■MAYORS TALK SHOP PAPERS DEALING "WITH THE PROBLEMS OF CITIES READ VT COLUMBUS. WELCOMED BY BUSHNELL SOME GOOD ADVICE GIVEN THE MUNICIPAL RULERS BY OHIO'S GOVERNOR. FOR HIS HONOR OF MINNEAPOLIS. Place on the Committee on Organ ization Assigned to the Dele gation From Minnesota. COLUMBUS, 0., Sept. 28.— The first annual conference of the mayors and councilmen of the United States, <■ Canada and Mexico was called to or der at 11 o'clock this morning by May or Black, of this city, with 160 regular accredited delegates. The mayor's opening remarks were brief, and he closed by introducing Gov. Bushnell, who said the mayors' congress would inaugurate another epoch. While mu nicipal officials for centuries had been dealing with "municipal problems," it had been proved that even long-tilled fields could, under modern methods and careful husbandry, be made to produce more bountiful harvests. The close of the century seems to find us ln a condition which presents as many things to be done in our cities and towns as there was at the time of the foundation of the centers of the popu lation. No city is now so rich in ex cellent results but that there is room for mdre wealth in that way. At the close of the governor's wel come, Mayor Black presented Mayor Collier, of Atlanta, Ga., who responded for the visitors in a glowing speech of sentiments of patriotism, presenting the importance of good municipal gov ernment with great force and elo quence. Mayor Black was made chairman of the convention, and "ditor Gordon, secretary, to serve only during the ses sions of the convention prior to the formation of a permanent organiza tion on the closing day. At noon the convention adjourned until 2 p. m. Mayor MacVeigh, of Dcs Moines, then read a paper entitled "Street Lighting; by Contract. Municipal Control or Mu nicipal Ownership; Which?" He said when he undertook to investigate the question of municipal ownership he was about as well informed upon tho subject as was the farmer's wife who asked her husband to bring home some electric plants that they might, by raising their own lights, save kerosene. The local companies made a vigorous campaign to defeat the proposition authorizing municipal ownership of a plant, money and political influence being freely used, but the vote was fa vorable by nearly three to one. The plant is not yet built, owing to suits j threatened by "prominent" taxpayers j under the direction and advice of the attorneys of the local companies. It was nearly 3 o'clock when Chair man Black called the meeting to order this afternoon. Chairman Black an nounced the following as the commit tee to formulate a plan of permanent organization: Mayors MeViear, of Dcs Moines, Io.; Pratt, of Minneapolis, Minn.; Collier, of Atlanta, Ga.; Hastings, of Niagara -^-.. Falls. N. V., and Councilman Walker, of Trenton, N. J. This committee is to report not later than Wednesday night. It is looked upon as fairly representative of the attendance, geographically and other wise, and the delegates expect a great deal from it in the way of practical suggestions. Joseph AY. Stover, of New York, oc cupied forty minutes of the time of the convention in the reading of a pa per on "Telegraphic Systems for the v Facilitation of Fire and Police Serv ice." It was largely technical In char acter. A paper by William Brophy, chief electrician of the city of Boston, on "Modern Construction and Mainte nance of Electric Wires and Their Su pervision by Municipalities," was read. There was no discussion of either pa per, and at 4 o'clock the convention > adjourned until 8 p. m. Chairman Black, in his opening re marks at tonight's session, made refer ence to the importance of street light ing in cities, and called attention to the significance and influence of the Na ~"** tional Street Lightning association now in session here. In closing, he intro duced Henry Hopkins, of New Haven, Conn., who is secretary of the asso ciation. He read a paper on "The Proper Lighting of City Streets," tha chief point of which was an analysis of the reasons why the cost of public lighting is increasing, while the cost per light is decreasing. These he gave as the expansion of the populated area of cities, the' fact that light decreases s crime, the application of light to rapdi street transit, the demand for improved service in old localities and the pur suit of mercantile and professional du ties at night, i The National Street Lighting" associa tion has thirty-eight delegates here, but so far its deliberations have pos-, I sessed no measure of public interest. Mayor McVicar, of Dcs Moines, lc, followed with a prepared paper on •"Street Lighting by Contract and by Municipal Ownership." The official roster of the conference, as far as completed tonight, contains 185 names, but many of the delegates _, are from Columbus and other near-by Ohio cities. Outside of Ohio, the prin cipal cities represented are Minneapo . t lis, Denver. St. Paul, Tampa, Joliet. 111.; New Haven, Atlanta, Birmingham, Dcs Moines, Peoria. Pawtucket, De troit, Evansville. Baltimore, Fargo and Wilmington, Del. "IRRIGATORS" IN CONGRESS. Sixth National Meeting In Progress a! Lincoln. LINCOLN, Neb., Sept. 28.