REGULATES TRAFFIC
War Department Will Control
St. CrOix River Navigation.

The war department of the United
States having made military observa-
ton of the ST. CrOix river, is con-
WINGED that the floating of timber and
logs is the principal method of navi-
eating that majestic stream. But In
order that the seamen who float thereon
may not interfere with the jolly tars
that also drive and sluice" as well as
float, the war department has issued
an impressive bulletin of regulations
to govern the floating of loose timber,
logs and sack RATS (sO-called) Of tim
Der and logs and other methods Of nav
igation on the st. Croix river, Wis
cOnsin and Minnesota, above Lake st.
CrOiX."
In pursuance Of the authority con-
ferred by act of congress, approved
May 8, 1900 entitled An Act, ETC." the
department declares:
l. During the season Of navigation,
from May Is to Aug. 81, the full natural
run of water in the river shall be per-
mitted to flow between l o'clock a. m. on
Thursday and 4 o'clock p. m. on Sunday
of each week; and during the time be-
tween l p. m. Wednesday and p. m.
Sunday of each week no logs shall be
sluiced out of the Nevers dam.
2. Except during the period above
mentioned the parties engaged in handling
logs, upon the river shall have the right
to Sluice, drive and float loose logs and to
regulate the flow of water in the river as
may best suit their convenience, all rea-
sonable precaution being taken to avoid
log jams.
8. These regulations shall remain in
force until modified or rescinded.
(Signed) Robert Shaw Oliver
Assistant Secretary of War.
Until the year 1900 the American
army took no interest in the upper st.
Croix. It's 'navigators' were allowed
to struggle and, perchance, to perish,
In unendipg combat with the cant-hook
and the peavey. But the department
1nterfered and established ''regula-
tons" for the season of 1900 and 1901.
No conditions were imposed the follow
ing season nor for the summer of 1903.
The present rules differ from the
previous code chiefly in that the lat
ter insisted upon "a full natural flow
of water from midnight Tuesday to 6
o'clock p. m. Friday, instead of from 1
p. m. Thursday to p. m. Sunday.
For any violation Of this fearsome
taboo the act of congress prescribes
a fine Of not less than $500 and not
more than $780, or imprisonment for
not less than thirty days and not more
than one year.

In the Treatment of HuInOurS

CUTICURA REMEDIES.
4 Remarkable Testimonial from
a Most Intelligent and
Trustworthy Lady.

A tumor came on my neck and In q
day or two it was as large as half an
orange. was very much alarmed for
fear it was malignant. My friends
tried to persuade me to consult nv
physician; but dreading that he would
Insist on using the knife, I would not
consent to go. Instead, got Cuticura
Resolvent and Cuticura Ointment. I
took the former according to direc.
tons, and spread a thick layer of the
Ointment on the swelling. On renew.
Ing 1t would battle my neck in very
warm water and Cuticura Soap. In q
Few days the Cuticura Ointment had
drawn the swelling to q head, when IL
broke. Every morning it was opened
with large sterilized needle, squeezed
and bathed, and fresh Ointment put
on. Pus and blood, and q yellow,
cheesy, humorous matter came out. In
about three or four weeks time this
treatment completely eliminated the
tumor. The soreness that had ex-
tended down into my chest was all
gone, and my neck now seems to be
perfectly well.
Z" About ave or six years ago my sis.
ter had a similar experience, used the
Cuticura Remedies with magical effect.

before the board of pardons and asked
for a pardon for Joseph Films, more

Childs was member Of the board, but
it was refused at that time.
"The reason ask for the release of
White is that he is dying of consump-
tiOn,' said Gen. Childs. 1.-THE physi-
clan of the prison has sent a letter ex-
planning the condition of Whites
health, which is precarious.'

