'CLUBMAN IN COURT.
llitrU'lK'li I'fi i-uliiii-Kt Aecnued of
(rnelty to Animals.
Harleigh Parkhurst, a member of the
Mlnnekahda club, with npartments at the
Hampshire Arms, was before judge Holt
yesterday on the charge of maltreating
a horse belonging to C. B. Dickens, the
liveryman. It appears that the hor^e
was recently hired for a cross country
hunt, and when the animal was returned
It was in a badly used-up condition, the
result being that Mr. Parkhurst was ar
rested for cruelty. He pleaded not guil
ty., and the case will be heard tomorow.
Indicted for Shipping Fish.
The recent grand jury returned an in
dictment against Danforth Elithorp, man
ager of the Piatt company, of this city,
on the charge of violating the law
which prohibits the shipment of lish out
of the state, unless taken by the angler
for his own private use.
It is claimed that the company had
boxed a quantity of pickerel, pike, crop
pies and bullheads, which were caught in
Minetonka, and which they were about
to ship out of the state. Mr. Elithorp en
tered a plea of not guilty.

Late yesterday afternoon fire in the
five-story brick building, 317-319 First ave
nue north, occupied by McDonald Bros.,
dealers in crockery, glassware and kin
dred goods, did about $5,000 damage. Of
this amount about $500 damage was done
to the building itself, while the balance
of the loss will be upon the stock. The
loss is protected by an insurance of $13,
--500 placed on the building, which Is own
ed by Eastern parties, represented by E.
A. Merrill. The stock in this building
and the adjoining building, also occupied
by McDonald Bros., is insured for about
$100,000.
The basement of the building was
stocked with original packages of shades,
white crockery and crates of fresh straw.
James Thornton, a packer, was in the
basement yesterday afternoon with a
lighted lantern. In Borne way Thornton
stumbled and fell, breaking the lantern
and setting fire to some loose straw, j
which quickly communicated to the
crates. Owing to the inflamable con
tents of the basement the fire spread rap
idly, and when the department arrived
dense smoke was pouring up out of the
basement. For a short time it looked as i
though the fire would make its way to j
the upper floors and the water tower was
placed in position and connected with
hose in preparation for a bad fight. The
great quantity of water poured into the
basement had the effect of drowning the
fire, however, and within half an hour
the fire was practically out, having failed
to set above the first floor.
TWO CLAIMANTS.
There Are Rivals for the Kstate Left
by Jennie Jones.
A private detective by the name of
Charles Brown, said to be working for a
firm of Minneapolis attorneys, is expect
ed to arrive in company with William C.
Colvin, an East St. Louis teamster, who
Is to file a claim as legal heir to the
estate of Jennie Jones, who lived on I
Main street, valued at some $35,000, of
which JIS.OOO is in cash.
Colvin claims that in Infancy he was
adopted by a St. Louis family named i
Cox, at the request of Judge Colvin, of j
St. Louis. He ran away at the age of j
nine, and is now married and has four j
children. He bore the name of Clarke !
until three years ago, when he adopted ;
the name of Colvin. He is said to have
possession of letters written him fre- '
quently by Jennie Jones, who signed her- ■
self as Clarke and inclosed remittances, j
Those who knew Jennie Jones say they j
were never aware that she had a son.
She has an adopted son, now fifteen years
of age, whom she took-charge of when he
was two years old, and it is said that
while she is known to have made wills
leaving her property to this adopted son
none of them can be found. Afer her
death a well known Minneapolitan was
appointed administrator. He knows
nothing of the existence of this Colvin,
but states that if he has the letters
claimed authenticity of the handwriting
can be easily proved. The woman was
forty-seven years old at the time of her
death, and, according to Colvin, she
would have been but seventeen at the
time of his birth. While by no means im
possible, this is regarded as improbable.
XEW YORK AVAXTS MONEY.
AVlllinsr to Pay Three Per Cent on
Daily Bulnncen.
Yesterday City Treasurer re
ceived a letter from the United States
Mortgage Trust Company of Xew York
which has some of the city funds on de
posit, saying that the company would
pay 3 per cent interest on dally balances
Some time ago the council passed a reso
lution demanding 3 per cent Interest on
city funds. The Minneapolis banks, or the
majority of them, refused to pay interest
The result has been that no interest has
been paid on city funds deposited in the
state. Treasurer Hulbert has found it
necessary to carry some money in Chi
cago and New York and has received in
terest, on it varying from 1 to 1% per cent.
