MATTERS IN MINNEAPOLIS. The Most Shocking Divorce Suit Ever Brought in the Courts of the Flour City. . Some of the Saloonkeepers Pay the $1,090, -Some Hold Back and Others Quit the Business. The Retail Liquor Dealer's Association Advises Venders of Liquors to Hold Off a Few Days. A Big Real Estate Deal-A Girl Cowboy— A Discharged Salesman With a Key. THE WORST OX RECORD. A Divorce Complaint That Ex hibits Depravity Unspeakable. The papers in what promises to be one of the most sensational cases ever heard in Hennepin county were filed yesterday, and if the . allegations set forth in the complaint be true there is material in it few one of the most thrill ing dramas ever written. But whether the moral tone would suit the public is another matter. The case is an action in divorce brought by John Krebs, a young man of twenty-three, against Laura Krebs, aged eighteen. Young Krebs is employed at the glass works, his father having an inter est in the business, and is con sidered by his friends as a fortunate in dividual, as his father is worth consid erable money and other property"* The story he tells in his complaint is horri ble 'and wonderful, and portrays in glowing colors- to What depths human depravity can descend, lie says that he married Laura in this city Dec. 20, 1880, and lived with her until April 19, 188", when a peculiar colored child was born to her. After this statement the complaint grows decidedly inter esting,, and in substance is as follows. He first met the girl who is now Mrs. Krebs during the summer of 1860, and the two became very much attached to each other. At least Krebs became infatuated with the girl, and the two grew decidedly in timate. The morning of Dec. 20, when Krebs was visiting the girl, she sent for one O'Ganne to come to the house. He came and after a consultation with Laura called John aside and informed him that the girl was in a delicate con dition, and demanded that he pay her a large sum of money or many her. Laura then came to him and corroborated' O'Ganne's state ment that she was in trouble, and told John that the best thing he could do would be to marry her or else give her a large amount of money. Later in the day a man named Homer approached him, and after a short talk said that lie (John) must either marry the girl, pay her $5,000, or be arrested for bastardy. Krebs refused to do any of these things, and asked for time in which to consider the matter. This was denied him, and in the evening he was taken by Homer and a man whom he did not know to the office of George S. Grimes, a justice of the peace. Here Homer produced a marriage license which he claimed Laura had procured. After threats of arrest and exposure Kribs, who says he was inexperienced in the ways of women and the world, consented to have the ceremony per formed, as he supposed he had really wronged the girl and wanted to make amends to the best of his ability. He now alleges that before reaching Grimes' office, being nearly crazy from trouble, he took several big drinks of liquor, which made him drunk and in capable of entering into a marriage contract. He admits that some sort, of a ceremony was performed at the office, but denies that he knew it was the marriage ceremony. Up to April 19, when the baby was born,he supposed that he was the father »f it, as he had been intimate with her on Oct. 10, 1880, and Laura had assured him time and lime again that she had never done wrong with any one except him. But when the child, a well-devel oped, ten-pound infant, was born lie knew that its paternity could not be laid at his door. So, after a stormy scene, he left his wife and her child, boon after Krebs married Laura she said she wanted to board, and he let her pick out her own place. He came home but once or twice a week, as he was working at the glass works, a long dis tance from the boarding house his wife had selected. After one or two visits to the house he found that the place was really a resort for lewd women— a house of prostitution. Thinking that his wife had simply made a mistake in regard to the character of the place, he took her to the home of his sister, where she re mained until her baby was born. As soon as Krebs found that he was not the father, of the child his wife had given birth to and left her, she placed the baby in the foundlings' home and went so Stillwater, where, lie alleges, she lias been living in adulterous intercourse with Homer, O'Ganne, one Fitzgerald and a half breed Indian. He also charges that prior to her marriage she was a common prostitute. In closing his complaint Krebs charges that O'Ganne and Homer entered into a conspiracy to compel him to marry the girl or else bleed him for several thousand dollars, as they knew his father was rich and would spend a good deal of money to save him and tlie family from disgrace. O'Ganne is a gambler, he says, and Homer a man of bad repute, who is even now living under an assumed name, H. M. Fanquer being his true name, or rather the name he gave in procuring the marriage license, for it was he who procured it. Both O'Ganne and Homer had, lie says, been intimate with the girl, and it was one of them who was the father of her child. When they saw she was in a delicate condition they sought to throw the blame on some one else and secure a rich reward for themselves at the same time. Krebs asks that lie be granted a complete divorce, and that the child be declared Dot his. SOME HAVE PAID. The High License Went in Figu- rative Effect Yesterday. The "-1,000 retail liquor license went into effect yesterday figuratively, but not practically. As a matter of fact not a saloon in the city has a license to sell and will not have until, the 7th inst:, owing to the failure to publish applica tions two weeks previous. The notice is issued by the license inpector in accordance with instructions from the police com mission to the effect that the saloon keepers should pay their money over to the city treasurer,* to be held "by him until licenses can be legally issued, was heeded by only forty-six dispensers of •liquid refreshments. The balance evi dently think they might as well keep their money as to band it over to the treasurer. The Retail Liquor Dealers' association, met in the after noon and the members agreed that they would not pay over their money until they can get a license. The following are those" who paid £1,000 each ovt r to the city treasurer yesterday and re ceived personal receipt for the same: Twombly & Moore, William S. Shehan, Adolph Eisler, J. L. lIodj;e, I*.

