MATTER WILL BE DISCUSSED
Meeting of Fuel Oil Company
Brings to City Texan "Who Will
Ai'dress 31ns* : Meeting at -
Chamber of Commerce.
The directors of the United States Fuel
Oil company, ~whose tield.s are among the
most prolific of the great Beaumont,
Tex., strip, held a meeting in this city
yesterday and at the meeting was W. M.
Crooks, of Beaumont, an attorney, and a
director of the company. Mr. Crooks re
lates some Interesting facts regarding
this newly developed country - and in
dustry. He will remain in St. Paul for a
few days, during which time he will meet
and confer with some of the prominent
business men concerning the possibility
of transporting some of the Beaumont
product to this section of country.
. The United States Fuel Oil company is
formed mostly of St. Paul" parties. Its
president is L. J. Wilde. It is among the'
most prosperous of the Texas companies.
Owing to the interest which this company
attracts in St. Paul, Mr. Crooks has b •• n
invited by the Chamber of Commerce, to
address a mass meeting of business men
under he auspices of that body tomorrow
evening:.
According to Mr. Crooks the fuel oil
produced by his company ci>mman<ls a
price at the wells of 20 cents a barrel and
one barrel is equivalent in use to two
tons of coal. For this reason the oil
rragnates have experienced no difficulty
whatever in finding a market for their
product, but upon the other hand they
have been crowded with orders. Both
the Santa Fe and the Southern Pacific
railways have adopted the use of this
oil hs fuel for their engines, not on their
entire systems, but to a c-onsiderabie ex
tent. And they are planning to supplant
coal altogether with the oil.
OIL ON RAILROADS.
The Santa Pc people are accredited
with having found, after making ade
quate tests,- that by the use of oil aa
fuel they make a saving of 85 per cent.
As an illustration of the comparative
cost of feeding an engine with coal and
oil, Mr. Crooks cited this instance.
From Beaumont to Somerville is a dis
tance of 350 miles.- The Santa Fe has
been accustomed, to using coal on their
engines in operation over this route, and
for the trip it had cost just S4S.SO for
coal. Since the adoption of oil »a tuel
this road has'made a retrenchment of
$41.t;i> in the matter of futl every time the
trip is made. For, says Mr. Crooks, it
takes just $7.50 worth of this fuel oil to
keep up steam for this distance. -
LTNE OF TRANSPORTATION.
Mr. Crooks is of, the opinion that Min
nesotans will rind it profitable to investi
gate the matter of transporting oil from
the Texas fields north. A continuous
line of steamboat transportation could be
formed by means of the Mississippi river,
the Gulf of Mexico, Sabinc pass andl
Xcche river. Oil could be loaded on the
vessels at Beaumont and conveyed to St.
Paul without change. This transporta
tion, he says, could be done for 15 or 20
cents a barrel, which would stfl make the
fuel very cheap after it had arrived here.
In order to effectually carry on this
transportation it would of course be nec
essary to form a regular transportation
company, having its own steamboats.
Mr. Crooks has not yet aproached the
business men of St. Paul interested In
this affair on the matter of forming the
water transportation system referred to,
and says that is not his mission up here
at this time. He came ■ primarily to at
tend the meeting of directors, but it is
planned to have the Texan enter into
some discussion of this proposition at the
meeting tomorrow night. The idea has
it is stated, ■ commended-itEelf to local
capitalists as a feasible one, and no one
need be surprised to learn that steps
have tawn taken to bring about such an
enterprise. v -•■ •'
Regarding the magnitude of the Beau
mont oil fields, Mr. Crooks states that
th< \v extend in some directions about 100
miles from the town. He looks for even
a more phenomenal growth and develop
ment of the industry than has yet been
experienced. Beaumont^ he says, is now
one of the busiest centers in the Lone
Star state, and a vast amount of North
ern capital and enterprise is being in
corporated in the progress of the country.
There are many St. Paul parties who
have become familiar figures in the oil
traffic at this celebrated place, and, ac
cording to Mr. Crooks, they are all doing
well.

