CITY NEWS. RAILROADS NOT

CAUGHT NAPPING CARS IX PLENTY FOR WHEAT

CROP.

All Grain-Carrying Roads Are In Con­dition to Move the Crop With Little Delay This Year—Plans of the Va­rious Lines of the Northwest.

Railroads will be better prepared this fall to handle the crop than ever before. Terminals, where the great congestion occurs, are in better shape than last year, and the motive power is in fine condition, while new orders for box cars are being filled gradually.

The slack in traffic the last six months has enabled the lines to over­haul their rolling stock and engines. The usual order to hold freight cars on the initial lines is going into effect, and foreign cars are used for ship­ments off the lines, as far as possible. The Great Northern and the Northern Pacific, having more of a local busi­ness than other lines, are able to en­force this rule absolutely, while sys­tems with close eastern connections are doing the best they can to serve their patrons and at the same time hold the ca is within call.

The St. Louis road is in excellent shape for the crop movement. It has 500 new 60,000 capacity box cars com­ing, and has practically rebuilt the mogul engines bought four years ago. The company expects to be able to handle with facility its share of even a bumper crop.

The Soo road is also well equipped for handling all offerings this fall. It has unfilled orders for new cais, and has sufficient motive power to take care of its traffic. The Omaha has more cars than it had a year ago at this time, and has spent and is spend­ing much money on terminals, which the road considers the key to the situ­ation. The shops have been run near­ly full force in the slack season get­ting equipment ready.

The Milwaukee, Wisconsin Central and the Rock Island are preparing for heavy traffic this fall. Altho it is a new line, the Rock Island has not been for two seasons able to handle the crop traffic offered—a fairly good record. It expects to do well this sea­son.

SAWMILL BURNED $10,000 Fire Threatened to Destroy Whole

District. A fire in Johnson's planingmill at Four-

teenth avenue N and First street last Saturday afternoon threatened the en­tire district with destruction for a short time. But for the quick work of the department the high -wind wo aid soon have swept the flames beyond control

A large quantity of gasolene was stored In the Fulton-Libbey warehouse on Sec­ond street and extra effort was made to keep the flames away from this, as the explosion would have spread the fire so rapidly that the sawmill district probably would have been destroyed

The fire started in the boilerroom of the mill and soon spread to the dry lum­ber on the first floor The excessive heat and the unusually dense smoke overcame several firemen who had to be carried away.

The total loss on the Johnson mill and the yards adjacent was about $8,600 and the loss on the Fulton-Libbey sheds was about $1,400.

LOST IN THE CITY Man Four Children of Young America

Disappear. Fred Kilpatrick of Young America, a

small station on the St. Louis road, spent yesterday searching for his three daugh­ters and a son whom he lost shortly after his arrival in the city

Kilpatrick came to the city to see the town and brought his thiee daughters, ranging from 16 to 24 years of age, and his son, aged 20 years He had friends in South Minneapolis and told his children to go to South Minneapolis on a car to look for them Later Kilpatrick went to the same neighborhood, but found that his friends had moved and his children were not to be seen The police searched the city last night but found no tiace of them.

DISROBED BEFORE CROWD Young Man at Excelsior Believed to Be

Insane. John Mealey, son of a well-to-do farmer

living near Excelsior, surprised the Sun­day crowd at the lake yesterday by walk­ing out to the end of the pier and dis­robing He was locked up in the citv jail to await an examination as to his in­sanity

Saturday he started to knock down the town jail with stones and was arrested, but was released when his friends prom­ised to take care of him.

DETECTIVES DOUBT HER Think Fair Complainant Was Affected by

Heat or Something. A woman who lives on Seventh street

S, but who refused to give her name to the police, reported last night that she had been severely beaten by a man who had followed her home from Minnehaha Falls

She says the man fo lowed her about the paik during ih*> entire afternoon and when she came home he made several at­tempts to talk to her. When she was witl in a block of her home he became ui?'y and «truck her seveial blows m the face He then lan down First avenue S and escaped.

PENSION CAME LATE But In Time to Save a Veter?n from the

Potter's Field. Pension money amounting to $90 which

arrived just before the funeral of Josiah Hall, prevented the old soldier's body from being buried in the potter's field

Hall dropped dead on the street in St Bonifaclus last Friday and as he had no friends or money he was to have been buried at the expense of the county.

The government check arrived Saturday and was enough to purchase a lot for the veteran's burial.

New Life-Saving Gun. The life-saving gun is absojutely in­

dispensable to lifesavers at times when the surf runs so high as to pre­vent the launching of lifeboats. The old guns had been muzzle-loaders, and were hard to handle and ineffec­tive in wet weather. The Francis Hall gun is on a par with the latest rifles and so perfect that the TJ. S. army is equipping all revenue cutters, light­houses, government tugs and other coasting boats with this style. For protection from overwork and ex­haustion we advise golden grain belt beer as the most perfect product of modern times. No home is complete without a case of this delightful tonic,
