Mr. Gronnerud, accompanied by
Mrs. Gronnerud. were at the Beau
fort IN Minneapolis last Wednesday.
They were en- route home, accord.
ing to Mr.. Gronnerud, from West
Baden, Indiana. where he had been
taking the baths for his health for
some time past. He would make no
statement regarding his own dnan-
cial condition, and desired to avoid
any reference to the closing OF the
bank at Beaver Falls, as well as his
other transactions. He was feeble.
in body as well as IN mind, and
when away from the hotel It was
necessary for Mrs. Gronnerud, or
some other person to remain with
him.
Here in Redwood Falls it has
been generally understood that Mr..
Gronnerud was one of the wealth
lest men in this section, and that he
could place his hands on more ready
cash, or advance more collateral
paper than any other man in Ken
vile county. If it is a fact that Mr..
Gronnerud is attempting to pass
through bankruptcy, leaving a vast
amount of liabilities, with no assets,
the wonder will be as to what be-
came Of the large amount OF money
which he has handled. Few, in
deed, are there who will not believe
that there is something wrong and
that Mr.. Gronnerud owes it to the
many people with whom be has
done business to make a frank state
ment of his financial condition.
If it is true that many people have
paid the amounts due on mortgages,
and received either no satisfactions,
or illegal satisfactions, there will be
an endless amount of litigation for
the courts of Renville county for
years to come.

Nebraska is likely TO be known

DESTRUCTION TO PROPERTY.
The Storm OF June 10th Hit Various
Places in This County.

The storm Of Monday evening OF
last week did considerable damage
to property in various parts Of Red
wood county. On the farm Of John
Kellar, in Kintire township, barn
was wrecked and when Mr.. Kellar
awoke on Tuesday morning he
found his horses in the open air
hitched to the hangers, where he
had hitched them the the night be-
fore. The animals were uninjured.
The barn was scattered all over the
premises and some of the boards
were broken into prieces not over a
foot long. One piece Of the de-
molished building was driven
through the granary. The chicken
coop on the premises was torn in
two pieces and carried some dis
tance from where the coop originally
stood. The night before the storm
Mr.. Kellar had hauled a load of hay
from the meadow. The hay was
left standing on the rack near the
| barn. When the tornado struck the
premises it lifted the hay and all
but the bed of the rack from the
wagon and carried the timbers some
distance and strewed the hay all
lover the field. During the storm
Mr.. Kellar, nor none Of the inmates
of the. house, heard the noise. He
considers himself lucky to have his
building torn down by the wiGd
without his horses having been
killed or injured.
The wind played more or less
havoc on the farms Of Mr.. Duncan
and Fred. Muetzel, the latter in
Sheridan township, tearing some of
| the outbuildings quite badly.
A bolt of lightning descending
that night struck the barn Of Mrs.
MARC quardt, in Vesta township, set
fire to the building and destroyed
the four horses and one COW enclosed
therein. They were the only horses
and only COW owned by the lady,
who has been unfortunate in family
affairs during the past year.
"A Lamberton special says that on
the same evening a baby tornado
struck granary in which some
young people were having a dance
The wind picked the building up
and carried it about 150 feet, strik-
ing and destroying a corner Of a
barn, and was itself smashed to
splinters there. All those inside
were more or less injured John
Noting had his right leg broken;
John Bittner and Charley Long
were knocked unconscious and
bruised about the face. Ina Bitt-
.ner was quite severely bruised, as
was Christ Noting, who had his
head severely bunted by the fall
ing timbers. None of the injured
will die. The storm was severe in
that city, breaking in large glass
in r. Morton S building and tearing
away a tin roof under processof con-
lsstruction.

ANOTHER WASTE BASKET PETITION.

The Home Rulers are amusing them
selves by getting up petitions asking
for the removal of the Governor. AS
the residuary legatees of the old Royal
list faction they cannot forgive him for
bringing the Islands under the Ameri-
can flag. hence these memorials. petit
tions. private letters and the like which
periodically overrun the baskets
OF the Interior Department or supply
kindling for the Presidents CRATE fire.
The plan this time Is to have a few
names to the sheet and have so many
sheets that the President will be amaz-
ed al the bulk OF the petition and the
newspapers will tell about It's magni-
tude- Incidentally. by this method,
great many names can be safely re-
peated. or merely copied from census
lists and the mOrtuary statistics OF Ha-
walls aboriginal Inhabitants. OF all
the humbugs which come out Of Hawaii,
petitions against the local Government
are the most transparent They repre-
sent few people of any consequence and
stand for nothing but sore heads and
excited apPatites; and their fate Is de-
termined by the public JanItor.

BALL NEARLY PAU

There will be a meeting of the Ha-
waiian intercollegiate Football League
at noon tomorrow in the rooms of the
Honolulu Athletic Club. The main OBJ
ject of the meeting is to consider the
protest Of the Honolulu Athletic Club
team, which arose out of the Thanks
giving day match with the Punaheu
Athletic Club.
A week from tomorrow the final
meeting of the league will take place
at which financial and other business
will be squared up.
The league game scheduled for SAT-
urday is between the Honolulu Athletic,
Club and the Artillery. The formers
team has stopped training, however.
and it's members are not turning out;
TO practice. The Artillery, on the other
hand. are eXerting every effort to be.
in shape TO close their season with a
decisive victory.
The scheme to bring down the Olynn-.
pic Club football team seems to have,
died a natural death as far as Homo,
lulu is concerned. A report came on
the last boat, however, that the Olyn-
pics were raising money at the other
end. and would come anyway.

a THE TRAMwAYs. DECISION.

For the third time the Tramways
company has applied to a court to help
IL deprive Honolulu of an up-to-date
electric railway system, and to fasten
its dilapidated cars and skinny mules
upon the community; and for the third
time it has ANONYMOUSLY failed.
The Territorial Supreme Court, the
Territorial Circuit Court, and finally the
United States Federal Court has each
been appealed to in turn. in a vain
attempt to prevent the Rapid Transit
company from installing it's splendid
system.
Yesterday Judge Estee not only dis
missed the Tramways bill for an in
junction, with costs, but administered
scathing rebuke to the manager for his
contradictory affidavit and bad taste
in seeking to evade a decision of the
Supreme Court, after a voluntary sub
mission under oath had been made by
both companies and a decision rendered
adverse TO the Tramway company. Aft
er lapse of over six months. without
appeal or protest, Mr.. Pain had the i'm
pudence to come into court and plead
the baby act, by alleging that although
he was present in the Supreme Court
when the argument took place, and was
then, as now, the sole manager and rep
resentative of his company in Hawaii,
with full power to employ and dis
charge counsel, and to control litiga-
ton, the company" was not present:
and then on the next breath, he claim
ed that he had the right to bring the
same company into court in the cur
rent proceeding, although his authority
is the same now that 1t was when he
appeared before the Supreme Court
Judge Estee well characterized Mr.
Pain and his company as attempting to
enter a court of equity with unclean
hands"
This is the dying kick of the semi
defunct mule combination, and the
Rapid Transit Company will now be
free to proceed unmolested in the in
stallation OF it's system.
