salary Question.
Council struck an economic streak last
night, and cut down bills in an astonishing
way. The monthly budget amounted to
Sis, 51O.7S, and was ordered paid with the
exception of bill in the First ward for
So, 569.53. Aid. L'Herault had his stricken
from the budget, and made quite a speech,
charging the street commissioners with
certain Irregularities, both in time of men
and III the selling of dirt removed in grad
ing. This amount was Withdrawn from
the budget and afterward the men were
ordered paid all amounts not
to exceed $50. A decided howl
was also raised over the Sc. 600 bill for
street sprinkling, many of the aldermen
claiming the work was poorly done and en-
tirely insufficient A heated discussion re-
suited and the bills for the lower wards
were held out, the others amounting to
81. 600 were ordered paid. About siXty-one
gas lamps were ordered in the First ward.
and though Aid. Haugan raised an alarm
that the estimate was being over-drawn.
Aid. Sly made a speech in which he said
Minneapolis was the worst lighted city in
the union, and the lights were ordered.
An ordinance was adopted forbidding
pilng lumber in the main residence district
of the East side. 1t meets CRYING want
in that portion of the city.
The report of the committee on salaries
was taken up, and as the list included
several officers whose salaries were
fixed last year, they were stricken
from the list. A motion to take
up the list. seriatem was defeated. The
following change was made, beyond which
the list stood as printed in the GLOBE last
week: Street commissioners $1,000. At
this point the cry, The Nicollet house is
on fire. rang through the chamber, and
the council adjourned till 2 o'clock today.

AGAIN THE VETO.
The Mayor Dtsapproves the Ordi-
nance Extending the Patrol Line.
He Does Not Believe in Imaginary
Lines Smacktng of Hypocrisy.

Mayor Ames created breeze in council
last evening by vetoing the recent ordinance
extending the patrol line limits. The mes
sage is characteristic of the man, and is
given in full as follows:
To the Honorable City Council; Gentle
men: l herewith return to you with
out my approval certain ordinance passed
May II. 1886, and entitled IAN ordinance to
amend an ordinance entitled an ordinance to
license and regulate all persons vending, deal
ing IN or disposing of spurious, VinouS fer
mented or malt liquors. as the same now
reads as amended, which ordinance was
passed April 26, 1854, and approved April 2S
1854
am opposed to the drawing OF ali imagi-
nary line OF rights in any municipality and
especially i'll the cosmopolitan city OF Mime
apols. as my Democratic prejudices do
not coincide with those entertained
by portion of the political Judiciary. There
is, i'll my opinion, no good reason why q DOM
1nant party should give one portion Of city
rights which they deny another portion, nor
should they force upon the people living in
one locality an alleged evil which they en-
deavor 10 shield those living in another local
lily from. The selling OF liquor is either right
or wrong, and if wrong it should be pro-
moited in all localities alike. While / ac-
knowiedge the "dead line'' as drawn by q
former administration as one of the legal
monStrosltleS of this age OF fanatcsm and
hypocrisy. and entitled to be treated by the
executive as an alleged law, still recommend
to your honorable body an early repeal of the
same and the enactment in its stead OF
reasonable restraints against an evil which
cannot be plotted out. but which should be
placed under control and where it will do the
least possible harm. The people in the re-
cent municipal election pronounced in no I'M
certain voice against further continuance
OF sham and deceit, and hope your honora-
Die body may be able to see the matter in the
same light your constituents saw it q few
short weeks ago when their voices came
through the ballot boxes. Very respectfully
your obedient servant.
A. A. AMEs Mayor.
The question at once recurring upon the
ordinance, on the call, shall the ordinance
pass over the veto? it failed to pass by the
following vote:
Aye-Barrows, Clark, Clough. Downs, Hau-
gan, johnson and Pratt-S.
No-Cloutier. Dwyer, Gibson, Lawrence.
L Herault. Moreck, Mills, Phelps, Phillips,
Sly, Stoft and Swenson-12.
The ordinance now stands as it did last
year, and the city attorney says money
must be refunded to those who, under the
rejected ordinance took out licenses

FINES OF OUTCASTS.
A City Law Says One-third of 1t
Shall Go to Bethany Home.


