these being some of the names under
which it is known to q certainty that
he has operated, had his preliminary
hearing today on the charge of swind-
ling Mrs. Jauetta Berg, of Battle
Lake, out of $1,000,
Mrs. Berg's story on TIE witness
stand was to the effect that he came to
her store in Battle Lake, anpe caring to
be q responsible travelling man and
appointed her exclusive agent for the
sale of some small articles, for which
agency she paid him 49, In further
convers alton he discovered he was q
long lost cousin, and on the strength
OF the supposed relationship offered
her large reduction on a stock of
ladies' ready made furnishing goods
and other articles. He agreed to
bring the goods to this city and that
she should come here to select them.
When she arrived here she found
him at hotel, reading his bible and
awaiting the arrival of the stock
which for some unexplained reason
had failed to come On schedule time.
He explained that the company which
he represented-a large Chicago con-
Germ which has no existence-was not
in the habit of doing business this
way and would make it exceedingly
interesting for whoever was response
BILE for the delay.
In his brief acquaintance with Mrs.
Berg he had spared no pains to i'm
press upon her that he was q deeply
religious man, and finding there was
no possibility of the goods arriving
during the day he finally persuaded
her to pay him the money-an even
81, 000-and allow him to make the Sc
lections. When she turned over the
money she asked for receipt, but the
request seemed to hurt his feelings to
such an extent tn 1T she did not press
the matter. The defence put in no
testimony and the prisoner was bound
over to the grand jury, bail to be
fixed by the district court.
Since the arrest, the county attorney
has received letters from the prosecut-
ing officers in several other counties
where similar operations have been

phone by the Stearns county sheriff
who stated that in case he was not
bound over here, he would like to
take him 10 St. Cloud, to answer q
charge. The county attorney at Ver-
million, S. D.. where he recently
broke jail, writes that he has been
making some Investigations and finds
that the fellows swindling operations
have been carried on from the Gulf of
Mexico to the British possessions, his
victims in almost all instances being
women.

DENMARK.

DENMARK.
During the snowstorm of April 10
the snow was piled up in enormous
drifts, which in certain places in
North Sjalland were from IL to 16
feet deep. This was the first time
in the history of the railway traffic OF
Denmark that the snow completely
blockaded the line between Copenha-
gen and Roskilde for period of
twenty-four hours. Some of the mail
was hauled on sleds as in pre-railway
times. At least one man froze to
death in the storm.
The aid fund raised by subscrip-
ton for the fishermen who suffered
from the storms last Christmas
amounts to $4,000.
A bad mistake has been made by
the company owning the Oscar H.,
whose engines were so badly dam
aged on the Atlantic ocean that it
had to return to the Azores islands,
where its 1900 emigrants were land
ed. The steamer was next taken to
Scotland for repairs, and the crew,
consisting of 100 men, were discharg-
ed at Glasgow. This was an unusual
procedure, and the men complained
to the marine court of Copenhagen,
which ordered the company to pay
the men two days wages extra.
Peshke Koedt, Danish merchant,
has written such a meritorious arti-
Gle in favor of free trade that the ex-
ecutive committee of the famous Cob
den Club, by unanimous vote, has
translated parts of it for publication
in the English free trade papers.
German and French economists have
also published extracts from the ar
ticle, which is said to be the most
convincing free trade argument which
has appeared in print for a good
many years.

CUBA'S MANY HEROES
FTty Thousand Gallant Defenders
Want 6O,OOO,OOO.

Havana, Aug. 3.-GeneraI Maxine Gomez. the
chairman Of the commission dealing with the
matter has just completed list of the revoll-
uonary soldiers entitled to pay General
Gomez stated that the list consists of about fifty
thousand soldiers, and does not include civil en-
ployes. lie believes that the pending loan will
not cover more than half the claims and an
ticipates that the Cuban Congress will provide
for the payment Of the balance in some form of
due biz. payable with interest, after consider
able interval, and probably capable of being dis
counted and transferred.
The General says the work of the commission
is final, that the lists have been prepared with
the most painstaking care regarding require
ments as to proofs Of service and, that the sub
sequent revisionary commission is not author
lied to change the lists except to add names Of
others proving themselves to be valid soldier
claimants, and Of those civil employees entitled
to wages in connection with the -insurgent army,
and further to attend TO the details of the pay
ments.
General Gomez said the rate of wages allowed
to ordinary soldier is 81 a day for the
periods Of his service. Sergeants and commits
stoned officers are separately computed, the
amounts allowed ranging from a few hundred
dollars to $4,000. the latter sum being allowed
to himself as con.mander-in-chief. The pay of
many generals and colonies is fixed at $4,000
and upward. The majority of the privates will
receive in the vicinity Of $780, indicating two
and one-half years service. General Gomez
said the total altogether exceeded the commits
sion's expectations but the claims were re-
viewed so carefully that there was no doubt as
to their Justice No allowances have been
made on account Of disabilities and injuries III
CURED. The list IS purely for pay.
The decidedly unpopular idea entertained by
the soldier element that the army will be paid
in full. does not find much credence in admin
stration circles. The total amount Of the
claims has caused some surprise and the mat
ter is at present in indefinite shape but ii is
not believed that the government will consider
it advisable to go beyond paying the veterans
proportionately to the full extent Of the loan.
According TO present indications the amount
of the loan Will not meet more than 80 or 60
per cent Of the total claims but ii is expected
that the Cubans will acquiesce in ending the
matter by paying off the obligation to the ex-
tent Of the governments present ability with
out hampering the nation with a further load
of debt. The 100000 paid by the United
States through Major General Brooke former
Military Governor of Cuba, TO the Cubans who
turned in their arms is not counted in the
soldiers pay list.
