ATTEMPT ANOTHER BANK ROBBERY
State Bank at Carlos Broken Into, But
Burglars Secure Nothing.

An unsuccessful attempt was made
yesterday morning to rob the state
bank at Carlos, small town about
seven miles north of Alexandria. The
operators were evidently profession
ais for they cut through the brick
wall into the vault and used nitro
glycerine on the safe door which was
only partly destroyed. Their work
was very SIMILAR to that which has
been done in this part OF the country
and they may belong to the same gang.
No money was secured as the burglars
were evidently alarmed by persons
going home late from the Alexandria
carnival and frightened away. The
number OF robberies that have been
committed in this part OF the country
show conclusively that there is a gans
we'll organized with plans made sys-
tematically and that their detection
and capture will be no easy matter.

RAILROAD COMMISSIONERS MEET
WI Take Important Action Regard.
ing Regulation OF Elevators and
Their Bonds.

The state railroad commissioners
are holding an important meeting in
Bismarck today and it is expected
they will formulate new regulations
for the management of elevators and
public grain warehouses
1t is said the board will also con-
slider the recent opinion of the at
torney general relating to the bonds
of these companies doing business in
this state. 1t will be remembered
that the attorney general holds that
the bonds that have usually been
furnished by these companies are in
sufficient inasmuch that the sureties
are in many cases non-residents. in
stead of residents of the state or APP
proved security companies. 1t is re-
ported that some of the elevators are
running without authority from the
railroad commission and this matter
will also probably receive attention.

local justice who fixed his bonds at

went to Larimore with warrant for
Howley and was then told that an
other pigger had been arrested and
placed under bonds. In the warrant
which followed the name of John Doe

WILL LOOK FOR DIAMOND THIEVES
Twin City Bellboys Working ut Wal.
dOrf Took Fancy to Diamond.

Chief Lowe has received notification
from Fargo to watch for several lads
who will inquire for work in hotels
and restaurants. 1t seems that some
time ago Landlord Mathews of the
Waldorf engaged a quartet of bellboys
from Minneapolis for the hotel. They
worked satisfactorily till about week
ago when they suddenly disappeared
without notice. Investigation develop
ed that at the same time diamond
ring belonging to Mrs. r. s. Tyler. a
guest at the hotel, was missing. The
police were notified and it was learned
that the boys went east over the
Northern Pacific. They were followed
as far as Detroit, Mimi. and there
all trace of them was lost and thus
far their whereabouts is mystery
to the local authorities. The diamond
ring stolen was very valuable one
and priced by Mrs. Tyler especially
on account of its associations.
The police do not expect to find the
boys up this way as they probably
headed for warmer climates.

TENTATIVE CHOICE OF CANDIDATES
Special Election in Second and Seventh
Wards Monday An Important One.

The special election which is to be
held in the Second and Seventh wards
of this city on next Monday is much
more important than is generally sup
posed. From each of these wards two
aldermen will be elected who will
serve in the council for nearly two
years. The candidates who have an
nounced themselves are such that the
choice between them, If there was Il
choice possible, would be entirely Il
personal one. But as there are but
two candidates so far in each ward,
with two councilmen to be elected in
each, there is nothing more than Il
formal election possible. In fact. it
looks as though the choice has been
tentatively made without an election.
The candidates in the Seventh ward
are George H. Wilder and Ole T. Ell
stad. In the Second ward they are
E. ]. Davidson and l.. H. Sannes.

STATE BANKERS ARE At SUPERIOR
Inspecting the Grain Conditions In
That City and Will Do the Same
ut Duluth.

The Superior Telegram of yester-
day gives the following story of the
committee of the State Bankers as
sociation which is now in that CITY in
the interests of the North Dakota
grain men:
The committee of North Dakota
bankers is in the city today. The
visitors are spending their time look
Ing over the harbor, docks and ele-
yators, and making general inspec-
ton of the city. The commission is
composed of J. l.. Cashel of Grafton,
president of the North Dakota Bank
ers' association; w. C. McFadden of
Fargo, Senator Young of Valley City
and F. w. Cathrow of Bottineau.
These gentlemen went over the city
today In company with number of
local business men. President Nc
Neill of the Normal school rendered
the use of his launch to convey the
Dakota men about the harbor and
they put in a very pleasant day. After
finishing their tour on this side of the
bay they will go to Duluth and look
into the grain situation there, having
come on invitation of the Duluth
board of trade.
One cause of the visit of these gen.
tlemen is the address which Senator
Hudnall made at the convention of the
North Dakota bankers last summer
and they wish to see if all of his state
ments are correct.
When asked in regard to the situa-
ton here Mr.. Cashel said: I'VE do
not find the conditions here any bet
ter than they should be, though we
are not through yet and are hardly in
position to say anything. So far as
the statements made by Senator Hud-
nall at our convention are concerned,
l would say that SO far as we have
been able to learn, he would seem to
have ground for what he said"

FOOT BRIDGE NEEDED ON TRACKS
Long Wheat Trains Block Third and
Fourth Street Crossings Daily.

