WATER MATTERS.

Regular Meeting ofthe Water Board Last
EoeninD.
A regular meeting of the board of wa.
ter commissioner was held last evening.
Present Commissioners Foote Davis, Grim
shaw and Brown, Engineer Waters and
Superintendent Henion.
The session was productive of disposing
of a large amount of routine business.
Commissioner Foote from the special
committee to whom was referred the mat
ter of the Minneapolis Boiler Works COM
pany, reported that thorough investiga-
ton had been given the subject, and found
that the contractors bill for the
use of the diving suit was erroneous. The
committe found that from March 25th
to May 30th, the contractor had been
stopped from work in laying the intake
pipe by the city. They furthermore found
that the rental of the diving suit should
have been So per day instead of SIT.
Col. Glenn was given the floor to make
| statement. He proceeded to explain
that the city had constructed Golfer dam
| after the contract had been made, which
occasioned the delay, so that instead oil
putting in the pipe from the ice, as calcu
| lated by the contract, the work could not
be done until the ice had gone out, placing
| the contractor at loss of several thou
sand dollars. He would compromise, how
ever, and settle for $4,000.
The report of the committee was adopt
| ed, SO settling the whole business.

alton, j. W. Hutchinson was granted license
10 preach. After discussion it was decided
to hold two distinct conferences each year,
Monticello being selected as the place for
holding the next. Reports of committee
on home mission were presented and
adopted. Rev. G. F. Garvin read most
interesting paper on Homestead Reli-
gion," followed by an interesting discus
sion. DR.. G. A. Van Anda was excused
from reading his paper on "The Bible and
Art" because it was designed for general

The Humboldt mill will probably be

The Minneapolis mill has been started

The Palisade mill started up Monday at

1t is the expectation that by Saturday

The st. Anthony and Dakota mills will
probably both be started up Monday. The

ADISAPPOINTMENT.

Thomas Brennan, the Er-SecretaTy of the
Irish National League Fails to appear.
Owing to the announcement in all the
papers that Thomas Brennan would speak
in Market hall last evening for the benefit
of the orphan fair, a large audience had
gathered to hear the distinguished Irish
man. Had the orphan fair not been in
progress the Irish citizens of Minneapolis
would have accorded him different re-
ception, and the president of the national
league, Hon. Ed. MoDermott, had explain
ed the matter to G. NJ. Mccarthy who is a
member of the executive committee
of the organization for Min
nesota. In reply TO Hon. Ed.
McDermott's communication, G. NJ. Nc
Carthy sent the following letter, dated
Sept. 10:
Dear Sir: Your note received here and
in reply regret that Minneapolis cannot
get up meeting to hear Mr.. Brennan,
one of the truest friends of Ireland. Had
1 been advised to that effect last week
could have made another arrangement for
that date, Sept. Is, but it is now too
late. AS to his attending the fair cannot

Father McGolrick consented and ex-
pressed his pleasure to have Mr.. Brennan
visit this city and speak at the fair and
Mr.. McDermott telegraphed to Mr.. Bren-
nan, Merchants hotel, as follows:
|'Piease come to Minneapolis. We
will meet you at the Nioollet," and
to Mr.. Mccarthy he sent another dispatch
asking when Mr.. Brennan would arrive in
Minneapolis. and saying quarters were
secured for him at the Nicollet. No an
swer was received from either party. Mr..
Gallagher went to st. Paul yesterday, and
could not find Mr.. Brennan. He visited
the law Office of @. III. Mccarthy, and
found on the door notice that he was out
of town, and would be absent for a few
days. This explains the disappointment
experienced by the audience last evening.
Prominent Irishmen present said Mr.. Nc
Carthy knew very well that every
distinguished Irishman who honored this
city with a visit was well received,
and further he knew that they had
