Dairy Commission Fears Crook.
ed Work at Fair Contest

The Minnesota butter to be entered
in the national butter scoring contest
to be held at St. Louis this month will
be shipped Monday evening, and while
the Minnesota article is said to be
even better than usual, it is said that
the states butter reputation may suf-

the part of some of her neighbors.
Commissioner w. w. P. Mcconnell
will leave early In the week for St.
Louis to protect the interests of his
exhibit, for it has come to the ears
of the commissioner that two nearby

any cost, and it is rumored that at
tempts will be made to capture the

CANNON LOSES SUIT
AGAINST FORESTERS
Judge Jaseard Grants Defendants Mo-
ton for Judgment

Another chapter Of the legal fight
within the United Order of Foresters
was closed yesterday, when Judge
Jaggard, of the district court, filed an
order granting the defendants motion
for judgment in the suit brought
against the order and a number of its
members by James w. Cannon. Judge
Jaggard upholds the contention of the
defendants that the complaint filed by
the plaintiff did not show sufficient
cause for action. Aside from the order
itself, the plaintiff specifically named
H. L. Southworth, S. C. Olmstead,
George T. Woolsey and Louis Feesan
as defendants.
The suit is one of a number Of SINH
lar actions that have grown out Of
bitter differences between the officers
and members of the United Order of
Foresters in Minnesota in their fight
for the control of the order, the suits
having been in the courts for more
than year.
Some months ago the defendants
sought to have the court direct a iudg-
ment against the plaintiff, but the
plaintiff opposed the motion and was
granted further time to prepare an
argument. The arguments were made
before Judge Jaggard some time ago,
the matter being taken under advise.
ment until yesterday, when a decision
favoring the defendants was filed.

AUTOMOBILE RUNS
INTO STREET CAR
DR.. Philemon Roy and Com
panion Narrowly Escape
Death in Collision

DIR. Philemon Roy and a companion
named Johnson narrowly escaped death
when an automobile driven by DR.. Roy
crashed into a Grand avenue car at
the intersection of West Seventh and
ST. Peter streets shortly before o'clock
last evening. The auto was complete
ly demolished, both occupants were
thrown into the muddy street and each
of them injured, although not serious
ly, both being able to walk away.
DR.. Roy was thrown almost under
the wheels of the street car, and scores
of pedestrians who witnessed the ac-
cident, expected to see him cut to
pieces. Fortunately his body cleared
the track, although he was badly
bruised. After reaching his Office in
the Grand block he complained of in
ternal pains.
His companion Johnson, who declin-
ed to give his first name, was thrown
for some distance. His clothing was
ruined and his right leg was badly
wrenched.
The collision is said to have been the
result of the failure of the brake on
the automobile to work properly. The
machine, which was one-seated run
about, was purchased by DR.. Roy only
a few moments before the accident,
having been bought from Johnson,
who was DR.. Roy's companion in the
auto at the time of the accident.
DR.. Roy was driving the machine, but
had not become familiar with the levers
and brakes, and was coming down ST.
Peter street at a slow pace.
AS he approached Seventh street, a
west-bound Grand avenue car reached
the crossing and the doctor attempted
to stop the auto. The brake failed to
work, and realizing the danger, DR.. Roy
signaled to the motorman to stop the
car, but before anything could be done,
the auto crashed into the street car
and both men were thrown out.
The auto struck the street car at
the front trucks, the front wheels Of
the machine mixing with the front
wheels of the car. The auto was twist
ed and smashed beyond repair and the
men were thrown to the pavement, the
doctor under the car. Spectators ran
to the assistance of the men and helped
disentangle the wrecked machine from
the car trucks. 90
DR.. Roy said last night that Mr..
Johnson had not informed him that the
brake on the auto was defective and
he did not learn of the fact until he
attempted to make the stop. When he
found the brake would not perform it's
functions it was too late to steer the
auto clear of the car. The machine
was badly damaged, the front part be-
ing smashed into splinterS.

JUDGE OVERROLES
BLOCKS DEMURRER
State Treasurer Must Defend Action
Brought Against Him by Land Firm

In the suit brought against Julius H
Block, state treasurer, by. Barnett &
Errett, an action to compel Mr.. Block
to pay to the plaintiffs something more
than $1,000, alleged to be due them for
engineering a land deal, the plaintiffs
won point yesterday. when Judge
Kelly, of the district bench, overruled
the demurrer to the complaint and held
that the case should be tried upon it's
merits.
Mr.. Block was charged by the plaint-
ifs with double dealing" in a deal for
the sale of North Dakota land, by
reason of which, the plaintiffs claimed,
they were defrauded out of their COM
mission of SITS. The defendants de-
INJURED on the ground that the COM
plaint did not set forth sufficient causes
for action, but Judge Kelly held against
the demurrer, and Mr.. Block will now
have to defend the action in the courts.

BANK EXAMINATION
ASSESSMENT UNEVEN
Effort May Be Made to Change sys-
tenn of Collecting Fees

The payment by the state banks Of
the annual fee eXacted by the state to
cover the cost of examination by the
state bank examiner has caused a re-
vival of the talk in favor of an amend
ment to the law regarding the fee. The
annual fee for banks of less than $780,
600 capital is $40; from $4,000 to
100000 capital, $40, and for banks
whose capital does not exceed $780,
600, it is $75 per annum for the ex-
aminationS. Remittances from banks
and bankers are being received by the
state auditor and are covered into
the state treasury. There are seven
trust companies paying $25 each for
state examination, and one Minneapo
lis concern, whose capital stock is very
large. pays $50 Said state official
yesterday:
1.-The theory Is wrong. The Minne-
sofa law requires fee based on the
amount of the capital stock. What
should be done is to base the amount
of the fee on the actual amount of
money in the bank. Often a bank with
a capital of $4,000 has in capital, sur
plus, undivided profits and deposits
twice the value of some other bank
with many times the capital stock of
the smaller bank. The work in an ex-
animation of a bank is by no means
regulated by the capital stock, but
upon the volume of business which
ture will probably be asked to change
the plan to the Wisconsin system,
which proportions the fee to the total
of the banks business"

Tuesday and sell $45O,O00 Of certificates

1928. The certificates bear per cent
interest.
Work on the interior of the new cap
itol is progressing very satisfactorily,
according to Secretary F. E. Hanson,
of the commission, and there is every
reason to expect that the legislative
end executive departments will be able
to occupy their quarters in the new
building by Jan. l. Work is being
pushed, but the interior finish is nee

ITALIAN FAILS AS
COLLECTOR OF WAGES
Uses Sewer Stake to Enforce Demand
for Money and Is Fined

1t cost A D. Valero, an Italian la
borer, $3.50 to make an unsuccessful
attempt to collect $14.5O from P. H.
Thornton, a contractor. Valero is said
to have attempted to persuade Mr..
Thornton to pay the money by using
a sewer stake.
Valero had been employed by Thorn
ton on the construction work of the
West Seventh street sewer and asked
the boss for $14.5O, which amount he
claimed was due him. Thornton re-
fused to pay the amount, whereupon
the Italian attacked him, it is charged,
with a sewer stake. Valero was ar
rested, and when arraigned in the po-
lice court yesterday, was found guilty
of assault and fined SIS. Thornton
added to the blow by refusing to pay
Valero the $14.50, which left the Italian
$3.50 worse off.
