MINNEAPOLIS EVENTS- Ehe Largest Crowd of the Season Expected to Visit the Exposition To-Day and To-Night. Theodore Thompson Thinks Himself in Disreputable Tactics of an Evening Paper. The Minneapolis Team Willing to Play Ball Some More — The Police Pay Roll. Handsome Girls at the Orphans' Fair --The Lewis- Plummer Case --Other News. THIS WILL END IT. me Closing Day of Hie Exposition— To->ig:ht*« Burlesque Council. The thirty-sixth and last day of the first Minneapolis Industrial exposition has come. Just fifteen hours more in which to view the great enterprise. The six weeks have sped by like a dr^am. and the end has come at last. It is the earnest determina nation of everybody connected with and interested in the Exposition to make the last day memorable, and it is confidently expected that the steady stream of visitors will rill the building as it has never been filled before. Additional entrances, with turnstiles, have been arranged for the accommodation of the expected throng. Nearly every manufac turing establishment in the city will give its employes a half holiday, and in many cases will supply them with admission tickets. All wholesale establishments will close earlier than usual to afford attaches the opportunity to turn out, so there seems no limit to the crowd that may be present. to-night's caknival will be a fitting finale, and will begin pre cisely at 9 o'clock. In the early evening the corridors will be cleared, and incoming visitors will be assigned places from which they can view the pageant and not be in the way. The "Veiled Exhibitors" and the"Nicotine club"will form the procession, which will be over six hundeed strong, headed by a platoon of police and the Mexi can band. Costumes of the most unique and gorgeous character will be worn, while the comical will have a large share. This will really be the first Mardi Gras event of the Northwest and will probably be only the inception of an interesting series. A special musical program will be rendered by the Mexican band and the festivities will be continued until exactly midnight, when the lights will be whistled out and the big show will be over. It is probable an impromptu show by the directors will be given just before the close, but ' the details are an inviolable secret. NOTES, Monday evening the Minneapolis Fine Arts society will give a reception in the art de partment to Alfred Bierstadt and Prof. Bradiord, the celebrated painters. The Exposition reporters feel like clubbing together and presenting Maj. Gore with a house and lot. The major is linked energy and good nature*loug drawn out. Supt. L. Metesser was yesterday presented •with an eleprant gold watch and chain by the exhibitors In the machinery department. Too evening fireworks displays draw out large crowds. Chief of Pyrotechnics W. E. Steele is in charge of the display. Tbe employes yesterday presented Treas urer R. R. Scott with a handsome pair of diamond cuff bottons. Prof. William Bradford will deliver several Arctic lectures at the Church of the Redeemer next week. Manager Hibbard mar surprise the crowd, to-night, with a vocal solo. He is a man of 6urp rises. Next week, the East sido may devote itself wholly to D. M. dough and other political snbjects. Yesterday's attendance was yery large hnd steady, the building being well filled at all times. •:••"" A. L. Lewis will take the Mexican band to Duluth on Monday week. WANTS TO GO TO HE A VEX. A Man Driven Crazy by a Teni pe»tuouk Political meeting. Theodore Thompson, a laundryman re siding with his wife and child at 1911 Bluff street, was arraigned in the probate court yesterday, where his sanity was to be passed upon. Thompson appeared very melancholy, and his brother and wife testi fied that for a long time he had been mo rose and down-hearted. Mrs. Thompson said that since the Prohibition meeting at Peterson's hall, some time ago, when the Republicans came in and broke it up. her husband had been thinking and talking of heaven and the best way to get there. At the Third precinct station, where he was confined Thursday night, he prayed long and earnestly that his baby boy might be honest and never become a politician. He also thought he was in heaven, and so in formed the sergeant in charge. He was or dered committed. COSE 4G41.V Disreputable Tactics to Create False Impressions by Wholesale Lyins. The Minneapolis Evening Journal with its usual unfairness comments upon the Globe's expose of the untruthfulness of the grand jury's report by saying: "It is the frequent release of confidence men and thieves and criminals of that class without giving their victims an opportunity to appear against them, and the collection of money from such prisoners, without account ing for it. of which the grand jury especially complains." Now the grand jury's statement makes no more explicit charge in regard to "confi dence men, and thieves and criminals" then it says: I "Criminals are released upon the request of criminals, and the voice of the gambler appears to be more potent at the city . prison than the judgment of the court." With all due respect to the grand jury, it should be considered that it receives largely ex parte testimony, in other words, it hears one side of a story. It listeus to the com plainant and not to the defendant. In dis secting the report of the jury, the Globe found that the two explicit statements con tained iv it were in direct contradiction to the existing facts, viz., as to the record kept of arrests, and the releases made. The Journal, prejudiced and malicious as it is. tacitly acknowledges the mistake of the jury. It. however, proceeds to assume that the indirect charges made in the re port are true. Nothing is given in support of this alleged truthfulness of these charges further than the statements in a report that has been shown to be untruth ful and in con tradition to sworn testimony of witnesses. It is understood very readily just why this "terrific arraignment" is made at this particular time. It is understood quite as well why a committee of the council proceeds at this particular time to charge that police officers have been allowed to draw pay while on vacations — in the face, too, of the fact that such vacations have been* allowed in obedience to a custom that has been ob served for years and which applies to other officials of both the city and county govern ment with equal effect It is . understood that this is all done for political effect to in jure the candidacy of Mayor Ames for gov ernor. While it is so understood none ap preciate the unworthiness and cowardice of such despicable attacks upon the reputa tion of Minneapolis and its officials better than the Evening Journal and the Pillsbury wheat ring, which seeks to divert public attention from its schemers for plunder by crying "fire" in another direction. MINNEAPOLIS FOURTH In the League Race— Forfeited and Protested Ganies—To-day's Ben efit. The Minneapolis ball team went out with the expectation of playing the first of the final series of three games with Milwaukee, yesterday afternoon, but at 3:30 the Cream City team had not appeared, and the game •was given to Minneapolis. Later, Manager Whitconib received a ldtter from Manager Sullivan, saying: "My expenses were great and I concluded to disband and for feit the three games to you. Hope you •wont think hard of me." The city had been billed for these games, which were pait of the regular revised schedule, agreed to at the time of the last Minneapolis game in Milwaukee. They will make Minneap olis' record stand 33 won, 43 lost, and give the team the fourth place in the list. The protested game with Duluth has been' given to Duluth on a techni cality and is included in the 43 lost games. The facts, as appears from the statements of the team and from the Duluth papers, are these: Umpire Tindill was in toxicated that day — Wednesday— and came upon the Held in that condition. Min i neapolis entered a protest against his um piring, but its telegram to Quin was not answered in season. The game went on and TinduTs calling of balls was outrage ous, Sowders leaving the box in disgust. A j protest was entered, but Quin refused to allow it, savins: that as long as the game had takeu place and "after wiring to re move Tindill and theu letting him umpire, can't allow protest." The umpiring was so outrageous that the Duluth papers criticised Tindill severely. Till; STATE CHAMPIONSHIP. Manager Whitcouab is anxious to arrange for a series of games with St. Paul or Dv- \ luth. or both, aud has a proposition for a short series for state championship. He will make, also, an arrangement to play either St. Paul or Duluth a series at Minne- I apolis, for gate money, the Minneapolis j ! team to win three out of rive games with | I either or both teams. It is believed an in- | teresting wind-up could thus be given the ■MS and that the matches would draw large audiences. If Managers Barnes and Lucas are willing, arrangements can readily be made. A BENEFIT GAME will be played to-day at Minneapolis be tween the Minneapolis league team and the Macalester college champions. The re-, ; ceipts will go to the players aud the lovers i of the game should turn out and give the i boys a good benefit. In the earlr part of the season Macalester defeated Minneapo- I lis, so an interesting contest may be ex ! pecied. The batting order will be as follows: Minneapolis— Murphy 1. f.. Snafer 2b., i O' Route, c. f., Pickett 3b., Sowders p., Crooks | 8. s., Rhue lb.. Lynch r. f., Webber c. Macalester— Cress well 2b., Kirkwood, S., c, Irwin lb., Achard s. s., Kirkwood, W., p., Lee r. f., McCurdy c. f., Waiting 3b., Kiddor L f. 3IO.VriIL.Y REPORTS. Interesting Mortuary statistics and I'olice Court Data— I" lie Fires, Etc. Yesterday was the Ist of October, and the police force "changed ends." in other words, the day force went on night duty ! and the night force went on day duty. Chief Stetson, lookiug over his report for • the past mouth, said: "We had sixteen j alarms last month, eight still and eight box alarms. The loss on buildings was 55,755; 'on furniture. 