BALL TOURNAMENT At COLO.
Bitter Rival4 Among the Story coun-
ty Teams to be Settled September

Special to Times-Republican.
Nevada, Sept. 14.-Colo is arrang-
ing for ball tournament to be held
in that city on Saturday Sept. 18th.
The teams of the county have all
played around together, and a bitter
rivalry has sprung up among num-
Der of them. The Colo association has
taken advantage of this circumstance
and arranged for a series of games
that are likely to prove intensely in
teresting, as the contesting teams have
played together repeatedly before and
in all instances are uncomfortably
close in the outcome of their previous
games. At 10 o'clock in the morning
the Colo Red Sox will meet State
Center. These teams played four
games and ended with two each to
their credit, won on their respective
diamonds. They then went to Mar
shalltown and Colo won the third
game from them. At o'clock in the
afternoon Maxwell will meet Cam
bridge and these teams are in prac-
tically the same positions as are
Colo and the Marshall county town.
At 8 o'clock, or Immediately after the
second game, the two winning teams
will meet and this is sure to be a
battle royal. One hundred dollars
purse money will be distributed be-
tween the contesting teams. An i'm
mense crowd is expected.

GRAIN MEN MEET
Secret Meeting Held at Des Moines to
Consider Plans for Fighting Chicago
Concerns Which Handle Business
From Iowa Cooperative Concerns.

Concerns Which Handle Business
From Iowa Cooperative Concerns.
Des Moines, Sept. IA. A secret
meeting of representatives of several
| lines of Iowa grain elevators was held
| in Des Moines yesterday for the pur-
pose of perfecting the boycott against
| the Chicago firms who handle grain
from farmer or cooperative grain
| elevators.
| The meeting was in session the
greater part of the day yesterday in
room SOB of the Observatory building.
George H. Wells, secretary of the Iowa
Grain Dealers Association, it is said,
called the meeting as the result of his
| stormy interview with the Chicago
| firms last week.
| 1t was said that the forty or fifty
grain men assembled pledged them
selves not to ship a bushel of grain to
the Chicago brokers handling stuff
from the cooperative concerns and to
also use their influence in preventing
others from shipping to them.
The grain men are going about their
boycott silently, and last evening sew
eral who were seen at the meeting de-
MED all knowledge of any meeting.
| Not all of the grain men are in the
deal, the uproar from representative
grain growers over the state since the
announcement of the plan having
frightened them. The farmers, es-
pecially in communities where the CO.
operative elevators and the big lines
are in competition, are threatening
vengeance on the grain men.
The grain dealers claim that it is up
10 them to do something this year.
Many of the large lines have had from
one to a dozen elevators closed prac-
tically the entire time for the past two
years in consequence of the crop fail
ures. Few of them have made ex-
penses, they say.
The cooperative elevators have had
a rapid growth during the last three
or four years, and the old line elevator
men fear the competition.
A Des Moines man who recently
| returned from trip over the state said
that the feeling in many of the smaller
towns was intense over the action of
the grain men. In several places he
met representatives of the co-opera-
tive, elevators and they were especially
indignant.
The latter even went so far, accord
| ing to his story, as to threaten the or
ganization of a state society, similar
to the Corn Belt Meat Producers AS
ISOLATION with which to cope with the
grain kings.
They say that the large elevator lines
have tried to cause them trouble by
endeavoring to have the railroad COM
panies give them poor service in ship
ping the grain and in furnishing cars.
Again in other communities where the
railroads have refused sidetracks or
grounds for the construction of eleva-
| tors, the men claim the regular grain
| men use their influence with the rail-
road officials to deny the requests. This
trouble was overcome recently by the
farmers uniting with the state railroad
commissioners and compelling the rail-
roads to grant the concession asked.

In the fall of 1895 Icontracted that fear
full disease, Blood Poison. 1t gained such
Roadway that was forced to resign my
position and seek relief at Hot Springs.
After spending all the means I had went
to Memphis In less than three weeks I
was in hospital, and after nine weeks OF
suffering was discharged as cured: In
less than month every bone in my body
seemed to be affected and felt as if they
would break at the least exertion. Again
I was compelled to resign, and l returned
to the hospital for a seven weeks stay.
When I came out was advised to try
farming When l first went on the farm
prevailed on the only firm who handled
drugs to get me one dozen bottles OF S. S.
S. At that time both of my hands were
broken out with blisters and was covered
with boils and sores. In the meantime my
druggist had gotten two dozen bottles OF
s. S. S. for me and began its use, and
after taking the thirteenth bottle not a