Lewis Barnhart was arraigned before
Judge" Hine, in the police court yester
day, on the charge of assaulting Con
stable Walter B. Monti, of New Brighton,
Sunday evening, while the constable was
attempting to arrest him. Barnhart ap
peared in court with a badly disligured
countenance as the result of the encoun
ter.
According to the constable, he essayed
to arrest Barnhart while engaged in a
family disturbance at his horn«. Barnhart
resisted the officer and attacked him with
a knife. Monti says that Barnhart made
one lunge at his heart and his star was
the only thing that saved him from a
dangerous wound.
On the other hand, Barnhart claims
that Constable Monti attacked him with
out provocation, knocked him down, beat
him and then fired at him several times
with a revolver.
The case will be aired in tho police
court this afternoon.

ing of the board of aldermen last even
ing. ;
■'Yes, there does seem to be a sand

wasn't so late in the season I'd vote to
reject that aW;r<V'
The matter before the aldermen was
the approval of the award to Fielding &
Sheplty for the curbing and boulevaraing
of Ashland avenue from Dale to Victoria
street, and the discussion which arose
was on a statement made by Aid. Mur
phy that gran'te cuibing could be had
for the same j,ri<:e that the city would
pay Fielding & Shepley for sandstone.
"It isn't in my ward, said Aid. Murphy,
''but I must say if granite can be ob
tain* -i as < ■ 11•:1 1> as sandstone, it by all
means behooves this body to give the
property owners the best for their
artoney."
A number of the other members win of
tht- sanne opinion, but Aid. S^hiffmann
demurred to a delay and his wlshejs were
rt>sp<-cttd and the award approved.
It was here that Aid. SchiffmHnn re
marked that it looked as if the city v.-aa
'•up against" another trust, but City
Engineer Claussfn denied tiv.' fact t uat
granite was as cheap a^s sandstone, say
ing that there was as much as fourteen
cents differenc- between tVie two. "In
ie?s otherwise ordered, however," sa d
the engineer, "Kettle river sandstone Is
named in all curbing specifications by
the board."
While saying that he would not inter
fere in the matter, Mr. Murphy refused
to give his vote for the approval of tne
award, it being regstered in the tnga
tive. He was alone in this respect.

At the request of the board of public
works, the board- of aldermen last even
ing killed the .final order for the paving
of South Wabasha. street with brick, and
introduced a new-, one, the paving ma
terial specified being asphalt. The re
quest really came from the property own
ers, and the petition which they present
ed to the board was in turn transmitted
to Xae council.
From the board was received a final
order for the paving of Selby avenue
With asphalt, to which the board gave its
approval, also a final order for the mac
adamizing of Irvine avenue, from Walnut
to Western. To this one Improvement
much opposition was shown at :». late
committee meeting, but at the session
last evening none of the parties concern
ed made their appearance.
For the bene.t of Hastings avenue
property owners, A.ld. Knauft secured ap
proval to a resolution instructing the
street car company to pave between its
tracks on that thoroughrare, from Maria
avenue to Earl street. Granite is to be
used.
Hereafter the Humane society will re.
eeive $70 a month from the city. Pro

A new preliminary order for the widen

G. O. Edmonstone, of the city bridge
department, has completed plans for a
new bridge that the city proposes to use
in supplanting the present structure over
the tracks of the Omaha railroad, where
they cross the White Bear road.
The bridsv ) rr; ''r. which will be of
Iron, will be fRS feet long, and this will
be supplemented by an embankment and
trestle approaches, making 1 the structure
entire 820 feet, in length. A roadway
twenty feet in<width has been provided,
with walks on each side five feet wide.
The bridge is whtat is known as a com

