EThree Months In Jail. sst,
Yesterday was sentence day in the district
court. A small batch of culprits were marched
up for the sentence Of the law. And, when
sized up by count they only figured up three,
all for larceny. sa ile ao t5'ee( -i5s,s
Charles A. squires was called up first. He
had pleaded guilty to stealing . lot of boots
from Thomas Nolan's shop on Waba-
shaw street. He had supplemented
this plea by some strenuous swearing in the
behalf of Lawrence Fox, who W as alleged to
have been with him when tho theft was com-
mittcd; Squires walked up pert enough to get
the law for it, but looked gloomy as a mid
summer Storm when the court allotted a
period of eighteen months to him in the State
penitentiary. .5 & ..ss s55
Lawrence Fox had answered mot guilty" to
the allegation of being with Sqnircs5 in the
aforementioned transaction. He wac found
guilty, notwithstanding Squires' friendly
swearing and some stiff stories related in hi
own behalf. He was startled by Squlres, sen
tence, but was completely crushed by tn
courts preference in the way of time for him
He got two years at hard labor in Saltwater.

THE FIFTH YARD.

Proposed Plan of Sewerage In That Section
of the City.
The Fifth ward committee to devise plan
of sewerage for that ward met again yester-
day.
Considerable discussion followed as to the
extent of the sewerage system to be intro
duced, but finally it was determined to
recommend as follows:
The construction of main sewer, with
temporary outlets on Fifth street, from Kit
son street to trout brook; on Kittson street,
from Fifth to Seventh street; on Seventh
from Kittson to Neill street, on Neill from
Seventh to Grove: on Grove from Neill to
Saltwater street. With lateral sewers on
Seventh from Broadway to Neill; Eighth
and Broadway to Kittson; Ninth
and, Broadway to Neill; Tenth
and Broadway to Locust; Eleventh and
Broadway to Olive; Twelfth and Broadway
to Pine; on Olive to Eighth or Eleventh
streets; on Locust and Seventh to Ninth; on
Monroe from Neill to Woodward; on Lafay-
elite avenue and Grove to Waverly Place;
on Woodward street to Monroe street; on
Partridge street from Lafayette avenue to
fifty feet east of Madison; from Waverly
Place on Saltwater to Lafayette.
The question again came up as to whether
the system of sewers should be run in the
alley-ways or through the main streets.
In accordance with instructions City
Engineer Sewall submitted estimate of cost
of the two plans as follows:
Sewers through alleys. SAC, 12(
Sewers through streets Observation-Disclosures. 4O,5O(
In presenting the two plans il
was noticeable that many more catct
basins and man-holes were pro
vided for in the street-plan than in tn,
alley-plan and the construction of thes,
would make large increase over the ex
pense of the alley plan.
The general objection to running tn
sewers through the alley-ways was that tn
street crossing had to be made at an angle
and this would tear up the street to tn
greater disadvantage of traffic than were the.
run along the streets. Other objection
were urged, and it was ultimately decided t.
recommend that the sewers be run through
the main streets. The report will be sub
mitted Mt the next meeting of the council

THE STABBING AFFAIR.

Continuance of the Examination to the
31st-A Statement from the Wounded
Man.
3, The usual crowd of depraved onlookers
was supplemented at the municipal court
yesterday morning by fair percentage of
respectable-appearing people who were
drawn thither as friends or acquaintance Of
Hiram Dyer, Jr., the young man who COM
mitted the assault upon the person of
peared in yesterdays issue of the GLOBE.
The prisoner entered the court room at 8
. o'clock, the case being called after the dispo-
sition of the petty oulprits.
Immediately after the case had been
called continuance was taken until the
31st inst. to await the results of the wounded
mans injuries. A diagnosis of the cut was
made yesterday by DR.. Roy, who reports the
case as not dangerous, and last night the
wounded man was resting easy, with good
prospects of his speedy recovery.
STATEMENT FROM The WOUNDED MAN.
To the Editor of tho Globe.
ST. PAUL, May 23.-In this mornings GLOBE
you did me great injustice in regard to the
atabbing ARRAY in Rice street. In the first
place, did not use vulgar or abusive language
toward Dyer, Jr., lady, or anybody else. It is
false also about Mr.. Dyer, ST., telling me not
to talk that way. I did not give Dyer, Jr.,
any cause whatever to assault me with steak
knife two feet long. Myself and every one in
the party thought he was joking until he made
rush out doors after me, swearing he would
cut me to pieces. aud while trying to defend
myself fell down. Then the coward plunged
the knife in and did his best to kill him. And
again, Mr.. Editor, I think you was misinform-
cd about my being shiftless, dissolute char
acter. The party that told you the story was
friend of Dyer, and did all he could to injure
me and help him out. Now, Mr.. Editor, do
not ask you to believe me; but if you will
ask any of the following gentlemen who saw
and witnessed the whole affair you win find
that told the truth: John Donohue, of the
firm of Murnane & Oonohue; John Preckner,
II Rice st., John Schultz, Dyer meat market.
Mr.. Editor, as you was misinformed last night
hone that you will do me Justice in youl
mornings paper. Yours ETC.,
