Interest in this man hunt in prog
ress in the vicinity of Eau Claire, Wis,
took on a local form this morning
when Sheriff M ortJ Mcmillan of Eau
Claire, and Bert. Olson, a. chance; ac-
quaintance of Lon Smith, the murder
err, called at police headquarters and
asked to inspect, the ,rrogues' gallery
pictures. After carefully examining
the pictures, Olson declared that
Smith was not. among them and went
to st. Paul to inspect the pictures
there. .srse s"gtEl6 ~
II met Smith in Eau Claire the
afternoon of the murder" said Olson
to T IN o urn al, land he wanted
ring that he had. He said if I could
get SOS for the ring he would give me
$40. I refused to monkey with the
ring, but pawned the watch for him.
He said that he had won the jewelry
in poker game. He told me that he
had just come from Montana and that
he had been a. waiter in a restaurant
there and had followed gambling as
a side issue. T was with him for
about three hours and left him just
before he took the train on which he
shot Sheriff Harris '".- -.
Sheriff McMillins is confident that
Smith has eluded his pursuers and
that while militia and sheriffs
posses are securing the woods in st.
Croix county, the fugitive has escaped
and is far out Of the country. It was
because of this belief that he decided
to bring Olson to the city to identity

POLICE LOOKING
FOR TWO BODIES
Foul Play Suspected in Disap-
pearance Of Ruth Teachout-
Cascsius Holly Missing.

Two cases Of probable suicide were
reported to the police to-day.
Ruth Teachout, II years old, 422
Third avenue s, disappeared from her
home about week ago and diligent
search by relatives and friends has
faile dto reveal her whereabouts. This
morning her hat, purse and parasol
We're found on the river bank near the
Tenth avenue bridge. No one near
there remembers having seen here
there and her parents fear that she
may have taken her own life, as she
was of a moody disposition. It is also
feared that the young woman may be
the victim Of foul play.
The other case is that of Cassius
Holly, 1914 Twenty-sixth avenue N
who met young boy living near his
home yesterday and gave him a note
to take to his mother. The note con-
tanned all his money and a message
saying that no one would see him
again.
The young mans mother is positive
that he has committed suicide, as he
was in love with young girl who, he
said, had refused to marry him.
The police are searching the river
for the bodies.

FOUR YOUNG WOMEN TIRE OF
THE LONG PERIOD INVOLVED
IN CONVALESCENCE AFTER
DIPHTHERIA.

Somewhere on the north shore of Lake
Minnetonka, not far from Spring Park, are
four young women who have escaped from
the quarantine restrictions Of Minneapolis
and have gone there to recuperate after
an attack Of diphtheria. The young worn-
en- are daughters of James M. futile, 1911
Hawthorn avenue.
About two weeks ago the health depart
ment was notified that there was a case
of diphtheria in the Tuttle home. An in
spector found one young woman suffering
from the malady and promptly quaran-
tined the house. Within the next week
three other members Of the family were
afflicted, and the quarantine continued.
Yesterday the department was notified
that the quarantine had been violated and
an inspector found that all four of the
patients had tired of the restrictions and
had decided to go to the lake for the
summer @.- ..-
Further Investigations showed that the
four young women had purchased tickets
to Spring Park and had rented the Plant
cottage. 's@.
The local health department has mott
fed the health officer at Spring Park of
the circumstances, and it is likely that
the young women will again be quaran-
tined. :...

JUDGE HOLT, HIGH HOOK
HE HELD THE HARRIET RECORD
FOR A MINUTE AND THEN
ROSSMAN TOOK TT. -

Eye gods, it doth amaze me"' quoth
Judge Andrew Holt, as he pulled a.
33-inch pickerel out Of Lake Harriet
Saturday. But a moment later
Charles A. Rossman beat him out by
good 2 inches.
Such are the catches which are Of
every day occurrence on the lakes
around the city. Time was when it
was thought that the park lakes were
fshed out. A. J. Mcleod at the IIar-
riet boathouse declared to-day that
more fish were caught last week than
there have been for the past three
years. The pickerel are so thick that
the Cos boats sent out yesterday could
scarcely navigate, and that is not a.
fish story, he is| willing to swear. E.
J. Richmond caught a string the other
day that will back up any assertions.
Fishing is not a dead sport at Har-
riet by good deal.
The same facts are in evidence at
Lake Calhoun. C. F. Wood at the pa
vilion at the boat landing thinks moth
ing of landing half a dozen fine pick
erel or a score Of crappies before
breakfast. He is willing to bet two
to one that he can pull out as many
fish in Calhoun in a given time can
be pulled out anywhere. Rob Fosberg
is living witness Of the biting quail
ties Of the scaly denizens of the lake,
having landed strings that he Is afraid
to tell his family about.

