The evidence was submitted by Ref eree G. F. Hitchcock yesterday, and brief arguments were made today by Harlan Roberts, attorney for the relator, and John H. Steele, attorney for the defendant.

A chimney on the Western Union building at Third stieet and Hennepin avenue was torn from its moorings by a guy rope of the big republican banner this noon and precipitated an avalanche of brick on the sidewalk. I was by the merest chance that no one was killed 01 even seriously miured, as the corner is a busy one. There were two narrow escapes, one loiterer having .-just left his perch on the railing a moment befoie the bricks came down, while another had just en tered the printing office of Currier & Ballentme in the basement, when bricks struck the stairway behind him. Building Commissioner J. G. Hough ton had the danger area roped off and ordered the banner taken down, as the ropes were tearing away the cornice. "Who says Bob Dunn hasn't got a pull?" said Harry A.

I want, to get a warrant for my husband's arrest,'' exclaimed Mrs, John Wotcheck as she entered the office of the Humane society at the courthouse this morning. "Does he refuse to support you?" asked Agent Van Etten, who knew that Mrs. Wotcheck and her husband did not get on well together. "N o, not for that," replied the woman. "Has he been beating you?" queried the agent. "N o, he hadn't better try that," re sponded the excited woman. "He knows that I am a better man than he and can whip him any day he ever saw.'' "Well, what has he done that you want to have him arrested?" "He stole my false teeth almost shouted the woman, "and 1 want him arrested. He had no business to take them and they are of no use to him. I watn the villain sent to jail.'' "You know Wotcheck and I sold our house," explained the woman, "and bought a.horse and wagon with which to go peddling in "South Dakota. One day we had a quarrel and he put me out of the wagon and told me he was going to leave me. I made him give me a dollar and hetopk the horse and left me the wagon. Before he left he choked me until my teeth came out, and he put them in his pocket and rode off. I have never seen him since. "Well, I went to the nearest town and sold the wagon for enough to pay my way back to Minneapolis and now I want -to get him arrested." Mr. Van Etten advised the woman to go to the city attorney, which she did, but no warrant has been issued, as the officials believe there .may be two sides to the story.

The new electric van, the largest iu the world, ordered by the Pillsbury Washburn company, arrived yesterday and was given its speed trial this morn ing. I was found to answer every claim set forth by the manufacturers, and is unique every particular. The truck has a carrying capacity of 15,000 pounds and is twenty feet by seven, the height being twelve feet. The running gear is painted green while the body is artistically decorated in white. Attractive advertising designs are included in the decora tions. The car will be used to deliver flour to the local dealers and Pillsbury's Best can be stored in it so that no mat ter how inclement the weather the flour cannot possibly suffer. The car is electric and the design is so simple that it can be run by an op erator without any previous experi ence. I is charged to run twenty-five miles and has a speed of eight to ten miles an hour. WILL TRY TO PUT IT THRU SUPPORTERS OF CLARK SALOON ORDINANCE WANT A VOTE ON IT FRIDAY Much quiet work is being done by the supporters of the Clark liquor license ordinance to secure its passage at the council meeting next Friday evening The ordinance would have passed last week if several aldermen had not dodged. Pressure will be brought to bear on the aldermen who are playing into the hands of the op position by remaining away, to be on hand next Friday and vote one way or the other. Alderman Clark and his friends were considerably surprised over the action of Alderman S. E. Adams, McLaskey, Vaughan and Nye in voting to send the ordinance back to the committee on licenses, as it was plainly a dilatory move and made for no other, purpose than to lay the measure away until after election. I is feared that the ordinance cannot be passed then, for it has been noticed that the aldermen are more sus ceptible to untoward influences when an election is far away, and the people are not watching them as closely as at pres ent. Keepers of orderly saloons have no obiection to the ordinance, as they have no fear of having their licenses re voked, and the only persons the least affected are such as wilfully maintain winerooms. When a saloonkeeper knows that he can, in the event of his license being revoked, go down to the city treasurer's office and there secure a rebate for the whole unexpired portion of his license fee, and then obtain an other license in the name of his wife or his bartender, he is likely to take longer chances at overstepping the law than if he knew that his money would be for feited in the event that the license was revoked. HOLD-UP SUSPECTS Two Men Arrested in Connection with the Nelson Robbery. Thomas Henderson and James Mc Cann were arrested yesterday and are held at the Central station as suspects in the hold-up of Chris Nelson's saloon Wednesday night. Both men answer the description of the highwaymen, but Nelson cannot positively identify them. Both these men were seen hanging around the saloon an hour before the hold-up occurred. McCann and Henderson were in po lice court this morning charged with vagrancy. They were found guilty and Vvere fined $25 each. The two women arrested with them pleaded guilty to tlio same charge and received the same &entinee.