— Delegates to the National Irrigation congress, which began its sixth annual session * tcday, made a record for industry in disposing of work on hand and setting a pace for more elaborate proceedings to follow. The initial session this aft ernoon was marked by an overflow of enthusiasm on the part of the partici pants and visitors. Addresses by such men as Judge Emery, of Kansas; K. R. Moses, of the same state, and Assist -9 ant Land Commissioner Best, of Wash ington, D. C, did not fail to awaken interest in movements which they championed, and sentiments expressed were applauded and re-echoed by lecal speakers whose interest in irrigation projects is reaching the point entertain ed by districts where the enterprise is no longer in its infancy. Thus far there has been little said concerning new officers of the congress. Secretary Heintz is understood to be a candidate for re-election, and has strong support. Two aspirants for the next place of meeting have appeared in the cities of Atlanta. Ga.. and Guthrie, Okla. At i » lanta appears to be generally favored. \ > A meeting of the executive board of THE ROAD TO KLONDIKE a long and hard one. It's much easier to get 80LD DUST from your grocer. Sold everywhere and cleans everything. Made only by Jfc THE K. K. FAIRBAHK COR3PAMY, Chicago. St. Louis New York. Boaton. Philadelphia. the national congress was called at 11 o'clock. The meeting was largely for the purpose of outlining the work of the convention, but it was decided to-leave the matter of programme and papers to a committee composed of the president and secretary of the congress. It was decided that the president of the congress elected at Phoenix last year, C. B. Booth, of California, act as president of the present congress until his successor could be elected, and that he appoint the necessary secretar ies and assistants. There was no par ticular contest, but the action was con sidered a victory for the far West. It was 2 p. m. when President Booth called the congress to order in Assem bly hall of the University of Nebraska. On the platform, besides the officers of the congress, were Gov. Holcomb, Mayor Graham and Chancellor Mac- Lean, of the university. Rev. J. G. Mail ley offered prayer. Chairman of the National Committee Moses announced the secretaries, and Secretary Heintz read the call for the meeting of the congress. President Booth introduced Gov. Holcomb, who welcomed delegates in an address of some length. Chancel lor Mac Lean seconded, on behalf of the educational interests of the state, the wtlcome of the governor. Judge Emery, of Kansas, responded to an ad dress of welcome on behalf of the con gress. The question of the possibility of locating and tracing underground streams of water was the Subject of an extended and carefully prepared pa per by Dr. J. G. Sutton, of Rushsyl vania, O. Dr. Sutton at the outset ad mitted that his subject was an unpopu lar one, inasmuch as it invaded a field heretofore held by waterwitches, or those claiming to be endowed with di vine power aided by a forked stick. His insistence was, however, that, by fol lowing the ordinary rules of scientific research, the location of subsurface water was possible, having no connec tion with superstition and other rub bish surrounding the subject. Dr. Sutton's paper was the last of the afternoon, and a business session followed, but was limited to the ap pointment of committees on permanent organization and resolutions. Califor nia delegates head the list on the lat ter, but It is claimed to have no signi ficance, inasmuch as the committee will meet and select Its own chairman. The congress will reassemble tomorrow morning at 9:30. Tonight the members of the congress were tendered an in formal reception at the capitol build ing by Gov. Holcomb, oth«r state offi cers and Lincoln citizens. THE OLD WAY Of Treating,- Dyspepsia and Indiees tion by Dieting- a Bnrbnroais and Useless One. We say the old way. but really it is a very common one at present time and many dyspeptics and physicians as well consider the first step to take in attempting to cure indigestion is to diet, either by selecting certain foods and rejecting others or to greatly di minish the quantity usually taken, in other words the starvation plan is by many supposed to be the first essen tial. The almost certain failure of the starvation cure for dyspepsia has been proven time and again, but still the moment Dyspepsia makes its appear ance a course of dieting Is at one advised. All this is radically wrong. It is foolish and unscientific to recommend dieting or starvation to a man suffer ing from Dyspepsia, because Indiges tion itself starves every organ and ev ery nerve and every fibre in the body. What the Dyspeptic wants is abund ant nutrition, which means plenty of good, wholesome, well-cooked food and something to assist the weak stomach to digest it. This is exactly the pur pose for which Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab lets are adapted and this is the method by which they cure the worst cases of Dyspepsia, in other words the patient eats plenty of wholesome food and Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets digest it for him. In this way the system i.