whose protests against the extension
of these containers were heard before
the former city council on several oc-
casions.
Mr.. Crum talked at length on the
subject presenting to the commits
sioners a large number of legal deci-
sions which ne felt showed the ques-
ton rested with the city commits
sion.
Several of The Fifth ward residents
present testified as to the atmospheric
condition Of the immediate vicinity
of the contstners and the general lar
ger to human life existing from their
operation. Preceding Mr.. Crum's talk
Commissioners Jordan introduced an
ordinance defining when gas works
are a nuisance and providing for Civ
ing notice 20 abate the same. with the
provision Hf a penalty.
The ordinance a placed on it's
first reaGing and further discussion
of the matter will probably be heard
at its second reading a week hence.
Lights Taken Over.
Secretary Hardy of the commercial
club appeared before the commission
asking the city to take over the sew
eral strings of lights which were used
for decorative purposes on the streets
during the times of conventions. The.
expense of their maintenance has been
somewhat more of a burden than the
commercial club could shoulder.
TIE club turned over all the strings
and about $500 worth of receipted bills
which were incurred in their prepara-
tiou. The lights at present are in
storage in the fire department and
wore duly accepted by the city.
Mr.. Hardy and H. Nv. Gearey of the
board of park commissioners request
ed the removal OF all buildings be-
longing to the city In Island park with
the exception OF the old water works
building across from ST. Johns hos
pital. This the park commission In
tends to equip as a rest room with
a. few showers for the members of the
Tennis club.
The old water works still contains
some machinery which was ordered
inspected by Mayor Emery, Commits

UNABLE To TELL
CAUSE OF Death
INQUEST OVER BODY OF HENRY
GEESE FAILS TO REVEAL
MUCH INFORMATION.

Grand Forks, N. D., May 14.-That
Henry Giese came to his death by
some means not known, but evidently
through an act Of violence, was the
substance of the verdict reached by
the corners jury which heard the tes-
timony in the case yesterday. The
jury was composed of George Sails
bury, Ole. Hoimoe and Theodore
Thompson. .t
Several witnesses were called to
testify, but little new light was shed
upon the case. Sheriff Benson told
about the position of the man when
found and of the fruitless search
which was made to find his clothes.
DR.. Ruediger told of the post NOR
tenn examination. He said that the
examination had failed to reveal the
cause of death, but showed clearly
that it was not caused by an act of
violence. He suggested that death
might have been the result of the de-
cided curvature of the spine which
made Giese a hunchback. He thought
it possible that some disease had been
working away for a long time and had
finally paralyzed the lower part of his
body. This was offered as a possible
explanation of the fact that he had
orawled some distance. That he had
.crawled was shown by the bruises on
his elbows and knees and the scratches
on his body. No explanation was
offered of the fact that he was nude,
the only conjecture being that the
mar had gone insane. stripped him
self and then crawled to the place
where he was found, and died.
Would Not Give Residence.
Christ Void and George Pritchard.
~bartenders on the east side, told of
knowing Giese while he was there.
According to their story he had been
in East Grand Forks about two weeks.
When he came there he had about $45
in cash which he deposited at the
Russell saloon. He drew part of this
every day and on April 80, drew the
last SIS, saying that he was going to
return home and go to work. He was
seer two days later, not having left
the city when he intended. He was
not seen again.
Mr.. Void testified that Giese had
avoided telling where he was from,
that he merely stated that he was
Grating a blowing outfit, but that
when questioned as to what place, had
turned the conversation in some other
direction.
He also testified that the deceased
had not drank heavily while in East
Grand Forks, and had never appeared
under the influence of liquor. He
further stated that Giese had not APP
peared to be of a morose disposition,
and showed no signs of insanity. He
described the man as a quiet but So
ciable fellow.

Chicago Gossip,

Chicago, May 14.-Gossip on wheat
after the close was very bearish. Few
traders could see anything on which
to pin hopes for more than a small
reaction from last nights close, de-
spite the fact that the deferred flu
lures were within a fraction of the low
point of the season. A majority adj
mitted h a it was too late materially
to lower the crop prospects in the
southwest and a bumper winter wheat
crop was practically assured Bulls,
however, believe that the spring wheat
crop will ooner of later come to grief
and higher prices result. A continued
easy tone is looked for in the corn
market by conservative traders, who
say they car see nothing to cause any
material advance from the present
level, especially as farmers show more
disposition to sell and larger receipts
are looked for next week. Cash sales
were $4,000 bushels wheat, Els, 900
bushels corn and 165, 900 bushels oats.
No export sales reported. Deliveries
wheat, $4,000 bushels; corn, 10, 200
bushels; oats, 10000 bushels and $50
lard.

Prica Current,

Cincinnati, May 14.-The southwest
has suffered locally by drought while
the north sections in North Dakota
have had excessive rainfa1ls. Soil con-
ditions throughout the surplus produc-
ing states are nearly perfect as it is
possible to expect and with favorable
weather during the next ten days the
effect of the late season will be over
come. The anticipated movement of
grain from farmers hands after spring
seeding and planting will not be ex-
ceedingly heavy for wheat, cor or
oats. A moderate movement is indi-
Gated throughout Iowa and wisconsin.

reductions in the number of beef pro-
ducing cattle on the farms at this date

SEEMINGLY KNEW ITS VALUE
Moose Refused to Come Within Range
of Hunters Rifle Until the AUTO
Had Been Raised.

A parsfmonious sportsman, shoot
ing over some wild lands in Nova
Scotia, being DESTROYS to bring down
a moose, started out to engage a guide
and moose caller. The usual pay of a
Nova Scotia guide is two dollars a
day; but the sportsman in question
var too mean to pay the regular
rates, and finding a skillful guide, one
Louis the Indian, temporarily out Of
a job, after much wrangling managed
to jam him down to one dollar a day,
and the two started out into the
woods. All the conditions were favor
able to finding a moose, but, although
each day before sunrise Louis the In
dian took his birchbark cone, and,
placing it to his lips, whinned and
grunted in imitation Of a moose, there
was no answering call, no antlered
giant Of the forest stalked into view.
After twenty-odd days of this sort of
effort without a result. the sportsman
grew both impatient and suspicious,
and, calling the guide to his tent, he
began to upbraid him.
Louis" he said, Il don't under
stand this kind Of business. Here we
are in the best moose country In Nova
Scotia. You are considered one of
the best callers in,the province. Every
day you go out and call and call, yet
no moose comes. What does It
mean?"
The willy Indian took his pipe out
Of his mouth tor q moment and smiled
a smile Of infinite cunning. Me don't
know what matter he said. Maybe
moose no like dollar call"
The very next day. our sportsman
having raised the ante to two dollars. a
moose came to the, call"-the right
call this time. Louis was a sly-In-
dian,-Judge.