53. 020; total, $7,781. Were j the losses covered by insurance? Well, I i should presume to assert. The insurance j amounted to §409.200, or about fifty-nine ! times the amount of loss." Health Officer T. F. Quinby said: "We had 148 deaths during September.as against i 115 in '85 and 174 in '84 during correspond i ing periods. Diphtheria gathered in 20 ! deaths, scarlet fever 4. typhoid fever 10. I am afraid that next month the fatality among children from diphtheria will be ; still greater. It is almost epidemic in cer tain sections now. Typhoid fever is pre j vailing, but not to any alarming extent. Why, in October, ISSI, we had sixty-two deaths from this disease alone, or two a I day. The records, which the grand jury say i are not kept, show that during the past month 861 arrests were made. Of these 106 were sent to the workhouse, 7 to the grand jury, 7to the county jail and 2 to the reform school. Seventy- five paid tines. Of the number 215 were arrested for drunk enness, 42 for disorderly conduct, 27 for larceny, 35 for robbery. 35 for vagrancy. The reaeipts of the municipal court from the criminal business amounted t0i1, 415. 95; from civil business, 5675.25. During Sep tember, 1835, 5 17, 506 were collected, but the civil business only amounted to 3333. 15, and the fines from the houses of ill-fame went to swell the criminal receipts. Receipts for the sale of stamps at the Minneapolis postotlice for September were §21,161; from money orders. §34,295.53. against $29,175.53 tor last year; paid out on money orders, $53,295.69, against. $44, -553.33 last year. At the :: St. . Paul post office the receipts for September were 519. --209.24. against 17. 095.36 for the cor responding month last year; from money orders, £25,188.19, against $28,526.18 last year; paid out on money orders, $55, --592.31, against §51,816.14 last year. During the month 385 building permits were isiued for structures costing in the aggregate $622,010. This makes the total of the permits foot up over §700,000. LEWIS IS MOT GUILTY. Thus Said the Twelve THen Who Constituted the Jury. The district court room was well filled yesterday morning, when the case of the state against M. W. Lewis, the colored man charged with shooting at Rev. Ettas Quincy Plummer, formerly pastor of the Second A. M. E. church, during a church fair some months ago, . was called. Many of those present were people who were at the church when the trouble occurred. The testimony introduced showed that some trouble had taken place early in the evening between Lewis and Plummer, and that Lewis had tried to get out ol it, and that later in the evening when he ap proached the reverend gentleman and asked for an explanation, Mr. Plummer had exclaimed: "Get away from me, you dirty, yellow rascal." At these words Lewis made a retort not calculated to sooth the feelings of Plummer, who made a lunge at him. striking him in the breast, He then grasped a big stool standing near and raised it to strike Lewis, who drew a revolver and tired, the bullet striking the bottom of the stool. A rough-and-tumble tight ensued, during which a second shot was fired. The testimony of the . different witnesses differed somewhat, but ail ap peared to substantiate Lewis' statement that Mr. Pluinmer had made the first assault. The case was given to the jury about 3:30. The jury was out until 10 o'clock, when a verdict of not guilty was returned. z The decision was received by the prisoner and his friends with considerable emotion. . At | one time the case looked very dark for Lewis, and now he fully appreciates his narrow escape. DISTRICT COURT NOTES. Cyril Hamolata, the young Frenchman found guilty of assault in the third degree on Johanna Hanson, 11 years old, was yesterday sentencod to three month? in the county jail. Lemuel Hardin and Hurry Williams, indicted Thursday on a charsre of robbery, pleaded not guilty yesterday aud will be tried later on. John Lemoude, indicted at the same time, pleaded not guiitv. The time for his trial has not yet been set. Tbe case of the State against William Kreidt, indicted by a former grand jury for circulating: an obscene circular, was called, but on motion of the couuty attorney it was continued until Oct. a. Henry Kent, charged with having assaulted Mrs. Carolina Gasper near Medina some time ago. was in court, looking white and troubled. The trial was commenced at a late hour, and will be con cluded to-day. FOR THE BENEFIT OF ORHAIVS. The Fair at Harinonia Hall Proving 1 a i. real Success. The Orphans' fair, now in progress at Harmonia hall, was remarkably well at tended again last evening, and more than the usual interest manifested by all present. It used to be said by some that there were no handsome girls of Irish descent in Min neapolis, but thus far during the fair there has not been a plain lookin? young lady present. All have been more than good looking have been decidedly hand —and hard hearted 'indeed is the man who can refuse to put his name in the little books they