' KING'S SENTENCE COMMUTED.
In commuting the death sentence of
Col. 11. (i.ay Ki.\<i, Gov. LJrciiAXAN'.
of Tennessee, has made himself subject
to severe censure throughout the un
chivalric North. Nor do we think that
even in the .South, where gentlemen
and "men of honor' quite customarily
consign their disputes to the arbitra- i
ment of bullets— not even there will
public sentiment approve the exercise
ot executive clemency in the case of the
slayer ot David Postox.
The killing ol Poston is still tresh in
public remembrance. It occurred on
the morning of March 10, 1801, on one
of the principal streets of Memphis.
As King advanced upon his victim the
latter, thinking King was making an
overture: toward reconciliation, held
out ; his hand in - token of friendship.
(Dashing the hand aside, King placed the
muzzle of a revolver against Poston's
side and pulled the trigger. The cow
ardly shot did its work only too well.
and Postox fell dying into the arms of
a friend. It was murder, plain and
simple, cowardly and calculated. For
months Kirn; had meditated the deed,
and at last, screwing his courage to the
sticking:?!, point with whisky, he
brought his man down without giv
lug him a word ot warning or
it ; chance to defend himself. ' This
manner of homicide is not consonant
■with the Southern sense of honor, no
matter what (low Buchaxax's opinion
of it may be. To shoot a man who is
offering to shake hands with you is not
the way of Southern gentlemen in set
tling disputes of honor, no matter how
much to the contrary some of our small
bore Northern newspapers may de
claim. For his interference in King's
behalf, Gov. Bcchaxax will probably
be eveu more severely criticised in the
South than in the North.
i The history of the feud between
King and Postox offers no palliation
for the crime. The inevitable woman
in the case was Mrs. Gideon J. Pil
low, widow of the. Confederate general
of that name. For this woman King de
serted his wife and children, and to this '
woman he deeded valuable property.
When ho wearied of her, or she of him,
lie sought to recover the property by
suit. Posros was retained as Mrs.
Pillow's attorney, and out of this grew
the feud. It was not, strictly speaking,
» feud, either, inasmuch as Poston had
never made threats of personal violence
against King. It was, as asserted
above, simply a cold-blooded murder;
and, according to ail the facts known
to the public and to the jury which con
victed King, the latter should have
paid the death penalty for his cowardly
crime.
ITHE CASE OF JUDGE NOK
MILE.
When a man kills himself because of
charges brought against him in a news
paper he is either guilty as accused, and
afraid to face the consequences, or he
is the victim of a most outrageous abuse
»f the liberty of the press.
A case in point is that of Judge Jamks
C. Nokmim:, of St. Louis, who has com
mitted suicide because of imputations
against his official honesty made by the
&t- Louis Post-Dispatch. As a result of
these charges Judge Xohmii.k had in
stituted suits against the Post-Dispatch
for heavy damages; but either this
method of redress seemed to him in
adequate, or he feared to face the issue.
In a note which lie left he states briefly
that it had devolved upon him to kill
either himself or his detractors, and
•'preferring suicide to murder, and see
ing no other course open," he had de
termined on the former.
About the merits of the controversy
between Judge Nokmile and the Post-
Dispatch the public outside of St.
Louis is not infoime.l. By many the
Buicide will be at once accepted as con
clusive evidence of guilt, and the Post-
Dispatch exonerated. But, on the other
hand, there is the argument that a man
who valued his reputation so highly as
to find life unendurable under the bare
jmputatiou of dishonesty could not
save risked his reputation and his life
X>y being actually dishonest. Whatever
may be the real merits of the case, how
ever, it is certain that the situation
holds little comfort for those who di
rected the newspaper attack on Judge
$sokuil£. They have shouldered a
■ourden of responsibility which will
bear heavily on them through life, and
perhaps even more heavily iv the here
utter. The sad incident should serve as
ft salutary warning to pencilers who are
prone to let malice aud all iui<>>iaritaui«.
ness guide their pencils, witho.it
thought of the terrible cost to their vic
tims.
IGNATIUS AXD RXCTE.
The esteemed Philadelphia Telegraph
has discovered that "the existing rivalry
between Knite Nelson, the nominee
for governor of the Minnesota Repub
licans, and Ignatius Donnelly, the
champion of the People's party, results
from their old-time rivalry in the Min
nesota state senate more than ten years
ago. They were continually at war on
points of parliamentary procedure. *
* One point raised by Nelson
against the Baconian sage was so knotty
that it gave the lieutenant governor a
three days' search of the books before
lie could decide it. His himl decision
was against Donnei.lv, to the great
amusement of the entire state."
Amusement is still the right name for
it. It is impossible to take the antics of
these two "reformers" seriously. They
are all things at all times, and for the
all-pervading purpose of being heard
from. In the house Knitk Nelson
voted for the Mills bill for purposes of
self-advertisement. He desired to be
distinguished from his fellow Republic
an members, who were content to ob
scurely troop along under their party's
banner. lie yearned for .notoriety and
for the vulgar pleasure of "showing
off." That he was actuated by any
higher motive in his advocacy of the
Mills bill— that it was, in short, a mat
ter of principle with him— is disproved
by the facility with which he now
jumps back to a high protection plat
form, which offers him the best vantage
point for purposes of seif-advancement
and advertisement. Cau such acrobatic
patriotism be taken seriously?
