IXSFRANCE COMIWISSIOXERS.
They Will ?leei and Adopt Resolu
tions of Idore or Lb— Importance.
The National Association of Insurance
Commissioners reassembled at the Ryan
yesterday morning at II o'clock. A gen
eral discussion of insurance matters was
opened and several resolutions were pre
sented and passed upon.
The following resolution was adopted,
that the interests of the insuring public re
quire that assessment insurance companies
«.hould not be permitted to do business after
they become unable to meet and make pay
ment of the minimum of their certificates.
A resolution was alsojadopted condemning
the practice of insuring property without
inspection and appraisal, the lack of
discrimination in the character of risks and
grading rates, and the absence of regula
tins in the construction of buildings in the
ordinances of most of our cities, and the
laxity with which such laws are regarded
where they do exist.
A resolution to the effect that guarantee
or surety companies, when reporting lia
bilities ror unearned premiums, should be
required to include in that item the pro rata
portion of all gross premiums on risks hav
iisir more than one year to run. or furnish
schedules of securities held to indemnify
themselves in the case of each bond issued,
was referred, as was a resolution in regard
to the rate of interest, • hich was referred to a
special committee, with orders to report at
the next meeting.
A change in the annual statement blank
of assessment life insurance companies in
respect to the contingent assets aud liabili
ties was suggested and referred to the ap
priate committee.
Alter electing the following officers for
the ensuing year, the convention adjourned
to meet the third Wednesday in September
of next year at Niagara Falls. President.
John K. Tarbox, Massachusetts; vice presi
dent, Samuel Cross. Rhode Island; secre
tary, H. B. Briukerholf, Ohio.
OPEN CAIII'HHE. >
Grand Army Men Who Went to the
Encampment at San Francisco.
The members of Acker post. G. A. R., j
enjoyed an open camphre last evening and (
listened to comrades who made the trip to ]
California to attend the annual encamp
ment. A large number of the wives, sons j
-.and daughters of the comrades were pres
ent. Commander Braclen presided. Capt. ]
J. J. MoOardy, who was one of the dele- 3
gates from the post, gave a very «
interesting account ©f the trip to (
San Francisco and of the generous
hospitality with which the old soldiers were
received there, Gen. Daniel Fish, adjutant
general of the state O. A. R., also gave i
Borne incidents of the trip, and was fol
lowed by Judge Ray, or Minneapolis, who 1
spoke in the same line. Rev. Clay Mc-
C&uley briefly returned thanks to the gen- <
tlemen for their entertain reports, and <
the formality of a meeting was then broken
that all might devote themselves to coffee !
and hard-tack, the standard G. A. R. lunch. :
An hour was pleasantly spent in discussing
these delicacies. " !
"THE FLIBT.^
The Florences Present Their Sew i
flay at the Grand.
Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Florence appeared ;
before a St Paul audience for the first time
last night in their new play, "The Flirt," ;
People who have been accustomed to see
ing Mr. Florence in the character which he
has made, famous, such as Bardwell Slote*
Pinto Perkins and Cap'n Cuttle, scarcely
recognize him as Sparks, the swell lover. '
But there is no cln^s ef dramatic work in i
which Mr ; Pitman does not acquit '
himself creditably. And the same mny be
truthfully said of Mrs. Florence. Their
characters in the new play tit them like
tailor- wade garments. Mrs. Florence plays ■
th* part of the dashing widow, not so er- .
atio as Mrs. Gen. Gllfleury, nor such a :
hobby rider as Miss Matilda Starr, brtt still .
an excellent opportunity for that display of
KprynesH and jollity which characterizes all
of her acting. The play was intended to ,
be a vehicle for the presentation of the
talents of the Florences, and it
answers the purpose admirably. The i
piece is lively from end to
end and is bound to have a good run. eTh
audience was kept laughing through every
act. A good hit was made by Mr. Flor
ence, when, in describing to the widow the
statuary he saw in Rome, he struck the at
titude of "lguatius Defying the Whole
Creation." The introduction of an after
dinner sons Is a new feature in the Flor
ence performances, or rather the revival of
au odd one, for thr*re w«s a time when Mrs.
Florence was a noted singer* Th« song, ,
"Lk«a't Puil Too Far fro*» Shore, ?J is a :
clever one, and reoeived an encore. The
play give* Mr*. Florence an opportunity to
display someoi the gorgeous dress of which
she ha* a full stove. The part that Mr.
