Hibbing, MINI, Dec. 4.-The little
home OF Mrs. Elizabeth Hukari Liend
will not tumble into the great pit Of
the Oliver Iron Mining company, for
Mrs. LEND has won a notable legal
victory over a big subsidiary of the

Hughes late yesterday granted a per

company and ordered the company to
pay the costs OF the suit. Mrs. Liend
owned a little home near the Great
Sellers open pit Of the Oliver company.
AS mining and stripping operations ad-
vanced, peril came.
CASE LONG FOUGHT.
II work was not halted, the dwelling
would topple into the excavation.
Mrs. Liend substituted courage for
money and took her troubles into
court.
The case was long fought, and many
eXpedients were adopted by the cor
poration. The company is ordered to
cease cutting into or obstructing Mrs
Lends property. Substantially, the
decision applies only to the premises
Of Mrs. Lend and the streets adjoin.

RAILROAD PAYS BIG FEE
Burlington Gives Assessment to State
Under Protest.

Springfield, Ill, Dec 4-One of the
largest fees ever received into the
state treasury of Illinois was paid
under protest yesterday afternoon to
Secretary of State C. ]. Doyle by the
Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Rail-
road company.
\ check for S11O,S85 was paid to
Secretary Doyle as fee for an extern
sion for 80 years of the roads char
ter in this state. Attorneys for the
c.. B. & Q. contend the road is oper-
ating under perpetual charter, but
to be on the safe side they decided to
take advantage of the recent act of
the legislature allowing corporations
the right to extend their charters so
years.
The law in question is silent on the
subject of fees in connection with such
extensions, but Secretary Davis held
tre fee must be paid.
Attorneys for the railroad company
have already given notice that action
will, be begun in the supreme court
to recover the fee.

FUTTER AND EGG BOARD
SUSPENDS QUOTATIONS

Chicago. Dec. 4.-''No more quota

startling information given to the mar
ket editors today when they applied TO
Assistant Secretary Halem Of the Chi.
cago butter and egg board for the
days quotations. Hale declined to
discuss the matter, but the action of
the board was said 70 be connected
with a government suit in which the
board is charged with conspiring to
FIX prices. Dealers say the market is
now an open one, and prices quoted
IN market reports will be those at
which actual sales will be made. Dur
ing the forenoon sales of extra cream
cry butter were made at from SO TO 81.
Vice President Mitchell of the
board said the action of the board had
nothing to do with the government
suit.
We dissolved all quotations by
committees until March," explained
Mitchell. Prices will be established
by the old method OF receiving opers

was done some years ago. II We like
the change. 1t will be made perma
