Press Comment


Glendale Leader: Hon. L. B. Hanna
was given a royal reception by the
citizens Of Fargo. The affair was non-
in honor of an honorabIe citizen who
had Just been honored by the people
Of HI state.
Lisbon Free Press; The latest and
most authentic unoficial returns indt-
cate Hanna's nomination for governor
on the republican ticket by a fair plu-
rality of first n second choice votes,
something over 1000.
Hanna made a clean campaign, and
he would not attack Buchanan or
Johnson nor allow his aids to in any
manner make scurrilous charges
against his competitors. This was
quite different from the methods en-
ployed by the state progressive league
and particularly his opponents in Ram
sey county, who went to great lengths
to undermine his influence and char
acter.

Ely KILLING.

In Richmond. Va, one Of the papers
ran a 1y-killing contest. The total
number OF dead and defunct typhoid
carriers reached 100000. One little
girl-with the aid Of a lot Of her friends
no doubt turned in a score OF nearly
100000. The record was made in two
weeks.
Presumably only q small portion of
the people entered the contest. Had
everyone rome on a hy-swatting jam
bores the total would have reached
into the billions.

Bearish foreign news and favorable con-
ditions In the spring wheat states gave
a shock to traders who had bought on
Saturday in expectation of bullish war
news and the idea that a rally was due
and they started in early to unload their
supplies. The pressure of sales drove
prices down l41hc before they were
checked by covering. but the net loss
for the day was ss8%c. The United States
visible increased $4,000 for the week.
against $4,000 increase for the same
week last year. and Minneapolis mills
were reported to be good buyers. Corn
was easy early in the day, but under un-
favorable weather conditions and predic-
tions. with small country offerings, rallied
TO a close unchanged to &c net higher
Oats were quiet but steady, the change
in prices from Saturday being only &c de-
cline
Trading in the coffee market covered
large proportion Of switches, and as re-
suit prices were irregular. All the foreign
markets reported declines. and Brazilian
operators were credited with being SELL
ers, while European houses also contrib
uted to the pressure. The close was at

carried prices TO new high records for the

12.ssc. against 10.34c and 1o.62c, the low
records OF last month. These figures

NO MOTOR INTERVENTION
Minority Stockholders Petition
Denied.

Judge Hough, in the United States Dis
trict Court. yesterday denied the applica-
ton Of representatives OF several groups
Of minority stockholders Of the United
States Motor Company to intervene in the
suit which has resulted in the appoint
ment of n receivership. He also denied an
application on behalf of minority stock
holders OF the Columbia Motor Car Com
pany for the elimination Of that company.
as a subsidiary, from the proceedings, on
the ground that II was presumably SOL
vent. Judge Hough expressed the opinion
that where one corporation has so man
aged or mismanaged. without allegations
of conscious dishonesty, the affairs OF
another corporation as to produce inabil-
ity to pay obligations. and where a large
part OF the assets Of the controlling cor
poration consists Of stock in the managed
corporation, the official willingness of the
directors Of the latter to become parties
10 suit against the controlling corpora
ton binds the stockholders, even though
the managed corporation may be individ-
ually solvent.
In denying the application to intervene
on the ground Of lack Of jurisdiction and
insufficiency OF the allegations contained
in the bill of complaint. Judge Hough
quoted the proceedings in the Metropoll-
tan case. The action of the various de-
PENDANT companies in answering the COM
plant brought by the Brown Sharpe
Manufacturing Company, of Rhode ISL
and practically constituted waiver OF
Jurisdiction, which bound the stockhold-
ers and made applications to intervene
unnecessary and improper.
The creditors Of the United States Motor
Company and its subsidiary companies
have generally deposited under the plan
of reorganization. Out OF the debts pro-
vided for In the plan, 81 100000 In round
figures, over 100000 has been actually
deposited, and large additional amount
is in process of deposit large amount
of stock has likewise been deposited, and
the first instalment of sums payable on
il has beer paid.
Arrangements have been made, subject
only to the working out OF details, 10

ganzed company as its president, and to
include among the properties or the re
organized company the property or the
