TWO OLD RESIDENTS.
Henry l.. Hubbard and Theodore
Ray Join the Majority.

Henry L. Hubbard, who has been resi-
dent of Minneapolis for forty-three years,
died Monday afternoon at the home of
his daughter, Mrs. Emma H. Marks, 203
East Sixteenth street. The funeral serv-
Ices were conducted yesterday afternoon
by the Rev. George D. Black, and the
remains were shipped to Omaha, where
they will be inferred today.
Deacon Hubbard was sc years of age
and retained his vigor almost until the
moment of his death. A few minutes
before his death, Monday afternoon, he
had gone out and secured an evening
paper, and then sat down in his chair
to read. Suddenly his head fell back,
and as peacefully as a child goes to
sleep, he passed away. Two daughters,
Mrs. Marks and Mrs. l. c. Seeley, sur
Vive him.
Theodore Ray died yesterday at the
age of IS. Mr.. Ray had resided in Min
neapolis for over forty years, and I'M
til the last four years had been an active
business man. Since that time he has
been a great sufferer. He is survived
by wife, daughter and a mother aged
"a. He was an old soldier, and the fu-
neral will occur at o'clock this after
noon from the chapel at the Soldiers
home. The interment will be at Lake
wood

No Change In original Plan.
WASHINGTON, June ga Missouri
delegation appointed by the state Repub-
lican committee today called on the pres
ident and Director Merriam, of the CEN
sus bureau, and protested against the
method of apportioning the census super
visors for Missouri equally among Demo-
Gratis and Republicans. The committee

publican state committee; Nathan Frank,
vice chairman; eX-Mayor Walbridge,
Railroad commissioner Joseph Fleury
and Ralph o. Steuebner, of the same
committee, and r. C. Kerens, national
committeeman.
Director Merriam assured them the
method of apportioning the census super
vjsOrs met the approval of the Republican
congress-, and the Missouri delegation and
that as all the arrangements had been
made he declined to change them.
The delegation afterward called on the
president and at a long conference with
him, with Director Merriam present, re-
neWed their protest, but II is understood
there will be no change in the plan origin

UP GO THE PRICES.
Predicted Advance I'm Farm Imp1e-
ments Has Been Made.

CHICAGO, June 6-The Northwestern
Plow association, an organization TWEEN
ty-f1ve years old, today changed it's name
to the Northwestern Plow and Imple-
ment association. The change of name
was made so as to include all Of the
manufacturers of riding and walking
plows, corn planters, disk and spike
working implements under a single or
ganization.
After consolidation the meeting unani-
mously decided to advance the prices of
all the above articles 20 per cent above
the figures now ruling. The advance is
to apply on 1900 business, as all of the
contracts for these articles for this year
have already been made. An advance
in all railway materials was given as
the reasons for the change.
Explicit denial was made by all of the
officers and members Of the organiza-
ton that the matter of a trust in i'm
plements or plows was considered at
either of the meetings. This matter, it
was claimed, was in the hands Of the
promoters, the prospects being about
even as to whether it would go through
or not.

EXCITEMENT AT EVELETH.
Flooding of FayaI Mine Alarmed
the POpuIace Greatly.

DULUTH, Mimi, June 6.-Eveleth, the
mining village on the Mesaba range, was
visited by a terrific storm early yester-
day morning. 1t was cloudburst. About
4 o'clock the alarm signals at the Fayal
mine were sounded, and the whole popu-
lation was at the mouth of the mining
shaft as rapidly as they could get into
their clothes. The cry that the mine was
flooding had gone through the village, and
In a mining town that is terrible cry.
The men were quickly brought up, how
ever, and every one escaped. Six mules
were drowned.
The pumps were unable to keep pace
with the inflow of water and were finally
drowned out. There was twenty-nine feet
of water in the mine yesterday. The
depths of the shafts range from 200 to 400
feet, and the mine is very complete, being
fitted with electric lights and the most
modern machinery.

BAYFIELD,, Wis, June 6.-The trim
passenger steamer r. G. Stewart, from
Hancock to Duluth, is an unsightly bit
of charred wreckage on Michigan island,
one of the Apostles group. The hull of
the boat struck at midnight Saturday
night and, while the gallant vessel was
pinned fast, flames assailed her and she
was burned to the water line. The fire
broke out Sunday morning at 10 o'clock,
and the passengers and crew barely had
time to escape with the clothing they
happened to have on. One of the crew
was drowned in escaping from the burn
ing boat. The rest, with three passen-
gers, were saved. The dead:
McKENNA, GEORGE, wheelsman, of
Detroit, Mich.

The lifeboat was launched when the
fire broke out, and all had entered 1t
except McKenna. He jumped into the
little boat from the steamers deck and
capsiZed it. All the others managed to
get hold of the life lines but McKenna
was drowned. The lifeboat drifted
ashore soon afterward. McKenna's body
was recovered, and when the ship
wrecked people were taken off by tug
today his body was brought ashore for
burial All those who escaped saved
nothing but the clothes they had on.
Once their feet touched the beach they
made all haste to get to the lighthouse.
Their wet clothes made their exposure to
the chill wind bitter. The lighthouse
crew helped them dry themselves, and
none will suffer seriously. They all lost
everything except the things they wore.
Last night they managed to reach the
main land.
The R. G. Stewart was owned by the
captain, c. o. Flynn, of Duluth, and in
sured in Duluth agencies for $1,000. She
is a total loss. She was small steamer
and was run regularly in the coasting
trade along the south shore of Lake Su-
perior, sailing from Duluth. She left

by one Of the men most interested. These
stories have been circulated at various
times, remote and recent, but nothing
confirmatory has been obtainable. 1t Is
not asserted that the deal on hand at
present is In tangible shape, but it is real
enough to have necessitated conferences
in New York and the plans are now I'M

cerned.
From widely different sources today
canfe reports Of an Independent union of
the American Sugar Refining company
and the Glucose Sugar Refining company,
with the subsequent absorption by pur-
chase, or otherwise, of the plants owned
by the Arbuckle interests and the Doscher
refineries, with, perhaps, other competing
plants.
II can say nothing definite at this
time said one of the head men of the
recent conferences. ct am in a confiden-
tial position in reference to the matter
but 1 am at liberty to say that there is
a good deal more in the reports of a
combination of the sugar interests than
is generally credited. Negotiations are
in progress on the general lines indicated,
but 1 cannot speak more specifically"