There was any amount of kicking among the saloonkeepers yesterday, although most of them submitted with as good grace, as possible. . Few saloons were closed, as many who do not expect to take out licenses have put in applications for* them. Jule Mayer pulled down the curtains and turned the key ip the Elite,- and the saloon of Thomas Cox on First avenue closed its doors, and there are a few in the side streets who are no longer at home to visitors. . • A GIRL. COWBOY. A Woman Who Has Only One' Dress — A Strange Creature. She had on a pair of pants which bagged at the knees, blue sailor shirt and a pair of suspenders completed her costume. Her tanned face was mascu line in its expression and her thick, coarse hair was cut closely, a la pompa dour, leaving a ridge. stood up straight, giving her a startled-' appear ance. A man's straw hat, which she carried, was the remaining article of her apparel. Capt. Bill "Bos worth;* of the East side station,-:' led this rare captive forwar and explained, "She's been herding cattle on the East side, and Bonis Arneaux, a farmer, complained against her. I went out; to get her, when she made for her pony, but I got her before she could mount." - . "Annie Linstrom, charged .with masquerading in male 'attire," called out a consumptive clerk whose head was just visible above the box in which he stood. U"" r -••'.' --'\'i:-;%.- -.'"-.. , y Then the creature, who ?w»6 /appar ently twenty-five years old and weighed about 150 pounds, opened her mouth and her voice - betrayed ; . her sex for the first time. "Judge," she said, "I wear men's clothes when; herding so as to get around. '•'. If I wore women's clothes I'd be bothered all the' time. I never go oh the streets without a dress, but I diet this time, because the only dress I've got was in North Minneapo lis." Judge Mahoney, t who remembered the time when it took half the police of the South Minneapolis station to arrest An nie upon a previous occasion when she was drunk, said, sharply, "This is the second time you have been here for this offense. You must wear the garments of your sex or be punished. Your sen tence is twenty days at the workhouse." DISTRICT COURT NOTES. William Deering has begun an action against Albert A. Morrill to recover $235 on a promissory note. The suit of the Cedar Falls Paper company against A. M. Pratt & Co. to recover .400 for a carload of paper, was tried yesterday by Judge Ilea. The case of W. B. Clark against J. S. Gillespie et al.. to recover on promis sory notes, was decided yesterday, when a verdict in favor of the plaintiff for $5,262.22 was returned. John C. Sterling et al. are made de fendants in an action begun by Steven Lamm to recover $1,000 on a note and to set aside a deed to land made over to Vernal Truesdall in order, it is alleged, to escape paying the note. Marriage licenses were issued yester day to Jacob A. Swanson and Sophia Olson. C. H. Peterson and Christina Anderson, C. H. Stohlton and Sophia C. Anderson, Andre Engelson and Julia Johnson, John Anderson and Christine Peterson, Theodore C. Snyder and Phebe A. Phillips. Herbert Damon and Katie Flynn, Elijah S. West and Maria A. Fairchild. A Heavy Land Sale. The report of the sale of the Oswald farm, noted in last Sunday's Globe was confirmed yesterday. As then stated the sale was made by Jordan and Blaisdell at $4,000 per acre. The plat consisted of 108 acres, instead of over 160. It lies along the north side of Su perior avenue just beyond the Minneap olis & St. Louis tracks. The pur chaser is a Philadelphia syndicate and it is proposed to plat out the piece in lots and put them on. the market at an early day. The transaction is one of. the largest ever made in this city. Somewhat Sensational. The somewhat sensational divorce suit of Mrs. Annette Colburn against Charles J. Colburn, proprietor of the Nicollet avenue hair store, was taken up before Judge Hicks yesterday after noon. Mrs. Coleman in her complaint alleges that her husband was unduly intimate with some of the girls in the store and that he treated her in a cruel and inhuman manner. She was on the . stand yesterday, and told her story with considerable reluctance. Mr. Col burn sat on the opposite side of the table but made no sign of feeling un comfortable. The case will be con cluded to-day. \ ': * .