NAVAL MILITIA
TRAINING ship
Being REFITTED

The Topeka. third-class cruiser.
which will replace the naval train
ing ship Gopher. now detailed for use
OF the Head OF the Lakes division Of
the naval militia, has been docked In
the Portsmouth naval yards, where
rehtting will be started at once, ac-
cording to telegram received by
Captain Guy A. Eaton OF Duluth Sat-
urday.
Measuring 250 feet at the water
line with 35-foot beam. the To-
peka draws about II feet inches
or water. She will have sleeping ac-
400 men. 1t will thus be possible
TO carry more than half OF the entire
division on cruise which Is impos-
slble on the Gopher.
1t is planned to spend about $l25,-
900 in retitting the cruiser. New
turbine engines OF 1000 horsepower
will be installed. The new engines
will give the Topeka a speed Of about
l6.2 knots, or slightly more than
IS miles per hour.
In addition to the regular mobiliza-
tion OF the Great Lakes fleet TO be
held sometime during the summer.
an emergency mobilization at Phila-
delphia is scheduled. This will be
purely a practice and will be called
entirely without warning.
1t will be necessary to reach
Philadelphia within two days from
the time the call goes FORTH" stated
Captain Eaton. We will attempt to
get under way in the shortest pos
sible time There will be special cars
and equipment, but not available un-
til after the call comes. Arrange
ments will be as much like an emer-
genCy summons to man the reserve
ships in time OF war as possible. The
mobilization will be entirely in addi-
tiOn to the regular summer cruises
\ salt water cruise will probably fol-
low the trip east"

O'Connell. chairman of the state
utilities commission, has called q
meeting Of that body to attempt to
break the coal shortage. The COM
mission will try to force the release
OF immense quantities Of coal now
being held. 1t is probable that an
effort will be made to abolish the re-
consignment privilege or attach q
penalty to it. Dealers are able to hold
coal in railway cars Indefinitely by
the subterfuge OF reconsigning the
shipment to dummy firms each day
to avoid the payment of demurrage.

for Ditch No. rs to E. A. Dahl
& Company.
COST Is SEVEN PER
CENT ABOVE ESTIMATE
Protests Made But Ditch Had Been
Properly Established and Bonds
Sold.

Contracts for the construction of
Judicial Ditch No. 25 were lot at
two o'clock this afternoon to e. A.
Dahl & Company of Duluth, by IL.
George, county auditor.
The ditch is to be constructed
north of the Red Lake and is to be
324 miles in length. The estimated
cost was s404.565.29. E. A. Dahl
& Company in competition with q
dozen other ditch contractors, bid
$433,05l.66, or seven per cent above
the engineers estimate.
Former Bids Rejected.
Bids for the ditch were rejected at
the former lettings because the bids
were considered too high by County
Auditor George
When the bids for the construction
Of the ditch were opened several
weeks ago a number OF Bemidji, Ten
strike and Blackjack citizens pro-
tested against the letting, stating that
the county was already bonded to too
great an extent and requested that
the ditch be held up until some rem
edly could be found for the ditch
evil"
Protest is Late.
No protest was made, however.
when the ditch was established. The
ditch had been advertised, bonds had
been authorized and sold but not de-
livered and bids had been received
before the protest was made. In or
der that those who protested could
take any legal steps possible, County
Auditor George held up the letting
until today. Several days ago citi-
zens met with Judge c. W. Stanton
to secure relief If possible. Several
homesteaders who live near the pro-
posed ditch pointed out the need of
a ditch in that territory and stated
that there were a large number of
homesteaders in the district 1t was
shown that certain portions of the
ditch were necessary. Judge Stan
ton was urged to divide the ditch, but
on account Of the advanced stage Of
the project was unable to do so.
THE ditch has been properly es-
tablished," said County Auditor
George today, "and I cannot see why
it should not be let. The bids are
low. lower than at three previous let
tings. The land will be sold at the
