KING EDWARDS AGENT
LOOKS FOR BARGAINS

What has King Edwards private
agent been doing in Minneapolis? Ed
mund G: Walton, the kings loyal sub
ject, refused absolutely to reveal the
purpose which has moved the mysteri-
Gus man who has been in his company
the last few days. From the nature
Of the agents Investigations, however,
going about with the local realty agent,
it appears that King Edward seeks to
place his spare pocket money in safe
spots. Minneapolis fair fame as "a
point for investment resulted in the
kings orders to his trusted agent to
visit the city and, personally weigh the
advantages of placing few pounds
and pence at the low market price Of
real estate which prevails. !,
Mr.. Walton visits England annually,
and thru his business connections has
had opportunity to make it known to
court circles that for real estate invest
ment on the present values, Minneapo-
lis cannot be beaten in the United
States, and that whatever foreign in
vestments were to be made from the
royal personal treasury would wisely
be placed in his adopted home city. /

BILL" RUSSELL RETURNS
PROMINENT FIGURE UNDER
AMES' REGIME ENDS HIS LONG,
VOLUNTARY EXILE

Entirely unheralded William Russell,
better known about town before and
during the Ames administration as
Chip Russell, appeared in Mime
apolis last evening. While the first
Ames investigation was at fever heat,
Bill - left the city and had not since
been heard from. That was two years
ago, and he now returns with the idea
that the old trouble had all been dis,
posed of
Russell was Ames' appointee to the
board Of charities and corrections, and
a close friend of the administration
His actions were never considered
closely by a grand jury, and no Indie
ment was ever returned against him
The statute of limitations does not pre-
vent such an investigation for three
years, as the statute does not run while
he was out Of the state.
What effect the return will have is
unknown. 1t is surmised that he may
be used as a witness in the coming tria

MINNEAPOLIS SLEUTHS
ARE AFTER P0C0CK


. Unusual interest has been aroused by
the offer of ST. 500 reward for the cap
ture of Albert Pocock, the alleged en-
bezzler from England, and no less than
a dozen persons called at police head
quarters this morning to say that they
had seen the young man at various
places in the last few days. .,.
Two Of these reports seemed cred
ibic. and the officers investigated. One
was that such a. man had been hanging
around North Town Junction since last
night, apparently to catch an outgoing
train. ! Detective Louis Hanson went
there this forenoon, but the man had
left, and if he is the much-wanted
Englishman, he is probably out OF
reach Of the Minneapolis sleuths by
this time. y
Hanson then went to Robbinsdale on
another report, but found that the. sus:
pect was a Woodworking German and
much shorter than Pocock.

Minneapolis millers are not the only
ones interested in importing Canadian
wheat. Chicago is now in the game,
and at noon the first trade Of the kind
ever known in that city was recorded,
RoseE haum Brothers buying from Har-
ris, Scctten & Co., on sample, $4,000
bushels OF Manitoba wheat to come to
Chicago
This attracted much interest here.
Roscnbaum supposedly bought it for a
miller. Duty Of % cents bushel must
be paid. 1t is claimed the wheat grades
higher than ordinary No. l northern,
and that it can be brought in profit
Iably. Ia.
Minneapolis millers are wondering
whether any of the oriental flour bust
strike here during 1904, or whether it
will not be felt until after Jan l. None
OF the mills has any inquiry to report.
Some time ago, Henry Little said big
Japan flour demand was a later posi-
bility, but that it would not be felt here
until the Pacific coast mills had first
had a chance at it. .. -. I'D.

A non-partizan committee composed of
ten republicans and ten democrats in
dorsed the worthy candidates for the

candidates so indorsed We had nc
trouble in making the selection, and as
result, elected every one OF our can
dldates. except one constable. That
shows that the people want information
concerning the character. of the men
for whom they are voting. One Of the
evils OF our present system is that we
have so many candidates each election
that the voters are unable to- investi-
gate every one and cannot vote intelli.

FIGHTING CONSUMPTION

made to get them into the hands of
every resident of the city, so that all
may learn how to deal with the |'white
plague.'

asks, and then it answers in this way:
"Because more people die of consump-
tion than. from any other disease. In
the United States sover 100000 die

minute two persons fall before the

Such an Inspection.

- ,Et ;
The state of Minnesota, thru it's at
torney general, WI. Donahower, has
brought suit to compel the Great
Northern to-permit.7a full examination
of it's books by the public examiner
for: the purpose of determining what
sums should be assessed under the gross
earnings tax. +. 4s
The action is the common. one in
mandamus. The papers were taken TIC
Judge W. L. Kelly Of Ramsey county
today, and the Judge signed an order
granting an alternative writ return
able on Dee.s5. The complaint reviews
the organization of the Manitoba and
Great Northern roads, the numerous
branches and: feeders of the Great
Northern, system and the. statutes gov.
erning the payments of taxes. The
document then alleges that the man
agement of the defendant road prac
tees arbitrary and disproportionate di
vision of rates and fares on joint bust
ness, so that large amount of the
gross earnings escape taxation.
It is alleged that the Great North
ern owns stocks and bonds Of Other
roads and corporations which escape
taxation, altho the earnings and in
comes are used in extending, repairing
and maintaining the road.
1t is formally alleged that a demand
has been made for an examination by
Mr.. johnson, and that the demand has
been met by a refusal.

Thirty Losses Reported to the Police
This Month"; .-.

Oyercoat thieves have begun work
earlier than usual this year and thirty
coat thefts have been reported to the
police in the first fifteen days of No
vember. All were taken from restau-
rants and hotels and semi-public places,
and in most cases the losses were due
to carelessness. ..1....
All of the coats were in good condi-
ton and heavy showing that those who
took them We're looking out for long
winter: None Of the garments so far
have, been placed in the pawnshops,
which also shows that the thieves are
keeping them to wear or have pawned
them elsewhere.