And Doxxkm.v — well, everybody
knows Doxxelia-'s record as an all
around acrobat. He is a whole circus
in himself. Our Philadelphia contem
porary will doubtless be pleased to learn
that the state is stili being amused by
these trick politicians. It must be con
fessed, however, that the amusement is
somewhat mitigated by disgust. The
state will, in fact, be well content to
make this the farewell appearance of
these agile harlequins.
A CHANCE FOR BENJAMIN.
Inasmuch as President Harrison has
evinced himself to be nothing; if not
belieerent, and really fonder of an in
ternational "scrap" than of Cauxkgie
Scotch whisky, why doesn't he jump
into the Cuban breach. It is a great
chance for him— greater than either
Italy or Chili afforded. We would have
had to take either of these two countries
single-handed, but in the case of Cuba
we would have Spain to help us. With 4
Spain's assistance Mr. Haimmson 1 oueht
to have a good lighting chance against
Cuba, and perhaps, after ail, the war
racket could be worked to boost the
doughty JilUe brigadier airain into the
presidency. As the conqueror of Cuba
Mr. Hakkisox would be invincible at
the polls. It would be instantly recog
nized that he had saved this country
millions of dollars annually by thwart
ing Cuba's designs on as. There is no
mistaking what those designs are. The
present Cuban revolutionary movement,
operating from this country as a base of
supplies, is merely the forerunner of a
bold scheme to compel this country to
annex the island. Spanish rule is to be
overthrown Bret, and then the Cubans
are going to come at Uncle Sam, ham
mer and tongs. Without Spain's assist
ance we might be outmatched and com
pelled to take in the pesky little island,
with its big debt and its extravagant
habits. The only way to save ourselves
is lo act now in conjunction with Spain
to crush the revolutionists. It is the
grand opportunity of Mr. Haurison's
administration. Let him buckle on his
armor and wade in. If he saves us
from having to take Cuba, all else will
be forgiven. But he must act promptly,
for the filibusters are likely to land on
Cuban soil at any moment and, besides,
he hasn't much time left before election
day. . . -

An exchange suggests "Put 'em to work"

IS IT CHOLERA?
A Disease Which Resembles It
in New Jersey.
New Yoiik, Aug. 10.— A special to
the Press from New Brunswick,
N. J., says the residents of Hell
metta, a thriving borough on the
Pennsylvania railroad, has an epidemic.
The disease is of a peculiar character,
and twenty deaths have resulted in less
than a week. It is much like dysen
tery, but far more severe. Fears that
it is Russian cholera are entertained by
the physicians, who seem unable lo
check it. The disease appeared first in
a family of Russian Jews.
Chilians Love Us.
New Yokk, Aug. 10.— Col. William
B. McCreary, United States consul at
Valparaiso, Chili, arrived iv New York
today in the Pacific mail ship Columbia.
Col. McCreory says: "1 can ouly speak
of Chili and the Chilians iv terms of the
highest praise. There is co particle of
truth iv the stories of ill-feeling on the
part of Chilians against Americans.
Both the government and people are
friendly to Amdrica. If there has beeu
any ill-feeling toward Mr. Egan it has
subsided."
Chorus Girls iv Luck.
Special to tne Globe.
Uraxd Fokks, N. D., Aue. 10.—
Misses Effle and May Warner, dancers
of the Calhoun Opera company, tonight
received a telegram announcing the
death of their uncle, Lawrence Everly,
of Marion, Ind., bequeathing them his
entire estate, estimated at $200,000.
Another Threat to Friek.
Pittsbubg, Aug. 10.— In Aid. Mc-
Master's mail yesterday was an anony
mous letter, which had been posted in
New York city at 12 in. Monday. The
letter was inclosed in a small envelope.
It was written in a cramped hand, prob
ably disguised. The letter read:
Aid. McMasters. Pittsburg, Pa.— Sir:
Some time this week a party of men will
leave here, and will try to kill you and Supt.
Frick again . _
May Lynch King.
Memphis, Aug. 10.— It is reported
here iate tonight that the Louisville &
Nashville passenger train, which left
here this evening for Nashville was
boarded at Tennessee Midland Junc
tion, just outside the city, by forty
men armed with Winchesters. It is be
lieved that they are friends of Poston,
and have started for McK.eny.ie with the
object of overtaking King at that point
aud lynching him.
THE SAINT PAUL DAILY €LLOBE: THURSDAY MORNING, AUGUST 11, v*%
ODDS AND ENDS.
It Is probable that some of the Press dub
jockeys will repeat their sensational per
formances at the state fair.
