a DIFFERENT STORY
Told by the Judges to ExOnerate
Mr.. TruesdcIl,

Charles Fust and John Sullivan, the
two Democratic Judges at the Sixth dis
trict Of the Third ward, make state
ment in relation TO the procedure at
that polling place, to which reference
was made in Thursdays GLOBE. The
statement is verified by affidavit, and is
as follows:
The statement that Mr.. Truesdell
picked up three Democratic congress
sional votes and proposed to tear them
up. when it was found that the number
of votes exceeded the tally of the clerks
is not true i'll any sense. Mr.. Truesdeli
made no such proposition. The facts
are these: The Republican congress
sional votes happened to be counted
first and strung, and when the Demo
cratic votes had been counted it was
found that there were three too
many votes, and they were laid aside on
the table, when Mr.. Truesdell said:
"Mr. Fust, what shall we do with these;
shall we tear them up?' Mr.. Fust said:
NO, we will put all the ballots in the
box, shake them up, and pick out
three" to which Mr.. TrueSdeil as
scented cheerfully. as being the correct
and proper thing to do. Mr.. TrueSdell
himself put the ballots back into the
box, shook them and held them up, and
Charles FuSt took out three, which hap
pened to be Republican votes. Every
one appeared to be satisfied and moth
ing more was said about it, and these
are the true facts in the case.
We deem this statement due to Mr..
Truesdell, as we believe him to have
acted in fair and impartial manner in
all the duties pertaining to the election

L'ENFANT TERRIBLE.
A Clairvoyant's Hard LIck---The
Story She Tells.

A young woman giving her name as
Adelaide smith put in an appearance at
police headquarters yesterday morning,
accompanied by two lady friends, and
asked that the police aid her in recover
ing her baby, which she said had been
been stolen by Mrs. c. l.. Lamont,
clairvoyant. who until recently has
had rooms at 514 NicoIlet avenue. The
young woman stated that her husband
had left her, and that she had gone to
Mrs. Lamont to get her to exercise some
spell in bringing him back to her. Mrs.
Lamont, she continued, bad taken her
baby in order to carry out the charm
which was to bring back the absent
man, and had then departed for st.
Paul. taking the infant with her. The
case was given to Inspector Hoy, and
last evening he went to st. Paul, az
rested her, and, bringing her back to
this city, placed her in the central sta
ton.
Mrs. Lamont, when visited at the sta
ton last night, was deeply affected at
her position. She was tastefully
dressed and told her story between fire.
quent fits of sobbing. Now" said she,
'thiS young woman came to me- some
time the latter part of September, with
her baby in her arms. and told that the
father OF it was married man,
we'll Known here in Minneapo-
lis, where he has a wife and
five children. She stated that
the people she was living with were
very unkind to her and asked me what
she had better do. She did not, she
disgrace. After a long talk told her
would help her to find place to work
and home for the baby. At my sug-
eeston she advertised in the city papers
for some one to adopt the child and for
place for herself as wet nurse. The
woman had tried to get into
one or two of the charitable in
stitutions, but they refused to re-
ceive her, SO took care of her myself.
Soon after she put the advertisement in
the papers carpenter who was then
working on the glass block called at
my place with his wife TO see about
adopting the baby. Adelaide Smith, as
she called herself, was not there then,
but finally arranged meeting be-
tween her and the gentleman and his
wife. The mother said she wanted the
child to have a good home,
and, as she was not able to care
for it herself, she gave it to the care

will. do not know where the child is,
because do not know where the gen
tleman who adopted it lives. He was
very careful that nothing should be
known about the matter, as he did not
want it known that the child was not
his own. Mayor Ames knows about the
case, for a long time ago l wrote to him
asking if the woman could not be
placed in Bethany Home. He replied
that she could. got his answer on the
day the child was adopted. If this is
what is called abduction, then l don't
know what the word means.''
Mrs. Lamont's friends are indignant
at the charge which has been brought
against her. and declare that she will
have no difficulty in proving her inno-
cence. They say that it is the ease of
the 'man who took a frozen viper to
his bosom" over again.

