highly respected citizens in the death

disc firm Of Bradshaw, BLY, & Co. The

out the northern part of Wisconsin
and Minnesota and carried on large
fur business with the Indians. At one
time Mr.. Bradshaw spent considerable
time at the trading post of Lake Bols
Blanc, north of what is now Ely, Mimi.
While at the trading post Mr.. Brad
shaw became familiar with the Chip
pewa Indian language and was able to
speak the Chippewa tongue fuently.
Mr.. Bradshaw, since his arrival at
the Head of the Lakes, has ever been
the owner of Superior property. After
living here many years he removed
with his family to River Falls, Wis,
returning to this city to take advan-
tage of the boom days in 1890 and has
resided in this city since that time.
He was a man of fine presence, a
cultured gentleman and beloved by all
who knew him.
He leaves a wife and three children,
Anna, Susan, and John BradshaT Y. Jr.
all of whom reside here, and a large
circle of friends to whom his death
will prove a sad loss as the family Is
one of the most prominent in social
events in the city.

dence at two o'clock this afternoon.

FENCED RANGE PROFITABLE
Grazing Lands Necessitated
SS Settlement.

PIERRE, S. D., Aug. 30.-(Special.)-
Stockmen on the Sioux range, who are
deploring the fact that homesteaders are
taking up the government lands and re-
stricting the free range, will find that the
fact that they must keep closer watch
of their cattle may not be altogether
against their interests, II the reports from
Colorado ranges are an indication Of the
results of such conditions.
A recent issue of a Colorado stock paper
speaks of the conditions in that state, which
compel cattlemen to fence their ranges
and gives comparative figures of loss2s
and difference in quality of cattle which
have been held on fenced ranges and those
allowed to run free.
The difference in loss Of cattle through
the year alone shows a large credit to the
benefit of the man with the fenced range,
while there is further profit in the fact
that the owner Of the fenced range can
control the manner in which his pastures
are fed down, and hold any portion he de-
sires for winter range or hold 1t over for
the next spring. He also has absolute
control of his breeding stock. and in this
way also gains.
The Lumley Cattle company, which OPP
crate ranches Just east of this city, on
Spring creek, at the lower end of the old
Fort Sully reservation, and at Little Bend,
in Sully county, will try the experiment
Of communication between the different
ranches with carrier pigeons. A number
of these birds are being bred at the home
ranch. and experiments will soon be made
in sending messages between the ranches
with them.

technically declared at that time.
During the afternoon Brigadier Grady
arrived and occupied this morning inspect
ing the signal corps, paying particular at
tention to the searchlight station at
Prices Neck. On his recommendation a
third telephone wire was strung to the
station, so all the signal stations from
Fort Adams around the southern end OF
the island Of Rhode Island to western
points are now connected by telephone.
Just at sunset the big steam yacht
Kanawha came into the harbor with Cen
eral Macarthur. The arrangements at the
fort in this vicinity are complete. but the

STATE CAN, Ut COLLECT TAX
Judge wheeler Rules pm Inheritance
Case of the Addison
Estate.

Judge Wheeler Of the district court
handed down his decision yesterday In the
case in which the state treasurer sought
to subject the Addison Cochran estate to
the payment OF the collateral inheritance
tax. His ruling was adverse to the state.
The questions involved in the action had
not before arisen in this county and this
made the case one of more than ordinary
interest. Addison Cochran died In April,
1896, leaving an estate which the admin
i~strator, under the terms Of the will, was
required to convert into cash and as soon
as possible distribute among the heirs.
The collateral inheritance tax law was
passed about a week before Mr.. Cochran's
death, but did not go into effect until July
4 Of the same year. Judge Wheeler held
that while the heirs did not obtain title
to the estate they acquired an undivided
right to an interest In II Immediately on
the death of the testator, which could not
be affected by subsequent legislation. Had
the law gone into effect at the time of its
passage then the estate would have been
subject to the tax. Nearly $40, 900 was in
volved in the suit. which It is expected
will be appealed to the supreme court. At
torney General Mullan appeared for the
state.
The motion Of the defendant for a new
trial and a modification of the decree In
the divorce suit of Mary McGlnnes against
James b. McGinnes was overruled.
The motion Of the defendant for a new
trial In the suit of A. Goldstein against
the St. Paul Fire and Marine Insurance
company was argued and taken under ad-
visement by Judge Wheeler.

TWELVE MILLIONS INCREASE
National Banks Inform shaw They
wish to Prepare for that En-
Iargement of Circulation.

WASHINGTON, Aug. s0.-The receipts Of
the Treasury department for the month OF
August, iust closing, exceed the expendl-
lures by 1886, SIP, an Unexpectedly large
surplus. The total receipts we're s4S, sos ,S12
and the expenditures $42, $50, 900. For
the same month of last year the total re-
ceipts were $45, 1906, 125 and the expendl-
lures 500, S51,497. a surplus of a little over
Sc, 900, 900
The big surplus this month has been at
tanned in the face Of the heavy cut made
by congress in the way OF wiping of Of the
books the taxes imposed on account OF the
war with Spain. This act Of congress de-
creased the receipts by something like $s,-
500, 900 a month. In July the receipts from
internal revenue fell of more than that
figure. This month the reduction is not
so large.
The receipts from the different sources
have been as follows:
customs $3.50, 230
1ai revenue ''..''''.'''.''..''. I!,52S S6S
miscellaneous ABS, 213
For August OF last year the customs
receipts were S21, 462. III, and internal rev.
enue 1924 36, 7S4.
The increase in customs receipts pver the
same month of the corresponding year is
over 5000, 900, showing that the country
is buying more heavily abroad each month.
The falling off from internal revenue is
less than $1,000 900. The expenditures are
something over $4,000, 900 greater than for
the same month last year.
In accordance with the suggestion Of
Secretary Shaw, national banks in the large
cities are preparing to increase their cir
c~ulation by the deposit of bonds. Since
a few weeks ago. when Secretary Shaw
asked the banks to prepare to meet any
emergency by increasing their circulation
the banks have notified the controllers
ONCE that they want to stand ready for
an increase Of s12, ESQ, 900. A large portion
of this currency is now being printed at
the bureau Of engraving and printing and
will be ready for the banks so soon as the
deposit of funds is made. The increased
circulation will not be taken out at all
unless the banks are satisfied the money
will be needed in trade channels to relieve
the situation in New York or elsewhere.
The $12, Csc, 900 does not include the cir
c~ulation being taken out by the new banks
and by regular banks in different parts
of the country that have not been COM
municated with.
