ANOTHER HELLO" HOWL.
A suit Filed Against Prof. Gray OF
Telephone Fame.
The New Public Printer--Those YES
sci Seizures.
Another Telephone Suit.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 31.-A bill in equity
has been filed in the district supreme court
by B. G. Berrymen for Henry G.. Strong of
Chicago against Robert B. Vance, acting
commissioner of patents. and Elisha Gray
for an injunction to restrain the issuing of
patent to the latter. The complaint states
that he is the inventor of the railway cleo
trio telegraph and telephone and made APP
plication for patent May IS, 1877; that
this application has been kept alive by
amendments TO claims. etc.; that Gray SUBJ
sequently filed an application for patent
for multiple telegraph" which was by
trickery ana deceit stolen from him and is
nothing but reproduction in principle and
design of his machine and invention. He
charges ON information and belief that by
undue influences and by completely with
the examiners Gray is about to receive a
patent therefor, that the issuing of a pat
ent to complainant is delayed by the undue
influence eXerted by Gray. and the patent
to Gray is about TO be issued by fraud and
collision with the officers of the patent
Office and if so issued will greatly injure
and delay him and necessitate long and
tedious litigation on his part. He further
alleges that he is entitled to have official
action taken on his claim and asks all in
junction and relief. Judge Hogner set the
first Monday in September at II o'clock for
a hearing.

THE RIrILDING Room.

That the most thorough confidence exists
in ST. Paul concerning the surety of con-
tinuance of the wonderful progress which
and that business prospects are of the most
satisfactory character. the extent of the
building operations now going on gives eX-
cellent evidence. A stranger visiting the
city would not need to look over the sub
stantial totals of building permits to arrive
at the conclusion that st. Paul was rapidly
extending her skirts. A casual walk along
any one of the city's more prominent streets
would be more than sufficient to convince
him that progress was watchword with
st. Paul people in no danger of being for
gotten. From the imposing business block
to the handsome residence and cosy cot
tage, on all sides the builder is busy. Resi-
dents returning from few weeks absence
find substantial structures standing where
before were empty lots, and in all directions
they observe the excavations and scaffold-
ings which tell of buildings yet
to be. And the best of it is that it is all
on perfectly healthy basis. The business
growth in the Northwest warrants the
founding of new homes and the building
of new blocks. There is no imitation about
it, but simply compliance with the neces-
sites of the situation. There is, too, the
comfortable feeling in the mind of the
owner that he is not building only to satisfy
his present needs, but that he is also enter
ing into a very promising investment. His
property is steadily and surely increasing
in value with the inevitable accretion in
value which all property in growing city
acquires. He is in fact running sort of
savings bank of his own which is sure to
return him his original capital materially
increased. Nor is this general disposition
to improve confined to individuals The
city has properly taken a hand, and the
grading of streets, the opening of others
and the laying of excellent sidewalks is her
contribution to the general boom. All in
all. very satisfactory picture of growth
and industry is presented to strangers,
thousands of whom, visiting the city dur
ing the next few weeks, will carry back
with them reports, which could only with
difficulty be exaggerated, regarding st.
Paurs prosperity.

FIGHTING MAD.

The Evening Dispatch says that it is an
irresistible conflict between the MCGTLL
and GILMAN factions. The Dispatch is a
GILMAN organ and it says that there is go
ing to be duck for dinner. or there will be
no dinner. 1t is GILMAN or nobody. 1t
goes further and explains that the leading
combinations as they now exist in the Re-
publican ranks are GILMAN and DAVIS on
one side and MCGILL and LANGDON on
the other. AS an organ of the former fac
ton it serves notice on the latter that it is
war to the knife and from the blade to the
hilt. The GmMAN-DAVIs faction burn
their bridges behind them and leave no
place for retreat. The black flag is raised
and there is to be no capitulation on
either side When the two fac
tons meet in the struggle it will
be a deathlock in which one or both will
go down forever. This is pretty bold talk
and has the smack of earnestness about it
that will attract attention. Whether these
audaciouS threats will be fulfilled remains
TO be seen. If they succeed in frightening
the state house gang to let 90 its hold on
the Republican organization the object of
the threats will be accomplished. But if
the crowd now in possession of the fortress
have any confidence in their ability to hold
power they will laugh the threats to scorn.
And that is about what they will do. From
present indications it doesn't look as if the
aSSaulting forces were in condition to de-
mand an unconditional surrender. The
state house gang holds the fort and is not
disposed to haul down the flag every
time a demand for surrender is
made. Our evening contemporary talks
like brave of the olden time. We admire
its pluck. but are disposed to question its
Judgment. At the same time it can do no
special harm by licking into the other fell
lows every chance it gets. They deserve
all the abuse they are getting. They are
treating the GILMAN-DAvIs faction very
shabbily. with all the probabilities of giving
them still more shabby treatment before
the campaign is over. They are going to
gobble up all the nominations.

