st. Olaf baseball team went down to de-
feat before the st. Thomas aggregation

1t took the full nine innings of first
class playing to decide the game and the
locals won by the close score of to 5.
The bunch from Northfield played in
hne form, but their one error was what
lost them the game and, perhaps, the
championship of the college conference

MAY SELL CENTRAL
TO ROCKEFELLER
Engineers Are Now Inspecting
Wisconsin Road for Stand
ard Oil Man.

Reports from New York say that the
Rockefeller interests are soon to alb
sorb the Wisconsin Central. Expert
railway engineers are now inspecting
the road and the final transfer of the
property will probably be made within
a few weeks.
A special dispatch from New York
regarding the absorption of the Central
by the Rockefellers. says:
New York, May 30-It is reported
here today that the Wisconsin Central
shops at Fond du Lac, Wis, have been
closed down that agents of the Rookie
fellerS interests may make a thorough
inspection, preparatory to the absorp-
ton of the Wisconsin Central by
Rockefeller. 1t is known here that con-
fdential agents of Rockefeller are now
inspecting the Wisconsin Central, but
their present whereabouts is not dis
closed by those here who know. 1t will
at least be q month before any definite
report is made to the RCcl1efellers of
the results of the inspection of the
Wisconsin Central properties.
At the Wisconsin Central headquar-
ters in Milwaukee it was denied yes
terday that a change in the ownership
of the line is likely. An executive ofFf-
cial said that there was absolutely no
truth in the reports from New York.
Despite the denial of the Central Off
Gals, railroad men in st. Paul think
that Rockefeller will soon gain control
of the Central. They say that if he Sc
cures control of the property the road
will be greatly improved and will prob
ably be shortened, so as to make it an
active competitor for Chicago passen-
ger business.

FREIGHT HANDLERS
STRIKE is UNCHANGED
sew York Docks Are Orderly on Ac-
count of Holiday.

NEW YORK, May ALPHABETICALLY
all work at the piers and docks af-
fected by the strike of freight hand
lers was suspended today, as the result
of the holiday. No trucks were NOV
ing, the strikers who were congregated
in the vicinity every day since the
trouble began were not present and
order reigned everywhere.
The only indication, that conditions
aut of the ordinary prevailed, was in
he presence of the big police detail
which has surrounded the piers for a
week past to guard the non-union
workmen and protect property.
As the steamers of the various lines
came in, nearly all of them with small
cargoes, the freight was quickly dis
charged by non-union workers and
preparation for the return trips to-
night were as rapidly begun.
President Curran, of the Interna-
tional Freight Handlers union, said
today that conditions from the strikers
viewpoint were perfectly satisfactory.

Manchester Loses Again.
The Manchester college baseball team
cinched its hold on last place in the in
tercollegiate league yesterday afternoon
by allowing the bunch from Carlton col

good ball playing in the middle of the
game, things went with rush both at
the beginning and at the end, at least as
far as Manchester was concerned they
seemed to be moving quite lively. but the
Mortified boys played a heady game from
start to finish and pounded Hoy all over
the lot for a total of eighteen hits, while
the Macs were content with six.
Hoy did some tall work in the strike out
business, however. sending fifteen men to
the bench without even a glimpse of first
base, but Lee was not far behind with
eleven strike outs to his record. The
fielding of the Presbyterians was very
slow, but only four errors were made and
