LOWRY FIGURES
IN TIMES DEAL
Purchase Was Made Thru Him,
but He Denies Political
Significance.

One of the transactions incident to
the sale Of the Minneapolis Times by
the Goodfellow interests came to light
late Saturday afternoon when two
deeds were filed transferring property
worth $4,000 from Thomas Lowry to
William E. Goodfellow. Since the
Thurston management was superseded
by Albert Dollenmayer, there has been
much quiet speculation as to the in
terests cooperating with the latter to
control the Times.
The appearance in the deal OF Mr..
Lowry, who is already quietly inter-
ested in another Minneapolis news
gest political possibilities, inasmuch
as the latest acquisition has not rec
ord of earnings which would make it
particularly attractive IN a purely
business way Mr.. Lowry and his
friends, however, disclaim any such in
tent in the deal. They say the pur-
chase was made thru him merely as a
will hold no permanent interest.
The property covered by the deeds
Park. The first deed describes the
following property: Eight lots in
block 8, eight in block 4, nine in block
10; thirteen in block IA; ten in block
Is; eight in block. 10; eight full lots
and portions of three lots in block %,
all in first division of Remington Park.
The consideration for the sixty-four
full lots and three portions was $46,-
$50. .
The second deed transferred the fol-
lowing forty-eights lots, all in the sec
lot in block g. one in block 8, twenty
four In block 5, thirteen in block II

TWO FOURTH FATALITIES
DEATH COMES TO BOY HURT BY
ROMAN CANDLE AND TO AN
OTHER INJURED BY ExPLOD-
ING POWDER.

William Drake, 12 years old, vic
tim of Fourth Of July explosives, died
last night at the city hospital after
a long fight with tetanus.
The boy Is the son Of Mrs. Mary
Drake, 1908 Oakland avenue. He was
shooting fireworks at his home the
night Of the Fourth, and a Roman
candle exploded in his hand. The
burns did not look serious at first, but
soon after a case of lockjaw devel-
oped and nothing could relieve him.
Another fatality caused by the eel
ebration is that Of little Emil Loi-
selle of Little Canada. He died yes
terday at the St. Paul city hospital
from burns caused by the explosion
of a can of powder in his mothers
store at Little Canada on the Fourth.
He was pouring some powder out OF
the can when spark from a fire

THIS YEARS CROP
WAY BEHIND TIME
NEW RYE MARKETED THIS TIME
LAST YEAR.
TO Date, However, Rye and Barley,
the Early Grains, Have Failed to
Appear, Tho Some Cutting Is In
Progress ~ New Wheat Offered
.1To Arrive

Grain men who looked for the first
new crop stuff to show up on
change this morning were a little dis
appointed, for there was nothing in.
A year ago at this time new Minnesota
rye had begun to move and new bar
ley, altho not yet received, was in
transit to Minneapolis from southern
Minnesota and southeastern South
Dakota.
Last week barley cutting began in
the more advanced counties, but on
the whole the harvest is backward.
Rye cutting has been in progress for
some time and the first Of the new
rye and barley ought to turn up here
soon. It is predicted that the gen
eral movement of coarse grains will
not be early or heavy. T. M. McCord,
the largest local receiver of rye, does
not look for big northwestern pro-
duction, but expects it to fall under
last year.
!. Barley is a big crop, especially in
South Dakota. Commons has reports
showing not only large yields but a
high quality. Of all grain crops,
however. barley is most uncertain and
down the quality materially.
New No. l northern wheat was Of

this basis would make delivery OBJ
HsaIOry Wltnln twenty days and in
view of the backwardness of, the crop
and the weather uncertainty, it is
considered dangerous to make heavy
commitment in that way, as in case
of failure to effect delivery the seller
would have to make good by turning
to the local cash market, already
greatly influenced by the scarcity OF
old wheat. The fact that new wheat
is offered ito arrive indicates thai
some at least feel certain of being
able to cut wheat, that will grade No

twelve days.
AS to the general movement o.
wheat, it will undoubtedly be late
While the early cars will soon be
rushed in, no movement worth noting
will begin before Aug. Is, and rains

and South Dakota counties where the
crop is the most advanced, would de

PEDDLERs' LICENSE VALID
Recent Supreme Court Decision Spurs the
Police to Action.

Police to Action.
Since the supreme court has handed
down it's decision holding the license or
dinances of Minneapolis valid, the law
will be enforced impartially against all
peddlers who do not take out their licenses
promptly .-
The Peter Jensen test case has been
in the hands of the supreme court for
several months, and during that time the
city officials have been rather lenient with
the pedders. Jensen is a farmer and
was arrested for selling melons grown on
his own land. He held that he had a
right to sell his own produce without "a
license. The supreme court held that he
had not The court also decided that the
$50 was not more than the necessary
amount to regulate the business, to pre-
vent it's becoming a nuisance. g=E.s.
Now that the city is backed by the
law few days will be given the delin-
quent peddlers to take out licenses, and
after that the police will begin to make
arrests. There are several peddlers now
doing business under special permits is
sued by the mayor, but it is probable
that these will be revoked. If they are
not the state grocers' association will
swear out warrants and the permits will
be Of no value. A-...
