CONFERENCE on,

Fargo. N. D., Sept. 30-A confer
ence OF the railroad commission OF
North Dakota with the officials of the
railroads doing business in this state,
Is being held today in st. Paul, when
the grievance of the shippers of the
state relative to the existing distance
tariffs will be presented and a reduc-
ton asked.
The Fargo Commercial club, which
was the instigator of the fight against
the present rate, will be represented
by Lieut.. Gov. r. s. Lewis, president
OF the club, and Geo. Hall, of the Hall
Robertson Hardware company, of this
city. They will probably leave here
this evening and are going at the in
vitation OF Chairman C. s. Deisem of
the railroad commission, who at the
meeting held in this city on Septem-
Der for the purpose of hearing fur
Their arguments Of the club why the
tariff should be lowered, thought that
1t would be advisable for the club to
be represented.
The distance tariffs used by the
railroads were found to be thirty
three per cent higher than the tariff
for the same service in Minnesota
and the club. which is representing
the shippers of the entire state, has
asked for a reduction OF twenty per
cent, which. II secured, will mean
thousands Of dollars annually to the
shippers Of North. Dakota.
What the action of the railroads
will be in the. matter cannot be
guessed, and while it is the opinion
Of many that they will concede to the
demands of the North Dakota ship
pers, the club is fully prepared to
carry the matter further in case such
a step Ia necessary.

the Fargo station Mr.. Hughes had all
the doors locked. intending to make a
thorough search Of the train before
allowing the passengers to get out
Sheriff Hunt. however, who was at
the station to welcome the slope Wis
itors as president of the Fargo Taft
club, stated that rather than have the
great crowd of enthusiastic Republi-
cans on the train put to the embar-
rassment Of being searched he would
personally 60 good for the amount If
necessary. He convinced Mr.. Hughes
that the amount would be made up
and the doors were unlocked and the
crowd poured out, many of them en-
Lirely ignorant of the trouble.

Fernann Kennedy, 9 years of age, had
one of his arms broken in three plac-
es and badly mangled besides. De-
spite the seriousness Of the accident
the youthful patient was reported to
be progressing nicely today, at st.
Luke's hospital.
1t appears that the dump car which
Is used to convey gravel to the con-
crete mixer was left loose and during
Sunday boys had considerable fun
with the car running 1t up and down
the incline, in other words using it as
a toboggan. During the day the boys
were seriously warned that they were
in danger, but all to no effect, the
thing was too tempting. Late in the
afternoon young Kennedy appeared
and In a few minutes while riding
the car he fell into depression and
before he could get out of the way q
wheel passed over his arm. Two doc
tors who happened to be near saw the
predicament of the little fellow, pick
ed him up and rushed him of to the
hospital. The unfortunate boys mo-
Their is widow who is in great an
