Adamson, the money lender, ac cused of usurious practices in connection with a $10 lean to J. C. Clark, was ar rested eaily this morning. H e was ar raigned before Judge Pond on the charge of extortion and given until Monday to plead. The defendant has been under in dictment before and served two years in the penitentiary for an offense similar to the one upon which he will now soon be tried. His ball was fixed at 5500. Adamson is accused of collecting $112 on a loan of $10 to J. C. Clark, secured by a mortgage on Clark's household ef fects. Adamson is said to have taken Clark's note for $12 for a loan of $10 pay able in thirty days. For several years, Mr. Clark alleges, he paid Adamson $2 per month until he had paid in all $112.

The County Attorney Not Daunted by the Confidence of the Defense. Former Captain of Police Charles R. Hill, indicted on two counts for bribery, will probably be tried Oct. 17, before Judge Pond. Altho no date has been set in open court the defendant's counsel has announced that the case is ready at any time, and the county attorney has so far mapped out his work that he has sub poenaed Lou Davis and other state's wit nesses against Hill to appear in court on the date named. Confidence seems to pervade the Hill camp and it is freely predicted among the accused man's friends that a con viction can never be secured. It is more evident than ever that the defense, as predicted some time ago in The Jour nal, will admit the paying of money for protection to the Ames officials, but will deny that Captain Hill ever received any of it, laying the stigma of taking the bribes upon the late Colonel Tanner. County Attorney Boardman, however, is not idle in thp mattei. Evidence is be ing looked up and the witnesses upon whose testimony before the grand jury the indictments were returned are being interviewed with the intention of warn ing them against perjury. Lou Davis, the star witness in the first Hill indict ment, spent some time in the county at torney's office yesterday and the county attorney wore a satisfied smile when the interview was finished The course taken by this and other wit nesses against Hill when they get in the witness chair is awaited with much in terest by those who have been following the case. TRIES TO PROVE ALIBI James Dermldy Seems Likely to Escape Thereby. James Dermidy, on trial for burglary in a Western avenue drug store is attempt ing to establish an alibi and his chances of an acquital seem good. A H. Hall, Dermidy's attorney, has skillfully sought by cross examination and by direct testi mony not only to prove an alibi but to lay the guilt upon Joseph Hencir, the former "pal" of the defendant and the state's principal witness The police say that the two boys, Der mldy and Hencir, have been implicated in some twenty burglaries of more or less importance and have the rest of the pro fession "beat out a mile" when it comes to nervy operations. They feel, however, that the present case against Dermidy mav be a little weak, but state that if he escapes on the present charge there is still another indictment and several more can be found on short notice Hencir was railed before the grand jury this morning, probably with this object in view.

