more expensive, would cost twice rs much
as bridge would at Robert street. II would
necessitate draw, aud that, besides the in
crease in expense, Commodore Davidson
says would destroy navigation at that point.
Reporter-Mr. Stickney the point is made
that 1t is not time for another bridge and
that we ought to wait three or four years
longer till 1t is needed.
Mr.. StIckney-I know that point is made
but do not regard it as well founded.
In the first place II it
is little too soon now we
win not have the bridge too soon II we COM
mence to build it now, for the reason that it
will take some time TO build 1t. Another
consideration is this: Is it wise for city
that Is growing in business and commerce
as rapidly and as solidly as st. Paul is to wait
till such structure is absolutely, and imper-
itively needed and then set about construct
ing it, Is it not better to build II in time and
have it ready for the business of the
public when 1t Is required than
to wait till the public cannot
get along without 1t and then go to work TO
hurry It through and in the mean time be
put to great deal of trouble, annoyance and
expenses This bridge could be built at pres
ent fo- one-third less than IL could at time
when iron is at It's ordinary price. II the
bridge owing to the low price Of materials,
especially iron, would cost to-day $500, 600,
and assuming that iron will get back TO
its normal price in this country in the next
four years. the problem of whether it
was more economical to build
to-day, or put of the building of the bridge
four years, would result like this: II you
build to-day and borrow money at per
cent. Interest, at the end Of four years the
city would have paid $50, 900 interest which
added to the principal of $500, 900 would
make $3.50, 00O In the meantime the city
has the use OF the bridge. If the city does
not builc till the end Of four years, at which
time iron and other material would have sd.
vanced 10 the normal and usual price Of
iron and other material In this country, the
same bridge would cost $3.50, 900. This
would make a saving of the difference be.
tween $3.50, 900 and $3.50, 900. The differ
ence Of the price Of material now and the
usual price in this country is equivalent to
ten years. interest at per cent. Iron ID

appreciation, and were unanimously adopted.
Mr.. Leyde arose to express the view enter
tanned by an old settler, showing that he was
not friend OF the Improvements his neigh
bors ardently desired.
Mr.. Lieneau spoke in favor Of Sixth ward
Improvements generally and of the Robert
street bridge in particular, which would prove
to be the greatest developer st. Paul can
secure.
Hon. ]. c. Mccarthy spoke In favor Of
Robert street as the best possible location
for the bridge.
A. B. Wilgus ardently advocated the Rob-
ert street bridge site, not because he
was interested in property upon that
street. as he had none there, aud all his
property interests were elsewhere, but he
that location the best for the general welfare
and therefore advocated it.
Paul Martin spoke heartily in favor of the
Robert street bridge site and predicted a
great future for the Sixth ward when it was
secured.
NJ. j. Bell had resided for thirty-one years
In the Sixth ward. Formerly he had favored
a bridge at Broadway, aud in regard to
bridge at Ohio aud Chestnut streets,
there was not sufficient population in that
quarter 10 warrant bridge at that point now,
and looking the whole field over, Robert
street is the spot for the bridge, and the cost
at any other point would be fully double.
Alderman St. Peter made an able speech
favoring Robert street. showing
that the building OF the bridge
would keep the freight warehouses
Of the new railroad on the west side, whereas
the placing the bridge at Broadway or John
street would afford room for them on the
east side, aud the west side would lose the
benefit. SO far as the merchants Of the east
side are concerned, IL was no farther from
Third, Robert or Jackson street, to cross the
bridge, than to 60 down to the Lake Superior
depot or Dayton's Bluff for their freight
The meeting in all its features disclosed
and brought out the unanimous west side
sentiment in favor of the Robert street
bridge.
The subject Of the PIONEER Press hostility to
the improvement demanded by the growth
and general prosperity Of the city was the
object Of spirited comment and criticism,
and IL was fatty and universally that the op-
position OF that paper was predicated upon the
fact that the managers Of the concern are
interested in property at another point for a
bridge site, and for that reason the paper was
being prostituted for private personal ends
when II should be serving and promoting the
public welfare.
The secretary being instructed TO present
the resolutions adopted to the city council the
meeting adjourned.

John W. Roche.