-:-
If it is not too late, a suggestion might be
made to the stale fair managers to offer a
few prizes for a small dog exhibition. One of
the attractive features of last year's fair were
the St. Bernard dogs exhibited by Mr. Scott.
Almost everybody who visited the ground
crowded the tent wherein they were placed,
and. if the managers want to add to the at
tractiveness of the fair, something of the
sort should be taken up. Something out of
the ordinary run is necessary. People are
tired of paying their eimolcons to see prize
cabbages and potatoes.
The outlook for Manager Bixby's testi
monial benefit at the Grand Monday indi
cates a bumping bouse. Bixby deserves it.
as no enterprise for any charity or public
body has appealed to him for assistance
without a ready and hearty response.
What a raid there would be if Minneapolis
were to corral the Kellogg Newspaper com
pany, and with it their popular T. J. Price:
It is satisfactory lo learn from Mr. Price that
the transfer of the Kellogg officers from St.
Paul is exceedingly improbable.
The Knights Templar are at present dis
porting themselves at Denver. They will be
entirely outdone in two weeks, wheu the
Minnesota editors take possession of that
city. Old Pease. Irving Todd and Charlie
Stine, when they get on the war path, will
STirprise the natives.
Whht a great manufacturing center St.Panl
wouiu be today if all the factories and busi
ness ventures "considered" by public bodies
were located in the city. Thecit^would
also be a great manufacturing headquarters
if the mysterious Eastern capitalists, who.
ever and anon, look ever the city for the pur
pose of starting a factory cf some sort or an
other, were to actually estaolish the enter
prises they are credited with projecting.
■*%*■
The real estate men are not saying much
these days, but for all that there has been
an excellent business done. The residential
properly put up this summer has been equal
to that of many of the most prosperous sea
sons iv the history of the city, and when the
year's work is summed up St. Paul will dis
play that solid, substantial growth which has
been so characteristic of the city.
R. C. Elliott, who filled tiie position of pri
vate secretary to Gov. Merriam and is now
engaged in looking after the governor's "out
side" financial interests, was in the city yes
terday, lie will shortly leave for the Pacific,
Where he expects to remain several months.
The Pacific coast, he says, is where all the
money is goiug to be made the uext few
years.
The recent storms have made terrible hav
oc for tne farmers, acre upon acre of wheat
and barley having been iaid to the ground.
Hundreds of acres of wheat will not be har
vested, owing to the devastation of the
storm, nnd the general condition of the agri
culturist is not near so rosy as what it was
last year at this time. If there be many more
storms the next two weeks, the conditions
will become very embarrassing.
What has become of the public baths
which were to be inaugurated by the present
administration? A petition was presented
the council by certain lndies,and it W9s
out that the matter would be pushed Forward.
Uut weeks have passed, and nothing lias
been do::e. The special characteristic of this
administration is wind. They talk, talk, talk,
and accomplish nothing.
Editor Pease, of Anoka, was in the city
yesterday. He does not at all reiiih the
selection of Knute Kelson as the Republican
gubernatorial nominee, and is of opinion
that many Americana will refuse to vote for
bim. Mr. Porse, however, when the soreness
of defeat wears away, will get off his coat
and tight tor tis party's ticket. The Anoka
Union is one of the best edited, as it is cf the
most powerful weekly papers In the state.
Mr: Pease is also a very treuchaut editor;
there is no mincing of words with him.
What Fusion May Accomplish.
Minneapolis Times.
The Republican managers in this
state are working themselves into a
state of mind over the possibility of a
fusion of the Democratic and People's
party forces. And certainly, if there is
a reasonable prouabilitv of such a com
bination, there is abundant reason for
Republican distress. Such a union of
forces has been effected in Kansas, and
the result of it will be tiie wresting of
the electoral vote of that state from the
Republicans iv November next. A
similar union of the two parties, whose
common object is the overthrow of Re
publicanism, would achieve the same
all-icportaat result here in Minnesota.
There would be nothing incongruous
or unprecedented in such a union. Fu
sion lias played an important part in
the history of the United States. The
Republican party is itselt a creature of
fusion. The People's party in Minne
sota is in perfect accord with the Dem
ocracy on the tariff issue, and on gen
eral lines ot reform. With its incidental
vagaries the Democratic party has noth
ing to do, nor would it indorse them in
the act of co-operating with it for cer
tain common ends.
The combined force of the Democrats
and Alliance men in Minnesota at the
last state election exceeded that of the ;
Republicans by over 50,000 votes. It is
certain, therefore, that fusion among
the various anti-Republican elements
would mean the inevitable loss of the
state this fall to the Republicans.
The dissenters from Republican rule,
under various names, are unquestiona
bly in the majority, not only in Minne
sota, but in nearly all of the doubtful
Western states. Fusion is a fair and
honorable application ot the principle
of minority representation. It is not a
trading away of principles, but an
equitabie adjustment of representation.
It is now evident that the fusion idea
will be utilized with powerful effect in
a number of states, to unite all the
anti-Republican forces for the deteat of
a common enemy in the coming national
struggle. It is possible, as it would be
entirely reasonable, proper and prac
tical, for the same elements in Minne
sota to effect a similar union with the
same great object in view.