AN EXAMPLE OF ENTERPRISE

A quality which occasion has caused to
be frequently observed in the average st.
Paulite. and which strangers never fail to
comment upon, is the enthusiasm with
which the citizens of this SANITY City enter
into any project for the general good, or
which is calculated to bring the city into
favorable notice. A notable instance of
this commendable trait is in the spontaneity
with which the request for our business
houses to decorate during fair week has
been responded to. The thousands of
gtreamers which fly gayly to the cool Sep
tember breezes and the myriadS of colOled
lights which lastnight cleaned out have
value far beyond the animated and bril-
liantly decorative appearance they give to
the city. While adding the touch of
color necessary to the gala dress which
should properly be worn at this time by st.
Paul, there is deeper significance than
the mere desire to charm the eye and tickle
the fancy. The universally of the decora-
tons is all indication that the people of st.
Paul require no stimulus to their energy
and enterprise, but are ready heart
and soul to advance the city's interests, and
of course incidentally their own, in any
manner possible. The effect cannot be
otherwise than excellent and far-reaching.
The impression conveyed upon the visitor
by such harmonious unity of action can
only be of one nature. that such people are
just the kind among whom to cast ones lot.
And to all who are moved by that belief
St. Paul stands ready with its verifcation
in the warm welcome with which she will
greet them.

jim, my Carroll Rescued.

ST. LOUIS, Aug. 31.-Sheriff Richey OF
Galesburg, ILL.,, left the city last evening
having in charge the celebrated Jimmy
Carroll. notorious bank robber, wanted
at Galesburg for some operations there sew
eral years. Carroll was handcuffed. Shortly
after the train left East st. Louis Carroll
asked to be taken to the toilet room. Sheriff
Richey complied with the request, but had
gone but few steps down the aisle when
he was seized on each side by man in
linen buster and held until Carroll had
reached the door and jumped from the
train. which was moving at the rate OF
twenty-five miles an hour. Then Richey
was released by his captors, who, with
three other men. also jumped from the
train. AS soon as the train came to
standstill Richey got out, but could get nc
trace of his prisoner. 1t is thought the
rescuers are five well-knOwn ST. Louis
crooks. but no arrests have thus far been
made.
Jimmy Carroll and four men supposed to
be those who assisted in his escape from
Sheriff Richie in East st. Louis were ar
rested this evening at Venice. four miles
north of this city. Carroll and his four
companions were making their way up the
river in fiat boat and had gone as far as
Venice, where they were arrested on sus-
picion and held to wait Identification.

THOSE VESSEL SEIZURES.
A New Point TO be Raised Reg ardimg
the Matter.

NEW YORK. Aug. 31.-A Washington
special to the Post says: A new point has
been raised in connection with the seizure by
the United States revenue of two Canadian
vessels in Behring straits ON the ground
that they were catching seals i'll waters
coded to the United States by Russia. OF
these vessels one is said to have been cap
tured siXty-tive and the other 100 miles
from the nearest point Of land. The
point is this: Did Russia have the right to
convey to the United States by the treaty
in connection with the sale of Alaska the
greater part of Behring straits? Will any
fore gn government recognize such a right
under international law? If the United
States has the right to prohibit British
fishermen from taking fur seals 120 miles
from land, has not the United States the
same right to prohibit British or Nor
wegian whalerS from taking whales within
the same seas? Our rights in Ben
ring straits have never been tested.
1t is possible that the seizure
of these two Canadian vessels by our rev.
enue cutter may bring these rights into
dispute. Inquiry was made at the state
department to-day to ascertain whether the
department had considered the matter.
MISUNDERSTANDING Porter SAID that the
subject had not been brought officially to
the attention of the state department. 1t
was wholly under the control of the treas
ury. where it would be likely to remain I'M
less the owners of the Canadian vessels
should complain to their government and
Canada should, in turn. report to the Brit
ish government, and the subject. in this
manner, would be brought to the attention
of the state department.

felt in various localities extended over two
hourS-from s o'clock to 10 o'clock in the
evening. 1t didn't seem to be any very
great quake after all, Notwithstanding it
was severe enough in some localities to
brighten people from their beds. The
greatest commotiOn that was ere
ated was in newspaper Office
i'll Detroit. The employees that worked on
weekly salaries left the building, but those
who were paid according to the measure
ment of their work stuck to their cases.
No CONSERVATION was created in Ohio,
probably because the Buckeyes are so ac-
customed to political upheavals that they
pay no attention to little matters like an
ordinary earthquake.

