The Board of Trade Honors the Late Milton Pickett. When the board of trade came to order yesterday morning Aid. Loye presented an tuvltatlou to that body to meet with the Minneapolis council and city officials at the West hotel at 8 o'clock In the eveuing to entertain the Montreal council. The invitation was accepted. , C. J. Buell then presented resolutions in reference to the death of Milton Pickett. The resolutions were listened to with the greatest respect and ap proval, for Mr. Pickett was well known amoug the members of the board, and ■M respected as a couscieutiou* and competent reporter. The resolutions read as follows: Whereas, Ansoue the killed 1-y the burning of the Tribune building was Milton Pickett. who has long been the courteous and effi cient reporter of the proceedings of this bonrit for the Pioneer Press. Besolved, That in the death of Mr. Pickett this board loses a can*, leutious reporter of its proceedings, the Pioneer Press loses a competent member ot "*■ editorial start' and Minneapolis loses a jiocid aiid honest citizen. solved. That these resolutions be offered for publication in the dnilv papers and a copvtsent to the bereaved wife and family, whose loss is greatest of all, and to whom in that affliction we extend our heartfelt sym pathy. The resolutions were carried, and there were several brief, compliment -ry remarks from the memoersof the board, speaking one to the other. "secretary Hall rose and said: "Mr. Pickett was the most accurate and com petent of reporters. His reports of the action of this *»oard were invariably full and accurate. He was the best re porter that ever reported the board of trade meetings. A discussion of the question of the Dakota sufferers followed. There were some suggestions that the money raised, amounting to about $230, be used for some other purpose, but were rejected, as the committee were sure that the money raised, and much more, would be needed by the Dakota sufferers. Fur thermore they did not deem it proper to make a different disposition of it than the one for which it was donated. - - - -". "Secretary Hall stated that some half dozen Dakota men had come to him, quite positive in their assertions that help was not needed. Capt. Reno, chairman of the Dakota committee read a letter from the relief committee in Dakota, to whom he had forwarded eighteen boxes of clothing. It stated that while there was now no absolute suffering, there would be be fore tlie winter was over, and that ht Ip would be needed. The letter urged that Minneapolis would come to their assist ance as St. Paul. Duluth, Fargo and other cities had done. The sentiment of the board seemed to be that despite the contradictory report Dakota did need aid. There was even mention of money lenders and land sharks as being con nected with some of the reports of n > aid being needed. President Wyman took the floor to state that he thought the board were all of one mind regarding the unfortunate sufferers from Saturday night's fatal fire, and suggested that a committee be appointed to investigate whether there was any need of help among them. If there was he was sure the gentlemen of the board would be very ready to give the aid. The suggestion met with universal approval and H. P. Robinson put the sentiment in the form of a motion which was carried and H. P. Robinson, C. A. .Nimocks and W. E. Steele were appointed as a committee which -was to report next week. On the motion of J. M. Bartlett, C. H. Miller, of the Real Estate Reporter, was allowed five minutes in which to bring a matter of gathering of Minneapolis statistics before the board. When he had made his speech E. EL Corser of fered resolutions which were carried that indorsed Mr. Miller in his statistic gathering and urging the jobbers of the city to respond to the circulars which he had sent out. Member Blake offered resolutions to the effect that the board of trade did not deem it politic for the city council to pass an ordinance forbidding the use of sort coal within the city limit. President Wyman offered the sug gestion that the committee appointed to look after the sufferers from the fire draw up resolutions of condolence to be sent to the newspapers which suffered from the tire. This suggestion will be acted upon. J. M. Bartlett warned the board that be was going to bring up the question of how to obtain manufactories at the uext meeting. MINISTERS SYMPATHIZE*; Two Sets of Feeling Resolutions Adopted by Divines. At the meeting of the liberal minis