OBSCENITY IN THE 31 AILS.
llcul Williams Is Surprised by a
Sudden Arrest.
Keul Williams was arrested yesterday
bn the postoffice steps upon information
ir.ade by United States District Attorney
Hay to the effect jtuat he had sent two
obscene, lewd and. lascivious letters
through the mails. The authorises have
been watching for Mr.Willlams for sev
eral days, and he was arrested about
2 o'clock yesterday by Deputy United
States Marshal Col. Sheehan. Mr. Will
iams was very Qiuch surprised, as he
did not have the least idea that he was
wanted for the offense charged, lie is
» well dressed man of fifty years, and
deals in horses, lie lives in the city,
and lias feent a livery and sale
barn on Selby avenue. He ad
mitted to have mailed the letters
complained of, but, declared he did not
know he was doing any wrong, from
tile fact that they were sent to his wife
sit Owatonint. Minn. Mr. Williams was
nt a loss to know what to do in the case.
He was willing 10 admit that the ad
dress on the envelopes is in his hand
■willing. He was taken before United
States Commissioner Speucer and his
case continued until Saturday, when he
■\v i l l be present with an attorney and
decide whether to waive a hearing and
let the case go to the federal grand jury
or have an examination. A formal plea
of not guiity was entered yesterday,
and Mr. Williams went out in his buggy
with Col. Sheehan to hunt bondsmen
for his appearance. The bond was
placed at 1300.
The letters were addressed to Mrs. J.
].. Williams, at Owatonna. Mrs. WiU
iains is the third wife of Mr. Williams,
and they have separated. They have
several children. The letters are very
bulky: they were both enclosed in long
envelopes— the postage on one is eight
cents and on the other four cents, and
they were both sent under date of Nov.
11. It seems that Mrs. Williams claims
that she has been annoyed by similar
letters for some time. She finally grew
tired of the annoyance, and sent the
two letters referred to in the informa
tion to Aid. Hickman, who brought the
matter to the attention of the postoffice
authorities.
It certainly took days to write the let
ters, so bulky are they. They are writ
ten on legal cap with a lead pencil.
The pages arc closely written and cross
written, even upon the margins? Many
parts of the letters are underscored
with from one to three marks. The
silliest and vilest of balderdash enters
into the composition. Many parts of it
are attempts at rhyme. The woman is
referred io in the writings as his third
wife, and many disgusting comparisons
are made. Very obscene names and
expressions are used numerous times.
Mr. Williams may have thought he has
the privilege to write as he pleased to
his wife, but the statements in his let
ters are very abusive and absurd, even
in a barroom conversation. His admis
sion of having written the letters is no
credit to anyone under any circum
stances.

