harvester Trust pissolution.

Washington, Nov. ll.-Representatives
of the department of justice and the
International Harvester Co., known as
the harvester trust, continued their con.
ferences yesterday over the question Of
the disintegration OF the corporation. AS
sistant to the Attorney General Fowler
and Edgar A. Bancroft, general counsel,
and John r Wilson OF the harvester
company, discussed the question for sew
eral hours without coming to a definite
conclusion.
When the negotiations looking to the
dissolution Of the company began sew
eral weeks ago, Attorney General Wick
ersham suggested a plan of disintegra
ton, embodying conditions which the
government mostly likely would insist
should be complied with.

AMUSEMENT NOTES.
aThe Missouri Grip at Opera House Next
Thursday Evening.

The character of "Zeke Dobson," the
country boy in "The Missouri Girl" is
one of unique conception. Among the
many representations of the rural types
offered to the theatre going public, there
are but few limited cases where the
author has even attempted to portray
this interesting character as he is seen
in real life.
The stage character of the farmer is so
thoroughly impressed on our minds that
it is almost impossible for US to inn

DR.. Smith and DR.. Stanton, the latter

They were in great abundance and last

half inch Of snow covered the ground,

The veteran farmers have renewed
their old predictions that a heavy snow

the report of crop conditions issued by
General Agent H. j. Wagon of the Min.

Although rain would be beneficial,
crops will not suffer because of lack

The report says: During the past

for the growth of all grains. There

light showers extending as far west az

temperature ranging from 40 to IS de,

previous years.
