RUSH GRAIN TO MARKET
State Inspection Department
Tries to Provide Cars.

State Grain Inspector Radford, who is
in Topeka today from Kansas City
says the movement of new grain is now
becoming rapid, and the grain inspec-
ton department has been correspond
ingly increased. The quality of the
grain is good, most of it grading as
No. ,. Most of the receipts thus far
have come from along the Santa Fe in
the southern part of the state.
we are doing all we can to prevent
a shortage Of cars said Mr.. Radford
today. so far as the grain inspection
department can do it. We inspect the
grain as quickly as possible so that the
cars can be unloaded and sent back for
more wheat Heretofore it has been the
custom to inspect in the morning the
grain which came in the night before.
around, to the proper elevators late
that afternoon, it would be unloaded the
next morning. and it would be sometime
the third day before the car would be
ready to go back for more wheat.
Now we have Just completed ar
rangements with tho big Midland ele-
vator on the Union Pacific, which re-
ceives the majority of the wheat which
comes in on that line, to have the grain
switched directly to the elevator when
it comes in, it is inspected the first thing
in the morning, the cars are unloaded
Immediately and are ready to go back
to the wheat country the same after
noon. We save at least tWenty-four
hours IN hoiulnS cars TINS way nave
the Midland elevator in order to eXpe-
dite this inspection.
THE flood knocked out the yardage
capacity of the roads at Kansas City
in bad snaps. The Rock Island and
Union Pacific have got their yards into
normal condition again. but the Mis-
souri, Pacific and Santa Fe have not yet
entirely recovered. We have a hard
time inspecting grain that comes in over
the Santa Fe. train comes in during
the night which is perhaps wheat and
half something else. 1t is then switched
wherever it is most convenient, and in
the morning the company turns over to
US the description of the cars contain
ing wheat, and we have to hunt them
up AS the Santa Fe has nInety-five
tracks all the way from half a mile to
three miles long, and as the wheat is
scattered all through these 1t is no easy
matter to find them"

Father Kneipp's Cure.

In the early morning all the patients
walk barefoot through the wet grass.
Those who have been here longest go
without shoes and stockings all day.
am told it is delightful to walk bare
foot in the new fallen snow. Women's
skirts reach only to the ankles; men
wear knickerbockers. The only foot
gear ALLOWED at Woerishofen is the
leather sandal, classic and comfortable.
Newcomers begin by wearing the SAN
dial over the stocking, then the stocking
is left off for half an hour-an hour
and finally for the whole day. An hour
and a half after breakfast and dinner
a cold douche is taken. The blitzguss
lightning douche) is for people who
have been taking the cure for some
time The rumDf (body) douche is COM

the women's bath attached to this hotel

That ordeal over, the dripping victim
scrambles hastily into her clothes-dry-

dry and warm. The exhilaration which
follows is indeseribable. In the exercise

Next Meeting Place.

Washington, Aug. 12.-The Internal
tional Typographi union today decid-
ed unanimously to hold its meeting in
1904 in ST. Louis.
The decision to make St Louis the
next place of meeting was reached with
out opposition all other candidates with
drawing.
While the question of selecting a place
for the next meeting was in progress
Delegates Gilmore of Montreal and Pow
ell of Ottawa, gave notice that those
cities would be candidates for the honor
IN 1905. They stated that there is much
opposition in Canada to the Internation-
al union and expressed the opinion that

strengthen the cause.
The union began it's session today by
ordering the removal of all circulars
and other literature distributed in the
meeting hall which does not bear the
union label
The convention resumed considera-
ton of the report of the committee on
laws. The first proposition taken up
was recommendation prohibiting
members of subordinate unions from
voting on a change of the scale of prices
unless he has been a member for at
least six months. This suggestion was
a suggestion excluding from member
ship in subordinate unions ma chine Op-
orators. who have not served an ap-
premiership a. printers. This negative
action was taken because the point is
already covered by existing law. There
was considerable discussion of an
amendment suggested by Delegate Tay-
lor. of Tacoma, Wash, for the recogni-
ton of the rules of priority in the en-
ployment of substitutes as regular
printers. There was a general recogni-
ton of the fact that a better regula-
4 ton than that which exists is desirable
! but the suggestion was antagonized as
I impra cticable by the laws committee
and the proposition was voted down
! The convention adopted an amendment
/ to the general laws suggested by Dele

SUES ELECTRIC LINE.
LeavenwOrth Woman Wants
$4,000 Damages.

