Lee Norton, general manager Of the
j. 1. Case Co., OF Racine, Wis. ar

brief visit with the company's man

the extensive warehouse operated by
the company in this city. The gen.
tlemen were met at the train by
Manager Jelly and former manager,
j. r. Morrow. In conversation with
Mr.. Bull he stated that he was we'll
satisfied with the splendid business
that had been worked up throughout
South Dakota and that the Case line
OF goods was having a large sale and
covering a wider territory than ever
before. The business i'm this state,
Mr.. Bull said, had increased to that
extent that the company thought it
necessary to establish other head
quarters for the distribution of the
machinery. The gentlemen have just
paid a visit to WATERFOWL and Aber-
deem. at which place new warehouses
will be erected of the same capacity
as the Mitchell house. Heretofore
the business at these two places has
teen handled on a smaller scale.
Messrs. Bull and Norton left

pect TO return to this state during
the duck hunting season, going, per-
haps, to Pukwana, and Mr.. Morrow
agreed to have a lively party made
up for them when they come out.

Independent, under charter to the
Osaka Steamship Company to carry
food from Japan to New Chwang, has
been held here by Che Foo commits
sioner Of customs. The Independent
put into this port to discharge passepS
gers and local freight. The conxHs-
sioner claims that if the steamship
is allowed to depart, the neutrality of
China will be violated and he has de-
manded that the contraband among
her cargo be landed here. Notwith-
standing official denials, there is every
reason to believe that the Independent
carried large sum of money, the max
1mum estimate upon which is $5,00O,-
600, destined to pay General Kuroki's
army.
A Japanese torpedo boat destroyer
arrived here last night at 10 o'clock,
having come over at top speed from