Bearing of Jurors Points to Consider ation of Matters of Great Moment. ' Mystery surrounds the actions of the grand jury with legard to the council in vestigation. No aldermanic indictments have as yet been returned, but the In quisitors are still busy trying to find out things and everyone connected-in any way with the irvestigatlon Is kept on the qui vive. What may happen at any moment is the subject of general conjecture and there are several nervous individuals about town. Secret conferences between Judge C. M. Pond, who has charge of the criminal calendar, and C. A. Quist, foreman of the granu jury, and between the grand 3ury as a body were held this morning The apparent excitement among the jurymen after these meetings led to the conclusion that matters of unusual moment weie considered Indictments Returned. Yesterday afternoon the jury returned a batch of indictments. It is understooo that none was against aldermen or city officials. No time was lost by the grand jury men, however, in getting back to their room, where they continued their delib erations. Alderman Powers is said to have been subjected to an exhaustive ex amination, and later in the afternoon W. L. Harris, foreman of a recent grand jury, was called in to tell what his Jury had found out. Conference with Judge Pond. This morning all members of the inves tigating body were on hand early. Soon after 11 o'clock Foreman C. A. Quist ap peared in Judge Pond's courtroom and, speaking a word to his honor, proceeded into the chambers, whither Judge Pond followed shortly. A lengthy conference was held, while lawyers, prisoners, wit nesses, court officers and spectators waited and wondered. This conference had scarcely more than been closed when Judge Pond adjourned court for the noon recess and the entire grand Jury was ushered into the court's private room, which was closed and carefully guarded This session over, the jury returned to its room an& remained there late into the noon hour. Whether indictments are to follow is a question. If none is returned, the con clusion will be that the jury has simply been preparing its report to the court. "Hoff's Push Sale" Saturday, 20 Per Cent DAYTON'S BIG WEEK Pall Opening at the Daylight Store a Huge Success. Beautiful Departments Pilled With Choice Goods Attract Hundreds ^ of Women. The notable fall opening week at Day ton's comes to a close to-morrow night. In spite of unfavorable weather it has been a brilliant week in the big Daylight Store and erowds of expectant shoppers have been more than delighted with the Dayton fall opening The recent aUditTCn of more floor space to this splendid store makes the opening much mere pretentious than that of a year ago The store is beautifully decorated in rich autumn colors. The great white pil lars are festooned with generous garlands of autumnal flowers and leaves and the effect Is most striking. But in the eyes of the women the floral decorations are nothing compared with the great stock of beautiful fall goods. Every department is filled to overflowing with choice selec tions from the best markets in the world, and there is a feast in store for the eyes of those who have not yet "taken in" the Dayton opening. It is an opportunity not to be missed and it is safe to say that before to-morrow night is ended the greater portion of Minneapolis women will have given the Daylight store a thoro in spection. It is hard to say just what department is attracting the most attention but prob ably the roomy cloak and suit section on the second floor is the favorite. The showing here of cloaks, suits and furs is one of the finest ever seen in the north west. The department has been greatly enlaiged The fur section is especially fine this year, due in part to the fact that the store now has its own fur fac tory. Everything in fashionable, up-to date furs can be found here. There is seemingly no end to the splen did lines of cloaks and suits. The section is immense and any sized pocket book can find the desired suit or cloak. There are any number of exclusive suits and coats made specially for Dayton's. One of* the handsome patterns of the season that caused a good many admiring exclamations was a long coat of white broadcloth with a deep collar of hand made lace. There was also a most dainty opera cloak in champagne Melton cloth with applique of tan lace. There are many coats with rich fur trimmings that are very popular. There is an unusually large display of cravenette coats, traveling coats and zlbeline suits, and suits of mixed goods without number. The silk department, famous at Day ton's, is always a favorite with the buy ing public, and the stock this fall Is the largest and best in the history of the store. Among the beautiful pieces are Pekin striped poplins, Bengaline silk in soft shades, satin de. chine gauzes with embroidered dots, Persian striped velvets, Scotch and domestic plaid silk, jasper velours, jacquard and rachet taff etas and crepe de chines. Much of the success of the Dayton store is due to the efficient buyers and heads of departments. F. Rasmussen, who has the cloak department in charge Miss Buell, the one for girls' costumes A. H. Bond, who handles drug sundries, leather goods, notions and jewelry James Henderson, the dress goods Miss Mary Sullivan, the trimmings Seth Leffham, the linens and white goods W. B. Dicker son, the shoes W. J. Sayre, the base ment Miss Sayde Hynes, the gloves Alexander Rose, the ribbons and umbrel las, as well as the art goods, and R. E. Esterley, the office floor, are all well known to Minneapolis shoppers, and have helped to make the fall opening the splendid success that It is. *- Another department that is deserving of mention is that of men's furnishing goods, -which has been made a splendid success under the management of John H. Givins. Mr. Givins also has charge of the underwear and hosiery depart ment for women and children. Chamber Election ResultsThe regular ticket went thru at the Chamber of Com merce election yesterday. James Marshall is president for another term and George F. Piper, vice president.

Decreased Flour Production Is Hav ing an Effect on Cooper Shops. The mill managers do not appear 'to be greatly alarmed over the threatened sym pathetic strike of the stationary engineers in their employ, ordered for 4 p. m. to day. "But two mills now In operation Could possibly be closed by such a strike," said John Washburn of the Washburn-Crosby company this morning. "The Crown Roller and the Humboldt mills might have to close down because they are depending on steam, but all the other mills now running are using water power and even if the engineers go out I think we can All their places without much trouble." The milling companies say that an in justice has, been done them by the publi cation in a morning paper of a statement that the men now in the mills are being charged |3.50 a week for board and sleep ing accommodations and $1.50 for over alls. "There Is absolutely no truth in the re- port," said a representative of the Wash burn-Crosby company this morning. "When we take the men Into the mills we guarantee to give them steady em ployment, no matter how many of the union men come back, and we also guar antee them board and sleeping accommo dations. These are gratis as are the over alls, and if any charge has been made any of our employes for these things we would like to find it out, because if such is really the case somebody has been dis obeying Instructions. "In time to come, If conditions continue as they are, we may change our system but there is now no 'hold back' and there will be none and before we begin to make any charge for the things we are fur nishing our men we will give them ample notice."