Lawler Will Win.
Chicago Herald.
Frank Barrett, the partner of ex-Gov.
Campbell in a mining business in Min
nesota, was at the Grand Pacific yester
day. He oscillates between Ohio and
Minnesota, and keeps posted on polit
ical affairs in both states. Be holds
the same political faith as does the ex
gqvernor, and predicts that Minnesota
will elect a Democratic governor and
give its electoral vote to the Democratic
candidates, but says that it is hardly
probable that Ohio can be wrested from
the Republicans. "Lawler is a popular
man in Minnesota, and his chances of
election are eminently better than aie
Nelson's, ' he said. li The record of the
latter on the tariff question is such as
to detract from his vote. He is too
much of a protectionist for the Demo
crats and too much of a free trader for
the Republicans. Minnesota farmers
are all ready tor tariff reform, as their
vote next November will show."
Destroyed by Lightning.
Rutland, Vt., Aug. 10.— The Harris
Manufacturing company's works were
struck by lightning and partly burnefr
this evening. The works employed
seventy-five men, and were chiefly de
voted to chairmaking and miscellaneous
woodworking. The loss is £75,000,
with §23,000 insurance. The buildings
were alongside the Central Vermont
railway property, and a storehouse
containing bridge timber and a lumber
shed were burned. Loss about {10,000.

A LONG FIGHT.
One Goins on Between Burge ami
La Vigne.
Sax Frascisco, Cal.. Aug. 10.— Jim
Burge, ot Australia, and Billy La Vigne,
of Saginaw, Mich., lightweights, en
gaged in a finish fight for a
$1,250 purse at the Pacific Athletic
club tonight. It was <J:25 p. in.
before the men entered the rine. Dan
nie Needham and Tim McGrath second
ed LaVigne, Billy Murphy and Joe
Goddard seconding Burge. Mike Sul
livan was referee. La Vigne's superior
height and reach cave him an advantage
over Burge, who kept boring in to little
advantage. LaVigne cauitht him with
both hands on the get away in I
the third aud nearly dropped him. In
the fourth Burge scored some hard
right-handers on the jaw. staggering
La Vigne. In the fifth round La Vigne
jaobed at long range, Burge egging him
on and waiting with the right.
From the sixth to the ninth
round Burge shaped up better
and kept La Vigne guessjn?.
He would drop his head and take La
\ igne's half-arm jolts in the face at
close quarters without a return, but
would swing his right on the head or
kidneys as La Vigne got away. The
next rive rounds were slow, La Vurne
avoiding close quarters. The next
three rounds were a little warmer.
Buree's left ribs were somewhat
marked and he had lost a tooth. La
Vigne was apparently as good as ever.
The seventeenth to the twenty-first
were much like the preceding rounds.
From the twenty-first Burge went in
desperately, but La Vigne's shiftiness
saved the latter much punishment. The
contest looked no nearer a conclusion at
the twenty-third than at the commence
ment.
The only thing to vary the monotony
of the next four rounds was l>a Vigne's
gallop around the ring. Burge was
eettiug tired, while La Vigne's con
hdence was on the increase, and he dis
dained to land a blow except on the
most favorable opportunity.
The twenty-ninth and thirty-first
rounds were marked by some hot ex
changes. Iv the thirty-fourth Lavigue
caught Burge one of the hardest blows
of the light, a left-arm jolt on the face,
sending the Australian to the ropes. In
the thirty-fourth Lavigne got in a stroug
left upper-cut, with a shoulder iiudi^e,
that nearly did the Australian.
A MANITOBA SCANDAL
Which Involves a Well-Known
Military Man.
Spec-ial to the Globe.
Winnipeg, Han., Aug. 10.— The ar
rest of Col. Buy, a prominent banker
and military man of Port Arthur, who is
well known throughout the entire do
minion, has created a tremendous sen
sation in society circles. The facts of
the scandal are these: Col. Ray
met on the street Mrs. Bathurst,
wife of Dr. Bathurst, a well
known physician aud engaired
her in conversation over church
matters, both bein;: leading members of
a city church. They walked towards
Bathurst's residence, and when it was
reached the colonel asked permission to
enter to continue conversation. A few
minutes after entering Ray made an in
decent proposal to the lady, the effect of
which so startled her that she swooned
away. While in a faintin? con
dition Mrs. Bathurst says Col.
Ray accomplished his purpose.
When thd lady recovered she at once
alarmed the household. Col. Ray. hear
ing that proceedings were to be taken,
it is said, sent a friend with a check for
?o,t)00 to suppress the matter. This she
indignantly refused, and at once swore
out a warrant for tbe man's arrest,
which was executed. Dr. Bathurst, who
was out of the did not return until
the following day. He is furious over
the outrage, and swears to shout Ray if
he escapes justice in the courts.
PANIC OF THK SAALE.
Caused by the Sinking of the
Torkenskjold.
