Queen Alexandra did her Christmas
shopping this week. She follows the
custom of the late Queen Victoria in
having the tradesmen submit their
wares for her inspection at Bucking-

selections. Princess Victoria, how

Christmas buyers, and recently she
was seen in many of the West End
shops selecting gifts for her rela-
tives and friends. Queen Alexandra
sends one style of Christmas card
to all her friends and relatives. This
year the souvenir will mark an inter-

GOVERNOR JOHNSON SEES SOME
| THING SUSPICIOUS IN FIGURES.
Railroad Commission Asked to Probe
Records Of Minneapolis & st. Louis
in Effort to Establish Claim to More
Taxes or to Clear Mystery Of De-
stroyed Accounts.

At the request Of Governor Johnson
the state railroad and warehouse COM
mission will Investigate the accounts Of
the Minneapolis & St. Louis ROAD in an
effort to determine whether or not re-
bates have been granted by the road
within the last three years. The re-
quest of the governor is made in a let
ter to the commission yesterday after
noon and it follows an investigation
into the records Of the road made by
Public Examiner Kerst, followed by
report by the public examiner to Gov
ernor. Johnson.
In his report to the governor, Mr..
Kerst alleges that the accounts Of the
st. Louis road show that the sum Of
$38,O76.l5 was deducted from the gross
earnings reported to the state of Min
nesota for taxation and that the
records necessary that proper check
might be made on the company's re-
turns have been destroyed for the en-
tire period. Taxes due on certain drafts
issued in favor Of A. E. Clark and
George w. Sewers for illegal expenses
and expenditures were not paid by
| the company owing to the company g
failure to report the drafts and it is
alleged that the state was the loser thru
the transaction of $1,523.