Come From Other Cities to
the St. Paul Plow Works
Company.
Tempting: Bids to Take the
Big" Plant to Distant
Cities.
Temporary Arrangements at
North St. Paul or St.
Paul Park.
What the Principal Owners
Say of the New Situa
tion.
Since the destruction by fire of the
St. Paul Plow works two weeks ago
there lias been considerable speculation
as to where and when the plant of that
important concern would be rebuilt.
Its management has been taking orders
since the lire right along for new goods.
These new orders must now aggregate
a value of $100,000, and a temporary
location either at St. Paul Park or North
St. Paul will probably be decided upon
this week. Negotiations have been un
der way with b Jth of those places.
In the meantime, it has been learned,
other cities nave been making strenuous
efforts to secure the benefits of such an
extensive enterprise. Jts scope and
value iseein to be quite as well under
stood abroad as at home. The employ
ment of 200 skilled workmen in manu
facturing tliat made an output of SIiOO.OOO
to §400,000 last year, and gave strong
promise of an output of $500,000
this year, is temoting to Eastern,
as well as to Western investors
in industrial enterprises. The output
of the St. Paul Plow works increased
over 75 per cent during the first ten
months of 1S!):.\ us compared with the
same period of 1891, and at no increase
in the amount of the pay roll. The se
cret of this fact lies in the introduction
of the piece work system by the present
management instead of the "day work"
that was the system in 18!)1. The em
ployes worked to better advantage, and
made more per capita this year than
they made under the old method. The
concern had overcome all obstacles, and
did well, financially, during IS'.)2. At
the time of the lire its prospects were
very flattering.
Thus it is that other cities are trying
to buy this enterprise away from St.
Paul. Its vice president ami general
manager, Charles Joy (who is aiso pres
idout'of the State bank of this city), is
known to ba Quite loyal to St. Paul, and
he has won notable success here in
various enterprises. In order to learn
somewhat concerning the efforts to get
the plow works away from St. Paul, a
Globe reporter saw Mr. Joy yesterday.
Hf admitted that the reports were true,
and in response to a request showed
A Pile ol Letters
surprising in their number and offers.
The most important were from Elwood.
md.; Louisville, Ky. ; East St. Louis.
111., and from as far west as the state of
Washington. One of these offers £20,000
cash bonus, a deed to all the land neces
sary and I=loo for each man employed by
the company in the new location. An
other offers forty acres of land within
the city limits and any other concessions
within reason. It is from a man who
has known Mr. Joy from boyhood. . An
other offers a larger casli bonus than the
one mentioned above, and still another
offers ?115 per employe. The Indiana
town will give both natural gas and
building sites free, together with other
tempting inducements. The only in
ference is that Chicago and these other
places have learned by experience the
value of having such manufacturing
plants within their limits and are reach
ing out for more. It may as well be
stated that the SIOO per employe offer
came for a location within the city
limits of Chicago. Particularly good
railway facilities were included in al
most every instance.
Mr. Joy said that only for certain con
siderations he would give but little
thought to such letters. In view of the
fact, however, that neither Mr. Dawson
nor himself would care to handle such
an extensive enterprise alone, lie had
given some attention to the opportunity
oi' forming a new large company either
here or elsewhere. The business of the
plow works has not been limited to the
manufacture of plows. It also made
cultivators, harrows, seeders, bob-sleds,
and all implements adapted to agricult
ure, especially for the Northwest. It
Avas turning out over $1,000 worth daily
previous to the fire.
The treasurer of the plow works, and
a large owner in the same, is Hon. Will
iam Dawson, president of the Bank of
Minnesota. To obtain his views the re
porter saw him, with the following le
sult. Mr. Dawson said:
Mr. I>uwsoirs Views.
"I am getting along in years,aud have
been getting out of active business. 1
feel the same way now about the plow
works. The concern had got to a point
where it was paying well under the
able management of Mr. Joy. and it had
splendid prospects for next year and
the years to come. 1 shall pocket my
loss, which was the tire loss, and shall
not stand in the way of Mr. Joy should
he decide to continue the business; but
1 would be glad to see him remain in St.
Paul. He has shown splendid ability in
directing the manufacturing. I knew
he would before he took hold
of the plow works. The bus
iness is established. It lnis
gone through the periods of incubation
and growth ami has become a marked
success. By the way Mr. Joy is taking
orders tor new goods 1 think the busi
ness will be continued right along but
just where I cannot say. The insur
ance matters will be settled soon — the
loss was much greater than the insur
ance—and then a definite location will
come in for consideration. St. Paul
men, myself included, have put a good
deal of money into the Wooll Harvester
works and other enterprises, but it
seems that, as a general rule, they had
but a meagre conception of the impor
tance and value of the plow works,
which are known, not only in the North
west, but also in tlie states of the East
and South, where its products also sold
readily. As I said before, I hope Mr.
Joy will see his way clear to remain in
St." Paul.

WANTS A WIGWAM.
ICvanselist 3Iill» Proposes an Im
mense Auditorium, to Cost
$fi,OOO,
In Which He Will Rouse the
Wicked of St. Paul to
Duty.
It seems that St. Paul is very soon to
have a building which will seat from
8,000 to 10,000 people. The great evan
gelist, Key. B. F. Mills, arrived yester
day to prepaae for opening on May 10 a
revival to last six weeks or two months,
lie has, it is said, declared that there is
not a building laree enough in the city
to accommodate the audiences he in
tends to have. It is reported lhat he has
in the shortspace of a day convinced the
church peaple that an immense wigwam
should be put up. and they will at once
proceed with its construction, the cost
to be about $0,000. The evangelist de
si ivs to bring out before he has gone far
audiences numbering about IO,():)O pert
pie, and the wigwam will be built to ac
commodate his bright hopes. Mr. Mills
is a fine-looking gentleman, and from
the reputation which has preceded him
he will no doubt stir up the greatest re
vival ever known in St. Paul.
The reverend gentleman was met at
the depot upon his arrival by Key. Dr.
Inirersoll and Rev. Carnahan. He was
taken to the People's and then to the
Central Presbyterian church. He said
that neither hJuse would meet the re
quirements in size. lie was taken to
the Y. M. C. A. rooms, where he was
met by the committee. In his address to
them, he said:
"1 have been told that this is a very
hard town, but that is what they say of
every town to which I have been called.
Some way it seems to be a habit to re
fer to every town as particularly hard,
bat that has nothing to do with the
matter. I think, from the location of
this city, and the intelligent, enarget.ic
class of people you have here, it is a
most favorable Held in which to work,
and I regard theprospscts of success as
very bright.indeed."
He outlined his work and the prep
arations over which he will have super
vision between now and the time for
opening the revival. Three weeks be
fore the time of opening, revival union
meetings will begin in tlie churches of
the city, afternoon and evening. Mr.
Mills will be engaged in person during
the winter in Omaha, Minneapolis and
Milwaukee, and from ttmse points will
direct the movements in St. Paul.
At 4 o'clock Thursday afternoon the
pp.stors and two representatives from
each church will meet in the Y. M. C.
A. parlors to form a general committee
to build the auditorium. They will ap
point an executive committee and begin
systematically. They congratulate
themselves on securing the evangelist
for May, as it will not be necessary to
heat the building then.
Last evening Mr. Mills went to Min
neapolis to arrange for his meetings
there, which begin in March, from
there he goes to Omaha to Droceed with
his revival, which is now arranged.
The auditorium, after tlie revivals are
over, wiil be kept for use of large gath
erings during the summer.