ters yesterday morning, the lowing resolutions were passed, honoring the late Milton Pickett: Whereas, Milton Pickett, of the Pioneer Press, came to his death in the awful calam ity or last Saturday night : aud, "Whereas. Mr. Pickett, with the representa tives of other papers, was constantly in at tendance upon the meetings of this tody, and reported the proceedings with rare ■ac curacy and fidelity; therefore. Resolved, That "we, the liberal ministers of this city, do hereny record our high estimate of Mr. Pickett's ability and fair—ess as a re porter, his broad and varied attainments as a scholar, and his goodness, gentleness and modesty as a man. Kesolved. Thai we express our sympathy with his widowed wife and bereaved friends. M. D. shutter. President. The subject that had been set for the morning's meeting was "Marriase and Divorce," and after the good ministers had discussed the terrible calamity of the fire .-for some time, liev. L. G. Powers read an interesting paper on this interesting subject. He took the rather novel ground in his argument that divorce would eventually lead to a better state of affairs. The orthodox ministers met as usual in the Y. M. C. A. rooms yesterday morning in executive session. The Sunday observance question. Sunday newspapers and Sunday mill work were discussed. Eev. T. McClary introduced resolu tions calling upon citizens and ministers to meet to form a law and order league in order that Sunday may be observed. The following resolutions were carried: In brief words., but with overflowing heart*, we desire to extend our sympathy to the afflicted representatives of the press, and to tbe bereaved friends of those who lost their lives in the Tribune fire. To the Hod of all mace, who has infinite resources of strength and eomlort, who giretb beauty for ashes aud the bit of joy for mourning, we do most sincerely and playfully commend tnem. : /-■ - We. moreover, call the afention of our municipal authorities to the plain admoni tion ot this calamity as to the need of addi tional precautions against loss of life by fire, especially in our many-storied tenements and business establishments, and we invite the thoughtful attention of the fact that life, being nm-ertritn. it Is wise and manly to be always mindful of death and prepared for it. D. iJ.'Bl-RRF.LI.. O. H. Flffast. Geo. H. Mkiuuix. 11. C. Maris. M. Falk Gjertson. G. L. Mo_un_. POISONED AT HIS WORK. The Funeral of Rankin M. Morri son This Afternoon. The funeral of Rankin M. Morrison will occur to-morrow afternoon at 2 o'clock from his late residence, 11C1 Twenty-eighth street south. Rev. Dr. Campbell, of the First Presbyterian church, will officiate. Mr. Morrison died of blood poisoning, resulting from an injury to his left hand. He was a painter by trade, and it is snpposed that he was poisoned by means of the paint getting into a slight cut in his hand. His sister, Mrs. John Watson, of Woodstock, Tt., arrived yesterday afternoon to attend the funeral. The body will be deposited temporarily in Layman's vault, and after a time will be sent to Toronto, Canada, the former home of the deceased. The last week of Mr. Morrison's life was one of great suffering. The poison ing caused a violate swelling. A short time before death, a consultation of physicians was held and an operation performed, but to no avail. Mr. Morrison was married only about two years ago and leaves a young wife. He was about twenty-eight years of age. THE MONTREAL VISITORS. They Are Warmly Welcomed and Royally Kntertalned. A delegation of prominent citizen**! I from Montreal, including the city offi- j cials and press representatives of thai ! city, arrived In Minneepolis at 2 o'clock ! yesterday afternoon and were met at the depot by a delegation of Min neapolitans, most of them being members of the city council. They were entertained by a drive about the city and were then taken to the West hotel, where they were banqueted in the evening. Covers were laid for about 150 persons, and nearly every place was taken. Mayor Bald) was un able l" be present on account of Illness, and his place was takeu by E. M. John son, president of the city council. The list of viUirs from the cty on the St. Lawrence is as follows: Mayor J. Grenier, H. A. PrefontaiueJl. ii. Rainville, Percival St. George, O. Marin, I. D. Holland. P. Kennedy, James Griffin, James Mcßride, W. C. Clendenning.* J. B. E. Dufresne, M. Laurent, Aid. Robert. J. O. Vllleneuve. Vital Greuier, \V. Robb, W. McGibbou, A. Rousseau, B. I).

