WIRES STILL CROSSED
Clark Miller Resigns as Manager from
Redwood County Telephone
Company.
Directory Calls Special Meeting and
Serves Notice of Buy or Sell
on Associates.

At meeting of the directors of
the Redwood County Rural Tele-
phone Co., held at the office of the
secretary in this city A. c. Miller,
who has been secretary and general
manager of the company for a long
time, rendered his resignation, the
same to go into effect on July LIST
next.
A much more important action on
part of the directors than the re-
ceiving and accepting the resigna-
ton was the order issued for a
special meeting of the stockholders
of the company to be held at the
court house in this city on Satur-
day, June 23d. The directory
which represents the largest por-
ton of the stock, has concluded to
put it up to the other stockholders,
and particularly those holding one
or two shares each, IN big bunch
form. At the special meeting they
will tell the small stockholders that
they have but two alternatives to
either sell their shares or buy the
stock held by the big stockholders.
In case the heavy shareholders sue
coed in forcing the one and two
shareholders to sell out their inter-
ests they propose to reorganize the
company and place the same on
what they call a business basis. The
principal feature of this business
basis is to have each share of stock
counted for one vote at meeting
of the stockholders, a feature now
eliminated from the present COM
pany. In case the small sharehold-

Pretty Home Wedding at NORTH Red
wood Last Wednesday.

The marriage of Miss Hattie Luz
cretia, daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
August II. Seebeck, to Ewalt A.
Schulz, prosperous young mer-
chant of Boyd, was solemnized at
the home of the brides parents,
near North Redwood, commencing
at 8 o'clock last Wednesday after
noon, the Rev. Charles F. Sydow,
pastor Of the Evangelical church of
North Redwood officiating.
The charming bride was attired in

holders, as represented on the di-
rectory, the larger shareholders say
that they will turn over their stock
cheerfully, and will gladly retire
from the management of the COM
pany.
Whether the heavy stockholders
can force the smaller holders to buy
or sell is question that remains to
be seen.
The big shareholders, in case they
freeze out the smaller holders, will
undoubtedly adopt the share vote
system, and are also likely to raise
the phone rentals, as the company
has been unable to make any money
on the investment, under the pres
ent system, and on Aug. 18th next
there will be a heavy interest to
pay on the bond issue of a year ago.
In addition dividend was declared
about year ago, but the officers
claim that they have no funds from
which to liquidate the dividends,
and there is dissatisfaction among
the investing stockholders. That
the meeting on June 10th will be an
interesting one there is no doubt.
Mr.. Miller, who retires from the
company on July LIST next, will enter
the employ of the Vaught- Berger
Telephone Manufacturing Co. of La.
Crosse, selling the telephone supplies
of that concern to the local com.
pany now organized and to those
being organized. His home will
continue in Redwood Falls.
No action looking to successor
to Mr.. Miller will be taken until
after the meeting of the 10th. Al
that time the present directory will
either have it's way in getting the
company on what it calls business
basis, or it will retire in a body and
leave the stockholders to organize
and perfect a new management, and
probably take over the shares now
held by the directory stockholders.

Seattle Ship Goes Down After Col
lisiOn With Liner.
81 PASSENGERS IwERE SAVED

Seattle, Wash, Nov. 20.-Forty-twc
lives were lost in the disaster of AK
Point, when the little steamer Dix was
Thirty-seven of the 70 passengers on
the Dix were rescued. OF the five fe-
male passengers on the Dix the only
one to escape was Alice Simpson, a Is
year-old girl. She is believed to be the
only person who escaped from the main
deck Of the steamer, where more than
half of the Dix's passengers were shut
in when the fatal crash came. She
could not swim, but her clothing kept
her afoat until she was pulled aboard
one of the lifeboats lowered by the
steamship Jeanie
1t is believed that the 81 passengers
who were rescued included every per-
son who was on the open deck Of the
Dix when the little craft plunged down
stern foremost into 100 fathoms of wa
ter. It is doubtful whether she can be
raised.
The jeanne was backing when she
collided with the Dix and the impact
was very slight. The Dix was struck
abaft Of amidships on the starboard
side. She listed heavily to port for
brief period, righted herself. then sank
stern first. There was hardly time to
launch life RATS OF boats before she was
almost entirely submerged. Passengers
JUMPED from the decks into the water;
women screamed and officers and men
called orders that could hardly be
heard above the din. The passengers
from. the Dix who could swim made
their way to the sides of the jeanne and
were dragged aboard.
When the Dix started to sink, stern
first passengers and members of the
crew leaped into the sound. Some OF
the passengers huddled together in
groups on the deck while others knelt
in prayer.
The women, who had little chance for
their lives, stayed with the sinking
steamer and were drowned as in a
trap.
All the members of the crew, save
Captain Lermond, who happened to be
above in his fare collecting round, and
a deck hand, went down with their
steamer So far as known every one
who managed to get free from the
wreck was saved.
Immediately after the Jeanne brought
the story of the collision to Seattle |
the tugs Bahada and Tyee. the passen-
ger steamer Florence X. and the jeanne
were ordered out to cruise about the
sound for floating bodies. One by one
the boats have put back, without hav-
ing found any one. The tide was ebbins
when the collision occurred, and il
there were any bodies at the surface
they have probably been swept far
down the sound. The others are likely
buried with the Dix, 100 fathoms below
the waters surface.

