BALLOTS TO PHOENIX; MISSING PRECINCT FOUND

County Treasurer H. s. Ross left this morning for Phoenix, having in his custody the ballots of the general election which will be recounted in the superior court of Maricopa county in the recount proceedings for govern orship. When ready for shipment the ballots constituted about dozen large canvas sacks and six large metal boxes. They were shipped by express and will reach Phoenix the same time that Treasurer Ross does Included in the shipment was the sack containing the Wilgus ballots. which were thought to be lost and which were discovered yesterday by Mir. Ross. The manner in which the ballots had been overlooked was dis closed when Mir Ross found the sack yesterday tied to one of the Bisbee sacks, which had been in his vault since the official canvass by the board | of supervisors. The sack was not opened yesterday. however, but was | allowed to remain sealed until it reaches Phoenix. and the court will open it for the recount. The Wilgus precinct gave Hunt 5 votes and Camp bell Ii out of 1a votes cast, and prob ably would not have been uncovered for a long time had not the recount proceedings been started
 | Whether or not the votes will be counted in Phoenix now is a matter of conjecture here at present. as the of- ficial canvas has already been made by the board. Legal advice, how ever, is that it wifi be counted, since the attorney general caused to be counted the Swansea precinct in Va
 -aipa county after the official can
 ass had been made, and the present
 ,ase will come under the same head

GETS BIG BONUS TO
Y CANCEL CONTRACT
President of Chicago Cubs to Pay
I Bresnahan $4,000; Goes
to Toledo.

Chicago, Mar. 1.-The story going
the rounds is that Roger Bresnahan,
former manager of the Cubs, is to get
one years salary, $4,000, from Presi-
dent Weeghman OF The Cubs, and can
eel his two-years' contract.
1t seems practically settled that
Bresnahan will take over the Toledo
club of the American association. The
newspapers of Toledo and all of the
leading fans would not welcome any
one else but the former Cub man
ager. 1t is an easy matter this year
TO collect a ball team at a very slight
expense. While the Federal league
players are still looking for places, it
will be easy to get hold OF enough
men to make the Toledo outfit a first
division team under the leadership Of
a man like Bresnahan.
A first-division team for Toledo
would be almost as good as a pen
nant-winner, for it has been many
years since they have had anything
that good. The fact that the club has
been away from Toledo for two years
has made the town baseball hungry.
1t was mistake to move the team
over to Cleveland. 1t has never peen
regarded with favor by the Cleveland
people, for it looked like an attempt

Chairman Wench Satisfied That
Everything Is Open and
Above Board.

New York, Mar. 1.-The state box
ing commission has put its otilcia
stamp on the Willard Moran fight ana
has announced that the promoters
had complied with every requirement
of the state law. Promoter Richard
has gone even beyond this and has
consented to deposit all the money
involved in the bout in a bank at the
commissions order.
"We are perfectly satisfied" said
Chairman Wenck, that everything
connected with this bout is above
board, and the promoters have done
everything in their power 10 assure
us that they are acting in the best OF
faith. If the bout itself should not
come up 10 the expectations of the
public it will not be the fault of any
one connected with the promoting or
management Of the contest"
Frank Moran sent word from Sara
toga that he will break camp there
next week and come to this city 10
finish his training at ''Dal' Hawkins.
The only part OF this training sche-
dule that is bound to be nuisance is
the length of time | will have to keep

permanent dyes will again be avail
able.
Careful investigation which has
been made by the national associa-
ton of laundrymen has disclosed:
That industries depending upon fast
colors are in many cases closing
down.
That the better quality Of shirtings
now being worn are perhaps in fast
colors, but that this condition cannot
possibly continue for any great length
of time.
That the wash goods in which the
cOlors are most questionable at the

some cases "crock" when the damp

living in California, is with the Eng
lish army in France to the belief of
those who are familiar with the regi-
ments involved, in the desperate
fighting that has been going on about
Verdun for the last few days. He
was something of an adventurer, hay
ing travelled in Mexico and other
countries before engaging in his pres

He went from this city to Detroit
and from that city engaged as host
Ter on q mule boat carrying a cargo

AND SWANSON
ARE MASTERS OF GAME
F..rfa ~ lSiE4f ~ .l -
Mat Will Be Placed on Floor So
All Spectators Will Have i
Good View.