Florence plays i* entirely different from his
former creations, but b equally as amusing;.
The .new play received a very hearty wel
come last night. The entire company sus
taiued their individual parts admirably, and
ctm.siilerlna that this was only the fourth
time that the performance has Deen pre«
sented- to the public everything moved
along with remarkable smoothness. To
nieUt "The Mighty Dollar," Saturday mati
nee ♦•The Flirt" will be repeated, and Sat
urday night "Douibey & Sun."' Sale of
seats for "Mixed Pickles" begins this morn
ing.

ATTEMPTED ROBtfIBRY.
William Vpion Knocked Down oh
th« Street, But His fffouejr \\uh %o%
Taken.
At 8 o'clock last night William Upton,
while passing along East Seventh street,
between Forest and Reaney streets, was \
assaulted by a highwayman. The fellow
struck Upton a stunning blow on the eye
with a stone which laid him partially un
conscious on the sidewalk. A hasty ex
amination of Upton's pockets was
made by the robber, but approaching pe
destrians scared him and he ran throug h a
lumberyard and escaped. Upton was.
taken to Dr. Post's otliea and his wound
dressed. He claimed to have been robbed
of S6O, but on searching his pockets the
mosey was found, the thief having over
looked it. Upton describes his assailant as
about five feet six inches in height, smooth
face and dressed fn black coat, gray trous- ;
ers and black slouch hat.
Changes in Mail Service.
Important changes are to be made soon
in th« carrying of malls between St. Paul;
and Northwestern points. . Full mail ear*, !
fifty feet long, will be put on the Northern j
Pacific between this city and Mtmrtau. to
bti gird instead of Hie half cars how in ser- ;
vice. Day mails will also be run between
St. Paul and Fargo and on the Brecken
ridge division of the Manitoba road as far
as Morris, the present terminus of the day
trains. The change will necessitate a num
'< ber of changes in the railway clerks, and
will go into effect in tbe course of a few
weeks.
Wants more Court House.
Tnere is a general feeling among the tax
payers that there should be another story on
the building. The rooms are now all taken
ami the iu>.*>ds of th« city and county de
mand more room. The law library and the
public library could bo located there; and
the engineers want more room. With this,
the four stories would be completely filled.
The architect informs us that the symmetry
of the building would not be much inter
fered with. We have a building so far that
is a beauty, and built strong aud solid, and
the feeling of every taxpayer is to have it
completed so that it shall be a joy forever,
and not be completed to commence patch
ing on this noble structure in three years.
Let's have the building finished in the most
approved manner. And any man who
wants such a building finished in pine,
should move to Minneapolis. The commis
sion appointed are the most worthy men in
the city, and not one dollar of the funds
will be stolen, and with this fact, the feel
ing of every taxpayer is to have a good
buildinpr. even if the amount should have to
be doubled. The. commission meets to>
morrow to decide the question. By all
means let's have a good builtlinir.

Ignatius Donnelly Says He is Be
tween the Devil and the. Deep Sou.
The scowl of battle had about faded from
the placid brow of Ignatius Donnelly when
the sun went down last night, and across
his rHddy features there was wafted
a light that was not all of earth.
Into the sage's face there stole a look
such as comes to the tired school boy who
has fished all day through brake
and bush, until, his linos entangled
and his worms all gone, while not a min
now lies within his basked, he puts his
pole across bis shoulder and dreaming of
bed time, starts across the meadow for his
home. For days the author of "Atlantis" had
lashed the water with his line and changed
his hook and spat upon his bait, but. last
night his basket was empty, and sage and
philosopher at once, he abandoned the
. stream that seemed to have been fished dry
before him, and in the fading day he re
solved within himself that he would go to
his books at Xiuiugei. It could not be
expected that the heavy tossing within the
breast of Ignatius would cease with the
dying of the wind that roused it.
"I am between the devil and the deep
sea," he said to a Globe reporter.
"The third party convention has indorsed
Dr. Ames and John Frank. I was in favor of
McGill, not that personally I did not prefer
Ames, but I felt that the Democrats hud
treated the farmers badly and the Republican
convention had treated the farmers hand
somely in the convention and platform, and
that we owed them some gratitude. Ido not
want to bolt my own convention, and I don't
want to support Kelly and Doran and Jim
Hill. .1 propose to go home and devote my
self to my books and let the molasses run."