Pittsburg Doctor and Banker Threat
ened With Death Unless They Pay.
Pittsburg. Pa, Nov. 21.-Following
the murder of a member of the Black
Hand society here by an Italian who
had been threatened with death If he
failed to pay the society $780, Leon
Sadowski. a prominent physician, and
j. A. Nowak. a banker and financial
controller of the Polish National AL
lance, received letters from the Black
Hand society demanding $1,000. and
threatening death unless they accede
to the demands of the society.
The Polish residents of the city are
greatly excited over the matter and
believe Russian spies, endeavoring to
discourage the Polish National ALI
ance, are responsible for the author
ship Of the letters. Mr.. Nowak has CON
troll over a large sum of money, which
is received from all parts of the United
States as contributions to the Polish
National Alliance, whose purpose is
said to be to liberate Poland from
Russian domination. The police depart
ment took charge of the matter and.
aided by the United States authorities,
hope to arrest the persons who sent
the letters.

TWO MEETINGS
BROWN SAYS CARTER CRITICIZED
HIM FOR EMPLOYING TOO
MANY HAWAIIANS.

William Aylett, returned member of
the Hawaiian band, was one of the
chief spelbinders at the Republican
meeting held last night at Waikiki.
one of the main propositions he adj
vanccd was to have tax collectors made
county officers instead of TERRITORIAL.
Aylett spoke for support for all the
Republican candidates.
A. NJ. Brown was i'm his home pre-
cinct and was given an ovation He
remarked that he had a "cinch" i'm
the precinct. He asked for support
for all the party ticket and said:
81 ask you to support me as against
the candidate of the Democrats, Curtis
Iaukea because of the just and fair
treatment I have given the Hawaiians
You know me well enough.
"On November 6, vote for me and the
rest of the ticket and come aboard the
canoe Alabama and ride to victory.
The Democrats can climb into the Mo
ewela (Hot Chill Pepper canoe and
they will drift to disaster upon the
beach. I don't want to go into this
fight to win alone. If we lose a single
man on that ticket we go down to de-
feat"
A. V. Gear repeated his confident
predictions of success, and spoke of
laborers' wages. ct have been criti-
cized" he said "for asking the electors
to come to me after my election and
stating their wants and for asking
them to ask me to supply their wants.
I want to repeat that statement to you
this evening. 1 will only be too glad
to have you come to me and tell me
your wants, for how can 1 otherwise
know them. The laborer is worthy of
his hire. I don't believe that man
can properly bring up his family for
less than $3.50 a day"
William T. Raw MS said that the
Democratic organization and the Home
Rule organization We're opposed to Re
publicans this time and the Republicans
must stand shoulder to shoulder and
fight the common enemy. Rawlins
told of what the Republicans had ac-
complished since they were in power.
The Republican party, he said. had
done more in two years than the other
parties could do in a thousand. The
County Act needs amending and Re-
publicans can amend it better than
persons from other parties.
Rawlins urged the people to make
no more distinctions between haoles

CENTRAL UNION CHURCH.

Central Union church progrom to-
morrow includes the Bible School at

at 1880 p, m. The plan Of giving the
keynote for a weeks study of some
Bible theme by means of the Sunday

feeling the impetus. DR.. Scudder's
subject to morrow evening will be

Trees and the Master" to be sung by
Mr.. Frederick Hastings of oahu College
while in the evening Macy's THE

A hearty invitation is extended to
all, especially to strangers, to be pre-
sent at these services,
