TRIUMPH, MINN.-Arthur Hilkens,
prosperous young farmer living two
miles north Of this place, was shot &C.
cidentally late yesterday afternoon by
his 11-year-old brother, who was car
rying two rifles from a buggy to the
house on their return from a hunt. The
lad was walking behind his brother,
and, not knowing that either Of the
guns were loaded, was fooling with the
triggers, when one of the weapons was
discharged, the ball hitting Hilken in
blade, striking rib, tearing thru the
flesh a distance Of ten inches and COM

lett armpit. Medical aid was at once
summoned and it is thought the wound
will soon heal. Il - E..... r ,@'"<',,

lSHIPBUILDING
AGAIN IN VOGUE
NUMBER, UNDER CONTRACT. IN
CREAsING WITH RAPIDITY.
Every Order for Vessels Restricts the
Market for the Independent Shipown-

! Special to Tho Journal.

Special to The Journal 49,
Duluth, Mimi, Oct. 22.-The anxiety
10 carry forward as much ore as pos
Bible continues, and vessels are doing
well. The ore rate has been advanced
8 cents, the grain rate from the head of
the lakes to Buffalo is now equivalent to
80 cents on ore and a large amount of
business is current. The number OF
new ships under contract for the COM
ing year is incl easing with a surprising
rapldity.
Mention has been made Of the proba-
probably four, to be contracted for by
the United States Steel Corporation, all
to be of the 10,000-ton type with hopper
cargo holds. No announcement has yet
been made, but it is expected that the
decision of the corporation will be Civ,
Duluth, has announced his orders given
for five 5000 to 1o,000-ton ships. The new
yardof the Great Lake Engineering
company of Detroit is full of, ship
orders, and can take no more, and most
of the yards of the American, Ship;
building company will be 'chuck up"
for the winter season.
In all not less than, 10000 tons of
steel will be required for the ships to
be built the coming winter and these
vessels will probably add 100000
gross tons to seasonal capacity of lake
der what Is to be done with all this
tonnage if the coming season is of rea-
Aonabled uration and continuity.
A feature Of contracting this fall is
that ore concerns like the Cleveland
Cliffs Iron company, the Buffalo and
Susquehanna Iron company, Pickands,
Mather & Co., and others Of like char
acter, are buying ships. Every order
from this sort Of buyer restricts the
market for the independent shipowner,
and the time must be rapidly approach
ing when shipowner without mines or
other sources Of tonnage under his con-
troll or operated by associated inter
ssts, will be as helpless as an indie
pendent Mesaba range railroad would
be today.
1t Is fact that some of the larger
owners Of tonnage see this and are ar
ranging to meet the conditions. Even
with its probable additional vessel ca,
pacity, the. Steel corporation will still
be the main reliance for independent
shipowners, and if it is logical for the
corporation to. add four ships, it is
equally as logical for it to add several
hines as MANY.

Wheat Available for Export In the

Special to The Journal.

Special to The Journal.
Winnipeg, Man, Oct. 22.-Much inter
est has been created in grain circles
here by the reported purchase by the
bushels of wheat to be ,milled in bond
at Minneapolis.
Even greater interest is taken in re-
ports that the Minneapolis n1illers are
figuring on buying wheat and paying
the duty of rs cents bushel. There is
some speculation as to what will be the
effect Of this Minneapolis buying. It
is likely to stiffen the Winnipeg cash
market some, which has been ruling
about twenty-five cents under Mime
apolis If Minneapolis starts after the
western Canada wheat surplus, the Ca
madam millesr and the, exporters will
soon become keen to get their share OF
the crop.
It is apparent that western Canada
has raised about 60,000,00O bushels Of
wheat and IS per cent of this isk of good
milling grade. The grades, here are
ern would be. No. 2 Minneapolis.
Of the whole western Canadian crop
there is available for export, after al
| lowing literally for home consumption,
about. thirty-fve thousand bushels:
| There is no reason. why large part of
! this surplus should not go to Mime
on to Europe in bond. =. -
AS result of the high price Of wheat
and the abundance Of cheap land in
western Canada that will raise from
| twenty to forty bushels Of wheat to the
acre, there is an almost unparalleled fall
rush of American land buyers to look
for farms or large blocks Of land. Con,
sidering this and the large amount of
railway building for next year, which
will open up much new country, it is
thought that next year will. witness the
largest influx Of American settlers west
ern Canada has ever had.

the path which, followed little far

push the search a little further. With

rumor that gold and silver had been
found in the old Indian mound created
sensation at Okoboji and thruout
northern Iowa, but it has since been
stated that the most valuable metal
found was copper. The. find consisted
of an Indian skull and cross STONES, tom
