BARLEY SALES BREAK RECORD
ONE MILLION DOLLARS WORTH
SOLD in MINNEAPOLIS IN
FOUR DAYS.

Minneapolis, Sept. 21.-Farmers at
tracted by the high prices of barley
are sending in their grain In such
quantities that over s1,Ooo,OOo worth of
barley was sold at the Minneapolis
chamber of commerce during the first
four days Of this week. A total OF
1,012 car loads. or 1.24S,300 bushels,
has been received in the city during
the week, and most of it has been sold
Immediately upon receipt.
Despite the heavy increase in the
shipment Of barley, which is cutting
down the shipment Of wheat because
of the lack of cars and facilities for
moving more, the price of barley has
not sagged. Solid train loads Of barley
are coming into the city every day.
The 500, the Milwaukee and the
Great Northern are bringing in the
greatest amount from North and South
Dakota, while all the other lines, the
Minneapolis & ST. Louis. the Omaha.
the Chicago Great Western, the Rock
Island and the Northern Pacific, are
bringing In more than they ever did
before.
The best grade of barley is drawing
between IS and 80 cents every day
and no evidences of decline in the
price has been noted.

Hallway employees Suit Brought Uns
der New Liability Law.
A complaint has been filed In the
circuit court at Huron in case that
will attract more than passing atten-
ton. The action is that of Elmer G..
Massee against the Chicago & North
western railway, wherein Mr.. Massee
seeks to obtain judgment against the
railway company for $4,000 damages
claimed for the loss OF his right eye
while in the discharge Of his duty as
fireman on locomotive engine for the
Chicago & Northwestern company.
The accident, 1t is alleged, occurred
on March 9, last, when a water gauge
exploded and piece of the glass
struck the plaintiff in the eye, result
ing In the loss of the sight Of one eye
and seriously injuring the other. The
action is brought under the Jaw passed
on Feb. II, 1907, entitled Railway

News OF the Northwest
SOUTH DAKOTA IN THE fight
BOARD ORDERS 2 1-2 CENT FARE
AND RAILROADS WILL TAKE
1T TO COURTS.

Sioux Falls, s. D., Sept. %. - Az
fhough the various railroad companies
concerned are silent as to what their
course Is likely to be with reference to
the action Of the state board of rail-
road commissioners-which at q meet.
Ing here yesterday afternoon reduced
maximum passenger rates on all
standard gauge railroads in South
Dakota from to 2 IL cents per mile
there is an apparently well founded
impression that the roads will carry
the matter into the courts and en-
deavor to have the order of the rail-
road commission set aside.
During the hearing before the rail-
road commissioners representatives Of
the railroads commended that the roads.
80 far as passenger traffic, was con-
cerned, were being operated at loss
In South Dakota even with the three
cent rate, and that reduction of half
cent would be equivalent to the con.
hscation of the property of the rail-
roads by the State of South Dakota.

FOUND LOST BIG GOLD CHUNK
The Story OF Lost Chunk Of Matte Latey Discovered-h
Disappeared Several Years AGO

Have s. T. Mckinney and r, n.
Lewis succeeded in finding the lost
$4,000 SOW" of matte that disasp-
peared some years ago while an old
smelter was managed by the Dead
wood and Delaware Mining company?
This is the question which Is just
now agitating mining men in the
Black Hills. Some years ago when
the furnaces were being emptied, the
matte, which contains considerable
gold, was run out, as is customary in
mining regions. into long trough,
where 1t cooled. The resultant mass
Of matte is known among smelter men
as q SOW" 1t was intended, of
course, to break it up later and send
1t to refinery so the gold could be
extracted.
This "sow" of matter, which was
about nine feet long. three feet wide
and a foot deep, was laid to one side
outside the building. No attention
was paid to 1t, as it was considered
too bulky for any one man to steal,
and the time for breaking it up had
AASt Oh lVCOs w ACA SCo4C E was ludu0
for it later it was found that the spot
where the mass had rested was COW
cred many feet deep with Stag by the
Slovenian workmen employed in the
smelter, who had no idea of it's value
or Importance.
More than that, the men themselves
could not agree as to the exact spot
In which 1t had been placed. Shortly
afterward the smelter was purchased
by the Golden Reward Mining COM
pany, and the story OF the $4,000
chunk OF matte was forgotten until
recently, when it was discovered that
Mckinney and Lewis, strangers in
the country, were at work In the vi
cinity Of the spot where the SOW"
was supposed to be. How they became
aware of the fact that the matte was
at that particular point Is a mystery
upon which the two men refuse to
throw any light
The two men, it became known, had
found unexpectedly good values in the
old dump, and there is little doubt in
the minds of old mining men that
they have found the $4,000 "sow" Of
matte after it had been buried for
many years near the old smelter. The
story Of the lost matte has for years
been familiar one to the older min
ing men of the Black Hills. who have
followed closely the history of the old
smelter, and was known to all the
men who had worked there while the
smelter was under the control of the
Deadwood and Delaware company.
Mckinley and his partner, when
asked if they were fortunate enough
to find the $4,000 chunk of matte, re-
fuse to discuss the matter, and in
variably answer the questioner with a
smile.
. Now that they have completed their
work in the vicinity Of the old smelter
they have arranged to continue similar
operations in another mining region.
The two men for some years past have
devoted their spare time and attention
to working over old Stag and "tailing"

