and Red Rivers
Ballingkr May Close Minnea-
polls and West St. Paul

Some discussion has been arous-
ed today over the possibility of
Moorhead being not included in
the Indian treaty Of 1851. The
treaty reads that the dry terri
tory under the first treaty of 1851
includes all territory between the
Mississippi and a line beginning
at the junction of the Buffalo and
the Red river of the North. If
the line followed the Buffalo river
south it swings out to the east OF
Moorhead, and while Georgetown
is included, Moorhead would In
that case be entirely outside of
the dry territory.

Walter Finch & Co.;-We look for

Clement Curtis & Co.: We can see
no reason to change our opinion that
wheat is a sale on the advances.
Logan & Bryan: Would avoid sell
ing corn on dips but the selling side
of this wheat market on hard spots
should be safe, and profitable so long
as the big movement keeps up.

CONDITIONS IN BERLIN.

Suppress disturbances without
mercy" we're Police Commissioner
Won Jagow's orders in Berlin yesterday.
The police followed out their instruct.
ions to the letter. They rode down
and sabered nercilessly wherever a
small group Of people had gathered in
the district Of Moabit.
The result OF the severe repressivc
measures taken by the police was that
scores OF persons, whether partici,
pants, onlookers, or mere passersby,
were bruised or wounded during the
course of the evening. The correspon
dents OF Reuters Telegram Company
the New York Times, the New York
World, and the New York Sun were
among the victims while watching
the progress Of events from motor
car.
The police swept down upon them
with drawn sabers, apparently without
provocation. The Reuter- representa-.
tive was wounded severely in both
hands, while the other correspondent:
were badly bruised. They were saved
from further injury by dashing at full
speed to the nearest first aid
station, where their wounds were
bandaged
From O'Clock in the evening every
saloon in the locality was closed, by
order of the authorities. Orders also
were given that windows of house:
must remain closed; otherwise the
police would fire, whether with or with.
out provocation. Owing to the demo:
Iition of the street lamps, the police
carried magnesium torches, the glarins
light from which heightened the effect
OF the riotous scenes.

NeW York Democrats.

Rochester, n. Y, Sept. 29.-Judge
Alton b. Parker, rs temporary chair
man of the New York state demo
cratic convention, delivered speech
today. Among other things he said;
Today there are political prophets
who predict for us speedy coming
Of II dictator. There are in our be-
loved country advocates OF the policy
gradually to take from the people
home rule powers and confer them
upon the federal government. In
deed, president OF the United States
has said that if We fail to increase the
federal power, we show signs of i'm
potence.
Judge Parker attacked the tariff,
declaring that although the republi.
can platform of 1905 did not promise
reduction downward in SO many
words, it was phrased SO as to intimate
this was the purpose OF the party.
Judge Parker asserted that big cor
porations are the most useful public
devices ever originated by man. A
great majority OF them, he said, are
honestly conducted, and those that
arc dishonest were made so by their
officers and not by the business sys-
tenn which permitted their existence.
Judge Parker said the republican
national machine has received the
moneys Of the corporate and lndlvl-
dual beneficiaries OF the tariff, and
in return has compelled Congress to
keep high The tariff rates. And Presl-
dent Taft has admitted it in his
speeches.
For the first time in quarter OF a
century the democracy OF New York
perfected Il temporary organization OF
its state convention here without a
single delegate knowing who would
lead the fight in the coming state cam
paign. And it was admitted by all
leaders that the reason for this, is the
action of Theodore Roosevelt in as
Stunning control OF the republican party
in the state.
Because the leaders had been una.le
to decide upon a ticket, it was deter
mined that a recess would be taken
until tomorrow at p. m.

The regulation of the New York
board OF health forbidding the sale
without prescription OF patent medi-
cines containing morphine, cocaine
and combinations OF these with other
harmful substances, ought to do much
toward safeguarding the public from
the effects OF it's own indiscretion. No
people, it is safe to say, have the drug
habit more firmly fixed on them than
the Americans. Cures Of every kind
are freely sold and administered at will
for all kinds OF real or imaginary disor-
ders. 1t is no exaggeration to say that
patent medicines have numbered about
as many victims as alcohol-in fact,
there is an inordinate amount OF alco-
holm many of them. The national
health is seriously menaced by such
practices.

THE SECOND DISTRICT.

The hearing OF evidence as to the
wholesale charges of fraud that have
been made was yesterday commenced
bv the committee in Norfolk investi-
eating the Young-Maynard Congress
sional primary.
The entire day and until 10 O'Clock
last night vas spent in hearing wit
nesses produced by the citizens conn-
sci. In all, SO witnesses were heard.
or these, % substantial men testified
that they cast their ballot for Maynard
at the Second precinct in the Second
ward. According to the returns from
that precinct Maynard was given but
10 votes there:to 500 for Young. The
others who testified were among those
who ncre,recordcd as voting, when as Il
matter of fact they had not Aside
from this, it was shown that there are
more than 100 others who arc recorded
as having voted at the precinct who
cannot now be accounted for. Young
defeated Maynard in the primary by
As votes on the face of the returns.
The testimony in the investigation
must be all in by Saturday OF this week
us the investigating committee must
report to the state democratic central
committee on Tuesday. That will give
it but one day in which to formulate its
report, and it is plain that but Il com
parativcly few OF the witnesses will be
able to testify and much OF the appar-
ent fraud uncarthed cannot be proved
or disprovsd by testimony.
Asked last night when he thought he
could get through with his witnesses.
Attorney Billisoly, OF counsel Tor the
citizens. replied that it would take at
least six months should the light be
turned on fully. There is no power 10
compel one to testify before the COM
mittee, and those who are summoned
do not always respond. On account
of the unwillingness Of some of the
witnesses and their hardness in arriving
the investigation proceeded little
slowly at times.
The hearing of counter charges by
Maynard to those filed by Young will
be heard in the morning, and then
there will be still other things to inves-
tipate

violently to one side. Her dress, from
neck to ankles, was polka-dotted with
holes the size of cent. These holes

knife, for there was not the sign OF a
scorch about them. Underneath each
perforation, however, was large blister

today opened street kitchen in Naples
to provide for those who have been
made destitute by the cholera epidemic

Thousands of persons have been
thrown out of employment by the cpl

shipping industry. A prolongation Of
the disease, will, it is admitted on all
sides, result in the serious financial
Gripping of Naples and force wholesale

In addition to supplying needed food
for the sufferers, the street kitchens are
also intended to give the people need