~ nourished and the overworked stomach rested, because the tablets will digest the food whether the stomach works or not. One of these tablets will digest 3,000 grains of meat or eggs. Your druggist will tell you that Stu art's Dyspepsia Tablets is the purest and safest remedy sold for stomach troubles and every trial makes one more friend for this excellent prepara tion. Sold at 50 cts. for full sized pack age at all drug stores. A little book on stomach diseases mailed free by addressing Stuart Co., Marshall, Mich. m*— TWO MILLION SHORT. Affairs of the Borough of Brooklyn in Bad Shape. NEW YORK, Sept. 28.— The examina tion of the financial departments of the various municipalities, which will be consolidated into the Greater New York, has revealed a shortage of from $1,600,000 to $2,000,000 in Brooklyn. Un less special legislation is obtained at Albany to prevent It, this shortage will be saddled upon the taxpayers of the greater city. Under a clause of the charter creating the Greater New York the comptroller of the present city of New York was lequirtd to examine and pass upon the accounts of the financial officers of the cities and towns that are included in the different boroughs. Two months ago, Comptroller Fitch ap pointed a number of expert accountants , to do this work. The accountants se lected to go through the books of Brooklyn found matters in bad shape. One of the first things encountered was a discrepancy of $1,500,000 between the books of the comptroller and those of the registrar of arrears of taxes. This was found to represent the unpaid taxes of Brooklyn, which had been al lowed to accumulate year after year, until the amount due the city is esti mated at from 51.500,000 to $2,000,000. The largest par.t of this amount is said to be for personal taxes, and while it is included among the assets of the city of Brooklyn, it is non-callectible. IH'RLINGTON ROUTE EXCURSIONS.

WINONA, Minn., Sept. 2S.— The case of Daniel Brown against Irvin Jirown, a damage suit for $10,000, was on trial in the district court here today before Judge Buckham, of Faribault, the charge of the plaintiff being the alienation of his wife's affections by the defendant. THE SAINT PAUt GLOBS: WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 1897. flOtf WILL IT WORK? BELIEF THAT THE SEBASTIAN FORM OF INTERCHANGEABLE MILEAGE "WON'T DO. BIG MERCHANTS MAY KICK. LITTLE ADVANTAGE TO THEM, "WHILE HELPING OUT THEIR COMPETITORS. "WHAT A MINNEAPOLIS MAN SAYS. Six New Elevators Going; Up on tlie Great Northern in Washington- Mr. Ma<le Promoted. The passenger men from St. Paul who returned yesterday from Chicago after having taken part in the adop tion of the Sabastian form of the inter changeable milage ticket, which goes into effect Nov. 1, are not inclined to discuss the matter at any great length. The gossip is that the Sebastian form was not adopted because it was best, but because it was to be depended up on to show how entirely unsatisfactory this interchangeable business is when it applies on all roads in the territory. The strong lines naturally did not want the new plan. They each had a list of roads upon which their 1,000 and 2,000 mile books were good. The job bers did not force the action. either. In fact some of the railroaders insisted that the big merchants would kick just as it turns out they have. The pres sure came from within and was put in motion by the weak lines, and now that the books are to go in the same ccmplaint is made by the jobbers. While it is early to predict at this time, it will probably be true after a fair trial that the strong lines can go back to their 1,000 and 2,000 mile books, which in fact they will still leave on sale along side of the new form. Although the determination to put the new book in Nov. l.was reached only a few days ago, the sentiment is already strongly against the innova tion, coming chiefly from the North western wholesalers. A Minneapolis jobber said yesterday: "With the mileage in use, a deposit is put up with the road from which transportation has been taken out. Many a small house has been unable to keep a man in the field because a been obliged to get over territory which could only be reached through, say, ten different times. Two much j money was tied up in the purchase of mileage under such conditions and the result was that the smail outside deal ers confined their attempts to secure trade to their own localities or branch, ed out very gingerly when they did any soliciting. "Now it will be different with the interchangeable mileage. They will be able to get over the most of the de sirable territory on the investment of one mileage ticket at a time, say $50 in all. "Their activity will invade our in terests at every hand. Small houses in the smaller towns will put at least one agent ou'. The manufacturers of specialties, too, will be heard from. -Every small maker of any one article will now consider keeping a man on the road. "In a way all this will be to the benefit of Chicago perhaps more than to any other city. She has myriads of small manufactories. Heretofore they have kept out of the territory. Now they will fairly swarm over the route our agents follow. Of course the new arrangement will be to the benefit and convenience of all the traveling pub lic, the big concerns included, but the chief harvest will come to the small foreign dealers who has heretofore been excluded by the capital required to keep a solicitor busy." The Wisconsin Central people have given notice that they will hold off their contemplated action in regard to their own form of mileage books until the new form can be fairly tested. SHORT-HAUL CASES. Tyro Decisions hy the Interstate Commerce Commission. WASHINGTON, Sept. 28.