KILL THE MESSENGER
MASKED MEN ROB A TRAIN ON
THE SOUTHERN PACIFIC
At coPLEY, CAL.

Sacramento, Cal, April 2.-Three
masked men held up the Oregon
express, southbound, on the Southern
Pacific railroad at Copley, near Kes-
wick, killed w. ]. O'Neil. the express
messenger, and carried off the contents
of the express box.
The train is known as No. Is and
stopped at Copley, small station, for
water. AS the train came to stand
still three men jumped on and cut the
train in two, taking the engine and
express car down the track a short
distance. They stopped the engine
and demanded that Messenger O'Neil
open the express car. He refused,
whereupon they blew up the express
car with dynamite and deliberately
killed O'Neil by shooting him through
the head. The bandits then robbed
the car of its contents, but it is not
known how much they obtained.

To Eradicate scab.

A delegation of thirty stockmen
from the west of the Missouri river,
with DR.. Vanes, chief state veterina-
rian, and Doctors Hickox, Bond and
Smith, representing the government
bureau of animal industries, called up
on Governor White to outline plans for
the eradication of scab in the cattle
west of the Missouri river. The plans
proposed are the establishment Of
quarantine against other states, the
building of dipping tanks at Fargo and
Glendive to dip all cattle being shipped
into the state, and the erection of dip
ping tanks in unorganized counties,
and compulsory dipping of all cattle
in the infected district, and the es-
tablishment of quarantine officers
along the South Dakota line. Govern
or White agreed to do what was de-
sired on the part of the state.

NORTH DAKOTA NEWS
ITEMS OF A WEEK FROM VARIOUS
PARTS OF THE STATE.
Senator Mccumber Declares That Ele.
vator Operators Of the North.
west Are in League to Rob
the Farmers.

Sensational charges were made in
the United States senate by Mr.. Nc
Cumber of North Dakota, who, in urg-
ing the passage of his bill for federal
commission to grade wheat, made
statements rejecting seriously on the
operators of grain elevators in all the
cities of the Northwest.
He said the farmer was being robbed
of millions of dollars every year by the
elevator men by false inspection and
grading of wheat.
Specific instances were cited where
grain came in as having low grade or
no grade at all and went out of the
elevator as 10. northern The farm
er was paid for cheap, low grade
wheat, and the buyer paid for the best
on the market.
He charged that the official record
Of the elevators at Duluth and Supe-
rior would show that during the past
ten years 26,s66,O0O bushels more
wheat went out of the elevators than
came in.
This, he said, was simply dishonest
weighing, and by it the growers of the
grain had been robbed of $20,00O,00
One elevator at Superior was said
to have made clear profit of $780,
600 in one month by manipulation of
the grading of wheat.
The Duluth Board of Trade has de-
MED in toto the statements attributed
to Senator McCumber, regarding Du-
luth-Superior elevators.

OPPOSES HILLS PLAN
e. II. HARTMAN OBJECTS TO RAT.
ABLE DISTRIBUTION OF Sc.
cURlTlEs STOCK.

st. Paul, April 5.-A petition for
permission to intervene in the suit Of
the United States against the North
ern Securities company has been
served by E. H. Hartman, Winslow s..
Pierce and the Oregon Short Line, as
stockholders in the Northern Securi-
ties company, upon M. D. Grover, G..
w. Bum and George B. Young, attor-
neys for the Northern Securities COM
pany.
This action is brought by the plain
tits in order to be heard on the ques-
tion of the method of distributing the
shares of the two railroad companies,
the Great Northern and the Northern
Pacific. They contend that the dis
tribution of the stock should not be
made ratably, as proposed in cir
cular issued recently by the Northern
Securities company, although it is un-
derstood that Mr.. Hartman signed
the circular.
In their petition they pray that each
shareholder, or his assigns, who sold
shares to the Northern Securities COM
pany, should receive back from the
company the stock that he sold. Those
that sold great Northern to get Great
Northern and those that sold North
ern Pacific stock to get the same stock
back when a distribution is made.
E. H. Hartman is opposed to rat
able distribution of stock because un-
der the system Of distribution as pro-
posed in the petition in intervention
he will secure a controlling interest
In the stock of the Northern Pacific,
as he held the bulk of that stock.
