St. Johns Hospital to
Build $4,000 Addition

Among the many buildings now be-
ing erected and in the course of erec-
tion in the city this summer is the
large addition to st. Johns hospital.
This new building, which is expected
to be under the course of construc-
ton within the next few weeks, will
be used as nurses home and when
completed will cost more than $780,
900.
The new building will be erected on
the hospital grounds, the exact loca-
tion of which has not yet been deter
mined, and will be of brick and con-
crete construction. 1t will be fire.
proof throughout and will have three
full stories and basement. 1t is to be
modern and up-to-date in all respects
and will be somewhat the same design
as the large administration and hos
pitaI building.
Plans for the building are now in the
hands of Hancock Bros, architects,
and will be ready for filing within the
next few days.
The old frame building which has
been used as a nurses home almost
since the founding of the institution,
has outgrown its usefulness and its
quarters have become too cramped for
the large force of nurses now employ
ed by the hospital. The growth Of the
hospital during the past few years has
been phenomenal and the need of a.

The hearing of the case of the state
of North Dakota against the Equity
Cooperative exchange continued this
morning without any events to enliv-
en- the session, except few quiet
voiced tits between the opposing
counsels. The work of the hearing has
settled down, largely, to the monoton-
Gus grind of reading the vast mass OF
affidavits and depositions to the court.
Judge Edward Engerud, assisting At
torney General Linde and his assist
ant, Francis Murphy, being on the
floor the entire forenoon reading the
voluminous documents.
The crowd was considerably thinner
in the court room this forenoon, not
over half of the seats being occupied,
and there was noticeable absence OF
the red badges, that on the first day of
the hearing were such a conspicuous
feature in the court room.
Several of the affidavits read this
morning were by Farmers elevator
companies over the state, showing
transactions between the elevator
companies and the st. Paul office of
the Equity. These state that the bus
mess transacted was not at all salts
factory. One of these affidavits was
by J. A. Morrow, manager of the Don
nybrooke Farmers Elevator Co., who
states in the document that the deal
ings with the exchange were SO un-
satisfactory after the first few ship
ments, that the directors of the eleva
tor instructed him to cease dealing
with the Equity organization. A num-
Der of instances where the exchange
failed to comply with the instructions
of the manager of the elevator COM
pany at Donnybrooke are cited. In
one instance he states he wired the
Equity exchange to sell 1000 bushels
of flax to arrive and that 1t was sold
one-half cent lower than the lowest
market price quoted on that date.
Aff1davits were read from E. s..
Hughes. G. l., Meme, William A. Cog
stetter, j. A. Morrow, Henry III. Wist-
lie, Charles r. Haley, James Tierney
and G.. N. Palmer.
g, L. Meine Affidavit.
Among large number of affidavits
read to the court this morning was a
deposition by G. Il. Meine, supple
mented by affldavits to show that cars
Of grain would many times change
hands as high as three times, each
seller, according to the document,
making profit on the product.
Mr.. Meme states in this deposition
that he would buy from Nels Enge,
whom he knew to be an employee of
the Equity Cooperative exchange.

new home for the nurses has been felt
for considerable time.
The location of the hospital could
hardly be improved upon for ease of
access and at the same time, quiet and
restfuI surroundings. 1t is situated
admirably. on Fourth street south on
the banks of the Red River of the
North, and street cars pass the proper
ty each quarter hour.
The hospital is used entirely for hos.
pital purposes; the heating and light
ing plant, laundry, kitchen and nurses
diet kitchen being in separate build
ings. The grounds about the build
ing have been laid out by a landscape
gardner and are beautifully graded and
planted with shrubbery and hedges
On the first floor of the main build
ing are administrative and executive
Offices. drug room, reception room and
a number of private rooms. with and
without baths and closets. In the fur
nishings of these rooms nothing has
been overlooked that would add TO the
comfort of the patients and give the
surroundings a cheerful aspect. Those
who furnished and decorated private
rooms are: Knights of Columbus.

grain, generally by sample, and that
he would resell, generally on the same
day, making a profit. He states that
he did this buying and, selling on his
own account in order to make profit
for himself He stated that he had
heard several were making money by
buying from the Equity and selling to
a third party. getting a profit from the
transaction. Often, according to
Meme, and supplementary aftidavits,
the grain would finally be sold to the
Chamber of Commerce of Minneapolis.
The Meine deposition shows that he
would go to Mr.. Enge's Office in the
corn exchange and make his bid on the
grain, buying as general sale from
sample, and that his bid was always
intended to be lower than market price
in order that he could make his profit
when he resold, the resale usually be-
ing to r. j. Johnson & Co.
The affidavits show the number and
initial of each of the cars bought and
resold in this manner and also the
buying and selling prices. Each in
stance there was a variation in the
buying and selling price.
Yesterday Afternoon.
The session of the court yesterday
afternoon was taken UP with the eX-
animation of H. M. Hendrickson of
Simcoe, N. D., and a continuance of
the presentation of the atfidavits on
the part of the state, At the time of
going to press, Mr.. Hendrickson was
still on the stand, the cross examina-
ton just starting.
Mr.. Hendrickson, who is manager
of the Farmers elevator at Simcoe, a
small siding nine miles from Velva,
wore one of the red ribbons on which
was printed the legend: I'VE Want
an Open Markets.. Paul" While he
was put on the stand by the state the
result of his testimony Is doubtful as
he would have made a good one for
the Equity Cooperative exchange.
May Be Long Drawn.
There is no indication as to when
the case will be finished. The state
is still presenting matter in the form
of a.ffidavits. depositions and exhibits
and this work will take all of today,
and to all indications, the greater part
of tomorrow. No one would venture
guess as to the length of time that
would be taken in presenting the mat
ter to the court.
Only a couple of tits today between
opposing counsel served to enliven the
session. Even these were not allowed
to continue any length of time, Judge
Pollock bringing the attorneys
promptly to order and getting them to
work on the business at hand.