Mrs. Robertson put in an appearance at

ston's Great Run.
The city council yesterday began the
| canvass of the vote for city officers. 1t
! proved Il serious job. The work was
begun at IL in the morning, and as the
GLOBE goes to press the committee of
clerks is just finishing up the Third
ward. Aid. Cooley, L'Herault, Glea-
appointed on the committee. and
with the instruction that they
must keep steadily at work until
the canvass was complete. they started
in. Meals we're furnished them and
with only few intermissions for re-
freshmcnts they toiied away, making
the footings. An average of fourteen
minutes to precinct was consumed
and at that rate the work will not be
complete until o'clock. to which time
council adjourned.
The First ward showed heavy run
for Winston for mayor, he having re-
ceiVed ,594 votes against 627 for Babb,
Il majority of 964. For treasurer Moul-
ton received IA against 1906 for BuX
ton. and CalderwOOd, for comptroller,
got G51 against 1859 for Holbrook.
Byrnes, for municipal judge, received
l,5lG and Emery GS1. Rand, for
special judge, got 1.429 against
80 for Mahoney, the latter
getting the Irish vote. Barton, for
justice got 1919. leaving 666 for Van
| Cleve. The various boards received
the party vote, except thai A. A. Ames
tor the park board was scratched con-
siderably. h cGowan, Brueshaber and
lngenhntt for aldermen easily led their
Republican opponents. The vote was:
McGowan l,541, Chabot 60, Brueshaber
1.164. Ingenhutt 1.493, BraZenski 647,
and Brown, Independent, 919.
In the Second ward Winston again
led the ticket, receiving GA against
1898 for Babb; Baxter 5S4 and Moul-
ton 1860; Hollbrook 622 and Calder
wood 1872; Byrnes 55S, Emery 1884,
Rand 645, Mahoney 1850, Barton 613,
and Van Cleve 1882. The Republican
candidates for aldermen easily won, the
vote being as follows: Four, years.
Johnson l.195. Mcmillan IA; two years,
Barrons 1894, Smith 1888, Moore 675,
COnroy $50.
The exciting contest was over the
aldermen in the Third ward, and the re-
suit was to seat one Democrat and two
Republicans. The vote was as follows:
-Four years, McArdle, DEM, 1891, Durn-
ham, Rep, 1921, Mills, Ind, 7l6: two
years. Gilman, DEM, 1874, Kieihle,
Dem, 1913; Wilson, Dem. 1886,
Eustad, Rep, 2,1os, Mortimer
Ind, 4S9; Dahn. Ind, sos. This
elects Durham, Gilman and Kieihle.
though McArdle will probably ask
a recount, as it has developed that an
incorrect count was made where four
year "sticker" was placed over a two
year man. On the city ticket Winston
again ran ahead, getting 2,G13 to 1858;
Moulton had 2,344 to 2,40S for Buxton,
and Calderwood had 1890 to 2,4O0 for
Holbrook. Winston's run will be APP
preciated when it is remembered Har
risOn carried the ward by 50.

Complicated Rental.

The premises occupied by Joseph r.
Hoffiin, at 1O1 Washington avenue
south, were the subject of a complicated
lawsuit which was on trial yesterday
by Judge Rea. Richard NJ. Hooley. Of
Chicago, owns the property, and Mr..
Hoffiin holds ten years lease Oh the
same. Mr.. Hooley brings suit for $4,000.
which he alleges to bedue for rental.
Mr.. Hoffln replies that Mr.. Hooley made
a subsequent contract to sell the build
ing to him for $4,000 and to lease the
land for $500 ayear rental. This he has
offered to pay, but Mr.. Hooley demands
rent under the previous lease, alleging
that the latter contract is void. The is
sue is upon the precedence of the con-
tracts. Mr.. HOoley claims that Mr..
Hotfiin agreed, at the signing of the
latter contract, to erect $4,000 build
ing on the land, which he has failed to
do. For this reason he asks to have
that contract declared void and the pre-
vious lease valid. The trial will be re-
Sumed this morning,