Tomorrow night wrestling fans Of
the capital city and surrounding ter
ritory will have an opportunity of wit
Messing the best match which has
been staged in the city this season,
when Charlie Rentrop, champion mid
dleweighr of Europe, and Alex Swan
son, champion middleweight OF the
Pacific coast, meet ina finish match,
best two out Of three fails, catch-as-
catch-can style. ..
The mon will weigh in at about
165 pounds tomorrow afternoon, and
both are in the pink of condition for
the match. Eentrop will undoubted-
ly have a few pounds on Swanson,
but this will make very little differ
ence, as Swanson says he invariably
wrestles men who are little over
his weight. The difference in weight,
however, will be so slight, about three
pounds, that it will cut little figure.
Rentrop at Beach.
Rentrop went to Beach to wrestle
this week, SO that he will be in best
of condition for the match tomorrow.
He met "kid" Latta,f who has been
hurting numerous challenges at him,
and in one minute and ten seconds,
put the would-be wrestler's shoulders
to the mat three times. Rentrop
threw the "Kid' as fast as he got
to his feet, but says he had good
time" and enjoyed it.
Swanson has been working out
here, and says he was meyer in bet
ter condition. He is confident that
he can throw Rentrop and win tomor-
row nights match.
Mat On Floor.
The armory was selected for the
match because it admits of a more adj
vantageous seating arrangement. The
mat will be placed on the floor, and
the seats SO arranged that all spec
tators will have an unobstructed
view of the wrestlers..
U. S. Weather Observer o. W. Rob
erts has been secured to referee the
match, and from what he knows of
Rentrop and Swanson, both of whom
are topnotchers in the wrestling
world, he predicts a rough and stormy
session. Mr.. Roberts also knows the
wrestling game and is a competent Of
fetal. ~.
Seats have already been placed on
sale, and indications are that the at
tendance will surpass that of any
match held here. .,,e. .

7 SHIPMENTS, HAS. BEST
YEAR OF IT'S HISTORY

Max, N. D., March 1.-The remark.
tble condition of grain blockade in
February is being experienced in Max,
with the grain being marketed so
rapidly that the elevators have not
been able to ship it out fast enough
to keep their bins clear for the re.
ception of grain. 0
Early estimates placed the amount
of grain that would be marketed in
Max at about a million bushels, but
present indications are that the total
will be about 100000 bushels.
During the last week, the marketing
operations at this point we're marked
by the reception Of the following
amounts Of grains Of various kinds:
Wheat, 40,201 bushels; barley, 10,14?
bushels; oats, 1929 bushels; flax, Al?
bushels; rye, 1893 bushels, making a
total of 57,120 bushels in one week,
In every case the farmers obtained
higher prices for their grain because
they have held it 10 this season of the
year.

BANK
'''' READY TO OPEN

Casselton, March .1.--Federal approx.
al of the plans of reorganizing the
First National bank Of Casselton was
secured by c.. III. Anheier of Fargo
and NJ. E. Straus, president of the
bank, during their visit to Washing
ton the latter part of last week.
Announcement of the reopening,
however, is temporarily delayed, pend
ing the working out of several details
vital to- the plan submitted to and ap.
proved by the comptroller of currency
at Washington.
When the bank is reopened, and
there no longer appears any doubt on
that score, about 100000 in deposits
will be made available to the people
of Casselton.
The bank was closed some time ago
through the alleged entertainments of
the Kittles, officers of the bank over
a period of many years.
