LAND AGENTS ARE
TO LOSE PASSES
END OF IMMIGRATION ENTER
PRISES is PREDICTED.
So Say Interested Railroad Men
Even Reduced Fare Denied
Only Boni Eide Employees Per-
mitted to Ride Free Call in
Privileges.
(From Thursdays Daily.)

Beginning Tuesday under formal
decision by the Interstate Commerce
commission the railroads have instruct
ed agents that no free transportation,
or reduced rates of any Kind, can be
issued or given to Ian1 or immigration
agents.
This decision, it is admitted by
railway officials, will practically
kill the lard business and settlement,
by immigrants of various sections of
such states as Wisconsin, Illinois,
Minnesota, the Dakotas and states
further west. In past years the rail-
roads, as an inducement to land COM
panies and agents, as well as to large
numbers of Immigrants, travelling in
parties of ten or more, have been
granting greatly reduced rates, while
professional land agents have been
given free transportation IN connection
with their business of showing lands
and inducing immigration thereto.
AS Wisconsin is now not more than
one third settled, as to territory, the
recent decision by the Interstate Com
merce commission will, it is believed
by the railway people and land agents..
set back occupation of Wisconsin lands
by new corners many years.
The decision of the commission,
just issued says. "The provisions of
this act (the federal rate law, reala-
tive to the issuance of eree tickets,
free passes, free transportation, free
carriage, to employees OF railroads,
apply only to persons who are actually
in the service of these carriers, and
who devote substantially all of their
time to the business of such carriers.
Land and immigration agents, unless
bona fide and actual employees, are
not within the classes to which free
or reduced rates can be lawfully
given"
Under this ruling, agents have re-
ceived instructions from headquarters
of the roads that all free 'lransporta-
ton, or reduced mileage books or
tickets, to so-called land or immigra-
ton agents, must cease at once; and
agents are instructed to call in, forth
with, all passes, mileage books or
time tickets now out and in the hands
of such agents.

Commissioned by Nine. SChu-
mdnn--Heink to Write
Two Songs.

Daniel Protheroe of Milwaukee,
who is the conductor of the Apollo
club in this city, which will give one
of it's popular concerts in the near
future, has been commissioned by
Nine Schumann- Heink of Chicago,
the noted German singer to write for
her two songs to be delivered to her

high appreciation of DR.. Protheroe' s
ability, he being one of the few Ameri-
can composers, who have been so
signally honored by the songstress.
Those who have heard DR.. Protheroe
sing, especially songs of his own COM

a wise choice and the display of goud
taste and Judgment.

HERMAN RAUE WAS
A VISITOR IN CITY
SChWdger DiekOff Says He
Visited His Saloon We'd
neSddy Evening

1t may be of interest to many to
know that Herman Raue was visitor
in the city Tuesday evening. At
least this is the statement of Schwager
Diekoff, who states that Raue was
a visitor at his saloon on Main
street that evening. Asked if he
was certain Of the identity Diekoff
replied: 81 knew him as we'll as |
did my wife, 1t will be remember
ed that Mr.. Raue left here about
nine months ago under rather peculiar
circumstances, the details of which are
no doubt fresh in the minds of the
readers of the Leader, there being a
pathetic side to the sudden departure
that is unnecessary. to speak of at
this time. 1t seems it was the uni
versal opinion of many that Herman
Raue would never make his appear
ance in Watertown again, but the
statement of Mr.. Diekoff appears to
have collapsed such belief. While
Mr.. Diekoff is of the opinion that
the visitor is still n the city, he
said that when Faue departed, he
(Diekoff) asked him if he would
see him again, to which Raue re-
piled :" es, if you're up early enough
in the morning. Mr.. Dlekuf states
that the visitor was in company with
an agent and was dressed in the height
of fashion Raue it will be remem-
bered, was house and sign painter
and conducted a store at ZIG Nam
street, where E. Hero g. Son are now
located. At the time of the myster
ious departure of the proprietor of the
place of business-or what remained
went into the hands of creditors.
What the object of the visit was,
is shrouded in as much of a mystery
as was the sudden departure less thar
q year ago.