The recent action of the powers that be
in causing the money paid in as fines by
the keepers of houses on First street to the
city treasurer instead of to the clerk of the
municipal court, who turned over half of it
to Bethany home, has called forth much
comment, both favorable and unfavorabIe,
and bids fair to become the leading
topic of the hour. From the
manner in which it is pro-
posed to conduct their matter it will at
once be seen that the home receives q Sc
we're blow, and there are persons in the
city who state that this action. was done
with view to crippling that institution.
Mrs. Harriet G. Walker, secretary of the
Sisterhood of Bethany, said last evening:
This new order Of things is certainly very
unkind cut, and will leave the home prac-
tically-yes, totally-without means OF sup
port. I cannot understand why it should be
done. Nearly one-half of the inmates of the
house are regular city cases, and in
case we did not take them in the poor
house would be obliged to. No, know of no
action the house will take in regard to the
matter The way we shall support it is by
private subscription, l suppose, until some
thing can be done. The manner in which we
came TO get part of that money taken in by
fines was this: Some years ago we put in q
petition 10 Inc common council asking that
we might get share of it to support the
house, which offered shelter to the class, in
many instances, from which the money was
collected. The council could do nothing,
there being no law on the SUBJ
ject Then We went to the legislature and
secured the passage of such law. On again
| referring the matter to the council. we got
one-th1rd OF the money, and one-third of it
went into the sinking fund toward building a
| new home, and the remaining one-third went
into the gene al fund.- This ran on for some
time, when tne one-third going into the sink

to assist in making the boycott effective;
that a committee from the Trades
and Labor assembly should be APP
pointed to obtain the address
of all firms. companies and individuals who
contemplate placing their goods upon exhi-
bition in the building should be duly noti-
fed of the boycott and why it had been
ordered. The resolutions were laid on the
table for the time being and committee
was appointed to make thorough investi-
CATION of the complaints made and advise
the assembly in the premises.
The committee appointed to make an ex-
animation of the building of Barnes, Hen
gerer Il Co., reported that they had found
the plumbing in bad shape and not done in
compliance with the ordinance; noXiouS
gas was found TO issue from a workroom
on the fourth floor that was thought suifi-
cient to create sickness.
THE WATER BOARD APPOINTMENT. 3.
1t was reported that the following resO-
lutions had been signed by about four
thousand citizens, including not only
organized workingmen, but many promi-
nent business men. and a special commit
tee was appointed to present them to the
mayor and city council:
whereas, For long time it has been GUS
city work in connection with our water sys-
TEN; and,
Whereas, Home mechanics and laborers
capable OF doing this work are Idle; home
manufacturers stand ready TO do the work as
well and cheapy as it can be done i'll the
East, and home business men have goods on
their shelves which they would gladly sell to
mechanics and laborers in the city, if the said
mechanics and laborerS could earn the means
to buy; therefore,
Resolved, That we denounce the practice of
sending vast sums of money out of the City,
for work which can just as well be done at
home, thereby distributing the money among
our working pc ople and business men, to the
general benefit Of the whole city; and
for this purpose, and as the only
means of obtaining this end, we
earnestly desire the appointment of men on
the water board who are squarely and UNI
equivocally in favor of keeping the work in
this city, and who have stamina enough to
vote their convictions on the board and we
further desire the dismissal of all officials con-
nected with the execution of the work who
are hostile. directly or indirectly, to having
the work done in this city.
a resolution from the Switchmen'S union
was received, which asked that the assembly
should undertake to induce all railroad
companies to place steps on the front and
rear of their engines, and that no engine,
unless so equipped be used for switching
purposes. 1t was stated that the death of
j. Z. Anderson on the Milwaukee road was
due to want of this precaution.
4 motion was carried to indorse the eff
fort of the BARRIERS brotherhood in moving
to close their shops Oh Sunday, and the
moral support of the assembly was pledged.
1t was reported that an employment
agency, located at 1T Washington avenue
south, was sending men out to Dakota
upon the assurance of getting work, which
had not been furnished according to
promises.

HAD ST. yITUs, DANCE,
Which Destroyed His Nerves and
Brought E i'm to Suicide.