Julius E. Moersch, inspector for the
state labor bureau, has just completed a
report of the latest inspection of Minne
sota miix-3, some mention of which was
made in the Globe at the time Mr.
Moersch and the other Inspectors return
ed from their trip. The report covers the
subject under consideration very fully,
comprising statistical Information re
garding- all of the mines individually, and
tht- mining- industry of the state general
ly, with notes as to the conditions exist
ing in the various mining localities and
suggestions as to improvements in
method thax Mr. Moersch believes may
be made with beneficial results, and laws
that are required for the protection of
the mine employes.
In the introductory portion of the re
port, Mr. Moersch .jays in a general way:
.;- The year 1900 was marked by its activ
ity in iron ore production. The year's
shipments from all LaJce Superior mines
amounted to 19,039,353 tons, and the mines
of the Mis-sabe and Vermillion ranges
alone-supplied a-'--little-, less' than 50 per
cent of that amount. The ore docks of
the Duluth & Iron Range railway at Two
Harbors, of the Duluth. Mls.sabe &
- Northern at 'West Dirluth, and of the
Eastern. Railway of Minnesota at Allouez
bay received and loaded 9,463,355 tons of
Minnesota ore during last year's shipping
| season, 7,809,535 tons of wh!«'i came from
the Missa'be range, while the Vermillion
range supplied.lGss,S2o tons, Lart-year's
production showed an increase of ,-.1,067,
--469 tons over that of the preceding year.
Then taking up the details of the in
spection, the report says:
The . annual inspection.,, of the mines
I commenced in the month ': of June and
I extended into the early part of Jistv. 1901.
Seven new mines were-found" to have
started since last year's.inspection^ Some
of them are expected to be In shape for
ore shipments- this year, and others
are as ; yet engaged in opening .work .and
exploration.'. Of the older- mines on the
Afissaibe range, the Commodore, 1: Ohio and
Oliver, at Virginia; the "Bay and Sellers,
Hlbbing, and the Williams, at Biwabik,
riad indefinitely abandoned their opera
tions.
Thirty-six mines In all were Inspected.
ami they had at. the time of their re
spective, inspections 7.629 men. in their
employ.. Last: year's report gives tie to
tal number of mine employes as having
been 9.sfiS. """ .
In spate of the increase in the total
number of mine . employes as shown by
the above comparison of figures, Mr.
Moersch says that some of the important
mines ; have suffered a decrease in their
volume of business, and some have re
duced the number of their employes.
Some of the mines are still producing
quite heavily, however, and one of them
made a record of 14,000 tons in twenty
four hours. „ - .
EMPLOYES LARGELY FINNS.
Discussing the subject of mine em
ployes and their characteristics, the re
port says that of the 7,000 to 8,000 mea
employed on the Missabe and Vermillion
ranges about 40 per cent are Finns, an
equal percentage Austro.llungarians and
the remainder of various different nation
alities. Of the foreigners employed in the
mines, the Finns, it is stated, show the
strongest desire to become Ame-riea.ii citi
zens, and adopt American ways and cus
toms. They are described as thrifty and
industrious. Cornish men, the report
says, are the mainstay of the mine own
ers, as in all mining localities, and are
employed as foremen, mine bosaes and
in other positions of responsibility. The
Austrians and Italians, it is said.
principally ambitious to earn ana Bave
sufficient money to return to their own
countries, and therefore are not desirous
to become Americanized. Consequently
they huddle together in groups, and the
sanitary conditions under whicli they
live arc not always of the best.
The report notes that but a small pro-
Dortion of the minors is married an.l
attributes that to the fact that conditions
in the range country are not conducive
t3 permanent settlements. The lack of
attractiveness in the surroundings causes
a n stlesanesß among the mm and a large
proportion of them is prone t"
about. The companies, it is stated, have
found it necessary to make string, nt
rUes as to pay days, owing to the habit
of some of the men to assign their
wages in small amounts to various claim
ants. Strictness as to the observance
<>!.' holidays has also been found necessary
by reason of the fact that the Austrian
miners took occasion to observe all of
the holidays in their calendar and, as they
did not notify their employer*, the crews
•wtie frequently found to .be unexpected
ly short.
In some localities the companies are
trying to make the surroundings at
tractive and at Long Lake, near Ely, a
park lor the mine employes has been es
tabllsiud. There are bath houses and
other conveniences there -which are great
ly appreciated by the miners.
During the year 1900. in 33 mines em
ploying 7,929 men, there were 39 fatalities,
41 seriout accidents, and 363 accidents of
a minor character. In this connection it
is explained that in that time there were
two explosions to which may be attribut
ed IS of the deaths and three of the
cases of serious injury.
Mr. Moersch, in his report lays par
ticular stress upon the great need of this
state 'or laws regulating the operation
of mines He caMs attention to the fact
that at present Minnesota has practically
no laws of that character and therefore
ths mine owners are left to do as they
please and the only recourse of the labor
d> partment is to make suggestions. In
some cases these suggestions are willing
ly carried out and in others they are not.
It is stated for example, that in some
places the cages run in the sani" shafts
as the ladders up and down which the
; men trawel, and in some cases where
j cages are used to carry the men bat-k and
i forth they are without safety devices.

■In Justice Baker's court yesterday, J.
G. Donnelly, an undertaker, was given a
judgment against the city for $T." U t'a>}
ainpujit being- an indebtedness which he
claimed the city incurred by reason of the
burial of a six-ytar-o!d child who had
di.-d at the'pest house of_smallpox.
Tht interment was made last May, and
the order for the .same. Mr. Donnelly
said, came from the health department,
though denial of this fact was made by
the health officials. They issued him a
burial permit, however, and on this
Just: Baker gave his decision, holding
that the permit was equivalent to. an
order.
Mr. Donnelly, by a contract with the
city and county, buries all pauper dead
at $2.50 per, but in this case he refused
an order from the'boaTd of control, say
ing his authority came from.the health
dtpartment."

city in the [ case, Kays the decision is
without precedent and announces that lm
will take an appeal. When Mr. Don