London, Aug. 10.— The steamship
Saale, Capt. Hichter, of the North Ger
man Lloyd line, arrived at Southamp
ton with the crew of the Norwegian
bark Tordeuskiold, which was scut
tled on Aug. 4. The collision
occurred in a heavy fog, and the bark
went down within a tew minutes after
being struck. The captain and crew
were taken off. On the Saale there was
a panic among the passengers, most of
whom were in the main cabin, as
soon as they felt the shock of the col
lision. All ran on deck, men and wom
en coming up half-dressed from their
state rooms. The officers went around
assuring all that the Saale had suffered
no injury, and that the peril had been
happily averted by the captain. Perfect
order was restored before the boats re
turned with the crew of the bark. The
passeneers of the Saale held a meeting
and signed a memorial to the captain,
commending him for his gallant be
havior and" his presence of mind in
turning the Saale bow on, so that the
bark was prevented from striking her
m the side. _
ON AN OPEN FORGE.
Fatal Injuries to a Workman Dur
ing a Dispute.
St. Louis, Mo., Aug. 10. — Tonight at
the repair forges of + he St. Louis &
Suburban Electric road, Scotty Morris,
an ex-convict and generally tough
citizen, and Fred. Dubois, a fellow
workman, became involved in a
serious dispute over their respective
nationalities and the merits of their
particular female friends. A crowd of
over a dozen of Dubois' friends finally
rushed at Morris, throwing chisels,
hammers, etc., and crying "Lyncn
him;" "Kill him," to the now thor
oughly frightened ex-convict. They
threw him on an open forge,
which was heated to white
heat. Just as this was done a squad of
policemen, who had been sent Tor, ar
rived and rescued the victim, but not
before he was fatally burned. With all
his strength he resisted the efforts of
the officers to place him in the ambu
lance, believing he was to be put undpr
arrest instead of taken to the hospital.
Several of his assailants were arrested.
CDT A TRAIN" IN TWO.
Strange Damage Done "by a Texas
Water Spout.
San Antonio. Tex., Aug. 10.— The
country a few miles east of here was
visited last night by a water spout, and
the San Antonio river was soon a raging
torrent. The waters swept down upon
tbe Southern Pacific railroad bridge as
a train was crossing. Part of the
train crossed safely, but the four
real- cars went through. Conduc
tor McMillin received probably fatal
injuries. Brakeman Frank Leonard
was killed. Brakemen Raymond, Waldo,
Quick and Goodwin were all seriously
injured. Thirteen miles south of here
a waterspout was seen a quarter of a
mile away from the International &
Great Northern track at 8 o'clock tins

Tom Prendergast's Roll Call
r> Leads to a Peculiar Law
' Suit.
■■ v ; The London & Northwest American
'Mortgage company is, as the name
would suggest, engaged in loaning
money on city property. In order to
protect itself the company has to see
that none of the property on which it
holds mortgages is sold " for delinquent
assessments. In accordance with this,
it is the custom to secure a statement
from the county and city .treasurers as
to condition of the lands in question.
Several days ago J. H. Foote, attorney
for the company, presented a partial
list of property on which they hold
mortgages to the county and city treas
urers' office for a statement as to delin
quent taxes and assessments.
At the county treasurer's office the
list was taken, and the following day
the same returned with the information
desired. At the city treasurer's office
the clerk took the list, a duplicate of
that given the county treasurer, and as
Mr. Foote was in a hurry for the infor
mation marked it "rush" and said it
would be ready the following day.
A boy sent to the city treasurer's
office a day or so afterward was told Mr.
Miller desired to see the manager of the
company. A visit to Mr. Miller's offie
was made. and|that official informed the
representatives of the company that the
work would have to be paid for at three
cents per description in lorder to insure
prompt attention. Of course, he said
the work could be done without any
payment, but it would have to take its
regular course, and as the company
wanted the matter rushed it would be
cheaper to pay three cents for each de
scription examined.
The representatives of the company
did not take kindly to the plan pro
posed by Mr. Miller, and asked to have
the question referred to the city attor
ney for an opinion as to whether they
would have to pay for this class of work.
Tc such reference Mr. Miller objected.
saying that Mr. Lawler did not agree
with him in politics. The request was
then made that the law under which
Mr. Miller maue his ruling be sljown,
but this also was refused. In order that
there might be no delay, the charges on
the work, amounting to $1.75, were paid
by a check draw* in favor of Conrad \V.
Miller, city treasurer, and the desired
information was soon obtained.
A representative of the company said
yesterday that it was not so much the
amount it cost to get the information he
objected to. but the principle of the
thing. On the list which he submitted
.'were from fifty to sixty descriptions,
and out of that number it was found
over 82,000 was due .on delinquent
.assessments. The idea, he said, of
paving tor something . which would
increase the receipts of the city treasury
i was odd, to say the ■ least. In the con
versation with Mr. Miller that gentle
man suggested the payment of three
cents for each description would be
much cheaper than for the company to
hire a man to stand in front of a window
in the office and hand in for examina
tion a separate description of each piece
of pi=6perty on which •information was
.desired, i. This the manager admitted,
and was one of the reasons why the
money was paid for the work.
