Grover
But the nature of trusts, their legal
status, he explained, was generally in
yolved in obscurity, for no combina-
ton of men could legally agree upon
minimum price for selling their goods
or upon a maximum output of the
goods they manufactured. All such
agreements were void, and they al
ways had been been void. If the cor

his privileges, he could promptly be
regulated by law. The people had it
always in their power TO effect the
regulation. The fear of trusts was a
mere bogy; the question of trusts was
not political.

1t might often be unwise. Whether it
was desirable or not depended always
on the circumstances.
As to the sales of American manu-
factures at a lower price in foreign
countries than was charged at home,
the public should remember that the
proportion of such sales were but one
half of per cent. Moreover, the pos

NEW YORK, June 14.-According to

lieved to have been brought about
partly by the recent cuts in steamship
rates, and the third class passengers on
every incoming vessel are being watch
ed with the greatest care.
Nearly 5000 immigrants arrived on
three steamships today, and the fa-
cilities at Ellis island are being so
severely taxed that the use of tents to
care for those who are being detained
has been suggested.

BURNS HIS WIFE,
SHOOTS HIMSELF
Frederick Nelson, Crazed by
Patent Medicines, Also
Uses a Rope
Special to The Globe

Special to The Globe
BECKER, Mimi, June 14.-Frederick
Nelson is dead, suicide, and his aged
wife, who was first murdered by the
insane husband, has been so burned
that scarcely any portion of the body
has been recovered from their burned
home in Santiago township, nine miles
north of Becker. Coroner TrumbulI; of
Elk River, has gone to the. scene of
the murder and suicide To ill health
and the continued use of patent medi-
cines by Nelson are attributed the mur-
der and suicide
Frederick Nelson a Scandinavian
farmer about seventy years old and a
resident for thirty years of Santiago
township, had been acting queerly Of
late. Continued i'll health and the con-
stant use of patent medicines, which he
had taken for months in large quanti-
ties in the hope of relief, are said to
have unseated his reason. Today his
daughter, Mrs. Peter Sorenson, living
in Becker township, four miles distant
from the family home, came to visit
her parents, and Nelson threatened to
kill her and then drove her from the
farm. Realizing that her father was
insane, she went for help, and a short
time later men working on a road about
a mile from the Nelson farm buildings
saw fire. They hastened to the farm
to find the house in fames One man
who looked through the window saw
the dead body of Mrs. Nelson lying on
the floor of the kitchen. Nothing could
be done to recover the body and it was
almost entirely consumed. 1t is sup
posed that the husband shot her and
then fired the house.
The machine sheds near by were
also burning, and it is thought that
Nelson fired this building after shoot
ing his wife and setting fire to the
house.
Find Murderer's Body
In a stable the neighbors found the
dead body of the old man. He had ar
ranged a moose by means Of a rope de-
pending from rafter,- and then taking
his shotgun had inflicted a mortal
wound in his breast, falling into the
moose, and was hanging quite dead
when found. The body was warm.
1t is said that Nelson had an insane
idea that he was being prosecuted and
feared attacks from unknown men. His
continued i'll health was aggravated by
drugs, which he took without any ref
erence to their adaptability to his case

PIERRE, S. D., June 1.-THE Leslie
correspondent of a Fort Pierre paper
indicates the conditions in that Sec
tion by the following items:
''Old ranchers- in this section are
farming or gardening from five to sew
enty-five acres each this year, and re-
port their corn, oats and garden stuff
to be looking fine.
ED Squirting has put in five acres
of alfalfa on land near the Cheyenne
river, which is now in bloom and will
yield good crop this year. The roots
easily reach down to water, promising
a permanent and profitable crop.
Frank Carson, who has been en-
ployed as an Indian teacher for thir-
teen years, reports his garden and 9TH
er crops doing well. and that every in
dication is for fine yield"

tions in the heart of the old range sec

make the most of bad situation. Our
mates will meet at the earliest opportu-
nifty and make arrangements along the
line of their own ideas and present them
to the Lake Carriers association for ac-
ceptance. In the meantime the mates
will remain where they are until this
arrangement is made and agreed upon
by the two associations.
1t is understood that the Lake Car
riers' association will soon come to an
agreement with the mates and that the
full fleet of the Lake Carriers associa-
ton will be gotten under way within a
very few days.
The Lake Carriers association was
willing to pay last years scale of
wages, but this was not agreeable to
the masters and pilots because of al
legged great difference in the wages of
men doing exactly similar work.

The above nominations were made
at the Democratic convention today.
John P. Hopkins, of Chicago, will sue
eeed himself as chairman of the state
central committee.
Result Is Anomalous
William r. Hearst received from the
convention what the Hopkins faction
which completely dominated the pro-
ceedings, knew he wanted, and Mr..
Hearst's campaign managers who as
pired to control the Democratic party
in this state received what John r.
Hopkins thought was coming to them.
The Illinois delegation was instruct
ed to vote for Mr.. Hearst at st. Louis
as long as his name remained before
the convention.
Mr.. Hearst's campaign managers,
who attempted to ride into power by
the aid of his name, received no con-
sideration whatever from the eonven-
ton. The Harrison party, which came
solely from Chicago and was pledged
to the support of Congressman James
r. Williams, was routed completely.
Carter H. Harrison was unseated as a
delegate and took train for home
without going near the convention.
Both his faction and the Hearst party
were as nothing compared to the
strength and skillful management OF
the convention exhibited by Hopkins.
