FERGUS FALLS MEN
AFTER NATURAL GAS


Fergus Falls, Mimi, Oct. I8. Several
Fergus Falls business men have formed
an organization for the purpose of bor-
ing for gas in the vicinity of Foxhone
and Pelican Rapids.
About three years ago gas was struck
in boring well north Of Pelican Rap
ids. and burned for several weeks. "A
Duluth company leased the land there
and near Barnesville, shortly afterward
and made some explorations in the hope
|of finding coal. A few specimens were
found, but not enough to pay for min
ling, and the attempt was abandoned.
| Gas was struck the past summer il
three wells near Foxhome and in the
last one the flame burned to the height
|of several feet, and the gas continued I'd
flow until the owner walled it up and
|sent the: pipe deeper to secure water.
These developments have been the
Subject OF much discussion here, and
1.-THE business men have ina1ly taker
hold and will purchase a large drilling
Ioutft and begin sinking shafts in ths
early spring. In case the gas is foulld
| in sufficient quantity, 4 pipeline will bs
lrun to this city and the gas sold fol
| both heat and light.

ELIOT |; !. SETS j;
AN EXAMPLE
HARvARD'S PRESIDENT
HELPS THE REPUBLICANS
Numerous New England independents
Are Influenced by the Action of the
President of Harvard University to
Support Republican Cause. = !

Boston, Mass, Oct. I8s-~Presideut
Charles, w. Eliot Of Harvard uniyer
.sity. one of the most inHpential inde-
pendents in American politics, has an
nounced his intention to vote for
Roosevelt and Fairbanks and also for
Samuel w. Mccall. the republicans can
didate for congress III this district. srs
President Eliot has never been
party man and his choice is looked for
by thousands in New England. Four
years ago he announced that he favor
ed Mckinley, and while not going into
details as to his reasons, he inferred
that he had decided objections to
Bryan. He declined to discuss politics
today when asked to give his reasons
for declaring preference for Roose-
welt over Parker, and while exceeding
ly courteous to his interviewer he
could not be induced to amplify the
statement S@5
The simple statement that i am GO
ing to vote for Roosevelt and Fair
banks and for Mr.. McLall is all that
anyone has been authorized by me to
make and is all that / care to say
about the matter" said DIR. Eliot.
When it was suggested that he might
possibly, at later date, give his rea-
sons in detail he smilingly shook his
head and said it was not at all likely,
intimating that the period between now
and election day is too brief to make
such a course expedient
Since the Blaine campaign of 1884
President Eliot, as the head OF Har-
ward, has been looked upon as one OF
the most pronounced of independents,
and in more recent campaigns he has
ranked as a gold democrat. q
His action in breaking away from the
arti-imperialists and Parker men is
reasonably certain TO influence the So
called Harvard independent" a good
many Of whom have been waiting to
see what the political stand OF their
distinguished leader would be.
Ri. 1t is stated unofficially that President
Eliot has received letters from many OF
these independents asking him to de-
EclaTe himself on3the presidential ques-
ton, He. has now. done so after a very
careful .deliberation
1t is no secret that DR.. Eliot great
ly admires President Roosevelt per-
sonally, but it may be taken for grant
ed that neither his warm friendship for
the president nor the fact that the lat
ter is aHarvard graduate would in the
least degree induce him to vote for Mr..
Roosevelt unless he could also indorse
his party's policy.

DIVORCES
ARE BARRED
THE HOUSE OF BISHOPS
MAKES A STRONG RULE
"a Strong Probability That the House
Of Deputies VIII Not Agree With
tine Bishops ON the Proposed Change
of the Law.

Boston, Oct. IS. The house of bish+
ops. one of the Legislative bodies Of
the Episcopal general convention, tor
day adopted an amendment to the
canon on marriage and divorce, for
bidding the renlarriage of any di-
vorced person The amendment was
substantially the same as that which
was rejected by the house OF deputies
on Friday last. The action was not
unexpected as the sentiment Of that
body was well known. In fact SIM
liar amendment was passed at the
San Francisco convention three years
ago, but failed, as was the case this
year, to secure the support of the
other house. A conference of the
committees representing bishops and
deputies will be held to consider the
disagreement. but the leading clergy
men do not anticipate that the depti-
ties will recede from their vote of last
week.
In the house OF deputies today the
proposed canon providing a court Of
review, to which appeals may be taken
from decisions Of the diocese III courts,
MAS reported andlits essential features
adopted, though several minor provi-
sions went over until tomorrow
Among these was one grouping the
diocese and missionary districts into
seven provinces, each province to have
a court Of its own. The proposal to
establish a court of appeals, sort Of
supreme court, to be composed Of tbish-
ops of the church, was referred to

STILL FIGHTING WITH .
GREATEST FEROCITY

r Mukdef, Oct. @1S.-Throughout the
whole of Mukden there can be distinctly
heard cannonading in the south, which is
raging more fierce1y than on the pre-
sious days of the fight, which is now
entering the second week The desper-
ateness of the battle, especially near
sShakhe, has not been equalled since the
war began. ,Ehe feroci,y of the fight
ing has driven out of the minds of
the soldiers all thought of personal safe
ty, and the troops, living in an atmos-
phere of sudden death, have lost, all
Thought save to conquer. The losses on
both sides have been enormous, but
this is forgotten in the crowding. of
dreadful events upon each other. The
lighting still continues without inter-
