to all the sub-districts in the United
States and Canada. A resolution
was also passed to purchase 500 copies of
q. A. Lafayette's pamphlet on Capital and
Labor. Thomas Ward stated that ont of
the twenty-three men working on the court
house only eight were competent workmen,
the others were doing very inferior work,
and he suggested that Architect BasSford
examine the work and learn whether it was
what 1t should be.

Resolutions OF the Contractors As
ISOLATION 10 That Effect.
The Contractors association had lengthy
meeting at its new room in the Ryan hotel
YESTERDAY. The constitution and bylaws
were ordered printed, five new members
were received, and the board of directors
were ordered to employ permanent secre-
tarv. On motion of Mr.. Cox the following
resolution was adopted:
Resolved, That il is the sentiment of this
association that ten hours should constitute a
days work. and whatever be the number OF
hours thar 6 clock be the hour to close.
A few of the contractors were in favor
of shorter hours and in sympathy with the
demands of labor but the large majority
expressed different sentiment many quite
earnestly. Among the arguments advanced
was the fact that those who were now con-
tractors had once been lourneymen, work
ing ten hours, and were now working stlll
longer hours. 1t was the sentiment that
the demand for shorter hours was but one
centering wedge for demands for the recog-
milton of union labor and higher wages,
and it should not be encouraged. Timothy
Reardon said that nearly all non-unlon
labor were in favor of ten hours work and
that four-fifths of his employees wanted ten
hours. The resolution adopted was merely
the sense of the meeting and is not obliga-
tory on any member. The clause about
quitting at was adopted to regulate mat
tiers where trades might be working differ
ent hours. Ii carpenters are working for
a contractor at ten hours and bricklayers

Next Mondays exposition popular
which. by the way, will occur at the Grand
instead of at the rink-will be an excep-
tional event in that it will be distinguished
by three equally eminent stars. There are
no better than Lehman as a singer. OF
than Rummel as pianist, or than Musin
as violinist. Each will command from
the audience the interest and attention
which belongs TO the highest exponent of
musical art. Lehman has for ten years
maintained her place at the head Of the
Imperial Opera i'm Germany, and as the
Emperor's favOrite court singer. As such
she was by great favor loaned to the Metro
politan Opera House in New York
the past winter. for its season
of German opera, of which she
was as in Berlin the head and queen.
Rummel stands in the same high place as a
manipulation of the piano, as does Musin as
a violnist. There will be no display of
mediocrity at this cOncert-no filling in
while the bright particular star is waited
for. Each of the two is great artist. and
each will take and hold the interest and
attention of the audience. The concert
will be an event long to be remembered in
ST. Paul.
The subscribers tickets for the Lille
Lechmann-R ummel-Musin exposition pOpu-
lar can be had at the Grand, already re-
served, at any time after tomorrow morn-
ing. On Friday morning the box office
will be at the service of the general public.

TOOK HIS OWN LIFE.
James II. GridIey Dies From the
Effects of ChlOrOfOrm.

Shortly after o'clock yesterday after
noon lad named Webster, employed in
the Union block, on the corner of Fourth
and Cedar, went into room As and discov-
cred the occupant, James b. Gridley, dead
in his bed. On his face was cloth which
had evidently been saturated with chloro-
form and near by was an empty bottle
which had contained the fluid. Mr.. Grid
ley was 73 years of age, matchmaker by
trade and had lived in st. Paul since 1869.
His wife died several years ago. He has
a daughter in saltwater, wife of James
O'Gorman, secretary of Senator Sabin.
The other children also live in
Stillwater-there being five in all. Mr..
Gridley had been sick for two weeks, and
was a great sufferer from sciatica. 1t is
supposed this induced him to take his own
life. His life was insured in the Connect
cut Mutual Life for $500, and in the Odd
Fellows for 50, 600, of which order he was
an old and prominent member Members
of the family arrived in the city last night
The body was removed to Leigh's under
taking establishment at Bridge square.

were G. Bouck of Oshkosh and @. w.
Woodward of La Crosse. He did
not think that Postmaster General
Villas contemplated making the race.
although there had been some
talk to that effect. The election next fall,
he thought would be a fair test of the
growth of the two parties since the last
election as showing the effect of a Demo
cratic administration on the rank and file of
the voters.
49,
Referring to national politics he said that
he did not believe that James G. Blaine
should be nominated for the presidency a
second time, and he would make the pre-
diction that Blaine would not become the
nominee of the Republican party in 1855.
He said this not from choice of any par
ticular man, but purely as convie-
ton of political policy. He had favored
Blaine in the convention Of 1850 and 1884,
as did the entire delegation Of Wisconsin,
and even now was a most enthusiastic adj
mirer of Blaine. and, if he could so will IL,
would prefer Blaine of all men for presi-
dent 1t was not question of personal
choice with him, but a question of party
policy. He did not think it was good pol
icy to put in nomination for the presi-
dency a man whom many old Republicans
throughout the land believed to'be dishon-
est. He maintained that he had never
seen anything i'm Blaine's record that
proved him TO be dishonest. but other Re
publicans put different construction on
the record, and not only believed him to be
dishonest but did and would vote against
him on that account
~ 4
Mr.. Taylor said that he wanted a man
nominated whom they could elect, and not
one who would divide his party and force
many of the conscientious Republicans to
vote for Democrat, as would be the case
If Blaine was nominated. 1t was the duty
of the Republicans 10 nominate a man
who would be elected. He thought, being
true Republican, that the somebody
whom the Republicans nominated would
be elected over President Cleveland, who
would be the Democratic nominee for a
second term. he was free TO confess that
if ex-senator Thurman of Ohio was named
by the Democrats as their standard bearer
in 1883 the conflict would be too close to be
pleasant

Col. Allen, who went to the Pacific coast
a few weeks ago, to fill his lungs with salt
air, writes that the country is small and
uncomfortably crowded with people, the
majority of whom are sight-seers and