Bug Infested Trees Of the Black

Bug Infested Trees OF the Black
Hills.
The forestry bureau thinks it is in
position to offer to some enterprising
lumberman in the Northwest the best
chance for profitable speculation
that ever has come his way. The bu-
reau is very anxious to curb the bug
pest in the forests Of the Black Hills,
S. D., by removing all of the infested
timber. There is no machinery avail
able by which the bureau may go into
the business of practical numbering,
and SO it Is willing to turn this work,
with the certainty Of big profits, over
to some practical man or firm.
Substantially 100000, 900 feet Of 1ner-
charitable timber, worth, according to
recent reports of government experts,
an average of 81 a thousand, will be
sold for 81 a thousand.
The bug pest has been an issue in
the Black Hills forest reserve for
years, until now 1t threatens to de-
stroy it. Scientists of the government
have studied the pest for long time.
but without discovering any satisfac-
tory remedy. It seems necessary that.
in order to get rid Of the bugs, the In
tested timber must be removed. This
will greatly diminish the reserve, but
is said to be the only way of escape.
A tree vii! live about three years
after the bugs have attacked it, and
when dead it will have a market value
for some two or three years. The
timber to be disposed OF Is nearly all
still alive.
The Milwaukee reads coast line
passes near the northern end Of the
reserve, and the Burlington penetrates
1t as far as Deadwood. Recently the
Burlington has been in communication
with the forest bureau. and there is a
possibility that it will establish four
or five bjg1saw mills in the bug-infest--
ed region, with view to converting
the timber into merchantable form for
the Nebraska markets. Just east OF
the reserve is the Belle Fourche irri-
cation protect.

and continue to superintend the work.
The new co-owners are wealthy BUSH
ness men of Illinois, and 1t is their
intention to supply the capital to In
crease the large interests of the lum-
Der company. The Mclaughlin COM
pany has established at Nahant on the
Burlington south of Deadwood camp
where its lumber trade is handled and
has built up town OF several hundred
inhabitants. The company controls a
vast timber tract in the western part
of the county, and is building rail-
road through into Wyoming. For some
time past the entire product OF the
company has been taken by the Bur-
lington railroad for Its own use, but.
with tie increased facilities, it 10
planned to enter the competitive field
in the Hills. It has been said for
some time that one Of the objects Of
the company was to reach well over
into the timber lands Of Wyoming by
an extension OF its railroad, and this
will now probably be accomplished.

ONLY ONE DEATH IN STORM.
Damage Amounting to $4,000 Done
Wednesday Night.

st. Paul, Sept. 21.-Reports received
here up to last night gave only one
dead as the result of the terrific cleo
trical storm of Wednesday night and
yesterday morning, but they showed
that the disturbance was widespread
and that great losses had been sus-
tanned in various parts of Minnesota
and Wisconin, mainly from the light
ming. The rainfall was very heavy,
and in some places washouts occurred,
but as rule the intermittent charac-
ter Of the rainfall gave the water a
chance to run off without doing seri
GUS damage. Altogether the losses
from the storm are estimated at about
100000, confined principally to live
stock and buildings.
The one fatality reported last night
was the death of Mrs. John Hayes,
wife of farmer living near Buffalo,
MINI. The house was struck by light
Mug and burned, and the woman re-
ceived a shock that later caused her
death. The farmhouse was located
three miles south of Buffalo.
