The New Stock Yards Enterprise.

The extensive sheep corral aud feeding
sheds at the stock yards, described in the
GLOBE Of Saturday, are now completed and
1, 100 head Of sheep were placed in them yes
terday. These sheep, brought down from
BOZeman, Montana, are very smooth and
even animals, averaging 40 pounds and
will, when fatted, make excellent mutton as
coarse wool blood prevails being had from
COtswold and Leicesters BY MerinO sires.
There are 1, 400 more on their way and these
will soon be followed By another batch. AS
was stated in these columns on Saturday
when these sheep are fstted they will be
sent to the seaboard and shipped across the
Atlantic to England; that is all that do not
meet with a ready and advantageous market
here. There is another industry deserving
of immediate attention. that OF pork and
beef packing, ham and bacon curing. II
seems curious TO a stranger visiting the stock
yards when he is told that hogs live and
dressed are shipped hence to Chicago and
returned in the shape Of mess pork, hams
and bacon and also that thousands Of cattle
annually go through these yards to Chicago,
and thousands Of tons Of mess beef and dried
beef are handled here annually from Chi
cago. II should be like shipping Goals to
Newcastle 10 ship mess pork and beef, dressed
beef, bacon and hams 10 St. Paul with all the
advantages and resources she has for pack
ing houses and bacon factories. There viii
no doubt be one If not two more packing
houses here before the commencement of
another season, but there IS room for half a
dozen.

THEY STOPPED THE CLOCK.
Burglars Blow Safe at Peterson's
Saloon with the Above Result.

The willy burglar and safe gopher was
on deck in St. Paul early yesterday morning
and this time they succeeded in making a
pretty fair haul. About 4 O'Clock yester
day morning burglars effected an entrance
into the saloon Of Cornelius Peterson at the
junction Of Seventh aud Bradley streets, and
succeeded in blowing open the safe,
securing from between $500 to $500
The building is unoccupied after mid
night, and an entrance was made from the
rear of the saloon. The burglars drilled the
top OF the safe, and it is considered that they
are not professional" men from the fact
that they used double the quantity of powder
necessary, the door of the safe being blown
clear across the room. The explosion was
heard by some Of the neighbors, and it was
such as to stop the clock, which quit running
at 4:17 O'Clock. 1t Is supposed that the job
was done by the same men who blew open

The st. Vincent Wheat Ring Ar
Faigned.
Especial Correspondence Of the Clio

Especial Correspondence OF the Globel
ST. VINCENT, Dec. 13.-I see in late
issue of the st. Paul Pioneer Press statement
from Wheat Ring Hubbard that the difference
in the price of wheat in Emerson and st.
Vincent is only temporary, and that there
had been no buyer at Emerson until lately.
Now, sir, the above are entire fasehoods,
and calculated to mislead. There have been
two (2) wheat buyers at Emerson since the
1st of October, and they have been paying
fifty-six cents per bushel for wheat that
would only bring twenty-seYen cents at st.
Vincent.
In the same issue Of the p. p. Collector
Bookwalter SAYS: The most of the wheat
graded at st. Vincent is No. straight. Now,
sir, there is not, 1 believe, one load in ten
that is graded No. straight at st. Vincent
as the grade fixes the price always, and the
prices paid are from 22c 10 4Sc per bushel,
the average price being about SIC, as their
books, we believe, would show. 1t is plain
to see where the niger is.
The above can be certified to by numbers
of farmers who are taking their wheat to
Emerson, paying the duty and making from
&c to lac per bushel on it.