•, .; \\~ \ . •". Meat Condemned. Some idea of the quantity of bad milk, meat, fish and poultry which finds its way into the Minneapolis market, may be obtained from the quantity the meat inspector condemned in one month. Inspector Mea's report for June shows he condemned the follow ing: Fresh beef, 6,400 lbs. fresh pork, 4,727 lbs.; mutton, 943 lbs.; veal and calves, 8,496 lbs.; corn beef, 4,883 lbs.; salt pork, 1,194 lbs. ; hams and bacons, 176 lbs.; poultry, SO4 lbs.; chickens, alive, 147; sausage, 468 lbs.; fresh fish, 414 lbs.; milk. 1.013 gallons. The Lake Park Opened. The Lake park was formally opened last evening by a full dress party, held in the pavilion, which was handsomely decorated with Chinese lanterns and umbrellas of many and curious designs, tastefully placed around the walls and hanging from the ceiling. Many guests were present from Hotel Lafay ette and other points around the lake. The dancing programme consisted of ten numbers. Music was furnished by Frank Danz's full string band. There were about 500 in attendance. Ante-Fourth of July. Jane Peterson, a dressmaker at 240 Eighth avenue south, was before the court upon the charge of assaulting a son of Baptiste Dore. She explained that the boy and another patriotic com panion came into her hallway with the intention of holding a Fourth of July celebration. They wouldn't go out, so site smote the youthful Dore with the soft end of a broom. Judge Mahoney, after listening to these exciting details with breathless interest, discharged the dressmaker. Retained the Key. Inspector Fairburn last night arrested Eugene B. droo for the theft of nu merous articles from the agency of the I.ovell Manufacturing company at 407 Fifth avenue south. \Valdron was re cently employed as salesman by the company and" retained a key after his discharge, with which he has been able to enter the store at night and crary off goods. ALL SORTS. There was a smile in the council yes terday when the protests of Messrs. Jordan and Penny against paying salary to Judges Bailey anil Mahoney were read and promptly referred to the com mittee on cemeteries. Young men cannot shake dice for money. That is gambling. - They must go anil pick out the favorite ..in a home race or the combination in base ball. That is merely betting. The grocers want to reserve the beer selling privilege at their picnic. That seems a little singular. If it were the druggists, now. . , The California billiard phenomenon played a very clever game at the Press club room, as graphically portrayed by the Journal. The cleverest part of it was that he did not play, and with this trilling exception, the Journal article is correct. It looks as though with the rivalry be tween the police force and the mer chants night watch, part of the city, at least, will be well protected. Our nine young athletes have won a game at last from Duluth. They will now be welcomed on their return by the plaudits of an admiring throng. The races, the park commission and the ball game will al! occur this after noon, Some arrangements should' be made . by which:; these public amuse ments could be distributed and not all occur at one time. ■ Additional Minneapolis News on the Seventh Page. yy THE* -SAINT PAUL DAILY GLOBE: ' SATURDAY : MORNING, JULY 2, 1887 i HOT AFTER THE 808-TAILS A Pair of Thrilling Resolutions to Show That the Council is Master of the Situation. A Special Committee. Will Report Whether the Company or Council is On Top. Under the New Regime, the Saloons Pay * High and Can Run All s Night Long. The Fight Oyer Lighting the City- Building Inspector's Report General Council Matters. Aid. Mills offered two sets of resolu tions in council yesterday referring to the street railway company that created quite a breeze. The first one declares that the council is master of the situa tion and has the authority to regu late the street car service. It proceeds to say that as the company has declared the council has no right to insist on one fare for a ride, except on a continuous line, that the following be declared continuous lines: From the suspension bridge along Hennepin ave nue to Washington, thence to First ave nue south, thence to Thirteenth street, thence to Nicollet avenue, thence to Lake Harriet or Minnehaha Falls; sus pension bridge along Hennepin to Wash ington, to First avenue south, to Sixth street, to Fourth avenue south, to Washington avenue, to Eighth av enue south, to Seventh street, and thence down Seventh or out Eighth av enue as the passenger may elect; or, any line along said railway track by which a passenger can go to any portion of the city, so long as the same line is not used twice, any two points on the motor line, not distant over three miles. And the fare is to be 5 cents for a single ride over any of the continuous lines so designated. The resolution concludes with a request to the public to deposit no fares iuifexes or inclined planes and if the company does not furnish trans fer tickets, to transfer themselves and let the company bear the brunt. The other resolution calls tor the ap pointment of a special committee of five to ascertain the rights of the city at the hands of the street railway company, in so far as they are not subordinate to the power of said company; and the com mittee is especially instructed to furnish information on the following thirteen