mi HKIGHTON STOCK YARDS
SCHEME IS THIS HBHUHf iT
DEIVOISCED
AT A WARM MASS MEETING
OP THE BUSINESS MEN OP
SOUTH ST. PAUIi AND
VICINITY.
THEY SAY THEY WILL NOT MOVE
Whether the Inchoate Deal Is Car
ried to Completion by the Rail-,
roads or Not.
A meeting of the business men of
South St. Paul was held in the Ex
change building, Saturday afternoon,to
consider the matter of the contemplat
ed purchase of the New Brighton yards
by the Minnesota Transfer company.
The following Arms were represented:
The Union Stockyards company, C. L.
Haas Commission company, E. M.
Prouty & Co., Rogers & Rogers, Tom
lir.son, Bowles & Co., Mallory, Son &
Zimmerman company, Thuet Bros., the
Union Stockyards bank, the St. Paul
Distillery, the Daily Reporter, Staples
& King, W. E. McCormick, the Minne
sota Soap company, J. B. Fitzgerald, J.
R. King, G. W. Wentworth, Shimmer
& Evans, J. E. Bolton, Edgar & Long,
J. B. Long & Co.
Hankey Bros., T. J. Mouat. of Sut
phin Packing company, Duluth; J. P.
Nolan, city recorder.
J. J. Rogers was elected chairman,
and George Dart secretary, and the fol
lowing resolutions were unanimously
adopted:
Whereas, It has been stated in the public
press that the Minnesota Transfer Railway
company, a corporation owned and controlled
by eight of the prominent railway companies
centering at St. Paul and Minneapolis, is
contemplating the purchase of the Minne
apolis stock yards, thus banding together for
the purpose of maintaining and promoting the
interests of said stock yards as against those
at South St. Paul, thus endangering St. Paul's
commercial interests in general and those of
South St. Paul ln particular; therefore be It
Resolved, by th 9 business men of South St.
Paul, including practically all of the live
stock dealers, feeders, butchers, live stock
commission merchants, meat wholesalers and
the citizens of South St. Paul generally, That
we contemplate the movement as unjustifiable,
and under the circumstances unreasonable
for the following reasons:
First— That the present location of the St
Paul union stock yards at South St. Paul, on
the bank of the Mississippi river, with its per
fect sewerage system, and its geographical
location below the two great cities, and
far enough from them to eliminate all ob
jection on account of sanitary conditions, is
superior to any other locality in the imme
diate vicinity of said cities.
Second— That the large modern packing
houses already constructed at this point are
ample for the packing of all of the hogs,
sheep and cattle now tributary to this mar
ket, or will be tributary to it for years to
come, and that, it will be extravagant, waste
ful and useless to incur further large ex
penditure for the construction of facilities,
where those already existing are more than
ample, besides dividing the business, and
adding to the inconvenience and expense of
doing it, thus making it unprofitable for all
concerns. m9(IJ " ';--■■'
Third— That the location of the St. Paul
yards is reasonably convenient, and the
twitching charges nominal and satisfactory to
shippers and owners of live stock, and when
all of the railway lines are considered, far
more accessible than those at Minneapolis.
Fourth— That the sewerage system and the
sanitary conditions at the Minneapolis yards
are abominable, the sewage and offal being
deposited indirectly into Long lake, the out
let of which leads to the Mississippi river
above . Minneapolis and St. Paul; that the
country in and about Long lake is flat and
more or less- marshy, with sandy soil, through
which the seepage of the slaughtering houses
may readily contaminate the St. Paul water
supply, all of which comes from the lakes
north of the city; that this is a menace to
the health of St. Paul (if this scheme is ful
filled) is reasonably certain, for there is no
place to which a sewerage system may lead.
If it goes west, it will dump into the Missis
sippi river near Minneapolis; if it goes east,
it will pollute the water supply of St. Paul.
There is no natural drainage.' and the loca
tion of extensive -stock yards at this point
will surely arouse the Indignation and em
phatic opposition of the public.
Fifth— lt has been stated, we are informed,
that in case this transfer deal is consum
mated, that the-live stock commission men,
the cattle feeders and buyers, the whole
salers of meats and others engaged in kin
dred business will remove from South St.
Paul. This we wish to emphatically deny,
and we hereby pledge ourselves to continue
in business at the old stand, without regard
to the proposed movement. It has also been
stated by persons interested in this scheme,
that the management of the stock yards at
South St. Paul has been arbi^ry, unreason
able and unjust to those doing business with
the stock yards. This statement we pro
nounce as unmitigatedly false. There is no
semblance of truth in any such statement,
and we unanimously agree that, on the other
hand, the management has been able, im
partial and just, and every reasonable effort
has at all times exerted in the interest of
those doing business at this market.