THE OLD LOTTERY SCHEME.
Mr.. Grimes Tells How 1t Worked,
Rut Post Got Off

The examination of George w. Post,
under the name of Charles Kelly, on a
charge of swindiing Jonathan L. Grimes
out of the neat little sum of $1,000 by a
bunco game, was held in the municipal
court yesterday afternoon and attracted
a large crowd. Among the crowd were
anumber of familiar faces, those of Col.
Pat Sullivan and and Col. John Flanli-
gan looming up most prominently.
James Worrall appeared for Post, while
County Attorney-Elect Jamison was
present for the state. Post looked as
smooth and pleasant as ever, and not
once did shadow of trouble mar the
calm repose of his characteristic face.
j. L. Grimes, the victim, man of
nearly seventy years of age, was the
first witness. His story was an inter-
esting one, and at times decidedly
laughable. He was walking down Mic
ollet avenue one day, he said, when ii
young man standing on the corner of
Fifth street approached him, called him
by name, and introduced himself as
son of H. G. Siddle, of the First Ma
tional bank. The young man spoke in
such pleasing way, and showed so
much knowledge of Mr.. Grimes affairs,
that the old gentleman was taken COM
pielely OIL HIS SudIu. AlttI Gilc TWO
had been talking some few min
utes, the young man remarked
that he had recently purchased a
ticket in the Chicago Art association,
aid had just learned that he had drawn
a valuable set Of books. He would like
Mr.. Grimes to accept these books. he
said, for old friendships sake, and if
Mr.. Grimes would go with him TO the
Office of the association on Fourth street
he could get them there. After little
more conversation the two went to the
room on Fourth street. where they
found another man, which Mr.. Grimes
declares was Post, sitting at a desk.
The young man who hadsbrought Mr.
Grimes to the place asked for his books,
and was told that they had become in
jured and that he had better wait until a
new set could be obtained. Then the
lottery scheme was introduced. and,
after a short time. Grimes was induced
to draw a number for "Sidle." He did
so, thinking that he was drawing for a
set of books. AS soon as Mr.. Grimes
had drawn. Kelly gasped and remarked:
"Mr. Grimes, you have drawn the
grand capital prize, $4,000 in cash."
"Sidle" grasped Mr.. Grimes hand

n Complaint from MlnnetOnka--
Two Villages Escape Being
Drawn Into Town.
The county commissioners held their
regular monthly meeting yesterday, and
transacted the following business: 1t
was decided that the bonds of the coun-
ty officers for the coming year should be
as follows: Sheriff, $1,000: register of
deeds. $1,000; auditor, $1,000; judge of
probate, $1,000: treasurer, 100000:
county attorney, $1,000. and surveyor,
$500. The matter of the bonds for
the clerk of court and court
commissioner was laid over until the
enth Day AdventiSts, Maternity hos
pital and E. Lovesetli for abatement of
taxes were allowed. A communication
from l.. 3. Stetson and others, COM
planning of the lowering of Lake Min
netonka, was received and referred to
the county attorney. This communica-
ton states that Harlow A. Gale some
time ago cut hole in the dam across
Minnetonka creek at Minnetonka mills,
and in consequence the water in the lake
has been lowered thirty inches. and
navigation in many parts of the lake
ruined. 1t states that the water in the
lake is now at very low stage and that
if it continues to run through the dam
during the winter, there will be very
few places in the lake next summer
where there will be sufficient water
for the large boats. On petition of
a large number OF residents of
Richfield township. the town divided
into two villages, the west part of the
town being named the village of Edna
and the east part the village of Lyn-
dale. The petitions state that a census
taker short time ago showed that the
WALLACE of Edna contains 4S5
inhabitants, and the village of
Lyndale 403 inhabitants. Dec. 70 is
the time set for tie election of village
officers. The superintendent of the
poor farm submitted a report showing
the receipts for October to be S527.44,
expenditures SS3S.92, and inmates sixty
one. The crop report of the poor farm
showed 1.4O0 bushels of ear corn, 1000
bushels OF potatoes, 1000 bushels of
beetS, turnips and carrots, $50 bushels
OF onions and 1.400 heads of cabbage, all
of which was raised from twcnU-seven
acres Of land.
