mines that have been talked of so much r»

round about Lake of the Woods, which is rich
in numerous metals of value. Mica, garnet,
silver and iron are found in quantities. The
first named is found on ah Island
in the lake, and is of a
superior quality to any that has ever been
found iv American mines. There will be a
large advent of prospectors to the mines this
season, and it is likely from his statement
that before the end of the season Manitoba
will have a Coeur d'Aleue.

STREET SAYINGS.
F. F. Mclver, Superintendent of Brad
street's — During January and February we
always have a lot of failures to report in the
Northwest. Those two months appear to be
specially tough on the shaky concerns, but
the houses that stand until March are pretty
sure to pull through. The let-up commenced
earlier this year than usual. We have had
very few failures to report now for about two
weeks, and the general prospect is good.

Improvements are being made that will
add to tbe attractiveness of the Windsor ho
tel. Tbe office is being enlarged to take in
the space now occupied by the bar, which
will be removed to what is now the reading
room. On the St. Peter side three enor
mous plate glass windows will be set in, one
of them looking directly down Fifth street.

The firm of Colbert, Uill & Co., wholesale
dealers in woodeuware, is closing out its
6tock and going out of business. They com
plain that there is too much competition
from wholesale grocers who deal in woodeu
ware for them to do business at a decent
proiit.

From basement to 'attic in tbe state house
yenterday, on every available table, desk and
Window-sill, scribes, both male and female,
were flinging ink with a vengeance. They
generally prefaced their manuscript with
'"An act, to provide an act, to amend an act,
to enact an act, etc."
There was one defect In the state house
yesterday that was very prominent, and that
was poor ventilation. In the senate and
house galleries the atmosphere was so sur
charged with impurity as to almost warrant
the assertion that it could be sliced with a
knife.

In regard to the silver question discussed

Cattle Killed by Wolves.
Mr. Jacob E. Wilvus of Helena, Mont., a
range owner on tbe Sun river, is in the city
and reports his cattle wintering in fine
shape, the losses being only occasionally an
old hull or a late fall calf. The big gray
wolves are playing havoc. As many as
thirty were seen in a band at the last fall
round up, and they appear to be increasrbg
rather than diminishing in number. Many
calves, while being branded were found
with their tails torn off snd
badly bitten in their bindqusrters
by wolves trying to hamstring them. Mr.
Wilson think* that this accounts for tbe
light calf crop every season in that country,
for there is no telling how many cattle th»«se
ferocious bessts kid. Many hunters would
take delight in killing them for the bounty
money if tbe bounty laws were not as they
ar»*. The hunter to receive the bounty must
take witnesses to the county tressurer.' mske
affidavit that the animal' was killed in the
county. and have the skin with him to show.
If this law wss modified or the hunter was
allowed to gft tbe bounty money from the
county treasurer be was nearest to, the
number of wolves would be smaller.