TWO MORE SIDEWALK SUITS.
City May Have to Pay Claimants
Over $15,000.
Defective sidewalks are the cause for
two complaints which were served at
City Attorney Darragh'B office yes
terday. Marian Zerkowskl, by her at
torneys, Stevens, O'Brien, Cole & Al
brecht, and Morltz Heim, will bring
suit against the city for the sum of
$15,000. She claims that while walking
on Dale street at a point between Ash
land and Laurel avenues, Aug. 26, she
broke through the sidewalk and was
precipitated to the ground and suffered
dangerous, painful and permanent in
juries, being bruised about the head
, from, the eff eoto ot which »he became

bereft of reason and continued so for
a long time after the accident.
The plaintiff claims that the city au
thorities were notified of the defective
walk on and prior to the date of the
accident.
The other complaint is made by Win
nie McKenna by her guardian ad litem,
Manus McKenna. Plaintiff is less than
fourteen years of age. The complaint
states that on Aug. 23 the plaintiffs
foot caught in a hole in the walk on
the south side of Reaney street, be
tween Arcade and Mendota streets.
A broken board flew up and caught
her toe, throwing her and causing her
to sustain Injuries In the form of a
broken collar bone. The amount de
manded is $500. Edward J. Cameron
acts as attorney.
INGERSOLX, FINAIA.Y WON
In the Snlt About World* Fair Pic
tures.
After an extended legal battle as to
the exclusive rights to publish the
world's fair pictures, Truman Ingersoll
has won out by default of the other
parties to the litigation, and now pos
sesses the exclusive privileges formerly
claimed by Kilbourne & Davis.
Shortly after the world's fair both Kil
bourne & Davis and Ingersoll began
publishing the pictures, each firm
claiming the exclusive right. Kilbourne
& Davis brought suit in the United
States court to prevent Mr. Ingersoll
from continuing his publication of
views, but have dismissed their action,
and Mr. Ingersoll's rights are now un
disputed.
When the dispute arose representa
tion was made to Mr. Ingersoll which
induced him to destroy his negatives
and to abandon the business, but upon
the advice of his attorneys, C. D.
O'Brien, he again began making the
pictures and the suit in the federal
court followed.
A temporary injunction was secured
by Kilbourne & Davis, which was dis
charged, and later they applied for a
permanent injunction. This was re
fused and the case came before Judge
Thomas on a demurrer to the com
plaint which was never decided. Kil
bourne & Davis then made an offer of
a compromise, which was refused by.
Mr. Ingersoll, and a dismissal of the
case has finally been ordered upon
motion of the plaintiffs.
FAST DRIVING NOW
The Charge Against the Three Sup
posed Banditti.
John Moberg, H. Peterson and
Charles Ferguson are having a merry
time in the police court. Last Monday
night Moberg was arrested while in
a pawn shop by Patrolman Perro.
Peterson and Ferguson, who were out
side the store in a rig, drove off as
soon as their companion was taken in
custody. They drove to Minneapolis,
but Moberg having told where the rig
was hired, the police of that city were
waiting for the twain when they drove
in. Peterson and Ferguson were
brought back and arraigned in court
yesterday along with Moberg, charged
with stealing two pair of pants from
Louis Johnson. The second hand store
man in whose possession the pants were
found, say they are not his property,
and the three prisoners deny all know
ledge of the clothing. Ferguson was
expected by the officers to take the
stand and turn state's evidence on the
other two. He refused to carry out the
contract, and in consequence the case
against them was dismissed. The trio
were, however, rearrested on a charge
of fast driving and will have a trial
on this charge Tuesday.
FOUND A GARNISHEE.
Hamm Brewing Co. Is Hard After
Prigge's Money.
The case of William Prigge, the West
side saloonkeeper who was recently
brought back from Florida on the
charge of defrauding the Theodore
Hamm Brewing company, was before
Judge Kelly yesterday on garnishee
proceedings. It was learned by the
brewing company that D. C. Campbell
was supposed to have control of cor.
tain funds belonging to Prigge and the
former was served with papers, of
garnishment covering the money al
leged to be in his possession. Judge
Kelly referred the master to L. J. Dob
ner to take the necessary disclosure.
HENRY DIVORCE CASE.
Question of Alimony Now Involved:
ln It.
Mrs. Kate Henry, who is suing her
husband for divorce, applied to Judge
Willis yesterday for alimony and at
torney's fees, but Peter Henry, the de
fendant, secured a continuance on the
application for one week, conditional
upon the immediate surrender by him
of all of his wife's personal effects and
the payment to her of the sum of $10
before 6 o'clock last evening. If the
condition of the order were not com
plied with, Judge Willis stated that he
would grant Mrs. Henry $10 a month
alimony and $50 at once for attorney's
fees.
LOWE IS RELEASED.
Prison Doors Opened on Supreme
Court's Order.
Charles R. Lowe, sentenced to Still
water for complicity in the death of
Clara Berg, has been released from
prison, the indictment upon which he
was convicted haying been found de
fective by the supreme court. Mr.
Lowe was in St. Paul yesterday, and
called upon Sheriff Chapel. He sur
prised the sheriff by his physical ap
pearance and seems to be in much bet
ter health than when he was sent to
Stillwater over a year ago.