REYENUESAFTER BANKERS
HANDLING OF WHISKY CERTIFI-
GATES HELD TO NECESSTTATE
THE TAKING OUT OF LIQUOR
LICENSES. .

Revenue officers are investigating
a phase of banking which interests
Minneapolis banks and which devel-
oped in Boston. AS the result Of an
investigation begun by Judge w. H.
H. Emmons, chairman of the Boston
police board, the national banks of
that city may be required to take out
wholesale liquor licenses. These banks,
he has been told, accept whisky Ger
tif1cates as security on loans, and If
the obligations are not met sell the
certificates to liquor dealers.
These certificates" said Judge
Emmons, "are worth so many barrels
of whisky and in my opinion the
national banks which sell them vio-
late the liquor law"
Local banks have little of these Sc
curities to handle since the only
whisky distillery here went out of
business. However, if they find it
necessary to sell such securities to
realize on loans they are believed to
become thereby liable to government
revenue tax as dealers.

REDUCED RATES
WILL HELP MPLS.
LUMBERNIEN PLEASED OVER AC-
TION OF RAILROADS.
New Schedules May Cut Into Business
of the Northern Mills, but Will
Prove Beneficial to Southern Firms
Consumer Is Also Benefited.

Strange as it may seem reduced
rail rates on lumber from the north
Pacific coast will help the business OF
southern Minnesota mills and jobbers.
1t may cut into the trade of mills in
the northern part of the state. Mills
and jobbers in this section do no bust
ness west of the MinnesOta-North Da-
kota boundary. Mills in the Crooks
ton, ST. Hilaire and Bemidji districts
ship into North Dakota, which, un-
der the new rates, becomes tributary
also to Spokane and the west. The
rate will enable Minneapolis yards to
fill orders more easily with western
fill the bill. Dimension stuff comes
from the west nowadays and the lower
rate, accruing without doubt to the
advantage Of the consumer, will make
dimension stuff cheaper.
AS result of recent conferences be-
tween the northwest shippers and the
Great Northern, Northern Pacific and
about 10 per cent in the rates on
dressed spruce and hemlock lumber
will be made from north Pacific coast
points.
The rate on rough fir lumber from
these points has been 40 cents to Min
dressed spruce and henlock cents
higher. The lumbermen asked the
railroads to put all lumber in the same
class, and the railroads have agreed.
No decision has been reached by
the traffic officials Of the lines of the
north Pacific coast regarding rates on
merchandise and other freight from
the principal cities Of the north Pacific
coast, in comparison with rates from
Minneapolis and Omaha. Wholesale
merchants and jobbers of Seattle,
Portland, Spokane and other cities
have asked for a reduction in rates
eastbound to a line midway between
the Pacific coast and the Missouri
river

STARTLED NEW WORKERS
John ForseII Sang Swedish Hymn In Mar
tins Cafe.


An incident recalling some Of the short
stories by Richard Harding Lhvis &C.
Cured the other day during the Lund
student singers stay in New York: After
a reception in the Press club Herr John
Forsel, the famous barytone, and some
Of the members of the university chorus
had accepted an invitation to dine with
New York friend at the Cafe Martin on
Fifth avenue. The host of the party had
demanded that the orchestra should play
the Swedish equivalent of "God Save the
King" which request was followed.
When the first strains Of the familiar
melody were heard from the balcony
Herr Forsell sprang to his feet and be-
fore anyone realized his intention one Of
the finest Of contemporary barytone
voices was heard vibrating thru the vast
room. The cafe was filled with throng
of noisy but fashionable New Workers at
dinner. A hush fell over them which
lasted for few seconds after the beauti-
full notes had ceased. Then storm of ap-
plause broke forth and the chivalrous
singer was literally covered by rain Of
flowers. Herr Forsell was besieged by
strangers and friends to sing another
song, but he srnilingly refused as he sat
down to enjoy his dinner.

The second week Of popular comic
opera opened Monday night with a splen-
did presentation of Flotow's Martha by

The production was handsomely
mounted in every detail and the perform

chorus of fifty voices being exceptionally
well drilled, while the principals, some
of the best known artists on the operate
stage, appeared to splendid advantage.
This company is by no means small or
inferior. On the contrary, the perform

able surprise and have given the very
best of general satisfaction as is
evinced by constantly increasing at
tendance.
