prepaid ticket No. 7179 is not on
the passenger list"
This message to the A. E. Johnson
company, agents for the Inflated
steamer Norge, which sank off Scot
land, June %, is good news for Mrs.
George A. Dahl Of Minneapolis. 1t
means that Mrs. DahTs sister and
family Of six did not sail from Chris
tiansand on the Norge and that they
are safe.
But the official list will contain i'll
tidings for many family in the north
west. Tickets sold in the west are
registered in Minneapolis only by
number and it is impossible to get any
definite passenger list except thru the
New York office.
The local office noticed one peculiar
return made by the agent at
Trondhjem, Norway, in acknowledge
ment Of a ticket sent there for deliv-
cry. He seemed to have a sort Of pre-
monition of the disaster and wrote
Perhaps you will be interested in
knowing that the following thirty
eight persons engaged tickets for the
Norge" This is information he has
never offered before.

GENERAL CROP CONDITIONS
Harvest Is Slow In Southwest, Owing t
Rain.


Rain.
Washington July 5.-The weather bu-
reau's weekly summary of crop conditions
Is as follows:
In the lake region and central valleys
the week ending July was unseasonably
cool and unfavorable for rapid growth,
but highly favorable temperatures pre-
vailed in the southern states and in the
Rocky mountain and Pacific coast districts.
In the districts east of the Rocky noun
tains the rain as whole, was well dis
tributed and ample, too much falling in
the lower Missouri and Red River of the
North valleys. Portions of the south At
lantic and east gulf states continue to
need rain, altho droughty conditions in
these districts have been largely relieved.
Rain is much needed on the immediate
north Pacific coast.
In Nebraska and Kansas corn has
grown well, but in the central and eastern
portions of the corn belt growth has been
slow as result Of cool weather. .
Winter wheat harvest has made slow
progress in Missouri and Kansas, and dam
age to wheat in shock is reported from
the first1named state Complaints of rust
are also received from portions Of Mis-
souri, and from Nebraska and Kansas. East
Of the Mississippi river better harvesting
weather has prevailed, and this work, as
a whole, has advanced satisfactorily, hav-
ing begun in the upper Ohio valley. VIM
ter wheat harvest has begun in Oregon,
and will soon begin in Washington.
III the northern portion Of the spring
wheat region cool, wet weather has
checked rapid advancement of spring
wheat, which however, is generally doing
well. Over the southern portion of the
spring wheat region the reports indicate
an improvement over the previous week
An improvement Is also reported from
Washington, but in Oregon the crop is
heading short and light yields are ex-
lpected.
The general outlook for oats is promis-
| ing, bat this crop has suffered from ex-
| cessive moisture on lowlands in Mime
sofa and in portions of Missouri, Ne
braska and Oklahoma

CASE FOR S. P. G. A.
Peculiar Form of HumOr Cost Per-
.,l petrator $40 at Excelsior.

One of the 5000 visitors at Excelsior
yesterday had a regular bovine Fourth
Of July celebration. His playful little
time cost him $40, but he did not
seem to regret the fun.
A farmer was leading a Jersey
muley COW, which he had just
bought, thru the street yesterday.
With the idea of frightening the COW
and giving the owner little fun, the
joker tossed a dynamite f1recracker.
It went off and neatly blinded the
cow in one eye. The owner dropped
the rope, jumped into the crowd and
nabbed the celebrant.
you'll have to pay for that cow"
he said II just bought it and It's no
good now"
How much do you want for your
cow"
Forty dollars
The money was forthcoming at once
off the top Of big roll and the ex-
uberant offender against the peace OF
the village walked off with his new
purchase.

The POLICE ASK
WHO IS SCHULTz?'
HIS CARD FOUND IN RUTH
TEACHOUT's PURSE.
There Are Several Named Carl Schultz
in the Twin Cities, But the Police
Are Satisfied That None Is the Right
One "A Smelling Theory.

Did Carl Schultz, whoever he may
be, have anything to do with Ruth
Teachout's going to Minnehaha Falls
on that fatal afternoon when her muir
dered body found it's way into the
Mississippi river?
Or was it simply a freak of fate
that placed one of his calling cards
in the unfortunate girls purse and an
other on the bank near where her
purse and parasol were found?
Answers to these questions are now
being sought by the Minneapolis po--
lice. Schultz card, along with that Of
Ravenda Schultz, was found in the
gilrs purse, and officers have card
bearing his name that was picked up
near the spot where the unfortunate
girls belongings were found.
When Thomas r. Kane, attorney for
Ramsey county, was questioning the
members of the Teachout family who
We're witnesses at the inquest, he asked
each if he knew Carl Schultz. Each
answered in the negative, but it was
not then revealed that a card bearing
that name had been found on the river
bank. Since then, officers have been
trying to learn who Carl Schultz is,
but no trace Of him has been found.
The name appears twice in the Min
Eeapolis directory and once in the ST.
Paul directory, but the police are con-
fident that none Of the three IS the
man.
49,. Possible St. Louis Clue.
One thing that may throw light
upon the case is the fact that on the
back of Schultz card is st. Louis
address in the same handwriting as
that in which Carl Schultz name is
written on the face Of the card
Whether this is memorandum made
by the girl or whether it Is Schultz
address remains to be seen. Inquiries
will be made at the st. Louis address
The fact that the girl cal1ie'
Schultz card, but had never t>'t. hcl
relatives that she knew such man
Inquiry at Fort Smelling today failed
to reveal any Carl Schultz as a mem.
Der of the garrison.
Sensational Smelling Rumor.
That Ruth Teachout was murdered

and that the officers desire to inves

public. They admit, however, tina

VAUDEVILLE AT WORKS
Players Assisted in Enlivening the
Day for Prisoners.

Judging from police court records
the celebration yesterday was the most
orderly in years. There was little
drunkenness and the officers were
troubled with but two fights. Forty
four men pleaded guilty to intoxica-
ton today, but this is a small list in
light Of the fact that all arrests have
been held over since Saturday.
At the workhouse the inmates had a
holiday and a continuous vaudeville
performance by the more accomp-
lished prisoners furnished the enter
tainment. William Robb, who is in
for conducting a gambling joint and
his old theatrical mate, Frank Vine
gar, sent for their musical instru-
ments and took charge Of the pro-
gram. There were several good spe-
cialty numbers by prisoners who have
see circus life.

CONFERENCE rs DESIRED,
Milers Would Meet Trunk Line Managers
to Discuss Rates.


Eastern trunk line managers have as
yet made no reply to the protest against
the cut on grain rates to the seaboard,
sent out last Friday. Meanwhile the cut
rates are i'll effect and wheat is being
moved eastward all-rail on a basis to
make export flour shipments impossible.
If no reply is Forthcoming, mills will have
to close again. The millers asked that
the new grain tariffs be recalled or that
the -four rates be lowered proportionately
This would mean reduction Of about
cents On flour. The roads are known
to be averse to doing this and would be
more likely to restore former wheat rates
than to cut on flour. l.. T. Jamme for
mer assistant general freight agent of the
Omaha road now secretary Of the Millers'
Federation, arrived this morning and was
in consultation with the millers and local
freight men.
An effort will probably be made to draw
the eastern trunk line men into confer
ence in Chicago with view to effecting
an equitable adjustment. d &
