HIGH RATE
Insurance Men Give Informal
ton to Special Committee

That the fire waste of the country in
prosperous times is the cause of high
rates of insurance, and no great reduc-
ton in rates. is possible until the waste
is reduced, was the declaration of A.
w. Perry, secretary of the st. Paul
Fire and Marine, before the special in
surance legislative investigating COM
mittee last night.
The committee spent an Informal
evening with the fire insurance men.
Mr.. Perry told of the workings of the
western union board of Chicago, to
which all compact companies in the
central west belong. He said seventy
five company, managers are members,
and that the board looks after rates
and the forms of policies. There is no
division of profits and no penalties for
violation of agreements, except expul-
sion. He had known but one company
TO go out of the board in twenty years.
Local rates were made by state and
local boards. He told of two raises of
20 and % per cent since 1898, but all
the insurance experts present declared
that the average rate for the state is
lower than ten years ago.
The cases of Revere and Comfrey
two villages in southwestern Minneso-
ia, were called to the attention of the
insurance men. In Comfrey, with no
water protection, the rate is $3.50, and
in Revere, with a water works system,
the rate is $3.50. W. /. Fisher, secre-
tary of the state board, said that local
reasons must exist. His maps at Min
neapolis would show the causes
Speaker Frank Clague said that rates
at Lamberton. where he resides, are
higher than before the town had in
stalled a good water works system.
MI Fisher said that a standard stream
could not be thrown by the Lamberton
water works.
w. d. Lowry, state agent for the
home insurance company of New
York, said his company had not made
a dollar on Minnesota business out
side the three large cities in six years.
Mr. Lowry urged the creation of a fire
marshal for the state and promised it
would materially decrease rates. His
company had made money only on
dwellings, brick buildings and APP
proved special hazards. He said that
an improved moral tone of the state
that would convict incendiaries would
do more to lower rates than any other
one thing.

ASK FOR INCREASE
Ramsey Commissioners Strike
for Raise In Pay

Ramsey county commissioners want
$3.50 a year salary In addition to the
certificates of good character given
them before the Ramsey county house
delegation by Webster Wheelock, Of
the Good Roads association yesterday.
Mr.. Wheelock presented a bill to the
delegation advancing the annual sala
ries of the commissioners from $500 to
$3.50, and supported 1t by the statement
that the commissioners are all honest
and conscientious men who, in spite of
their meager salary allowances, will
not attempt to make anything ION the
side.'
The proposal for the increase in the
pay of the commissioners was made
when it was learned that a proposition
to allow the board s175 for carriage
hire to inspect country roads would not
be allowed by the legislature because
of objections by the Hennepin county
delegation. James r. Hickey explained
that while the new code now gave the
Ramsey county commissioners $500 a
year, the st. Louis county delegation
in the legislature would insist on the
figure being raised TO $500, and in this
event the bill offered by Mr.. Wheelock
would be injuring the financial pros
poets of the commissioners. The bill
was referred to the county attorney for
an opinion

Boy and Girl Sweethearts Are
Joined i'm Wedlock

Yesterday afternoon in his office in
the county court house, Court Commits
sioner Henry B. Gallick joined in mar
riage Forest B. Posey of Stutsman
county, N. D., and Carrie o. Lasher of
Jackson county, Wis. The wedding
was the result Of a courtship begun
when Forest b. Posey was youngster
of Is and the bride was but IL, and
both lived on neighboring farms in
Jackson county. 1t was continued.
this courtship, for five years with
Uncle Sam and his mails acting as
loves winged footed messenger.
Five years ago Posey then a boy of
is, and very much in love with the 10
year old belle of the neighborhood,
Carrie Lasher, turned his face west
ward, to Stutsman county, N. D., to in
vest the money he had saved In a farm
there, at time when land in the Da-
kotas was very cheap. He had an OBJ
ject. did young Posey, as he explained
to Judge Gallick. 1t was to build up
in the shortest time possible a home
which he would be willing to ask a GER
tain girl in Jackson county, Wis, to
share.
The time came few months ago
and when 1t did come the regular letter
from Stutsman county, n. d., to Jack
SON county, Wis, was a little more
plump than usual and the reply
ing letter was also a little more plump.
Then they began to arrange the day.
They agreed to meet in ST. Paul, be
married here, and then proceed at once
to the bridegrooms farm home in
North Dakota.
Yesterday morning the bridegroom
came, three hours later the bride ar
rived and they proceeded at once to
the court house where the bridegroom
made all the previous arrangements
necessary to a speedy marriage that
they might catch an outgoing train at
o'clock
And, as Judge Gallick 1ovially re-
marks, it would have been appro-
pirate if the affair had only happened

