PUTTING IN OPERATION
The New Plan of Republican City
and County Organization.

The Union league met last night, with
closed doors, to consider the plan of
city and county organization reported by
the committee Oh last Monday night. The
plan was fully outlined in the GLOBE Of
Tuesday, the important points being the
substitution of primary elections for eau
cusses and having the various committees
appointed by the several conventions in
stead OF by the chairman of conventions, as
heretofore. The league discussed the plan
at some length and, finally. with some I'M
important amendments, adopted. Upon
its adoption, a series of resolutions putting
the plan in operation were adopted. The
substance of the resolutions is as follows:
A committee of seven from the league,
with the president as chairman ex-officio, is
appointed and instructed to call confer
ence of the following: The city and county
committees the ward, precinct, town and
township committees, the citizens Republi-
can committee, all judicial, legislative, city
and county Republican office-holders, and
such other Republicans as may be deemed
proper. The league committee is instructed
to lay the plan before the conference and
urge its adoption. In case it Is adopted, a
special joint committee of fifteen is to be
appointed by the conference, to include the
president. Mr.. Evans of the Union league,
the chairman, Mr.. Heffelfnger OF the citi-
zens, Republican committee, and the chair
men respectively of the city and county
committees. This committee is to be in
structed to call county convention early in
January, 1886, before which the plan of Or
ganization is to be laid for its adoption.
Finally, the league committee is instructed
to report in full the results of the confer
ence.

acity as between the two gentlemen.
At all events the matter faded
away until fiat had been
promulgated by the mayor that three of the
houses should be closed and that George r.
Tanners hotel must do likewise. 1t was
then that the GLOBE cameinto possession OF
the knowledge that it was claimed that Mr..
Tanner had paid 500 for police protection.
1t was published and then followed result

Mr.. Stevens was the first witness who
deposed. He denied the allegations in toto.
He testified that he had never accepted a
cent, directly or indirectly. from
ANY OF THE KEEPERS

he had never accepted cent from anyone
in an illegal or questionable way. He had

Last Week,s Milling,

The first anchor ice of the season made
it's appearance Friday night and, as usual
has caused the mills considerable trouble.
1t began to run very thick about midnight
and in short time most Of the mills were
forced to close down and remain so until
morning. The majority of them ran Sat-
urday, however. The force of the ice com
bined with high lead of water had rath er
disastrous effect on water racks, four
being broken in so that the frame work had
to be renewed. These were the ones be-
longing to the Pillsbury B, Northwestern
and Palisade mills, and the paper mill. In
order to make the repairs, the water had to
be let out of the canal Sunday and Monday,
and during that time all the mills on the
west side except the Columbia were idle.
The water was let in again Tuesday morn
ing and all the mills previously running
were started up again. 1t is stated that
anchor ice was never before known to come
with such high stage of water. Between
Saturday and Wednesday the weather was
quite moderate and no difficulty was ex-
perienced with ice. More trouble. however,
is looked for as soon as the weather be-
comes little colder.-Northwest Miller.

Hon. c. M. Clark Dead.

Hon. Charles Fl. Clark died yesterday at
his residence in Richfield from stroke Of
paralysis. This was the second stroke.
Mr. Clark having nearly recovered from
a severe one with which he was stricken in
August last. The fatal stroke occurred on
Friday night at about O'Clock, and about
twelve hours later Mr.. Clark breathed his
last.
Mr.. Clark was born in Bath, N. Y. June
10, 1885. The family removed to Corning,
N. Y, few years later, and
in 1856 came to Minneapolis. His
father, Hon. Charles Clark, was a
prominent contractor until illness in
capacitated him for work. There were two
other children, one of whom is Joseph Clark
of Clark & Linton, and the other Mrs. G..
M. Cushman. Mr.. Clark mar
ried Miss Addie Hoag, daughter
of Charles Hoag. They had
six children, all of whom are living. Mr..
Clark has held many positions of public
and private trust. He was three times sent
to the legislature from Richtield. He was
deputy collector of internal revenue under
Green B. Baum, his successor being the pres
ent incumbent. For many years he was
secretary of the Minneapolis Fair associa-
ton. He was liberal and public-spirited
citizen, and he leaves behind him the record
of full and well-spent life. He leaves a