Morin. president dv bu reau dcs evaluations: K. McConn 11, of the Herald; S. L. Kvdd. of the Ga zette; Walter H. Smith, ofthe Witness; H. l'atneaud.'. of Le Mt tide: Joseph A. Foisy, of L'Eteudard, and George J. Bury, representing the Canadian Pa cific railway. Among the prominent Minneapolitans present, were: Ex- Mau.r Ames, looking as' bealtny as ever; C. A. Pillsbury, C. H. Pettit, C. M. Loring, J. W. Raymond, H. E. Fletcher." Dr. J. E. Johnson. B. F. Neison, F. 0. Pillsbury, F. L. Green leaf and many others. Mayor Ames sat near Tom Downs, but J. S. Arch ibald, of Montreal, »as placed be tween them, probably so that no collis ion between these gentlemen would take place. Charles hovey's smooth and smiling face loomed up as clear as a beacon light in a fog. "Free" Lane and his beard were both present, but neither took an active part in the fes tivities. Clarence Buell wandereu in later to hear tlie speeches, but looked disappointed because single tax was never mentioned. E. G. Potter made himself useful and was never ouce heard to advocate tne apppointment of a city purchasing agent. G. A- Brack ett looked the assembly over with a critical eye, as if to see if there were any orphans present. The party sat down to dinner at 7 o'clock, anil at 8:15 E. M. Johnson, as toastmaster, rapped for order. He started off as if not quite sure of his ground, evidently preparing to call for ayes and noes to making an address of welcome, but he soon regained his nerve and got through in fine style, lie made an admirable master. His reference to the Dominion of Canada as a country tit to become a nation all by itself was greeted with cheers. He referred to the undeveloped country seen between here and Montreal as merely a suggestion of what lies beyond us, and closed by introducing Mayor Grenier. of Montreal. This gentleman: spoke with a marked French accent.'as: did all of the Montrealites who were heard, with one exception, but his sen sible speech was frequently interrupted by applause. he remarked tbat, their reception here had far exceeded his anticipations, and thanked the -people of Minneapolis tor the hospitality exhib ited. He was followed by C. A. Pills-: bury as the representative of tlietnilliite interests. Mr. Pillsbury did not seen*, so mnch as ease as he would be were- he : negotiating "deals*' with an Eng lish evudieate or '"standing- off".-, reporters, but he said what: he wanted to in a plain, straightfor warn manner. He dilated trpoo'the ad vantage which would accrue to Minne apolis and to the whole Northwest 'by ! the establishment of a port at Montreal, and did not forget to mention Minneap olis as the greatest wheat shipping point on this continent. Mr. Piilsottry once referred to the state of Minne apolis, but this was probably due to bis pride in his accepted city. Be was loudly and continuously cheered, especially when he said that the Ameri can roads would have a large contract on their bands when they tried to shut off the Canadian roads, which furnish cheap transportation from the North west to the seaboard. William S.Clenden ning. the prominent iron manufacturer, of Montreal, followed Mr. Pillsbury in a speech replete with wit and humor. Mr. Clendenning is English, aud ex emplifies every character of the inlrabi tors of the -"tight little isle." Short, stocky, full-bearded, he looks the genu ine man of business. He declared that Minneapolis people were so i v n to grinding that they would possibly grind something out of this visit of the Montreal people before they were done with it. But Montreal and the St. Lawrence river were placed by him before everything else. He was, how ever, lavish in his praise of Minneapolis. "Since you now com pete with the world," said he, "what wont's you do when the port of Mont real _ opened. J. S. Wyman followed on the wood manufacturing business of Minneapolis, and was listened to with attention. Raymond Prefontaine came next. He is a lawyer, but looks like a prosperous yonng business man and one fully capable of carrying out the meaning of his own epigram: "In a matter of business there must be no sentiments." He