4 SERIOUS CHARGE
Preferred by a COrOner's jury
Against a Prominent Physician.


Coroner Hill held an inquest yesterday
on the fetus taken from Christiana Nord-
berg, which tended to show that the girl
had suffered an abortion. Fletcher Clay
ton, at whose house, No. 1412 South
Seventh street. the girl was taken sick, tes-
titled as to the calling of physician, hav-
ing called Dr.. Pearson, whose address the
girl gave him. The doctor left some medi-
cine for her, During the night the girl
Jumped from the Second-Story window.
Mrs. Francis Utter testified that
Christianna Nordberg told her that
the doctor had used instruments
for which she YVES TO pay S25. Mary En-
mons testified that the girl had told her
how she was led astray; also as to the
nature Of the PHYSICIANS treatment and the
delivery of fOetuS. Late Thursday night
the girl asked for water, and while witness
was after it she jumped from the window
DR.. j. W. Little testified to attending Mrs.
Clayton and that the Nordberg girl told him
of the use of instruments. DR.. Van CIeve
also testified as to that the girl told him
DR.. Pearson had used instruments on her.
He said he had refused a request from the
girl TO perform an abortion. After other
witnesses the coroner's jury returned the
following verdict:
THE VERDICT.
We find from the evidence that the babe,
Nordberg, came TO its death by the use eff an
instrument, used by one DR.. J. Pearson Tor
Peterson), whose office is at No. 313 Washing
ton avenue south, and who resides on South
Third street.
DI. j. Pearson, whose name is unfor-
tunately connected with the above case. is
one of MINNEAPOLIS most highly esteemed
physicians and surgeons, and against whom
no charge OF professional rregularity has
been before preferred. He enjoys the con-
fdence and esteem of his profession, and it
is the general sentiment of the physicians
that he is entitled to more than ordinary
leniency and charity. under the circum-
stances.
DIR. PEARSON ARRESTED.
DR.. Pearson was arrested last night upon
warrant sworn out by Sergeant Hill,
charging that he performed the surgical
operation as mentioned in the inquest. He
was at once araigned, and gave bonds in

panv. I'M fact he has already hooked nearly

pany. In fact he has already booked nearly
twenty of the best vaudeville combinations,
and the new era at the Comique will be in
augurated one week from Monday night.
This will do away with the ''first-part
girls" The theater will, to accommodate
the change undergo many material arehi-
tectural alterations. All the boxes, except
the procenium, will be torn out and the
galleries consequently enlarged. The stage
will be set back and enlarged, occupying
the second story of the n. F. Warner
block. just being completed in the rear of
the Comique building. Manager Brown
promises to introduce none but the best
vaudeville talent, and to improve the tone
eff the entertainments until the most fastid-
ious will find nothing distasteful to them.

Since the alleged exposure of the meth
DDS of the Theatre Comique, Mayor Pills
bury and Sergt. James Smith. who is spe-
cially detailed to attend to license matters
in the city, have been prosecuting sort of
an investigation and also applying the
means to the end. At first it was threat
ened to revoke Manager Browns LIQUOR
license. although it was acknowledged that
no specific complaints had ever been re-
ceived at headquarters Of Irregularities.
Sergt Smith. Mr.. Brown says, has acknowl-
edged Furthermore that he has made tours
of inspection and found the Comique saloon
closed promptly at II o'clock each night,
and that he had found it closed on Sundays,
yet the fact seemed patent that liquors had
been sold in connection with the saloon.
After joint consultation satisfactory
compromise was agreed upon. The condi-
tons of this compromise are that Mr.. Brown
shall sell no more liquors in the theater;
that the barroom be removed to the next
adjoining building, known as 1.-The Set
Cottage" and also owned by Manager
Brown. No time was lost in carrying the
scheme into effect. Yesterday the license
was transferred and the work of removal
promptly begun.
To a GLOBE reporter Mr.. Brown stated
last night that he should radically change
the character of his entertainments. Here
after he will play combinations entirely,

Evolution i'm Paper Money.

