represented himself as Capt. Chase in a
house of ill-repute," said a cyprian to a
friend, as they whisked around street

lost to the eavesdropper, because he hadn't

further details in the just now interesting
theme.

''Sergt Kirkham has jumped into a hot

he looked very knowingly toward AID Sly,
who was engaged in caressing his beautiful
blonde beard, and who stood in deep medi-
tation. Awakening he made the further
suggestion that the kettle of tar recently
purchased by number of stalwart sons of
Germany in North Minneapolis will never
pay the interest on the investment.

DISPUTED TAX TITLES.
The trial of a suit involving the title to
four lots in East Minneapolis occupied yes
terday in Judge Rooms court. The case was
tried in November, 1884, before Judge Koo1,
who decided that the tax title of c. W.
Hobart and Jesse B. Chatterton was valid.
j. B. Gilfillan, the plaintiff, took an appeal
to the supreme court, which set aside the
decision of the lower court, holding that
the question as to whether the lots were in
Bottineau's or Northrop's addition should
be decided by a jury, and not by court
trial. Northrop's addition is surrounded
by Bottineau's Addition, and block 20 con-
tains twelve lots, four of which the plaintiff
claims lie in Northrop's addition. The lots
lie on Eighth avenue northeast and Market
street, and are worth about $4,000. The
suit originates from the absence of plats of
either addition upon the files in the auditors
Office.

How 1t Managed to Defeat Its Pro.
spective Rival.
CLEVELAND, o., Nov. 9.-The reason
for the recent sudden raid of the Standard
Oil company as Independent refiners has
just come to light. 1t was for the purpose
of shutting off rival pipe line between
Cleveland and the oil regions, and very eff
fectually has that work been done. This
piping of oil has been one of the great diff
culties in the way Of competition. The
line now in existence is absolutely con-
trolled by the Standard, and it could pump
oil for its own use and that Of the concerns
working with it at a figure the outside re-
finers could not touch through transportation
by tank cars. There were two difficulties
in the way of rival line, one being the cost
of it and the other the fear that there would
not be enough oil taken by outsiders to
make it pay after being built. Steps had,
however, been taken to overcome these OBJ
jections. Some of the heaviest independ-
ents became interested in the proposed new
line and things had even gone so sar as to
obtain an agreement with Phillips Bros,
heavy producers in the new field, to supply
all the trade oil needed for long time in
the future.
THE STANDARDS DEAL
was made with Clark Bros, who were said
to have been leaders in the new pipe line
scheme and then the other large outsiders
were gradually worked in. That shut off
the pipeline scheme by taking from it those
who were expected to put up the money for
the building and also the chief support
after being built. This left small refiners
to keep up the old fight with less chance
than ever, and less hope for the future,
and it is not strange that they one by one
sailed into the harbor offered by the Stand
ard-in fact the only one left them. They
say in excuse for the surrender that they
prefer to run to a fixed yearly amount and
make money on it than to run great deal
more and make nothing. None of them
have been making money of late. Now
they can get their crude at less price than
they have been paying. and the amount
the Standard has agreed they shall make
can be sold at profit. Between the pipe
lines and the railroad rebates the Standard
had them in tight corner, and to surrender
was their only alternative.

BLOOD AND BROKEN GLASS
COnspire to Make au Exciting Scene

A disgraceful row, which included

rectly in front of the intoxicated pair. Pres
emily the car moved off and the roughS be-
gan to air themselves at the expense of
Smittings. A moment more and remark
was made rejecting on his companion and
Smittings' fist dropped heavily on the face
of the rowdy who made it. A shrek went
up from a dozen ladies as the bruiser.

others having been freely applied to pro-

the fracaS until outsiders had stopped it,

batants had disappeared by this time and
interest centered in a young woman who
tainted at the sight of blood. Six men
were skirmishing for police officers, but
without success. and finally the car, cleared
