Bnntz > anil lliaer Protested Against Actionßejection o£ Bids Seemed Only Solu tion of Difficulty. The purchase of about $4,000 worth of paint^for the high bridge, long a matter of considerable controversy between indi vidual members of the two council bodies, was settled last night by the board of aldermen agreeing to the as sembly resolution to.reject all bids and advertise for new ones. In view of the fact that the bids were the lowest on record, the majority of the board were reluctant to reject them, . but the discussion which ensued broad ened .into a controversy that threatened to become personal, and as a way out of the difficulty it was finally agreed to drop the whole thing. The whole affair hinged on whether it was business to give the contract to the National Paint company, of Philadelphia, as the lowest bidder, or encourage home industry by giving the job to T. L. Blood & Co. Aid. Bants raised a slight breeze by claiming that both the Commercial club and the Chamber of Commerce had at tempted to mix in the controversy, but he was promptly called by Thomas Cochrane, of the Chamber, and President B( ardman, of the Commercial club, who denied any activity. Aid. Ulmer char acterized the rejection of the Phila delphia company's bid as a disgrace, and against all business principle. In the vote taken Aid. Ulmer and Bantz were the only ones who failed to register themselves irt* favor of reject ing all the bids. ANDREW GROCERY GO.

SNELIING A ...CHIEF STATION. Talk of It Being Made Such, Though ... Officer.s ...Oppose. • It is understood that certain-army of ficers of high rank and influence will op pose the selection of Port Sneliing as one of the four chief military stations of the country, on the grounds that the winters here are altogether too severe for a great many of the soldiers and officers, who have spent' nearly all their lives in the South. All the other accommodations, however, ''such' as" transportation facili ties, etc., are considered excellent, and Fort Sneliing ' stands a i good chance of being made one of the four stations. Gen.

Man Who Broke Reformatory Parole Caught in Jersey. Nels Hanson, • twenty-seven years old, who is wanted for breaking parole from the state reformatory at ' St. Cloud spent yesterday at the central station! and was taken to St. Cloud by a deputy at the reformatory last evening. Dep uty Warden "John - Glenrion, of Stillwater prison, brought Hanson to St. Paul yes terday morning from "Newark, N. J Deputy Glennon was East enjoying his vacation, when he ran across Hanson and brought him back. - Hanson has served a four-year term in the New Jer sey penitentiary for burglary, since he broke his parole and left Minnesota; Divorce .Case Dismissed. Judge Jaggard yesterday dismissed the suit for a divorce brought by Lydia Cobb against Hiram Cobb. Mrs. Cahffe, who is now Mrs. Cobb, was divorced by her husband in Wisconsin, but the attorneys held that the divorce was not legal by reason of certain delinquencies in serv ing the complaint. Taking this for a basis, it was argued that the marriage between Mrs. and Mr. Cobb was invalid, and Judge Jaggard sustained the argu ments and dismissed the case on the mo tion of the plaintiff's counsel. - - _ • ■ - «• Butcher Has No License.

