MTNNFAPfII T( 2 Wl IU r*J Ed af2a.lT U JU JL jD* BLETHEN HEADQUARTERS. Today They Will £*c Opened in the Guaranty Loan Building. A. J. Blethen's mayoralty boom has een launched and towed to a perma nent place of anchorage. It was all done yesterday at noon. Half a dozen Bletheii men met last Saturday niglit,and decided that if Bletben were to be the man something should be done to lind out how the Republican party feels to ward him. The word was passed around that friends of "Bleth" should meet yes terday at noon in the Bank of Minneap olis building. They met, some fifty of them. Among these "solid, representative Republicans" were Carl Wallace, Dr. E. B. Zier, 11. F. Gjertsen, W. 11. Dennis, C.M.Reese, A. P. Loomis. S. 11. Chase, Dr. Tyrou, C. W. Curtis, Lewis Friedman, A. J. Smith, C. C. Dunn, E. 11. Day, George F. Moultou and W. 11. Foss. Louis A. Reed was chosen chairman. 1). M. Clough made a speech. If Blethen's friends wanted him to run for mayor they should say so. open headquarters and begin an active, aggressive cam paign, "like 1 managed for me and Knute," was the meaning of Mr. dough's remark. Bletben also made a speech — one of Blethen's usual speeches. Louis Reed volunteered to act as campaign manager and W. 11. Foss said be would pose as secretary. Headquarters will be opened in the Guaranty Loan building today. There Blethen's friends will meet again at noon today. An advisory committee of fifty and a sub-committee of fifty-one, a sort of executive commit tee, will lie announced then. Bletben is up and hustling, ne looks like a winner in the local scramble for nominations, as he is backed by the powerful state ticket influence. The Prohibition county convention should have been held yesterday. but the call had not been given the desired publicity. The convention organized and adjourned until Aug. 2?. It is probable that both the city and county conventions will be held at the same time. Aid. Fred Barrows announces his can didacy for a Republican legislative nomination in the Thirtieth district. With Barrows out of the way the He publicans are almost sure to nominate Burke O'Brien for alderman. Dr. E. B. Zier is a Republican legislative candi date in the Thirty-second district. The townships of Medina, Excelsior, Richfield and llluoiuington will petition the coming legislature for the forming of a separate legislative district. At present they are combined with the Seventh, Eleventh and Twelfth wards. FOR THE FARMERS. It Is Proposed to Bridge the Tracks at Lake Street. The council committee on roads and bridges met last night in the council chamber in conjunction with the alder men of the Eighth and Thirteenth wards. The purpose of the meeting was to dis cuss the building of a bridge over the Milwaukee and St. Lcuis tracks at Lake street. Representatives of the two roads, property owners in the vicinity of the tracks and representatives of the Minneapolis Land Investment company were also present and took part in the deliberations. Lake street at the point mentioned is the most favorable entrance into the city for the farm ers in the western part" of the county. The danger of crossing the tracks, how ever, proves a great drawback, so it is proposed to eliminate this danger by building a bridge, it is also proposed to have the city, county, railroad com panies and the land company, pay their equal share toward building the bridge. The land company is largely interested in the vicinity of the tracks through owning land. BBsPLRHfIM Plans for the bridge were submitted last night by the city engineer showing the bridge with a thirty-two- foot road-* way and a thirty- six-foot roadway. The length of the bridge will be about nine hundred feet and with the thirty-six-foot roadway the cost of construction will be £8,100. The matter was discussed pro and con. It was finally decided to ad journ until tomorrow evening at 8 o'clock, and in the meantime the city engineer will perfect his plans and a definite proposition will be formulated, so that the various interested parties can know exactly what to work on.