Plans for a Long Rest at Her Mother's Home at Mt. Carmel, 111., Before Tak ing Up Any Serious WorkHer Suc cessor Not Chosen by Dick Ferris. Grace Hayward. who in private life is Mrs. Dick Ferries and who for three years has appeared with much success in leading roles at the Lyceum, contem- Eer lates leaving the stage and devoting time to literary work. Miss Hayward will make her final ap pearance at the Lyceum week after next in the leading role of "Leah, the Jewish." She will then take a vaca tion trip to New York. There she will consider several offers she has had to -join eastern companies, but with the desire at heart which she will probably carry out, of retiring to her mother's quiet, beautiful country home at Mount Carmel, 111., then to rest from several years of continuous work on the stage and spend her time in literary pursuits. Miss Hayward has already attained some fame from the work of her pen. She has written considerable verse and the dramatization of Graustark,'' one of the most successful plays ever pro duced at the Lyceum, was entirely her work. I have a new play almost com pleted.' said Miss Hayward this morn ing, "and I look forward with much pleasure to completinge tiful little *denJ it the beau- I hav at Mount Car mel, as well as to starting other liter ary work. I shall be sorry to leave all my friends in Minneapolis, and yet I think I have earned a rest and Mount Carmel is an ideal place to recuperate." The question of a successor to Miss Hayward in the Ferris Stock company is not vet decided. After Miss Hayward leaves, I think will try to get a new leading lady about every ten weeks," said Mr. Fer ris this morning. "Miss Florence Stone, who proveu so popular here last summer, is under a contract to begin work in London Jan. 1, but if I can infringe on this contract I will try to engage her for a while. I am also fig uring on securing Miss Beryl Hope, now at Nashville, Tenn., who was very successful last year with the Columbia Theater Stock company of Brooklyn, N. Y." Miss Stone is at present in Minne apolis visiting friends. Play Football Game With "Hoff." First prize, $50 suit second prize, $22 coat 50c purchase one guess. "Hoff." DISCARDS PLOW FOR THE SPADE FALL "PLOWING" AT WORK HOUSE DONE BY HAND. Superintendent McDonald Had to Make Work for City Prisoners in Order to Keep Them from Growing Unruly Closing Down of Quarries Causes All the Trouble. 4v Scarcity of labor, at vthe ^fY^WW^ff^W'^l-g' workhouse has compelled 'Superintendent Frank McDonald to'retimT to primitive meth ods of farming. Until the city fathers decide what the "Weary Willies" are to do, the spade will be substituted for the plow in all garden work. Since the work in the quarries was suspended by order of the council, many of the prisoners have not bad enough to do to keep them out ot mischief. Peel ing potatoes and assorting garden truck is about the only work to be done, and that has been hardly strenuous for the men who are accustomed to live by their wits. The idleness has made trouble for the guards, who have their hands full keeping order. When time came for the fall plow ing, Superintendent McDonald had a happy thought, and decided not to bring out the plow at all, but to get a wagon load of spades. Accordingly, the men were set to work this week spading up the soil. In this way the work is done fully as well as under more modern methods, and, besides, the plan will keep the men busy for several weeks, where otherwise thev would be men of leisure. In the meantime the council will have time to supply permanent em ployment. WHEAT CROWDS LUMBER PACIFIC COAST LUMBERMEN COMPLAIN THAT CARS ARE ALL UTILIZED I N THE WHEAT TRADE. Peculiar conditions that may never be duplicated are working to produce a hardship on the Pacific coast lumber dealers. Pressure of grain-carrying to the east is said to make it impossible for the north coast lines to take care of eastbound lumber and shingles. Rep resentatives of the transcontinentals report that, so far as they are con cerned, there is no car shortage. Lunir ber and shingle brokers complain that the roads are not taking care of them. Unusual conditions result from the high price of local wheat, making it possible to utilize the soft wheat of the west coast states for muring pur poses Sixty per cent of this wheat passed thru Duluth for lake shipment east A large proportion of the rest of the wheat goes thru Minneapolis for Chicago, from which point it is distrib uted where needed Much of this wheat is diverted to Michigan for use of breakfast food concerns in mixing w^h other wheat Winter-wheat millers in Ohio and other points east and south of Chicago are beginning to use the wheat with profit under the prevailing high prices of northern wheat and the scarcity of the product this year in Minnesota and the Dakotas. Portland, Ore., reports that of from 12,000,000 to 15,000,000 bushels already sold on the eastern market, not over one-third has been forwarddd. Professor W. L. Underwood of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology reports that mosquito larve are a fav orite food for goldfish, and that the introduction of goldfish into many small streams of New England where mosqui toes breed would be preferable to the use of kerosene in destroying the pest.