THE ST. PAUL GLOBE, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 23, 1901. BOTH SIDES BITTER SUIT FOR DAMAGES FOR ALLEGED DEFAMATION OF CHARACTER . RESULT OF NEIGHBORHOOD ROW Evidence of Such a Character That Court Requests Women to f. Withdraw — Other Court News. . . • • ■■,■■-•-... Judge Lewis and jury, and . a . court room full of curiosity seekers, were en gaged yesterday*in j hearing the evidence In a J suit | for $5,000 damages for alleged defamation of character, growing out of a neighborhood row. ■..- ■ " Martha Lehman is the plaintiff in the case and is seeking to recover the above amount from her next door neighbor on Rondo street, Peter Galles, a railroad man. .-.•■■•" ~ . -*•»"*- The evidence was of such a character that Judge Lewis ordered the court room cleared of minors, * and suggested to the women who are called as witnesses; that they retire to the jury room. . These or ders did not have the effect of driving away, the large number of women who were gathered to hear the suit, how ever. - If Mrs. Lehman's charges are true as to what Galles said to her, her character must certainly have suffered somewhat with anyone, who heard the lively conver. sation. On the other hand, if the defend ant's statements are to be believed the plaintiff has been guilty of using lan guage unfit for . publication, and has ap* plied several unmentionable names to the defendant. A son of Galles, who was called as a witness in the case, said to the Globe: "She is suing my father for saying things about her that she said about him, and lots of us heard her, too," and . that is about the way the case stands, and the jury will evidently have plenty of testimony to'consider in decid ing whether or not Mrs. Lehman's char acter was defamed. cf;■''";:'" .--.''■ Emil G. Gustafson, a young man who is a barber, living at present in Minne apolis, stated that upon his own knowl edge Mr. Galles was "a perfect gentle man." Gustafson objected somewhat to a number of queries put by the plaintiffs attorney, and replied to more than one question by expressing a, doubt as to whether his movements were any of the attorney's business. Judge Lewis admonished the witness to confine himself to yes or no, and to answer questions that were proper. The barber knew Galles at St. James,. and had met him on the street and in a bar ber shop, but refused to say where else, and left the stand after a futile attempt to get something tangible out of him. Matilda Heising, who admitted that she lived in the neighborhood, but scornfully answered that she had no acquaintance with the plaintiff and that she did not know anyone who knew her, was on the stand when an adjournment was taken. NEWS FROM THE COURTS. Nettie J. Bloom, a laundress, while em ployed by the Yellowstone Park associa tion, lost two of her fingers in a piece of laundry machinery, and has begun suit against the association for $10,000 dam ages. • In the case of Joseph Mollner against the Soo Line for damages sustained by reason of the alleged negligence of the road, Judge Lewis yesterday ordered a verdict for the defendant, fixing the amount of damages at $2,000.

Because the St. Paul Title and Tiust company would not put a proper heating plant in the old Kittson residence Mrs. Martha- Brandt states in her complaint that she lost all her boarders, and wants damages to the extent of $2,630 from the company. .- • ■. She alleges that during the first winter, she lived in the house the mercury went down inside to a degree of coldness equal to that outside. The second winter the defendant put in a second heating ap paratus which was not much better, and this year she proposes to have heat or some of the company's money. She states that the defendant agreed to put in a suitable plant, and that she was to pay $125 a month rent. She claims to have lived up to her part of the contract, and as the defendants have failed to fulfill theirs, she wants damages. . TALLY-HO TIPPED OVER.

PRODUCE VERY HIGH MARKED INCREASE IN THE PRICES 0»« MANY STAPLE ;ff ; M ARTICLES 30 PER CENT ABOVE LAST YEAR Poor' Crops* in. Many Sections of the Country Cause Advance in Price* of Apiilc*- lOk'K'w and Other »y Necessities. _ - Prices for produce are considerably higher this year than they have been for a long time. The main cause of this gen eral advance in- prices Is; the poor * crops In many sections of the. country. While no section has suffered a complete failure, yet many localities. have so. suffered from the poor crops that they are compelled to go into the market to purchase things for home consumption which they have: placed on the market in other years. The advance in-prices over last year ranges from 10 to 30 per cent. ' Apples are a failure In many. sections of the country this year. Especially is this- true in the New England states and ia all the Northern states. The Northern •apple crop this year, taken as a whole, Is a failure. New York and Michigan are both in the market to purchase apples for' their own consumption, \ while % last 5 ear they placed thousands of barrels on the market. While the crop in the : North has been poor, the . South j has made -up for the! shortage, and Southern Missouri arid' Arkansas have a large supply. . But the South cannot keep the prices j from advancing, and apples that last year sold for $2.50 per barrel this year find a ready market at $3.50. There Is no prospect of a decrease in prices on apples before an other crop is harvested, . and those, who buy will be compelled to pay high prices for them. , *y Not only in those articles which are raised by the farmer, and which are sub ject-to climatic conditions, is there a marked increase in price, but.the increase seems to be general in all lines.of prod uce. Eggs are higher than they have been for years, and never has the storage supply been opened so early in the sea son as has been the case this year. Sev eral different reasons have been suggest ed for this condition, but they are sub stantially the same. Some think that the high price, of. meat which obtained throughout the summer/months caused an unusual'demand for live poultry, and this in turn. caused large numbers of hens to be sold for.: market instead of being kept for laying purposes. Whether this is true or not is of little moment. It re mains a fact that prices for eggs are high for this season of the year, and the indi cations are for still further advances. The California fruit which Is on the market is also high, lemons and oranges having materially advanced in the last few days. The first of the California walnuts will be on the market this morn ing, a carload having just arrived. They will be sold. for. more money than could have been secured for them at this time last year. ' .. i While prices are high for all kinds of produce, yet the quality of that which is on the market is fully up to the standard of previous years, and there is no danger of a shortage. The conditions that are now in existence have been in effect all summer, and yet there has not been a time "when any of the local'"wholesale men were compelled, to back order their goods. ' There is one exception to the general run of high prices this year. That ex ception is sweet potatoes. They have sold ever since they came on the market for less than were the current prices last year. The reason for this condition lies in the fact that they are a Southern crop, and in the South crops have been good this year. They were advanced 50 cents a barrel i yesterday, and still fur ther advances are in sight. RECRUITS FOR THE NAVY OPPORTUNITIES OFFERED THOSE .... A, AMBITIOUS TO BE SAILORS.

