SENSATIONAL CHARGES.
H1-Treatment Charged in the Case
of Henry Ryan.

The death of Henry Ryan at the pest
house yesterday morning has created
any amount of talk, and a number of
serious charges are made by persons
who claim to know whereof they speak.
Ryan was found at the Chicago house, on
Second street north, one Sunday morn
ing and under direction of the board of
health was removed to the pest house.
The persons who are now causing
rumorS of all kinds to go floating about
the city charge openly that Ryan was
sent to the pest house in an open sleigh
without sufficient covering, and that the
sleigh was tipped over several times
and Ryan spilled out in the snow.
The man who drove Ryane out to the
pest house was in st. Paul yesterday,
and so could not be seen, but it was
learned at the barn where he is en-
plOyed that he made the statement that
the sleigh did tip over once, but Ryan
did not fall out. The men at the barn
deny that the covering was insufficient.
Health Officer Kilvington. in speaking
of the matter, said that Ryan was taken
out in an open sleigh, and he considered
this the best thing that could have been
done. "Why" said he, ''even if we had
wanted to take the man out in hack
we could not have done it, for no hack
man in the city would allow his hack to
be used for such a purpose, as the up
hOlstering would all have to be
torn out. Again, hack would
have been too warm, wrapped up
as Ryan was, and the windows could
not have been lowered, as this would
have created draft, which above all
things should be avoided in smallpox.
So, even if it we're not best to use an
open sleigh, it is all that could have
been done under the circumstances. In
regard to the mans not being wrapped
up. all L have to say is that he was as
warm as we could make him, and did
not suffer. He lay on a mattress and
was covered by seven blankets and
layer of straw. The cold did not reach
him. have heard nothing about his
being dumped into the snow several
times on the way to the hospital. and
pronounce that statement false and

On the Tapis---Social News Cen
orally.
"Coming events cast their shadows
before,'' and so it is on the tapis to say
something of the two big public balls
that will come off in the near future.
The most elaborate by far will be the
conductors ball to be held in the West
hotel Feb. 9. The tickets will cost s.
each, the invitations and SOU
venirs are already issued and
are extremely pretty. 1t is
the fourth annual ball of Minneapolis
Division No. 1T, Order of Railway Con-
ductors, and promises to be a grand
success.
The police ball will occur on the 18th
in Harmonic hall. This social affair
always becomes a popular crush. and
expectations for glorious old time are
/ already beginning to thrOb meath the
blue coats of the gallant cops.
Mrs. w. ID. WaShburn intends shortly
giving an entertainment that will be
one OF the social events of this season.
The German club intends having a
dance Monday evening, the 9th inst.
Miss Annie Flannery will give a
dance to her many friends at Malcolm
hall Monday evening next.
The german given by Miss McNair,
Wednesday evening. at her residence,
Linden avenue, was largely attended
and quite brilliant affair. Danz's Or
chestra furnished the music, Doener
served the refreshments, and the whole
affair was highly successful.

THE STEAMBOAT SCHEME
Presented by Capt. Davis to a
Board of Trade Gathering,

At the meeting held yesterday after
noon of the board of trade there was
quite an enthusiasm worked up Oh the
subject of having line of packet boats
on the river between here direct and st.
Louis. Capt. Reno was present and en-
thuSiaStic memories cOurSed through
his brains of the time when he too was
in the footing steamboat business"
consequently he was booming things
along in great shape. }. T. Wyman
presided, and opened proceedings by
introducing Capt. John T. Davis in a
few complimentary words. Capt. Davis
explained his presence by saying he
came among them to make plain bust
ness proposition; that neither he nor
those with him were looking for
any subsidy, and the whole long
and short of the facts in
the case were as follows: 1t was pro-
posed to run steamer from this city to
st. Louis on round trip, which would
occupy. when the river was favorable,
a weeks time: if not favorable, about
eight or ten days. The. cost of such a
boat would be $4,000. and the idea was
that while lie Davis and Mr.. Deere, of
Moline, H., would take half the stock
the rest would be subscribed by citizens
OF the city, who have the best interests
of Minneapolis at heart. La every re-
spect it would he doomed as local en-
terprlse. one inducement hung out be-
ing the steamer should be named for
Minneapolis. The scheme was per-
fectly feasible, but would have to
include an expense, as figured out
BY Maj. Allen, of Sl60.Oee, 10 get the

