METLAKAHTLAN FACTIONS
 EXPECTED TO SEPARATE

From late and reliable reports it IS learned that the long anticipated step toward the separation of the factions at Metlskahtla is about to be taken The separation will be effected by the removal from the present settlement of the followers of Mir. Duncan to another place, the location of which has been partly decided upon but kept to themselves. The informant said that some sixty persons had signed an agreement to start anew by the establishment of another settlement, and to that end every prepara- ton is being made The informant sad that due to the latest move of the govern ment, through Commissioner Cla1ton, Tn taking possession of all the buildings and other property in trust for the natives, no amicabe relations ever could exist between the factions. hence the decision to migrate:
 All kinds of reports are being circulated about the doings of the government officials One of them was to the effect that an oftl- clal had broken into warehouse. In order to ascertain the facts in the case an lnvestl- gation was made, with the result that the contrary was found to obtain, It was found that the opponents of the government had removed the lock and, by the use of an- other door, had nailed pieces across the inside of the "broken-ln door," presumably to prevent the officials from using the ware house.
 Inasmuch as no satisfactory division of the property can be made, it is said that both factions have been advised to take the matter up before he Utnied States supreme court for adjudication, and such IS being seriously considered -ketchlkan Progress sve

NEWS OF OPHIR HOLD-UP CHARGED
Man Who Charged Another With Robbery Is Himself in Trouble
 on Similar Charge

Deputy United States Marshal w. B.. Thomas left for Dikeman on Thursday morning last, with a warrant for the arrest of John Schneider on the charge of robbery. The complaint was sworn to by Dan $. Suth erand Thomas was accompanied by George Adams with dog team. Sutherland, who claims to have been on his way to the Ditns on hunting expedi Ion, says that when half mile out of Dikeman, carrying a pack on his back and rife in his hand he was confronted by Schneider who pointed gun at him and commanded him to throw down his weapon. He did so, and was told to drop his pack, which order he also complied with He then took to his heels and made his way to this city to swear out a complaint. He says that he was robbed of five days provisions, an axe and rifle.
 Grows Out of Previous Trouble
 The incident is sequel to charge of robbery against Sutherland made by Schnel- der last summer The latter caused the ar rest of Sutherland on charge of robblng him of large sum of money, and was him. self locked up on charge of insanity. The charge against Sutherland was dropped, ow- ing to the peculiar actions of the complain ant.
 After being in jail here for several days Schneider evinced desire to drop the charge of robbery against Sutherland, and told the officials that he wanted to get out of Jail and go to work cutting wood. He accompanied Deputies Thomas and Maltby to Flat creek, where he had cached con siderable sum of money, and this he dug up He showed the officers another cache from which he said he had taken s2,3OO, which he charged Sutherland with stealing Owing to the fact that Schneider was said to have become indebted for several small amounts with business men, on the plea of poverty, his story was generally discredited, and as there was no other evidence to be secured in the case, it was thought to be useless to hold Sutherland on the robbery charge.
 Schneider Follows Sutherland Recently Sutherland made known his pur- pose of going to the Ditna country, and Schneider who still claimed that Suther land had robbed him and thought he had the money in his possession, followed him If Sutherland's story of the hoId-up near Dikeman be correct, it Is presumed that Schneider took the desperate step for the purpose of recovering the money which he supposed Sutherland carried with him.

HEARS INVITATION TO
DINNER BEFORE GIVEN
Novel Conversation Takes Place over
New Bell Line Across
Continent.

An interesting feature of the cele-
Lration of the Transcontinental Tele-
phone Line was conversation be
tween two telephone pioneers, Thomas
d. Lockwood in Boston and Thomas b.
Doolittle in San Francisco.
In the course of the conversation
Mr.. Doolittle asked Mr.. Lockwood IL
the latter was not going to extend an
invitation to dinner; to which Mr.
Lockwood made the following very
interesting reply:
Certainly i am happy to invite you
TO dinner; but don't forget that times
and conditions are changed. When in
1879 we opened the Lowell line, IL you
were in Lowell. you would have heard
my invitation while l was giving It.

an hour, but now, and where you are,
while you will hear with your own
ears my invitation three hours before

WHAT new TELEPHONE
LINE MEANS To NATION
Deals Final Blow to Sectionalism by
Bringing Al Our People
Closer Together.

