THEY COME TO BUY
Merchants From the Northwestern
Towns Take Advantage of Elk
cursion Rates.
Register Already Shows List of rs
Some Are From Chicago
Territory.

Although the rate for the first of the
merchants fall excursions into Minneapo-
lis has been in effect only five days, more
than seventy-flve merchants, from all
parts of the tributary territory, have
taken advantage of the one and one-hfth
rate made to visit the Minneapolis whole
salers in quest or bargains.
This number is considered promising,
since the rate made thru the efforts of
the twin city jobbing houses is, practic-
ally continuous until Sept. 26. Not the
least interesting feature of this years ex-
cursions is the large number of women
taking advantage of them. Most of them
are milliners who formerly went to ST..
Paul for. their fall trading. but who are
now coming to Minneapolis to visit a
wholesale millinery house recently opened
here. .@..~..
In the list of those who have registered
with Secretary Frank Forbes, at ZIG Bank
Of Commerce building, appear the names
Of Fond du Lac and Watertown, Wis,
people. These towns are undeniably In
Chicago territory and the coming of Wis
consin people into the Minneapolis mar
ket is regarded as credit to the low rates
secured by the wholesalers.
