The only fault that the Richmond
Times-Dispatch finds with President
Roosevelt's message, is that he makes
no suggestion for tariff revision. The
chief fault which the News Leader
finds with the message is, that the Pres
ident does not advocate State banks of
issue. Mr.. Roosevelt, is Republican
and could not consistently, with his be-
lief in the principles of his party, favor
such tariff revision as is wanted by the
Democrats or the creation of State
banks of issue. To advocate these things
would be to proclaim himself Demo

JUDSON HOME FIRED.
Hugh e. James Suffers a Loss OF
About Two Thousand Dollars.
From TUESDAYS Daily

Fire. destroyed the residence. of Hugh
f. James in Judson, at seven o'clock,
yesterday morning. Just how the fire
originated is not known. Mr.. James
had started for Judson station, one mile
and half distant, and had reached the
roadway opposite the house, when he
observed smoke issuing from the roof.
His first thought was of Mrs. James
who was sick in bed. He removed her to
the home of his father, John James,
who lives across the highway. The fire
had gained Roadway and it was impos-
sible to get it under control. Much OF
the contents were destroyed, including
some valuable chinaware which Mrs.
James had brought with her from Eng
land The hause was built twenty three
years ago and was a large structure. AL
together the loss is something like 81
900, with some insurance.

DISPOSED OF PROPERTY.
Trustee voFk Sells Property Of Defunct
WidelI-F!nIey Company.
ThnrC6av'S Ia

Trustee Volk this forenoon had a
sale of property of the Widell- Finley
company. The only things sold were
the office furniture. The Mankato Man
ufacturing company took the desk at
$50. F. w. Hunt the typewriter, the Odd
Fellows lodge the partitions at SIS, and
the miscellaneous articles brought $4
making $lO4 in ALL The other furniture
in the office was owned by private par
ties.
The. grading and camp equipment at
Glendive was not sold, for no bids were
presented. Mr.. Freeman, a contractor
from Montana, was present, but did not
care to bid on the plant unless he had
the contract to complete the work.
Referee Flittie has given Trustee Volk
permission to dispose of the plant at
GIendive at private sale.
District Attorney c. c. Hurley OF
Glendive, Mont, was present, represent.
ing a Glendive bank.
Senator Eberhart returned this noon
from Washington, where he visited the
various departments in the interest of
the bondsmen of the Belle Fourche job
and the creditors of the company. He
learned that the government has declar-
ed the Glendive contract of the COM
pany forfeited, the same as in the case
of the Belle Fourche contract. 1t has
not been decided whether the govern
ment shall complete the work by the
DAYS labor or advertise for bids again.
If the latter course is pursued, the
bondsmen would have to pay the differ
ence to the government in case higher
higher than when the Widell- Finley
company took the contract it is thought
that the bids for completing the work
would be considerably higher, and that
the bondsmen would stand to lose. They
may also stand to lose if the govern
ment completes the work, under the
eight hour plan. Therefore the bonds
men may make application through the
trustees to complete the work, or allow
| the trustee to do so.
T The trustee and his attorneys have
good news from the Illinois Central
| road. It's engineering department has
completed the contracts held by the
Widell- Finley company and has $4,000
of profit left Unless this should be plas-
tered over with liens, it will be turned
over to the trustee.
1t is expected that something will be
left over from the Chicago North
western contracts, but the Big Four and
Sante Fe work is not expected to net
anything.

Tor, where they were posted on the

there AS this room is in the same
building as the Superior board of trade,
it may seem suspicious that defendant
adopted this round about method of get
ting Superior quotations to its Superior
Office but the circumstances, even If
material, is satisfactorily explained by
the evidence. To sum up my conclusions
from the evidence: -
Comparison of PLAINTIFFS quotations
with those posted by defendant on the
days charged in the affidavit fails to
prove that they were The same r ''s1 f
/ The evidence proves conclusively that
the quotations so used by the defendant
were obtained by wire from the trad
ingroom on the floor of Superior board
of trade.
The quotations so obtained were TAX
en- by an operator from black board IN
the tradingroom of the Superior board,
where they were posted under the head
ing Superior quotations Minneapolis
delivery"
The quotations so posted were mark
ed on the blackboard by board marker,
who received them from the recorder"
by signals.
The future market of the Superior
Board of Trade was an actual market
conducted in good faith by that institn-
ton. 1t was not organized, controlled
or operated by defendant, though de-
PENDANT owned several memberships
and was active both in institutihg the
market and in trading thereon.
The evidence may convict defendant
of scheming successfully to obtain
quotations that would take place of the
chamber quotations in its business and
probably defendant did not exert itself
to inform the public that they were not
the chamber quotations. But defend
ant is not on trial for defrauding the
public, or even for defrauding plaintiff
by using other quotations under name
that is calculated to deceive. The issue
is, did the defendant use plaintiffs quo
tations on the date charged in the afii-
davits?
On this issue the evidence leads to
but one finding, that the quotations used
by the defendant on the dates charged
were not plaintiffs quotations. This is
decisive of the case.

GETS OFF LIGHTLY.
Peter Beiteh Given Thirty Days fol
Abandoning Little Children.

cioii iuCouoy h1hy' .
Peter Beitch was given sentence OF.
30 days in the workhouse at Alinneapo-
is yesterday by Judge Waite of police,
court on a non-support charge.
Mrs. Beitch was bruned to death about
swO weeks ago in fire in her home on
Tenth avenue north and Third street.
The accident occurred as she was in the
,ct of building fire in the kitchen
stove using gasoline instead of Kerosene.
A little daughter had died few
weeks previous as the result of eating
arsenic pills which she mistook for
candy.
After the mothers death it is claimed
that Beitch locked his two remaining
children, boy of and boy of Z, in
the house and left for parts unknown.
The neighbors heard the cries of the
children and notified the police. Ser
geant Ginsberg of the North station broke
i'm the door and found the little ones in
a pitiable plight, as there was no fire in
the stove and the weather was freez
ing.
The children were turned over to
neighbors, who gave them shelter, and
a complaint was sworn out against the
father for non-support.
Beitch is a teacher. He was located
in MankatO and taken back to Mime
apolis Sunday night by Deputy Sheriff
George 10th, as related by The Free
Press yesterday.

How a lie Sueur County Farmer Put
AN End to His Life.

a young married farmer of Derrynane
township in this county, committed sui
eide last night by hanging himself in
a granary on his fathers farm. He had
no bad habits, and no cause is known,
or conjectured, for the deed. He tied a
rope over beam in the granary,
climbed upon a sack of grain, fastened
the moose about his neck and stepped
off into eternity. Coroner H. d. Baxter
of Lexington was notified, and held an
inquest over the remains, the verdict
of the jury being death by his own act.
