'1 Clear weather is general this morning, except on the South Carolina and Florida coast, in western Texas, New Mexico, and on the middle and north Pacific coast. The rains which fell yesterday or last night in the south Atlantic states are being followed by clearing and decidedly cooler weather with the advance of the 1 high pressure area as it extends slowly eastward from the middle Mississippi val ley. The relative positions of the "high" over the middle Mississippi valley and the moderate "low" over the region about Lake Winnipeg and north of Lake Su perior are causing southerly winds and milder temperatures over most of the northern half of the country, except in Manitoba, where for local reasons it Is somewhat cooler, and it is expected that fair weather and moderate temperatures will continue tonight and Sunday.

SPEAKS TO CHILDREN iArchdeacon Webber Has an Interested Audience at Oethsemane. Archdeacon Webber of the Episcopal Church spoke to 300 children at 9 a.m. today in Gethsemane church. The children were of the Gethsemane^ All Saints and St. Mark's church parishes. The meeting lasted thiee quarters of an hour and was held ih the main auditor ium of the church which was half-filled with boys and girls of all ages. Archdeacon Webber, in his address, held up to the gaze of the children some orange blossoms, then an orange. He spoke of the flowers as being the blos soms of promise the orange as the ful fillment of that promise. The orange trees filled with blossoms was indeed a thin'g of beauty, but were only demon strations of the promise of fruit that might come after. The archdeacon then spoke of children as being the promises of rich manhood and woman hood. The children are the flowers, but not the fruit. The test of the value of the youthful blossoms is the fulfillment of their Christian duty as they develop to maturity. The children were deeply interested thruout the address an'd gave strict at tention to the story of the speaker, which was told with a fascination for the young hearers.

OAR A' FIGHTING CONDUCTOR PRE VENTS THEM FROM BOARDING. Detective, After Strenuous Gumshoe Work, Finally Unearths a New Form of Initiation in Which Varsity Neo phytes Are Masked and Sent Qut to Terrify the Populace. Passengers on a Monroe and Lyndale car were thrown into a panic at Lyn dale avenue and Twenty-sixth street last night, when three masked men stopped the car and commanded the conductor to stand aside and let them, have things their own way. While the passengers crowded to the forward end of the car, the conductor dtood at his post and fought the sup- fhem iosed bandits fiercely, finally putting to rout. The masked men were roughly dressed, wearing slouch hats and badly worn coats, and the lower portion of their faces were covered with black mufflers. In spite of their boyish appearance, both the conductor and motorman thought there was a real attempt to hold up the car, and they decided to die game. The young terrorists were neophytes going thru the regular initiation of a university fraternity, but they forgot to explain this to the conductor, and they immediately became the target for some well-directed blows and kicks that caused a confused retreat. When they were once off the car, the motorman, who stood in the door or the front vestibule ready to get in the game, was ordered to start up and the gates were closed in the faces of the initiates. One of them, angered at what he thought was a studied insult, ran after the car holding on to the gates and threatening the conductor with annihilation if he did not stop. The run, however, soon exhausted him and he was compelled to wait for his friends and walk home. The neophytes are trying to keep the matter quiet, but a detective detailed to catch the bandits last night, struck the right clue and the bandits are the victims of much jocularity on the campus today. MRS. BRENNAN NOT AWARE OF VERDICT Mrs, Stella Brennan, whom the coro ner's jury has accused of murdering her three stepchildren, has not been in formed of the verdict, altho she knows that she is accused of the crime by the police. She is improving rapidly at the city hospital, but Dr. E. H. Beckman has de cided to keep the news of the verdict* from her until she is strong enough to hear it without danger of a relapse. She has been questioned daily by the detectives, but she still sticks to her story of the short, sallow man who stood over her bed and shot her. She has asked no questions of the officers and confines her conversation entirely to answering their questions. Often she considers her answers several minutes before giving it and so far has made no damaging adinissions. James Brennan, her husband, visited her at the hospital yesterday and as sured her that he did not believe her guilty. There seems to have been a complete reconciliation since the murder of the children1, and Mrs Brennan ap peared much better after her husband's visit. She will probably be brought next Monday to the county or city 3ail, where she will await the action of the grand jury. Hereafter no one will be allowed to talk to her except in the presence of officers. WILL GO TO ST. PETER FOSTER & WALDO 36 5th Street South, Cor. Nicollet Ave. k, -Jj?"