Editor of the Herald Charged
With Libeling A. H.
Roger.3.
James 11. Barns, editor of the St.
Paul Herald, was indicted by the grand
jury yesterday on the charge of criminal
libel. His accuser is Arthur n. Rogers.
It is stated that Rogers wagered Si, ooo
that Burns would not be elected county
auditor, and worked vigorously to de
feat him. In the first colunih of Satur
day's issue of the Herald appeared the
follow ing item:
"Special effort was made during the
recent campaign by a certain clique of
persons in St. Paul to vilify by sneak
ing insinuations the personal character
of the Democratic candidate for county
auditor : one of the filthiest of these
characters was that known as
Arthur Rogers; when a creature with
such a record as his circulates
through the city of St. Paul throw
ing tilth at "the editor of this
paper he can prepare himself for a
show-down. My personal reputation is
worth as much to my family as is the
case with any member of the gang of
filth throwers to whom this article
alludes, and I propose to show up a few
of them in plain English, that those who
do not know me personally may judge
of the character of those who had so
much to say about other people's "per
sonal reputation' during the past cam
paign."
Rogers is a wealthy rar.n and the son
in-law of Capt. James King. There is
music in the air, and a sensational trial
is threatened. The indictment has not
been announced, but the bill was found
as mentioned. Burns will be arrested
this morning.

TO INFUSE NEW LIFE.
A Plan to Bake Joseph Mc-
Kibben President of the
Y. M. C. A.
Ha Will Acsept If the B)ar3
Will Square Up and
Quit.
Necessity of Doing 1 Something*
to Infuse Life Into ths
Semi-Cornse.
Prospect That in a Few
Months Great Changes
Will Occur.
Some time past it has been rumored
that the Y. M. C. A. of St. Paul is about
to undergo a complete reorganization,
with the hope of Infusing new life into
it. A number of years the old institu
tion has been m a state of semi-con
sciousness, living from hand to mouth,
and getting a skim-milk existence at
that. There was too much shaking
hands and not enough keen intelligence
among its devotees and hangers-on. Or,
to use the language of a prominent
member of a leading church, "There is
a surfeiting expression of goodness
about nearly every one met
there. If they hadn't so much
goodness and a keener judgment
of human naturo they would attract
more people and awaken an interest
that woukl amount to something." This
same gentleman continued: "To the
average American of the world a goody
pood expression is repulsive, and his
first impulse is to guy the Dersou who
meets him with it. It seems to me that
the purpose of tne Y. M. C. A. should
be to attract people of the world into its
quarters without any display of inten
tion to make Christians of them; simply
to make it an attractive place to them,
so that they may prefer to go there in
stead of to worse places. Make
Christians of them by the charm
of a pure, home-like atmosphere
rather than by preaching to
them. Some can be reached by
preaching the srospel to them from the
start; but thousands more would turn
away in distrust if approached so sum
marily. The management of the Y. M.
C. A. should be full of tact. Just a shade
of worldly air about the rooms of the in
stitution is worth vastly more than
countenances scft'used with goodness.
A faculty of telling good stories which
do not savor of vicious tilings, and {riv
ing the impression that one is agoodtel
low, is practical and useful."
But, however, certain it is that the Y.
M. C. A. of St. Paul has been far from
successful during the past six or eight
years. Some six or more years ago the
society purchased a good-sized piece of
real estate at the northeast corner of
Minnesota and Tenth streets for 3=51,500,
and went to the further expense ot
$18,600 in excavating a basement and
putting in foundations and a basement
hnli. The society is now in debt ?03,000
on that property and $15,000 for cur
rent expenses. That, in brief, is toe
financial situation of the institution,
and from a worldly point of view
it is bankrupt. When they beean at
the corner of Tenth and Minnesota it
was the pround intention to erect a
mammoth building in which should oe
a magnificent library, gymnasium,
baths, etc. Ihe intention was beauti
ful to contemplate, and the outcome-is
lamentable. Where the fault lay it is
not worth while to consider: what can
be done to remedy the situation is all
the promoters of the institution are
talking over.
m«Kibben Proposed
The proposition now made is to elect
Joseph McKibben president. It comes
from different reliable sources that Mr.
McKibuen has expressed a willingness
to assume the duties of the position if
the old board of directors will clean up
the current expense account of §15,000
and step out bodily so that he may have
a board of directors of his own choosing.
It is further stated that the board of di
rectors have manifested a perfect will
ingness to accept these terms and are now
industriously trying to raise the $15,000.
It wa9 intimated Sunday that they have
raised all but about $4,000, and believe
they will have this also soon. They are
holding nightly meetings with a view of
being able to step out within a few days.
It was intimated yesterday that tiie
matter would be consummated last
evening, but the secretary stateel after
the meeting of last evening was over
that there was nothing to give out, int j.
mating that new officers were not ye t
elected.