DISASTROUS FIRE.
The Plow Works at Post Siding Burned.
The Story of the Fire.
At 10:10 last evening as several parties
came out of a meeting in the office of the St.
Paul plow works they discovered smoke
issuing from the upper story of what is
known as the paiut and wood work building,
it being on fire iv about the center, as is
supposed from the explosion of a lamp as
workmen had been laboring there during
the evening. A telephone alarm was sent
in to central fire hall at once from the office
and the watchman also sent in an alarm
from box 2(13, and old engine No. 3, a re
serve temporarily in the bouse of No. 4 while
the latter is undergoing repairs, chemical No.
2 and hook and ladder No. 1 were very
promptly on the ground.
Hose was run out to a cistern about a
block's distance from the warehouse and the
suctiou dropped into the same, when a part
of the engine gave out, added to which it was
found that a pin down In a mau-hole, which
opened a gate from the main pipe of
the water works, was broken and a good deal
of time was lost iv hoisting this gate supply
in consequence, for which trouble no one
was personally responsible for the time be
ing.
THE FIRE
at the time of the arrival of the first engine
had spread from the middle of the paint shop,
which was in the second story, towards
Seventh street with great rapidity and in a
few moments the entire roof was a mass of
rolling tlames, making it so hot
that though the building stood fully
thirty feet back from the roadway it was im
possible to stand anywhere in the street.
With a brisk breeze blowing to the southeast
and no water, the impossibility of saving any
of the buildings soon become
apparent. The removal of iron
and steel, raw and manufactured,
from the long story and a half blacksmith
shop directly cast of the structure and ad
joining was immediately commenced, and
considerable of this stock removed before a
volcanic sheet of flame struck it in about the
center. These two shops were then turned
into a sea of lire from end to end and in a
half hour were a heap of burning debris.
Engine No. 1 had long before been tele
phoned for to take the place of the disabled
steamer, but before it could get over the
three miles in wbich the Seventh street till
aud hill were included, the flames had com
municated to
THE THIRD BUILDING,
two stories and a half, also of wood, used for
a dry bouse, which seemed to give a fresh
impetus to the tire, and made tbe work of
removing the finished wor.; from
the warehouse adjoining; also another
story-and-a-half wooden structure 100 feet
long by 50 feet in width, on account of the
scorching heat a work of <rreat difficulty, and
so much so that a hole had to be cut in the
west side of the building to accomplish it.
As it was, the books of the company and
papers which were in the office were hur
riedly got out while the safe was left inside.
A small connecting roof between the dry
nnd the warehouse led the flames Into the
center of that structure so that at
11.30 when steamer No. 1 was in full
work and two streams thereon, and the water
pipe gate was feeding plenty of water Into
the cistern for its supply from the water
main, it was entirely useless, and by mid
night the four structures were a mass of
ruins.
THE FOUR BUILDINGS
all ablaze at ogee made a fearful display of
what tire can do when unrestrained on an
unprotected jest of wooden structuresf*filled
with inflammables, aud the lurid light was
visible for many miles, aud attracted
a great crowd of people thereto. The street
and vacaat land adjoining were piled with
plows, cultivators, harrows, irou, wood and
steel, and disconnected portions of the
farming machinery In course of manufacture
which had been snatched hastily from the
buildings by scores of willing hands.
At this season of the year these works are
always running at their fullest capacity iv
anticipation of the spring trade, and this was
the fact this year. The buildings were filled
with lumber, steel and iron in the rough and
In process of manufacture, and 200 men
were employed daily, some of them working
also evenings, who are thus thrown out of
employment.
Tnere was
CONSIDERABLE CKITP I<M
on the pirt of the people resident
in that locality, which Is In
the St. Paul fire limits, be
cause, though the water main from the lakes
ran within a few feet of these buildings, there
were no hydrants or fire apparatus there for
the protection of the property in tiiat neigh
borhood. The broken engine and tbe bad
condition of ihe water-works gate which feeds
the cistern were also severely animadverted
upon.
Concerning ihe Company.
TH". BUN.DINOS DESTROYS***.
The buildings destroyed consisted of a
clyster of four structures located at the
Post siding, a stone's throw from Seventh
street and about two miles and a half from
the center of the city. They were plain but
substantial two-story buildings with the ex
ception of the blacksmith shop, whicU was
one-story in height.
The buildings may be described as follows:
The warehouse, 50x100 feet In dimensions,
and used as a store room for seasoned and
finished work. This building was well
stocked. The wood and paint shop, 60x80
feet in size, contained work in process
of completion. The dry shop was about oOxjO
feet in dimensions, and the blacksmith shop,
40X80 feet in size.
FI'.E.-li-nNT U\N INTF.KVIEWF.D.
Mr. (). Lun ii, president of the Plow Works
compsny, was seen by a Globe reporter
while tbe lire was in progress, and in reply
to inquiries said that fortunately tbe corn
pan} had recently shipped a large quantity
of manufactured goods, the loss being con
siderably less on this account than if the fire
bad occurred only a few days ago.
In speaking further with reference to the
stock, he said that quite a large quantity had
been removed after tbe fire had started, and
this was slmost ns good as new. In this con
nection he complimented the men for the
active assistance rendered in removing the
Stock of plows, hsrrows and other farm ma
chinery.
With regard to the loss, he thought the
image on the stock and buildings
would not fall short of $lCo.ooo.divlded as fol
lows: Loss on buildings. $60,0u0; loss on
stock. $-'0,000; loss on machinery, $19,000.
Of this amount there is sn insurance of
$40,000 on the buildings and $20,000 on the
stock.
THE OWNER* AND STOCKHOLDER".
The St. Paul Plow Works were reorganized
three years ago Isst June with the following
officers: President, O. Lunn: vice-president,
11. H. Miller; treasurer. William Dawson;
"secretary. F. C. Mi.icr.
Tbe principal stockholders are Charles H.

Tbe company was reorganized with a cspi
tsl stock of $30,000 working capital, wbicb, of
coarse. d:l not include, the value of the
building or appurtenances, which are owned
by W. B. Dean and two or tiiree others.
Tbe company was doing a good business j
and wss In a prosperous condition since tbe
reorganization.
loss and DCSCBaSCBi
As before ststed tbe total loss Is estimated
st $100,000. of which $«0.000 Is on the
buildings, $20,000 on stock and an eqnal
amount on machinery. On this there is an j
insurance of $60,000. of which $20,000 is ou ,
the stock and buildings, according to Mr. W.
B. Dean.
Of this amount $17,000 is in tbe St. Panl ,
Fire and Marine Insurance agency and poii- '

