» CYGLISTS WIH OUT THE PROPOSED BICYCLE ORDI- NANCE SHELVED BY THE COMMITTEE. ANOTHER ONE TO BE DRAWN BY A COMMITTEE OF ASSEMBLY- MEN, ALDER AND "WHEELMEN. CURFEW ORDINANCE IS A GO. It Im Recommended to the Hoard of Aldermen for Pas- sage. The board of aldermen committee •n streets held a protracted session yesterday, devoting its time chiefly to the consideration of the proposed bicycle and curfew ordinances. The latter ordinance was recommended to pass, though it is the general be lief that it can never secure a ma jority vote in the board of alder men. Furthermore, should the board pass it and the assembly concur, the mayor would veto it, for he has al ready declared the measure imprac ticable and silly. The bicycle ordinance drew a good house, and provoked a lengthy dis cussion. The committee did not take final action upon it, but the indica tions are that the wheelmen of St. Paul will succeed in defeating the ordinance, which prohibits the use of all sidewalks within the city lim its, and secure the passage of a law that will permit the riding of bicycles upon the sidewalks of un paved and untraveled streets. The delegation of wheelmen pres ent reinforced a long petition against the ordinance. Theodore G. Walther, vice president of the C. W. Hackett company, presented the petition, which set forth under numerical heads the arguments against exclud ing all sidewalks. The principal arguments were as fol lows: First, it was contended that those who live in the suburban districts could not possibly ride to their places of business through the deep mud that fills the streets In the spring and fall; Second, by that while accidents on sidewalks were rare they would be rarer still If the existing ordinance of 1892 were enforced as to the provision requiring the attached lighted lamp and the bell; third, there were miles of sidewalks on which scarcely any one Is ever seen walking; fourth, many lady riders who would not Injure any one on sidewalks, might be hurt themselves if compelled to ride in the streets; fifth, many streets were too rough to ride safely upon. Z~' T Mr. Walther made a speech in be half of the petitioners. He called at tention to the fact that bicycle riding was not confined to a lawless class. On the contrary, the devotees of this recreation were ladles and gentlemen who had respect for the law, and were therefore entitled to some considera tion. All were willing to carry bells and lamps and to conform to the speed limit, but they thought they ought to be allowed to ride on sidewalks of un improved streets, which sidewalks are comparatively unused. Mr. Walther said that there were 8,000 people in St. Paul who use bicycles, and that enough (Ot them paid their share of the cost of sidewalks to entitle them to some rights. ■ * — "* ■----.- - - .-_--- Thomas Cochran spoke for the "bicycle as against the proposed ordi nace. He believed legitimate sport ought to be encouraged, not discour aged. He could not see any reasons why the miles of almost deserted side walks should not be used by the riders of wheels. He favored a reasonable law, providing for lamps and bells, etc., arid believed that the bicyclers would help -enforce such a law. Then Aid. Hare spoke up. The alder man does not ride a bicycle himself, because, as he explained, it looks like too hard work, judging from the puf fing and blowing he has noted as the wheelmen pass him. Aid. Hare also "Made a remark, associating bicycle t»ders with silk stockings. Thomas Cochran resented the lnsinu- BN.'on that none but the aristocracy be stexde the wheel. Bicycle riding, Mr. Cfi«Jhran said, was not ,confined to one •Cass. All classes were included. It Was a business proposition. Aid. Miiham wound up the discussion with a motion to refer the whole mat ter to a special committe?of six, to con sist of two members from each body of the city council, and two from the wheelmen of St. Paul. The motion pre vailed and the committee will meet and agree upon an ordinance to be submit ted at the next regular meeting of the board of aldermen. •'T'-",".- 7 Aid. Hare's curfew ordinance was next considered. Rev. David Morgan, of the Bethel Home, was there to talk for it when the time came. Aid. Hare at once precipitated a discussion by moving that the ordinance be rec mended to pass. The ordinance in brief provides that children under six teen years of age shall be kept off the streets from 9 p. m. until C a. m. un less accompanied by parent or guard lan, or proper person of lawful age, or dispatched on an errand, etc. For the first offense, the boy or girl is to be sent or taken home, but a second offense means the arrest of the child. Aid. Miiham and Wolf objected to the provision of the ordinance author izing policemen to arrest children found violating the ordinance. Aid. Ehrmanntraut, though not a member of the committee, was permitted to express his views. He thought it un wise to pass such an ordinance, and he was also confident that It would be Impracticable if not impossible to enforce It. Rev. David Morgan was on hand to champion the ordinance. He cited statistics of Toronto showing that the existence