FROM TMCBEIW SHOULDERS CHAMBER OF COMMERCE "WOULD LIFT THE BURDEN OF HIRING A LAWYER Resolutions Were Adopted Yester day Protesting' Asalnst the Im position Upon Tlu'iu of the Ne cessity of Securing an Attorney. The chamber of commerce went on rec ord yesterday as opposed to the imposi tion on- the city school teachers of the burden of suing for their salaries ilready ' earned. Gen. Sanborn moved that the cr-smber committee on education try to adjust the trouble without expenFe to the teach ers. Gen Sanborn first suggested that the committee wait on Comptroller McCardy. ascertain from him what his position wa3 and what could be done with, him Said Gen. Sanborn: "Vt'e are all friends of education. We have a good educational law, and the fundamental theory of it is that the city council and the board of education shall be a check upon each other in the man agement of the schools. The duties of the comptroller are purely ministerial, while the re?vonsibility for what is done rests vith the sclfool board. The city attorney should test the case, and not the teachers. In my opinion the action of the school Inspectors is conclusive. The remedy i£ the people, if they do not like the board, is to get an administra tion that will put it out." A. H. Lindeke, who .was In the chair, asked who would intervene if the board should allow double ihe amount of mon ey available? Where was the limit? What redress would the 'city have if the .board had power to make contracts? Gen Sanborn replied that the limit was ' the limit made by the city council. "I do not think the I'-mpt roller has any thing to say until that ilmit is reached. The board has no puwer to bind the city to more money than is raised. The pro vision that the school year shall be ten months is simply to fix the two months in which there shall be no school. Tho burden of fighting- the casa should not ba thrown upon the city employes. The chamber should express the opinion that the comptroller should pay the teachers as long as the money lams. The city is bound in honor to keep tha contracts." Thomas Cochran did not believe there was any use in going to McCardy. He knew what kind of a man McCardy was, and that he would not recede from his position. He suggested that the board of education be o.rged to find out from the city attorney what is the law. They agreed on this resolution, which was adopted: "That the committee on education of this chamber be and are hereby instruct ed to have a conference without delay with the proper authorities of the city of St. Paul, including the board of school inspectors, with the view of having thp comptroller and board of school Inspec tors presented to the district court at the earliest time practicable without expense to the school teachers, or any of them, to the end that said questions may be speed ily decided and the legal rights of the respective departments of the city gov ernment and the persons and individuals affected thereby be defined and finally determined." E. W. Peet, from the committee on mu nicipal affairs, reported statistics of the county's expenditures as follows: Total bonded indebtedness Ramsey county, Dec. SI, 1891 $849 4 CO December 81, 1898 815460 Showing a reduction of $30,000 by retire ment of almshoiiße bonds. Total expenditure of county rev enue fund Dec. 31, 1891 $182 026 December 31 1898 181,621 School district fund, Dec. 31, 1891.. 634 403 Dec. 31, 1898 432,825 Maj. Espy reported from the Fort Snell ing committee, urging the building of a drill hall for winter use, and also that the barracks be increased so as to ac commodate twelve companies of 105 men, instead of only eight companies of sixty five men each. Also that quarters for twelve more officers be constructed. Also in favor of the establishment of a rifle and artillery target range within fifteen miles of the reservation. The state's del egation in congress was also recommend ed to use all proper .efforts to secure the appropriation of $150,000 or as much as may be necessary for these improvements. DRAXK CARBOLIC ACID. Fatal MiKtake of Eva Stleh, Lesa Than Three Years Old. Eva Stich, the two-and-a-half-year-old daughter of Christopher Stich, living at 1199 Beech street, died Monday from the effects of swallowing a quantity