General Xntes.
Toe south side of Seventh street directly
opposite the plow works is occupied by a
number of stores and dwellings snd at 0M
time during the fire it seemed as If tbe fames
wonli communicate momentarily. Tbe de
partment was kept busily em j. loved in
confining the flames to the burning struc
ture, and tbe firemen are to be commended >
for their success in this direction.
The pyrotechnic display by the burning
structure was grand and beauttf il in the ex
treme, and thousands of citizens «rers at
tracted to the scene of the conflagration.
The buildings were as dry as puuk, and
being tilled with inflammable material they
burned like powder, column on column of
smoke and flames shooting skyward, while
the firmament was obscured by millions of
dancing sparks which presented the appear
ance of molten gold on the dim background
of smoke.
Assistant Chief Jackson had the manage
ment of the lire apparatus and was on the
ground with his worse than useless engine
in remarkably quick time. Had the eugiue
been trustworthy, even with the loss of time
in letting down a man in the man-hole to re
pair the* mischief of a broken pin in the
water-gate, he might have been able to save
the warehouse and office, thoueh it would
pot have been possible for him to have done
anything more, if even that.
There wus no accident, though men at the
hazzard of their lives went into the burning
structures to save what tbey could, and sev
eral times there was a report that some of
them had become smothered in the face of
the roaring torrents of flame.
Chief Black has withiu the presence of a
Globe .representative at tbe meetings
of the fiie commissioners urged better
protection for the plowworks with
machinery and water appliances, saying that
these works were entirely unprotected and
would be destroyed, as they have been, if
fire should get started therein. Last night
he was under the care of a physician at his
home on Selby avenue, surleting from a
severe cold attended with fever.
THE REDISTRICTINGr SCHEME.
Mayor O'Brien Thinks it Will Invalidate the
Assessments of the Board of Public Works.
The following important letter of the mayor
to the council, which was presented last even
ing, will well repay perusal by the citizens of
St. Paul and the Ramsey county delegation :
St. Paul, March 2. — The Honorable the
President and Common Council of the City of
St. Paul, Gentlemen: I herewith inclose
for your information a letter from tbe United
States district attorney relative to tbe con
struction of tbe Robert street bridge, from
which it is evident that the United States
will insist upon the plans being approved by
the war department before the work is al
lowed to proceed. This is required by the
act of congress under which the bridge is to
he constructed and as the plans are not yet
approved, I have not yet signed the contract
for the work, since the letter of the district
attorney, copies of the plans have been sub
mitted to Maj. Mackenzie, United States
engineer in charge here, and he has forwarded
them to Washington with his indorsement
and approval at our request. I think it is
important that the plans should be sent on at
an early day by special messenger to tbe hon
orable the secretary of war for his approval,
as public interest requires the speedy prose
cution of this work, and the contracts can
not be signed until the plans are soapproved .
I respectfully request your action or instruc
tions i i this matter.
I have also to call your attention to the
legislation enacted and that proposed to be
eu acted at the present session of the legisla
ture affecting this city, as some of the pro
posed and pending bills seem to require es
pecial attention, notably a hill introduced by
Mr. Daniels for the redistrictiug of the city.
This bill is so hastily and crudely drawn that its
passage in its present form would imperil the
existence auJ validity of tbe board of
public works and our boardjof education, aud
would in all likelihood invalidate every
assessment made by the board jof public
works for ihe next two years. Neither your
honorable body nor the city attorney was
consulted in relation to it, and until last
Saturday a copy could not be procured. Our
charter is too complicated and voluminous to
he made the subject of such amateur legisla
tion, and a slight examination of this bill
will demonstrate the fact that its passage
would be most disastrous to the more im
portant putlic interests. It is not too much
to say that no amendment to our charter
should be submitted without havimr first been
considered by your houorable body and the
law department of the city, and an attempt
of the character alluded to cannot be too
strongly condemned. Respectfully submit
ted. C. D. O'Brien, Mayor.

Polo at St. Peter.
The Mankato Polo club went to St. Petet
Saturday evening to play the team of that
city, and returned next morning. The St.
Peter club was re-enforced by several players
from Kasota, Le Sueur and Shakopee, and
presented a good team, but notwithstanding
this, the boys from Mankato defeated tbe St.

Hoard of Trade.
A special meeting of the board of trade
was held Monday morning in the council
chambers to take action in relation to the com
ing meeting of the board of county commis
sioners and the new court house project. The
matter was discussed, and a committee con
sisting of S. Lamm, J. N. Hall, G. M. Pal
mer, J. C. Noe, J. C. Wise, F. S. Wetters,
and M. G. Willard was appointed to confer
with the county commissioners in regard to
the matter. The legislature has passed an
act permitting the county commissioners to
issue bonds, and it is probable that that body
will submit the matter to a vote of the
electors of the county at an early date. This
is what the board of trade and citizens of
Mankato desire should be done, and if it ia
the sentiment of the voters, have the new
building erected.
