DON'T WANT IT KNOWN THAT
MINNEAPOLIS IS ON THE MAP.
The third rmmber of the Commercial
club Chronicle, which is issued occa
sionally, has appeared. It marks the
closing of the club year as the annual
meeting will be held Nov. 14. The
Chronicle is a four page sheet and the
current number contains a review "of
the different matters which have been
i considered by the public affairs and the
subsidiary committees. It covers water
filtration, lake levels, the fix rate,
i Fort Snelling addition, tho new places
of amusement, the Soo extension, prizes
at St. Louis, building operations, and
other matters of public interest.
Under the head "Railroad TJnfair
A ness the editor, Wallace G. Nye, says:
Travelers have frequently Com
1 plained to officers of the club that at
many points they are unable to secure
I tickets to Minneapolis, but are given
tickets with St. Paul' either printed
or written, as the destination. A most
flagrant case of this character reached
us recently. A lady asked at San Jose,
Cal., for a ticket to Minneapolis, and
was told by the agent that he could not
issue a ticket to Minneapolis, but to
St. Paul only. She accepted a ticket
reading^ to St. Paul and her trunk was
checked to that city. Upon arrival
there, she was obliged to purchase a
ticket to Minneapolis and recheck her
trunk, causing^ a most annoying delay.
"The public affairs committee has
now taken up this question, and will
insist that Minneapolis be treated
fairly."
THE "UNDER ROUTE"
William Brooks Found This the Quick

William Brooks, colored, accused of
assaulting William Waterman with a
revolver in a poolroom at 206 Washing
ton avenue S, was held in the police
court this morning to the grand iury
in $500 bail. William Aylor gave a de
scription of the affray.
"Brooks pulled a gun, said Aylor,
Waterman made a grab for it, the gunto
went off and I went under the table
"Why didn't you go out the door?"
asked Mr. Morris, Brooks' attorney.
I did, responded the witness,
"but the table was between me and
the door and I thought the under route
safest.''

FOUR SUSPECTS
BEFORE THE BAB
PLEAD NOT GUILT* TO PILLS-
BUEY JEWEL THEFT CHARGES.
Chicago Police Say Suspects Can Fur
nish Almost Any Amount of Cash
Ball, and I Is Feared That the Quar
tet May Not Appear for Trial.
Charles Sweeney, Frank Nooman.
Bernice Lee and Liyie Hendricks,
charged with stealing the Pillsbury
jewels, were arraigned before Juttge A.
M. Harrison this morning on charges of
burglary in the third degree. Charges
of grand larceny in the second degree
were also made against the four pris
oners, and they will be tried on tfris
charge in case the burglary case fails.
They pleaded not guilty and bail was
fixed at $1,500 each.
Detectives Egan and Norton of the
Desplaines street station, Chicago, who
made the arrest, told the Minneapolis
officers that the suspects could furnish
almost any amount of cash bail, and the
police here fear they may never appear
for trial. A Chicago lawyer is already
here to look after their cases.
Detectives Helin and Hanson, who
intercepted the four as they were on
their way to a Chicago court for a pre
liminary hearing on another charge,
make light of the report that warrants
are out charging them with contempt
of court. They say that if there is any
illfeeling over the affair it is entirely
confined to their friends. Detectives
Norton and Egan were with the Min
neapolis men while the little program
was being carried out, and Heli ami
Hanson think they would be likely to
know the dangers' surrounding the "pro
cedure.
The credit for the capture is given
to the Chicago men who worked on the
case, as tho it had been their own.
They not only arrested the men and
found the "plant,'' but have found
more stolen goods since the Minneap
olis officers left. If the men are con
victed, Norton and Egan will be cred
ited with one of the big catches of the
year Chicago police records.

LINEMAN MEETS DEATH
He Receives the Fatal Current While
Working Aloft.
Jack Connor, a lineman for the Twin
City Rapid Transit company, was killed
by a live wire while working on new
lines at Twentieth avenue N and Lyn
dale.
Connor was sitting on the iron arm
that supports the feedwire. He was
handling a heavy feedwire and the end
of it came in contact with another wire.
The'shock lifted Connor up from the
pole and then dropped him to the
ground. Immediately his clothing was
a mass of flames. He was covered
with blankets from a nearby wagon and
taken to the city hospital, but died at
6 o'clock last evening.
Connor was about 30 years old and
single. He lived at a hotel in the
Midway district and had no relatives
here. The body is at the county
morgue.