Diamonds Taken, From the Window of a Pawnbrok ing- Shop. Hoy and Hayes* First Ward Park Deal Seems a Goner. More of the Peterson Ex amination—Tracks Will Be Bridged. The good old days have surely come back again, and Deadwood Dick will no doubt put in an appearance just to help out the condition of things. Last night masked robbers held sway on Wash ington avenue south, and managed to frighten people half to death and carry oft considerable plunder. At 8:30 a. low-browed, rakish-looking individual stalked down the avenue and peered around in a true robber fashion, He stepped into a doorway between Third and Fourth avenues, and ivhen he reap peared his face was covered by a black mask, made from a handkerchief. No body appeared to notice him as he skulked along in the shadow of the buildings, save a street car conductor named L. Wigdale. The conductor is a brave man, for his occupation render him so whether he will or no. But he is also diplomatic and cautious", in fact.his caution overwhelms his bravery at times. When he saw the man with the black mask over his face skulking along so mysteriously he decided to watch him from afar. He did so. The low-browed, rankish-looking man went out into the street and picked up a huge piece of granite rock*, a piece which had evi dently strayed from the pile at the cor ner of Fourth avenue, where a building is in the course of construction. Grasping the rock firmly in his right hand, he moved rapid l}*" towards the pawn broker's establishment at 327 Washington avenue, kept by L. Lehman. When he neared the window, where a hannsome pile of diamonds lay basking iv the glare of the electric lights, he stopped and shifted hands. That is he took the rock in his left hand. Then he poised it above his head and, without warning any one, sent it crashing through the window. The diamonds lay before him in all their glistening beauty. They dazzled his eyes, but only for a moment. Hurriedly inserting bis bands into the hoie in the glass he scooped up the diamonds and ran around the corner. He ran up Fourth avenue as far as the alley, and then darted in behind the stores, run ning toward Fifth. No one could stop him, for he was altogether too speedy. Tbs street car conductor made a step toward bun, as though to stop him, but the robber did not propose to be balked by one of Tom Lowry's hired men. He drew a huge knife from his pocket as he ran and brandished it in the air. lt had the desired effect, and the con ductor declined to risk his life for a few diamonds. It so happened that no policeman was on the beat at the time, for it was just before the 9 o'clock watch was due. The department, however, was notified at once, and officers were detailed to hunt for the daring robber. Lehman's store was closed at the time the robbery occurred, so that the proprietor was not informed of his loss until some time afterward, lie places his loss at $000, though he is of the opinion that the jewels will invoice more. The diamonds were all set in rings and earrings. Patrick ("leason, a plumber, who re sides at 1728 Fourth avenue south, fell a victim to the greed of the Flour City highwaymen last night shortly after 10 o'clock. He was walking along Park avenue, and when near Twentieth street two footpads stopped him. Each held a revolver to his head and demanded his valuables. Gleasou accordingly handed the robbers his watch and money and walked into police headquar ters, where he told his story. HOY AND HAVES WHIPPED. Their First Ward Park Scheme Seems to Be Flat. The First ward park scheme seems to be dead in so far as it means the acceptance of the Hoy- Hayes tract for a park. This scheme has been before the park board over a year now. Yesterday the park board committee on designation of grounds decided to report against the Hoy-Hayes scheme. The board, of course, may take action contrary to the report of the committee, but precedent points to confirmation of the commit tee's report. MRS Before tlie committee met the park board rooms were crowded with a mot ley thromr that oversowed into the hall. In that crowd were young men and old men, little men and big men, women and children. So many of them were present that Aid. Ingenhtitt. who was there "merely as a spectator," he said, suggested that a First ward caucus be held tin the spot. They were all in earnest, too, those First people. They forgot all about the differences that ordinarily divide them, and the hum of discussion contained all the ele ments of the Schleswig-Holstein ac cent, the rich, feathery South of Ire land brogue and the nasal twang of the down-Eastern Yankee. 11. Gil son industriously circulated the results of some figuring he had done, a compar ative statement, as it were. His basis was a corner lot, 132x132 feet, on the corner cf Fourteenth avenue and Four and-a-llalf street northeast, and a better lot, he claims, than exists in the whole Hoy-Hayes tract. This corner lot, at one cent a square foot, is worth $1,742.40. Figur ing the cost of the Hoy-Hayes tract on the same basis, one cent per square foot, its value would be $10,S'.K>. If the value were figured per front foot it would be only 58,612. Over against these figures, claimed to represent the ap proximate value of the Hoy-Hayes tract, Mr. Gilson set tne price to' be charged, 126,600, payable in ten-year certificates, equal to -*13,*200 cash. * His deduction was that Boy and Hayes are asking about twice what the property is worth as real estate, while it is not wanted for a park anyhow. Well, the committee on designation of erounds met. Commissioner Folwell ex plained that the committee understood the arguments for and against the park and did not deem it necessary to hear them again. One gentleman asked per mission to make a brief statement. "The Hoy-Hayes people said