SURPRISE At ST. PAUL
ROADS AND GRAIN FIRMS GET
GRAND JURY SHAkE-UP.
MANY REBATE INDICTMENTS
Eleven Railroad Officials included In
the List, but Names Are
Withheld.

Minneapolis, Minn.-Eleven indiCt.
| ments were handed TO Judge LOchran
in the United States district court
and they covered the giving of rebates
by certain railroads and the receiving
Of the same by grain firms and indi,
viduals. The list OF corporations
against which the indictments were
returned, as given out by Assistant
District Attorneys Ewart and Dickie,
who have had charge of the cases,
were as follows:
The Great Northern Railroad Co.,
four indictments and about Is counts.
Chicago, st. Paul, Minneapolis &
Omaha railway. one indictment and
so counts.
Wisconsin Central railway, one In
dictment, II counts.
Minneapolis & st. Louis railway,
one Indictment counts.
The indictments against the rail.
roads charge the giving of rebates.
For Receiving Rebates.
Under the head of receiving rebates,
the following true bills were returned:
w. P. Deyereux Coz, McCall-Dinsmore
Co., Minneapolis; Ames. Brooks Co., of
Duluth; Duluth Milling Co.
Some Of the specific charges con-
tained in the indictments were
against the Great Northern railway,
two indictments for giving rebates to
the Spencer Grain Co, one for giving
to the McCall-DlnsmOre Co. and for
giving rebates to the Spencer Grain
Co.
The Omaha railroad the Wisconsin
Central and the Minneapolis & St.
Louis were charged with favoring the
Spencer Grain Co. The companies In.
dicted who are not railroad companies
are charged with receiving rebates.
Railroad Officials Indicted.
Besides the corporations, indict.
ments were returned against eleven
individual officials Of the railroads
named, but United States District At.
torney Houpt said he would not con-
sent to the names being given out
for publication owing to the fact that
no service had yet been obtained upon
them.
The general offense alleged In the
railroad indictments is the absorption
of grain elevation charges.
After the bunch of indictments had
been given out to the court, the jurors
were excused for the term and told
to convene again in st. Paul.
Perhaps the most surprised people
OF all were the railroads, for none
Of those interested expected indict-
ments to be brought.

Practical educators have been busy
OF late at teachers Institutes and 9th.
er gatherings, and many topics of live
interest have been discussed. Among
other things athletics and secret So

noteworthy, says the Troy Times, that
much opposition was shown on the
part of professors and other instruc.
tors to secret societies, particularly
those in high schools and academies.
AS regards athletics, however, there
was surprising unanimity of opinion
that proper indulgence was an excel
lent thing and tended to, promote good
scholarship. Even delegates to relig-

CARS AND LABOR SHORT
MANY INDUSTRIES HANDICAPPED
BY TRAFFIC DELAYS.
BUSINESS REPORTED GOOD
iron and Steel Industry So Prosperous
as to Preclude Sharp
Competition.

New York, N. Y.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'S weekly review of trade says:
Business experienced the custom.
ary interruption during election week,
but more permanent retarding infu.
ence was the inadequate supply of
freight cars and labor. Many indus
tries are severely handicapped by
traffic delays. In other cases there Is
idle machinery because hands cannot
be secured, despite the high wages
offered. This difficulty threatens to
reduce the lumber cut materially. Sew
eral strikes are threatened, and one
railway system alone has advanced
wages to the extent of $1.000000
monthly. Retail trade is well main
tanned by lower temperature in some
sections of the country, and the full
employment Of labor at all points,
while wholesale business in holiday
goods is very heavy.
Iron and Steel Industry.
Tardy delivery still causes COM
plant in the iron and steel industry,
unprecedented production by the fin
ishing mills falling behind the require
ments Of consumers. Railway block
AIDES also contribute to the dissatis-
faction of purchasers, who cannot OBJ
tain deliveries on specifications against
old contracts, while new orders are
only taken subject to remote ship
ment. New lake vessels have been
ordered, which means more business
in plates, although the mills are al
ready booked beyond the first quarter
Of next year. The mills have SO much
business on hand that there is not the
customary sharp competition to get
new business. More advances have
occurred in pig iron, and the new ore
season has opened with rise of from
30 to rs cents per ton.
In the Grain and Flour Trade.
Interrupted movement of grain to
primary markets and the consequent
restriction of foreign business as well
as activity Of northwestern -four mills
checks the upward tendency of quota
tions and caused some reaction. West

Bank Teller Allows Boy to, Walk Off

Milwaukee, Wis.-Through a mis-
take an unknown man Wednesday
obtained the sum of. s1,121 from the,
National Exchange bank and sdisap.
peared with the money.
The error was caused partly on
account Of an unusual rush @'at the
noon hour. A clerk from a,large
business establishment proffered:ra
check for $1,121 to one of the teliers
to be cashed. While the teller was
counting the money the clerk left for
moment to speak with a friend,
Meanwhile the teller completed his
task and handed out the cash. A
youth who meanwhile had taken the
clerks pace, accepted the money and
fastened away.

Apples for the Brain.

Apples are said to contain more
phosphorus than any other fruit or
vegetable, and it is claimed that this
makes them specially adapted to re-
Uewing the nervous matter of the brain
and spinal cord. Perhaps for the same
reason, rudely understood, the old
Scandinavian traditions represent the
apple as the food Of the gods, who,
when they felt themselves growing fee
BILE and infirm, resorted to this fruit
for renewing their powers of mind and
body. AS far back as the tenth cen
tury medical authorities were enthusi.
astic in their writing over remarkable
curative properties of different fruits,
says the SegnOgram. In more modern
times this has been revived, and nearly
everyone has heard Of the grape cure"
the apple, peach or strawberry cure.
One writer is said to have rec
mended in special cases eating 20
pounds of Strawberries a day. The
same writer gained reason by the ex.
elusive use of cherries. These cases
savor of the ridiculous, but there is no
doubt that the so-Called grape cure"
for Indigestion and other evils has re.
suited in great good to persons trying
1t. The fruit should be of good quail
fty; If it is not and grapes are sour
and watery, the patient may be harmed
rather than benefited.