The handling of the wheat crop
causes more inconvenience than that
which is usually connected with car
shortage and over crowded elevators.
Yesterday Third street in this city
was blocked for seven minutes by the
watch while a train load of wheat
nearly mile long was moving out of
the yards. The condition is one. how
ever, which cannot be remedied and
the inconvenience must be endured.
The city ordinance limits the speed of
trains in the city limits to eight miles
an hour, and when train of a hun
dred heavily ladened cars is pulling
out over the switches the speed is
reduced to much less than that. At
the crossing yesterday from the two
directions not less than fifty people
gathered. The railroad cannot re-
lieve the condition except by running
their line around the city and the
railroad is too important to the COM
such course. But it is not i'm
probable that in time it will be found
necessary to construct a foot bridge
over the track at the Third street
crossing This will always be an i'm
portant thoroughfare because of the
business houses located both north
and south of the track. as we'll as be-
cause it is the street most often used
in reaching the respective shopping
districts from the different parts of
the city. In the summer there is little
inconvenience in waiting for a pass
ing train. But in winter the wait is
far from pleasant. No matter where
the yards may be located. the condi-
ton will always be the same. Third
and Fourth streets are the only ones
which will ever be very much both
cred with moving trains, and bridge
over the track at one point would
actually serve for both as it would
be small task to walk from one to
the other in case OF a blockade

RAILROADS MUST MOVE FASTER
Are Moving Grain to Duluth at Too
Slow Pace.

The inability of the railroads of the
northwest to get the crops to market
in any such time as they used to a
few years ago, is emphasized more
than ever this year. and is the mat
ter OF uppermost comment in the
grain trade at the present time. 1t
has come to DO recognized among
grain men, who consider the situa-
ton. that the day when the north
western crop could be rushed to mar
ket in four or five months has passed
and that the movement will be ex-
tended over large part of the year.
Nevertheless there are a large num-
Der of grain buyers who fill their
requirements by purchases at Duluth
and Superior through the fall, and eX-
pect their grain shipped down the
lakes before the close of navigation
The Daily Commercial Record esti-
mates 55,O0O,OO0 bushels as the inside
figure on all grains that must be sent
down before the close this year and
points out to the railroads that the
rate of movement now being MAIN
tanned will make the total fall many
millions OF bushels below that and

article says:
1.-THE movement of grain into Duluth
during the past week is a pretty fair
index OF the ability of the railroads to
deliver grain there. although it is gem
orally conceded that the Great North
ern has not as yet reached its maxi
mum. but the Northern Pacific on the
other hand. always does better at the
beginning of the season. and it prob
ably cannot keep up the pace set this
week The total receipts of the week
are 3.3S5.00 bushels. about 3,4OO cars.

ing weeks can he kept up to $500
cars, about 500 daily. or for the week
to Dec. :. IL total OF $500 cars, 49,
100000 bushels. So far in September
the receipts OF all kinds of grain
reaches 6.25O.O00 bushels.
Some weeks ago the Commercial
Record estimated requirements of all
grain out OF Duluth this fall at g.
100000 bushels. At the present time
we would be inclined to figure these
requirements at somewhat smaller
figures, and for the purpose of show

I'VE have no doubt that the rail-
roads, when their attention is directed
to the condition of affairs, will exert
every effort to facilitate the grain

of all grain will take care of our re-

Dairymen Meet,

Joel G. Winkjer, state dairy and
food inspector stated yesterday that
the Red River Valley Dairymen's as
ISOLATION will hold it's annual conyen-
ton in Crookston on the 14th and
18th days of November This will be
the fourth convention held in Crooks
ton. Judging from the attendance at
past meetings the inspector says that
he has every assurance in thinking
the coming conference will be more
largely attended than in any previous
year. The fact that more interest is
being shown in dairying than ever
before, as is evident from the large
number of creameries which have
been built in the Valley within recent
years, will be decidedly instrumental
in bringing the attendance to a point
that will surpass all previous records.
