VIII Operate on the Board of Trade as .
Commission Firm.


Commission Firm.
Salina, Ks, May 2O.-The state meet
ing of grain growers completed its
organization and applied for charter,
and the association expects to be in
working order before the marketing
of the growing crop
The association will have a capital
stock of $50 900, divided into 1000
shares of $40 each. The purpose for
which it is formed is to buy and sell
on commission, or otherwise. all kinds
products, and also to act as agent for
any person or company and to estGb-
lish and maintain offices, yards and
elevators for the safekeeplng, selling
and distribution of such produce. The
headquarters of the association will be
at Topeka, with subordinate offices at
such other places in the United States
as the board of directors may designate,
The company will probably do a
commission business in Kansas City,
and build an elevator there. 1t is the
intention to operate on the board of
trade and do grain business the same
as any other commission firm. The
farmers will sell to their own company
and the profits will return to the pro-
Queer instead of going into the hands
the grain combine.

Many Casualties. Efforts to Eject Ami
cable Settlement Going On.
Albany, \. Y, May 1s.-Five hours
of conference with all of the warning
elements represented failed to settle
the Albany strike of street railway
employees.
The strikers waived all the demands
for the removal of the mont union men.
The executive committee on the United
Traction company will consider the
proposition and may accept it and
settle the strike. One man killed, two
other men fatally wounded, hundreds
of others with broken heads and cut
faces, cars running merely as arsenals,
with no patrons, the city under mar
tial rule, with its citizens in frenzy
of excitement and the city authorities
and leaders of the strikers trying to
effect an amicable settlement; the
mayor Offering to act as arbitra tor,
was the condition of the situation at
closing of this dispatch.

ALBANY FULL OF SOLDIERS.
No Settlement Reached-WiII Not
Discharge Non-Union Men.
COUNCIL WOULD ARBITRATE.

Albany, n. Y, May 20-No settle
ment has been reached in the railway
strike. After hours of conference the
officials of the United Traction COM
pany and the committee from the
organization of the strikers adjourned
without changing the situation. The
company will proceed to run it's cars
on every line within the city limits
with the aid of military force that
now numbers 1000 men. The only
step toward settlement that was made
was the appointment of a committee
from the common council to arbitrate
and the adoption of a resolution de-
claring that if settlement is not
effected by Monday night the council
shall revoke the franchise of the COM
pany.
The company declares that such
action will be of no effect, as the road
now has vested right that cannot be
taken away from it.
The company refuses to discharge
the men brought from other points
This is new phase of the difficulty
and promises to develop far more seri-
GUS consequences and impediments in
the way of settlement than have been
anticipated at any time since the strike
was called. 1t is matter which had
not been considered by the strikers or
the public, and puts an entirely new
aspect on the situation. The company
was willing to increase the wages of
the extra men and night trippers to
1873 cents per hour, but refused to
establish a uniform rate of 90 cents an
hour for all employees, as required by
the strikers.
A drenching rain succeeding a warm,
humid day, made it unpleasant for the
military guarding the city, but had the
effect of clearing the street corners OF
crowds. Six hundred additional troops
of the Ninth, regiment of New York
City were added to the force

pounds when she was in good health.
When she commenced with our family
physician in April, 1898, she weighed
about $50, but kept going down all the
time. She went TO Atlanta, Ca, and
took treatment. but it did her no good.
Then she went to Harmony Grove, Ga,

kept going down under his treatrnent,

down from 100 pounds to IS, and We

gradually improved and got stronger.

good what would they want them for?
John, if you sold everything you have
and came out here you would be worth
more than ever you were before, and
if you can bring your team. You can
get anything you want on tick, and
when they do that with strangers they
are not afraid they can't make enough
to pay for it. l saw as nice wheat as
