The Shaft Price Shoe company may re-
move Its plant to Faribault.
The company has "a proposition to re-
move under consideration. Recent labor
troubles have done much to persuade the
Shalf Price officials that, a removal might
be q good thing.
The Saturday before Christmas the cut
ters at the Shaft-Pric factory went out.
They had submitted a; demand for a fat
rate OF $3.50 per week.. to supersede the
piece system under which cutters had
been paid from SIS to $3.50 a week, ac-
cording to the amount of work done. The
company refused to grant the proposed
scale. and the works were shut down,
throwing 105 men out of employment.
Last Monday an effort was made to re-
sumo work and the factory Is now. run

We are considering. proposition from
Faribault now and. If we can agree on
terms, we will go there. What is more,
we aren't far apart at the present, time.
We can get a suitable building there
with good trackage facilities and, as we
DO not own our own buildings here, the
removal would not entail any considerable
loss. We considered carefully the propo-
sit1on made to- us: by our cutters and re-

SCHEME GOES BUMP
George R. Hanford's Proposed Com
bine of Wholesale Grocers Has
Been Given Up.
The Scheme Was Unweildy and the
! Promoter Had to
Quit.

It is said that George r. Hanford, who
obtained much prominence as promoter
Of the proposed wholesale grocery COM
bine, has given it up as a bad job Mr..
Hanford, 1t will be remembered, called q
meeting of the wholesale grocers at De-
troit, which was attended by a large num-
Der. For some time after this meeting
plans for the combine were pushed but
the Commercial Bulletin reports that Mr..
Hanford finds it will be necessary for him
to include every wholesale grocer in the
United States in order to make the scheme
go at all, and the job is altogether too
large for one man.
At the present writing all of the pro-
posed wholesale grocery combines have
fallen fiat. A promoter is at work among
wholesale grocers in Kansas, Missouri and
other southwestern states, endeavOring to
round up wholesale houses in that section
of the country. A meeting was held at
Kansas City during the past week, but it
is not believed anything will be accom-
plished. ..'
The promoter has found that many
wholesale grocers are willing to enter q
combine If certain other grocers can be
pulled in When the certain other gro
GERS are talked to they are willing to en-
ter if certain others are included Each
addition makes more additions necessary,
until every crossroads wholesale grocery
house is brought into the game. Conse-
quently all of the wholesale grocery COM
bines are now like the flying machine
which lost it's wings.

THANKED The COURT
VIM. English, Hold-Up Artist, Ex-
presses Gratitude for Five
Year Sentence.
Early, Who Stole a Horse and
Buggy, Goes Up for -Four
Years.

A confessed hold-up artist, William
English, this morning appeared before
Judge Harrison and was sentenced to five
years in the state penitentiary. He ac-
tone when the judge Had finished.
Notwithstanding the fact that the de-
PENDANT had pleaded guilty to the charge
Of grand larceny in the second degree,
the state introduced several witnesses in
order that the court might know the ex-
act nature Of the case. Officers Brown
and Grumpy told their story Of the cap
ture of English, stating that they had
been given tip as to the intention Of
the man and had concealed themselves
in a closet of James Vasey's saloon on
the night Of the hold-up.. From this place
they watched the whole proceeding and
rushed out in time to order English to
hold up his hands and to shoot at and
finally wound and capture him They
swore" that the second ;hold-up man made
good his escape by disappearing into the
kitchen, and after they had gone in pur-
suit of English he left the place in safety.
The officers story was practically cor
roborated by James Massey, the proprietor
of the saloon. .' h|
1.-The officers have n1isstated the facts
concerning the escape Of the man who
helped me in that job" said the prisoner
when asked by the court what he had to
say in regard to the case Thereupon he
proceeded to tell his version of the story,
tending to show that the man who escaped
was a stool pigeon Of the detectives and
that this man had planned the robbery
in order to give the detectives a chance
to distinguish themselves. He intimated
that this mans escape was suspicious.
Mr.. Vasey denied the truth of this YER
sion Of the story and the court then pro-
ceeded to pronounce sentence. ..-.....
! William Early, convicted of grand lar
ceny in the second degree, was sentenced
| to four years In the penttentiary. He was
proved to have stolen a horse and buggy
| from the Parcher livery barn. T..
| Frederick W. Mack. indicted on two ac-
| cusations of forgery in the second degree,
Was given a reform school sentence by
the court. Judge Harrison examined the
prisoner closely and announced that, ow-
! ing to the fact that the young man had
pleaded guilty and that this was, he be-
lieved, his first offense. he would give
him a chance to reform and be a man.

defendants attempted to dissolve the plain

ders about the other; that the defendants
falsely informed. patrons Of Ogg. 6: Cole
that the Arm was dishonest ana irrespon-
Lsible; that the defendants used various
falsehoods in an effort to have these, pat.
rons cancel their contracts with -Ogg &
Cole; that the defendants even tried to
secure a lease that would dispossess the
plaintiffs from their offices. By false
promises and other frauds 1t was alleged
the defendants tried to take employees
from the service of the plaintiffs. And
finally, when Ogg & Cole secured from
