Johns summary OF
Mondays News.

On Sunday night or early yesterday
morning the residence of De Lorme b.
Harbaugh, at 90 Western avenue north was
entered by burglar and jewelry and a
small sum of money stolen. The burglary
is a rather mysterious one for the reason
that it has not been ascertained as yet how
the robber got in the house. All the win
doys on the first and second floors are pro-
tected by storm windows and all the out
side doors have, beside the usual fasten-
ings, spring locks of an improved
pattern. At o'clock yesterday morn
ing, Mrs. Harbaugh says she heard
some one moving about in the
lower part of the house, but at the time her
husband remarked that she only imagined
so. When the servant arose in the morning
the disturbed appearance of closets ana
sideboard told the story too well. Inc
officials are of the opinion that the burglar
was either scared away before he had COM
Melted his search or that he was novice at
the business. Several articles OF Jeweiry
and two watches valued at $3.50 were taken,
and Sc in cash. None of Mrs. Harbaugn' S
own Jewels were taken. which would carry
out the theory that the burglar was not
professional. The police have clew which
NAV lead to the robbers capture. but up 10
last evening the fellow had not been ar

Fond dU Lac Indians.

CLoQUET, Nov. 22.-Judge Wright and
Maj. Larrabee, of the Northwest Indian
commission. have for the past week been
comforting with the Fond du Lac Indians at
this point regarding their removal to the
White Earth reservation. AS a result of
their Investigations here they state that
they find the Fond du Lac Indians far bet
ter situated than any others in Minnesota.
and while they propose the removal to
them, they do not strongly urge or advise
it, because they do not consider that their
condition would be bettered thereby. The
government is deciding to each head of
family eighty acres of land of their own
section. and many of them are engaged in
extensive logging operations and farming
to certain extent. They have adopted
the habits and customs of the whites, and
have comfortable homes. No white men
are allowed to work ON the reservation in
any capacity excepting those who are mar
red to squaws, and those Indians who have
begun logging on claims taken have been
this week stopped by the agent until their
patents are secured from the government.
About 10, 900, 900 feet OF logs will be put in
this winter, which have already been sold
to contractors.

TIE FsssRE RIES.
canadians Hoping for a Modifica-
ton on the MaShinglnn Treaty.


NEW YORK, Nov. 22.-An Ottawa, Ont,
special says: Reports coming in from
Gloucester and other New England fishing
ports. from the agents of the Dominion
government, continue to show the great
loss American fishermen have suffered
through the abrOgation of the fishery clauses
III the Washington treaty, and the conse-
quent privileges American fishermen have
forfeited. 1t was generally supposed that
the heavy duty imposed On all Canadian fish
imported into the United S ates would prac-
tlcaily close the market against the Domin-
ION. Such, your correspondent was in
formed to-day, has not been the case. The
total value of the exports of fish for the
nine months ending September 80, was
81 $40, 900, against $1,000, 600 during the
corresponding period of 1886. This only
leaves sLrinkage Of 10 per cent on the
total export notwithstanding the barrier
raised in the United States markets against
Canadian caught fish. Several members of
the Dominion government have expressed
themselves greatly pleased with the result
OF this years fishing. believing that it will
have the effect of bringing the United
States government to time in negotiating
treaty of some sort, when they begin to real
iZe how heavily the American fishermen
have lost by the abrogation of the old treaty.

A SUIT OVER MINING STOCK.
Beginning of the Trial of the Well
known Case Against the Florence
Mining Company.


Yesterday afternoon the well-known
Florence Mining company case came up in
the Ramsey county district court. The
title of the case is James K Humphrey
against G. w. Carpenter, d. A. Monfort
and Charles Eaton. All these gentlemen
are well known and are, or have been,
prominent business men in st. Paul. Mr..
Carpenter, who is partner with Capt.
Blakely in the stage and wagon
train business in Deadwood and other
parts of Dakota. got hold of a
mining claim and formed corporation with
the defendants and some other citizens of
st. Paul for the purpose of developing it.
The mine was called the Florence mine, and
the company was organized and known as
the Florence Mining company. The trans
action complained of by Mr.. Humphrey
took place about six years ago. The sub
stance of his charge against the defendants
is that by fasle Misrepresentation and fraud
ulent practices. they induced the plaintiff to
take a considerable amount of stock, which
was wholly valueesS, whereby the plaintiff
was swindled out of a large amount of
money. He therefore seeks in this suit to
recover it. The plaintiff is represented by
Hon. j. B. Brsbin and c. B. Humphrey.
of Akron. o., brother of the plaintiff.
Judge Flandrau appears for the defend
ants.
The case of John Schmidt against the
Manitoba road, to recover damages for in
juries received while in the employ of that
company, and the case of Norton Wilson
against Joseph Ehrmentraut & Co., were
dismissed.
In the case of Byron Smith, administra-
tor of the estate of Sophia Connoyer. against
Nels Swenson, Judge Simons flied de-
cision in favor of the plaintiff. 1t is suit
over the title of some real estate. Judge
Brill allowed a new trial in the case of
Charles A. Smith ct al. against Roland E.
Patterson ct al. The same judge, in the
case of Edward Wulff against Daniel Lasch-
niger, awarded judgment in favor of the
plaintiff for $109. % and interest with costs.
