BUCKET SHOP WAR.
Case Against Coe Commission Co.
Comes Up June ID.
..AD" CAUSES SHARP CRITICISM
Chamber of Commerce Men Condemn
Papers That Print Long
s'Reader.''

On June IA the case Of the Chicago Board
of Trade against the Coe Commission
company will come up in the United
States court here. The officers and d.
rectors of the Minneapolis Chamber Of
Commerce are sanguine of a decision ia
vorable to the Chicago board. Such a de-
cision will be the signal for an attack
upon the bucket shops by the Minneapolis
chamber, This, 1t is believed, will re-
suit in putting the bucket shops out OF
business.
The whole question hinges upon the
right of trading body to control the
quotations made or it's floor as property
This question has been fought out i'll
many states. Some of the decisions in
the lower courts have at times favored
the bucket shops, but on appeals to
higher courts such decisions as a rule
have been reversed and boards of trade
upheld in their contention that the quo
their control The ODell company case
has been appealed and eminent Cincinnati
lawyers say, there is not the slightest
doubt that the appellate court will favor
the Chicago board.
In Minneapolis there is an agreement
between the Chamber of Commerce and
the telegraph companies, by which the
telegraph companies ere allowed to have
the quotations made on the floor of the
chamber on condition that they shall not
be given out by the telegraph companies
to any irresponsible parties, or for the
purpose of aiding or abetting fraud, and
that the telegraph companies shall not
send quotations to any firm without
first submitting the name of such firm to
the Chamber of Commerce for approval.
But this contract has not yet been signed
by the telegraph companies who have held
it up for three months. If the court deci-
sion on the 14th inst. favors the Chicago
board and the Minneapolis chamber, the
| telegraph companies will have no recourse
but to sign tie agreement. Once 1t has
been decided by Minnesota court that
! the Minneapolis chamber has the right
| to control it's own quotations, the course
| will be clear. They will simply procure
an Injunction restraining the bucket shops
! from operating. g
| After the sensational attack Of the
! Northwestern Miller upon the character
of one of the men connected with the
| business said a director of the chamber
this morning, II was astonished to see the
advertisement in certain morning papers
1t may be policy for these papers to dc
this from financial viewpoint, but they
have lost all standing with my house"
| 1t is intensely discouraging, said an.
| other man, also a director Of the chamber
"to see how little, regard some of the

good of the city Men have labored fol

WIPE OUT The DUTY
Younger Minnesotans Are Working
for Tariff Revision.
THEY WANT CANADIAN SUPPLIES
Sentiment Gaining Strength That the
Change Must Come Very
Soon.

Minnesota lumbermen may play part
at an early date in the Americanization Of
Canada by the purchase of timber IN the
Dominion. The opportunity offered In
Canada has caused a division among Min
nesota lumbermen on the question of free
operators in timber are for total
elimination Of the duty. These men are
well represented in Minneapolis. Lum-
bermen In other Minnesota towns who
have exhausted their opportunity are be-
ginning to look to the Dominion as good
field for operations and are quietly lining
up for removal of the duty. They arc
finding willing allies among the consum-
ers and retail dealers throughout the
state.
In this connection the declaration OF
M. J. Bowling, speaker Of the Minnesota
house, and candidate for congress in the
seventh district, is interesting to the
local lumbermen. Some of them freely
admit that the time has arrived when the
is to change. The timber supply is grow
ing rapidly less and the consuming popu-
lation at home increasing at a 'reasonab BILE
rate. There was time when in the in
terests of the state at large the entire
congressional delegation of the state could
be held pat for the lumber duty. The
lumbermen admit that time Is past.
IVY Acd4lHe IudL Iu0 CCuSuAuCL6 dAO g
tailers believe that the state in general
and the lumber industry are prosperous
enough to get along successfully without
the duty. The declaration of Bowling,
and the fact that c. B. buchanan, candi-
date for congress in the sixth district. is
registered in favor of free lumber by the
newspapers Of that district are regarded
by the lumbermen as a natural conse-
quence Of this change in sentiment. This
lie 1,1a Sin tn he ont which n
see the duty removd in ordr to give
American manufacturers in Canada a
chance at this market. 1t has encouraged
some of these men in the belief that the
time is ripe for acquiring Canadian
stumpage.
Many Michigan lumbermen already
made purchase in Canada but Wisconsin
and Minnesota manufacturers have not
invaded the dominion to any extent
Western Canada is developing about the
time that Minnesota pine is rapidly dis
appearing and most of it is being tied vi

good as it is now they do not care whether
the duty is legislated out or not. Other:
declare their intention to fight any at

concede that public sentiment in Mime
sofa is overwhelmingly against the dut!
and that the defense of the lumber dut!
must be led by the Pacific coast states
from now on. In future contests in con