at the iast meeting of this committee," said he. "that the friends of their side were not present because they did not know of the meeting. We know that their peo ple were down here on the sidewalk, but were sent away when it was seen that they were outnumbered." "Now," let this be understood, said Commissioner Folwell, in calling for a vote of the First warders, "All who are in favor ot accepting this Hoy-Hayes tract of land for a park, raise their right hands." Not a hand showed. The negative was called for. Every right hand went up as high as possible and each owner tried to push his hand higher than that of his neighbor. One of the dozen women raised the hand of her two-year old with her own. showing that young and old are opposed to the scheme, one First warder claimed. An old German named Litze wanted assurances. . "We want to be sure," he said, "that this thing will not come up again. We have been bulldozed long enough* We THE SAINT PAUL DAILY GLOBE: WEDNESDAY MORNING, AUGUST 10, - 1892. "' don't want to lose any more time over this thing. No, sir, we don't." The First warders wouldn't leave un til the commissioners had declared then-selves. .After f\ few minutes Com missioner well said : "The members of the committee here present have decided, after consulta tion, to report to the board : that, so far as the committee can see and hear, the sentiment of the people to be taxed for this park is against the establishment of the park." WS3SSBS Everybody then went home satisfied. Hoy and Hayes have submitted no new proposition to the park board. Neither Hoy nor Hayes, nor any representative or friend of them or their scheme, was present yesterday. Commissioners Fol well and Allen, of the committee on designation of grounds, will recom mend that the park board drop the First ward park scheme, refuse to consider it auy further. The fate of the Hoy- Hayes tract, as a possible public park, seems settled. The park board may reverse the com mittee next Monday. A. J. Boardman says the tax to pay for the park will be only about $7 a lot, payable in ten years, or 70 cents a year. KB PAID BEFORE EARNED. Republican County Officers Al ways Drew Salaries in Ad vance. The Peterson inquiry before Commis sioner Brooks was continued yesterday in the criminal court room of the county court house. The commissioner, after carefully reviewing the ques tion, announced his purpose to exclude such testimony as he thought incompe tent or immaterial. During the investi gation it was developed that it has been the custom of certain county officials to draw their salaries before the said sal aries were actually earned. It was alleged that Robert Jamison, W S. Chowan, Judge John P. Rea, Judge H. G. Hicks, Frank F. Davis, Frauk M. Nye, Judge Fred erick Hooker, Z. B. Swift, L. A. Condit and W. A. James have, while serving the county in official capacities, drawn salaries or portions of the same in ad vance of services afterward rendered. The defense yesterday endeavored to show that ex-Treasurer Peter son in anticipating the date his salary was due, and in drawing the same, was following an acknowledged custom. During the early afternoon the attorneys of Mr. Peterson were ex ercised over the publication in the noon edition of the Journal of the proceed ings of the commission. The attorneys allege the article referred to was inac curate, and placed in the hands of the sherilf papers of retraction to serve on the Journal. N. O. Werner, cashier of the Swedish- American baud, testified his bank was one of the depositories used by Peter son during and after the year 1891. The bank paid V/ per cent interest on coun ty deposits. Mr. Werner stated that although no contract had been made to that effect Mr. Peterson was paid money above that rate. The books of the bank substantiated Mr. Werner's testimony City Comptroller Solon Armstrong stated, on being sworn, he issued war rants to Peterson that made up the §1,278.30 covered by the first charge. The defense admitted the receipt by Peterson of that amount up to June 17, 1801, and its deposit by him to the credit of the county fund, but would not ad mit that Peterson had failed to charge himself with the $1,278.30 until March 10, 1802. The books of the treasurer were produced and a stub receipt shown for the amount bearing the signature of Mr. Peterson aud the date, March 10, 1802. Mr. Reutbei*- the treasurer's bookkeeper, stated that upon the re quest of Peterson he had searched the books for prior entry, but could not Cud one. County Auditor Ledgerwood, being sworn, testilied|he issued two warrants In December, 1882, to Peterson, for sal ary. One was for $.-»52. and was issued Dec. as salary for that month. He was asked if the salary was then due. The defense objected and the objection was sustained. The defense on cross examination asked witness . if , it were not the custom for county officials to draw salary iv ad vance. Mr. Thian objected. Judge Kea said he held in his hand a list showing that county officers, town officers and judges have been drawing their salaries in advance for years past, and that the list contained his own name. During the inquiry Attorney Lawrence offered as evidence a list of names of county officers who are alleged to have drawn their salaries in advance. The list was objected to and the objec tion sustained. President Schofield, on being sworn, testified the Farmers and Merchants' bank paid to Mr. Peterson a number of "gratuitous contributions." Teey were in excess of the regular IK per cent rate. Four checks of the following dates and amounts, issued by the hank to Mr. Peterson were pro duced as evidence, lt is alleged they cover three at the '"gratuitous contribu tion—Feb. 3, 18'Jl. 550.91; April 2, 18111. 8155.55; Juue 3, 1891, SISs.HJ; June 30, 1891, $175.