— The inter state commerce commission today an nounced its decision of two long and short-haul cases in an opinion by Com missioner Knapp, in the case of Fewell against the Alabama & Vicksburg rail way and others, and in the matter of coal rates charged by the Alabama £. Vicksburg and Alabama Great Couth- | crn railway companies. The cases in volved the transportation of coal from Corona, Birmingham and Blocton, Ala., to local points in Mississippi on tht Alabama ft Vicksburg railway at high i er rates than were charged for longer I distances over the same line to Jack son and Vicksburg, Miss. The various carriers from Alabama mines to Jackson agreed upon the rate to that place, which rate was less for each line than was charged on coal to shorter distance points over the same line in the same direction. This, the opinion holds, violates the fourth section of the interstate commerce act. Coal from Alabama mines to Vicks burg must go by railroad. The compe tition of such coal in Vicksburg is with coal brought over long distances down the Ohio and Mississippi rivers from the Pittsburg. Pa., district. This com petition was held not to be rail and water competition for transportation from the same locality, but the compe tition of mines or markets for supply ing coal to Vicksburg, the force and effect of which is determined by com mercial considerations peculiar to the business of shippers, and wholly dis connected from the circumstances and conditions under which transportation is conducted. The commission further rules that the long and short-haul clause of the iaw applies only when the traffic Is "over the same line," and "in the same direc tion, and to "transportation under sub stantially similar circumstances and conditions," and "the shorter" must be included within "the longer" dis tance; and that, notwithstanding these limitations, any injustice or hardship which may result to carriers from com pliance with the long and short-haul rule is removable by the commission upon application by such carriers un der the procedure authorized by the proviso to the fourth section. ROADS STILL OUT. Arguments of the "Western Associa tion Lines Without Avail. CHICAGO, Sept. 28.— The meeting of all the Western roads, called for the purpose of considering the rate situa tion, was held today at the office of Chairman Caldwell, of the Western Passenger association. The Southern Pacific, the Great Northern and the Northern Pacific were not represented at the meeting, and this threw a frost at the outset on any attempt to stiffen up the conditions in the transcontinen tal passenger traffic. A resolution was offered providing that, effective Oct. 1, all of the roads should cease the pay ment of commissions in the territoi'y east of the Missouri river, and, after Oct. 1, on transcontinental traffic. It was debated somewhat and then went over until tomorrow.- The meeting then resolved itself into another effort to get the Great Western and the Wis consin Central into the association. Both roads were represented at the meeting, but at the close of the meet ing both declared that they would not become members of the Western Passenger association^ They were plied with arguments, ;but they were without effect. The meeting will be continued tomorrow".* '>" - s< 't. ALL ROADS WANTED IT. Scramble for the' Business to tbe Underwriters',' Convention. The fire underwriters':; convention in Chicago has had the effect of disturbing the Chicago lines Seven more than re ports have recently 'created them with In the line of passenger demoralization. The lines, and the stronger lines fought the hardest, all waited ...the Twin City delegation, and as a result all sorts of rates were made, and it is charged that all sorts of excessive commissions were paid to get the business. The authorized rate was a fare and a third for the round trip, but although this was slashed, it was at first thought that yesterday would end the trouble, being the last day named for the rate, but several of the roads have announc ed that the rate still goes, and passen gers to the Windy City yesterday, who meant to return, could do so just as cheaply as their next door neighbors could make the one way trip. The statement was made late yesterday aft ernoon, that a rate of less than the one way rate was quoted for the round trip. The tickets are good returning until Oct. 5. ENDED BY STIPULATION. Omaha's Action Against C. W. Fisber, Ex-Paymaster. A stipulation of dismissal was filed yesterday in the United States circuit court of appeals In the case of the Chi cago, St. Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha Railroad company against Charles Fisher, formerly paymaster of the cor poration. The complaint set forth that Mr. Fisher was appointed paymaster of the Omaha in August, 1889, and alleged that out of the large sums of money entrusted to him for disburse ment from time to time, on account of the company, defendant had retained $5,057.16. In his answer, Mr. Fishor affirmed that from the date of his appointment as paymaster to the time of his sum mary dismissal, he disbursed for the company and on its account, a total of about $13,000,000; that his salary was $150 per month; that while the vouchers returned by him to., the company amounted in the aggregate to a sum loss than the amount so received, all of the moneys were paid out for and on account of the company, and that at the time of his dismissal he had re ceived for himself not more than $30 above his salary of $150 a month. The stipulation ends the suit to recover the amount of the alleged deficit. ONLY ON PROBATION. Sebastian Ticket Form May Be Re placed if Unsatisfactory. CHICAGO, Sept. 28.— The net earn ings of the Atchison system of August were $921,281, an increase of $168,325 over the same month of last year. For the two months of the fiscal year to Aug. 31, the net earnings have been $1,386,038, an increase of $80,185. The total income from operation for the two months shows an increase of $152, --679. The adoption of the Sebastian ticket by the Western roads for the inter changeable mileage ticket traffic is not final, and should that ticket prove un satisfactory after a short trial, some thing else will be tried. The majority of the roads, however, are of the opin ion that the ticket will answer the pur pose admirably. There is no question but that the ticket will reduce scalp ing to the minimum, as there is nothing which the scalpers can get hold of to place on the market. If the ticket proves as satisfactory as it is expected that it will, an effort will be made to have all the large roads in the country join the bureau, which issues the tick ets and then there will be but one form of interchangeable mileage ticket on the market. SIX NEW ELEVATORS. Great Northern Erecting Then* o:i the Line in Washington. The six new wheat warehousts, which the Great Northern road is building in the state of Washington, will increase the storage capacity along that line by something like 800,000 bushels. In view of the annually increasing wheat crop in Washington, and the fact that the presence of these mamoth warehouses re-duce the tendency to a car shortage, it was decided to build half a dozen of them, and work was recently begun on them at Edwall, Moscow, Coal Creek, Lamona, Harrington and Wenatchee. They are to be 60x160 feet, and it is expected will be completed in time for the reception of this year's crop, which in some localities has been extraordi narily large. ADDING TO ITS EQUIPMENT. Milwaukee Making Some Important Additions This Full. The Milwaukee road is making some large and important additions to its equipment this fall. The shops at Mil waukee have already turned out and put in service 200 coal cars, 250 palace stock cars ar.d 100 large carriage and furniture cars. They are now engaged in building 1,000 standard box cars, turning them out at the rate of ten a day. These are each of 60,000 pounds capacity and are being used as fast as delivered to handle the grain crop. The Milwaukee has also bought twenty new and very heavy locomo tives. Two of these will be used in the passenger service between Chicago and Milwaukee, wh-re the schedule time Le tween the city limits calls for a speed of 56.4 miles per hour. The other eigh teen engines will be used in hauling heavy freight trains. Lake Rates Advance. News was forwarded to St. Paul yesterday that the lake lines at Buffalo had decided upon an advance of 2ft cents per 100 pounds on the various grain products shipped from Chicago and Duluth to Eastern points. This action has been imminent for some time, and it is supposed that It was taken to corre spond with a slightly smaller advance made recently In the all-rail rate between the points named. The advance goes into effect Oct. 15, by which time it is certain that business will be fairly brisk. N. P. Officials Return Today. President Mellen. Traffic Manager Hanna ford and General Manager Kendriek, of the Northern Pacific road, who have been out on an inspection trip over the line for the past fortnight, are expected 40 reach St. Paul this morning on the Northern Pacific train which pulls in shortly 7 o'clock. Railroad- Notes. Capt. M. M. Wheeler, Rye stock agent of the Omaha road, left yesterday via the Northern Pacific for Miles iClty. Thomas H. Larke, local .^passenger repre sentative of the Duluth, South Shore & At lantic at Duluth, was in St. Paul yesterday. Schuyler Colfax, a scnr.of the vice president, to Gen. Grant, left last night over the Bur lington for South Bend, Indi The Minneapolis & St. Louis transported some forty carloads of 1 people who attended the Sons of Hermann celebration at New Ulm from different points on the line. In the literature of 'the western Passenger association received yestertay there is a warning from Chairman-Caldwell that the pay ment of excessive commissions is sure to result in greatly diminished revenue. The Eastern Minnesota road hauled into the ports at the head of the lake last week in the neighborhood of 5.000 carloads of wheat. Nearly 200 carloads of cattle from the Western ranges passed through St. Paul yes terday en route for the Chicago market.
