lars worth Of goods were stored in
the house, and to get them out
without any damage to the goods
or to those working in the build
ing, was a problem. Experts
pronounced the building unsafe,
liable to fall at any time, so that
it was like taking ones life in
hand to 60 in the house. The
cause of the trouble was in the
foundatic;: which was not suffi-
cient. The '.>ds / I've been haul
ed away and red in various
places, and the work of repairing
the building will 60 right along.
And while it all seriously inter-
feres with the business of this big
,,ncern, it's affairs will be con-
Quoted without interruption.

perior Company Are Illegal

st Paul. April 12-The bill OF complaint in
which a receivership is asked for the Great North
eru Railway Company by c. H. Venner. OF New
York was fled in the Ramsey County District
Court to-day. The defendants In the action are the
Great Northern Railway Company, the Lake Su-
perior Company. Limited. and the officers Of both
companies.
The burden Of the complaint is that the Great
Northern in forming the Lake Superior Company
attempts to evade the purposes of its charter by
giving the Lake Superior Company control of
securities and properties owned by the Great
Northern, but which under the law the Great
Northern has right to own. particularly mining
and timber lands.
The complainant asks that the agreements be-
tween the Great Northern and the Lake Superior
Company and between the Lake Superior Company
and its trustees be annulIed and aside: that all
the property OF the Lake Superior Company be
transferred to the Great Northern its receiver;
that the Lake Superior Company make a full ac-
counting TO the Great Northern; that the Great
Northern receive Judgment for any balance that
may be due 1t disclosed by the accounting; that
the Great Northern and the other defendants be
enjoned from making any further purchases for
the Lake Superior Company; that the Great North
ern at dispose of all the securities and other
properties held by the Lake Superior Company. and