Mr.. Roche. the comptroller of the city, was
found in his Office and was asked what he
thought Of the proposition to construct
bridge across the river at the foot of Robert
street. He replied that he was in favor Of
such bridge, and that the growth of the city
and the immense strides that St Paul was
making in respect to building, and every
thing else pertaining TO great community,
left no room 10 doubt that bridge
ought 70 be constructed. Perhaps we
could get along for a year or two by cramp-
ing ourselves, and bearing with some incon-
venience. do not say that we absolutely
need 1t to-day or tomorrow, but what signi-
ies few days more or lessl II is admitted
that we shall need 1t about as soon as we
can construct it, therefore, what use is there
in waiting. DR.. Day, who is a pretty calm
aud level headed man, said in the cham her
OF commerce last Monday morning.
that we would, or might need
bridge in three years from now. No one
who sees the travel on the Wabashaw street
bridge can doubt for q moment that the
doctor Is right. II DIR. Day was correct, as
he undoubtedly was, there can be no harm
in commencing The bridge pretty soon, for
IL viii take two OF three years 10 complete II,
and we shall certainly need It By that time.

FIRE AMONG THE LUNATICS.
The Wisconsin Insane Asylum Com
pletely Destroyed by Fire
The Lunatics all Saved.

OSHKOSH, Nov. 15.-shortly before IL
O'Clock this evening fire was discovered in
the boiler room Of the Northern Hospital for
the insane, situated about four miles north
Of this city. The flames spread
with startling rapidlty and the
main building was soon enveloped.
Engines have been dispatched from this city,
but the fire is increasing rapidly, and there
is but little hopes Of saving the Institution.
But 500 inmates are confined In the
asylurnn, and they are now being..remoyed.
II is thought that all will be saved
By the diligent work of the department
the fire was confined to the engine room and
laundry. and at midnight 1t was brought I'M
der control. Wild excitement existed
among the inmates, but they were
well handled. aud none were injured.
They are now..being returned to their regular
apartments. Two or three escaped during
this excitement, but searching parties are
now after them. The origin Of the fire Is a
mystery. Estimated loss $l5, 900.

purpose. / could not countersign a contract

and get the proper legislation and start right.
IL the city council should go ahead and au-
thorize the city clerk to advertise for bids,
they would, when received, be re-
ferred to committee. When
the committee reported, which would
be several weeks after, and the council got
the matter into such shape that it could let

for the legislature to meet Therefore
think the best way is to wait for the legisla-
ture to meet and then obtain such legislation
as is necessary.

CARD


EDITOR LEADER:
DEAR SIR:-I was arrested at my
house on Penasco, on the night of
the 29th ult., ON Il writ sworn to by
Mr.. John w. Poe, for the theft of
two head of cattle committed in
the month OF November, 1882.
The Golden Era of 2nd inst, re-
fcrring to my arrest says; "lle is
accused and we understand has
confessed to haying stolen cattle
from L. w. Ncatherman, in No.
vember last, at Seven Rivers. He
is a scn-in-law of old man Booths,
who had TO leave the Penasco a
few weeks ago, and, although he
sympathized with them in their
late troubles, he was looked upon
as being an honest and reliable
man. When | drove my cattle
from Seven Rivers to the Penasco.
in November, 1882, | found, on
reaching my range on Penasco,
those two head of cattle in my
herd. The brand on the cattle
were unknown to me and | inquir-
ed Of several persons who were ac-
quainted with the cattle around
Seven Rivers and on the Pecos to
find out to whom the cattle be-
longed. Among the parties whom
| talked to about the cattle were
T. b. Powell and j. T. Bates, OF
Penasco. | did not find out who
the owner Of the cattle was, and as
| had marked cattle for the last
several years around Seven River
and on the PecOs, and the othe,
parties also of whom | inquired, |
considered the cattle to be stravs,
and as there had been some argu-
ment as to who should hold them.
| told the porties that | should put
my brand on the cattle and hold
them as they had come through
from the Pecos in my herd, and
that | would be responsible to the
owner for his cattle when found.
| branded the cattle and kcptthem
in my herd until November, 1888,
when l sold all my cattle to Mr..
John w. Poe, and those with the
rest. Since then ! have heard that
Mr.. L. w. Neatherland, then of
Seven Rivers, was holding the
cattle for some parties who reside
in White Oaks. The cattle were
branded 20 on the LETT side. The
TACT of my being a son-in-law OF
sold man Booths do not con
slider criminal, and that [ symp%-
thized with the family in their late
trouble is natural. My brothcr-in-
law, Nick Booth, has been the
cause Of much trouble to his family
and great grief to his father and
mother. No unbiased person who
was acquainted with the family
during the time of their residence
IN the Pcnasco community, vii.
blame them for any evil which la,
been done,
Very respectfully,
john 7. EDwARrs.
