BY MISTAKE AND
LOSES HIS MIND
Fort Dodge Man Desiring to Be
Congeniai on His Way to Min
neapoIis Becomes Confused
as to Bottles With Bad Result

John Ross, whose home is at Fort
Dodge, Iowa, is in critical conditios
at the city hospital, suffering from
poisoning. A half emptied bottle of
lipiment found in his pocket seems to
account for his symptoms.
Ross, with two companions. was COM
ing to st. Paul on a train yesterday
having got on at Albert Lea. 1t is said
that the three were drinking liquor and
that Rose accidentally drank half OF
the bottle of liniment which he had
in his pocket.
When the train arrived at the union
depot at st. Paul yesterday Afternoon
Ross was in an unconscious condition
and his two companions left him in
the car. The brakeman finding the
man deserted, lying in stupor in the
seat, carried him out and had him
placed on truck
The depot authorities summoned the
patrol wagon, which took Ross to the
Central station. An examination by
DR.. E. A. Meyerding revealed that the
man was suffering from the effects of
poisoning. A half empty bottle of lin
iment was found in the mans pocket.
He was zen TO the city HOSPITAL,
where he runained i'll critical condi-
ton last night.
The contents of the bottle upon being
analysed We're found to contain 1auda-
mum and iodine.

Commercial club to proceed at once to
raise the money necessary, with the
understanding that the subscribers

council to provide in the next tax
budget for the reimbursement.
DR.. Ohage was well pleased with the
result OF the meeting and the interest
taken in the matter by those present.
He anticipates no trouble in raising all

necessary, the banks of the city would
advance the money upon the passage
by the council of resolution to repay
the money when the next budget is
made up.
As result of the meeting last night
the Commercial club will take steps at
once to raise the necessary funds and
it is thought the plans will be under
good Roadway within few days.

HEAVY RAINS BREAK
THREATENEDDROU
ghowers Are General Through
out Minnesota and the
Dakotas.

Whatever fears there may have been
as to the safety of the growing crop or
spring wheat in Minnesota and the
Dakotas were dispelled by the re-
ports made by the weather bureau and
received from other sources yesterday:
Up to noon yesterday the month OF
June was one of the dryest since the
st. Paul weather bureau was estab-
lished, the precipitation having
amounted to only 1.02 inches. which is
but a little more than one-fourth of
the average June rainfall of 1888
inches.
Unfortunately there is no means of
comparing the rainfall in the country,
as the daily reports do not come from
the same stations as the weekly and
monthly statements, from which the
averages are made up. and their pub
LEGATION is delayed by the department
in Washington too long after date to
make them of much use for the pur-
pose of current comparison.
There is no doubt. however. that
while some parts of the Dakotas have
had more than a normal amount of
rain. the Red river valley above Moor
head and all the country tributary to
the 500 line west of Glenwood has
had very much less than the average.
Rains reported for the tWenty-fouf
hours ending a. m. yesterday morn
ing were comparatively heavy in North
and South Dakota, but only moderate
in Central and Southern Minnesota and
Wisconsin. The showers extended
northwestward into Montana and into
the British possessions west of Mani
toba. Northern Minnesota reported
practically no rain. At Moorhead the
record was merely .02 of an inch. The
heaviest rainfalls during the twenty
fAt4 I 81 A1f n11
S. D., and 1.04 at Williston, N, d.
Yesterdays morning weather and
crop bulletin, issued at a. M, showed
that the dry spell had been ended by
almost general rains. From the Off
Gals Of the 500 line came the report
about II a. m yesterday that rains had
been general all along that road.