Being asked what the convention meant
by indorsing the minority committee re
port, Mr. Donnelly said that that report
was written by him and contained no at
tack on Dr. Ames, and the convention's ac
tion meant . that personally they preferred
Awes, but they felt grateful to the Repub
licans for the noble platform they had
adopted. .. ;
Mr. Donnelly returns home to-morrow
noon.

He Says the swede Element Will
H«»ent the Insult-
Frank N. Peterson, a prominent lumber
merchant of Franconia, Chisago county,
and a man who has been a citizen of Min
nesota for more than twenty-six years,
was met by a Globe reporter yesterday,
Mr; Peterson was the dark horse who was
to be brought out tor nomination as secre
tary of state by the McQill leaders as a
representative of the Swede '.faction, but
after the second ballot, Fletcher & Co. be
came frightened and cut Mr. Peterson's i
throat, and took a mean advantage of his
friends bys printing Hans Mattson on* the
oonveutlon for that bftice. The result of
this subtle move Was to madden Mr. Peter
son and his friends. .Mr, 5 - Peterson, in
an interview, said yesterday: ' •■'
"1 have lived in Minnesotajmore than tweu
ty-six years. I have traveled all over the
stute. I have lived la Washington county
and in Chisago county, and 1 know a trood
many people. I have an . influence with my
friends, and that influence will bo felt at the
polls. Hans Mattsou is no representative of
the Swedish element and they will repudiate
him at the election, you : mark my word. .. I
have no favors to ask of the MoGill gang; I
have a business that necessitates ray close at
tention, but my friends were ignored
through my treatment in that convention,
and I want it understood that I shall work
for Dr. Ames from this time until the close
of this campaign, and I can guarantee that
ho will get a splendid majority in my county,
which is strongly republican. And I will get
him a pile of votes in Washington county,
Ames will surprise them all, and he will get
a vote in the Fifth district that will make
them all weary. He will get the election as
sure as you live."

The Itasca club held ft very enthusiastic
meeting last evening. While it was pro-
Krussiu-' Mr. P. H. Kelly entered the nail,
and introduced the delegates to the con
gressional convention to be held at Minne
apolis next Wednesday. He stated to the
members of the club that the delegates had
just held a meeting, and had determined to
go up to the convention on the 11 o'clock
train Wednesday forenoon, and that, if
agreeable, they would like to have the
Itasca club accompany them. It was
voted to go Id a body, and a committee
consisting of Messrs. lyes, McCafferty,
Lynch and Davidson was appointed to ar
range matters. A resolution offered by Mr.
McCafferty, strongly indorsing Hon. Ed
mund Rice for congress, was adopted amid
much enthusiasm, after which the meeting
adjourned till 10 o'clock next Wednesday
morning.
A DIK'FV SCHEME
Concocted by Republicans to Har
as* .Tiny or Ames and lIU Canva»«.
It has leaked out that certain unscrupu
lous Republican leaders have conceived
plans to injure Mayor Ames in his candidacy
for governor, which indicate the line of at
tack that will be employed to place him in
a false position before the people. Agents
have been employed to work up and even
manufacture evidence tendine to show that
the police force has either been in collusion
with the criminal classes or has
at least afforded protection by
failing to make arrests upon proper evi
dence. The idea of all this scheming has
been that Mayor Ames, as chief executive
of the city, could be held responsible
for the actions of his subordinates to an
extent that would warrant the grand jury
in finding an indictment against him. The
grand jury happens to be composed princi
pally of Republicans, some of whom, it was
hoped, would be sufficiently rabid in their
political hatred, to countenance the actions.
The hired tools employed to do
TtfE DIRTY PART
of the work, after Jiuntinir industriously
over a week, secured what they thought
was sufficient evidence to make a showing.
The grand jury adjourned to meet again
Monday, when the effort to obtain an in
dictment against the mayor was to be
made. The plot came to a standstill yes
terday, when County Attorney Davis, who
had made au examination of the cases, pro
nounced them to be simply rubbish,
and too frivolous to take up the
time of the jury. This has proved
an effective quietus, the county
attorney preventing the courts being made
the means of political tricksters to blacken
Mayor Ames' character. The scheme un
doubtedly was to have a sensational arrest
made and heralded through the Republican
press, besides detaining and hampering the
mayor in the vigorous campaign he con
templates making. While it has probably
failed, it is sufficient to indicate to what
lengths unprincipled Republican leaders are
willing to goto compass the defeat of the
Democratic candidate for governor.