THE OLD DEPOT TROUBLES.
The Kansas City Renews Its Ef-
fort to Secure Rights.
The Chicago, St. Paul & Kansas City
Railway company has filed a lengthy
and bulky complaint against the St.
Paul Union Depot company. The cause
has been to the supreme court of the
state. The pleadings and exhibits cover
145 pages of printed matter. The con
troversy grows out of privileges
claimed by the plaintiff in the union
depot of St. Paul. The questions sub
mitted to the court are as follows: Is
the Minnesota & Northwestern Kail
road company, or the Kansas City com
pany as its grantee entitled to the bS's}{
shares of the union depot stock before,
independently of any payments made
pending past litigation, it shall have
paid, or ottered to pay, the Union Depot
company £58,333.33 as the prescribed
price or the shares named, and shall
have offered to execute the lease named?
Did the Minnesota & Northwestern
Railroad company and the Kansas City
company successively use the depot
under the resolution of the union depot
beard as an acceptance of the rights?
What additional rights were saved by
the words "or otherwise"' introduced
into the written acceptance?
Was the 5533.33 paid monthly pend l
iiig the action as an absolute payment
or as a temporary deposit to the credit
of the railroad company to abide tne
event of the suit?
Up to said sum of ?51,07U.14 is the
Kansas City company entitled to a
credit for such monthly sums of ?833.88
each, as severally partial payments
of money for said 5S3>« shares. The
judgment is to be based on the answers
to the above questions?

TOMMY BRADY IXDICTtiD.
Charged With Appropriating
V : Money Paid for Taxe3. maw
Thomas J. Brady, who was at one
time a clerk in County Treasurer Nel
son's office, was arrested about 5 o'clock
last evening and placed in jail. The
grand.; jury returned four indictments
against him. It is asserted that Brady
collected taxes, and gave receipts there
for without accounting for the money.
In one instance it Is said that Mrs. Nel
lie M. AVeide cave him $103 to pay cur
rent taxes, aud he gave her a receipt
without having the money credited up
in the treasurer's • office. In another
case it is claimed that Thomas Manning
gave him $34.50 to pay delinquent taxes
at the county auditor's office, and no ac
counting was made to the county. It
was too late to give bail last niuht, and
Brady was locked up until this morn
ing, when bail will doubtless be given
and a defense made. Brady is a well
known ■ young politician of the Ninth
ward, and was one of the assistant sec
retaries of the late Democratic na
tional convention. .

Health Officials Posted to Look
Out for Small-Pox Symp
toms.
State Secretary Hewitt Semis the
Warning to Dr.
Hoyt.
Is St. Paul to be subjected to a small
pox epidemic? While it is possible, it
seems quite improbable. Secretary
Hewitt, of Ihe state board of health,
however, sees the necessity of rigid
precautionary measures.
Yesterday Dr. Hewitt notified the
health officer of St. Paul that immi
grants were on route for this city who
had either been exposed to or who had
suffered from sinail-pox. Dr. Hoyt im
mediately took steps to protect the city
from the threatened epidemic. Com
missioner Sinks was detailed to watch
all incoming trains, and he spent the
day at the union depot. The railway
officials have volunteered to contribute
every aid in their power to protect peo
ple from the contagion if the story be
well founded. Still, nothing confirms
the report that the immigrants who
have really either been exposed or have
been afflicted with the disease are en
route for St. Paul, and it may all prove
a canard. Not many months ago
alarmists insisted that the cholera
scourge would sweep with relentless
strides through the city, but it never
came, and it is doubtful if the small-pox
' story will culminate in anything more
i serious.
