Minister. Dies at DelanO.
News was received yesterday of the death
of Rev. Charles Rollit of this city at
Delano, after an illness of about one week.
Mir. Rollit was taken sick Aug. 1 with
cholera morbus, and rode into Delano a
distance of about twelve miles, where he
secured proper attention. He appeared to
be improving, but on Thursday was taken
worse, and from that time on sank grad
ually, diving about O'Clock yesterday morn
ing. On Saturday, John u. hall, his
brother-in-Iaw. accompanied by Drs. Coe
and Phillips. went to his bedside, but all
efforts 10 check the fatal malady were una
yailjng. The remains will be brought to
the CITY to-day, when the arrangements for
che funeral will be decided upon.
Rev. Charles RolIit was born in England
in 1910. and was in his seventh-tifth year
at the time of his death. When he was 81
years old he went to Canada, where he was
admitted, at Montreal i'll 1914, to the Epis-
copal ministry. he came to Minnesota in
1866, and was for two years rector OF the
Episcopal church at Hastings. Since then
he has devoted himself to missionary work,
principally in Dakota county, although liv-
ing in Minneapolis, where he resided at

sition, which made those with whom he
came in contact his lifelong friends. AL
though advanced in years, his rugged con-
stitution permitted him to continue his
chosen work, and it was while upon one OF
his customary pilgrimages through the
country that the fatal illness came upon him.

English PoiiricaI troubles.

LONDON, Aug. S.-Negotiations between
the Liberal leaders in relation to the forma-
ton of an electoral program for uniting all
the sections of the party have been deciSively
ruptured. The meeting which has taken
place between Gladstone. the Marquis of
Harrington and Mr.. Chamberlain has shown
no common platform is possible. Mr..
Chamberlain declined 10 abandon the rad
ical propaganda of graduated taxation of
property, free education, labOrers' allOt-
ment 1T low rents or the scheme of home
rule. The declarations made by him in mis-
speech at Hull followed the rupture with
other Liberal leaders and were taken
as an open manifesto that lie
had unfurled the flag of leadership
of the Radicals. and that henceforth
he would be free from control of Gladstone
or the Wing party. The anxiety of mOder-
ate Liberals for the return of Gladstone to
active political leadership becomes more in
tense. There will be confusion worse con-
founded without him. Herbert Gladstone
informs the inquirers that his father has re-
covered the full use of his voice. Glad
stone tells his friends he has undertaken a
yachting cruise for the purpose of estab-
fishing his vocal strength so he may be fitted
to perform a prolonged platform work. In
the meantime, he says, any strain affects
his voice, and he declines to even hold con-
verse, except of short duration. An I'M
biased opinion prevails that the premier, not
withstanding the effort he is making to add
to his strength, will be unable to take a
prominent part in the electoral campaign.

The police were OH the search yesterday

believed to be wandering about in de-
mented condition. Late Saturday night
she escaped from the Northwestern hospital
and has since been missing. She had gone
into bathroom and locked the door, but
as no search was made until her long stay
excited suspicion, it is supposed she got
through the window and had a long start.

An Officer Slightly Injured in the
Usual Sunday Row.

The usual Sunday afternoon matinee oc-

Washington avenue, yesterday. When the
horde that lives in that neighborhoOd has
beer, a fight follows with unerring GER
tainty, and an abundance of beer is most
always had on Sunday, consequently the
fight yesterday. The worst feature in these
Sunday afternoon conflicts lies in the fact
that the riotous distuIrbers of the peace all
resist arrest. and collision between them
and the police is the rule. Many of the
police have been roughly used in the scrim-
images. One officer last year had his arm
broken by having been struck with club.

to prevent the regular recurrence of this dis
graceful fight.
Yesterday the gang got drunk and began
smuggling each other. Officer Swan Walton
went down to quell the disturbance and he
was greeted in the customary way. The
crowd stopped its fighting and turned upon
him. One young fellow pulled out a knife
and made slash at Walton, infiicting a

The Pooling Texas.

AUSTIN, Tex, Aug. s.-Gov. Ireland
has addressed to Attorney General Temple
ton the following letter: IT call your at
tentiOn to the late act of the legislature
demanding action against the railway
companies to break up and pre-
vent the consolidation of competing
lines. also call your attention to the late
conferences in Galveston between the own
erS of lines in Texas. 1t is understood that
the main officers of some of the principal
roads are to be or are being moved
out of the state. There can be no doubt
that each main road in Texas is eompet-
ing line to every other road in this state.
and that the consolidation can take
place without violating the provisions
OF the constitution and laws. 1 hope you
will not delay again in this matter and then
the railroad companies may be required to
conform their action to the constitution

profesSed to be in utter ignorance of tO-day's

will maintain its average S6.75 rate, and
that the new association men have ended
their big cut, but as no result has been
achieved, except that several hundred men
have filled their coal houses at low figures,
it is presumed the end is not yet. Pioneer
people say they demoralized the opposi-
ton by declining to meet their cut, but the
cutters announce their satisfaction at having
diverted so many patrons from the mo-

CURRENT COMMENT.

''What right have the motor line people
to lock people up in Lake Calhoun park?
That is what want to know" was the Ian
guage of an indignant passenger on the
motor line last evening. 81 went out on
the motor and went into the inclosure and
took a boat ride Then I wanted to go
with friend outside, but the gateman re-
fused TO let me through. don't think it is
right"
The ordinance making it an offense to
drop pieces of wood or stones in the streets
should be more rigidly enforced. The
drivers of wildwood carts and of teams
hauling stone and other building material
manifest an entire disregard for the ordi-
nance. The consequence is that the streets
are constantly in disgraceful condition of
litter.
Everything is not serene with the park
commission. Commissioner Morrison is
blunt and Outspoken man, and he has al
most irreparably fractured President Lor-
ing's exceedingly sensitive organism. A
long time ago the park commission voted
that no more stone should be quarried from
Riverside park. Notwithstanding this ac-
ton, however, the president asSented to
Mr.. White, one of the former owners of
tne property, continuing TO quarry stone.
Mr.. Loring says he acted in accordance
with Prof. Cleveland's plan, Also by max
ing the excavation square. But the eXpla-
nation was not satisfactory to Commits
sioner Morrison. He insists that the orders
OF the board should be implicitly carried
out, and his structures were so severe that
the sensitive president thought him cynical,
and threatens to resign. At the last
meeting of the board, he stated that for
months he had devoted his fOTenoons to Wis
iting the parks and parlways of the system
and he averred that he was the only MEM
Der of the board who had displayed such
enterprise and energy. Mr. Morrison is
fully aware of the fact that the president
has taken umbrage, but those who know
his nature best are inclined to believe he
will never apologize for any harsmess.
Yet the prevailing opinion is that Mr.. Lor-
ing will not resign. A special meeting of
the board may be held this week, when
matters will be fixed up.
