On On reports that it was running behind

salc, although the twenty-six passenger r
ana cargo vessels being built by the
board Will mean a total outlay of about
$4,000 900.
Many items necessarily charged off

Four Steamship
Concerns Sue L. S.
For $2,378.256
Morse Companies Say Deal
for Sale of Vessels Fell
ThroughBecauseShipping
Board Broke Agreement

Four steamship companies controlled
by the United States Steamship Com
pany, Of which Charles w. Morse is
president, filed suits in the Supreme
Court yesterday for s2,378,256 against
the United States Shipping Board and
the Emergency Fleet Corporation for
damages caused by the defendants
alleged breach of contract.
The comoanies suing are the Bing-
hamtol~ steamship Company, Huron
Steamship Company, st. Paul Steam
ship Company and Minneapolis Steam
ship Company. Each owns vessel
bearing the first part of the corpora
tons name. The United States Steam
ship Company also owns the Virginia
Shipbuilding Corporation, which figures
in the suit.
The allegations m the four suits are
similar, only tnt amount of damages
demanded differing. They are that in
January, 1919, the Shipping Board, in
order to facilitate the completion and
delivery Of twelve steel freight carry
ing steamships in construction by the
Virginia Shipbuilding Corporation at
its plant and yards, Alexandria, Va,
entered into contract wherein the
board agreed to lend the Virginia cor
consent for the transfer and registry
Of the American steamships Mime
arolis, Binghamton, Huron and St.
Paul to the Canadian flag. The plain
titfs agreed to sell their vessels and
take back a purchase money mortgage
for 100000 and to pledge this money
with the board and Fleet Corporation
as part collateral security for the loan
of the defendant to the Virginia cor
poration
1t is alleged that the steamship COM
panies accepted offers from G. A.
Moulton, of Canada, under which each
OF the four steamships under negotia-
tions was to be sold for So70,000, Of
which $4,000 was to be in cash and
100000 on mortgage. The transfer Of
the vessels to the Canadian flag was
necessary for the fulhllment of the
terms of this sale Because Of the
alleged failure of the defendants to
obtain approval of the transfer of reg
lstry the deal fell through.
The damages sued for are Huron

Big Hearted Trainmen.

r Champaign, ILL.,, Dec. 25.-Santa
Claus chartered two of the Illinois
Central's fastest passenger trains to-
day, and brought them to an abrupt
halt before lonely little farm house
near the village Of Laclede, while dele
cations Of Illinois Central trainmen
carried their gifts into the home of
Lottic Sprouse. 1S year old invalid.
For six years Lottie has carried on
romance" with trainmen of the Hi
nois Central, although her identity
was unknown to them until a few
months ago. When II years old the
girl was stricken with infantile pa
ralysis and was made helpless. Coin
cident with this misfortune her father
met with financial reverses and the
child couldn't be treated.
From a cot near a window in her
home, six years ago, she began wav-
ing at trainmen as they wisked by.
During the last three years she has
not missed waving at a single train,
even signaling those at night with a
lighted match. Trainmen considered
it duty to wave at the EARN in the
window" Recently they investigated
and found the young woman helpless,
with her parents unable to assist her.
Over the Illinois division the train
men passed the word and fund was
subscribed. The trainmen named two
committees, one from Champaign, the
other from Centralia.
Shortly after 2 p. M today the train
she had waved at for six years stopped
a hundred yards from her window.
The delegation unloaded from the
baggage car big wheel chair, a won-
derful robe, a large blanket, house
slippers and a number of other gifts.
The girl had hardly begun to realize
her joys when another train, bound
from the south, stopped, and another
delegation, the one from Centralia,
went to her home and placed at her
disposal fund which trainmen will
supervise while she is receiving medi-
cal attention.

Minnesota's Governors.

When Joseph A. A. Burnquist turns
the reins of office over to Jacob A. O.
Preus on January 5 the state of Min
nesota will have two fairly young ex-
governors at large. Governor Burn
0uis5 retires at the end of five year
term at the age of Al, and Adolph O.
Eberhart who also served five years
in the office and retired six years ago,
is only 46. Many men have barely be-
gun political careers at those ages.
The new governor is another young
man, having just turned 81.
All other former governors of the
state who are still among the living
are of an older generation, and were
older when they assumed office than
the later incumbents Of the post. The
surviving ex-governors Of the state
are William R. Merriam, Knute Mel
son, David M Clough, John Lind, Sam
uel R. Van SAINT and Adolph O.. Ebcr-
hart. Tkc orly breaks in the chain
since Governor Merriam assumed Of
fee in 1889 are John A. Johnson and
Winfield S. Hammond, both Of whom
died in office All the others who
have filled the governors chair in the
past 81 years are still living
Governor Burnquist has been in
public life II years already, starting
with his election to the legislature in
1908. He was reelected in 1910 and
in 1912 was elected lieutenant COVER
nor. He was reelected to that office
in 1914, and at the end Of 1915 was
elevated to the governorship by the
death Of Governor Hammond, as the
death Of John A. Johnson made Mr..
Eberhart governor. He was elected
twice. in 1916 and in 1918. He retires
now to resume the practice of law in
st. Paul, but considering his age it is
quite likely that he will be a candidate
for further honors. 1t will be recalled
that Governor Eberhart, after his de-
feat in 1914 for a third elective term
as governor, came out again in 1916
and tried for the senatorship-M Mime

Bill to Restrict Futures.

The farmers program committee
on legislation, of which r. A. Wilkin-
son is president, has framed bill for
presentation to the state legislature
next month which, if it becomes law,
will make selling grain for future de-
livery, except to elevators and mills,
illegal. Its main provisions are:
First-Every contract Of sale for
future delivery of wheat, grain or
other farm products is declared to be
a gambling contract, therefore illegal
Second-Every such contract is de-
clared prima facie gambling contract
when the seller does not have in his
possession actually or potentially the
commodity sold.
Third-Any party to such gambling
contract, on conviction, may be fined
from $500 to $1,000 for first offense,
and must serve from 80 to 90 days
in the county Jail for each succeeding
offense.
Fourth-Chambers Of commerce or
boards of trade are prevented from
imposing any penalty on any member
who fails or refuses to live up to the
terms Of such contract.
Fifth-The act is not to be construed
as preventing elevators or mills from
buying or selling grain in good faith
for future delivery, the practice that
is known as "hedging."