Lake dwellers say Carpenter kicks because he owns a lot of low lying land. He wants a low stage of water all the time. The lower halt of the Calhoun boulevard is under water.

Nearly 600 of Them Go Out a Brooklyn. • Brooklyn, Aug. 9.— Nearly GOO shoe makers employed by the firm of J. Wickert, 26, 28 and 30 Boer street. Will iamsburg, were either locked out or struck this morning. The cause of the trouble is that 150 turners of the shop have been dissatisfied with their pay, alleging that they were only paid 8 or 9 per cent of the value of the goods, while in New York 20 or 30 per cent of the value is paid. They appointed a com mittee and waited on Mr. Wickert and presented him with a new scale. The proprietor, on finding that the new scale would increase expenses SSOOper day informed the employes that they would have to continue at the old rates. The men displayed some unwillingness to continue at the old figures and Mr. Wickert declared a lock-out of the turn ers yesterday. The other employes to the number of 450 held a meeting last night and declared a sympathetic strike. Accidentally Shot. Special to the Globe. Devil's Lake, N. D., Aug. 9.— 8.

' The Majority in the House No ! More Irish Than Scotch : or Welsh. Mr. Balfour Follows the Lib j eral Leader With Much Bitterness. « London, Aug. 9.— The house of com mons was crowded to its full capacity before the business of the day was com menced, as it was expected that Mr. Gladstone would resume the debate oh the address in reply to the queen's bench. His appearance iii the house was the signal for ringing cheers from his adherents on the floor and his ad mirers in the galleries. l When Mr. Gladstone arose he was greeted with loud and prolonged cheering* by the members of the opposition. Mr. Glad stone opened his speech by referring to the procedure of the government in departing from precedents in hot re signing when the verdict of the coun try was against them. The house had met, Mr. Gladstone said, but they did not know for what. The queen's speech was read. Was it a fact, he said, that the judgment of the nation was without appeal? Was the house of commons to fightthe battles of the last six years over again? Never had . there been a great issue submitted to the country, that had been so fully discussed, as the issue decided at the last general election. The government was per fectly aware of that. They knew well that a majority of the house had come prepared to give effect to the verdict of their constituents. They could not do otherwise. Turning to Tlie matter of Home Rule he said Mr. Goschen had said that home rule must be carried by an Irish major ity if it were carried at all. In point of fact the majority in the house was no more Irish than Scotch or Welsh. No body had any title to distinguish votes for the purpose of invalidating the de cision of the house or country. Such an argument struck at the root of the .United Kingdom. There certainly was a sense in which parliament was justi fied in examining votes. That was when a scheme was proposed that af fected fundamentally any part of the country; for example, it was customary ,-to give effect to the wishes of the people of Scotland. The observations about the Irish majority were in deference to a bad tradition. Those making them would not venture to make similar ones about any other part of the United Kingdom. The fact that ,the majority was Irish was a recom mendation., rather than otherwise. '[Cheers from the Irish members.] As to the coming government, it would be time to critisise its words and deeds .when it came into office, not while it remained a nebulous hypothesis. Tne [Conservatives said that in the Liberals' speeches home rule was not always prominent. The verdict of the country had shown that the people meant it to be prominent, and therefore to put an end to the present government. The supporters of the government made .much of the peace now prevailing in Ireland, holding that it was due to co ercion. The tendency toward peace be gan in 1885, with the better prospect of home rule; though after the present government came into power there was a Bad State of (fair in ISSG, partly arising from agricultural depression. Mr. Gladstone added that, in justice to the government, he must say they were entitled to credit lor what they did toward relieving the distress by the land act of ISS7, but that came too late, lt was not associated with the administration of laws in harmony with the sympathies of such people. A per petual coercion net not only violated civil rights between 'Englishmen and Irishmen, but was in the highest degree injurious to respect for the law and its administration. As he had been asked questions respecting the continuance of coercion, he would reply