Petitions for permission to set more than fifty polelines were presented to the council last evening by the North western Telephone company. Practical ly all of these new lines are in North Minneapolis streets and alleys, in the district between Plymouth and Twenty fifth avenues N. This wholesale work laid out in that part of the city is taken to indicate that the company is apprehensive of a determined move ment to compel the burial of overhead wires, which was inaugurated by Mayor David P. Jones some time ago. How ever, the company is about to establish a telephone exchange in North Min neapolis, and the additional polelines may be necessary for the change in the service. The matter will be fully discussed before the permission for the poles is granted. Alderman G. A. Westphal and an in dignant citizen today stopped the work on the new poleline on Franklin ave nue. The pole-raising gang had got ten as far as Twenty-fourth avenue S and was setting a pole in front of the property of A. H. Edsten, when the latter interfered. Instead of being set on the curbline, the hole was being dug eighteen inches inside, far in on the stone sidewalk, which would be considerably damaged. While the row was in progress Mr. Westphal happened by and immediately took a hand. The work was stopped and assurance was given that the poles would follow the curbline for the remainder of the dis tance. Mr. Westphal will endeavor to force the company to reset the poles wher ever they are out of place and to re pair the damages to sidewalks. He will also prepare an ordinance provid ing that no permit for the erection of polelines shall be of effect unless ap proved by the aldermen of the respec tive wards in which the proposed lines are located. In order to guard against illegal encroachments by the electric companies, it will also be provided that the setting of poles shall be supervised by the ward street commissioners.

Affidavits were presented from jurors, stating that their minds were in fluenced by newspaper articles, which contained charges not contained in the evidence. The "Doll Theater" at LycetfriHs fine.

Bankers DiscusaAdvisability,of Advance in Rates, But No Action Has As Yet Been Determined UponMoney Harder on Legitimate Conditions Having Effect Generally Turnout Country. First reflection of the New York money flurry was shown in Minneapo lis today, when bankers began to dis cuss athe advisabilityof an advance in rates. It was reported in financial circles that all Minneapolis banks would on Monday put a flat 6 per cent rate into effect for grain paper, but this was not fully confirmed. Rates were as low as 4% per cent early in the season, and have been 5 per cent recently with 5^4 occasion ally heard. At the Security bank it was stated that no concerted action on the part of the banks was contemplated. Money is harder on legitimate condi tions, which are having effect generally thru the country. C. T. Jaffrey, vice president of the First National bank, said: "Rates are 5*@6 per cent. This is higher than recent figures. It is re sponsive to general demand. There is a strong market, but nothing to indi cate extreme rates." E. W. Decker of the Northwestern National bank, said, "Six per cent is the maximum rate for large loans. I know of nothing to cause apprehension of a further mate rial advance, for the present at least. The money market is hardening all over the country, and the effect here has been moderate." At the Chamber of Commerce hard ening money is usually an argument against advancing prices in grain, altho it does not always work for decline. Grain stocks in the northwest, in coun try storage, are probably heavier at present than at any corresponding time in northwest history, and as most of the grain represent money borrowed at Minneapolis, the financial center, ad vancing rates would in theory, induce the turning into cash of more or less of the collateral. This year, however, the situation is a little out the or dinary. Most of the grain in the coun try has been sold against in the futures markets. The car shortage also makes it diffi cult to move the grain in promptly, and sellers of grain "'to arrive" in Min neapolis have to be sure that they can get the cars to land the stuff here with in a twenty-day time limit. Conserva tive men in the grain trade feel that the recent severe declines in wheat represent in part anticipation of higher interest rates, and that in this respect the effect of an advance may have been discounted. BANK RESERVES LIGHT New York and Washington Money Mar ket Situation. New York, Nov. 11.The New York clearing house banks hold $2,428,800 less cash than the legal requirement of 25 per cent of deposits. This is exclu sive of government deposits on which the government has decided it is not necessary to hold reserve. Counting in government deposits the cash hold ings are $294,800 less than the legal reserve. Washington, Noy. ^LMr. Ridgeley, controller of the currency, being shown the New York bank statement today stating that the reserve was below the legal requirements, said that the state ment is one made to the clearing house, and is entirely unofficial. He has no knowledge of it except that which comes thru the newspapers. The fact that the reserve of a na tional bank is below the legal require ment is nothing very unusual he said, as it is frequent that banks are found below the legal requirement when called upon for their statement of condition, or examined by a national bank exam iner. A bank is not required to sus pend payment for the purpose of main taining the legal reserve. The only use of any reserve is to have money on hand to pay depositors when it is called for. When, however, the reserve falls below a certain amount the law pro vides that the bank shall not make any further loans until the reserve is made good. When the controller's office is officially notified either by a statement of condition or by a bank examiner that its reserve is below the required limit, a bank is notified that its re serve must be made good within thirty days and the controller notified when this is done. THIRD INTERURBAN TO BE BEADY BY JANUARY By the beginning of 1906, Minneapo lis will in all probability have another interurban trolley line connecting it with St. Paul. Severe cold weather may interfere with the steel construc tion work now being placed in the wid ening and strengthening of the Lake stret bridbe over the Mississippi, but all else is ready. The street railway company is ex tending its tracks on Lake street from Wonderland park to the river, to be ready to connect up as soon as the bridge work is completed. The Mer riam Park line was extended down Mar shall avenue to the river on the St. Paul side early in the spring, and is now in operation to the Town and Country club property on the river bank. The exact routing of the new inter urban has not been decided upon. It may be simply a combination of the present Lake street crosstown line and the Merriam Park line, with transfer privileges to intersecting lines, or it may run into the center of the city over some of these lines and depend on the Lake street line for further dis tribution to the west side district. Dur ing the summer season cars will run direct from St. Paul to Harriet and Minnetonka. ON NEW INDICTMENT Dr. Theron H. Bly Is Arraigned Before Judge Dickinson. Dr. Theron H. Bly was arraigned on a new indictment yesterday before Judge H. D. Dickinson. The new bill differs from the one on which the doc tor was tried last term in that it does not specify whether the alleged crim inal operation was performed by an instrument or "by drugs. The defendant will be tried early this term. Hazel Eastman and lorence Campbell pleaded guilty to an indictment char ging them with shoplifting. Each wfcs sentenced to ninety days in the work house. Henry Day pleaded not guilty to a true bill charging him with robbing a Scott county farmer of $15. Their gentle action and good effect on the system really make them a per fect little pill.