carry. Its all right to say before you enter the hall that you will not buy a single chance or pay for a solitary ballot, but after you are in and a black-haired, dark eyed nymph comes gliding up, and looking sweetly into your face, inquires: •'Do you want to take a chance?" : your resolution melts away like snow before a July sun, and the charming smile of the graceful girl amply repays you for any. trouble you may have undergone. Last evening the Orphan's Friend came out handsomely i'lustrated, and . was eagerly sought for. - The voting for the different prizes was lively. r The friends of the vari ous candidates appeared determined that their favorite should not lose if * there was any virtue in numerous votes, and from the t^E ST. PATJIi DAILY GLOBS SATURDAY MOHNINT3.' OCTOBER 2, 1886— TWELVE PAGES. I manner in which these useful little things cauie pouring in it seemed as though all would win, or else have more votes than they knew what to do with. The vote for governor attracted considerable attention. When the fair closed Thursday night Me- Gill was way uhead, having twice as many votes as Mayor Ames. The deficiency «f the doctor's votes was soon made up when the fair opened last night, and at 9 o'clock the gentlemen were running neck and neck with CO votes each. When the fair el— for the night, A. A. Ames was 13 votes ahead, and his friends insist that he will remain so. McGill's friends are equally confident that tha situ ation will be transposed. HAS IT BEEN ABANDONED) The Government Has Apparently Left the Water. Power to Private Care. . The work of replacing a large portion of the dams belonging to the East side water power has made considerable progress, says the Northwestern Miller, and by the time the river freezes up it is expected to have much done toward insuring the stability of the power on that side of the river, j The I old dams, put in many years ago, had be come very leaky from decay, and the wast age of water had assumed proportions mak ing it aa item of important consideration. One section of dam, running at right angles with the river to Henuepin island, and lo cated just above the upper edge of the East side saw mills, has been replaced with a new one of masonry, faced with timbers, the length of which is 170 feet. The old dam. in turning the upper end of Hennepin island, forms a sharp corner, and is being utilized for a coffer dam while a new piece of work is being constructed from the saw mil diagonally across this corner to the dam proper, 850 feet up the river. Of the latter, which joins that constructed above the saw mills. 280 feet is being put up at present. It is intended to complete the re- j maning 70 feet as soon, as practicable. This dam is also constructed of masonry, faced with timber. Instead of having one con tinued incline from the crest of the work, there will be two gradatory projec tions to break the force of ice or logs and protect the limestone at the toe of the dam, it all resting on a forty- four foot base. A dredging boat is also being built for remov ing the accumulations in the East side mill pond, The services of J. T. Fanning, a hydraulic engineer,' of Manchester, N. H., have been secured by the water power com pany, and he is directing the improvements. An interesting matter in this connection is the very recent withdrawal of government supervision over the water power of the falls, in the past a watchman has been kept on Hennepin island to look after the government improvements, but he has, within a week or two, been withdrawn, and tools and apparatus kept at his quarters have been disposed of. This has made it apparent to the two water power companies that the government will take no further care of the power, and that they will be left to maintain it as a private enterprise. The above companies realize that the apron and other parts of the works are in need of re pairs, which will have to be carried out by joint action, and they will probably co-op erate in making them during the coming winter. '■ •: , C. W. B. M. ANNUAL. MEETING. Reports Which Speak Well For the Success of the Society. The annual meeting of the Minnesota Christian Woman's Board of Missions was called to order yesterday morning at the Church of Christ by the president, Mrs. Enos Campbell, and Mrs. A. T. Aukeny conducted the religious exercises; Mrs. James Good made the address of welcome, which was responded to by Miss M. Pierce, of St. Paul. The report of the treasurer, Mrs. E. A. Jewell, showed the receipts for the past year to be 3196.93. and the dis bursements. $160.67. leaving a balance on hand of $134.67. The report of the cor responing secretary, Mrs. Arbuckle, of St. Paul, showed the receipts from state work the past year to be $290.18; receipts for foreign work. $86.13; receipts for National C. W. B. M., $122.95; total, $505.26. An auditing committee, consisting ;of Mrs. Pier. Mrs. Blyand Mrs. W'lcox was then appointed. The reports of the president aud other officers were read and approved. The next state convention will be