Oilman Could Have Remained Free by

George Gilman, a laborer, who had
been in the harvest fields of western
Minnesota returned to his home at 607
Monroe street NE, Sunday night to get
his clothing and found an officer who
arrested him on a charge of nonsupport,
preferred by his wife. In police court
this morning he waived examination
and was held to the district court in
$200 bail.
Mrs. Gilman testified that her hus
band left her in August, and since then
she had supported herself and four
children, ranging in ago from sixteen
months to nine years, by taking in wash
ing. Do all that she might, she was
unable to keep the wolf from the dooT,
and was compelled to accept aid from
charitable institutions.
Gilman admitted the truth of the
story, but refused to support his wife,
preferring to go to jail.

The first day of November has proved
be the most delightful day of the

of about 31 degrees may be expected.
The warmest November was in 1899,
with an average of 41, the coldest in
1896, 23. The. highest temperature
reached was on the sixth day, 1893,out

it fell to 13 degrees below zero.
JEWELRY DEFINED
Customhouse Ruling as to
and Glass Beads.
Is a nun's crucifix an article of jew

The decision that it is not, but is
worn for a religious purpose has ~Tee
rendered by the customhouse and there
bv the duty levied will be from 15 to
25 per cent lower than on crucifixes
imported as jewelry. With the same
basis for a decision, religious medals or
emblemB of devotion, will be admitted
at a lower rate of duty. Such articles
hereafter will be classified as mer
chandise.
At the same time the decision reached
in regard to glass ornaments, cut and
colored black, used as pendants on
fringes and trimmings, which have been
one of the prevailing fashions "for the
past few months, may be driven out of
tyle thru the raising of the duty from
35 per cent to 60 per cent ad valorem,
as it has been decided that they aren ot
beads but jewelry, being over an inch

PASTOR WAGNER'S"
STUDY OF AMERICA
HE VISITS PUBLIC SCHOOLS AND
STATE UNIVERSITY.
He Enjoys a Halloween Party and Says
"The Man Who Understands Not
Fun, Understands Nothing"Pays
His Respects to Archbishop Ireland,
Whom He Praises Most Warmly.
In his lecture last night Rev. Charles
Wagner said he came to America to
learn rather than to teach^ Today he
has given his whole time to learning
something of the graded school system
of Minneapolis. This morning, Mr.
Wagner and Professor Koenig, accom
panied by Mr. and Mrs. George Harri
son, were present at the opening exer
cises of the Douglas school. A little
later a more extended visit was made
to the big Adams school, where special
attention was given to the first primary
rooms and the eighth grade. To the
older pupils Mr. Wagner spoke with en
thusiasm of their splendid attitude
towards their educational opportunities.
The school choir of 600 voices, which
sang patriotic songs, aroused Mr. Wag
ner's enthusiasm to the highest pitch,
and in thanking the children he gave
them some fine patriotic thoughts.
A visit to the university followed,
where calls were maxle on President
Northrop and Dr. Richard Bui ton. At
the East high school Mr. Wagner vis
ited the French, manual training and
drawing departments and spoke to the
students in the assembly rooms.
Pastor Wagner's deep interest in and
sympathy with young people was shown
last night. He was told before his lec
ture that a young people's Halloween
party was going on in the parlors. He
expressed a desire to see it and was es
corted into the room late in the even
ing, while the crowd was being enter
tained with some rolicking topical
songs. In order that he might see
well, the unconventional preacher
climbed on a kitchen table and was a
deeply interested spectator.
He told the young people later that
he was delighted to see the celebration
of "their funny day" and to be in it.
He caught at the nack-o 'lantern idea as
a figure of speech in his talk, calling
pumpkins "your big apples," whose
heavy features have oeen lighted up by
the inner light in the same way that
noy lightens life. He assured his
hearers that "the man who understands
not fun, understands nothing."
Yesterday afternoon Pastor Wagner
and Professor Koenig paid their re
spects to Archbishop Ireland, who com
manded their deep admiration. In the
discussion of French affairs the ap
proval by the archbishop of loyalty to
country gave much pleasure to his vis
itors, who told him with fervor that
they wished they could see him fill the
archiepiscopal throne of Paris.
This afternoon Pastor Wagner and
Professor Koenig were the guests of Mr.
and Mrs. D. Simons. They leave this
evening for Chicago.