of car bolic acid by mistake. The little girl drank the acid Sunday morning. Together with a number of packages purchaetd by Mrs. Stich Sat urday, the bottle containing the poison was left on a kitchen table. Sunday morning the child arose before her par ents and discovered the bottle while playing around the kitchen. Without knowing its deadly nature the child pour ed some of the acid into a glass and drank it. The pain immediately caused the child to scream, when Mr. and Mrs. Stich ran to her assistance. Dr. Spates was called, and, after several hours, suc ceeded in relieving the little one's suffer ing, and It was believed she would re cover. Early Monday morning, however, the child grew worse, and the physician •was again called. He found the child's throat badly congested, and within a short time the arlrj died. Christopher Stich Is employed as a cook at Mieaen's cafe. THE ST. PAUI, GI<OBE, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 1899. LIES AT DEATH'S DOOR MILS. 1.0 l ISK MIHLBERGER, OF ARKWRIGHT STREET, IN A CRITICAL CONDITION ANNA FINK, MIDWIFE, IN JAIL Aute-Miirlrm Statriiirnt Made by Mrs. Mlhlbcrger to County Attor ney Blftelow La«t Mrlu la Said to Implicate Mrs. Pluk In n Crim inal Operation— <Says She Can Prore an Alibi. Mrs. Anna Fink, a midwife living at 810 Blair street, was arrested last evening on a charge of abortion. Mrs. Louise Mihlberger, the woman upon whom Mrß. Fink la alleged to have performed a criminal operation, Is lying at the point of death at the city hospital. Should she die, as the physicians cay she undoubtedly will, the county attor ney will change the charge to man slaughter. Mrs. Mihlberger is a married woman, forty-two years of age, living at 676 Ark wright street. Mrs. Fink denied the ac cusation against her when confronted by the dying woman at the hospital last evening, but in her ante-mortem state ment Mrs. Mihlberger declares Mrs. Fink is responsible for her condition and iden tified her in the presence of County At torney Bigelow, the latter says. Just when Mrs. Fink is alleged to have performed the operation the authorities decline to state, on the ground that mak ing public details of the case will weaken the evidence to be presented against Mrs. Fink. What Induced Mrs. Mihlberger to Beck Mrs. Fink is not clear. She is said to have enjoyed domestic happiness, and is the mother of three children, the eld est a daughter eighteen years of age and the youngest a son ten years old. Ac cording to the authorities, Mrs. Mihl berger called upon Mrs. Fink for advice, when it is alleged the midwife subjected her to an operation. The case did not come to the attention of the authorities until several days after. Last Friday Dr. William Davis, the family physician, was called to see Mrs. Mihlberger, who informed him that she was suffering from a severe cold. The physician prescribed for Mrs. Mihl berger, calling upon her again Saturday and Sunday. On the latter visit he de tected alarming symptoms. He ques tioned Mrs. Mihlberger, when, It is said, the woman informed him what had oc curred. Upon a more careful examina tion Dr. Davis discovered positive symp toms of blood poisoning, and advised Mrs. Mihlberger to consent to being removed to the city hospital. The woman waa taken to the institution Sunday evening. By this time, it is alleged, she had grown rapidly worse. Yesterday her condition became so grave that Dr. Ancker notified the county attorney, informing Mr. Bige low that Mrs. Mihiberger would proba bly not survive the day. To all with whom she conversed about her conditoin, It is alleged Mrs. Alihlberger placed the responsibility upon Mrs. Fink. With this information County Attorney Blgeiow directed the arrest of Mrs. Fink, who was taken In charge at her home, shortly after 6 o'clock last evening, by Capt. Lowell, of the Rondo station. In company with County Attorney Bigelov,-, Assistant County Attorney Zollman and Capt. Lowell, Mrs. Fink was immediately taken to the city hospital, where she was ushered into Mrs. Mlhlberger's pres ence. County Attorney Bigelow says that the dying woman reiterated her accusa tions ag*ainst Mrs. Fink, and positively Identified the midwife as the person who had performed the alleged operation. Mrs. Fink