TAKING TESTIMONY.
whether Is Is Admissible Can Be
Settled Later,

In spite of the contention made by Attor
ney General Cowan, of North Dakota, that
the time when the roads could introduce tes-
timony in the much talked-of rate cases has
expired, the railroad attorneys interested in
troduced a quantity of evidence under the
ruling sent to Master in Chancery Lowell by
Judge Amidon, that the taking of testimony
could proceed and the question raised when
the master submits his report to the court.
Most of the day was consumed in the intro
duction of the rather bulky documents con-
tanning evidence.

The Republicans of the Ninth ward
will hold meeting this evening at
Thirteenth and Canada streets. The
understanding is that the gathering
will indorse Edward Feldhauser, resi-
dent of the ward, as a candidate for.
mayor.
One Of the leading politicians of the
ward, speaking of the meeting, said:
THE voters of the Ninth ward and
especially the Republicans are in favor
of the candidacy of Feldhauser for
mayor. The other wards are holding
meetings and indorsing candidates and
booming favored sons, and the Ninth is
not going to be behind in this particu-
lar. SO far as there being a split in
the ward as to the candidacy of Mr.
Feldhauser. the statement is untrue as
the meeting tonight viii show Unless
something unforeseen happens there will
be a solid delegation from the Ninth for
Feldhauser for mayor"
John Bloomquist, a contra ctor, resid-
ing on Cook street, is mentioned by his
friends as an aldermanic possibility In
the First ward.
Andrew S. Larson, elected to the as
sembly to fill the vacancy caused by thu
elevation of Arosin to the fire board,
stated, or his friends did at the time,
that he would not be a candidate for
reelection. The indications are now
that Larson Will not try for the assem-
bly,, but he is a hot candidate for the
position of alderman from the ward.
1.-THE Scandinavian element in the
ward said one of the leaders of yes
terday realize that something must
be done for the voters of other nation
alitfes and that if a senator and repre-
sentative from the Scandinavian ranks
In the ward are to be selected next
fall the candidates for alderman and
assemiblyman cannot both be Scandi-
navians. With this end in view
Henry Neff will probably secure the
nomination for the assembly and As
semblyman Larson get the aldermanic
nomination.

REVOLUTION IN ROUTES.

burg & Gulf.
CHICAGO, Feb. 16.-The Kansas City, Pitts
burg & Gulf road continues to give its com
petitors the greatest concern. 1t threatens
to revolutionize the present routes of traffic
1t claims that the Gulf offers the proper
outlet for the export trade of the entire
West and it will leave no stone unturned to
establish the supremacy of it's favorite route.
To secure the meat traffic to Chicago II has
made a rate Of 10 cents from Chicago through
to Amsterdam. This is 1872 cents less than
New York have been making. 1t is rate
with which they say they cannot compete
1t would be better for them to go out of
the business altogether than to attempt to
do so.

other hand. says it is but a question of its
ability to handle all the traffic it can secure

LAND FOR SETTLERS.
Great Northern Has Disposed of
Considerable Acreage This Year.


Considerable Acreage This Year.
George B. Purves, of the Great Northern
land department at Crookston, came to St.
Paul yesterday, and reports the sale Of some
1000 acres of rich agricultural lands in
Kittson and Polk counties to bona lde settlers
who will plant crops in the spring. This
land has been sold during the week past,
and brought on an average from $3.50 to 81
per acre.
Several thousand additional acres have been,
in the last few days, contracted for, and will
be disposed Of in week to new residents
of Minnesota.
The officials of the land department Of this
road have declined to encourage the pur-
chase of several large tracts in Wilkin, Mar
shall and Polk counties, believing they were
to be obtained for purposes of speculation.
Even at an advance in price offers for the
tracts referred to, from parties in New York.
Iowa and other places, who wish to buy on
time, were turned down, the feeling being
that only sales to actual settlers will build
up and populate the now unoccupied terri
tory.