The Republican neWspap ers are do
ing a lot of needless worrying about
the attitude of Aid. Dahlquist. of the
Third ward. They have been going to
good deal of trouble to say that
'Dahlquist is sore" "Dahlquist is sulk-
ing" and like statements, but reports
come up from the Third from reliable
sources show the falsity of the state
ments. Dahlquist is giving the whole
Democratic ticket his undivided sup
port and his work is telling in that

were more like Dahlquist in the ward it
would be unanimous for the Demo-

W. F. Smith, a Kenmare IN. D.
banker and coal operator, is at the
Merchants. Smith is a member of the
state normal board for his state and
takes a lively interest in Republican
politics. He said yesterday that while
the gubernatorial contest in his state
is apparently between Sarles and Por-
ter, the western slope of the Missouri
country may form combinations that
will seriously disarrange the plans of
the Valley politicians. His home
county Of Ward is exceeded in the
number Of delegates in the Republican
state convention by but one county in
the state, and that is Cass.

and one of the veteran newspaper men
of North Dakota, is stopping at the
Merchants. "The recent municipal
elections in our state may determine
the contest in the Republican party

yesterday. "E. Y. Sarles lost out in
Fargo, broke even in Grand Forks
and his friends won out in Minot The
fight has developed into staying
match between Sarles, of Hillsboro,
and E. f. Porter, of Mayville. Gov.
Frank White is practically out of the
race, though he is nominally staying
in the race to prevent the entrance of
third man to cOmplicate the game.
Jud Lamoure, the Pembina chieftain,

nomination of fellow townsman for

vention will be held at Grand Forks

to the state court, and from their con-
senting to the jurisdiction of the Unit
ed States court. The appearance and
answer of the Northern Securities COM
pany in the United States court
amounted to nothing, because that
court did not have jurisdiction.
The attorneys for the state took the
chance all along that the case might
be remanded by the court on it's own
motion. The supreme court did re-
mand it, and thus the state has gained
nothing, and all the money that it has
expended on the case has gone for

FUNSTON EXPLAINS.
Swimming of the Bag-Bag by Himself
 Magnifled.

Portland, Ore, May 22.-The follow ing account of the swimming of the Bag-Bag river by General Funston at Calumpit, Philippine Islands, April %, 1S99 and the swimming of the Rio Grande the day following by two sol diers of the Kansas regiment, has been given out by General Funston:
 "A body of four thousand or more Filipinos who were on, the far side of the Rio Grande, had been harassing the American forces. On April 26, 1899, General Funston. accompanied by a skirmishing party, swan the Bag Bag river, a small stream about 100 hundred feet wide, which is a tributary of the Rio Grande This act has been con- fused and nagnified into the swimming of the Rio Grande the following day., April 27, by two soldiers of the Kansas regiment, which preceded the routing of the 4,0Oo Filipinos by forty-five Am erican soldiers.
 ''These soldiers carried a line with them with which they drew across a heavier one. To the latter a raft was fastened and drawn across. When for ty-fve soldiers and General Funston had been ferried over, the detachment routed the F'ilipinos.
 II am glad to present the facts as they are and clear the matter up.'

SHOT DOTN BY 4 WOMAN.
Canton, O., Manufacturers Life Taken
 by Discharged EmpIcye.

Canton, Ohio, May 22.-George H. Taylor, aged about thirty-three years, single, was shot and almost instantly killed at his store, the American Wool en Mills company, soon after midnight. Some time after closing he returned to the store for an overcoat. He was shot at the door by some one just inside or in the vestibu1e. About all he said be- fore he died was that woman did it.
 Grace Battorf, who says she is the wife of George H. Taylor. manager of the American Woolen Mills company tailors, murdered in his store, is in jail on suspicion of the murder.
 Circumstancial evidence that points against her is that she quarreled with Taylor on Thursday and was discharg- ed from employment with the company. She admits that when he said he would shoot her if she bothered him any more she replied: Mot if I shoot you first She claimed to be Taylors legitimate wife, but repeatedly said that their marriage ceremony was a mere mock cry and was performed in a Cleveland hotel in March of last year by a fake" minister.
 Another woman, Lillian Taylor, claiming to be Taylor's real wife, in- voked the aid of the local police sev- eral weeks ago, asking that Taylor be shadowed with reference to his rela- tions with other women, and docu- ment found in Taylor's room, by infer ence, acknowledges this wife and his responsibility for their child's support.
 That the fatal shot was fired by some one who entered the store after it had been closed for the night, and was there when Taylor returned for his overcoat, is conceded, but whether this person was a burglar or not the authorities disagree. Taylor had conducted a pros- porous tailoring business here for the past eighteen months. Miss Battorf is prominently connected in Ashtabula and Canaldover.

