MI \ NKAPOLLS TO PLAY ELGIN.
UeMiill. It In Claimed, to Decide High
Sriiool Championship.
CHICAGO, Nov. 20.—The high school
football teams of the West hope to ar
rive at a more definite settlement of the
championship this season than the col
lege teams are able to settle in their
class.
Next Saturday a game will be played
at Minneapolis which, it is claimed, will
decide the championship for the second
ary schools in the Northwest. The con
esting teams will be those of the Central
high school, of Minneapolis, and the El
gin high school, of Elgin, ill. The Min
neapolis team claims the championship
of Minnesota and Wisconsin, while the
Elgin players say that their record en
titles Ihem to lirst place among the high
schools oi Illinois.
This latter claim is tacitly agreed to
by most of the teams in the Cook Coun
ty league, and when arranging for tha ,
game- the members of the league In
formed them that the championship of
Illinois was not to be cla:med by the
' winner of the league. Oak Park has tho
only learn which has scored on the El
gin team this season. Oak Park scored
on the first kick-off of the first game of
the year. The score at the end of the
game, liowtver, was 5S to 5 in favor of
Elgin. Last Saturday Chicago Manual
Training school was defeated by a score
of 22 to 0. Other Chicago hlfh school
teams have declined repeated invitations
to meet the Elgin high school team, be
ing satisfied with the attempts which
these two teams have made.
The Minneapolis team has an equally
good icro:-.i having defeated Madison
high Bohool team by a score of 50 to 0,
and held the University -of Minnesota
down to a score of oto 0. The Elgin team
average? 145 pounds to a man, while the
MJiimeapolis team averages 165 pounds.
The Illinois boys will leave In a" private
car for Minnesota Thursday night. The
.. trip will be moie than 800 miles, one of
the longest ever taken by a high school
te-im.
The party v.-jii consist of fiftee playe.rs,
two coaches, the team physician, and
triends of the boys. The following are
the players that will be taken: Roy
• Farmiloe, left end; Charles O'Connel',
left tackle; Arthur Hall, left guard;
Paul Kin-pin*, center; "William Gibson,
right puard; Bernard Hynes, - right
tackle; Claude Greene, right end; Frank

RYAN STILL IN THE GAME.
Captain Says That He Has No Idea
of Quitting Baseball.
CHICAGO, Nov. James E. Ryan,
captain of the Chicago Ball club, who has
been rivaling the justly celebrated sphinx
in the matter of profound silence ever
since the close of the playing season,
spoke freely yesterday, and denied the""
oft-circulated story that he is to retire,
leave the club and give up the game.
"I don't understand," said Ryan, "just
where this retirement talk originated. I
see in various reports that I am off the
books/crossed out, and. slated for th e
shelf; that I am worn out, on the ragged
edge of play, and sure to be passed up
by next April. Well, I have just this to
so: I never said a word about quitting,
and I will not quit baseball till there is
no longer any financial inducements for
me to play the game. When the time
comes that nobody wants me I will think
of going, and not till then."

nans Wagner, champion batsman of
the National league, and Ihe stalwart all
round man of the Pittsburg club, met
with an accident Saturday, which came
close to ending 1 his usefulness as a ball
player. He wps hunting in the vicinity
of Carnegie. While nassine through a
thicket he came In contact with a branch
and a thorn was thrust into hl*= rieht
eye. His cry of pain attracted the at
tention of his companions, who rushed to
his side. The thorn, which was imbedded
deep in ihe flesh directlv beneath the eye,
was withdrawn, and Waerner was led to
his home. lie now has his damaged op

The Red V\ ing basket ball team, which
last winter won fame bv defeating every
team with which it plaved. thus laying
claim to the championship of the North

that name.
That Cftarlie Comiskey. manager of the
Chicago While Stockiners, has xreat re
gard for Cincinnati talent, and is not
allowing the grass to grow under him, !s
evidenced from the manner in which he
is endeavoring to corner the local omck
ball toesers, says the Cincinnati En
ouirer. Comiskey yesterday accepted the
terms of Charlie Werner, who pi*cb.-»d
Phenomenal ball for Max Fleischmann's
Mountain Athletic club during 'he past
season. Werner has all the earmarks of
a orackeriack. Under the tuition of a
veteran like Comiskev h^ should develop
into one of the best s'.ab artists now out
side of the National League. The shrew!
Chicago manager also has his lines set
for big G-orge Nye. who covered first
for the Mountain Athletic club. There
is no denying the fact that Nye is a ball
player from the ground un, ripe enough
for any of the American League teams
Aside from beinisr a rattling good batter
Nye is a splendid fielder and perfect!--.- at
home at either first or behind the Ivit
One of the features of Nve's work -.vhiTe
a member of the M. A. C. was his fiuick
heady work. Neither Comiskey nor any
ether manager will make a mistake in
securing the services of the big fellow.