declared she had never seen Mrs. Mihlberger before, and, protesting her Innocence, was led away to* jail, while County Attorney Bigelow proceeded to take Mrs. Mihlberger's ante-mortem statement. This the authorities declined to give out for publication, but they say that it positively accuses Mrs. Fink of performing the operation, specifying the date and the methods alleged to have been by her employed. When seen at the central station by a reporter for the Globe Mrs. Fink was in a state of nervous excitement, repeat edly denying the charge against her. She is nearly sixty years of age and speaks English with difficulty. She asserted that she had never seen Mrs. Mihlberger be fore the visit to the hospital, and declar ed that she could prove that she was out of the city last Thursday. She says she left town at 10 o'clock in the morning I to visit a farmer out on the Dale street road, for the purpose of borrowing mon- I ey. She claims to have been absent until 9 o'clock at night, and says she has a note Bigned in connection with the bor rowed money to prove hor statements. Although arrested on two other occa sions for alleged abortion, and In connec tion with one of the cases charged with manslaughter, Mrs. Fink has never been convicted. Oct. 20, 1897, Mrs. Fink was arrested for performing an alleged crim ir.al operation upon Dorothy Johnson. She was also charged with manslaughter, It being alleged that she killed the young woman's child. She was indicted by the grand jury, but after recovering from her illness the Johnson girl disappeared and Jan. 14, IS9B, the case was nolled. May 27, 180 C, Mrs. Fink was also arrested for alleged abortion. Then, too, she was In dicted, it Is alleged, but this case was also nolled. TO LIFT CHURCH DEBT. Successful Entertainment Given at the First Presbyterian Church. The Christian Endeavor Society of the First Presbyt arian Church gave a Scotoh enteitainment last night, at which Rev. A. B. Meldrum delivered his lecture on "Scotland and the Scots," material for which was gathered in a recent tour through that country. The speaker gave especial attention to the historic city of Edinburgh, and In a graphic manner re counted its past glories. The proceeds of the evening's entertain ment will be devoted to the fund for the liquidation of the church mortgage. There was a large attendance, every seat in the audience room being filled.

WOULDBAVEWETFEET DULUTH A IRON RANGE OBJECTION TO THE STATE'S "SHORT ROUTE" STATE'S SURVEY ATTACKED Attorney KellofffT Say* It Was Made In Midwinter, and That an Exam ination of the Route In Summer Shows That in Twenty-Six Ml lea There Would Have to Be Nine Miles of BrldajM. Arguments in the Duluth & Iron Rang-e land grant case were continued yesterday before Judge Lochren in the United States circuit court. The suit involves a large errant of land claimed by the rail road company, while the state seeks to have the grant set aside on the ground that the road failed to comply with the terms of the grant. The respondents ask that the state be perpetually enjoined from Interfering with them and from sell ing any of the timber on the land in cluded in the grant. Attorney Frank B. Kellogg presented the main argument for the road. He re lated that the state had sent two sur veyors to run a line between Duluth and Basset Lake, which was considered to be the moat direct route. This was in midwinter, IS9S. According to Mr. Kel logg, fully 5 per cent of this line, as sur veyed, ran over marshy land and bogs, on which, he claimed, it was Impossible to construct a road. There was no ex amination for drainage, Mr. Kellogg ar gued, no tests for pits and only nine soundings were taken. Later the railroad company also had this line surveyed. Ccunsel stated that the company's sur veyors found many open lakes on the route, and advanced the opinion that the construction of a road along this survey was impossible. The company's survey ors had avoided the swamps and march's where possible, but, it was claimed, the state surveyors ran lengthwise of these swamps and lakes. On the line of the state survey, Mr. Kellogg declared that, out of twenty-six miles of road, there would haye 1 been necessary nine miles of bridges. In conclusion, Mr. Kellogg declared