RACE FOR $4,000.
Owner Of Bill Bailey Wants to Race
Him Against Royal L.

Winnipeg Telegram: Although the
proposed match race between Bill
Bailey and Royal L. has not yet been
clinched, there is probability that
the race will yet come off. In re-
Spouse to w. r. Barry's remarks in
yesterdays Telegram as to why the
race fell through on Saturday, w. w.
Fleming has come back with the fol-
lowing letter:
Sporting Editor telegram: am
not looking for notoriety through the
press, but as w. H. Barry has repeat
eddy had letters and interviews and
challenges galore, lauding himself and
his horse, Royal L. and Offering to
race anything that wears hair"
think it only fair that should let the
public know the exact facts. When
Mr.. Barry's challenge appeared ac-
cepted the same in December of last
year and deposited $1,000 with you,
and that very day Royal L." was, ac-
cording to his owner, able to stand
Chestnut ION his head" Now l 10
not claim Bailey is in his (Chestnuts)
class, but have at all times been will
ing to race Royal L." at any time, any
place, any distance, for any amount
of money Mr.. Barry may decide ON,
provided, as stated by me at the time,
that the race should come off on or
before Feb. Is. My reason for this is
that l have fast class to start on
May oath at Brandon, and wish to
have Bailey ready, and do not consider
it good practice to keep him on edge
winter and summer. Referring to our
meeting at DR.. Hillman's Office, I
waived all conditions, gave Mr.. Barry
everything he asked as regards dis
lance, amount and time of deposits
and allowed him to nave everything
his own way with the one exception,
the date, and as Royal L." is being
worked every day and looks in the
pink of condition l cannot but think
that he is "has been" or his owner
is not as anxious to race this fastest
horse on earth" as he would have the
public, through the press, believe.
Now, l will make another PROPOSE
ton. l will race Royal L. with
Bailey" March 1, one-half mile heats,
three in five or any longer distance
up to five miles. for $4,000 a side,
$1,000 to be at once deposited as
forfeit and agreement signed. If this
itsnot accepted do not wish to con-
tinue the discussion. am also open
to match "Odgen" at any time for any
amount If the owner of Royal L."
does not like "Bailey's" game.

THE Ignite COAL IS.
FOUND SUITABLE
BY OFFICIAL
Chief Engineer Owen Returns
From Satisfactory Trip Of
Investigation.

Last evening F. E. Owen, chief engi-
neer Of the Dakota division of the
Great Northern, returned to the city
from his western trip, where he went
to inspect the Ignite burning engines.
The management of the road is con-
templating burning the North Dakota
and Montana Ignite in all of their
engines except the passengers and the
fast freights.
= Mr.. Owen found that the engines by
being drafted down will burn the lig-
mite coal as we'll as the bituminous.
1t takes more draft and more fuel,
but steam can be kept up quite as
we'll. The trouble with using 1t on
the fast freights and passengers is
that the engines have to be coaled
so often. For instance, the fast trains
are not coaled between Larimore and
Devils Lake, but If ignite was used
they would have to be coaled once or
twice, and this would mean a loss of
valuable time.
The engines on all freights except
through trains will be refitted for
burning Ignite. The necessary re-
pairs and changer will be made at
once and all the engines will burn
the native coal in the near future. ls
This radical change was drought
about by the high price of the btu
minOus coal and the inability of the
company to secure sufficient supply

BODY OF VICTIM.
Remains Of Frank Farley May Be
Brought to CrOOkstOn.

Emil ]. Farley, of Ada, brother of
Fan Farley, of this city, and Frank
]. Farley, who was killed, in Cincin-
natl day before yesterday by being
run over by freight train, has left
for Cincinnati, where he will look af-
ter the remains of his brother. The
father of the dead man, who resides
at Woonsocket, R. l., wired to have
the body inferred there, but wire
from this city ordered the remains to
be held until Emil Farley arrived. 1t
is possible that the remains may be
brought to this city for interment.
Deceased, it is learned, had a consid-
cradle sum of money on his person
at the time of the fatal accident and
also had two insurance policies, one
In the Samaritans and the other in the

HAD CLOSE CALL.
Car Repairers Severely Bruised in
Carman Yards.