But of late New York has been pinched
for money and hence the voluntary in
crease by the United States .Mortgage
Trust company of the rate of interest on
the city funds on deposit with it
The Minneapolis banks are filled with
money and they are refusing to pay in
terest on deposits of all kinds. They don't
need money and do not hesitate to tell
their patrons so..
WARD «fc WATSON INDICTED.
Grand Jury Kan Charged Them With
Knibczzlement.
Ward and Watson, the Napoleons of
finance, who initiated the Minneapolis
public into the mysteries cf "Arbitrage,"
have been indicted by the grand jury in
the charge of embezzlement. In nearly
every instance the sucker signed a paper
which made him a special partner In the
firm, and there was no recourse for him.
In one case, however, this little formality
was dispensed with and a man who put
in something like J2.C00 for investment re
ceived a receipt and signed no contract.
Ward & Watson were to buy stocks for
him but they did not, and hence are
charged with embezzlement. The man
who lost the money, by the way, is em
ployed in a Minneapolis bank, and has
garnisheed the bank deposit of $SOO or so
which the "arbitrage" people neglected to
withdraw when they left town. He seems
to be likely to be the only man who will
save anything from the wreck.

THE ST. PAUL GLOBE, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 14, 1899,
ALLEN MADE SENATOR
POPILIST IS CHOSEN TO FILL THE
VACAXCY CAUSED BY DEATH
OP MR. HAYWARD
MR. BRYAN APPROVES IT
Snyn Mr. Allen Wan the Most Logical
Man for the Plnee—Hints at Fu
ture Chances for Democratic As
pirants—Mr. Hitchcock Thanks
the Friends Who Stood by Him
Throughout His Candidacy.
OMAHA, Dec. 13.-Gov. Poynter has
appointed ex-Senator Allen to fill the
senatorial vacancy caused by the death
of Hayward.
Last night Gov. Poyntor wired ex-Sen
ator Allen to come to Lincoln for a con
ference. Allen came down from his home
at Madison, and went immediately to
ths capltol 1, and he and the governor were
clcseted in the latter's private room for
some time. "When the conference was
over Gov. Poynter announced that he
had decided to appoint the ex-senator to
the place, and thai his commission would
be made out as speedily as possible. The
newly appointed senator announced his
intention of proceeding to Washington at
once and assume the duties of his office.
It is announced that the appointment
of Alien was made certain by the receipt
of a telegram from W. J. Bryan by the
governor, in which Br>an urged that good
i faith and party expediency demanded
Allen's appointment. In announcing the
appointment of Allen the World-Herald
publishes the following card from its
proprietor:
"To the many earnest friends who so
I generously and enthusiastically support
| ed me in my recent candidacy for the
j senatorial appointment at the hands of
the governor, I herewith tender my
thanks. I cannot honestly deny that I
have been deeply disappointed, and I feel
j most keenly the sting of ingratitude, but
i above all I have been deeply moved By
; the unexpected and almost unanimous
j support or the people or Dou, is county
! and the generous indorsemen. of repre
j Eentative men in all parts of Nebraska.
—"Gilbert H. Hitchcock."
INDORSED BY BRYAN.
AUSTIN, Tex., Dec. 13.-When asked
by an Associated Pret-s correspondent as
to what he thought of Mr. Allen's ap
pointment as senator from Nebraska,
Mr. Bryan replied:
"1 think the appointment of Mr. Allen
ought to give universal satisfaction. He
made a good record in the senate, and
last year had the unanimous support of
the fusion members of the legislature.
I think that in making this appointment
the governor acted wisely. There are
several Democrats in the state who would
have filled the office acceptably, but the
fact that Allen was last year the choice
of all three parties makes him the logical
man for the place. 1 have no doubt that
a Democrat will be chosen next year to
succeed Senator Thurston, and that wlli 1
give our state a Populist and a Democrat
in the senate."'
LINCOLN, Neb., Dec, 13.—Gov. Poyn
ter tonight refused to confirm the report
that William J. Bryan had dictated the
appointment of Allen to the vacant sen
atorship. The governor made his state
ment in a guarded manner, but he said
that he had heard from Mr. Bryan since
the appointment and that Mr. Byran
had expressed great satisfaction with
the selection of Allen. Gov. Poynter
tonight gave out a statement for publica
tion, in which he says the appointment
j was made in response to the wishes of a
! majority of the people of the state,
which also are in accord with his own
predilection in the matter. For Mr.
Hitchcock, the governor eaid, he had the
warmest of feeling.