ORIENTAL RUGS
M&W« NEW PRICES.
We have been working- "hard for nearly a week to get our new
stock of Oriental Rugs ready for exhibition and sale. It's probably
the largest slfcek ever shown in the Northwest, and every Rug was
selected with the utmost care for its texture, colorings or patterns.
Nowithetfe are several ways of selling Rugs. One way is to sell
them at auction whenever a bid is received that's high enough to
suit the alleged Turk who sells them. In these cases the collections
are the left-overs from sales in other cities.
Another way is to mark them at a profit of 100 per cent and
then knock off 25 per cent.
Neither of these ways suit us. In the first place we bought
them wonderfully cheap and we propose to sell them on our basis
of Lowest Prices.
The Rug-*— "even the Antiques — are in perfect condition. There
isn't a "rag" in the entire collection. And we promise you the
prices will be%
The Lowest Y©u Ewer Saw.
Oriental Rugs in all sizes, from small door mats to large carpets.
* For convenience of quick selling we make five Very Special
lots at very special prices for the opening day of the sale:
Lot I— Carabagh Rugs, $6.90.
Lot 2— Carabagh Rugs, $8.50.
Lot 3— Daghestan Rugs, $10.00.
Lot 4— Daghestan Rugs, $12.00.
Lot s— Daghestan Rugs, $15.00.
Bokhara Rugs, in rich, mellow colorings, $15.00, $17.00
$22.00, and up to $45.00.
The finest collection of Antique Persian Rugs, large sizes,
$35.00 to $85.00 each.
Extra large carpet sizes, $45.00 to $125.00.
Stair Rugs, or Hall Runners, all sizes, $35.00 to $140.00.
We repeat— these Rugs will be sold on a New Basis— cheaper
than you ever saw them. Every Rug is perfect. They'll wear for
years and years and become more valuable every year. Do you
know of anything that could be more acceptable as a Christmas
Gift? We d^n't.

Treasury Department Thinks Dae

ble.
The question has been raised In the
treasury department as to whether the
St. Paul health department should pay
a duty on the bacteriologioal apparatus
which was admitted free by the local
custom office. It was due to the ef
forts of Dr. Stone that the Imported ar
ticles were admitted free, as he knew
the principal functions of the goods In
question, were Intended for scientific
research, and convinced the customs
department that it should make an ex
ception in this case and let the articles
through. When the report reached the
treasury department It caused an in
quiry, and the federal authorities do
not think the health department should
receive its imported chemical instru
ments without paying* the resrulation
duty.
Two certificates o* ejection expenses wer«
filed at the e^p'tol yestarday, both hy Minne
apolis men. Ju<"s« Seagrave Smith told the
secretary of stat* "tbat ho had expended $749.92,
and Congressman I^oren Fletcher informed tha
governor that bis expenses were $736.62.