. il + d 7 nj. b
John Anderson, Frank Anderson
and Martin Wig came very close to be-
ing instantly killed yesterday while
at work in the Carman yards. All
three are car repairers and were at
work under car on one of the side
tracks when without warning car
was bumped into the one they were
at work under by the switch engine,
the breakman knowing nothing Of
their presence.
All three were knocked over and
dragged several feet, but fortunately
none of them were thrown under the
wheels. They were taken to DIR. Dun
lop's Office at Crookston, where it
was found that Martin Wigs collar
bone was broken, but he with Frank
Anderson, who required several
stitches to get the flesh of his jaw
closed up as 1t should be, were later
able to be taken home.
John A. Anderson Is probably the
most seriously injured If the three.
His elbow was dislocated and he may
have received serious internal in
juries. He was taken to ST. Vincents
hospital, where later developments
will indicate the extent of his in
juries. He is suffering considerable
pain but hopes are entertained that
he will be around in short time.

Frozen Ozone Scheme.

Master Carpenter E. A. Mills of the
Northern division of the Great North
ern has received instructions to erect
an Ice house at Noyes, located near
the boundary short distance from
st. Vincent and is waiting for the
next cold snap to try an experiment
which he believes will be great
saving to the company. Instead of
building the house and filing it with
ice. his plan is to have everything pre-
pared to do business in a hurry, and
some bright morning when the at
mosphere is frozen stiff, board up a
chunk of 1t and avoid the expense of
filling the thing with ice cream from
the river. 1t would be so constructed.
as to- be easily taken to pieces and
next winter the operation could be re-
peated with little trouble. If the
scheme works all Great Northern ice
houses in the north country will be
handled in the same way and new
Office will he created for Mr.. Mills,

WORKING TOWARD BEMIDJL
Surveyors Are Running Prellminar,
Lines West.

Bagley, Jan. 24.-Farmers residing
in the town of Leon, Crc>-water coun-
ty, report that railroa dsurveyors are
running preliminary line between
sections IL and. 10, in that township,
which is numbered 1897.
This is the first line, that has been
run south Of Clearwater lake (149-36),
and taken from Thief River Falls,
would indicate that Bemidji is the
point they are making for.
The territory through which this
line would pass is the richest in
northern Minnesota. Although the
lands along the proposed new line are
from 20 to As miles from railroad,
farms from 40 to 100 acres under Gull
tivation are opened up and two cream
cries are now being erected ~ the
farmers in the towns Of Winsor and

ENGINE m 4 PIT.
500 Locomotive Fell Into Turntable
Pit Mt Bismarck.

Bismarck Tribune: One Of the 500
engines fell into the turntable pit In
the local yards last evening and
caused the company q heap of trouble
and several thousand dollars expense.
IT appears that after the train from
the north came in the engine, as usu-
al, was cut loose and run down to
take water. and coal. This completed,
it is claimed that Engineer Egan
started forward, instead of backward,
with the result that the engine and
tender went into the turntable pit and
turned turtle. The engineer and fire.
man jumped and escaped injury. The
wrecking outfit of the N. p. from Man
dan was secured and 1t was expected
the engine would be lifted out of the
hole by a p. m. today While her
beauty will be somewhat married, the
engine, it is expected, will be able to
take out the north bound train late
in the afternoon. The accident neces-

EXTENSION PROJECTED.
Hannah Branch May Be Extended To
Portage Ia Prairie in Early Spring.

It is understood that this line of
the Great Northern will be extended
in the early spring from Hannah to
Portage La Prairie, located on the
Grand Trunk about SO mics west of
Winnipeg. Good authority states that
heavy rails will be laid on the en-
tire line from Larimore north and that
these are already being shipped in.
A thorough sleeping car service will
be one of the improvements and a
Sunday train will very likely be put
on. This information comes from an
authority high in the confidence of
the railroad company and there is
every reason to believe that the
changes mentioned will be effected.

Tracks Are Cleared.

Nearly all of the trains on the Great
Northern are running on time. While
train No. was some five hours late
this morning, it was due to the con-
ditions further west. The trains were
all more or less late last night, but
this morning they got In within half
an hour Of running time and the north
trains were out by 9 o'clock, for the
first time in fortnight.