Arrangements are complete for the great
masquerade carnival, which is to take place
here on Thursday evening, January s. The
committee, Messrs. w. L. Prince, A. Il.
Doe, Fred FUote and c. 1. Fall, will do every
thing that can be done to make it a success,
as they are young gentlemen who ale fully
competent to manage such a grand carnival
az they will have. The invitations are being
prepared and will be issued in time so that
all may be ready. The committee have full
charge Of the floor, to which no one will be
admitted that has not an invitation from the
committee. There will be some grand cos
tunes.
In our account yesterday Of the building
boom we ind we are considerable under the
valuation of many of the buildings in not
having the prices Of the lots high enough,
as one-third of the value of the buildings as
the price of the lots was not enough. 1t
should have been nearly two-thirds. The
past year has also shown larger amount of
painting and putting houses and fences in
order than any former one. To show this
more fully we find that Crandall 81 Barclay
sold in 1892 1,500 gallons Of the Minnesota
Linseed Oil and Paint company's prepared
paint, l, 700 gallons in 1888 while this past
season they sold =, 700 gallons. This is be-
sides what has been sold Of other paints and
oils by other parties The people are graft
fed at the good showing in the building
boom this season, and have more hope than
ever of the future of this city.
At the municipal court yesterday morning
VIM. Fitzsimmons, a drunk and disorderly,
was ired IS aud costs or ten days. He took
| the latter. Chas. Wickes had his case laid
! over until this morning at o'clock. He is
a close mouthed sharp one. He stole q
watch and ring from James A. Wiles as de-
scribed yesterday. he was sent to the county
Jail not being able to put up $500
bail. George Hiltz was charged with
having in his possession very
large assortment Of goods that did not be-
long to him. He had them in the barn in
the rear OF Bromley's stable, where the robe
was found, and consisted in part of a crock
of butter, ham, pair of drawers, four pocket
knives, two pairs of socks, two boxes
of fish hooks, pair of overseoes, two
| cans of corn, one can of beans,
the contents of several clothes lines, and
other articles too numerous to mention. He
pleaded not guilty, and the case was set for
Wednesday at O'Clock, and he was adj
mitted to bail in 500, his father being his
security. The bail may be all right but 1t
looks as If the father did not have much
money after paying all claims against him.

cranky when the bluecoat nipped him, and
yesterday he was up for obstructing the

him fifteen bills.
Fred Zahn also went to the fire, but he
was on the lay out for a srap, and he got it.
During the excitement he nailed bunch Of

TRANSPORTATION NOTES.
The 81. Pdtsi's DeciSi ION.
IChlcago Tines

The st. Paul people have finally given
their decision regarding the contract by
which the Wisconsin Central uses their
tracks from Schlessingerville, TO Chicago.
They were ssked by the Central people If the
contract was broad enough in is scope to al
low for an extension Of the Central to ST.
Paul. They have replied that the present
contract is too limited, and that new one
will have to be made to provide for the trans
portation of business between Chicago and
st. Paul. 1t is understood that the Wiscon-
sin Central management will not enter into
a new contract which materially changes the
present arrangement, and it was stated yes
terday, by an official in position to know,
that there is little doubt that the Central will
begin at once the construction Of q line
from Schlessingervilie TO Chicago. Driven
10 this extreme, il is reasonably certain that
the Central win not join in the Northwes-
tern Traffic association unless it be given
the percentage it may demand. The pros
pect from the most hopeful standpoint is
that the new line viii proceed to advertise
itself after the most approved fashion By
precipitating a freight war between Chicago
and the northwest.

Syllabus-A creditor proceeded to garnish
insurance money claimed to be due his
debtor upon the loss BY fire OF a stock of
goods covered by policy Of insurance, in
which the loss, If any, was made payable to
a third party who appeared as claimant in
the proceedings, as "his INTEREST," should ap-
pear. He claimed an interest in the goods
by virtue-of a chattel mortgage thereon, ex-
ecuted by the debtor. Held that as against
the creditor, plaintiff in the garnishment
proceedings, such mortgage if valid on its
face, and given in good faith, was sufficient
TO uphold the right of the claimant to the in
surance money, to the amount actually due
thereon, though the mortgage was never filed
for record.
Order affirmed. VANDERBURGH ].