at once that the coercion bill ought not be retained on the statute book longer than required by parliamentary usage. • Mr. Gladstone then proceeded to refer to the government legislation. He credited them with the conversion of the national debt, but complained that they had inflicted on Ireland a gross wrong in making her pretended repara tion by a local government bill too limited to satisfy Irish wants or to offer any solution of the Irish troubles. Passing from these matters, Mr. Glad stone acknowledged that the debate could not be altogether retrospective. You must have some Light Upon the Futnre. It was not possible for a Liberal gov ernment to say what measures they would submit to parliament six months hence. In regard to the suggested hold ing of a session in November, he could hardly say thai any government taking that course would show an inadequate sense of the magnitude and variety of the subjects it had to deal with. At tempts had been made to contrast the claims of Ireland as against the claims of Great Britain to the attention of par liament. Much could be said on both sides, but the claims of Ireland had for years been in the forefront of the battle, and still held that po sition. [Opposition cheers.] The piinciples of his home-rule bill were nretty well . known. By its provisions there would be a full and effectual maintenance of imperial supremacy, while Ireland would be given the con duct of her own affairs. Irish repre sentation in the house of commons was also contemplated under certain condi tions. As to the form in which these principles would be embodied it was the duty of the Liberals to select the best form, but not until they had been placed in power. The bill for seven years had his primary and absorbing interest, and it would so continue to the end. [Cheers.] The house would ad dress itself seriously to a bill giving j Ireland Self-Government. . It would pass the house of commons and then go to tbe house of lords. He would not argue upon the probability of the bouse of lords rejecting the bill. If ' the measure passed the house of com mons, springing out of a continuous controversy lasting seven years, which . had been carried on with zeal and abil ity under such diversity of circum stances, never would the house of lords have before them a question of greater importance to the empire at large, never a greater question to themselves. The obligations of a Liberal government would utterly forbid acquiesence in the rejection of those obli gations. To promote the settlement of >a, great subject it .. would remain unweakened and unchanged. At the same time it would be necessary to deal in 1893 with a sensible portion of British wants, the demand for which grown accelerated. [Cries of "Hear! hear!"] He: reminded the house that the Liberals had . been vainly trying to pass various measures of reform • while in opposition. Speaking broadly, these represented the essential character of the Liberal policy, and in conjunction with, or - rather •in :. subjection . to, the . great question between England and Ireland had received the DUtinct Approbation at the count*--* Befejyrjiyj to tlie am nesty of Irish prisoners, Mr. Gladstone said it was impossible for other than responsible ministers to give any pledge either for revision or commission of sentences. In regard to evicted teu jintSj h£ expressed the hope that dur ing the autumn voluntary arrangement between landlords and tenants would obviate the necessity for such legisla tion as would become inevitable if no arrangements were made, In conclud ing his speech, Mr. Gladstone recurred to the Conservative argument that the Irish majority was trying to co erce England. He held that such was the strength of England in rela tion to other kingdoms that she never could be coerced by them. She had a giant's strength, but let her not use it like a giant, lt would be most unfort unate if any party placed undue re liance in the power and strength of England against other members of the federation, in forgetfulness of the fact that, in the long run, moial force would predominate over material force. On that predominance depended what should be the first object of their de sires, as it was their daily official prayer —that union of heart and sentiment which constituted the truest basis of strength at home and good fame throughout the civilized world. [Loud cheers.] Mr. Balfour Followed Mr. Gladstone. He maintained that the house had a right to know, before en trusting the government to the Liber als, what their policy was, especially when the party upon which Mr. Glad stone relied was broken into at least three divisions, each owning a different leader. iqgnA-B •* t ffm r ..fff g -f Referring to the policy of the present