points: Whether the company ever had an exclusive franchise, and if so, whether it covered more territory than the city con tained. Second— Whether the extension of the city extended the company's rights, and if so,did it extend its liabilities! Third— the franchise give the company any rights outside of the former city limits? Fourth— council cam regulate the company's lines outside of the former limits, exclusive of said franchise. Fifth— Whether the trucks are planked, as provided by the ordinance franchise. Whether the tracks are laid as pro vided by the ordinance contract. Seventh— Whether a sufficient number of cars is provided, as required. Eighth— cars propelled by other than horse power turn corners at a greater rate of speed than six miles an hour. Ninth— Whether cars, coupled or un coupled, going in the same direction, are al lowed neater than '200 feet to one another. Whether cars are stopped on any crossing or street intersection. Eleventh— With what provisions the com- pany hns complied. Twelfth— what provisions has it not complied. Thirteenth— Such other matters as may be of interest to the public, including a list of proposed lines aud extensions as are "de manded by public necessity," including con tinuous lines which will enable our people to pass to and from any two points of the city without the inconvenience of transfer, and especially between their homes and the vari ous lakes, parks and parkways, as -well as Minnehaha Falls, Shingle creek, Germania Park and other popular resorts, to the end that said company may be required to build and operate such lines or waive its alleged exclusive right so to do. This was adopted, and the following committee appointed: Mills, Garvey, Hanscom, Vogt and Phillips, who will consider both. OTIIEn BUSINESS. Council got into its first snarl, yester day, over the propositton to pay $21.06 to Dr. Horan, as sidewalk inspector, for keeping a horse. Practical experience taught Aid. Downs one-half that sum was all that was necessary, but his mo tion to reduce one-half was defeated and the full amount allowed. The regular budget of bills, aggregating $234,412.47, was allowed and ordered paid. It was hoped the council would escape the impending gas light war, but the first thing under unfinished business brought it up and the fun began. Aid. Gibson had several burners on hand and explained their merits and demerits in a plea for the pattern of the Sun Vapor company. Other aldermen were for the Wheeler reflector and still others for the Globe light. After a half hour's wrangle, it was partially agreed to di vide favors and the Wheeler company was cut down from 1,000 to 500. But be fore any further progress could be made the affair became so snarled that it was referred to the committee to be straight ened out and council adjourned. THE H. & D. TRACKS. Two Propositions to Lower Them— What it AVould Cost, Negotiations are still pending looking to the lowering of the tracks of the Hastings & Dakota road and bridging at the several street crossings. The Milwaukee company has submitted a proposition, to which the railroad com mittee of the council has submitted an amendment, where the matter rests. The railway company proposes to de vide the total expense with the city in such way thai the city's proportion shall be to the company's portion as 21 to 10: and the committee proposes the company shall pay all of the grading and shall reduce the cut so as to leave about eighteen feet of head room between the surface of the rails and the bottom of the bridges. It is estimated that to make the cut for the ordinary thirty foot-roadway will require the re moval of 400,000 cubic yards of earth, and will cost about $100,000. To make the cuts for side-tracks, etc., will cost some $30,000. Under the proposi tion, the city's share of this cost will be about $50,000. About forty bridges will lie required, and City Engineer Rinker is of the opinion they could be suitably constructed for an average of $0,000. This would make the total cost of the proposed improvement, from Fort ave nue to a point 1,600 feet west of Henne pin avenue, about $500,000. There is a decided public sentiment in favor of this improvement, which, however expensive it may be, is sure to come at some time. St. Paul has paid nearly that sum for a bridge, and this is of universally greater importance than a single bridge. The bulk of the Eighth ward and all of the Twelfth and Thir teenth wards lie outside of these tracks, and there is an urgent demand for the lowering of the grade. THE LICENSE ORDINANCE. A Claim of Illegality— Changes It "Will Make. Council yesterday tackled the license ordinance, the machinery putting in operation the high license law. The ordinance follows the prescribed form, and went slowly through until the amount was reached. Aid. Cloutier