absorbed by the Federal Steel com
pany and stlll later by the present
United States Steel company. During
this time the Illinois Steel company
became further indebted to me,
Had MI. Gates remained the presi-
dent Of the Illinois Steel company |
believe he would have given me an
honest settlement. but his successor
was disposed 20 reverse avery honest
obligation that Gates had incurred
and to defeat my claims against them
they transferred this note to this Of
fce clerk Loder and sued it in his
name in a New York City court so
that ! could not set up my offsets and
have all adjldicated in that case.
Thereupon the claims heretofore due
me were sued in the state court at
Ottawa, O., and this alleged l. oder
claim garnisheed in that court The
claim was set up in the Ohio court
that Loder was a mere Agurehead and
that the Illinois Steel company was
the real party in interest and that IL
had simply transferred the note to
Loder to avoid giving me credit with
the amount they owed me.
The Illinois Steel company caused
the case at Ottawa to be transferred
from the state court 20 the United
States court at Toledo. o.. where the
case is still pending and has not been
tried and in which court the garnishee
process is still standing under which
| Loder is prevented from receiving
any money whatever from me until
the claims which heretofore had
against the Illinois Steel company are
tried and determined
'rhe Illinois Steel company has ad-
mitted in the case al Toledo that
Loder IS simply their agent and that
they are the real owners of the claim
which Loder bases his Judgment upon.
The Illinois Steel company were
ordered by the court at Toledo TO sub.
nit their own books ana records 10
examination, preparatory to trying
the Toledo case This they refused
to do. On account OF their refusal an
order was served on the Illinois Steel
ompany permitting us to take the

Pany Officers az tsiair 6iiices in chi.

Nov 18th, 1897, your honor able biy,iy
has authorized the payment of bills

bers Of said board shall be elected as
provided by law. The attorney gen
eral advised me that II was LSy duty
to appoint said board until the law

and that the old method OF selecting
members OF this board by state con-
vention composed Of delegates from
farmers imtitutes had been repealed
hy the conetitrtion.
This is cne of the important boards
of the state, and | believe that pro-
vision should be made for electing the
members OF this board by the farm

and that some equitable apportion-
ment should be made of the member

state
also recommend such compensa-
ton to the active officials Of the
board as will justify careful attention

of the agricultural interests OF the

DESERT RAT DIES
Exposure and Poor Food Ends Life of
 Derelict.

klNGMAN, Oct. 2s. The dead body of R Frazier, an old prospcctor famil iarly known as "Scotty," was found near Music Mountain last Tuesday morning and n courier was sent to Blackberry with the news. Coroner Anson II. Smith and Deputy Sheriff J.. P. Gideon went up to Blackberry Tues. day night and the next morning start. cd out to make an investigation of the death.
 They met David. Garrett coming in from his mines at Gold Basin, who, having discovered the dead body. load ed it into his wagon and was bringing it to Blackberry.
 An inquest was held on the remains Wednesday afternoon and it was as. certained that Frazier had been in Blackberry Saturday last and returned to his mines at Music Mountains late in the evening The night was stormy and if was thought that he had perish. cd from cold and exhaustion.
 He was about sixty years of age and was said to have been demented for many years. For several years he has been living in the Music Mountain section prospecting and farming. He lived poorly, at times having almost nothing to eat.
 Some of the miners who knew him say that at times he subsisted on mes quite beans and green melons or squashes. Nothing is known of his relatives and as he had no means the body was buried under direction of the coroner.

GRAZING RATES REDUCED.
Price Reduction on Wool Responsible
 for Cut.

WASlIl NOTION, Oct. 2s. - Following out statement made year ago at the meeting of inc National Wool Growers Association in Salt Lake City, Clifford Pinchot, Forester. and \. r. Potter. assistant forester m charge of the branch of grazing in the Unit. ed States forest service. have just an. nounccd a reduction of 10 to lj per cent in the rates for snccp grazing on the national forests of the west. This general reduction in the schedule of grazing rates will take effect for the coming season of 1909.
 The changes in market conditions which have made the sheep business less profitable this pas, year, especially the greatly reduced prices offered for wool and the depreciation in the value of mutton, make the announcement of great interest not only to those who are interested in the sheep business but tO the men of every allied indus. try. In 1907, when the promises for a reduced schedule were made it was "''h Nh' b'A"''h 'h' stockmen and the forest service that the grazing rates would not be changed for minor fluctuations in the market which would naturally occur from year to year, but apply only in case of rad ical or unusual changes.
 The new schedule does not affect the eases where the minimum charge of cents per head has already been nwasilpoAz .fcSVffucIIzr
 allowed ar n specially low rate has been fixed on account of some local condition. ln most eases the revised fees will mcfn reduction of about one cent per head
 In fixing the rates for grazing by different kinds of stock, the local con ditions, the effect of grazing by differ cnt kinds of stock on forest growth the demand for the use of range b, owners of different kinds of stock, tho needs of the homesteader, and the pro fits of the business have been taken into consideration.