CAMPAIGN OF LOVELY IT I S BEING MANAGED BY PER- SONAL FRIENDS, AND NOT BY POLITICIANS. State Senator Morgan of Faribault, who is managing the campaign of Jus tice Lovely of the state supreme court for re-election, has been spending sev eral days in St. Paul and Minneapolis, and this morning predicted that Justice Lovely would carry both Ramsey and Hennepin counties. I am much encouraged," he said, "over the friendly feeling I find here for Judge Lovely. I makes me feel sure of his election. I believe he will carry Ramsey and Hennepin I know h(- is very strong thruout southern Min-' nesota, where he is so well known, and word comes that the voters in the north will remember him Nov. 8. Mr. Lovely is not operating a polit ical campaign His interests are being looked after by former State Senator Knatvold, former State Senator H. H. Dunn and myself. Thruout the state such organizations as he has is one of friends and not politicians. I is an organization that is working for the man, and not for money, and on an en tirely nonpartizan basis. "For this reason I wish to deny strongly a statement made in a St. Paul paper that the Dunn forces in southern Minnesota have made a com bine with the friends of Justice Lovely. Justice Lovely has entered into no com pact with any political candidate." HELP FROM IOWA Former Congressman Butler Spellbinds for Democrats on National Issues. Ex-Congressman Butler of Des Moines, Iowa, has come to Minneapolis to help democracy along. Mr. Butler spoke at two places last evening, at Normanna hall, and in the democratic circus tent, pitched last night at Thirty-seventh ave nue S and Lake street. He spoke about an hour at each place. He began by attacking the republican tariff system and the republican policy in the Philip pines. He asserted that history shows 149 republics and kingdoms have ul timately collapsed because of adopting a policy of expansion, and that the United States has plenty of room with out extending to the distant islands of the sea.

BIG Low Grade of Minnesota and South Da kota Force Minneapolis Millers Across Border to Maintain High Quality of Their FlourJohn Wash hum on the Situation. John Washburn, James S. Bell and William H. Dunwoody of the Washburn Crosby company returned this morning from Winnipeg. They bought a round lot of Manitoba wheat to come to Min neapolisprobably close to one million bushels. This wheat will be ground in the Minneapolis "B" mill of the com pany, and when received will go into the St. Anthony elevator until the mill is ready for it." The "B" mill and the St. Anthony elevator were bonded two years ago, and were operated thru the winter season, some two million bushels of Canadian wheat being used. This announcement, in connection with the Palisade mill and Union ele vator of' the Pillsbury-Washburn com pany, means that milling of Canadian wheat bond will be carried on this winter in Minneapolis on a large scale. The wheat supply situation on the American side is such that millers can already see that there is a scarcity of milling wheat in sight. Much of the Minnesota and South Dakota wheat is of too low a grade to make good flour. Just how much mill ing wheat there is in Amenca will not be known until Chief Statistician John Hyde of the department of agricul ture makes his report, about Dec. 1. Meanwhile, however, the situation is sufficiently clear to cause the Minne apolis millers to turn to the Canadian northwest for the choice material. John Washburn savs there has been a wonderful development in Canada in the past year. Winnipeg is growing rapidly. *'The first impression an American receives who goes across the line is a feeling of regret that the de velopment, so much evidence, is not within our confines. But this is a su perficial view. One soon sees that ev ery step in the forward progress of the Canadian northwest means a gain for Minneapolis. Our city is coming more and more into touch with this growing, land. For years nearly every big proi ect of importance up there has been financed from eastern Canada. This relationship we Americans cannot dis turb, but we are getting interests and sometimes controlling interests in new enterprises, and I believe the time will come when Minneapolis wall be the cen ter to which this vast country will large ly turn for financial backing. "The new Soo line, Minneapolis-Win nipeg extension, is the greatest proiect now under way looking to the benefit of Minneapolis. The importance of this ad ditional rail connection between the two growing cities can scarcely be overesti mated. From what I saw, I believe the new line will have business enough at the start to make it a paying proposi- tion." THE ONLY ONE-PRICE PIANO STORE IN MINNEAPOLIS. G.