 New Britain, Conn, May 22.-The New Britain police made statement a few days ago to the effect that speed ing of automobiles along the fine strip of road in what is known as the Stan ley quarter of the town would have to cease, and to-day they followed up that statement by placing twenty-five auto mobilists under arrest. They were in- formed that they must appear in the police court Tuesday to answer to the charge of speeding their machines at excessive rates. Deputy Sheriff Cowles was the chief actor in this afternoon S raid on the fast ones. He stationed a man at one point along the road and he himself a quarter of mile away, took the signal, the dropping of a white handkerchief from his co-operaton, who would signal when he believed that one of the machines was going at too fast a clip. One after the other the drivers were held up, and among them were S. z. Poli. the snowman, and Alex Stanley. Two auto drivers re- fused to stop and their numbers were taken.

JOHNSON WANTS FOLK.
Reasons Why Missouri Man Would Make Good Presidential Candidate.

Cleveland, May 22.-Mayor Tom l..
 Johnson of this city in an interview to- might told why he would like to see Joseph w. Folk of Missouri the demo- cratic nominee for the presidency. Mir. Johnson said that according to his view of the political situation MT. Folk would be a harmony candidate; that is he would unite the factions that now ad- here to either the Parker or Hearst in
 terests or the principles represent ed by these men. Folk was said to be Ia free man as regards any entangling alliances in factionalism. He would be agreeable to MT. Hill and MT. Cleveland and would be endorsed by MT. Bryan, Mayor Johnson believes. The mayor said that his good opinion of MT. Folk did not necessarily mean that he fav- ored his nomination. There are other men, he said, who more nearly repre- sent his ideas and stand for what he does, but these men would be sure to meet opposition from factional inter- ests in the party and would be weak as candidates. Mayor Johnson said he did not believe Mr. Folk was seeking the presidential nomination; that he was as good as elected governor of Mis- souri, but no man has ever turned aside the nomiation to the presidency and de- clined to be the leader of great party.

SEVEN KILLED IN EXPLOSION
DISASTER IN NOVELTY FACTORY
 IN FIYDLdY, O.


 Have Been Blown to Atoms-Ten of
 the Injured May DIe-Plant Running
 Sunday to Fill Fourth of July Orders
 List of Dead and Injured.
 Findlay, Ohio. May 22.-As a result of an explosion in the two drying rooms of the Lake Short Novelty company's plant here to-day, seven persons are known to be dead, five are so seriously hurt that recovery is believed to be impossible, and twelve or fifteen are injured badly. From reports of the physicians ten of the less seriously in jured may die as result of blood poisoning from the potash that was driven into their bodies.
 The dead are: Joseph Sherwood, aged twenty-one; Jay Sherwood, twenty four; Edith Dillon. seventeen; Dean Shaw. eighteen; Mary Snyder. twenty two Estella Decker, fifteen, and Frank Grant, twenty
 The injured who, it is believed, can- not recover: Maggie Logan, nineteen, injured by flying debris; Thomas Book, arms and legs broken and internally injured; Claude Shaw, twin brother of Lean. neck severely injured and ankle broken; Fife Peterman and her brother Roy. Two employees are missing and are supposed to have been blown to atoms.
 The Lake Shore Novelty works plant covered nearly ten acres of ground in the southwest part of the city and em- ployed nearly two hundred men, women and children. Railroad torpedoes and Fourth of July explosives were manu- factured.
 Owing to the large rush of orders the officials of the plant requested the enl- ployes to report for duty to-day. About thirty compiled with the request.
 This morning the residents of Findlay were startled by two explosions that shattered windows throughout the city. The concussion was felt for miles around. Two magazines in separate rooms at the novelty works exploded simultaneously. The exact cause of the explosion is not definitely known. It is surmised that one of the Sher- wood brothers, who were the only per- sons in the drying rooms, dropped a large box of torpedoes, but this cannot be confirmed.