CLEMENT MOTION ARGUED FARIBAULT BANKER'S ATTOR- NEYS WANT ARREST OF JUDG- MENT AND A NEW TRIAL. Thomas B. Clement, president of the defunct First National bank of Fari bault, was in the federal court at St. Paul yesterday afternoon, while his lawyers argued a motion for an arrest of judgment and a new trial. The de fendant has been convicted of misap propriating the bank's funds, of mak ing^ false entries in the books and of malting false reports to the controller of the currency. Clement's attorneys argued yester day that the trial court erred in not granting the continuance asked for by the defendant on the ground of poor health, that the grand and petit juries were not legally constituted, and t&t there were several errors in the trtal of the case. It was contended that Mr. Clement was so feeble during his trial that he was unable to confer with his attorneys or render them any assistance in pre senting his defense. Affidavits of sev eral physicians, including those of Dr. Henry Hutchinson of St. Paul and Dr. Robilliard of Faribault, were introduced to prove the defendant's feebleness. An affidavit of the defendant was in troduced stating that had he been in more robust health he would have tak en the witness-stand in his own de fense, would have contradicted some of the evidence, modified some and ex plained some. The attack on the legality of the ju ries was based upon the assertion that, according to law, the ,-jurors should have been chosen from resident-of the third district in which the trial was held, and not from different districts as they were. The motion was taken under advise ment. A Good Gamble. With your next order for groceries, include a bottle each of Higgins' White Label Brand of extract or vanilla and lemon.

A war of words is being waged be tween Judge F. C. Brooks and Judge H. D. Dickinson over the latter's charge' to the November grand jury. Today Judge Dickinson asserted that he did not criticise the September jurors but, on the contrary, commended them gen erally, simply statiWg that they had made a lamentable mistake in publish ing names of those indicted in advance of the issuance of warrants for their arrest. Judge Brooks, when shown Judge Dickinson's statement, said that he wished to defeWd his grand jury, but not to justify or sanction any mistake on its' part. He commented upon Judge Dickinson's statement, in his charge, that certain acts of the Sep tember jury were a gross violation of law and trie persons to blame for it should be made to suffer." He said that this4 was accusing persons without gv iving tHem a chance to be heard, and making that statement he inconsist ently did just what he cautioned his grand jury not to do.

The state free employment bureau has an order for attendants to work at the state school for feeble-minded, at Faribault. The order was placed by Dr. A. C.

They need not have previous 'experience as nurses, tho experience is an advan tag. The wages are $40 a month with board and wasning. The state institutions have a great deal of trouble in getting competent em ployees, but this is the first time one has appealed to the employment bureau.

It shows that a correctly organized and properly managed life insurance company will be marked by the following four essential featuresand It shows why this is so. FIRSTThe legal reserve old line basisno element of as- sessmentiam, or the "preliminary term" or any other device for avoiding liability and increasing expenses. SECONDAbsolute mutuality with proper limitations on the use of proxies, the assets owned by the policy holders, not by stockholders. THIRDAnnual distribution of surplus or dividends, and the amount thereof a definite liability until paid. Treating de- ferred dividends as "surplus" subject to expense demands is the cause of nearly all the few prominent defects in American life insurance management. FOURTHManagement strictly confined to the company's officers acting in their responsible official capacity. A "side" company sharing in the management and investments of a life insurance company offers too great opportunities for irresponsi bility, to say the least.

Now that the Hennepin County Bar association, the Humane society and the Associated Charities, all private institu tions, have been provided with perma nent quarters in the courthouse and city hall free of expense, even for heating and lighting, the Hennepin County Med ical society wants a similar privilege. It raises the point that the G. A. R. organizations, not being public bodies, are to be provided with handsome quar ters in the interior court and that va rious organizations are given more or less privileges about the building from time to time. The argument is made that the medical society accomplishes much good in a public way, and is en titled to fully as much public support as any of the others. The society has expressed a preference for the room originally set apart for the municipal art commission, but which is never used. This request was before the municipal building commission at a meeting held yesterday. Assurance was given that the society would be given quarters for its library and a possibly museum and and its monthly meeting* as soon as the health department moved to the fourth floor, when the first floor would be reapportioned. Adjutant-General F. B. Wood has se lected a new article of equipment for the national guard, which will be used at the encampment next summer. It is called: a bandelier, and is in shape of a belt tq sling over the shoulder by straps. Ontf holds sixty cartridges, and two or three can be carried at one*.
