parts of Minnesota and North Dako.
ia the practice is to stack less and
thresh from the field without stack
ing. In view Of delay in threshing,
shocks are put up with much care as
a rule. yet. when crowded with work
as farmers there are. too much of the
shocking is not we'll enough done to

STAYED off aeein. This is driving away
help from the north that had been
brought in from distant points. 1t is
stated that n train leaving Fargo
Monday last took away over 500 men
by count.
Estimates are that a third Of the
small grain in the north, yet stands
out Of stack in the fields. The dan.
ger is more Of injury to the quality
than of loss in quantity. One report
SAYS: I'm many counties. particular
ly Ransom. LaMoure, Griggs. Ward
and McHenry. and in practically all
of the territory adjacent to the north
ern border of the state. it is reported
that only a small percentage of the
threshing is done. The supply of
.threshing machines is large enough to
thresh the grain. but without crews to
operate them. it is feared that many
will lie idle.
The conditions respecting the big
flaxseed crop are less serious as the
seed is not so easily damaged as the
small grain is. The gathering Of all
will be done. the main question being
as to the amount of damage to quality
of the grain.

THE FIRST GAME CREATES AMUSEMENT

|. Yesterdays game of ball, the first of the season, between the team from Company II, 3Oth in fantry, and the home boys, was, as might have been expected, quite a ragged piece of playing, and, at the same time, afforded lots of amusement to the spec tatOrs, who were lOthe to quit the field when a cold rain began to fall.
 The score stood eight to five in favor of the Fort boys, and there is really no telling what the count might have been had not the moisture mercifully put all end to the slaughter. Most of the runs were made on errors in fielding and throwing. Company IFS boys were in bet t"r trim than the home team having had time Lo work out in San Francisco before coming her, while the Valdez team had their first practice yesterday with four of their strongest players out of the city.

SUIT TO HALT MERGER.
Washington Authorities Will En-
Deavor to Stop Consolida--
ton of Utilities.

Corporation Counsel E. H. Thomas,
of Washington, has announced that
he will begin proceedings in equity
in the District Supreme Court the

or any outside corporation from Sc
curing control of any District public

cordance with directions issued to
him yesterday by the board of Dis
trict commissioners on motion of En-
gineer Commissioner w. V. Jud5on.
Leaders in the merger and fiancing
movement which has been under dis
cussion for several months last night

garding the contemplated action of
Counsel Thomas, but privately ex-
pressed the opinion that their plans
have been misunderstood by the COM
missioners. They said that their
plans are absolutely in accordance
with the law, and that there is no
reason why they should not be car
ried out.
Meetings of the board of directors
of the Washington-Virginia Railroad
Company, two of the concerns in
cluded in the plans, will be held in
Alexandria November 10 to consider
the merger of the two corporations
under the present plans, which it was
said last night have not been affected
by the commissioners action.

the Maryland-Virginia Company will
also be held in this city November 6:

viding for an authorized bond issue OF
S1OO,OOO,OOO.
The Attorney General of the United
States has been asked by the District
commissioners to cooperate with
them in halting the merger and finan-
cling plans.
