FROM SENATOR WASHBTON Distinguished Minneapolitan Writes of

European Tout. v

A personal letter from former Sena­tor W. D. Washburn, written May 2 at St. Petersburg, has just come to hand, from which it appears that the aerator and his party have had a de­lightful trip from southern Europe, thru Spain, the south of France, Italy and Greece to Constantinople, then north thru the Balkan states into Hun­gary and Austria and on to the Eussian capital on the Neva. Senator Wash­burn finds St. Petersburg much more of a city than he anticipated, tho he visited it some fifteen tyears ago. He finds it has improved ^greatly during the interval, and is well up to date in almost every way.

At the time .of hts writing, every­thing, he says, was quiet and peaceful, altho the people were then looking forward with ^ anxious anticipation to tho meeting of the douma^

indicating the interest in fine residence property which is selling at prices with­in leach of all.

Like all of Mr. Walton's auctions, holiday festivities were everywhere jn evidence. Battery B band, speeches by Holland Norman Van Buskirk and a hilarious half hour with W. I. Nolan kept the crowds in excellent humor.

The sales will be continued on Mon­day and Tuesday afternoons with the same attractions, music, picnic features and the selection of lots.

ANDERSON'S AUTO A HOUSE ON WHEELS

Boston Man's New Car Fitted with Combination Bed and Bureau, with Complete Kitchen and Dining Room.

Special Cable to The Journal. Paris, May 19.—Of all the auto­

mobiles ever turned out bv Freneh manufacturers, the one lately made for Captain Larz Anderson of Boston seems to be entitled to the prize for originality. I t is a huge machine, fitted up for long tours and in point or speed equals any of the present-day touring cars.

The Anderson car is fitted out with reversible furniture. Tphere is a com­bination bed and bureau that is cer­tainly a work of art and then there is a cookstove and dining table arrange­ment that can be hauled out at a mo­ment's notice. The whole machine, in fact , is a kind of miniature hotel on wheels, with accommodations for eat­ing, sleeping or idling according to the fancy of the owner or his guests.

CLARK SUES ROAD AGAIN

Maurice L. Rothschild Makes a Record-Breaking Run from Windy City.,

Maurice L. Rothschild arrived in Min­neapolis yesterday after a record-break­i n g run joi thirty-six hours from Chicago in his* 45%horse power touring car. He was >#c&QmpTanied on this trip by his wife, Oscar Meyer of Chicago and his chauffeur, Paul Prawalski.

The machine carried a huge cloth streamer with the characters "Chicago to Minneapolis," and created a sensa­tion, with its neat and trim appearance, despite* the long run.

The party left Chicago early Wednes­day morning and reached Dubuque in the evening'; making a record-break­ing trip in one day. After putting up for the night in Dubuque thev left for Waterloo, reaching that place the same evening. Leaving Waterloo at 5:40 in the morning they reached Charles City, where they were confronted by the sheriff, who took the liberty of holding up the party at the point of a revolver, stating that they were under arrest and that it was necessary either to go back, or to give a bond for $200. The matter was finallv decided by Mr. RothBchild paying $25.

There seems to be a general senti­ment in this part of Iowa that auto­mobile tourists are legitimate prey. This spirit is not apparent at any other point of the tour. This experience was the only inconvenience encountered by the party during the entire trip be­tween Chicago and Lyle, Minn. From there to Owatonna the roads were in a deplorable condition. Otherwise the party would have been able to save four or five hours and reach Minneap­olis Friday night instead of at 2:40 Saturday afternoon.

The strikers were employed in the sampling mill and struck for an eight-hour working day without a reduction in pay.

Helena, Mont., May 19.—Pleadings in the case of J. P. Clark against the Northern Pacific railway company were received in the United States court here today, on removal from the Mis­soula district court.

A motion was also filed in the same case by Wallace & Donnelly demanding that all proceedings be stayed until the plaintiff shall pay -$31.30 into court to repay costs incurred by the railroad company in defending two actions brought by Clark for the same cause in Minnesota and dismissed at his ex­pense.

Clark was a brakeman on a freight train running between Missoula and Helena, and alleged that while at Gar­rison, riding on the ladder of a car and engaged in braking, he was jerked from his hold by the sudden applica­tion of the air brakes and thrown be­neath the wheels of the moving train. His arm, he says*, was permanently maimed and stiffened and his leg in­jured. He asks $15,000 damages.

Spectacular Chicago Fire Exhibition Feature of This Year's Show.

By Publiahn' Press. Chicago, May 19.—The N "White

Ci ty ," Chicago's Coney island, opened its gates to the public tonight for the inauguration of. its second season to a crowd that overflowed the limits of the big enclosure.

The feature that was apparently the drawing card was the realistic reproduc­tion of the Chicago fire, which has not taken second place in the world's ca­tastrophes since the advent of the San Francisco halocoust.

The second great feature is the Lilli­putian village, inhabited entirely by diminutive people, and showing -just how they lived, moved and had their being.

The exposition is apparently as popu­lar this season as it was in its initial year, and its attractions are more va­ried.

The body of the suicide is held in an undertaking establishment awaiting possible identification. Detectives and deputies from the coroner's office today made a minute examination of it. The man's measurements were compared with those of the fugitive professor and were fonud to differ greatly.