river in proper condition. The cost of
insurance would be at the rate of 10per
cent, which he the speaker) considered
excessive and deprecated the necessity
of, because the mechanical cOntrivanceS
were so perfected nowadays that it
was quite easy to raise vessel if it did
sink, and the danger of fire was reduced
to minimum. In the winter the boat
could be put on between st. Louis and
New Orleans, and he felt perfectly GER
tain OF the financial success of the
scheme. Although not quite as import
ant as the opening of the 500 road, he
was willing to believe that the begin
ming of such a plan for the accommoda-
ton of traffic, either passenger or freight,
was movement in which Minneapolis
people, with their acknowledged love of
enterprise and get-up, would be sure to
take some interest in. The remarks of
Capt. Davis were very well received by
all present, and it was resolved to lay
the whole matter for final decision
before the meeting of the next board,
which will be held Monday morning.

PLACE.
1887.
1885,.
Total ! $50 526 600 ? AL go 557

The stocks of shingles at the same
date appear to have aggregated 49,
977 500, in 1887, against 560.626, 900 in
1886. In reviewing these figures the
Lumberman says;
1.-THE figures show, as will be seen by
the summary, that the cut of lumber
did not vary much in 1887 in the terri
tory covered by the Lumberman'S re-
view from what it was in 1886. In 1887
the mills turned out 2,7O0, 1872, 121 feet.
and in 1887 2,760, AL, 9S7, an increase of
about 10000, 600. About Is, DOC, 900 more
shingles were made. The falling off in
the production above Minneapolis, at
minneapolis and down the Mississippi
valley and in the Chippewa valley was
more than made up in the ST.. CrOix
valley, at La Crosse, in the Duluth dis
trict and at the railroad mills. The
railroad mills were given an, OppOr-
tunity, and, when the river mills were
waiting for logs III the spring, they were
busy turning out lumber as they had
not in previous seasons. Much Of this
was bill stuff and ran rapidly into fig
ureS. -
When the matter Of stock is reached
the situation somewhat changes. The
figures show that there was in pile Dec.
l, in the, territory covered by, this re-
view, 1,5S0,626,S22 feet, whereas a year
ago at this time there was but 1851 $40, :
557 feet, an apparent excess for 1887 of
1884, 255 feet. But as has already been
explained in the earlier part of this re-
view, account is taken of 155, OO0, 900 feet
of lumber in wholesale yards along the
middle Mississippi, of which no account
has been taken in preceding years. In
stead of there being an increase, there
fore, of approximately 100000 600 feet in
stock, there is decrease of fully 1877
100000 feet. Making allowance for
this heretofore uncounted stock along
the middle Mississippi, the only quar-
ter in which there is an increase
in the stock of lumber in pile over last
year is along the Missippi river, at La
Crosse, in the Ashland district and
along the 500 road, where there has
been practically new market built up
within the year. The greatest inroads
have been made into the stocks of lum-
Der along the Omaha and Wisconsin
Central roads in Wisconsin-and this
feature is particularly marked, since at
the mills on the railroads where this
shortage of lumber exists there was the
greatest propOrtiOnate increase in the
production.
Coming down to shingles, it is found
that even after taking cOgnizance of
100000 of shingles of which no ac-
count has been made in previous years,
there is shortage of shingles amount
ing to fully 70,0O0,000. Figures received
in this office indicate further that there is
almost as marked shortage in the sup
ply of lath. The more the figures are
studied, the more it becomes evident
that in the Northwest particularly the
stocks of lumber, lath and shingles are
exceedingly light-lighter than they
have been In great many years.

migration.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 2.-Dennis Kear-
ney, of San Francisco, talked to the
house committee on foreign affairs an
hour this morning in support of the
Cummings bill prohibiting Chinese i'm
migration. He declared that there
would be nothing for the $4,000 children
in the San Francisco schools to do if
something was not done to stop the flow
of Chinese, as no white person will learn
a trade followed by Chinaman. Mr..
Kearney displayed a map of Chinatown,
in the heart of San Francisco, and pic
tured the manner in which the inhab-
itants of that quarter lived. He said
that in nine blocks in Chinatown there
were siXty-seven houses of prostitution,
$50 gambling dens and opium resorts
innumerable. During his argument
Mr.. Kearney became very earnest in
his denunciatlonS of the Chinese, and
almost violent against those who OPP
posed absolute prohibition of Chinese
immigration.

joint committee, called meeting of the
William Penn miners last night, when
it was found that they had resolved to

towns, who work there, were met and
driven back this morning, but precau-
tions to protect them in the future have
been taken. The colliery shipped over