Prof. Folwell told his political science
class yesterday morning in an excellent
paper how paper currency had changed in
the history of the country. After giving
the substance of two supreme court de
cisions, affirming the constitutionality of
paper money, he said: The trainers OF
the constitution meant to abolish all kinds
of paper money. They abolished none.
By a series of legislative and judicial acts
it has become the right and perhaps the
duty of congress to issue paper money. 1t
may issue promises to pay on the Greek
kalends, ana you and l must take them for
our days works or take nothing. Such is
the supreme law of the land. The supreme
court has simply done what reasonable and
practical men had to do. Our respect for
the court increases when we find them dis
cussing such questions rather as statesmen
than as lawyers, however much we may De
amused at the requirements by which they
support their decisions. Constitutions are
not made, they grow. On this question
the constitution of the United States has
been made to face about from the position
given it by the fathers"

One trouble of the sheen business in the

past has been that it was too much prone to
extremes-away up, then away down. The
men who have not been afflicted with dis
position to change with every tide are the
ones that have made the money out of the
sheep business in the past. and are most
likely to do the same IN the present ext
gency. Many of those who have been wise
enough to buy sheep in place Of selling
them while prices were so very low will
make some money the present season, and
there is still time to stock up with good
sheep much below their value. The man
who has little spare capital and some
feed cannot make much better investment
than to purchase frst-class sheep.

Special to the Globe.
DULUTH, Nov. 81. 7. Odell, assistant
general manager of the Northern Pacific
railroad, and Capt. Wrenshall superin-
tcndent of bridges, and other prominent
officials, arrived in special car to-day and
were busily engaged on matters connected
with the new pier and warehouses. which
are to be constructed right away to replace
the present warehouses and docks.
The new slip of the North
ern Pacific Railway company will
be on large scale, and calculated to afford
ample accommodations for traffic of all
kind. The wheat, ores and salmon of
Washington, Oregon and Montana will
find there ample facilities for transship-
ment to steamers as readily uuloaded
on the wharf. Capt. Wrenshall
says that large amount of
work will be done this winter. The North
ern Pacific railway track is in good condi-
ton and the general prospects Of the line
are satisfactory. Mr.. Odell says that the
company is now prepared to go on with the
work. He met here Mr.. Sawyer, Mr..
Munger and others, to all of whom he ex-
pressed satisfaction at the present state of
things.

tiating the purchase Of Central Iowa. AS
the Milwaukee has not made any negotia-
tons for the narrow-gauge, the rumored
action of the 80" is also probably canard.
1t is, however, current rumor that the 20"
is figuring to get control Of all that part OF
the Wabash system west of the Mississippi
in Iowa and Missouri, for the purpose of
making complete its connections with st.

CURRENT COMMENT.

There is no change in the situation of
mills and railroads, and nothing more than
was given yesterday. Another mill started
up. making nineteen of the twenty-three
mills in operation, in spite of the advanced
rates. A struggle is going on among the
mills, none of which is making any money
at present and the one which can outrun
the others may draw away little of their
trade.

Eight of the leading citizens representing
the jobbing trade of Minneapolis left last
night for Chicago to present themselves be-
fore the general traffic managers of the
Northwestern pool and protest against any
movement looking to an abolition OF the
present carload rates. They will be join ed
bv delegation from Kansas City and are
confident of accom- lishing their object.

There is a peculiar interest taken in the
case against Police Clerk Stevens to be
heard in the municipal court this morning.
An officer in the discharge of his duty is
morally certain to make more or less
enemies who are ready to seize upon any
pretext for retaliation. On the other hand
there are certain rumors and stories going
the rounds referring to the class OF people
known as ''roomers'' and embracing the
demi monde generally, in their peculiar re-
lation to the police department, that the adj
ministration owes it to itself to investigate.
This one case Will be investigated to-day.
and until then the public must await IN
patience.
