to encourage opera
tors to buy freely for cold storage purposes.
Old goods are well exhausted and the trade
is healthy with current arrivals at leading
points both West and East quickly absorbed
The season for grass butter has opened au-
spiciously and the undertone of the market is
one of general confidence. Dealers at New
York, Boston, Philadelphia and Chicago are
all storing freely for autumn and winter mar
kets. Foreigners are showing some interest,
yet the export movement Is small, consisting
chiefly Of the cheaper grades. The English
markets are fairly steady in tone, but well
supplied with butter made nearer home

ST. PAUL PRODUCE

The produce market during the past waek
has been one of normal activity for this
season Of the year. Probably the heavi ST
transactions were in butter of all grades
for which there has been a large demand for
shipment and for storage. The prices have
remained firm for all grades. Eggs cen inue
in active demand with correspondingly good
supply. These, likewise, are being bcugh!
in considerable quantities, both for shirment
and storage. A considerable invoice was
forwarded during the week to San Francisco
The market for old potatoes is stagnant there
being absolutely no demand for this stock.
New vegetables are coming onto the market
from local points in good supply and con-
dt1on. The heavy rains throughout all ter.
ritory tributary to st. Paul have had the
effect Of producing, not only rapidly, but
excellent qualities in all lines of vegetables
cultivated hereabouts. In the fruit market
the principal commodity has continued to
be strawberries, which are bsing recei ed In
enormous volume from Iowa and Wisconsin
with some few offerings from Southern Min.
nesota. The Wisconsin berries are now pre-
vailng, and the quality, though not up to
the standard of some previous years, is fairly
good. Raspberries, both black and red, grown
in Indiana. made their appearance on Fri
day. Another carload of cherries was re-
