Valley City, Aug. so so Is there a
coal famine in North Dakota :? The
question has been often asked and
as repeatedly answered IN the mega
tive by dealers and the railroads and
as often in the affirmative by the
man who tries to break into the bust,
ness or order the coal direct. 1t has
been repeatedly charged that in or,
der to enter the coal business in the
state as a retail dealer, the consent,
of the dealers organization was nee
essary and that the Individual car
buyer was out of the running, the
roads absolutely refusing to haul.
coal for any man not in the combine.
There has been some evidences pro-
duced to substantiate this conten-
ton and another bit has been secur-
ed by N. p. Rasmussen, one time mem
Der of the board of state railroad
commissioners and well known farm
er and citizen of Barnes county. vi
He owns an elevator at Darcy and
some time ago he placed an order
with the John Mcleod & Co. grain
commission firm Of Minneapolis for
a car Of coal for use at the elevator.
The commission company wrote him
as follows {. ;sE
Regarding the car OF coal you or
dered, our Duluth Office ordered it
on the Goth (Aug.) as they advised
you, but yesterday the coal company
called them UP and told them they
could not ship the car of coal TO You
at Darcy as there was a regular deal
er there. On receipt of this inform
alton we tried the dealers here and
while they would be willing to ship
the coal, they said they could not
get a shipping company to ship 1t to
anyone but the regular dealers at
Darcy, SO that we do not see how we
can help you out in this matter.
This looks to us like a pretty strong
combine. = 81
Mr.. Rasmussen has sent a copy Of
the above letter to the general man
ager of the Northern Pacific and
asked him how he expects the people
fof North Dakota to secure a supply
OF coal for the winter when his roat
refuses to haul, it and many of thu
dealers are not laying in a suficient
supply some OF them.
| He has taken steps to call the at
ltention of the interstate commere'

| lieves that there is ample evidenc'
Of eonbinea conspiracy in re

Ready for Constitution


PeKing, Aug. 33oAn unusual ser
les of deliberations concerning the
empire began in the summer palace
today. The imperial family believes
the Chinese race is bent on unseat-
ing the Manchns, the present imper-
ial family being of Manchu origin.
The devices adopted by the throne
to remove the distinctions between
the Manchus and Chinese having
failed, the throne contemplates the
samalgamation Of the races and the
course OF action is ready for promul-
cation. The main points follow
Disarmament Of the Manchu ban
3ner troops; daughters Of Cinnamon
of the upper classes to be eligible to
marry into the imperial family; abo-
lition Of the custom Of binding the
feet; Manchus to take surnames like
the Chinese. The government hopes
that within ten years the two races
will be indisting BILE.
The recent comet was seriously
discussed today. The court IS dis
sturbed because OF the universal be-
lief that 4 comet presages a revolu-
ton.

pidly The failing Of her health has
been accompanied by rapid recast
of state developments and BY q re-

of the Tube City Railroad bribery
scandal. to-day when President C S.
Cameron, Of the Pittsburg and Tube
City Railroad, entered plea of nolIe

his trial on charge of a conspiracy to
bribe was called. The plea without
admitting g1llt, subjects Cameron. to
all the consequences of punishment,
had he been found guilty. 1t also acts
as a stay of prosecution, for immedi'
atsly after plea was entered Judge
Frazer announced that final disposI-
tion of this charge against Cameron
will be postponed until after the decl-
sion is rendered on his application for
a new trial on the charge of contempt
and obstruction of public justice of
which Cameron was convicted in Grim.

TEDDY TALKED
PRESIDENT DISCUSSED THE JAP.
ANEsE SITUATION VERY
FREELY.

WASHINGTON, July St Is ex'
pected within a few days President
Roosevelt will announce just what his
preferences are in the carrying out
of the plan Of the war board for send
ing a monster battleshfp fleet to the
Pacific. The President talked very
freely of the Japanese situation to his
advisers and close friends before he
left for Oyster Bay. He felt that he
had accomplished much in his ad-
justment Of the school question in the
Golden Gate city and made 1t clear
that he could not understand the anti
American feeling which had manifest
ed itself in Japan and which appeared
to be on the increase.
The number of diplomatic ex-
changes which had taken place be-
tween the two governments had al
most got on the nerve of Secretary
Root. 1t is known that he feared COM
pIicatlons. He finally took the matter
up with the President and the sltua-
tlon was carefully csnvassed, 1t is
said that the President told Root and
his other cabinet advisers that ia
would not permit the Japanese to
force this government to a position Of
irritation; that Japan had been push.
ed forward prominently among the
of the world by the war
with Russia, SO they let the "jingoes"
have their. way until 1t was a ques-
ton of national honor with the United
States. that when that time came it
would mean war.