The records kept by the caterer who is in charge of the dining-room in which the mill employes are fed show that yester day, exclusive of the midnight lunch and of other lunches he served new and late comers, he served 1,900 meals yesterday, during the breakfast, dinner and supper hours. This means that there are about 650 men now employed, in the mills, as some of them are still sleeping and tak ing some of their meals at home. Be tween 1,600 and 1,800 men went out on strike. Some of the new men, notably the uni versity and high school students, have grown tired of the unaccustomed labor and have retired from the milling busi ness, but the number of recruits more than counterbalances the number of de sertions and the mill foremen appear to be rapidly organizing their forces The official report of the railroads show that the Washburn-Crosby company shipped fifty-four carloads of flour yes terday, the Pillsbury-Washburn company 35 and the Consolidated 15, a total of 104. The total for Wednesday was 85 carloads and for Tuesday and Monday several car loads lessshowing'a gradual Increase in the mills' shipments. There is no longer any doubt that some of the strikers have returned to their old positions. The number, however, is small and while the mHI owners take this de fection in the ranks as a good omen, the strikers refuse to show any alarm over it. 1 ^ No ChlftT Labor* i(rf-!&f>r * "There is no stSh/thtng as child labor jn the flour mills5," uty state fabor comiKlfsionerv after mak ing a four of the operating mills this morning. Mr. Ellis' tour was made to satisfy him self that there was nothing in the report published in an afternoon paper that the mill managers were violating the child labor law by employing boys of less than 16 years. He was accompanied by Super intendent Harding of the Washburn Crosby mills and William H. Hastings of the Consolidated Milling company "If you can And anybody in our mills under 16 years of age you will do us a favor," said the officials, but Mr. Elhs found no employes of less than 18 years. "There is no work or place for kids down there," he remarked. Flour Output increasing. All the flour mills which were running yesterday were running to-day and the report from the railroads showed that the output of yesterday was much larger than that of Tuesday or Monday. "We will get along all right," said Su perintendent H. O. B. Harding of the Washburn-Crosby tfnllls. "The increased output shown in the railroads' reports is due as much to the increasing skill of the men as to the increase in their numbers. "We arc really getting more men than we want to take on and habe begun to pick and choose with more care than we showed at first beeause we are taking the men on for good, or as long as they want to stay and do the work." Pickets were at a premium this morn ing in the mill district, most of the strikers being at their usual morning meeting in the Union Temple. The mill ing companies took down to the mills about fifty men during the morning. FELT BY COOPERS The Demand for Flour Packages Dropped Off. The strike of the flour mill employes is beginning to make itself felt among other laboring men, and the xsoopers and bag makers are among the first to feel the shbe pinch. The decreased output of the flour mills has suddenly deprived the cooper shops which supply them with barrels and the "bag manufacturers who supply them with bags of some very valuable customers and as a result the'cooper shops have either closed down or are running half time or are facing the necessity of closing down In the near future. Five firms supply the Minneapolis flour mills with barrels, and not a firm has received a large order from the mills since the strike was declared over a week ago. This is partly due to the fact that most of the mills were long on barrels when the trouble with their employes ter minated in the strike. The-North Star Barrel company, which, with the Co-Operative Barrel Manufactur ing company, supplies the Pillsbury-Wash burn mills, has not received an order since the strike was declared, and Is only running because It has room in its ware house for its product. The company em ploys about seventy-five men and boys. The Co-operative company closed down Saturday night and threw 100 employes out of work. The Minneapolis Cooperage company is down and its forty employes are out of work indefinitely. The Hennepin County Barrel company, which, with the Cooper age company supplies the Washburn Crosby mills, proposes to shut down to night, thus throwing out of employment ninety-five men. For the past week the plant has been manufacturing everything but flour barrels The Hardwood Manufacturing company, which supplies barrels for the Consoli dated mills, has been running on half time for several days and may shut down its cooper shop entirely. This would throw out of employment about seventy five men and boys. With the exception of the Minneapolis Cooperage and the hardwood companies, the barrels for the mills are made in co operative shops which makes a sym pathetic strike, in case of the shops resum ing manufacturing, a most remote possi bility, unless the machine tenders should strike in sympathy with the mill em ployes.

To .Call Out Engineers. At a meeting of the stationary en gineers' union in Holcomb's hall last night it was decided to call out the members of the union employed in the mills, and the hour for this sympathetic strike was set at 4 o'clock this afternoon. A sum of money was voted by the lock smiths' union last night to be used In aid of the strikers. At strike headquarters, In the Corn Ex change, the pickets are making every ef fort to find work for those recruits whom they take away from the enlisting forces of the mills. They claim to have placed a number of these at $2.25 a day. The employment agencies are also being ap pealed to. The Market Record of Thursday gives the shipment of Minneapolis flour Wednes day as 20,855 barrels, which would credit the mills affected by the strike with about 17,000 barrels. This corresponds to the claims made by the mill managers and is about one-third of the normal output. "W. B. McBwen of Duluth, secretary and treasurer Qf the State Federation of Labor, will speak at Union Temple, at the strikers' meeting Saturday morning at 9 o'clock. said, Joseph Ellis, rep- DOWNE Y IS HADE DEAN Long and Faithful Services of the Professor Recognized by the Regents. Professor John F. Downey, as the re ward of twenty-three years faithful ser vice in the mathematical department of the state university, was appointed dean of the qollege of science, literature and arts by the board of regents yesterday. The office is a new one in the university. R. R. Shumway was made instructor in mathematics to fill the vacancy caused by Professor Downey's promotion. Requirements for admission to the col lege of homepathy were discussed and it was finally decided to admit high school graduates for the next two years, after which students applying for admission must have had one year's work in the academic department. It was decided that an exhibit of uni versity work at the St. Louis exposition would be a good thing and J. G. Clark was authorized to communicate with the ex position management in regard to the plan. President Northrup was voted a vaca tion to be taken at his pleasure some time duhlng the coming winter. The resigna tion of Dr. Fulton of the medical college was tendered and accepted. Resolutions were passed to the effect that the regents should take entire charge of the work done in the dental infirmary. Governor Van Sant emphatically denied the rumor that there was a vacancy on the board of regents.
