BISSON'S LIBERTY.

Still Trembling in the Balauce-Argument
In the Habeas Corpus Proceedings Yes
te1day-Decisiop Reserved to Wednes-
day.
The argument in the habeas corpus proceedings
in the of Nelson Bsson, extradlted by the Gov
srnor of Michigan ss fugitive OF justice from
Ishpening county, that state was commenced before
Judge wilkin, of this district court, sitting In
chambers al o clock yesterday afternoon. ". W.
Erwin appeared for the prisoner, Attorney General
Hahn and Walter H. Sanborn in support Of the
legality Of the e1tradition proceedings.
Mr.. Erwin in support OF the application for writ
of habeas corpus argued that the complaint was de-
cent In several particulars: that 1t charged two of
fenses inconsistent with each other; that the fact
that the officer before whom the complaint was
made was a magistrate, was sufficiently authenti-
Gated and that 1t appeared from the face Of the
plaint that complainant could not have been de-
oeIved by the alleged false representatives. Also
that the affidavit charging that defendant was fu-
gitive from justice insufficient In that 1t did not
30 charge but simply accused him
of leaving the State of Michigan recently. Mr. Err
win also claimed the right to chow q conspiracy to
get the men back to Michigan, and that fraud had
been perpetrated upon the Governor Of Michigan In
securing the requisiuon papers.
The attorney general and Mr.. Sanborn argued
that the complaint upon which the rarers were is
authenticatiou was all that was required
to show that the party before whom the complaints
was made, was magistrate. They
also claim that the so-called
fugitive affidavit wss sufficient, and that even II II
was not the governors not having transmitted the
evidence on which he based his conclusion that de-
fendant was fugitive from Justice, was conclusive
that he had adjudicated the matter and was satisfied
the facts justified The issuance of the papers And
finally the only question for ths court to deter
mine was whether defendant was properly restrained
Of liberty, and that the requisiion papers showed
that he was.
Upon conclusion of argument the court on
no unced it would take the matter under adysemen,
until 10 Q. m. Wednesday.

ITALY.
TRIBULATloNs OF THE POPE.

ROME, Oct. 17.--It is impossible to describe
the enthusiastic cheers after the pope gave
the benediction on the occasion of receiving
the Italian pilgrims at st. Peters yesterday.
The pope looked thin, worn and anxious. A
gang of roughs pelted the pilgrims as they
were leaving the church st. Vitale, shouting
"Down with the vatican" The pope stated
in his address to the pilgrims at st. Peters
that the deplorable state of affairs
placed before him the alternative
of enduring continual captivity, made
harder daily, or of going into exile,
He, therefore, asked Catholics to watch and
pray for the liberty and indepenpence of the
Pope. He concluded by saying he was moi
longer secure IN his palace, that he was out
ragged in his person and dignity IN thousand
ways the gravity and esrnestpess of The Pope
made profund impression. He closed the
address with his hands raised to heaven as
though miloring help.

At the Chamber Of Commerce yesterday morning,
Gen. Sibley, from the committee on relief for the
Michigan sufferers reported that the matter In
the hands of the finance committee Of the city
council and he had understood they we're unfavor-
able TO an appropriation.
Mr.. McClupg offered the following resolution:
ReSoIred, That the president Of the Chamber ap-
point special committee Of five from the Chamb or,
together with five physicians Of the city, and tllst
they be requested to meet the Mayor and City At

Ing the old board upon such basis % will carry
out the provisions Of the city charter, and prove

Mr.. MoCIung spoke of the ineficiency of the pres
ent board Of health and the sanitary importance Of
having . reorganization.
Mr.. e. F. Drake endorsed the resolution and
stated that one crying evil was defective water clos
ets, probably four-fths Of all in the city being m
properly constructed.
The resolution passed, and the president appoint
With, Drs. Murphy Hand, Brisblne, Abbott and
Wheaton as the committee.
TIE COW QUESTION.
Mr.. Drake offered resolution requesting the
mayor to enfoiee the ordinance against allowing cat
tie to run at large In the city coupling his mott on
with details Of damage done by cows in his nee h.
borhood.
Mayor Rice explained the impossibility Of one or
two policemen caring for all the strsyed animals,
and especially In view of the fact that the COW or u
nance did not cover the entire city and that In some
portions 1t was lawful for them to ut large. He
had employed two men to protect his own premises
snd they had been unable to do 30, and on Saturday
he had shot COW that had been repeatedly and ee.
pecaIy annoying. He thought that was the best
thing to do and would recommend citizens to shoot
COWS trespassing on their premises.
Mr.. F. Wilius moved to amend Mr.. Drake's reto.
luton by requesting the city council to extend the
ordinance 20 as to exclude cews from the entire city
limits.
A lengthy discussion followed during which Dr..
Day argued that 1. would be hardship TO exclude
poor people from getting the benefit Of the free
pastursge within the limits. No people ever PROS
pered who were deprived OF milk, and II would lot
do to make the ordinance so sweeping.
ExMayor Dawson thought there should be two
extra policemen in each ward to drive away the COWS.
Ex-Mayor Lee advocated raising the pound bill to
IS, one-half to 60 to the policeman taking up the
animal.
Mr. WillIus amendment was finally adopted.
The Secretary submitted financial exhibit Of tue
banks of ct. Paul, elsewhere printed, and the
chamber adjourned.

The Strike at the Manitoba Shops.

The Strike at the Manitoba Shops.
The boiler makers employed at the st. Paul
& Manitoba shops struck Wednesday of last
week for an advance of 10 per cent. on their
wages, some forty men going out, and were
followed the next day by the blacksmiths and
their helpers, numbering about seventy men.
The strikers urged as the reason for an ad
vance the high price Of family
supplies, especially fuel, and it was
proposed to them that they should be suppli-
ed with fuel at its costs to the company, which
is abont 80 per cent. less than the prices at city
woodyards. 1t was also proposed that the
blacksmiths' helpers should have an advance
Of wages of about per cent. On these
terms the blacksmiths and their helpers re-
turned to work yesterday morning. The boiler
makers, however. still stand out for an in
crease of wages, and their union has sent out
notices to boiler makers elsewhere not to come
to St. Paul until this strike is ended. The
strikers say the company cannot obtain men to
take their places and profess that they are able
to stand out all winter II necessary. The
officers of the company decline to state their
purpose, but it was understood by the strik-
ers that they had determined to make no fur
ther concession than to assist the shop men to
cheap fuel. Some apprehension of trouble
appears to have been entertained, Sergeant
Morgan and four policemen having been put
or duty at the shops yesterday, at request OF
the company officials, but none of the boiler
makers came near, and there was no indication
of their being disposed to create disturbance.