' Mr. Miller explained that Cochran &
Walsh had paid for the same work with
out any objection.- ■•■
When seen yesterday afternoon about
the matter, Mr. Miller explained by say
ing it was a system which had been in
force under Mr. Keis' management of
the office. The money, he said, was
paid to clerks in the office who worked
after hours on the lists. He had been
informed that clerks under Mr. Keis
had done the same thing, and he sup
posed received the money the same as at
the present time. He had told his
clerks all they could get out of it was
theirs. Tne law. he said gave the own
ers of property - the right to make in
quiries about assessments on property,
but as he looked at the matter the loan
company were not the owners, and were
not entitled to have the work done so
as to delay other work of the office.
MERELY A FAKE.
No Truth in the Story or a Local
Counterfeit Gang.
The story printed yesterday moraine
by a St. Paul paper, in which it is made
to appear that a counterfeiting gang is
at work in the neighborhood of the
Twin Cities, is a fake, pure and simple.
Not only is it untrue that such a gang
is at work, but it is equally untrue that
there is any considerable amount
of spurious money in circulation
about St. Paul. J. W. Lawrence,
United States inspector, said last
night that the story was nothing
more than a sensational fake, worked
up from the bald fact that several per
sons had had counterfeit money passed
upon them— something that is occurring
every day in St. Paul, as well as other
large cities. A similar denial was
made at police headquarters. Detective
Werrick, who was sent to Denver Sat
urday, went not on any counterfeiting
business, but at the request of Chief
Farley, ot that place, to assist in look
ing after the thieves who flock to such
gatherings as the Templar conclave.
There were wheels in the head of the
reporter who wrote the fake alluded to.
VOICE AT A PREMIUM.
Suit Growing Out of Tom Pren-
ii dergast's Koll Calls.
5 The question as to whether a person
had spoken in an audible tone of voice
is likely to cause the city no end of
trouble and expense. One of the clauses
of that monumental mass of folly known
; as the Bell charter reads as follows:
5i "Any member of eitnerof said bodies, who
being ore sent when his name is called, fails
;• 10 vote upon, any then pending proposition,
in a tone plainly understood by the presiding
officer, {-hail be counted as u.iving voted in
the negative on the pending proposition."
!*, This clause refers to the manner of
; voting of the dual council. The legal
ity of the grading and improvement of
\ East Third street now questioned on
the interpretation of the above clause
by David J. Hennessy, who objects to
.'baying 120,000 as his share of the ex
pense of the work, that amount having
'been assessed upon his property as
being benefited to that extent by the
grading and cutting of slopes.
Yesterday an application was filed in
the district court by the attorneys for
Mr. Hennessy. asking that a writ of
mandamus be . served upon Thomas A.
Prendergast, the city clerk, who is the
clerk also to the two branches of
the council, citing him to appear
before the court and show cause why he
should not alter the record of the pro
ceedings of the council relating •to the
improvement of East Third street. The
'papers tiled state that in all the proceed
-ings of the council, that when the vote
was takt'ii on the matter and the roll
was called by. the slerk, that no member
responded at all. and that according to
the charter the votes should have been
recorded in the negative; yet the record;
shows that the members voted in the 7
affirmative. The coses cited refer to
: me order sent . to the board of ' public \
works instructing that body to make
the assessments for damages, and also
to the award of the contract for the
grading and filling of the street. Judge
Brill issued the writ as asked for, and
it was made returnable for Sept. 3.
City Clerk Prendergast, when seen
about the matter, said that he conld not
remember if the members of the council
had voted in an audible tone of voice or
not on the occasions referred to in the
papers filed, but he should judge they
had done so, for if not the record would
not show that they had voted ac
cording to the law. The law required
that the presiding officer should hear
the votes in an audible manner, and he
presumed that on the occasions in ques
tion that the presiding officer had heard
the votes or he could not have an
nounced the result. The city attorney
will appear ou behalf of the city clerk
at the hearing of the motion a 9 made in
the writ issued.

w-ith handicap allowances, and will now
tackle the scratch playars. Yes, he has
defeated one scratch man— Capen— in a
hard-fought battle, in which Capen had
far the best of it up to the last, when
Dougherty made a run of 23 and out.
Last evening Dougherty played a
speedy £ame. He defeated Jlonald 100
to 55, and quit with an average of 5. His
high runs were 21, 15. 14, 11 and 10.

ADVISED TO HURRY.
Canadian Procrastination May
Have Serious Results.
Toronto, Ont., Aug. 11.— Mail,
alluding to the official and semi
official reports that are made on the
subject of the intentions of the govern
ment with respect to canal tolls, says:
'•It will no doubt be found that the
position is really this: The government
has discussed the subject in council, and
has practically decided to withdraw the
rebate, but has not rendered its decision
to the governor general in official form,
and is therefore unable to announce it.