was the only speaker who men tioned the annexation question, but said that, since no great political party in either county has displayed the cour age necessary to take up that issue, the time had not come for the matter to be dilated on. He believed that wheu the time comes that matter will be dis posed of in a business-like manner. H. E. Fletcher, almost the only man pres ent in a dress suit, next talked of the stockyards. H. Robert, a Montreal alderman, who acknowledged that Can ada was away behind the Northwest,fol lowed, and then "Doc" Ames was intro duced as the man who "held office oftener and been deleated oftener than any many in the city." "Doc" eulo gized our school system, and said: . "Give me free schools and I will give yon republics the world over." Be hoped I that Canada and the United States if not one republic, would one day be twin republics. The ex-mayor was followed by J. S. Archibald, of Montreal, brother of the proprietor of Archibald's Busi ness college; on the water works of Minneapolis and Montreal. Several other speeches were made and the ban quet was not over before li o'clock. " f* ' " To-day the visitors will be shown } all over the city and will visit several J prominent business bouses. »'' - ' The County Commissioners. The regular monthly meeting of -the county commissioners was held yester day, all being present except Commis sioner Cfiowen. "Concerning the peti tion of VV. K. Hicks, the irrepressible South Minneapolis druggist, and many other residents of that locality, are no doubt satisfied as the road from the city limits out, through Rich field and bloomington, to the Min nesota river, will undoubtedly be built- The rcportof the commissioners having that matter under consideration , was favorable to the petitioners, and was adopted.

ADAMSON SENTENCED. _ -,■'.-■ He Will Go to Stillwater Unless tbe Supreme Court Intervenes. W. H. Adamson's only hope of escap ing the penitentiary now lies with the, supreme court, and utiles.-, this seat of justice see fit to reverse Judge Hooker's decision. The argument for n new trial of the case of Adamson, con vie tea at the last term of court for forgery in the second degree, was the only case on trial at the district court yesterday. and his attorneys, Merrick & Merrick, tried hard to convince the court that they were entitled to a new trial, but to no purpose. Armed with the usual pile of affidavits, they were, in the mind of Judge Hooker, insufficient to secure the desired new trial. In the motion for a new trial It was alleged that Adamson was convicted oo insuffi cient evidence; ', that the indictment on which he was brought to trial was faulty; that the jurors, or some of them, particularly Thomas Wing, were preju diced against him, and had expressed opinions prejudicial to his case before the matter came to trial, and that County Attorney Jamison was guilty of mis conduct in attacking tho private charac ter of Adamson. Adamson, in his affidavit, alleges that A. J. Finnegan and one other juror had been beard to say that it was a pity they could not send Norris over the road with Adamson. He avers that Thomas Wing, when sworn in as a juror, declared that he never knew Adamson, wh -reas the latter asserts that Adamsou had been trying to deal with him for weeks prior to the trial, and but that he (Adamson) would have nothing to do with ing. Tommy Nevvlom's affidavit affirms that hi; had heard certain jurors assert that Norris' evidence "cut no figure." and that they were going to send Adamson to prison on general principles, as it were. Thomas Wing is said to have re marked, as detailed in the affidavit of E. H. Hall, while the trial was in pro gress, that Adamson's chances for es cape were very slim. The money k>an er's attorneys dilated upou these af tidavies. but all to no purpose. Adam son was sentenced to imprisonment in the Stillwater penitentiary for one year and three months. He was placed under bonds of ?S.(XHJ pending an approval of the supreme court. J. K. Frear, diaries Dowager, John McDermott, O. T. Nel son and John Sweeney, qualified and were accepted as bondsmen.

