Starts Unique Procedure.

Madison-One Of the most unusual
ever brought to the Supreme court of
Wisconsin was given it's final hearing
when arguments We're heard in the
case of the New Dells Lumber COM
pany of Eau Claire and the estate CT
Gerhardt Vennen
Vennen was workman for the
New Dells concern. 1t is alleged that
he contracted typhoid fever from con-
taminated water while at work. His
widow is suing for $40, 900 for illness
incurred and $4,000 for the result
tant death. The case was nOnsuited
in the lower court.
The lumber company contends that
this action properly comes under the
workmen's compensation act and that
the compensation according to the
regular schedule should be paid. The
plaintiffs plea is that there was moth
ing accidental, construed in terms of
the compensation act, about the case.
The argument opens an entirely

Railroad Magnate Reiterates Estah-

Chicago, Sept. 21.-James J. Hill
upon his arrival here said. THE bill
lion-dollar loan sought by the Anglo
French financial commission is GER
tain to be granted. Such is my opin-
ion. 1t is possible that it might not
come up to the billion-dollar mark
originally set, but the negotiations for
the establishment of the credit are
bound to be successful. 1t is q ques-
ton of protecting our markets with
us. If the loan should be refused we
would find they could get along much
better without us than we could with
out them"
Mr.. Hill paused in Chicago on his
way back to St. Paul from New York.

cause of the Anglo-French commits

Lake Forest, and at the Chicago club,

on the question Of the billion-dollar

1T is marketing question" reite-
rated Mr.. Hill. With us it is simply
the matter of having something to sell
and finding a customer for our goods.
1t is the simple everyday matter OF
buyer and seller. Think of it, we will
have a 400,000,000 wheat surplus this
year. We must find market for that
or suffer disaster. 1t will be far bet
ter for us to sell it on credit than to
store it up and let our markets go to
smash.
Il saw this thing coming 80 days

from Vilhjalmar Stefansson, the arctic

New York, Sept. 20.-Satisfed by
Filhjalmur Stefansson's announcement
that he is alive and we'll on Banks
Land, in the Arctic, explorers aad ge-
o9raphers directed attention to the
new land he reports he has discovered
in the far north.
in Stefansson's own report the new
~ discovered land is located near Is
degrees north latitude and III degrees
west longitude. He actually saw about
100 miles of coast line running in an
easterly direction and apparently pene-
trating to distance of 20 miles in
land, where from hilltop the explorer
saw mountains at a distance OF so
miles.
Cyrus G. Adams, president of the
Association Of American Geographers,
declared in a statement that Stefans-
sons new land lies about 100 m lies to
the north of Prince Patrick island, and
that the most southerly part of the
land which the explorer visited is con-
siderably to the east of the most east
ward extension Of Prince Patrick
island
The lands nearest to it, Mr.. Adams
said, are the Polynia islands, a little
group north of Prince Patrick island,
about rs or 80 miles from the new
land.
Tested Theories.
The expedition was undertaken by
Stefansson to test the theories which
had been set forth by Dr. hansen and
others that the uneXplored portion of
the Arctic ocean is a deep basin vir-
tually devoid of land. Other explorers
had asserted that land of considerable
area lay undiscovered there.
The southern wing of the expedition
is pursuing its scientific work in the
Mckenzie delta and reports no mishap
except the death of Engineer Daniel
Blue of the power boat Alaska. This
is the 18th death among the members
Of the expedition. Eight men persisted
on the ice while trying to reach Wran-
gel island and another accidentally
shot and killed himself there. Another

er, In a Denver rooming house last
March, shot and killed the woman
who had been going under the name
of Mrs. Helen Cooper, then turned the
revolver upon himself. fired two bull
lets into his breast and died In the
roadway.
The tragedy occurred at Livermore,
twenty-five miles west of here. In
his intent to kill, Pattison fired upon
his daughter before taking his own
life, but the bullet went wild.
AS the slayer of two fell to the
roadway, a spark from an exploded
cartridge he had sent into his breast
set fire to his clothing. Mumbling in
coherently. Pattison was a living
torch for the few moments of life
which remained to him. The shoot
ing came without warning. Pattison

in Larimer county as cook about two
months ago. Her daughter was with
her as helper. She told nothing of her

ported by tie Denver police as having
run away from her husband several
days after he had been exonorated by