There is a disposition to assail
the ministers tor what is termed their
position in the back-down. This is not
so. The ministers may be blamed for
entering upon a policy in respect of
which adverse representations have
been made from the other side without
first counting the cost and de
terminining upon the possibility of
continuing it. But it is a false
national pride which insists that they
shall pursue a course which, in the end,
may lead to further difficulties. If the
government intends, as it is believed it
does, to abolish the rebate, it ought to
do so before the American law placing
an embargo on Canadian vessels at the
Sault comes into force."

MOORISH SOLDIERS FALL. •
One Hundred of Them Are Killed

Tangier," Aug. 10.- At 8:30 this
morning the Moorish troops made
another advance in the direction of the
territory occupied by the rebellious
tribesmen. They ascended the hills and
set fire to a number of villages. The
inhabitants lied upon the approach of
the troops. They also set lire to the
bushes to prevent the tribesmen from
finding snelter among them. Two thou
sand of the sultan's troops made two
attacks upon the rebellious Angherite
tribesmen and were each time driven
back in great disorder. Orders were
finally given for the troops to re
treat, and the force, in a
badly demoralized condition, made their
way to the camp at Tangier. Consider
able excitement prevails in- the city, as ;
it is feared that the tribesmen, in the i
first flush of their victory, may attempt
an attack upon the city. The Moorish
soldiers fared very badly in their en

How the Delegates Amused
Themselves While Waiting
fop Their Trains.
Special to the Globe.
Bkaixkkd. Minn., Aug. 10. — The
nomination of Maj. Baldwin for con
gress by the Democrats of this district
yesterday was the cause of general
jubilation and rejoicing last evening
and today, for many of the delegates re
mained ovsr a good part of today, and
all of them were in the city last even
ing. During the early part of the even
ine the nominee was serenaded at the
Arlington by the Brainerd band. and the
entire city seemed to have turned out.
Maj. Baldwin improved the occasion to
make the acquaintance of a great many
people who desired to meet him, and
the result is that there are more Bald
win votes in Brainerd than even the
most enthusiastic friend of the unas
suming nominee would have thought of
claiming.
QThe wisdom of the nomination of
Maj. Baldwin has already been shown
in the general good feeling which fol
lowed among the delegates" from every
part of the district. The bearing of
Maj. Baldwin is such that he impresses
every one at first sight, and they can
not help liking him. That he will prove
a vote-getter no member of yesterday's
convention doubts. Maj. Baldwin
strikes every one as an able, honest,
straightforward mas, and these are the
qualities his friends have claimed for
him. lie is a thoroughly clean man,
and his magnificent war record cannot
but commend him and his party to the
people who nave been accustomed to
the approved methods used by the op
position in their campaigns. The story
of Maj. Baldwin's life is a campaign
document of no small force in itself.
Mayor M. It. Baldwin was born in
Vermont fifty-three years ago, spending
the first eisrht years of his life among
the Green mountains of his native state.
in 1847 his family moved to Wisconsin.
His early education was of the best,
and he shosved great proficiency, always
standing well in his classes. He en
tered the Lawrence university at Ap
pleton, Wis., passing through his soph
omore year, afterwards applying him
self for lour years to practicaland civil
engineering-. He also read law a year
and a halt in the office of ex-Gov. Coles
at Oshkosh, Wis.
When the war broke out youns Bald
win, then a staunch Democrat, as he is
now and always has been, enlisted as a
private ou April 19, 1801. His war rec
ord is one he may well be proud of.
He served four years in the
Second Wisconsin infantry, brig
aded with the famous "Iron
Brigade." At the first battle of Bull
Kun he was wounded slightly, and at
the second battle of Bull Kun was se
riously wounded. At the battle of Get
tysburg he was captured, escaped again
and was recaptured; was confined in
Libbey prison, Macon, Ga., and Colum
bia, S. C. Ho was one of the 200 at Lib
bey prison who drew tickets in the "lot
tery of death." and was one of the
officers who was confined at Charleston,
a. Cm under fire of Union batteries in
retaliation for Confederate officers said
to be under fire at Fortress Monroe.
Baldwin escaped from Columbia prison,
where lie had been confined, and was
recaptured by bloodhounds when within
hearing of Sherman's guns at Savannah.
He was finally exchanged. Such is the
war record of Maj. Baldwin. Enlisting
aa a private, he won his way to the
front by bravery and ability, being hon
orably discharged with the rank of
major.
After the war Maj. Baldwin went into
the railroad business, being general su
perintendent of a railroad in Kansas for
five years. In 1575 he moved into Min
nesota, and became general Northwest
ern agent of the Grand Trunk railway.
In 18S5 he settled in Duluth, and has
resided there ever since. During the
past five years Maj. Baldwin has been,
and is still, president of the chamber of
commerce at Duluth. He is one of the
leading citizens of the city, is univer
sally respected for his probity, gentle
man-like qualities, ability, and, above
ali, his innate modesty. No man ever
heard of a mean act clone by Maj.
