Fergus Falls. Five big masonry
dams in the vicinity of Fergus Falls
were washed away. First the big city
concrete dam which furnished power
for the electric light plant was washed
out.
Two men who were sleeping in a
nearby house were awakened by the
noise of rushing water and noticed
water pouring up through the cracks
of the floor.
They hurried on up the hill where
the electric light station was located,
but before they had reached it the
plant was washed away.
The city dam was 80 feet high and
located one and half miles north of
the city. The water went with fury
and the water works dam, which is
just outside of the city limits, gave
way. A bridge which spans the river
a short distance down the stream also
was carried away. A number of build
ings and other structures in the path
of the flood were destroyed. Base
ments of buildings in this city are
flooded, but no houses are known to
have been taken.
Third Dam Washed Away.
The torrent of water encountered a
third dam, known as the Wright dam.
This dam furnished power for two
large flour mills. The water washed
around the west end of the mills and
partly carried away one of them.
A fourth dam, known as the Red
river mill dam, located a short dis
lance down the stream, gave way.
The Northern Pacific bridge, which
spans the river at this point, was
threatened for a time, but remained
intact
The fifth dam was the wooden mill
dam. 1t furnished power for the local
wooden mills. The dam remained
standing but the water washed around
the south side and rendered it USE
less.
its. On account of the city dam, which
furnished power for the electric light
plant, being washed out, every wheel
in this city is shut down. The public
schools were forced to close, owing to
the lack of water supply
Fergus Falls would be in very bad
way were it not for the fact that a
large concrete dam, known as the Day.
ton Hollow dam, was constructed five
miles below the city last year. This
dam takes the flow of water from the
Red river and Pelican river and fur
nishes 1000 horsepower A line will
be Immediately constructed to this
dam and the lighting of the city re-
sumed. The city water system and
the insane hospital have auxiliary
steam plants and these will be put
into operation at once.
The loss to this city in the destruc-
ton of the electric light plant will be
$4,000. 1t may also be liable for the
destruction of the other dam, but this
is not probable. The total loss is esti-
mated at 100000.

TO GRIND CANADIAN WHEAT.
New Tariff Law Provides for Domestic
Sale of By-Products.

Minneapolis.-The Minneapolis -four
mills will again be grinding Canadian
wheat before another crop has been
raised in the United States. This is
the opinion of millers who have given
close study to the new tariff bill and
the drawback provisions therein. The
great obstacle in the way of handling
the imported raw material has been
the disposal of the by-product. The
bonding law on the statute books prior
to the passage of the new tariff act
hold that the entire product of the i'm
ported wheat should be exported, and
the plan was therefore practically I'M
workable. The mills of Minneapolis
did grind considerable wheat in bond
and under drawback regulations, but
that was in time of an extraordinary
general disarrangement of world
prices.
Drawback Provision.
The drawback provision now apply.
ing to millers and which will be partic-
ularly important to the mills of Min
uedpOllS, Dululu, DundlO, NEW 1OTh,
and other centers close to the Canadian
border, will permit the miller to enter
the worlds markets. buy wheat, grind
it in bond and export the -four. The
by-product may then be taken from
the bonded mill and sold for domestic
consumption upon the payment by the
miller of the duty that would be as
sessed by the government if the by
products had been imported. The mil
lers were contending for this while
the tariff bill was before congress.
Miller Sizes Situation.
AS to the ability of the millers to
import wheat under this more liberal
provision, the Northwestern Miller,
which has been investigating the mat
ter, says:
Calculations have shown that un-
der 20 per cent ad valorem duty ap-
plying to by-products from foreign
wheat, when the latter are withdrawn
for domestic consumption, foreign
wheat at Az cents bushel under the
American market, can be ground by
the American miller without loss. AT
any price representing a greater diff
ference than Az cents there would
be proportionate profit to the Ameri.

ESTATE VALUED AT $4,000.
Governor Johnson's Property Is Estl-

st. Peter. 1T is estimated that
Governor Johnson left an estate val
ued at $4,000, which includes his
house, said to be worth about $1,000;
life insurance, $4,000, and $500 in
cash, the balance being in various in
vestments
1t was believed that the governor
had accumulated a much larger for
tune, especially when it is considered
that he received 5000 for every one of
his Chautauqua lectures. 1t has been
found, however, that most of this
went for expenses.
In planning for the future it ap-
pears that the governor had decided
to accept a proposition made by an
Eastern lecture bureau, which had
offered him 100000 for a course of
lectures extending over a period of
six months. 1t was then his intention
to tour Europe and gather more ma
terial for additional lectures.
