Jones was bleeding on the back, ground in

Sullivan was ratified, but looked for chance

square in the face, more blood, and down he
went.
Mr.. Gill picked his man up and dragged
him to his corner. Some talking followed:
and Jones shook his head every time.
"Come out, you coon," was called quite
vigorously. Jones, in reply, said he had
enough.
''You give up?" asked "Little Scotty.''
Jones said "yes," and everybody else said
keno. The fight thus lasting forty-fve
minutes.
After little desultory talk, during which
the coon was cussed, every body went out
into the saloon and said ''how.'' Soon Sui

OF Gen. L. L. Crittenden and Others for
the Defense.
New York, April 1.-THE defense was
begun to-day in the Hazen- Stanley case at

Crittenden was the first witness. He said
his division at the battle of Shilo formed on
the right of Gen. Nelson and there was
fighting when he got there. The battle
ended at about o'clock and the confederates
retired. Gen. Nelson asked him If he had
nothing to do with Hazen, and witness re-
piled he had nothing to do with Hazen; that
the latter belonged to Nelson's division.
Witness was asked if Hazen's misconduct was
frequently discussed in Buell's army
after the battle of Shiloh, and replied he
could not say misconduct, but he heard
Hazen was back at the landing when the
battle was going on. An officer told witness
Hazen bad been seen there. Witness heard
lnslnuatlons from many officers about this
not being Hazen's proper place. Witness
was present at Belknap's trial, when Hazen
was witness, and this examination was dis.
cussed by officers. The question being
asked witness as to the impression produce q
on the officers minds by the testimony given
the court went into executive session, the
judge advocate objecting to the question.
Inc court decided to admit the question.
ana witness answered that he did not re-
member what impression was produced
The other witness being present, specification
six was taken up.

A BAD FALL.

A Man Named Edwards, Supposed to be
from st. Paul, Falls Into a Minneapolis
Excavation and is Dangerously Injured.
Especial Telegram to the Globe.
MINNEAPOLIS, April 14.-At II 80 last night,
Officer slotten, while patrolling his beat, heard
groans as if from some one in distress. He
listened and found that the groans came from
the excavation King made for the erection of
building by Koon & Merrill, on First avenue
south between Washington avenue and Second
street. The officer climbed down and there
found the body of man lying
in pool of blood. Help was summoned and
the man conveyed to the police station, where
physician was summoned who pronounced
the man in q very critical condition, his skull
being cracked and teraible cash on the top of
his head three inches long. His wounds were
dressed and he was put to bed in one of the
cells, but the doctor has little hopes of his re-
covery.
From letters found in his pocket it is sup
posed that his name is James Edwards, and
that he boarded at Gross's hotel, on Fort
street, st. Paul. He was dressed in black
pants and vest, light coat, and wore boots
with his pants tucked in the top. The place
where he fell is fifteen feet deep, is not
fenced in, and no lamp is put up at night to
warn passers-by of their danger, and un-
doubleday the only reason that Edwards was
not instantly killed was owing to his in
toxicated condition.

Stradella at the Athennum.

A fair audience greeted the third produc-

at the Atheneum last night. It was again
brought out under the auspices of the Man
nerchor, and the several characters were pre-
sented by the same, who made such favor
able impression at the two former perform
ances. Last night the adage, ''practice
makes perfect" had complete verifcation.
The opera was presented with a wonderful
nicely IS to dramatic and musical detail. Prof.
Zimmerman and Capt. Dreher were'in excellent
voice, and interpreted their parts with great
lyrical and dramatic effect. Miss Faber
proved herself a queen Of song, and was
given the repeated tribute of rapturous en-
cores. The chorus responded in the refrains
with spirit and harmony. The whole per-
Torrance was grand success, approaching
in perfection the appearance and interpreta.
ton Of a professional performance.

the Lumber Question.
MERGE yesterday morning President Sibley
offered the following resolutions, which we're
unanimously adopted:
Resolved, That this chamber has learned with
deep regret of the recent demise of Morris
Lamprey, ESQ.,, a prominent member of the
legal profession of Ramsey county and a useful
and public spirited citizen.
ReSotUed, That this chamber tenders its re-
spectful sympathy to the widow and other

STREET CAR STABLES.
j. II. Davidson called attention to the
work of erecting street car stables on the
corner of Fifth and st. Peter streets. He
stated that Mr.. Somers, owner of the Wind
sor house, on the opposite side of the street,
considered that it would ruin lis property.
Capt. w. F. Davidson contemplated erecting
the finest block in the State "a five story
building) on the corner of Wabashaw and
Fifth streets, running back to the proposed
stables, and it would certainly be very objec-
tionable to have such building at that
place. He did not know what could be
done more than call public attention to the
matter.
Messrs. Davidson, F. Driscoll and G. N.
Bell were appointed committee to wait on
Mr.. Walsh, manager of the Street Car COM
pany, and see what could be done in the
matter.
THE LUMBER BUSINESS.
Capt. Barney reported from the committee
on manufactures in favor of asking the coun-
Gil to appoint lumber inspector. Report
adopted.
Mr.. McClung moved the appointment of o
committe of five to consider the question of
making st. Paul lumber market, securing
room for the business, inviting lumbermen
to locate here, etc.
The motion prevailed, and Messrs. T. J.
Barney, D. McCaine, G. D. Gilfillan, j. W..
Bishop and T. S. White were appointed.
