NO MACARoNI TRUST
DEAL IN TWIN CITIES

The macaroni trust; has failed in its
effort to swallow a plant in the twin
cities. Reports from New York to T h e
Journal, june 26, had the Minnesota
Macaroni company of St. Paul as one
Of the constituent companies in the
macaroni combine known as the Flour
Products company. But F.. x. Moos-
br1gger of the Minnesota Macaroni
company denies that shis concern is in
the trust. He says: ~.
NWe have received an offer from
the Flour Products sscompany to ioin
thir combine, which they are perfect.
ing. in New York, butswe have declined.
Their proposition was not very ia.
vorable to us. Thoyssdide not want to
take over our entire holdings but mere-
~ wanted us to join their concern. Our
business has been excellent, and We
have not thought we would better our.
selves by Joining the combine. The re-
port is, therefore, erroneous, altho not
without some foundation, as they did
ask us to amalgamate with them" q

caused a fatal rupture of his liver,
while he was taking shower bath.
Five attendants were with him at the
time. When he stepped into the bath
stall he fell. and struck his side against
a marble slab. He complained Of no
injury, but it is believed that the fall

visited and found lying under the bed
on the floor. Thinking he preferred to
lie on the floor, mattress was brought
in and Anderson placed upon it on the

Eyvind Boyesen, superintendent of a
school for the deaf and dumb at Sande-
fjord, Norway, was in the city yester-
day; He is making a tour Of the
yestigating methods. Of instrncting the
deaf, and dumb. Western schools. he
says; are in advance OF the eastern,
as many Of the former have; not yet
adopted. the oral method Of teaching.
Where trades are taught the pupils do
not receive sufficient practical training
to enable them to go into the world to
earn their own living It is necessary
for them to serve considerable appren-
ticeship. .t.
Mr.. Boyesen is convinced that the
country is the best place for people
afflicted with The loss Of hearing or
OF speech. as they are likely to receive
more consideration there than in the
city. Moreover, there Is less likei-
hood for intermarriage.