A prominent guest at the celebration
Of the Transcontinental Telephone
Line, speaking of what the new con-
nection means to the country said:
For one thing, ii is final blow to
sectionalism--it has put seal on the
fact there is no longer East and West,
North and South. Not even the rail-
roads or the new canal have done or
can do so much toward bringing the
states closer together and uniting
them more firmly, not only in com
merce, but in thought and language.
Provincialism will become rarer and
rarer, localisms, dialects-all such
things that depend on isolation-are
getting to be an impossibility in the
United States, and the telephone has
been the greatest agent in bringing
about this desirable condition. 1t is
hard for people to get very far apart
when they are in such constant touch
with each other, and / know Of moth
ing which is doing more to strengthen
the bonds between individuals and
communities than the network of wires
the American Telephone & Telegraph
Company is spreading over the coun-
try. So much Importance do l attach
TO this idea, that, extreme as the state
ment may seem, l believe quite firm
ly that, had the telephone system
reached its present perfection previ-
Gus to 1861, the Civil War would not
have occurred. The wires would not
have let the North and South drift so
far apart"

NEW YORK, June 5, 1915.


The dismissal of the Governments
suit against the Steel Corporation by
the United States Circuit Court for
New Jersey seems to have infused, to
Judge not only from the press COM
ments, but for the comments made by
prominent business men all over the
country, a most cheerful feeling into
the business community which cannot
fail to reflect advantageously also on
our tobacco industries and leaf mar
kets. The general comment reads as
if business were set free once more to
pursue its expansive progress unfet-
tered by arbitrary Governmental inter-
ference. For it has been defined ''that
the real test of unlawful monopoly is
not in the size of that which is ac-
quired, but the trade power of that
which is not acquired. Anyhow what
has been pronounced as a great dis
turbance to business extension and
business revival is now practically set
tied and should help to revive the wan
ing fortunes of our cigar industry and
also of our leaf market which depends
on the prosperity of the cigar industry.
Trading in our local leaf market was
rather slack during the week, due per-
haps mostly to the scarcity of season
able stock. In seed leaf brisker
movement is hardly to be expected be-
fore the late summer season. In the
meanwhile, Sumatra still commands
such of the activity as there is In the
market. There has probably been done
during this spring larger business In
Sumatra than during many previous
similar periods. From Havana comes
the news of revived activity in 1914
Vueltas and also Of an uplift in the
Cuban cigar industry. The review of
the Havana situation, as outlined by

TOBACCO MARKET.
EDGERToN, WIS.,, June II, 1916.

EDGERTON, WIS.,, June Ii, 1910.
Another cold, rainy week has not
materially advanced the prospects of
an early transplanting of the tobacco
crop in this state. In few localities
start has been made in getting the
plants into the fields in face of the fact
that low temperatures have prevailed
during most of the week and we barely
missed frosts on one or two mornings.
Warm weather is now mostly needed
to bring on the great bulk of the plants
in readiness for transplanting during
June. There seems to be an abundance
of late beds that can scarcely make it.
Scarcely anything is now being done
towards lifting the balance of last sea-
sons crop yet in growers hands. Con-
siderable work is yet to be done about
the warehouses before the packing sea-
son is closed at all the market points.
Possibly sorting may be carried on by
a few firms until we'll into the summer
A 130cs lot of 1914 BIS has been sold
by an Evansville packer to an Ohio
firm this week. The market for old
leaf continues lifeless.
Shipments out of storage do not ex-
ceed 800 cases from this market to all
points since last report.

CHIPPEWA FALLS, Wis, June 2, 1915.
Warm weather is surely here and the
tobacco growers are taking advantage
of it by setting out their plants which
have been ready now for over week.
Except for the cold weather of the
past two weeks, most of the tobacco
planting would have been finished in
this section as the plants in the seed
beds have been showing up extraor-
dinarily fine this year. A larger acre
age Of tobacco will be planted this year
than ever before. There are more
growers every year.
H. S. Edler, local manager of the A.
Hussey Leaf Tobacco Co., is trying an
experiment that will be watched with
great interest. In the east part of the
city near the Calvary cemetery he will
plant half acre of the Connecticut
shade-grown wrappers. This field will
be covered with 1000 yards of canvas.
Mr. Edler has purchased the canvas
which cost him about $75 and he is busy
sewing it together. He has his field
ready and will start setting out today.

SPRINGFIELD, MASS, June 2, 1915.
Some Connecticut tobacco growers
have gotten pretty we'll along with their
transplanting for 1915, but cloudy days
have been none too favor able for this
work. Moreover, the nights have been
cool and there was considerable talk of
frost for few days last week. Now,
however, improved conditions are ap-
parent and within very few days the
transition from cool to warm weather
will very probably be so fierce that the
growers will wonder how it was that
cool weather ever happened at all. In
creased acreage is spelling a banner
crop for the state this year, if the
growers get ady thing like fair weather,
for even in terms of the trade it is the
money that counts, and an increased
acreage properly sold should mean a
good deal more money.

go into the field before June was well
advanced. Well, the cool spell has
continued, and yet, during the past few
days good deal of planting has been
done, and within another week it will
be in full swing. The plants are ready,
of course, else there would be no plant
ing. We are told by the growers that
the plants are unusually well advanced
