SLATE IS AGREED ON
Senators Have Made Up Their List
Of Officers and Employees for
the Session.

Members of the new state senate say
that the organization is practically COM
plete and that Lieutenant Governor Ray
Jones has made up his list of committees.
A majority of the republican senators have
agreed on slate, which gives each man
the naming Of one official. S. A. Langum
will be secretary Of the senate, and his
assistants will be A. D. Countryman of
Appleton and G. B.. Wollan of Glenwood.
Thomas Downs will be sergeant-at arms
and E. A. Montgomery of Minneapolis
will be clerk of the judiciary committee.
The two best committee chairmanships,
it is said, will go to Senator Somerville
Of Sleepy Eye and Senator Brown Of st.
Cloud. Somerville will succeed E. T.
Young as chairman Of the judiciary com
mittee and Brown will head the finance
committee, formerly presided over by T.
V. Knatvold. - ..
The house organization is still consid-
erably in the air. Julius Schmahl has a
"cinch'' on the chief clerkship and Ed
Tanning has no opposition for sergeant
alarms. The ninth district has a can
didate. for first assistant clerk in w. A

FACTS ARE AGREED UPON
Mound View Cow Case Makes Prog
ress-Legal Points Yet
to Be Argued.

The now famous Mound View cow case
came up for hearing before Judge Brooks
this morning. Nelson & jackson, dairy
men, are seeking to compel the state board
Of health to condemn and kill certain cat
tie pronounced diseased by the Minneapo-
lis city board and quarantined in conse-
quence.
The suit is an outgrowth of long
standing dispute between the local and
state boards. The state board asserted
that the local authorities had no right to
inspect herds owned by dairymen whose
wares were vended in this city. AS a le-
gal proposition this was found to be incon-
trovertibe but the council passed an or
dinance requiring milkmen to secure lie
enses. They then refused licenses to deal
ers whose cattle had not been inspected
and pronounced free from disease by the
city board.
The Nelson & Jackson herd was in
spected and several COWS were declared
diseased. A license was then refused the
firm which consequently took steps to
have the diseased cattle condemned by
the state, as under the law, the state is
compelled to pay for cattle killed by order
of the state board.
The facts were agreed upon this morn
ing and the case will now be argued on le-
gal points The decision is important and
will be awaited with interest by dairymer
all over the state.

THE ACTING MAYORS SALARY
Council Votes Mr.. Jones Full Com
pensation From Sept. i.

Much of the time of the aldermen last
evening was occupied in coaching City
Clerk Lydiard to attune his voice SO as to
fit the peculiar acoustics Of the council
chamber. Before the meeting was, oyer
Mr.. Lydiard had found the right pitch,
tone and degree of strength and tempo
best suited for the room and business was
merrily dispatched. At the initiative Of
Alderman Lars M. Rand, the salary of the
mayor from Sept. to Jan. l, amounting
to S6GS66, was ordered paid to Alderman
D. P. Jones, acting mayor. Mr. Rand
said Mr.. Jones had richly earned the
money and he hoped that none of the al
dermen would let partizan prejudice stand
in the way. The resolution was
unanimously adopted. - .
Mr.. Rand later introduced resolution
requiring the board of charities and cor
rections to permit families receiving re-
lief from the city to have the grocery
orders honored at any store they may Sc
1ect. The matter was brought UP at the
instance Of the South Minneapolis grocers,

n The large four story building at 109-111

by w. s. Mott Company, manufacturers Of
betting and rubber goods, was. completely
destroyed by fire last night. The loss is
estimated at 1000, fully covered by In
surance st>st go
The fire started in the basement the
cause being unknown. The flames, fol-
lowing the elevator shaft, soon mounted to
the upper stories and by the time the fire
department arrived, the whole structure
was a mass Of flames. Chief J. R. Can
terbury, upon his arrival sent in a general
alarm. s.- .,.-5 II -. -.
The warehouse was filled with tar
paper, building paper and other COM
bustible material and it was soon evident
that it would be impossible to save the
structure. The department then turned its
attention to the work of saving the sur
rounding buildings. Within an hour after
the alarm had been turned in, the four
floors of the Mott building fell to the
basement. Thirty minutes later the
front walls fell into the street with great
crash. -.-r''*'
The building was erected about eighteen
years ago and has had many tenants, in
Guiding the Lyman Eliel Drug company
and the Luce type foundry. It was
leased by w. S. Mott & Co. about two
years ago. 1t was valued at $4,000 and
is fully insured. The stock destroyed in
the building was valued at $25, 900 and was
also completely covered by insurance.