ANOTHER WAR SCARE
KITES DECEMBER WHEAT
Another war scare Swept in on the
Chamber of
Commerce/
floor today an
put wheat up to $1.161
for Decemberd
against yesterday's low point of
$1.13%. Considerable bullish news had
already been received, and,when it was
reported that the British fleet was get
ting ready for action, and that the Rus
sian fleet had left Vigo, there wad a
scaie on.
After the pit cooled off a little, prices
fell back a cent.
Their sudden spurt and reaction
brought revival of the talk of the prob
able effect of a great war upon the mar
ket 'em fight. We'll sell 'em the
the stuff" is a fair condensation of sen
timent on change. One old time trader,
an officer of the Chamber, whose exper
ience in the grain trade runs back to
the Franco-Prussian war, and the Rus
sian Turkish war, says that if England
and Russia should clash, wheat would go
up twenty-five cents over night.
'Millers who are watching the south
west are a little disturbed over the
dry weather reported in Kansas. Win
ter wheat should be a big crop next
year to even up for the losses last sea
son, and as wheat prices are high it is
likely a big acreage has been put in.
To carry this wheat into the winter in
good condition ram should fall soon, and
there has been no rain for some time.
DULUTH DELIGHTED
Its Experience with Home Rule Char
ter Satisfactory.
Duluth is one of the cities Which has
adopted a home rule charter. Her ex
perience with it has been quite satis
factory, as may be seen from the fol
lowing expression from Mayor Hugo of
Duluth. Mr. Hugo says:
I have nothing but good -vfords for the
Duluth city charter, and as it came into
effect with my first election to the may
or's chair and as I had experience with
it at its worst state of misunderstanding
it would be natural to suppose that I
would have some fault to find with it
but 4ll the apparent difficulties passed
away and in "my opinion we have the only
kind of a charter a city can afford to
have. From overdrawn funds of for
mer charters we have funds with a sur
plus from outstanding orders We are on
a cash basis, there is nothing I would
want to change in our present charter
except it might be to give the council
authority when, by unanimous vote, they
decided that a street improvement was
necessary, that it could be ordered with
a petition from the property owners.
Outside of that (and many good citizens
do not agree with that view of the case),
I think it exactly fits the case and is a
splendid safeguard against extravagance,
poor business methods and shifty devices,
besides bein (at least it acts that way)
an incentive for the heads of departments
to make the best showing with the funds
at their disposal, and with us it was a
continual strife to see what department
would, at the end of the year, have the
greatest surplus in his fund.
I think the people of Minneapolis are
working against their own interests if
they defeat the home rule charter at the
polls.
BURGLARS THREW FITS
Nearly Scared to Death When Alarm
Worked as Expected.
A burglar alarm frightened away
burglars who entered the Browning
King clothing store early this morning.
So hasty was their exit that not an
article was taken.
A rear window was forced. The
alarm attachment just inside worked
perfectly. The company controlling the
wires at once sent one of its employees
with two messenger boys to the store.
When the party arrived ,the burglars
had disappeared.
It is thought that one man forced the
entrance while another hung around
the alarm office to notify his pall if the
alarm came in.