Frank Daniels, the Old Sport of "Rae Baby" memory, and his company opened a three nights' engagement at tlie Grand opera house last evening. A good-sized audience was in attendance. The play is a novel one, and (he an nouncement that all recognized rules of dramatic construction have been vio lated in putting it together is justified. Daniels was deliciously droll as Pack ingham Giltedge, the matter-of-fact broker, who first occupies his own bodj and afterwards tliat of his son Billy, and his support is a brilliant oue. the musical specialties being all clever, while the dialogue is witty and the sit uations extremely funny. Mr. Daniels generously gave his share of tlte receipts of the house to the families of the vie- ! Tims of the Tribune building fire. - This afternoon Li-berati's band will give a concert at the Grand opera bouse. 'Lib erati will play three solos and an attract ive programme has been arranged, in cluding the appearance of Mme. Sofia Bomani, the well-known vocalist, who has many admirers in Minneapolis. The receipts will be given to the fami lies of the -victims of the fire. Mrs. George F. Knight's Comedy com pany opened a week's stand last night at the Minneapolis Harris to a fairauiii ence. ''Beauty Bess," "Hoop La Queen"' and "My Lord in Livery," three short one-act, but high-classed comedies were the attractions. The company consists ot eight persons, all of whom give entire satisfaction in their parts, and. the contrast of the plays' furnish room for ere at versatility in trra marie art. Mrs. Knight appeared as Constance Kevins in "Hoop-La-Queen," and Sybil in "My Lord in Livery," and her refined, artistic acting won her the admiration of the audience. All mem bers of the company deserve especial mention/and their entertainment is as novel as it is delightful. Edward War ren. Charles W. King. Ted Peiper, Mary Leece aud Jenny Eddy are the other members of the company, which is one of the best on the road. "The Waifs of New York" opened to a full house at the Bijou last night. Miss Katie Emm as Willie iiufus. a bootblack, is one of the few women who can wear male attire becomingly. She , is also an actress that will win applause wherever she has lines to speak. George "A . Thompson, as a German emigrant, is a conscientious actor, who re fuses to overdo a character sketch even to win the approbation of i an audience. Younger members of the profession should emulate his example. , Charles Patterson as a Wall street bankeT is not only an actor of promise, but an actor of the present, besides pos . sessing a face and figure that the stage requires. T. J. Langdon as the French refugee did the character-villain part so well as to arouse the indignation of the audience. Misses Maud E. Peters, Lottie Williams and Nellie Maskell de serve mention— in fact, the whole com pany are up to the stage standard. The drama itself is a good one and well worth seeing.

V* ■ ■.///:. STANDING ROOM ONLY. A Murderer Revoir Is Playing the Insanity Dodge. Humour, Wis., Dec 2.— Standing room has been at a premium during the i continuance of the McDonald murder trial. The case, which commenced a week ago, has been closely contested at every point, Messrs. Erwin, Bashford and Wetbet by having made the most of the possibilities of Revoir's in sanity at the time of the shooting. The state, represented by live attorneys, has vigorously opposed the claim, and over lon witnesses, including a number of medical experts, have been sub poenaed. The defense closed their tes timony on the issue of insanity Satur day, and the state is now engaged in trying to break down the evidence offered. It has been shown that hered itary insanity existed in the family for a number of years. By a number of witnesses they also attempted to prove that when Revoir heard from his wife the story of McDonald's assault he be came crazed, and, after seeking the officers of the law, who refused to act in the case, he took matters into bis own hands. The testimony on this point show ing evidence of insanity was not very strong, although a number of witnesses testified to his condition at that time. The rulings of Judge Buudy have been favorable to the defense, thus far, amoug other things, by eliminating from the case everything pertaining to the charge of rape, aside from the effect produced on Revolt's mind at the time of the shooting. The state offered to prove the falsity of the charge, and that a conspiracy existed for the killing of James McDonald. The evidence offered was ruled out tinder de fendant's objection. The first branch of the case will be finished by Tuesday or Wed nesday, and the issue of insanity wili be decided before the main issue will be tried. If the jury find Revoir insane at the time of the shooting, the case will be tried on its merits in order to determine tlie negree of the crime, aud in that event it will probably last for another greek. The revolver and bullet with which Revoir murdered MeDonald, and the latter's dying statement, were put in evidence by the state. Expert testi mony on insanity is yet to be introduced. Revoir for the first time acts nervous and downcast. ' -.:- Their Bonds Approved. Special to the Globe. Abeui»een", S. D., Dec. The offi cial bonds of Messrs.
