CHRISTMAS SHOPPING
is NOW AT ITS HEIGHT

Merchants and clerks are now putting
in the busiest week Of the year. Christ
mas shopping is at its height, and all
report an unusually heavy Holiday
trade. Practically all of the stores
are kept open during the evening, that
all may be waited on and the trade
taken care of.
: In spite of the snow which has caused
auto travelling to beesomewbat disagree
able, merchants report that! shoppers
are coming from many miles around to
take advantage of the large and com
plete stocks displayed in. the New Ulm
stores.
Another feature Of this years buying,
the dealers say, that Christmas shop
ping began unusually early this season,
and has been steadily increasing for
more than month.
Sure, these are prosperous times and
everybe dy seems to want to take adj
vantage of it and make the most of the

CAR REPAIRING is
GROWING INDUSTRY
tICRTHWESTERN SHOPS HERE
HELP TO RELIEVE THE. BAD
SHORTAGE.
ROLLING STOCK SITUATION Is
MOST SERIOUS IN RAILROAD
HISTORY

An industry that has grown to quite
large proportions in New U]m within
the past three years, is that of the
Northwestern Railway Ccmpany's car
repair shops, and it is doubtful if more
than a very lew of the people Of this
city known that such is the case An
average of twenty men are employed
nstantly at the shops, and several
thousand dollars are paid cut annually
and all to home labor
Three years ago repair work was start
ed, in a small way repairing cars that
needed to be put in condition for, flour
and grain, and has been growing steadily
ever since.
Only Local Men Employed
| John Karl is foreman of the local
car repair department Of the North
| western, and is mentioned by railway
officials as an extremely competent man
in that position He a New Ulm man,
as are all Of the employees in that de-
rartment. The repair shops are near
the crossing at South Fourth street.
In 1915 there were turned out of the
local shops 1888 cars at an expense CT
$4,000. For the present year the
number and expenditure will run con-
siderably higher. Not only were more
cars repaired during the present year,
but the work was heavier, many cars
being practically rebuilt, which was not
the case heretofore, only the lighter
repairs being attempted. From Jan
uary /, to November 80, inclusive 49,
179 cars were repaired, fer. which 49,
6OS.09 was paid out. Mr.. Karl esti-
mates that the number for this month
will reach about 1,1OO and the expense
will be in the neighborhood of 81 100.
making a total of upwards of 1890
cars at an expense of nearly $11 900.
Lack of cars in June and July cut the
number during those months, but this
was more than made up in the last few
months.
The local shops are buster in the late
summer and fall months, and work drops
of considerably in mid-winter. Last
year December was TIE heaviest month,
there being 1,400 cars turned out after

additional $4,000 if tiled. A hard fight
was put up by both sides to the con-
troversy. The auditor was instructed
to collect the expense incurred from the
bopdsmen.
Notwithstanding the fact that con-
sideration of the ditch consumed a
greater part of the day, the commits

FREIGHT TRAIN LOSES
THREE CARS AT CROSSING

During the snow storm Thursday
night three cars, consisting of 9 box
cars, filled with merchandise, an empty
stock car and a gondola, loaded with
railway ties, were piled up in a heap
at the Center street crossing of the
Northwestern railway main track.
Traffic was tied up for several hours,
while the wreckage was being cleared
away. The accident, which occurred
about $3.50 in the evening was caused
by mistake in signals.
The cars belonged to west-bound
freight train, which stopped here. to
switch in a car: A local switching
engine was used in pushing it up the hill
west of town, and had been coupled on
to the rear end of train, while the reg
ular. crew was switching at the front end.
The forward brakeman gave the signal
to the engineer on the head locomotive
to 60 ahead, which was taken by.:the
rear-end crew for them to proceed,
which was done, with disastrous results.

Be HELD JAN. 10
PROMINENT MEN EXPECTED TO
TAKE PART IN CONFERENCE
HERE.
GREAT INTEREST is BEING
AROUSED UP AND DOWN
VALLEY.

The date for the conference of the Tri-
State Flood Control Association, to be
held here, has been set for Wednesday,
January 10th at 1890 a. m. It is
designed to have the conference pre-
ceding the meeting of the All Minnesota
Development Association, the date Of
which has been changed from January
4 and 5 to the Is and 10 of that month.
Farmers to Tell Conditions.
It's expected l1ror1iiner,4 z1es. tfro,1. al,
along the Minnesota and Red River
valleys will be present. The mayor of
Fargo has signifed his intention to send
Invitations TO the mayor Of every city
in the two valleys and also to the chair
man Of each Beard Of County Com
missioners whose countysis affected by
either Of the rivers involved. Invita-
tlons are also to be sent to many other
prominent men, well versed on the
situation.
DR.. L. A. Fritsche, who is leader in
the movement to curb the flood waters
Of these two troublesome rivers, said
yesterday, that it is not intended to
make this great speech-making affair,
but rather to let the farmers who are
affected by the floods, be heard and tell
the people just what the situation is so
far as they are concerned.
Congress to Be Informed.
1--WE propose said Mayor Fritsche,
so adopt resolutions that will give, not
only the All Minnesota Development
Association, but the authorities at
Washington, an idea just what the
farmers of the river bottom lands are up
against. It has been published that
about $4,000 acres of land are affected.
That amount is just that in the Dakotas
while in Minnesota it runs into the
millions.
What We want the government to do
is tosay what it proposes to do in regardto
the Minnesota river; whether it will re-
tain it for navigation, purposes or not,
and improve it for that purpose. If not
then let it be turned over to the states,
that it may be made f1ood-proof. When
the federal authorities indicate their
purpose we will know what move to
Make
Capt. Jacob Hindermann of Fort
Ridgely, who was in the city last week,
comforting with Mayor Fritsche, was the
last steamboat master to navigate the
Minnesota river above Mankato, having
discontinued the service in 1880. To
the Review he told of much of his ex-
perience on this river.
Navigated the Minnesota,
The younger generation may laugh
at the idea of navigating the Minnesota
he said, "but us old fellows know what
we are talking about. For many years
and there are many here in New Ulm
now who can remember seeing the big
Mississippi river steamers tied up at the
old dock which was at the foot OF Center
street. When Fort Ridgely was in use
by the government troops all of the
supplies were brought there by boat.
When the fort was abandoned the horses,
equipment and men, were loaded.onto a
steamer and taken to the Mississippi
and down that stream to st. Louis on
the same ship that they loaded at the
fort.