government. Mr. Balfour said that that would be judged by historians. Assured as to what the verdict would be, he neither anticipated nor defended it. Mr. Balfour protested against Mr. Glad stone's describing the influence Ireland had exercised iv recent years on British nolitics as derived from moral consider ations. Immoral considerations, he said, was the right phrase. Mr. Gladstone's conversion to home rule was not due to moral forces, but to material party considerations. Referring to the coercion policy, Mr. Balfour reminded them that Mr. Glad stone, in 1885, proposed to retain the co ercion law with the assent of Sir G. O. Treveylan, Lord Spencer and other col leagues. In regard to the proposed vote of no confidence, continued Mr. Balfour, the government might be in a minority, but what was the majority? Had - that motley group the confidence of the house? The government, seeing the ex isting circumstances, had a right to re view the situation. The division of the opposition into sections, with different aims, could not be left out of account. PThe ICxistin'-; Partnership ween Great Britain and Ireland could not be dissolved without the as sent of both on terms acceptable to both. Considering the fact that the Irish members would be kept at West minster, and that an English majority might find itself at the mercy of a com bination of an English minority with Irish members, it was clear that Eng land had at least as much interest in home rule as Ireland had. They had a right, to insist that one of the parties to the existing partnership objected to its being dissolved. Uufortunately for all "parties, Mr. Gladstone's allies were his masters. Irish members told the Liberals "Unless you do this- and that, we will turn you out." [Conservative cheers.] How dangerous would such a state of things be to the interests of the empire if Irish dominance continued. Before the gov ernment resigned they had the right to ask what were the conditions under which the alliance between the Liberals and the Irish would be maintained; what conditions there were between the Nationalists who Had Been Squared and those who had not been squared, and what demands had been made upon the Liberals when they came into power, If disturbances arise in Ireland such as marked Mr. Motley's last period of oflice, was disorder to have a free hand? Was it part of the new compact that Daly and other convicted dynamiters should be let loose upon the world? [Conservative cheers.] The Irish members said that every evicted tenant must be restored to their holdings, and that some 2,000 others who had pursued them should be punished for their industry. [Hear, hear!] Were the Liberals going to ac cede to the demands of Mr. Redmond that there should be no interference with the acts of the Irish parliament, or would they tamely submit to Irish dic tation, refusing legislation from Eng land until the home rule bill was passed? The Conservatives might be beaten by that party, but as yet they had not been so beaten. [Cheers and counter cheers.] They knew that the future was with them. They knew that if the work of social legislation were to be undertaken by the house at all, it must be by Un ionists, and not by a party under Irish coercion. In turning the government out, had the Liberals The Slightest Prospect that home rule would come first, repeal ot the crimes act next and thirdly the destruction of the house of lords? [Laughter.] Would they allow the gov ernment time for passing other impor tant measures which thecountry heartily desired and which they could not touch owing to the Irish allies? The country had returned most of the Liberal mem bers under the absolutely mistaken con viction that they were going to deal with the Newcastle programme. The time would come when the elect ors would turn to the party having the power and the will to press forward the social questions to legislative issues. The country will get sick of Irish dictation, and would turn to the party that had shown during re cent eventful years that it was not un worthy to frame the laws and guide the destinies of. a great empire. [Cheers.] Mr. Harrington said he had listened to some of Mr. Gladstone's remarks with anxiety. He felt bound to warn the Liberals that some questions required immediate attention. He regretted Mr. Gladstone's scant dismissal of the case of evicted tenants. They had borne the ! brunt of the battle and had made the j greatest sacrifices for their class. He j did not think their case presented an insuperable difficulty. Again, if the amnesty question were neglected, it would cause a fresh agitation and fresh trouble. If the Liberal party were wise it would give specific pledges to satisfy Ireland on these matters. • An American Boat Won.