The Investigation, the Charges ana
the Evidence.
Although the police investigation has
been somewhat protracted, and despite the
fact that no startling developments were
made in the latter portion of the investiga-
ton. which will close tomorrow, public in
terest is undated. Whether it will result
in eXculpating every one connected with
the salaciouS affair or not it will necessarily
prove potent factor in next springs mu
nicipal campaign, and it is not an uncom-
mon thing to hear the remark: There will
be tremendous revolution in politics in
the spring." and they are made by political
prove uninteresting. Ed. A. Stevens, as
police clerk, has had under his supervision
the matter of regulating the houses of i'll
fame and to him was, in fact. entrusted by
the mayor the system of fine collecting.
Last fall rumors became current that Annie
Watson had paid Stevens money for immu-
nifty, and this was followed shortly after by
reports that other ''MadameS'' had paid
money to him instead of paying their fines
into the municipal court. Mr.. Stevens
promptly demanded an investigation. and
the gentleman who had publicly made The
charge offered to produce proof positive to
the mayor, could it be done without the
publicity of the parties furnishing the evil

to accerL such proofs but the mayor, while

her what it was for she would not tell him,
but said she was mad. She afterwards said
to Slorah that she had paid Stevens an
other SIS because she had to. She said she
paid him $50 in all. The witness also testi-
fled that Stevens had occupied a room in
the house with a girl.
George r. Tanner, the proprietor of the
hotel, testified that he had received black
mailing letters from the police, and that he
had been given to understand that if he did
not pay over to the police 500 he would be
raided. He testified that he paid Capt
Chase 500 at police headquarters to pre-
vent the threatened raid.
Carrie Moore gave evidence that she had
paid Stevens money at various times in sums
varying from SO to SIS, and with the un-
Outstanding that it was for immunity.
Annie Watson testified that she, too. had
paid Stevens money at divers times in sums
varying from S12 to $50 for immunity from
punishment.
Sergt. Kirkham's testimony was of no
weight in the case. 1t was impeached
? I'd above was the only damaging testi-
monS adduced, save the records of the
orphans fair, showing that the 500 paid
box containing the fund voted towards
Chief Vests silver service, it having been
offered in defense that the money had been
contributed to that source.
In defense Mr.. Stevens introduced vol
luminous testimony to prove an alibi in so
far as the Annie Watson testimony affected
the case. He showed that on the particu-
lar dates she claimed to have paid him
money he was in certain places where he
could not have reached her. He has put no
new evidence touching the other points.
Tomorrow the case will be summed up
and it is probable that besides Mr.. Stevens
several members of the commission will air
their Oratory.

divorce case, which has figured extensively
in both the courts and newspapers for
months past. The only thing new in the
case was the answer of Mrs. Chamberlain,
in which she prefers counter charges of
adultery against Mr.. Chamberlain, alleging
that in 1885 he was guilty of adultery with
Mary Schilling. and that it was on account
of this unfaithfu!ness that she left him.
Mrs. Schilling, who is reputable lady liv-
ing at 1922 Western avenue, is highly in
dignant at what she claims is an entirely
unwarranted use Of her good name in
this unsavory connection. The Pioneer
Press and Tribune religiouSly copied
the offensive article, and all three are to be
defendants in libel suits shortly to be COM
menced by Mrs. Schilling to recover So, 900
damages in each instance. 1t is claimed
that the answer of Mrs. Chamberlain was
not matter of record and therefore not a
privileged communication which could be
treated by the press. This is something
new in the history of libel suits-a plaintiff
claiming damages for injury to reputation
by the publication of an article in which the
animus was supposed to have been to reach
another party, with whom she denies any
relations OF association.

Will Get There Vyith Both Feet.

It has been in some way intimated by
some of the papers that Architect Bufing-
ton has put a lien of S4l,OOO on the West
hotel, claiming that amount due him for
services as architect. He tells a story Of
his retention by the late Charles W. West
to plan the building. the understanding be-
ing that it was to originally cost 500, 600
and his fee was to be $4,000. He places
the cost of the building at 5000, 900 and
claims his per cent. fee would be $50, 900,
of which he has received about $1,000.
The singular part of the story is that no
process OF any kind has yet been served on
Col. John T. West and no paper filed in
the district court. Col. West was asked
about it yesterday and said:
81 amt sayin' a word, am 1? I know
nothing Of any lien, whatever, and hold
that am not in Mr.. BufHngton's debt I
can say nothing now, but if there is to be