POWER OF 111 II
IT IS sustained; BY the supreme
COURT IX ZIMMERMAN
CASE
PROTECTION OF THE PEOPLE
That, Says tlie Court, Wns the Aim
'■■[ of the Law, and Must
Be Seriously Con
sidered.
The police commission can summarily
discharge members of the force, if, in its
judgment, it is for the good of the serv
ice.
The supreme court yesterday affirmed
the decision of the Ramsey county dis
trict court in the case of G. A. Zimmer
man against the City of St. Paul and
the members of the police commission.
Mr. Zimmerman and the fifty-nine otaor
members of the force who were dis
charged with him, without any cause as
signed, will now have no redress, an! the
commission can go ahead unhampered.
Following is the decision as hand3d down
by Judge Lewis:
Prior to May 1, 1900, the Municipal
Code of St. Paul provided that the mayor
of the city to appoint policemen with to«
advice and consent of the assembly, and
that policemen might be removed ut any
time by the mayor, upon trie concurrence
of a majority vote of the common coun
cil, and that the council could remove
by a two-thirds vote, without the prefer
ment of charges. Also that the mayor
might remove any member at any time
within six months from the date, of such
member's appointment.
May 1, 190U, the people of St. Paul voted
upon and adopted a new charter, whien
went into effect on that day. Chapter 7
of the new charter contained the provi
sions in reference to the police depart
ment. Such department consisted of a
board of police, a chief of police and a
police force. It is provided that the po
lice board shall be appointed by th-.
mayor, shall serve without compensation,
shall have been citizens of St. Paul tor
at least one year, and hold no other of
fice under the city government during
their terms of otlice. After the first
board the term is rive years, one to be
appointed annually.
into the hands of the board thus se
lected and constituted is given tlae com
plete administration, management and I
control or the police department.
The first board was duly selected and
organized, and on three separate occa
sions, June 11, Aug. 8 and Aug. 20, ISTO,
the board unanimously passed resolu
tions summarily dismissing sixty mem
bers of the police force who were still
holding over, having been appointed over
the old code, and tne vacancies thus oc
casioned were immediately rilled by the
appointment of new men. The appellant
was one of the officers thus removed,
and, desiring to test the validity of the
board's action, petitioned the district
court for a writ of certiorari to review
the proceedings. The petition recited the
facts above stated. A writ was Issued
and respondents answered, admitting the
removal, alleging that it was for the
good of the service of the poJce depart
ment, and not by way of punishment,
and pleaded justification under the pro
visions of the new charter. The court
below quashed the writ, and the petition
er appealed.
Section 2, of subdivision 1 reads as fol
lows: ".Except as in this chapter other
wise provided, all members of said police
department shall hold office during the
pleasure of said board."
Section 1, o f subdivision 3 provides that
The board of police shall have power, "To
appoint, promote, suspend, disrate, rep
rimand and dismiss or otherwise punish
any member of said police department in
the manner hereinafter provided, and to
require a bond from any members of
said department and prescribe the con
dition thereof."
Subdivision 6 reads as follows:
PROMOTIONS, SUSPENSIONS, DIS
MISSALS AND DISRATEMENTS.
Section 1. Any member of said police
lorce who shall be guilty of misconduct
or breach of duty snail be liable to be
punished by said board by reprimand c>r
by temporary suspension without pay,
not to exceed one month, or by tine
not to exceed one month's salary ur hy
reduction in rank, or by dismissal from
service.
Section 2. Before said board shall pun
ish member of said police force by dis
missal, it shall notify any such member
and he shall be entitled to a public hear
ing Under such rules and regulations as
the board may prescribe, at which he
may appear personally and by council
and may require said board to hear and
enforce the attendance of witnesses in
hus own behalf.
Section 6. subdivision 7 provides that
all officers employed and members of the
police force and department of said city
a* th, e "me when the charter became
effective, should continue to hold their
ornces until removed by said board
It is not uncommon for judges to as
sume knowledge of extrinsic facts when
interpreting statutes of peculiar public
importance. To a certain extent such
practice is warranted when necessary to
consider the history of and the cir
cumstances connectad wiCh the birth
of a statute in order to discover the in
tent with which it was adopted. But the
court should resort to such method of
interpretation, only when the enactment
is so ambiguous that the intent of its
makers must be sought beyond its own
limits.
Applying to this case the usual rule of
construction, our first purpose should be
to determine the intention of the fram-
OT! °f *he a'ct. by consideration of 'h
act itself. If the inconsistencies of which
our attention has been called should turn '
out to be only apparent, and if those i
various sections and clauses may fce
harmonized and treated as consistant
factors of and within the scope and
spirit of the act, the interpretation Is !
at an end.
The question before us Is whether the !
board of possess the power to sum- i
manly dismiss members of the police '
force.
The argument presented for our con
sideration on behalf of appellant is that
the provisions above refeirred to are
inconsistent and cannot stand together
That subdivision 6 comprises the only
method of causing a dismissal and hen.-e
the declaration in subdivision 1 that th^
member shall hold office during the
pleasure of the board has no effect. In
other words, that the exception by pro
vision otherwise, is covered by subdivi
sion 6. which excludes the general pow. r
to dismiss contained in the prior section
But, it is claimed, if it is not apparent
from the reading-, that the board were by
subdivision 6 deprived of the general au
thority expressed in the prior section,
then no contrary Intention is expressed,
that act in that respect is ambiguous,
and appellant's interpretation is the one
most In harmony with the scope and
spirit of the act.
As to the object sought to b? obtained
by the adoption of the new charter, w«
may consider the provisions of the old

