Hank KSef Convicted Complaint against
the Hastings &c Dakota RaiIaUay Co.
To the Editor Of the Globe.
The October term of the district court fol-
this county ended yesterday. Considerable
business was transacted.
The notorious Hank Kief was convicted of
stealing the Blomquist ponies and buggy and
harness, and sentenced by Judge Macdonald
to five years at saltwater. This is very IN
healthy district for horse thieves.
s,There is a great deal of complaint made
here against the management aof the
Hastings & Dakota railway company for
Withdrawing the passenger train which has
heretofore went east from Glencoe in the
morning, and returning west in the afternoon.
The present arrangement Of only one train Il
day (going west in The forenoon and return
ing In the afternoon), deprives all west OF
here in the county of coming to the county
seat and returning the same day, or going to
Shakopee or any point east of the Minneapolis
cnt off at Benton except in the afternoon.
should think the railroad COM
pany would see that it was to their interest to
make some arrangement by which their past

A Series of misrepresentation. Corrected

ST. LOUIS, Oct. 21.-Several days ago,
Capt. James B. Eads addressed a communica.
ton to the merchants exchange, drawing at.
tention to the fact that several foreign news.
papers recently published statements to the
effect that the jetty system at the mouth OF
The Mississippi river is not a success, aud
asking the exchange to appoin. committee
composed of four leading members of the ex
change who have made a report. They ex-
press the opinion that the accounts in foreign
papers were based upon Misrepresentation
made by the Cincinnati Commercial and Mem.
phis Avalanche, and quote from official re
ports of government officers and other rela
BILE authorities, to show that the required
depth of water has been obtained, and is main
tanned; that the largest ocean going vessels
pass in and out without detention: that the
government has regularly paid Capt. Eads for
TWO years past the quarter diem installments
due for the maintenance Of this channel and
report the following resolutions which have
been adopted as the expression of the exchange:
Resolucd, That statement published by the
Cincinnati Commercial and Memphis Aval-
Gnche to the eff ct that the chanuel through
the LETTERS at the mouth of the Missouri river
has been deficient and that the work is fail
ure, are wholly unfounded; in fact, that the
investigation of the facts has shown channel
of 200 feet in width and twenty-six feet in
depth. Required by law to be and to have
been fully maintained, that said channel is a
permanent one and is broad and deep enough
to accommodate the largest class of mer-
chant vessels.
RESOLVED, That we emphatically condemn
the publication of the articles referred to, and
pronounce them injurious to the interests OF
the commerce of the Mississippi valley.
sIGNIrIcANr
1t is regarded as quite significant in com.
mercial circles here that R. s. Hayes, Jr.,
vice president of the Gould Southwest railroad
system; Col. A. A. Falmoze, general m anage1
Of the Missouri Pacific; A. NJ. Hoxie, general
manager of the Iron Mountain & Information

membership in the St. LOUIS Cotton exchange.

The house transacted but little business yes
day. The day was almost entirely consumed
in discussion on the resolutions offered on
Wednesday by Judge Wilson, of W!nona, re-
curing the appointment of joint committee
of five for the purpose of investigating the
terms upon which Selah Chamberlain pro
cured his bonds against the state-whether OF
not he was liable for the payment of the inter
est on the bonds. The judiciary committee
reported the resolutions recommending their
indefinite postponement, but two dissentient
votes being recorded, those of Judge Wilson
and Mr.. McCracken. The report of the ma
jority of the committee was opposed by Judge
whole question was debated at length by
Messrs. Hicks, Smith, Comstock, Norrish,
Mott aad Sanborn in favor of the payment of
the bonds, and by Messrs. Wilson and
McCracken against their payment, while Mr..
Redding was an anxious seeker after informa-
ton. The report of the majority of the commit
tee was finally adopted by vote Of fifty five to
thirty-two. This vote is considered test OF
the strength of the two factions in the House
on this question. The bond-payers will GER
tainly be recruited by five votes from mem
bers who were absent yesterday, and possibly
can count on several more. There seems to
be no doubt but the bill for the settlement OF
the bonds will pass the House by substantial
majority. AS the arguments advanced on both
sides were substantially the same as those
heretofore adduced, and fully reported, the
GLOBE has not deemed it necessary to devote
a great amount of space to the debate.
The committee on the governors message,
through Col. Hicks, the chairman, reported
the Senate bill for the settlement of the rail
road bonds, with few amendments, the only
material ones being that the rates Of interest
on the new bonds to be issued in lieu of the
old is fixed at four instead of five per cent
The bill has already been published in full in
the GLOBE.

THE SENATE.

Contrary to the expectation of its friends,
consideration of the bond bill in general or
ders was not completed yesterday, owing to
the anxiety Of some members for an early ad-
Journment to enable them to get home. Sen
ator Castle spoke briefly, but ably, in advocacy
of the measure, and in contrayention of the
main legal propositions advanced by Senator
Buck, of Blue Earth, in his argument Thursday
against the constitutionality OF the proposed
action, to which Senator Buck replied very
briefly, when the debate upon an understand
ing that the measure should be takeu up Mon
day evening, and pushed through, its op-
ponents agreeing to adopt no dtlatory tactics.
With this understanding an adjournment was
had to Monday evening.