the contention of the state was a wild, vis ionary scheme. The Duluth & Iron Range road had been in operation fifteen years, he declared, and had fulfilled every re quirement expected of it. Former Attorney General ChllOS pre sented the arguments for the state. He attacked the petition for injunction ask ed by the respondents, asserting that it must fall to the ground, as there had been an absolute failure of proof to sus tain the allegations of the bill. There was no evidence, he said, that any mem ber of the stats timber commission had e-\er made any threat of an intention to interfere with the timber on the grant, pending a Judgment of a court of compe tent Jurisdiction. Mr. Childs contended that the commission had no intention of harassing the respondents with a number of suits, and that no such intention had been shown. With regard to this phase of the case, Mr. Childs claimed the Judg ment of the court should be in favor of the state. The real question at issue according to Mr. Childs, was whether or not the road was entitled to the grant. The state had made no overt act ih this connection, he argued, and there was no evidence to show whether or not there was timber on the land in question. The evidence positively showed, he claimed, that the timber commission never had under consideration the act of 1897. ■ m LIBERAL HOUSEKEEPERS. Buying Watches for Grocery Clerks. The practice adopted by some manu facturers of bribing grocery clerks to sell their particular specialties is open to the gravest objections. It leads to fraud and deceit, whereby customers are fur nished with inferior goods at exorbitant prices, and must destroy the reputation of any store in which it is permitted A sneciraen of this method now em ployed in some towns is particularly dis reputable for all concerned. The manu facturer of a cheap baking powder offers , grocery clerks a present of a g-old watch for Belling his goods. Alum baking pow ders are condemned by physicians as dangerous to health, and in some sections their sale is forbidden by law. Yet in these stores when a housekeeper asks for a baking powder with which she is to make food for her children, the clerk, bribed by the manufacturer, Is permitted by his employer to force upoa her a powder which Is well known to be poi sonous, disguised as a pure and whole some article. The culpability of so heinous an act rests with the manufacturer, the grocer and the clerk. The housewife should find her remedy by taking her patronage to a store where such practices are not tolerated. o _ ON BEARING BRASSES. P. H. Conradson Addresses the Northwest Railway Club. P. H. Conradson, formerly of the Great Northern, addressed the Northwestern Railway club last night in the ordinary of the Ryan hotel on the subject of the micro-structure of bearing metals and al loys. Prof. Conradson is chief of the bu reau of tests and chemist of an oil com pany at Franklin, Pa., which deals ex clusively in railroad supplies. He is wide ly recognized as an authority on metal lurgy, and his lecture, which was illus trated with a stereoptlcon, was of much value to the club and its guests. Among those present were motive power men, mechanics, employes of the test depart ments, purchasing agents and civil en gineers representing every railroad en tering the cities. A number of well known Minneapolis railroad men. were present. The lecture was technical In Its nature and dealt with the utility and practical value in mechanics of bearing metals and alloyed metals used for the same purpose. The different forms of bras 3 were given especial attention and pic tures of magnified sections of the metal, prepared under different systems, were thrown on the screen. The use of the other common "bearing" metals was dis cussed at length, showing the manner In which the most valuable of the metals are prepared for use. Many views of sections prepared for tests and subjected to different treatments to determine their value, made the discussion interesting. FOR FASTER MAILS. Project to IlrliiK Twin City Mails Via Cape Breton. It is reported that the Soo and Ca na.dian Pacific are backing a movement to have European mails brought to St. Paul direct, saving sixty , hours on the present method of distribution.