PAPER TRUST FILES
ANSWER TO SUIT
Denial Made of Any Agreement
Made to Restrain
Trade

Answers were filed yesterday in the
federal court i'm the suit to dissolve the
paper trust, instituted some weeks ago
on the initiative of the department of
justice at Washington.
The General Paper company of
chicago, commonly known as the pa
per trust. with twenty three of the
smaller paper manufacturing compa-
MES for which the General Paper COM
pany is commonly reputed TO be the
selling agent, filed one answer. The
Rhineiander Paper company, having
dlnerent attorneys than those employ
ed by the General Paper company,
filed a separate answer, but it does not
materially differ from the answer set
up by the General Paper company and
the manufacturers with whom the at
torney general maintains il has I'M
proper business Telations.
Demurs to Complaint
The Manufacturers Paper company
OF New York demurs TO the govern
ments complaint, charging that il does
not state facts sufficient TO constitute
cause or action, and that IL is vague
and multifarious. II denies, however,
In detail, that it has entered into an
illegal conspiracy with the General
Paper company not to enter into COM
petition with it in Wisconsin and the
states west of the Mississippi. 1t prays
for a dismissal OF the action so far as
II relates to the Manufacturers Paper
company.
The General Paper company admits
an agreement in May, 1900. TO act as
selling agent for the manufacturers in
Wisconsin and Minnesota. but it denies
any combination 10 fix prices or re-
strain the output of the mills en-
braced in its system. The General
Paper company declares in its answer
that Its function was limited to that
or an agent, TO secure orders and to
execute the same on commission
basis. That it interfered with trade by
restraining the total of manufacture or
the sale of the output is denied. II is
declared that the mills were not bound
by the action of the General Paper
company, and If prices or terms were
unsatisfactory they were not bound by
the agreement Agreements were, ii is
alleged, limited to a certain time, and
covered box lining, hanging, novel.
fibre and manila paper. 1t is urged by
the companies that they are still COM
petitive and that the selling arrange
ment has not eliminated competition.
Handled Entire Product
The Rhinelander Paper company
says in its answer that it was not or
ganized until 1903, and entered into it's
agreement with the General Paper
company in 1904. The agreement, it is
claimed, was effective only on condi-
ton that the General Paper company
handled its entire product. A commits
sion of 3 per cent is allowed the Cen
eral Paper company, but contracts are
subject to review by the Rhinelander
company.
The United States has until the next
rule day, which falls on April 3, in
which to interpose its replication. AS
to the General Paper company and the
other defendants other than the Man
ufacturers' Paper company, the issue
will be Joined, and ii is expected that

HIS WIFE WOKE HIM UP.
Connecticut Man Nearly Choked to
 Death in Niuht


 No comment is needed on the fol- lowing letter. It tells of fearful ex- periences that have fortunately been overcome.
 Dear Sirs-Often in the night my wife had to wake me up because was almost choking to death with ca tarrh. I had one of the worst cases that was ever known. and slIilful phy- sicians said it was chronic.
 Fortunately Q friend told me of Hyomei and I used this treatment faithfully, and today am free from catarrh. l used Hyomei perhaps five times day and could soon see a great change. A complete outfit and an ex- tra bottle cured me. I always carry a Hyomei inhaler in my pocket, so as to prevent any colds or slight catarrhal attacks that are common at this sea son of the year.
 Yours Fraternally, "THOS. FINEHAAI. Putnam, Conn. 2 It is the easiest thing in the world to cure catarrh or catarrhal colds if you use Hyomei. Breathe it's health giving, balsamic air for a few min utes, and your catarrhal trouble will soon be cured.
 The complete outfit costs but one dollar, and consists of an inhaler that can be carried in the purse or vest pocket, a medicine dropper, and a bot tie of Hyomei. The inhaler lasts a life time, while extra bottles, if needed can be obtained for 50 cents. In Phoenix there are scores of well known people who have been cured of catarrh by Hyomei. If it does not help you H. Goodman will return your money in accordance with the guar antee he gives with every outfit.