of a curfew law there had reduced the juvenile jail population 50 per cent. Mr. Morgan maintained that the curfew ordinance would as sist the police in that it would keep mischievious boys off the streets. As for arresting the children, Mr. Morgan said that there had not been an ar rest in Stillwater and Red Wing, where a curfew law existed. The committee finally recommended by a unanimous vote, that the ordi nance pass. The committee recommended the passage of an ordinance granting to Messrs. Bohrer & Scannel a**ive-year lease of the land on the West side, whereon is located the artesian well plant formerly used by Messrs. Bohrer & Moriarity. The land belongs to the city, so the corporation attorney says, though Mr. Moriarity declares that It belongs to the estate of Julia Moriar ity. * CLOUGH WILL ACT. tVill Call a Conference as Outlined Last Week. Gov. Clough will Issue within a day or two the call, which was referred to by the Globe last week, for a con- ference on the Idea of the Northwest . em exposition, which It is proposed to hold in the interests of the great Kortlvwest. The governor's call will *,<; addressed to all of the governors of all the Northwestern states, and the leading county and . cltjr^officlals. The date of the conference wiß.be set for either late in November or early in December, r-,."' .; 7 '.'-v sj"i *»',"- This exposition idea is awakening a great deal of interest, not only in the city and state, but In adjoining states as well. Already Mayor Smith has been requested to name a committee of promlent citizens on behalf of the city to consider the matter and formu late a plan for getting the exposition started. It is understood he has de cided upon the following gentlemen: O. O. Cullen, J. J. Parker, Joseph Ehr manntraut, James E. Markham, Den nis Sullivan. F. G. Brady, E. C. Rog ers, John Copeland and W. A. Van Slyke. MINNESOTA HISTORY. SuKKCHtcil That Scholars- Receive Special Instructions! on It. Receiving and exchanging compli ments, and the passage of some resolu tions on pertinent matters, constitute the principal work done by the direc tors of the chamber of commerce at their meeting yesterday. . E. W. Peet introduced a resolution thanking President Lpwry for the courtesy shown in furnishing interur ban cars at the time of the visit of the Episcopal delegates; and also thanking the citizens who responded with car riages or money to hire some for the drive. It was adopted. '.r^' On motion of Thomas Cochran the following resolution was passed: "Resolved, That, in. view of the an nual encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic, to be held In St. Paul in September, 1890, the board of edu cation be requested to have prepared a series of history lessons recount ing what Minnesota did toward the suppression of the war of the re bellion and Introduce them into the proper grades of our public schools, that our boys and girls may become fa miliar at this particular time with the part their own state had in the preser vation of the nation's life." Several other resolutions were in troduced and adopted. Secretary Beaumont tendered his resignation, which was referred to the executive committee. '■ ] An invitation was received to appoint delegates to the Trans-Mississippi Commercial congress to be held at Omaha, Nov. 25, but no action was taken. Chairman Smalley filled out a num ber of committees with the following appointments: Education— Olm stead; Twin Cities— Mr. Archer; in surance and fire department— Mr. Moreland; state fair— C. M. Griggs. On Grand Army encampment the following committee was appointed: Messrs. Espy, Sanborn, Bishop, Castle, Jefferson, Hodgson and Andrews. On mid-continent exposition; Messrs. Peet, Gotzian, Moreland, Noyes and Carpenter. Further time was granted the com mittee investigating telephone charges. On motion of Mr. Tallmadge the chamber adopted the "center of Norm America" button as the official button to be worn on all occasions. TWENTY-FIVE YEAR LIMIT Placed on the Hoist nnd Derrick Company's Lease. The assembly committee on streets held its regular meeting yesterday aft ernoon. The first matter taken up was the ordinance prohibiting the street railway company from sprinkling salt on the tracks ln the winter time. Supt. Hield, who was present, explained to the committee that it was impossible to run cars on schedule time without using salt to melt the ice formed around the rails. Mr. Strouse was of the opinion that the sprinkling of salt on the tracks should be restricted to grades. He did not believe it necessary to use it along level surfaces. ... Chairman Aroi3in suggested that the ordinance be amended so as 'to pro hibit the sprinkling; of salt on the bridges and upon all tracks save where the grades are steep. After a brief discussion, the ordinance was referred to the city engineer, city attorney and the chairman of the committee with in structions to make Buch modifications as might be found advisable. The committee once more considered the ordinance granting the American Hoist and Derrick company a fifty year lease of certain pieces of land on the West side levee. The opinion of the corporation attorney as to the lia bility of the city In case of damage to private property which might result from high water caused by filling in the river, was submitted. It was to the effect that the city would not be liable. On the contrary, the sole lia bility for such damage would rest with the lessee. '_ .