Leavenworth, Kan, Aug. 1.-THE
Kansas City, Leavenworth electric road
is again being sued for damages
Yesterday Anna Kline instituted suit
in the district court, for $4,000 dam
ages, against the electric road.
In her petition. after the usual in
troductory, the plaintiff states that on
December 2, 1902, she bought ticket in
Kansas City, Kan, and boarded a car
for LeaTenworth. When the stopping
places here at Third and Delaware
street, was reached, she accompanied
by her 5 year old son, arose to leave
the car. 1t had been raining out of
doors, she states. and the car platform
and steps were muddy and slippery.
Then she alleges that as they were
leaving the car the conductor allowed
the passengers to crowd forward against
her and her son. She declares in her
petition that it was the duty of the con-
ductor to have kept the crowd back and
also to have assisted her and her young
son to alight from the car.
But instead of this, the petition de-
clares that the conductor made no effort
to do this and that as result of his
negligence, she and her son were crowd
ed down on the steps, which had been
made muddy and slippery by the rain,
and that she was thrown violently from
them to the ground. The fall being very
hard and of great force. The result of
the ran DelnS, the pGllllOIci C1dlAatr, liiS
paralyzing of her right arm and leg and
the breaking of the fifth and sixth ribs
in her body, and that by the extreme
force of the fall the broken ribs were
forced into her right lung, causing an
internal hemorrhage.
All these injuries she declares were
permanent and caused her great physi-
cal pain and mental anguish, and she
therefore prays judgment for $4,000
against the railroad company.
In support of her suit against the
company Mrs. Kline, cites the rules of
the electric car company which says
that the conductor whenever it is neccs-
sary shall help woman to step up into
or down out of his car. also that every
precaution must be taken by the con-
ductor to prevent accidents to any OF
the passengers. For the neglect of The
agent of the company to observe the
rules she holds the company RESPONSE

Close the Grant.

The Grant mine, at Bull, prop
erty of the Interstate Iron Co., un-
der charge of Capt. VIM. White, was
closed down on Friday last and the
pumps pulled. The mine has for
warded a limited amount of ore
during the season, direct from
shaft, but large stockpile, mined
during the past winter and spring
in the opening and development of
the property, is still intact and will
be shipped later.
The closing down of this mine af-
fects about sixty men and, in con-
nection with the recent closing of
the Sharon mine, is felt by the bust
ness element of the village, but the
opening of the property of the Con-
sumers Ore Co., on the northwest of
the northwest of section p, 58-19,
about half mile east of the village,
together with the Kinney and other
mines working a short distance
west, will continue to give the place
a fairly substantial backing, with
promise of much better than was
given at the time of the plating of
the townsite two years ago.

Pulling the Pumps.

At the Commodore mine, where a:
great amount of ore has been shown
by drill work the past season and
where slight amount of active
mining has been done, the pumps
are being pulled this week, the ac-
ton denoting the immediate clos
ing down of the property for an
indefinite period.
The Commodore is a Corrigan,
Mckinney & Co. lease, being owned
in fee by w. H. Yawkey, of Detroit.
1t was at one-time one of the prin-
cipal mines in the Virginia district,
and is still supposed to contain a
large body of high-grade ore, but
the closin g down of the mine and
the action of the water in the old
workings during several years of
idleness has practically rendered
the old shafts valueless, and the
mine will likely have to be reopen
ed from the surface when work is
again commenced at the property.