SEEMEDTEMVAS ONE BILL THAT HAD BEEN R.IISED PASSED ON A LOCAL CON FECTIONER STRANGER WAS UNDAUNTED Saergrefitlon That the Bill Had Some thing the Matter With It Met With a l.iiiiKh by the Stranger, and Its False PretenMions Were Not Discovered Until the Next Day. It behooves storekeepers throughout the city to be on their guard against swindlers who are operating? hero with bogus money. The swindlers are not taking any chances with counterfeit coin, but are passing what purport to be $10 currency bills, but which are in reality fl bills raised to the denomination of $10. The alterations of the bills are cleverly executed, denoting a master hand at the business and at night, tha time selected by the swindlers to pass the bills, can scarcely be detected upon closa examina tion. From the nature of the first local caso that has come to the knowledge of Government Inspector Lawrence, it is be lieved the swindlers are the same that re cently flooded St. Louis, Mo., with the raised $1 bills and who are reported to have operated to some extent in the smaller Minnesota towns. The only person who has as yet report ed having been victimized by the "raised" bills is Mrs. F. Chandler, who conducts a confectionery store at 411 West Seventh street. Mrs. Chandler accepted one of the bills from a stranger Monday evening. The fraud was jiscovered yesterday, when she at once reported the case to Inspector Lawrence. The fellow who passed the bill wag evidently used to "shoving the <iueer" as hi 3 complacency was in no way disturbed when it wa3 suggested that the bill was probably counterfeit. He laughed at the sugges tion, advised Mrs. Chadler to closely ex amine the money and anally induced her to give him $10 in change. He was a young man wearing dark clothes and a brown derby hat. He was smooth faced and possessed a florid complexion. He entered the store shortly after 8 o'clock, whijc several persons were in the place, and •without desiring to make a purchase, asked Mrs. Chandler to change a $10 till for him. Mrs. Chandler told him that she did not like to make change, fearing that she might accept counterfeit money. The stranger laughingly tendered her the bill he held in his hand, telling her to ex amine it and that If It was counterfeit, she need not change it. Mrs. Chandler's daughter held the bill up to the light, and noticing ths genuine thread lines, told her mother that the money was un questionably good. Mrs. Chandler there fore gave the stranger $10 in change and he left. Yesterday morning Mrs. Chandler ten dered the bill to J. P. Whitewell, to be credited on a cigar account. Mr. While well noticed something wrong about the bill and finally discovered that it was a raised $1 bill. Along the bottom of the bill are miniature dollar marks that the swindlers had not taken care to efface. These fell under the eye of Mr. White well and disclosed the fraud. The bills used in the "raising" opera tions are of the 1300 issue. On either slda ore two large Si marks, while in the four corners, on both fides are smaller marks of the same kind. The alterations are made by marking a cipher on very thin green silk and pasting the slip over the fl mark so that the original mark, on the bill showing through, while the cipher on the silk fitting close the $1 mark, gives the bill every appearance of a $10 denomination. m CORA MAY'S MANNING. It Had Been Done Too Numerously, Husband No. I Thought. Because the plaintiff averred that his wife was the possessor of two husbands, Judge Lewis yesterday, in the district court, ordered findings for the plaintiff in the case of Charles Chastine Manning vs. Cora May Manning. The former al leged adultery as the ground for the complaint. The Mannings were married in Bur lington, 10., Nov. 21, 1893, and lived to gether until September, 1895, when they separated by mutual consent after com ing to St. Paul, where Manning, who is a dentist, opened an office at Seventh and Wabasha streets. Dr. Manning Is twenty-eight years old arid his wife six years younger. In court Dr. Manning was represented by Percy Godfrey, of Barton & Godfrey, and the defendant by H. B. Farwell. Dr. Manning testified that he had been married to Cora May Frayer, and that in September, 1895, they had separated by mutual agreement. Afterwards she came to St. Paul, and the witness understood that she had been married at Hudson. He had frequently seen his wife with the man he supposed to be her second hus band. Attorney Farwell cross-examinted the witnesses for the plaintiff, but Intro duced no testimony. "You may draw up findings for the plaintiff," said Judge Lewis sententious ly to Attorney Godfrey. METHODIST PASTORS GUESTS. Reception at the Bates Avenue Church by Kpworth League. A reception was tendered the Methodist ministers of the city last evening by the Epworth League City union, at the Bates Avenue M. E. church. Rev. F. M. Rule, presiding elder of the St. Paul district, and Dr. Robinson, district president of the Kp worth league, delivered addresses.