--._ 7 Then the question of granting a lease for fifty years was discussed. * Mr. Strouse moved to grant a lease of twenty-five years on all the property. Mr.; Reardon emphatically opposed granting a lease for fifty years. Mr. Copeland said that twenty-five years was long enough time. At the end of that period, the city would undoubted ly renew the lease, if the plant proved a thriving one. The representatives of the company labored hard with the committee to se cure the recommendation of the pro posed ordinance, granting a fifty-year lease. They intimated that they might remove their plant to Chicago in the event of unfavorable action. This,hew ever, did not change the opinion of the committee. Personally the mem bers of the committee favored the American Hoist and Derrick company, but they deemed it unwise to grant a lease that would bind a future genera tion. The majority favored twenty-five years. Mr. Robb, however, thought they should have a fifty-year lease, The motion of Mr. Strouse to amend the ordinance by substituting a twen ty-five year for a fifty-year lease pre vailed by & vote of four to one. A new ordinance will accordingly be prepared embodying the desired change. The resolution instructing the city clerk to advertise for bid/3 for con structing an iron or a wooden bridge across Raymond avenue was consider ed, together with the opinion of the city attorney, that the city would be compelled to pay the entire cost of a new bridge, inasmuch as the railroad companies had secured their rights of way there before' the avenue was open ed at this point. The resolution was finally referred back to the city en gineer and corporation attorney with Instructions to report to the commit tee before the next meeting of the as-> sembly. City Engineer Rundlett said that further Investigation seemed to show that the city would not be oblig ed to stand over two-thirds of the cost of the bridge. THAT RICE STREET MAIN. Efforts Reins Made to Settle the ■Difficulty. The board of connty commissioners held a special session yesterday, to con sider the difficulty over the Rice street rood improvement, the work having been stopped by an injunction of the court restraining the contractors from doing anything that might endanger the city water main laid across the swamp on piles. The matter was re ferred to a committee consisting of Commissioner Wright, McCarron and Ness, and the county surveyor, to con fer with the water board and endeavor to arrive at some satisfactory under standing so that the work may pro- The persons against whom were re subject of modifying Contractor Hueb ner's contract.

Gov't Report IXnftfaJ Baking "^^ .Z.J---. .....r-. -,:•],. ' ABA(S>sLWTE_Y PORE TIRED Of OFFICE. REPRESENTATIVE RHAINERD, OF STEELE COUNTY, HAS HAD ENOUGH OF IT. SOME POLITICAL GOSSIP; SENATORS DAVIS AND PETTI- GREW TALK OVER THE SIT- UATION. AN HOUR AT THE HOTELS. T. H. Glliuonr, of Winnipeg. Talks J About the Manitoba School Question. Representative Brainerd, of Steele county, must be regarded as some- what of a curiosity in politics. He resides at Blooming Prairie, where ! he conducts a banking and lum- j ber Dustiness. Up to the fall of '94 he had never mixed up in politics to i any great exten-t. Steele county had . been represented by a Democrat in | the legislature of '93, and in '94 the | Democrats nominated Mayor Twy- \ ford, of Owatonna, a very strong ! and popular man. As the best man j to beat him the Republicans settled "upon Brainerd. He did not want to j run, but finally consented. lit was j not a Democratic year, and Twy- ford was beaten. Mr. Brainerd made a very conscientious and faithful representative; but one: term was plenty for him. Speaking with a Globe reporter yesterday, he said he does not wanlt a second term, and will not try for it. "To some men cjbeholding may have attractions, but for me it has none. Never before was I placed in a position where I felt that I could not pilitch in and do good work. For some reason I failed in health and general vigor while sitting in that poorly ventila-ted chamber, and, . while I enjoyed the campaign, I did not enjoy the session. I have had enough of it, and shall not try for a re-election." * * * Of the gubernatorial candidates ! Mr. Brainerd had this to say: "We ! have two candidates in our part of i the state, John L. Gibbs, who lives | a few miles from me, and Capt. Van ! Sant, of Winona, Mr. Gibbs is a strong man and of a conservative temperament. He would make a very .Kate and competent executive. Capt. Van Sant is perhaps the bet- ter campaigner of the two, and has a very taking manner in his political work. Both are well known through the state, and it is impossible to say just what effect their residence so close together is going to have on the vote in convention. Mr. Gibbs will have