The raid occurred just at a busy hour in | the 1 evening, when Nicollet avenue . travel is the heaviest. The street for a block was a congested mass of humanity. The patrol wagon made three round trips and carted away,in the neighborhood of $1,500 worth of gambling furniture. ; The raid was caused by Mrs. Davidson, who alleges that her son, who is an ele vator operator at the Eastman block, had been frequenting the place and had lost money, there. A few days ago she called up one of the proprietors of the gambling house and asked for an interview- with him at her home. This was granted, and then she made a verbal complaint to him.

The proprietor of the place I also agreed to pay back any reasonable ! claim the woman might make, but she I refused both propositions. The issuance ' of the complaints yesterday was the first ', intimation that was given that Mrs. Da vidson bore any further ill-will against j the gamblers. JOURNEY UP THE NILE DR. WRIGHT GIVES INTERESTING LECTURE ON GLORIES OF EGYPT Customs and Costumes of Land of the Lotus Graphically Pictured by One Who Knows ■ Them Well. Dr. John Wright, Egyptologist and rec tor of St. Paul's church, took a large, audience, assembled at the People's church, last evening, on a fascinating journey up the Nile. . The lecture.' was. the first in a series on "Egyptology," to be delivered by Dr. Wright for the bene fit of the free dispensary. : The auspicious opening night • promises well for the course and for the beneficiary. A , most delightful cicerone, the. lecturer ignored the guide books, so the Sphinx and the pyramids were less largely dwelt upon than the small details in the life of the natives; public edifices were not so often" pointed out as native customs and native" costumes. , yt_ '- .-„ --^ . The journey began at Port Said, "the wickedest place in the world," and ended at the farthest cataract.._'■ Excellent pictures, made from photographs taken by Dr. Wright himself during his fre quent trips to Egypt, enlivened the lec ture and made the journey doubly realis tic. The tourists were '- not allowed to linger long at Port Said. They paused for some time at Cairo, however, long enough to admire some of the mosques, the bazars and bits of old Cairo. Dr. Wright stated that if ever . Cairo were destroyed. Egyptology would examine with interest the stones imbedded in the public buildings, for many of these are known to contain inscriptions that would probably . throw light on ancient Egyp tian history. A picture was shown of the Mosque of Mohammed f and views of the interior, among . them the famous prayer niche was. also . given. The university mosque, with a picture of the students at work, was • interesting because of its complete contrast to a modern institution of learning. The bazaars were shown with their fascinating display of goods that play havoc with the money of the tour ists. f .:-A.':AIA~"- ' - '-kl\k ■- -. .-'." The Koptics, Dr. Wright stated, were the most progressive people of Egypt. There are about 250,000 of these people to be found in the "land of the lotus," and they represent the highest type .of people there. A picture was shown of the Kop 7 tic cathedral. The Palace hotel in Cairo was presented as a specimen of Sara cenic -architecture as contrasted with Egyptian architecture. \ The house of the French ambassador was shown. Dr. Wright stated that the home of the Amer ican consul, like the homes- of other American consuls and ambassadors in other parts of the world, was too shabby to be ; pictured. The papyrus plant was shown and a bit of its history was given. The lecturer stated that this plant no longer grows in Egypt, but is cultivated in ancient Syracuse. It is used chiefly to repair the ancient, papyrus in mu seums and libraries.