code and compare them -with the new.
In the former there is an apparent pur
pose to limit the appointing power in
the right to make indiscriminate remov
als without cause, and certain checks
are provided by the time of service and
concurrence on the part of the common
council. However, the act was so fram
ed that it gave the appointive power to
the mayor of the city, the responsible
head of the police force, and it may be
conceded that it was the purpose of the
framers of the new law to remedy de
fects which permitted such abuses as
may have grown up under the former
system.
The principal change made is the estab
lishment of the police board and delgat
ing to it the appointing, managing and
dismissing, power. The selection of the
board of police is given to the mayor,
but the members are required to serve
without pay, hold no other office and the
term is five years. The evident intent <>f
those who drafted this act was to pro
vide a system which would result in the
selection of a commission composed of
public-spirited, fair-minded men. who
would rise above personal and political
considerations, and administer the police
department upon the basis of efficiency
alone. And, although the summary dis
missal of sixty men without assigning
definite cause, may raise a presumption
that the commission has not entered
into the spirit of tba reform act, yet in
construing the act we cannot consider
such result. It is not a matter in refer
ence to which the courts should assume
any knowledge, and from a consideration
of the law itself it is to be presumed that
such removals as the board may have
made were made for the general good of
the service.
We are unable to discover any such in
herent difficulty or inconsistencies in th»
schema adopted as to makp it necessary
to gp outside of its provisions in order
to discover its purpose, scope and spirit.
Coming down to a consideration of the
apparently inconsistent clauses, we find
no difficulty. By giving such section its
proper weight, there is consistency and
harmony throughout.
If the exception mentioned in section 2,
subdivision 1, refers to sub.livit.ion 6,
those provisions are not necessarily ex
elusive of other powers of the board to
dismiss for other reasons.
Subdivision 6 deals with the miscon
duct of members and provides a method
of punishment upon notice and hear.ng.
An efficient member m'ght he charged
with some offense, so an inefficient man

could be dismissed lor ths good of th«
service, although he be not charged With
misconduct or breach of duty. If in iact
a member is guilty of misconduct 01
breach of duty he cannot ba di-misled
for that reason without a hearin;.:. The
provision is for the protection of the
men, to . enable them to met Bttcl
charges. It is not Intended as a llmita
tu>n upon the powers or tne board to re
move men for other reasons of ineffi
ciency, such as age,"*health or tempera
ment. Again, bearing in mind that sec
tion 2 of subdivision 1, is under the head
of 'Organization," and Is in a genera)
way dealing with the tenure of ofn;e of
the members of the police department,th«
exception may apply to that cla>.-, i of
ficers whose term is fixed by the act, ai
the chief of police, whose term is fixed
at two years. In either case there is a
reasonable application of the clause con
taining the exception.
Neither do we tlnd any difficulty in the
language employed in section 1 of subdi
vision 3. The words "as hereinafter pro
vided" do not necespaiily limit the au
thority to dismiss that which is implied
in the preceding provision that members
shall hold office during the pleasure of
the board. Subdivision 3 has reference to
dismissals as set forth in the subse
quent subdivision 6, for misconduct <»r
breach of duty.
The provision that the member serving
under the old charter shall continue to
hold their several offices until removed
by the boaid is no limitation upon the
right of removal. Such members were in
ivo better position than new appointees.
Nor is this section positive authority to
dismiss members holding over, simply
because they are such, regardless of
other considerations. It is to be pre
sumed that they will be treated upon the
same basis as new appointees,' and not
be relieved except for cause or to make
way for better men. Such holding ta
certainly in accordance with the maniest
intention of the act, viz.: To retain the
services of able and experience men to
weed out the inefficient, and gradually
strengthen the force by the addition at
the best material attainable. For these
reasons the action of the tiial court in
quashing the writ must be sustained.
Judgment affirmed.