no difficulty in securing a delegation from his own immediate section, and the captain will very likely find clear sailing over his way. Both have been speaker of the house, Gibbs several times, and there seems j little reason to doubt that both will ! have an influential following in the convention. Of the chances of Gov. Clough and other candidates I know little or nothing." * * * Ex-District Attorney George N. Bax ter, ex-Senator Sabin and United States Senator Pettigrew were three notable figures about the Merchants' yesterday afternoon". Judge Baxter has tabooed politics to devote himself to his law business. Sabin was fired bodily out of politics, but persists in breaking back in at every opportunity. His latest) ."rebuff, 'when 'the State League of Republican Clubs refused to do better than make him an alter nate to the Cleveland convention, will not, it Is said, by his friends, prevent him from taking a very active part in the party conventions next year, espe cially if he succeeds in getting onto his feet financially again. Pettigrew, the "Pickerel statesman," has the gen eral appearance of a clerk or a teach er, or a lay preacher; but he is a manipulator of political wires, who Is looked up to by his party in South Da kota, 7 He is looking after Senator Da vis* presidential boom in the South state,; and never comes to town that he does not confer with the Minne sota statesman. They dined together yesterday, but, of course, the subject of conversation was strictly private * * *-.■'*. T. H. Gilmour, of Winnipeg, is at the Ryan. He reports that the people I of Manitoba expect an amicable settle ment of the school question. He al luded to the fact that while Lieut Gov. Patterson is a Conservative, his constitutional advisers, the Greenway cabinet, are Liberals. "Notwithstand ing that fact," he continued, "there is now no reason to expect extreme ac tion of any kind. • I notice by the Globe that even Wilfred Laurier, leader of the Liberal, or opposition party, in the . Dominion, parliament, concedes that the remedial order was a mistake; and that a settlement must be based upon questions of fact rather than of law. That is true. The Cath olics have rights, and in the end I think justice will be -done in such a way that all parties will be satisfied." * » * "Doctor Bob," otherwise Dr. R. S. Bole, is one of the best listeners in the world. He seldom makes a talk of more than a sentence or two ; but yes terday he found himself in a congenial group in the lobby of the Windsor and told some stories that surprised his hearers. It seems that -years ago Dr. Bole used to pride himself on his ability as a hunter. One fall he went up to the Saskatchewan, country for big game, and after much trial several deer and one bear were bagged. They were hung up on two trees close to the river, but when the hunters went after their game they couldn't find even the trees on whiGh the carcases were left hanging. There was no way to solve the mystery, and the hunters gave up in disgust and started for home. "Well, we were sere," says Dr. Bole, "but when we got to the nearest town on the river our" anger was softened by an Invitation to a feast on a boat at the dock. We did not know just Where she had come from, but the feast was the finest a hungry" man "ever sat down to. The denouement came after the boat had departed. We had noticed a gang saw in complete working order on the boat and a pile of sawed wood on. the deck. When it Was too late to protest a friend informed us we had been eat ing our own game.. The boat had : come along In our absence, and In ! seeking for trees to cut down for fire- wood the crew had found our game. j To make the thing real good they had chopped the trees out slick and clean, J covered the place carefully and moved ,on with both fuel and food. I never went hunting big game since." » • » At the Merchants'— J. R. Howard, At the Merchants'— J. R. Howard, Sauk Center; George C. Howe, Duluth; Wlllam. Mackenzie, Grafton, N. D. ; R. F.

There is an aftermath to that syna gogue row on the West side levee last 1 Thursday night. It developed yester- day afternoon, when a petition, signed by numerous members, of the congre gation, was presented to the mayor, charging Officer James Hurley with wrongfully arresting George Freyer, one of the three combatants, who ap peared in the municipal court on Fri day morning. Freyer was found not guilty and discharged. The other two belligerents, Messrs. Laven and Lie- bowitz, were fined $5 and $10 respect- I ively. Laven was found guilty of in | terfering with an officer. j The signers of the petition declare 1 that Officer Hurley arrested Mr. Feyer and Mr. Laven without a warrant, and ! allege that he did so without having j witnessed the disturbance. Therefore they demand an Investigation as to the arrest of Freyer. They also argue that because Freyer was acquitted of disorderly conduct, there was no oc casion for an arrest, and therefore Laven could not be guilty of resisting an officer. The mayor will promptly investigate the matter. .7 1 CHANCE FOR SCHOLARS. Prizes for Essays on the Declara tion of Independence.
