Range Sand Brick Company.

Under the above caption is in
course of formation company for
the manufacture of brick, in which
a number of leading Virginians and
several Minneapolis parties are in
terested.
The main offices of the company
will be at Virginia, while the plant
will be near Sand Lake, where the
company controls an amount OF
land containing huge deposits OF
the finest sand suitable for their
purpose.
The idea of the company is to
make of the business an extensive
one, it being considered that with
the natural advantages to be found
and the shipping facilities offered
from this point they should be able
to control an enormous territory
not only in northern Minnesota but
in the states to the west as we'll az
the Canadian trade.

It is the strong and varying current
in the English channel that renders
the crossing so difficult, even. in fact,
for vessels. While the distance from

TO QUESTION SHIPPERS.
Railroads May Ask Them About Their
Profits.

tNAeAAt
Chicago, H., Sept. l.-coincident with
the closing OF the testimony for the
Santa Fe system before the special ex.
aminers for the interstate commerce
commission. and the statement from the
roads statistieian that the increases in
freight rates asked would net the Santa
Fe only s94 900 increase yearly in earn
ngs, there came yesterday a suggestion
that railroads, now on the defensive,
might change their tactics and seek to
compel the shippers. who opposed the
advance in freight rates. 10 declare how
much they profit on the different com
modities under consideration. A request
from Attorney F. j. Norton counsel for
the Santa Fe. for the names Of the
different associations Of shippers repre-.
scented in the hearing, that he might
question certain Of the shippers, gave
color to reports that shippers would
be asked about their profits.
One prominent railroad man declared
that the railroads "might well ask the
shippers what their profits are on the
commodities affected by the proposed in
crease in freight rates, so that the
commission may know whether they are
seriously disturbed or not BY the In.
crease by which they are fighting"
While no definite statement Of such
an intent has been made It is believed
the railroads will ask many questions
Of shippers, concerning their profits and
the return on their invested capital