held at Concord. It Comes Too Late. To the Editor of the Globe: It was a sad job thrust upon the Repub lican county convention of Hennepin- last Wednesday, when it was left with that body to amend all the bad breaks which the lte publicau party of late has made in regard to tbe Scandinavian element in this vicinity, and it must be stated to the honor of the said Heuuepiu convention that it labored nobly in order to carry out 'the mission: but it will take more neat than the old ring party now can carry Into any convention to soften the big- McGill freeze-out in Ramsey and the Fletcher-Pillsbury blizzard here when dele gates were chosen to the Republican state convention. Of course there may be a few Scandinavians who, in their own interest, deem it best to say nothing: about beinjr snubbed off with two delegates, legally chosen, where they ought to have at least a dozen, and then have a couple more bbgjced on to the delegation when protestations sue- i ceeded in turning slight into charity. But the main part of the Scandinavians will, no ; doubt, remember the original uncanny action of the party leaders toward the element, and the amendment or Wednesday came too late, however so well it was made. About the Scandinavians nominated on the county and It-jrislative tickets by the Republicans I think nothing but good can be said, but the point rests with the fact that they were put there only as soothing plasters to take the pain out of recently inflicted wounds, and to help the millers* and elevatoi rings out of the scrape into which they knew them selves to be. I pity the good men who have been put to pose before the voters for such a purpose, because it is a dead certainty that it will be "off coats" to work — against them, but against the party machinations which handles an important nationality in such a manner. And this work is a duty for every sensible Scandinavian in Heunepin and Ramsey counties. S. Minneapolis, Oct. 1, 1886. Radical Sentiment. To the Editor of the Globe. In Tuesday's Journal can be found a char acteristic piece of true Republican sentiment. It is headed "Cost Only $42," and gives in brief the biennial report of Warden Reed, of the Stillwnter state prison. The Journal seems all of a sudden to be stuck on economy, as it makes a point of the reduced net cost per prisoner from $138 a year ten years a>!O to $42 last year. This is all very '.vail us long as there exists no complaint in .regard to clothing aud feeding. But the paper glorifies especially in the increase cf earnings, and winds up with a prediction from the warden that "when there are 600 prisoners the prison will be self sustaining." It takes a paper like the Evening Journal to publish this pre diction without comment. Is it the economi cal sunstroke which has carried the paper so far as to base future accounts upon an even tual increase in law breaking? Or is it for, in the coming days, to strengthen the blind folded taxpayers' sympathy with the Repub lican convict-labor system? Never mind now what it may be; it shows clearly to the labor ing- man that there is not. as yet, very much of a turn in the Republican sentiment re-' garding the old competition between convict labor and freemen's toil. A Voieb. Minneapolis, Oct. 1, 1886. POLITICAL QUIPS AND QUIRKS. Several; prominent Democrats will be over to attend tue committee meeting at St. Paul to-day, and tell bow It should be done. Hennepin county will cast 30,000 votes next mouth, of which Ames will get 20.000 and MoGiil 10,008. Pin this to your memory. "Doc's Club," a flourishing Democratic or ganization of the Fifth ward, had a large and lively meetinir last night. Will . Grimahaw and JoUn W. Arctander both were among the slain, and yet neither Is in condition to congratulate the other. Two years ago a Scandinavian Democrat in Minneapolis was so rare as to be conspicuous, but to-day tbe Scandinavian Democratic clubs -have enrolled over 2,500 memoers. j$ A. F. Nordin tells a good story of the young man woe was i requested, last spring, to vote i against Amos. In return, be told a ' story to the ward worker, and both went together and cast their votes for Ames. ' The Trades Assembly may consider itself indorsed. Of the list of candidates it pre sented to the two conventions, all but one were nominated. * How amusing it Is to see the Republican platform "demanding" certain legislation. The Republicans have been in power, and if they so badly want this legislation as to de mand it, why did they not enact it? ' - "I predict," said. 8 gentleman who for a number of years past has been considered one of the staunohest , Republicans in Mlane - -■ ■ ■ .. ■ ' : ' ■- ■ r '■'■-'■.'"' sot a, yesterday, "that many Republicans will bolt the ticket this fall and go over to the Democratic camp. I shall do so mrsclf, and will tell you why. In the Republican platform is the worst lot of nonsense appealing to the workinKuien I ever saw. Th« convention was fully prepared to grunt anything tbaL was asked, even had It savored strongly of anarchism.