CRY OF MEXICO, Aug. 3I.-An adjourned
meeting OF a portion of the members of the
American colony was held late this afternoon
at the house of Gen. John B. Frisbie to con-
slider the charges made against Special Agent
Sedgwick. Resolutions of censure were
pending, but substitute motion was offered
and carried that Mr.. Sedgwick was here as q
private citizen and that it was outside the
interest of the members of the American
colony to pursue the inquiry now pending
into his conduct. The matter seemed to have
subsidized and the meeting closed in five min
utes the friends of Mr.. Sedgwick considering
the action taken as settling the injurious re-
ports against him. The members of the
Jockey club propose giving grand dinner to
Mr.. Sedgwick tonight to vindicate the hospi-
tally of the club and show their respect for
him.

The Bulgarian Crisis.

LONDON, Aug. 31.-Prince Alexanders
journey to Tirnova from Sistova was SER
les of ovatiOns. The people, headed by
priests, focked to the different points on
the route of the procession, and greeted the
prince with joyous shouts of welcome. A
large crowd left Tirnova to get the prince
at point five miles diStanG and escorted
him into the town amid great enthusiasm.
An address of welcome was presented on
behalf of the popuace. and in reply Prince
Alexander congratulated Tirnova upon hay
ing commenced the counter revolution in
his favor. Dispatches from St. Petersburg
state that the leading Russian papers affect
to have great fears concerning the fate of
Bulgaria, where, to quote the language of
one of them. there are two governments
and two armies menacing each other with
civil war" The speedy pacitication Of
Bulgaria" declares another of these papers,
concerns other powers besides Russia"
The correspondent of the Berlin Tag
blatt, at Franzenbad, has had an
INTERVIEW WITH DE GIERs,
i'm which the Russian foreign minister stated
that he would return to st. Petersburg on
Sept. 8. He would 90 by way of Berlin
and would have another conference in that
city with Prince Bismarck Nothing final
had been decided with regard to Bulgaria
in his recent interview with the German
chancellOrs as it was not known at that
time that Prince Alexander would return to
Sophia. NJ. De Giers said he did not know
what the cars present intentions were, but
he was sure Russia would not occupy Bull
gara while that country was tranquil.
Russia's position would be very delicate and
critical should Prince Alexander insist upon
the execution of the men who led the con-
spiracy against him. NJ. De Giers spoke in
condemnation of Prince AleXander'S course,
and, alluding to
ENGLAND'S ACTION
in the premises, said that she used every
thing that came within her reach as an in
strument against Russia. Three leaders of
the conspiracy against Prince Alexander.
including the treasurer of the revolutionary
fund, have taken refuge in Bucharest. The
government decided to eXpel them and mott
fed the refugees that they must leave. The
conspirators thereupon appealed to the
Russian legation for protection. A num-
Der of addresses were presented to Prince
Alexander thanking him for returning to
Bulgaria and demanding the execution of
the traitors. The prince reviewed the gar

LIQUOR PRIVILEGE REVOKED.

The state fair management acted wisely
in revoking the privilege to sell liquor on
the grounds. While there is a liberal
public sentiment in this community regard
ing the sale of intoXicants, there is also a
stronger sentiment that the majesty of the
law shall be maintained at all times and
under all circumstances. There was a
prevalent feeling that it was no more of a
wrong to sell liquor on the fair grounds
than to license it to be sold in the saloons
of the two cities, and also a feeling that the
fair association was entitled to be benefited
by the handsome income which was real
lied from the sale of this privilege. But
when it came to be understood that the
sale of liquors on the fair grounds was in
violation of law, there was no diSSenSion of
opinion that it ought to be stopped. The
prompt action of the fair management in
revoking the privilege yesterday and re-
funding the money to the parties who had
paid for it will be commended by the people
of the entire state.

publican politics are getting warm. Nc
Gill was here some days ago, but Gilman,
who came later appears to hold the fort in
this region. Ex-Gov. Pillsbury was here
and his relatives and friends were seen
working for McGill. A reliable citizen
just returning from then Orthwest says that
Langdon's lieutenant, Sam Hill. from
Minneapolis, with a large company of
aides. has just been at Brainerd
to induce Kindred to help to defeat Gilman,
by running for lieutenant-gOvernOT, but
Kindred remembered the cat and the chest

Falls and other northern towns, where he
and the Langdon-Fletcher syndicate had
claims on newspapers. The general pur-
pose was to defeat G. X. Davis for United
States senator, and they regarded the defeat
of Gilman as the first step toward that re-
suit. The wheat ring and all the other
rings are dead against Gilman.
