CONSUMER PAYS BILLS
BAR IRON MEN FORM A GENTLE
MEMS AGREEMENT"

PITTsBURG, Oct st is learned on
good authority that the price war of
several years standing between the
Western Bar Iron association and the
Eastern Bar Iron association, the two
organizations which have dominated the
price of iron and steel bars for a num-
Der of years, has been adjusted. The
two organizations have come together
and adopted a minimum price of 81 So
per 100 pounds, Pittsburg base price. The
details of the agreement are not made
known, but it is understood that a. close
arrangement or 'gentlemen's agreement -
containing forfeiture agreement, has
been adopted.
For three or four years the Eastern
association has cut the prices of the
Western association. The latter was and
has been the largest producer. It's mem
bers are the Carnegie Steel company,
Jones & Laughlin, limited, American
Steel Hoop Tug & Co., Republic Iron
and Steel company and a number of
smaller concerns. The Eastern people
have persistently cut the rates, and a
number of attempts to reach agreements
failed several times after first steps had
been successful.
The arrangements which have finally
resulted in a peaceful solution of the
price war were consummated in New
York recently.

LA CROSSE, Wis, Oct 9-Accordipg
to Rev. G.. E. Fairs address to the Wis
ccnsin Baptists, in session here, all
churches are at the present time in a
state of spiritual decline He contends
that there are no such churches as were
known years ago, and that growth is now
stunted. 1.-The worldly ways have entered
into the house of God" he exclaimed.
There are no such revivals and proba-
tionistS are scarce compared with for
mer years" He explained however, that
students of the Bible know that it is
history repeating itself, and that re-
ligious enthusiasm has ever been more
or less spasmodic. He, however, de-
plored the degeneracy in all classes in
the churches, and said that even I'M
morality was thing to be considered.
Mr.. Farr is from Portage.

Norwegian Lutherans Meet.

RED WING, Mimi, Oct. 9-The an
nUal meeting of the Hague Norwegian
Lutheran Synod of America may be held
in this city in June. The past confer
ences have been held at places from
which invitations have been received, and
where local congregations have enter
tanned the visiting clergymen and dele
gates, but it is low the purpose that the
delegates take care of themselves be-
cause the great number now attending
make entertainment for them difficult
The reason why Red Wing is favored as
a conference town is because the school
of the synod is located here.
Three sadly neglected children of AL
fred Hultgren have been committed to
the state school at Owatonna. They are
aged s, II and Is years, respectively.
Their stepmother left the children to
themselves, and when the authorities

WASHINGTON, Qets "a report by
Lieut.. Bertholf, Of d the revenue cutter
service, upon the importation of Siberian
reindeer into Alaska, received at the in
terror department, dseloses markable
mortality among the animals during the
voyage. The deer were taken to Alaska
in the Russian ship "a Progress, which
landed at the Teller, reindeer station,
Alaska, on Aug. 49, nine days out from
Siberia. Of the 425a deer taken on board
only 254 were landed alive. Lieut.. Bert
holt ascribes the heavy loss to the bruis-
ing of the animals by being constantly
thrown down by the action of the ship,
which encountered several severe gales.
The Laplanders say st.at the deer were
starved, although there was plenty of
moss aboard, by the troughs being too
high from the deck. The deer have been
apportioned among the already estab-
lished herds. One herd has been set
apart for the Quaker mission at Kot-
Zeke.
The report adds that there has been
no summer in Alaska, and that snow
began falling on Aug. rs.
