SANBORN'S EXPLANATION
Says Removal Of Superior Company's
Books to Canada Was in In
terest of Economy.

Philadelphia, Sept. 1O.-E. P. Sanborn,
vice president of the Consolidated Lake
Superior company, to-day made public a
statement answering the criticism Of the
company's action in removing the books of
the corporation from this city to Sault
Ste. Marie, Canada. The officials of the
concern gave the stockholders permission
to examine the books, but when counsel
for the stockholders visited the company S
office here he was informed that the ac-
counts had been transferred to the COM
-pany's office at Sault Ste. Marie. Mr..
Sanborn's statement is in part as follows:
When Mr.. Shields was elected presi-
dent Of the Consolidated Lake Superior
company in April last, one of his first
steps was to close the expensive offices
in this city and transfer all Of these &C
counts to the works at Sault Ste. Marie,
Ont. There was no secrecy nor mystery
about this removal, as 1t was announced
in the papers at least two weeks before
the change was made and was COM
mented upon several times as a COM
mendable move, in the direction of an
economical administration of the COM
pany's affairs. This action Of five months
ago has been ingeniously distorted into a
surreptitious spiriting away of records
within the past few days."

MAY Be SINBAD'S MOUNT
California Professor Discovers an Al
most Perfect Magnetic Pole Near
Skaguay, Alaska.

Stanford University, Cal, Sept. TO-
Samuel Jackson Barnett, assistant profess
sor Of physics, has returned to, the uni
versity after several months spent in sur
vey work along the Alaskan coast. Pro-
fessor Barnett left here last May to take
charge Of a party sent out by the United
States coast and geodetic survey to make
accurate surveys of the northern country
along the coast line.
The party made a special investigation
Of the peculiar magnetic disturbances
which have made navigation difficult in
certain localities. Near Skagway these
disturbances are very severe, the defec-
ton Of the needle being so great that the
compass is rendered almost useless in that
vicinity. It was found that this strange
state Of affairs was due to the abundance
Of magnetic rock in the locality. This
rock Is present in immense quantities on
Douglas island, and on the mainland and
near Skagway it is especially abundant.
Professor Barnett says that there was
almost a perfect magnetic pole at that
point He will prepare a full report on
the subject for the government. -f

RAILROADS.
NO ADVANCE OCT. |
Indications Are That Grain Rates
to the East Will Not Be
az, Raised.
Advance Likely to Come in Novem-
!. Der or December-Up to
Trunk Lines.

The proposed advance in rates on grain
and grain products was the most impor-
tant question discussed yesterday at the
meeting of the Central Freight associa-
tion in Chicago. The association en-
braces all lines which run east from Chi
cago and st. Louis. AS a result OF the
conference, 1t is probable that no advance
will be made until Nov. I, or perhaps
later. This assures the northwestern mil
lers Of stability in rates. and will enable
them to proceed with the manufacture Of
flour for export. .
At yesterdays meeting traffic officials
OF the Chicago-St Paul lines held con-
ference with a committee Of the eastern
roads, presenting remonstrance from the
millers of the northwest against the pro-
posed increase Of 2 cents per 100 pounds
on flour. These ,millers declare that If
rates on export flour are raised from Chi
cago they cannot compete with the millers
Of the southwest, who ship via the gulf
ports. Some relief Is afforded the north
western millers by the Canadian roads in
connection with the steamship lines from
the port of Montreal, but for obvious rea-
sons the millers of the northwest want to
be able to ship export flour via New York,
Boston. Philadelphia and Newport News
as cheaply as their southwest competitors
can via the gulf ports.
A majority Of the Central Freight as
ISOLATION lines declared it would be poor
policy to advance grain rates Oct 1, and
a telegram to that effect was sent to the
Trunk Line association, asking If 1t would
concur In pOstpOning, at least until De-
cember. the proposed advance Of 2 cents
on grain and grain products. No reply
from the trunk lines came before the adj
1ournment Of the Central association, but
from present indications the grain and
flour rates will not be advanced Oct. l.
but will be In November or December.

MORMON ATTACKS ROOSEVELT
Declares the President Is a Janus
Faced Hypocrite.

New York Sun special Service. -. !
Salt Lake, Utah, Sept. 10.-Former
Congressman William H King, son-in-law
of apostle Francis Lyman, heir apparent
to the Mormon throne, made a savage at
tack on President Roosevelt at meet
ing held here yesterday. Judge King, in
an impassioned speech, alluded to Presi-
dent Roosevelt as a grand stand player
and a colossal egotist. He said that Of all
the Janus-faced creatures all the states
have produced, he had never had the mis-
fortune to meet his equal.
He said that while Roosevelt professeG
to oppose trusts, he is doing all he can
to promote the asset currency scheme for
the benefit Of the banks. He charged
Roosevelt with processing religion and do
ing all In his power to encourage war and
fasten the chains of militarism on the ma
ton. He made a prophesy in which he
said that Cleveland and Bryan would be
found together after the next national
convention in stern opposition to repub-
lfcan policies.

DOCTOR SAID
"QuIt Wrong Food and Eat Grape Nuts

An Illinoisan who has been through the
mill says: Last spring I was so bad
with Indigestion I could not digest even
soft-cooked eggs, and doctor said I must
eat predigested food and prescribed Grape
Nuts. I changed for the better before I
had used one package, eating 1t three
times a day.
my improvement on Grape Nuts food
was so wonderful that concluded to use
your food drink Postum In place Of tea
and, to make long story short. have not
been without Grape-Nuts and Postum
since, and my present health proves my
doctors wisdom in prescribing Grape
Nuts I have got strong as a horse and
well and I owe 1t all to your delicious
food and Postum" Name given by Pos
tum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.
In the making Of Grape-Nuts food all
the indigestible starches Of the grain are
transformed into Post sugar. Every par
ticle of Grape Nuts Is digestible In the
weakest stomach. Physicians have never
found a stomach too weak to digest and
assimilate 1t. @
