The case may be taken up by the
department of justice,

The decision referred to in the
above dispatch has not been unlocked
Tor here. 1t means that not only
viii the coal properties of Utah be
taken out of competition with other
mines. but that discriminatory freight
rates may have to be adjusted. This
is in line with the Chamber of Com
merce's campaign to lower the coal
rates to western states in order to
open suitable market for the coal
of Mesa and adjoining counties.
1t is regarded by local coal mine
operators as a distinct victory for the
shippers and one of far-reaching i'm
portance to the people of this sec
tion.

DELAY JAP REPLIES.
Associated Press.


Washington, July l0.-After a con-
ference lasting an hour and quar-
ter with Ambassador Chinda, Secre-
tary Bryan announced that a reply
to the two latest Japanese notes on
the alien land controversy would not
be sent until some time next week.
He had previously announced that
they would be sent this week. No
reason for the change was given.
Bryan told his inquirers that some
points of the reply were discussed
with Chinda, but declined to make
public any details under considera-
tion.
The fact that Bryan proposes to
postpone dispatch of the reply gave
rise to the conclusion that he will
redraft the note which was supposed
to be in readiness for transmission
to Toxic.

Hot Weather Good
for Beet Culture
Says Fred Holmes

Fred G. Holmes of the sugar COM
pany went to Delta yesterday to look
after the interests of his company
there. He stated that the total acre
age this year is between 1900 and
1000 greater than last year and that
the tonnage increase for the local
factory will probably be even greater
in proportion as the present hot
weather is exceptionally good for the
beets and makes them grow rapidly
and rich in sugar. Manager Holmes
makes the prediction that the pro-
duction for the coming season will
be the greatest by far in the history
of the local factory with over $1,000
tons OF beets to slice and treat.

ed in finding the old pipe in the

The city has ordered 400 feet more of
casing and the we'll will be recessed
down to the six inch casing. Mr..
Schwan has, orders from the company
to connect the new pipe up to the
city mains before he leaves which
will no doubt be done some time next
week. Mr.. SchWan has worked under
difficulties since coming or the job as
the old pipe was dynamited off down
sixty feet and the old casing battered
up so that it al almost impossible
for one to find the opening under
water, which had to be done before
new casing could be put down, but he
kept at it until he succeeded in get
ting the we'll under control.
The farmers east of town will be
thankful to see the flow Of water shut
off as it has done quite a lot Of dam
age to one or two farms, for this year.,
and the city will also be glad to see
the water turned into the mains again,

NARROW ESCAPE
FROM AWFUL DEATH

Mott, N. D.. May 26.-John Wake
field, while working with his large
tractor plow outfit on the farm south
Of town, met with a serious and what
might have proven a fatal accident
last Saturday afternoon. It appears
that he had reached the end of a field
and was in the act of making a turn
when the accident happened. While
passing over a dead furrow, the engine
seemed to give a. lurch, throwing the
unfortunate man directly underneath
the plows, the heavy wheels and plow
points striking him with much force
ON h upper part Of the body. =
AS quickly as possible the engine
was stopped and it was with difficulty
that Mr. Wakefield vas removed from
his perilous position. With all posi-
Bile haste. both Drs. Redman and
Rucker were rushed to the Wakefield
home. arriving there about the same
time that the injured man had been
carried to the house, j
IN examination 1t was found that
four ribs were broken and the left
shoulder badly dislocated, also the
chest was somewhat crushed. Lacera-
tons We're found on both arms and
head and for some time his life was
despaired Of. His remarkable robust
constitution, however, together with
his gritty nerve, aided considerably in
lending strong hopes for his recovery.
which, according to the attending ply
sicians' report today. is now practical
ly assured.
News Of the distressing accident
caused much concern in our communi-
ty, the Wakefield family being
amongst the earliest settlers of the
county, and it is with regret hat we
are compelled to chronicle such a seri-
Gus accident that falls on our esteemed
friend.
A coincidence, and one that bears
the "hoodoo" strain, is that another
brother, Knox, met with an accident
on the same outfit about two years
ago, in which he lost a limb.
Sympathy of the entire community
will be extended to the Wakefield
household and it is sincerely hoped
that John will fully recover from his
injuries, although it is known hat he
will be confined to his home for a con-
siderable time.

FAMILY FOUND r
FATHER IN JAIL

M1not, N. D. May 26.-John Piekos'
wife and several children arrived from
Bohemia on No. s, Sunday afternoon,
to find PIekos in the county Jail, held
under $4,000 bonds, as a witness in the
Staff case, which will be tried at the
fall term. Piekos was the only witness
to the shooting when Staff shot and
killed his wife in a barrel a week ago
Sunday. Piekos' testimony all the
way through was very favorable to
Staff, and under the circumstances it
was considered best to hold the man
as a witness. AS a result, Justice
Burke placed the mar under heavy
bonds which he cannot furnish.
Piekos was very much disappointed
not to be able to join his family, but 1t
is believed that he has himself to
blame for the mess that he has gotten
himself into. Piekos had hired out to
Staff to work on the farm and had
spent only one night at the farm.
The wife and children were taken to
the home of Al Erb, three miles north
of the city, where they are being cared
for.