The body of Ferdinand Schultz was
fiished up yesterday morning from the deep
waters of Fish lake, near Osseo. Coroner
Hill went up there in the afternoon and de-
cided it clear case of suicide, so certifying
without the necessity of an inquest.
Schultz was the wealthiest farmer of the
neighbOrhood and was worth at least $780,
900, but his case proves that health is better
than wealth. He was subject to the nerv-
Gus disease known as st. Wins dance, and
had been unsuccessfully treated for it until
his nervous system was complete wreck.
He was utterly unhappy and made his large
family miserable by his tidgity complaints.
Last Sunday he went to church at Osseo,
paid his pew rent. settled his church dues,
and apparently made himself square with
the world. BIT it failed to relieve his mind,
and his affection preyed upon him him
constantly. He accused the children of
eating too much butter and drinking too
much coffee and complained of grass grow
ing in the corn. Next morning he started
out with son to work out his: road tax,
directing the boy to go around the lake
while he crossed in a boat. The last seen
of him he was rowing irresOlutely about on
the water. That night the drifting boat
was found, and it was evident Schultz was
drowned. Andrew Rake aud Matthias
Meyer dragged the lake and found the body,
which was buried yesterday afternoon.

A Fireman Protests.

night, "the fire department was called by an
alarm from box 315 to the corner of Grant
and Nicollet avenues. This is one of the
boxes that No. s, Blasdell avenue and Twen-
ty-eighth street, responds to, and in going to
the fire the deplorable condition Of the streets
on both sides of Nicollet was demonstrated.

compelled to hunt its way along Blaisdell

HOW THEY WORK 1T.
A Verdant Eau Claire Man Robbed
~

at ST. paul.
Yesterday a young man called at police
headquarters and related the following
tale of betrayed confidence:
He had been working steadily in the woods
near Eau Claire for the past year, and had
accumulated SI65. With the sum in his pos
session, he had come TO Minneapolis with the
intention of going on to Sioux Falls, Oak,
where he expected to purchase a piece of
land. Yesterday he went 70 the union depot
to purchase his ticket. Just as
he had asked the price some one
touched him on the shoulder. Turning
he saw a man about fifty years old, well
dressed, with gray hair and closely cropped
beard. Come with me and I'll show you
where you can buy ticket for dollar less
said the stranger. The unsophisticated lum-
herman thought dollar saved is q dollar
earned. so he accepted the invitation, and the
two started up street. After having gone
but a short way, the stranger remarked Il
believe that can get you to Sioux Fails for
nothing, I've got car loid of horses 10 take
up there, and the man have had with me
got drunk, so discharged him. If you'll
come to St Paul with me I'll put you in his
place. Tiis was even better and thanking
his luck and the kind-hearled old gentleman
the Eau Claire yakel road to St. Paul
WITH LIGHT HEART.
Arriving there, as they walked up from the
depot the stranger went into the German ia
Ddnh, SlOppcu Inere ICr lew minutes and
came out with huge roll of bills of big de-
nomination, remarking, ''what do you think
of that bank, eh? A friend of mine came
here ten years ago without q dollar
and now he is president, and together we own
& controlling interest ''Wait Just a min
ute here said the stranger as he ran I'D a
pair of stairs. Coming back miuute later.
he said: Il want to settle an account here.
Can't you take this check to the bank and
get some small bills? Mine arc all too large.
Confound it, though, you couldn't identify
yourself. Here, You have some money,
haven't you? Well, let me have it, and after
pay this bill we will go 10 the bank together
and get the check cashed, and then want
you to take q saddle that / am going to bring
down to the train" OF course, the Eau
Claire man forked over his S165. The stranger
took it and hastily ran upstairs. He id not
come down again. The Eau Claire man in
vestigated, and found there was a rear STAIR
way which had furnished the bogus horse
dealer convenient exit to another street
The Eau Claire man realized in an instant
that he had been victimized by one of those
''con'' men that he had read of in the new s.
papers all his life but had never seen. He
Immediately informed the police of st. Paul
and Minneapolis of his loss, and was not
greatly comforted when he was told that he
stood very small show for his money.

j udson Institute Commencement.

The commencement exercises of Judson in
stitute, held last evening at the building ON
Harmon place, partook more of the nature of
big reception than graduation exercises,
and was one of the pleasantest affairs which
has been held in the city for some time. Be-
fore o'clock the two large halls of the hand
some building were filled with pupils, their
parents and friends. Foliage and towering
plants in abundance lent an air ofenchantment
to the scene, which was made almost perfect
by the merry laugh and sharp repartee of the
numerous young ladies. At 8 O'Clock, the
principal of the institute, Miss A. A. Judson,
called the assemblage to order, and made
short address in which she referred feelingly
to the pleasant season passed at the institution
and the progress of the young ladies' She said
there was one young lady pupil who had
made exit aordinary progress, and held her
up as model for others to pattern by. The
person referred to was Miss Alice Berry, who
was called forward at the conclusion of Miss
Judsons remarks and presented with grad
uation diploma.
