LITTLE MILLERS /.
MAKE A COMBINE"
Southern Minnesota MiIIers Will Go Into the
Export Business Together Head
Office Here.

Southern Minnesota millers have formed
a combination to compete with the big
milling concerns of the world and espe-
cially the big mills of the west, for for
eign trade. The combination is to be
known as the Export Transportation COM
pany with headquarters in Minneapolis
and a resident manager in Chicago.
The smaller mills have been forced to be
content, as a general thing, with what
trade they were able to find in their i'm
mediate territory. Now and then there
has been mill that by persistence and
advertising has been able to push its
brands beyond It's immediate district.
Wherever the small mill could secure
enough home trade to keep the plant prof
ftably employed, it has been content to
allow conditions to remain as they were.
But the big mills have been cutting into
the local trade more and competition has
grown keener at home as a result Of the
increase in the number of mills, which has
had the immediate result of reducing the

toned that several hundred harvesters
starved into submission, went to work
on the track at small wages.
Homeless and Without Food.
The scenes in Winnipeg are remark
able Hundreds OF men aimlessly wan
der through the broad thoroughfares,
hungry and disheartened. The platforms
OF the hotels near the stations are night
ly filled with crowds Of tired, hungry
men, who have not money to get a bed,
and the waiting room at the station is
packed to suffocation by men, women and
children, who have travelled over thou
sand miles to start life anew in what
they considered the promised land.
Hundreds of harvesters are coming in
daily, and they are met upon their arri-
val with the hard-luck stories of the ad-
vance guard. Then follows an inquiry
into the conditions and speedy applica-
tion to the Canadian Pacific railway to
be taken back home.
Plenty to Do Later On.
The government crop report, just is
sued, shows that the wheat crop will be
about 49,OO0,OO0 bushels, and it is a rec
ord one. To harvest it will require the
help Of every harvester who has come
here from eastern Canada and the states,
but the men are not needed yet. They
were brought here too soon and are suf-
fering now in consequence of a mistake
made by the government, which even
went to the length of advertising for help
in Minnesota.
Before all the new arrivals can get work
serious trouble Is feared unless the gov
ernment dives down in it's pocket and
spends thousands Of dollars d assisting
the men. There is dangerous element
in the army of harvesters, as was shown
on the trip out when villages and towns
along the Canadian Pacific railroad line
were looted right and left by the excur-
sionistS.

NO OFFER OF REWARD

Attorney General Laughs at the Re-
quest of the Antitrust League.
Ness York Stt,s Special Servtos
Washington. Aug. 23.-Attorney General
Knox will pay no more attention to the
Joint committee representing the anti
trust league and the local district assem-
bly, OF the Knights Of Labor, unless they
bring something to him having more
weight than their opinions and rumors.
He thinks his answer to their request for
copies of the secret agreement between
the United States Steedl corporation and
the constituent companies, particularly the
Carnegie, is sufficient reply to the open
letter prepared as a rejoinder to his let
ter. The attorney general laughs at the
suggestion that he offer a reward for
copies of the alleged secret agreement.
Congress has made no appropriation for
rewards of any kind. Mr.. Knox, in order
to offer reward. would have to draw on
his private resources and that he will not
do, particularly as he has already stated
that he doubts the propriety of the attor-
ney general undertaking to procure evil
dence for private litigants.
