THE CUSTOM HOUSE.
Prospects of the Passage of the Bill
Not Good.

-
Not Good.
Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON. June lathe condition
of the st. Paul custom house bill is little
precarious, but Senator Mcmillan hopes
he will be able to carry it through. Mr.. P.
Fl. Kelly, in his laudable anxiety to get this
measure before congress, placed all the pa
pers in the case in the hands of Congress
man Gilhllan during his visit home to Min
neapolis month or six weeks ago, Mr..
Gillian being by this action on Mr. Kelly's
part charged with the responsibility for the
BILL None of the other Minnesota men
have given it any attention, except that, as
soon as the matter was called to his atten-
ton, Senator Mcmillan introduced in the
senate bill similar to that introduced by
Gilfillan in the house. 1t was promptly
taken up by the committee, reported favor
ably. and at once passed. 1t now is before
the house, but no attention has been given
to it of late. Mr.. Gilfillan's time has been
taken up very largely in. looking after.
THE MINNEAPOLIS BUILDING,
and there has been some apprehension that
the st. Paul custom house has suffered in
consequence. Gilfillan, however, says that
he will give his best support to the bill for
the st. Paul building, and has hopes that it
will be passed this session. Senator Nc
MILAN also says that he thinks it will pass
He is giving the matter some attention on
the house side, and while he cannot say
without reserve that the bill will pass, he
evidently has reason to believe that it will
not be left untouched when congress adj
journs. If nothing else is done with the
appropriation it will be put in the civil
sundry bill in the senate, which is equiva-
lent to passing it outright

Some Well known Men Found in
the ROtundaS.
Judge J. L. Mcdonald, Skakopee, was at the
Ryan. He is judge of the Eighth district and
is serving his second term, having been
elected in 1871 for the first time. An old resi-
dent of the state he has served respectively
as newspaper man, lawyer and a judge.
and has acquitted himself creditably in each
of the three branches. roek-rooted Demo-
crat he has ever been, but since his elevation
to the bench he has taken no active part in
politics, although at heart interested in the
success of his party. His expressed idea of
the coming campaign was to place the best
possible men in nomination for all the offices.
r. G. Mitchell, Duluth, who was at the
Merchants, claimed that the Zenith City of the
unsalted sea was q great deal cooler than St.

He is still bitterly opposed TO the nomination

Duluth, being the chief city in the district,
has some claims which should be considered
in the selection Of q congressman. 1t is
needless to remark that his paper-the
Tfibune-is not supporting the present repre-
sentative for third term.
EX-Marshal Denny came in from Winona.
He said that he had been to Winona in at
tendance at the union of the federal court
and had been so busy that he had had no
time to think of politics in general, or of run
ming for congressman in the Third district.
1t is generally understood that the late
United States marshal has serious Thoughts
of running for the place made vacant b. the
expiration of Maj. Straits term. and the lat
ters' refusal to enter the race for renomina-

A LIQUOR DECISION.
A Widow of Drunkard Beats the
whisky Sellers

Special to the Globe.
DEs MONIES, Ia, June 12.-The SUI
preme court this morning decided the case
OF Mrs. Rachel Huff against Amman 81
Schuster in favor of Mrs. Huff for dam
ages on account OF the sale of liquor to
Mrs Huff's husband, who, it is claimed,
became intoxicated, fell through Coon river
bridge and was killed. Mrs. Huff
testified that he often gave
her his wages and afterward asked
for part. She knew that he would buy
beer but gave it to him to keep him from
getting angry. Defendants claimed that
this being true she contributed to his intox-
ication. and that it was question of law
whether she did or not. The lower court
left this question to the jury and the supe-
rior court holds that this was right and that
she was entitled to the verdict OF the jury
on the question of fact.
ut must be borne in 1nind,' said Judge
Reed, "that the money, while it was in Mrs.
HUFF S possession, in fact belonged to her hus-
band. 1t was his earnings and he had the
right to the control Of it. He was under obli-
cation, it was true, to afford support for his
wife and children, but that fact did not vest
her with title in the money. Unjust be borne
III mind also that the probable result of
refusal by her to deliver the money to him
would have been the refusal by him to paw
any portion of his future earnings to her.

emily. Most of the seats about him were
taken. The lad was apparently years old,

coming to the lad, the gentleman said:
Young o., will you get up aud give this
lady and myself your seat?''
The youngster hardly moved q muscle. but
replied deliberately: II should say not. Don't
my father pay taxes? You'll have to

Uuited States Marshal Campbell returned
yesterday afternoon from Winona, where the
court had been in session for week. His
deputies and throng of witnesses. who had
not been paid off for lack of time, came with
him. Of the party were about fifty Indians,
who had served the government as witnesses
in the liquor cases. These people, men,
women and children, disposed themselves
about the custom house corridors in various
pastures. so that one had to step over them
in order to get to any one of the Offices. They
are an interesting set but were only waiting
for a little Of Uncle Sans money.

Senator D. T. Goodrich of Blue Earth City,
was at the Clarendon yesterday. He was in
terviewed ON Second district politics, and
said that there had been but little action
taken in that district thus far. Regarding
]. b. Wakefield, he said that he would
not put in bid for the gubernatorial nomi-
nation. and that he didn't think he wanted to
pluck the congressional plum again. A. II.
Bulls, representing the farming element,
wants to go to congress, he said, but the Al
lance in that district has but little influence.
and he thought Mr.. Bulls chances for the
nomination were very slight. He didn't
know how the people felt on the question Of
governor, but thought the choice would be
made between Gilman and Gibbs.
