described the political, industrial and ag
ricultural possibilities of Palestine.
Particular stress was laid upon the ia
vorable attitude evinced toward Jewish
colonization in Palestine by the Turkish
government This was due to the I'M
pleasant experiences of the porte with
Christian colonists, who, becoming in
voved in difficulties with the govern
ment, made an opening for the territorial
aggressions Of the European powers. On
the other hand, Prof. Warburg declared,
the Jews made peaceful citizens on ac-
count of their satisfaction at being on
historic soil.
The commission recommended the or
ganization of commercial, industrial and
agricultural syndicates for exploiting the
resources of Palestine.

Jews Will Defend Themselves

Berlin.-The Jewish Relief Society
hears that a mob at Bialystok on Friday
set fire to an empty barn. They then
went to the police with tale that Jews
had started the fire and asked permis-
sion to revenge themselves by another
pOgrom.
The police referred the mob to the gov
ernOr, who in answer to their request
said:
81 will not furnish soldiers for any
such purpose. If there is going to be
pogrom you will have to do the work
yourselves, and if you do I warn you that
you are likely to fare very badly. as the
Jews will certainly defend Themselves
There was no pogrom.

THE WINNERS
In Tennis Matches This Morn
ing-Good Weather and
Many Players.

Tennis Grounds, 8. p. m.-The fifth
annual North Dakota state tennis
tournament opened this morning at
the grounds of the Town and Country
club under most suspicious conditions.
Over seventy players are entered in
the different events, among whom are
cracks from Winnipeg and the cream

in Minnesota. The decorations are
very beautiful, immense flags being
floated from the many STATS at the
grounds.
:. The play began shortly after 9
o'clock this morning. ideal weather
played during the forenoon. The
match between D. Davy of Winnipeg
and DR.. w. H. Bates of this city was
a most interesting contest and called
forth considerable applause from the
spectators. After losing the first set
to Davy 6-3, DR.. Bates turned the
tables by taking the second Ga, but
lost the third and deciding set 6-:,
after, making gallant struggle. Mr..
Davy plays some beautiful strokes

racquet, he having held the York
SHIRE. England, championship for
three years.
The match between Butler Lamb of
Towner and F. r. Brown of Fort
Totten, in the open Red river valley

NUMBER OF HARVESTERS.
Estimated by the Three Trunk Lines
-: Extending Through the State.

AS is customary just before the
grand opening of the harvest in North
Dakota and Minnesota, the various
railroads that tap the wheat fields are
making diligent scour of the coun-
try for laborers to handle the crops.
Through their agents the number of
hands that can be used in the various
communities is estimated and the
number for North Dakota is placed
at 36.306. The Great Northern re-
ports the need of 9.845 in the country
tributary to its lines. The Northern
Pacific states that 1896 can be used
along its lines, while the 500 reports
the need of 1866 in northern Mime
sofa and North Dakota. With the es-
timated number necessary In Mime
sofa there will be demand for 10000
hands in all.
The influx of the harvest hands has
scarcely started, but by August 10,
when it is estimated that harvest will
be on in full blast. there will be q
large number here from the south to
care for the crops.

THE ENTIRE TRAIN
WENT INTO THE
DITCH
G. N. Train 139 Wrecked North
Of Marvel Sunday No One
Was Injured.

Great Northern train 1879, Grand
Forks to Winnipeg, was wrecked on
Sunday morning at a point three miles
north of Marvel, through the break
ing of a journal. Every car in the
train, excepting the rear one, a COM
bination buffet car, was ditched and
overturned, or partly SO, but so far
as can be learned not a single pas
senger wa seriously injured. A few
were badly shaken up and some
slightly bruised.
The train was running at a rate of
about thirty to thirty-five miles an
hour when the accident happened, and
that there were no fatalities is truly
nothing short of wonderful.
The accident, as above stated, had
1t inception in the swapping of jour-
nal on the tender. The break allowed
the tender to drop to the ties with the
result that the track was torn up for
several hundred feet. The baggage,
mail car, smoker and two day coaches
left the track and went over in the
ditch with a crash. When the dust
had settled the passengers made
egress from the coaches via the win
dows and took an inventory. Nobody
was previously hurt and there was,
accordingly, a regular pink tea"
period of congratulation.
Conductor Hill and Engineer Bris-
Ian, who were in charge of the train,
took immediate steps to get notice of
the accident to the head Offices in this
city and by noon Sunday, the accident
having occurred about $50. a wrecker
and crew of men. were on the ground
A train was made up here this
morning and sent out. A new piece
of track built around the scene of the
wreck permitted passage northward.
The old track was very badly torn
up, the trailing tender, having piled
up ties and rails in an indiscriminate
mass. BY 10 o'clock this morning all
the ditched cars but one were on the
rails and by night the line will again
be clear.
Sundays wreck gave another ex-
ample of Great Northern luck" That
the ditching and overturning of a
train running thirty to thirty-five
miles an hour should result in the
injury of not a person, is indeed moth
ing short of miraculous, but the Great
Northern seems to know how it is
done, judging from history of the past
year. A number of Grand Forks peo-
pie went to the scene of the accident
Sunday Afternoon.
The loss to the railway company
will not be very large, the equipment
being but little damaged. Consider
able glas was smashed and the trucks
on two or three coaches were broken.
This, with the tearing up of the track.
will constitute the greater part of the
damage.

HILL PRIZES
Profs. Shaw and Hoverstad
Judging Farms in N. D. and
s. D. and MINI.

Pres. Thomas Shaw of st. Anthony
park. northwest editor of the Orange
Judd Farmer. accompanied by Prof.
T. A. Hoverstad Of Dennison. Mimi,
engaged by the state of Minnesota
In institute work, were guests at the
Waldorf last. evening. having arrived
from the northern part of Minnesota,
says the Fargo Call. Both gentlemen
are in the employe OF James ]. Hill,
judging farms in North Dakota and
South Dakota and Minnesota for the
$7.S75 in prizes which will be dis
tributed by the railway king for the
best farms in the northwest.
The only requirements necessary to
enter the contest are that they be
owners of twenty head of cattle and
twenty head of either sheep or swine.
There were in all 500 farmers that
filled in blanks wanting to enter the
contest for the liberals awards, but
out of that number 400 were ruled
out, not having filled the require
ments. 1t will take all of the time
of the judges to cover the remaining
lOO farms.
The three states are divided into
fifteen districts where the interests
and conditions correspond and there
are three: awards for, each district,
first $B008: second $3.50 and third SIS.
There are seven districts in Minnesota,
five in North Dakota and three in
South Dakota. .,.3 .. ..
In judging the farms one of the es-
sential features that is necessary for
high scoring is that of rotation of
crops. Where this is lacking there
is little show of getting any of the
prize money. Another department that
must score we'll is cattle raising and
breeding. The farms must be we'll
drained and the buildings must be we'll
cared for.
Professor Hoverstad stated that in
his travels over the northwest that
the crops are, generally speaking, in
fine shape. He said that he has seen
more clover and alfalfa in the Red
river valley than all the rest of the
section covered together and that It
is of much better quality.
The judging party leaves here for
points in southern Minnesota where
they will finish their work when they
will return to North Dakota harvest
fields to score the farms that have en-
tered the contest. -