THE OUTLOOK IN MlLLING|
J. S. Bell Says It Is Good The
Northwest Favored With
Good Wheat.

j. s. Bell, president of the Washburn-
Crosby company, says that the outlook
for milling in the northwest is good and
that the output Of the Minneapolis mills
for the crop year will show an increase.
Mr.. Bell says:
"The reason for expecting good year
is that the northwest is the only part
of the country that has good wheat.
Kansas is not a competitor and the mills
of Missouri, Illinois. Indiana and Ohio
have been buying wheat from the north
west to mix with their poor wheat. 1t is
reasonable to suppose that flour buyers
will, throughout the remainder Of the CROP
year, as they have the first quarter, pre-
fer flour made in the. northwest, from
all good wheat, to flour made from such
mixtures" .@-5a-
Asked if he expected scarcity of mill
Ing wheat before another crop, Mr.. Bell
said: -. - as
mo, although there will probably not
be great amount left over. The north
west has been drawn on heavily for wheat.
but / think the mills will find supplies
until anoher crop"
Mr.. Bell said that althogh the ex-
ports from this country to the United
Kingdom would doubtless show a falling
off. this would be made up in other di-
rections, SO that the exports for the
year would be maintained at last years
figures. .... d.

A NEW GATEWAY
Hills Chicago-Manila Route a Big
Thing for the Twin
Cities. b
There II Be Return Trade and Larger
Facilities for Handling West
= Bound Business.

The award to the Boston Steamship
company of the contract for carrying to
Manila via Seattle government troops
and supplies means much to Minneapolis.
The contract awards to the Hill Steam
ship line, about IS per cent Of the govern
ment business until July l and it means
that his business will pass through Min
neapolis on the Hill lines s
i. Congress is to be asked to authorize
contract for long term of years. If the
Boston company captures the long con
tract 1T means that the bulk Of the gov
ernment's business to the Philippines will
go west through the twin cities, and that
the return commercial business will be
increased enormously. The government
will ship forage, in addition to other
supplies now carried by the transports.
This city is to a certain extent to take
from Omaha the title of gateway to the
west. 1t will be the principal city on the
most important highway between Chicago
and Milwaukee, the east and the orient.
The effect on freight rates to this
city for Pacific coast and oriental prod
ucts should be favorable. President Hill
has constantly sought westward bust
ness to offset the lumber business east
ward. The cars must go back to the
coast loaded to make lower rates for
eastbound freight possible. The gov
eminent contract will be very desirable
from this standpoint for the merger
lines.
The transport service through San
Francisco will be continued for time,
but when this is abolished the passenger
traffic through Minneapolis will be enor-
NOUS This will undoubtedly secure to the
| retai merchants here many dollars worth
of business from the soldiers and officers
in the interim between the arrival of
eastern trains and the departure of trans
continental trains.
The increase in freight traffic will Of
course be the most beneficial as it will re-
quire the expenditure Of thousands of dol
lars by the railroads at this transfer point
for increased terminal facilities, equip
ment for switching and in wages for adj
ditional crews required to handle the
! through cars loaded with government
! property.
The St. Paul army headquarters will
| undoubtedly take on more Importance as
being the transfer point Of army stores
and troops from the east The two cities
will also be the assembling point for
bodies Of troops destined from tributary
sections of the country for the island pos
| sessions.
This being the initial point for western
! transportation it is also probable that To-
cal contractors will profit from an in
creased interest in bidding for govern
lnent supplies. The factories Of the two
cities are we'll qualified to manufa cture
| many articles for government use.
