DOCK PROPERTY SOLD.
Investment Made at Duluth by the
Northern Pacific.

DULUTH, Mimi, Dec N.-(Special.)-
The Northern Pacific has purchased the
dock property occupied by the Duluth
Roller mill. The property has a dock
frontage Of 173 feet on the harbor and 100
feet on the Omaha slip. The deal is sup
posed to have involved about $2O,00O per-
haps a little more The property was
owned by the American Exchange bank,
and John Megins held an option on It.
Mr.. Megins, a few months ago, pur-
chased the roller mill on this property,
and it is understood that he will remove
1t to some other location. The Northern
Pacific is considering the matter of in
creasing its warehouse facilities on this
harbor and may decide to build a ware
house on the site of the old roller mill, or
even across the entire end Of the dock,
distance of SAG feet.
On Dec. "a the Wisconsin Central road
will put in a tariff rate of eight cents a
hundred on grain and grain products
from Duluth to Chicago, Milwaukee and
Manitowoc on through business. The
same reduction will be made from Min
neapolis. The cause Of the proposed re-
duction is due, according to the report, to
the action Of competing roads Of making
an eight-cent rate secretly.

1t VIII Depend Largely Upon His
Own Selection.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 21.-When Mai.
Gen. Brooke was relieved from duty in
command of the division of Cuba he was
instructed to proceed to Washington and
report to the adjutant general for further
orders of the secretary Of war AS a re-
suit of correspondence between Gen.
Brooke and Secretary Root the former
has been authorized to suit his own con-
venience in the execution of his orders.
the idea being to allow him to make the
trip from Havana to Washington by easy
stages.
Gen. Brooke has been In tropical
climate for nearly two years, and as he
is nearly siXty-four years DID, it has been
deemed best for the protection of his
health to permit him to accustom himself
gradually to the winter climate Of this
country by short stops before coming to
Washington. 1t is therefore likely that
he will not reach this city much before
Feb. 1. 1t is said at the war department
that his future assignment to duty will
depend mainly upon his own wishes He
can have his old command, the depart
ment of the lakes, at Chicago, If he
wishes 1t. That command will become va
cant next month by the retirement of
Gen. Anderson. the incumbent

DARK INTRIGUES.
They Are breeding Behind the
Scenes I'm Berlin.

BERLIN, Dec. 21.-The sharp attacks
made of late upon imperial and Prus-
sian ministers seem to be bringing about
a change in political customs, as the min
listers are replying through the newspa-
pers to their assailants. Only a few
days ago DR.. Won MIGUEL answered over
his own signature the charge that he was
the Prussian minister responsible for the
dismissal of the landtag. which had Vot-
voted against the canal bill.
Today's sensa ton Is Prince Hohenlohe' 8
reply to his critics through a semi-offi-
cial article in the Norddeutsche AL
legemeine Zeitung. All this is interpreted
as showing that very dark intrigues are
breeding behind the scenes, if such ex-
traordinary steps are necessary.
The imperial chancellor's article has not
satisfied the press in the main. The
Agrarian organs are especially dissatis-
fled, declaring that the writer has not
rendered a service to Prince Hohenlohe.

the HOOf or the building, and
the Authorities Now Suspect That
Mrs. Charles BOuIin Is RespOn-
stbIe for It-Had Made Threats
Against the City.
GALESV1LLE, Wis, Dec. 21-On Nov.
rs the reservoir of the new city water
system was partially burned. An exami-
nation Of the building proved beyond a
doubt that the fire was of incendiary orr
gin. Kerosene was plainly visible on the
shingles where the wood had not burn
ed, and an empty jug which had been
used for oil was found about thirty-ive
feet from the building. The city author
tiles Immediately engaged a detective
who commenced to unravel the mystery.
From the start suspicion rested upon
the BOulin family, from whom the city
purchased the land upon which the reser-
voir was constructed. More than a year
ago Charles Boulin sold the site and gave
deed for the same For some reason
his wife did not sign the document at
that time, but agreed to do within a
few days. In the intervals Boulin was
taken suddenly Ill and died His wife
then refused to sign the deed unless GER
tain overtures were made her, the prin-
cipal demand on her part being a tap
from the reservoir leading to her home,
few hundred feet distant. The con-
tractor who put in the city water works
finally agreed to give her this tap, pro-
vided she signed the deed After consid-
cradle delay the deed was finally exc
cuted.
The contractor completed the works,
but failed to supply water for the Boulin
residence. Mrs Boulin held the city for
this delinquency and made various threats
to what would occur unless she was
given the tap. In due time the roof of
the reservoir was burned, above
stated. Today warrant was issued for
the arrest of Mrs. Boulin and she was
taken before Judge OdeI, at Whitehall.
Her hearing was set for Dec. %, and she
was released on bail. The woman IS
nearly sixty years of age, of German de-
scent and very strong minded.
