MILWAUKEE, Wis, Aug. 12.-The
Journal today says: The Milwaukee
Harvester company works, of this city,
has been sold to an Eastern syndicate
for 5000, 900 cash. The deal was con-
summated through a prominent firm of
local attorneys and the transfer made.
The designations of the officers of the
old companies were received and ac-
cepted and the works will be in the
possession of the new officers within
few days. $3.50
Just who the Eastern capitalists are
could not be ascertained, but is thought
that they are representatives of a trust.
The information as to the deal is au-
thoritative.
The Milwaukee Harvester company
plant was brought here from Beloit,
Wis, in 1886, by Senator Fred Den
nett and Assemblyman L. Holden Park
er. Its capital stock was then $4,000.
Here Burnham Bros. and A. K. Hamil-
ton became interested in the business
and later sold out to Stephen Bull, OF
Racine, who interested his sons law,
Richard and Fred Robinson, Frank
Bull and c. M. Mcintosh. They began
at once to add to and build up the bust
ness and their authorized statement of
the years business just completed is
that the output was 10000 machines.
The above named men composed the
officers of the company up to yesterday
and their designations being accepted,
the firm of attorneys which consum-
mated the deal assumed the manage
ment and will manage the firm until
relieved.
The good will of the business is I'M
derstood to cut an enormous figure in
the purchase price. No changes will
be made in the location of the plant
and the name or business will continue
without break. The deal is the larg-
est that has been consummated here in
years.
Perhaps Hint in This.
TRENTON, N. j., Aug. 1.-THE In
ternational Harvester company, with
an authorized capital of $12O, 900,
was incorporated here this evening.
The company is authorized to manu-
facture harvesting machines and agri-
cultural implements of all kinds. 1t is
understood that among the concerns
interested in the syndicate is the Nc
Cormick reaper and mower concern of
Chicago. The articles provide that all
VI the S1zU,OUO,UOO OF the capital stock
stall be common stock unless it shall
be decided to increase the company's
capital beyond those figures. In that
event, $120,000,00O is. to become pre-
ferred stock and the additional capital
is to be common stock. The incorpora-
tors of the company are: Abram M.
Hyatt, of Allenhurst, N. j.; George w.
Hebard, New York; R. r. Dennis, Au-
burn, N. Y; Edward M. S. Miller, New
York; Robert S. Green, Elizabeth. N,
j., and Erastus M. Cravath, New York.
No Confirmation in Chicago.
CHICAGO, Aug. 1.-THE story of
the absorption of the Mccormick Reap
er and Mower company, of this city,
by the International Harvester
company could not be confirmed to-
night, as both Harold F. Mccormick
and Cyrus Mccormick are in New
York. None of the subordinate officers
of the company would confirm the re-
port, neither would they deny it. One
of them, who declined to allow his
name to be used, said: 81 will not talk
of the story at all, but guess it is
good enough to print"

The new town of Lanesboro, Iowa.

RESUME WORK ON BRIDGE PIER
Northern Pacific Is Active in State of
Idaho,

MULLAN, Idaho, Aug. 12.-The
Northern Pacific is again at work
building cement foundations for steel
bridges on the mountain east of here.
AS there is no intention to work on
any bridges east of the IS" bridge. it
is conjectured that at an early date
work will begin on a tunnel here. 1t
has been officially announced that
such tunnel would be built, and the
announcement was accompanied by
the intimation that road would be
built between Wallace and Occur
q City, making this the main
line of the Northern Pacific, and really
furnishing double track between Lo-
gan, Mont, and Spokane. This would
practically make a double track from
Spokane to Missoula, Logan to Mis-
soula already having a double track.
Work was begun on these bridges
last fall, but was abandoned early in
the spring. 1t will take long time
to complete the work, as 1900 barrels
OF cement and hundreds of carloads
OF mill tailings will be used in building
the arches and piers. s =.

ST. CLOUD, Mimi, Aug. 10-The
refusal of Contractor Carl Kropp to
recognize st. Cloud union, No. $50,
Brotherhood of Contractors and Join

seven union men employed by Ray
mond & Dunnewold this forenoon.
One of the employees had been put
to work this morning on the mill work
for the Normal addition, for which
Kropp has the contract, and others
were to be put to work very soon on
the contract, which is quite large
one. An officer of the union visited the
factory, learned that work on the
Kropp contract had been started, and
then called out the men. Thisaaction
was not unexpected and they quit
work at once.
An officer of the union stated today
that their parent organization had
also notified the carpenters that they
should not work on the Carter build
ing, now in course of construction,
and some trouble may result there.

that board decided today to recommend

The Vesuvius attracted much atten-

she proved a failure during the Span

laid up in the Charleston navy yard.
1t costs about $4,000 a year to take