Baldwin. He is a consistent Demo
crat, ready at any tinm to serve
his party, either as an hum
ble private or as a leader. It is his
boast that he never sought office, and,
in fact, never held a political office. He
is also proud of his Democracy. "I
went to the war as a Democrat," said
he, "served through the war as a Dem
ocrat, and was honorably discharged.
still a Democrat."
Mnj. Baldwin has a very pleasing ad
dress, is a eood speaker, and has the
happy faculty of interlarding his re
marks with wit and humor. During the
trip of Duluth business men into the
Northwest last fall, Maj. Baldwin was
along, and, as one gentleman expressed
it. "he would start in, when calied upon
to speak, with the statement that he
was not so accustomed to public speak
ing as the lest, and would then pitch in
and srive the best talk of the whole
gang." The major intends to devote
his whole time to the campaign. His
majority in St. Lcuis county bids fair
to exceed even the sanguine predictions
and expectations of his friends.
Owing to the wretched train service
at Brainerd, all the delegates were
obliged to remain over in the city last
evening, and, naturally enough, with
such a crowd of jolly good fellows to
gether, there was considerable fun.
One of the amusing incidents of the
evening, if true, places a horse on either
J. Adam Bede. the eloquent and witty
Duluthian, or else the local band. Mr.
Bede was out taking a constitutional
after dinner last evening when he heard
a souna of music in the distance. He
remembered at once that his friend,
Maj. Baldwin, was to be serenaded, and
he, of course, was determined
that he should not be absent.
He turned his steps in the
direction of the music and was soon
following a crowd of men, women and
children. Mr. Bede did not examine
the make-up of the musicians closely,
being so filled with pleasure that so
many people should be out to honor
Duluth's favorite son. He was mildly
awakened after he had walked a mile
or two in the sand by his friend, P. M.
tlraff, who called out:
"What are you doing out there, Bede?
Are you not going to the serenade?"
■ "Of course 1 am,"' said Bede, "Come
along."
"Hadn't you better come with me
and get out of that procession," an
swered Mr. Graff, laughingly.
This aroused Mr. Bede, who, on look
ing up, found that he had . been follow
ing, not the Brainerd band, but the Sal
vation Army.
Only two sessions of the convention
were down on the programme, but a
third one was held in the evening. As
happened, Donnelly and Girard were
booked for a performance at the opera
house, and nearly everyone of the dele
gates and visiting Democrats decided
to spend their evenme there. The per
formance did not begin until after the
serenade was over, but when it did
commence it was evident that the house
was filled with Democrats. There was
a picture of ' President Harrison . huns
against one of the wnlls, so fixed that
the wind could blow-t hrough. his whis
kers with care, and there were a great
many brieht things said by the leading
members ot the company for the benefit
of the Democratic members of the audi
ence, all of which were vigorously ap
plauded.
The seating of the delegates was
amusing. The two upper boxes, for ex
ample, were filled with the Morrison
delegation, Register of Deeds Henry
Goulet,Peter Medved and Joseph Gross
berg iv one, and FranK W. Lyon and
Senator George Geissel in the other.
"Billy" Quinn, Dr. O'Hair, Sheriff Nu
gent and J. H. Wendell represented
Wright county, and were in what is
generally known as the very fore-front
of the bald-headed row. David T. Cal
houn. Judge Theodore Bruener, J. P.
Fahnlander and E. P. Barn urn were on
hand for old Steams.but did not occupy
adjoining saats. strange to say. Charley
Mood J.P.Wilson, Auditor Galarneault
and John Shuler represented Benton.
while M. F. O'Toole was the handsome
and sturdy representative ot the new
county of ltasca. Andy Gowau was on
hand for Carl ton and William Cordner
looked out for Mi lie Lacs. Judge Tufts,
of Todd, talKed Democracy with A. G.
Broker, of Wadena. between acts. P.
M. Graff and A. F. Taylor, of St. Louis,
were well in front, and when th«
curtain was rung clown joined in the
popular cry for a speech from Frank
Lyon, Hon. J. L. Harwick, of Sher
burne, was present and could not help
thinking of the time when the entire
membership of the two houses of the
legislature attended a performance at
the Metropolitan for the purpose of
gathering information for use in voting
upon the famous anti-tights bill, intro
duced by the senator from Scott.
Although reduced rates were request
ed of the railroads they were denied,
and every delegate had to pay full fare
to and from the convention. Many of
the members of the committee consid
ered this refusal as a discrimination
against the convention. This is prob
ably not the case, but the fact that it
came about as it did shows how neces
sary it is for a railroad to have some
man who keeps posted on such matters.
The St. Louis delegation had a ntim
ber of splendid young workers in its
ranks. It is small wonder that .Repub
lican majorities are dwindling to noth
ing in that county.
The new congressional committee will
be composed of one member from each
county and one at large, to be named by
the chairman of the convention, Hon. D.
T. Calhoun.
The delegates from old Steams
pledged the largest majority in the his
tory of the county for Maj. Baldwin.