EFFAGEMEHT OF
.^HISTORIC RUINS
MBS. VAN CLEVE COMMENTS ON
VANDALISM AT FT. SNELLING.
Pioneer Resident of Minnesota Gives In
teresting Reminiscences Concerning
Vine-Covered Tower That Has Been
"Fixed Up" to Look Like a Bail
road Watertank.
"It's unbecoming to modernize
ruins," said Mrs. Charlotte Van Cleve,
as she gazed disapprovingly at the pho
tograph of the neatly cemented round
tower at Fort Snelling, taken after its
recent "renovation." "The old place
would look as unnatural fixed up like
that as an old woman like me would,
dressed like the young people of today,
and attempting to appear like them.
"We are too prone to fixing things
up and trying to make them look like
new in America. We have few enough
historic rums and we do not preserve
what we have, at least not in their orig
inal and interesting state. When a
building has become a rum thru circum
stances and is interesting and signifi
cant as it is, why ican't we be content
to let it remain a ruin. There is
something that stirs the heart, the mind
and the memory in ruins."
As Mrs. Van Cleve looked from the
picture of the tower in 1880 to that of
today she said: "Yes that certamlv
is desecration, and the building in its
modern guise cannot be of enough use
to compensate for the loss of historic
interest. In Europe such a thing would
never have been thought of, but unfor
tunately we have not the same regard
for old things.
I suppose there is no else who re
members Fort Snelling as far back as I
do Mrs. Van Cleve went on remini
scently. "You know I was only a few
weeks old when I arrived at Fort Snell
ing with my family in the summer of
1819. I was born at Prairie du Chien
as my father's regiment was on its way
to the mouth of the Minnesota river, to
build a fort there, and that fort was
afterward called Fort Snelling. These
towers and the old quarters are part of
my earliest recolections. From the old
watchtower on its perch between the
rivers, my brothers and I watched the
smoke of the first steamboat to arrive
at 1ho fort, and I remember very well
how excited we and evervone else were.
I think I could go over every part
of the old fort now. Last time I was
down I did go over the old buildings,
into my father's old quarters, and into
the very room where I remember sleep
ing in a cradle. General Morris, who
was commandant, went around with me,
and he said he found out more about
the fort than he had ever known before.
"That was a very interesting visit,
for I took with me a visitor who had
not seen the place in nearly fourscore
years. He was Andrew Tully, my foster
brother, who was rescued from the In
dians a few vears after the fort was es
tablished. His father and mother had
been murdered and Andrew was given
to my father. When we went east,
rriends took him and kept him, and he
had never revisited our early home until
we were both white-haired old people."
Altho Mrs. Van Cleve's lameness,
caused by a recent injury, keeps her
from getting about much, she retains
all of her active interest in life and en
joys greatly recalling her early days in
Minnesota.

FUR QUALITY.
WANTED THE COSTS PAID
It requires more than simply workmanship to produce a good fur
garment. The experience required to properly select the skins is a matter
of very slow growth, and unless one's experience has been very wide, it
is well to rely upon a brand of established reputation and in any case this
is the safest way. We have been manufacturing fur garments of every
description for men, women and children for twenty-eight years and our
product is of the best.
COUNTRY JUSTICE AND ITS AD-
MINISTRATION CONSIDERED
AND REVERSED I N THE DIS-
TRICT COURT.
The ruling of a country justice, who
administers the law up near Rogers Sid
ing. Hennepin county, was set aside by
Judge Harrison this morning, and Rich
ard Wiggin was exonerated. The case
is an amusing one from which some sage
deductions might be drawn.
cjonie months ago Wiggins was a guegt
at a country dance. A dispute arose
and taking' the part of injured inno
cence, Wiggins deliberately and with
malice aforethought, slapped one of the
country swains. Aroused, the offended
person caused the arrest of his former
friend.
Jonas Weil of this city was called
upon to defend Wiggins. He went to
the countiy, and spent a dav trying the
case before a jury of six men. The
delibeiators were finally discharged,
standing 5 to 1 for acquittal. Believ
ing in country justice the Minneapolis
attorney left his cause to the "justice
of the peace who said: "Well, the de
fendant ought to pay the costs. I wril-
fine him $5 and costs, but if he will pay
the costs I will remit the fine."
This was not to the liking of the. de
fendant or his attorney. An appeal to
the district court was taken, and this
morning on motion of the county attor
ney the case was dismissed.
Three Years and Six Months for Theft

STATUS OF QUOTATIONS
Case Involving Grain Trade Rules Is
Taken Under Advisement.
Judge Elliott has taken under advise
ment the case of F. B. Wood against
the Minneapolis Chamber of Commerce
to prevent that organization from can
celing his membership. The case in
volves a chamber rule prohibiting the
posting of continuous Chicago quota
tions by members of the Minneapolis
exchange. According to the plaintiff,
the Chicago Board of Trade cannot con
trol its quotations to the extent of en
forcing such an agreement affecting
members of another organization. In
this connection evidence was submitted