wanted the sum of $1,000 stricken out, ami the words "minimum amount allowed by law" inserted. Aid. Dwyer moved to insert $10,000, and accompanied it with a speech. He was opposed to high license, he. said, and as $10,000 would be practical- prohibition, he : pre ferred it to high license. The latter was designed to shut out the ; poor men and give the rich a monopoly $10,000 license would shut them all out and treat them . all alike. Both , amendments were lost, i and the ordinance . was ; read ' through. ' About the only. change from : the old ordinance is the change of hours.; Here-, tofore the saloons were required to close at midnight, but now may remain open all night. - When the ordinance was put upon * its passage, to : the ' surprise :of • many," it was ' lost by a vote of 14 to 18.' Aid. Mills moved a reconsideration : and it was carried by a vote of 16 to 15, , but Aid. Downs' raised the point that as a less number was present, a reconsidera tion could not be had, Aid. ; Coolley hav ing left the chamber in the r meantime. The chair ruled that at the same meet ing, when a member leaves without per mission, his absence should not affect the result, and the reconsideration- was carried. The ordinence was then passed by the following vote: • '';'. ' Barrows, dough, Cloutier. Erwin;; Garrey, Gibson,- Gleason, Hanscom, L'Her-,. ault, Morse, Muldoon, Noerenberg, Oswald' Phillips.

The addition of 25 per cent, above is caused by the fact that since the fee system went into operation the esti mated cost of buildings has been greatly reduced." ___ WILL HAVE THE HOSPITAL. The Council, After a Sharp Fight, Establishes It. The matter of establishing a city hos pital at the house of the Sisters of Mercy caused a long-winded argument in council. The special committee re ported in its favor and offered a resolu tion directing the committees on health and hospitals to at once prepare it. Aid. Downs did not believe in haste in this question and questioned the sufficient size of the proposed building: in re sponse to which Aid. Gibson submitted figures to show the contrary. Aid. Coolley wanted the Northwestern hos pital designated as an annex, to be used exclusively for women and children. , Aid. McArdle wanted the proviso in serted that no more than regular rates should be charged. An acrimonious discussion ensued, in which Aid. Clark charged the pro-hospital members with getting up a scheme for their personal benefit; and Aid. L'Herault retorted the opptjition was in a scheme to prevent the cheap service of a hospital for some personal end. The amendments were voted down and the discussion resumed. Aid. Clough favored the plan as some thing this city had long needed. When the final vote was had there were but three yeas. The parliamentary clinch was put on by tabling a motion to recon sider, and the matter was definitely set tled. ________ yy MINNEAPOLIS GLOBULES. Two cases of diphtheria were reported yes terday. The Murphy club will elect officers this evening. 'Mpi«p_ Bank clearances yesterday amounted to $588,039.64. A plat of Sheldon's addition to Excelsior was filed yesterday.

Forman & Parker yesterday took out a building permit for a carriage repository on First avenue south, between Sixth and Sev enth streets, to cost $15,000. Jacob Barge has received a telegram from the secretary of the Northwestern saenger bund, now in session in Freeport, 111., stating that the sangerfest will be held in Minneapo lis! in two years. - Inspectors Lawrence and Kinney last night arrested two notorious sneak thieves, Tommy Donovan and Eddie Wilson, who are sus pected of committing the recent burglaries. The sale of stamps at the postoffice for the quarter ending June 30 amounted to $63, --105.07, an increase of $11,283.18 over the same period last year. Who says Minneapo lis is not growing? The park 'commissioners are being roundly denounced by residents around Lake Cal houn for their action in having the water in the lake lowered. It is urged that in case the water is lowered four feet as proposed, the beauty of the place will be greatly marred. Ed Goodnowand Joe Gluck, the two young m en caught gambling in the basement of the temperance billiard room yesterday, pleaded guilty and were fined $50 each. Stanley Moore, proprietor of the billiard hall, pleaded not guilty of keeping a gambling room, and his trial was set for Tuesday. A. W. Cams, of Plainfield, N. J., writes Postmaster Ankeny that he has not seen his boy for sixteen years. He thinks he is with Millard Davis, Ferdinand Wilson or Moses Mack, and thinks they live in Minneapolis. Any information will doubtless be appre ciated if sent to Mr. Cams. E. V. nayden owns a colt that is probably the fastest 'four-year old pacer in the coun try. lAt Dcs Moines last year he won three straight heats, making a record of 2:35.
