was mere child, a slender Polish girl with
a shawl over her head and her big eyes
swimming with tears. She had a young Lad
with her as Interpreter, but she was too
much excited to wait for him, and she flew
from one chair to the other, wringing her
hands and chatteEing like magpie. Mrs.
Webb happened q eEcmber the little ons
on the bed with the( Earrings in her ears, and
inquiringly touched her own ears as ques-
ton. The little mother flew 30 the conner,
and in moment was staggering about with
her big girl in the arms that ought still to be
tending dolls. She kissed and cried over her
baby for five minutes before she could make
up her mind to leave off and go home.-

Judge Atwater-lt will be hard to get

the death of Robert Hale. He was one
man in thousand. and | am sorry we

Peter Thielen-About four dozen men
have come into my store to-day just to
ask me if the failure of Van Strum &
Lundberg had also closed my place up,
as the morning papers said.
G. NJ. FOote-I see that two-cent
evening paper says, "Since the proposed
Democratic rally at the Peoples theater
is regarded as boom for Ames, sub
scriptions are not as large as they were"
This is getting lying down to fine
point when it only takes twenty
three words to tell two good
sized whoppers. In the first place,
the meeting is not regarded as a boom
for Ames, but is simply for the purpose
of ratifying the nomination of Cleve-
land and Thurman and the Democratic
platform, something that will be recog-
niZed as eminently proper at this time.
In the second place subscriptions have
been liberal enough, it would seem, as
we raised all the money we need for eX-
penses inside of sixty minutes.

MINNEAPOLIS WOMEN.
Expressions Concerning Cleveland
and Harrison.

Minneapolis Special to the New York World.
There seems to be as great diversity
of opinion among the women in this city
tonight as to their choice betweenC leve-
land and Thurman and Harrison and
Morton as among the sterner sex. The
World correspondent called upon sew
eral prominent Minneapolis ladies who
have gained prominence by their own
eXertiOn in beneficent, temperance and
religious work. Two of the ladies in
terviewed are woman suffragists.
DIR. Martha Ripley said: II certainly
am not in favor of the reelection of
Cleveland. If could vote and had to
choose between Cleveland and Harrison
would cast my ballot for Harrison"
Mrs. Frank j. Mead said: 81 am for
Harrison. now that he is the nominee of
the Republican party, first, last and all
the time. If could vote | would not
vote for Cleveland under any considera-
ton"
Mrs. A. A. Ames said: "My husband
has always been Democrat, but in pol
tiles have not always agreed with him.
To put it frankly, have always had a
leaning towards Republicanism. But
as between Cleveland and Harrison [
am for Cleveland. One reason is that

opponents, and another is that 1 am a
great admirer of Mrs. Cleveland"
Mrs. j. p. Rea said: ''My choice is
Harrison. / am native of Ohio. Har-
rison was born in Ohio and that is one
great reason why l am for Harrison"
Mrs. A. Cornman said: eff / could

don't mind telling you that L am Dem
ocrat and always have been since l have
been old enough to take an interest in
politics."
Mrs. E. S. NJ. Marble said: "Until

Republican. have never been a be-
lever in third party movement. Now
that the Republican and Democratic
parties have utterly ignored the anti

Mrs. E. A. Russell said: "My choice

ALL SORTS.

The kind of base ball SO touchingly
referred to by Rev. 'Golightly Morrill, as
calculated to make hell roar and the
angels weep" was that seen in the last
inning yesterday.
Rev. Sam Small is of opinion Presi-
dent Cleveland will be reelected and
the Republican party go to pieces, the
Prohibitionists taking the best pieces.
Monday will be much better day for
the Republican meeting than Saturday,
as it is wash day, and they will be
moved by memories of the Chinese and
their laundrieS.
Colored men are lucky in the district
court. A negro who assaults white
man with razor, gets forty-five days in
Jail, while a white man, who merely
uses a stone, gets two years in states
prison. The presumption is that the
white man should have known better.
The Republican demonstration Mon
day night can very appropriately be
styled a ratification meeting.
People interested in real estate trans
actions must enjoy the policy of Regis
ter of Deeds Peterson in suppressing
the publication of many important
transfers. Yesterday, for instance, the
twenty-three deeds given out for publ
cation amounted to 1900, and the five
suppressed deeds to S172,375.

HEART DISEASE.

mantS

The Cause of Robert Hale'S Sud-
den Death Funeral Arrange
ments.
An autopsy was held Oh the body of
Robert Hale. at Warmers morgue,
Thursday afternoon, when it was found
that four ribs were broken, as result
of fall down the elevator well at the
Nicollet house. An inquest was held,
also, yesterday morning, and verdict
returned to the effect that Mr.. Hale's
death was due to heart disease, posi-
bly, fastened by the fall at the Nicollet
house. The proprietor and the en-
plOyes of the hotel were 4 exonerated
from all blame for the accident. DR..
q, III. Hunter, who made the post
mortem examination, testified that the
diseased condition of theE heart and
other organs was such as to cause
immediate death at any time. He
thought possibly the shock resulting
from the fall might have hurried the
death, but the injuries received alone
could not have caused death. The
funeral exercises were held at the
family residence last evening, Rev. II.
NJ. Simmons officiating.
The board of trade held a we'll
attended meeting yesterday morning to
take action on the death of Robert
Hale, the secretary. Col. King. Judge
Atwater and Capt. Merriman were ap-
pointed committee to draw up resolu-
tons. which will be presented at the
meeting Monday. 1t was decided to
have all the members of the board
meet at the rooms tomorrow at $50
%. m, form in line there, and accom-
pany the body to the train.

The Exports of Breadstuffs Liable

to Be ThrOttled.
In the meeting of the chamber of COM
merce yesterday morning the following
self-eXplanatory communication was
sent in by member:
We have learned that the various COM
mercial organizations in the eastern sea-
board cities have been asking the inter
state commission to make a ruling which
will require the rates of freight to be paid on
the products in which we are interested
when shipped for export from interior
points in the United States to
foreign ports, to be on the basis of
the same charge per ton per mile
from the point of shipment to the seaboard
as are paid upon property consigned to sea-
board points. We are satisfied that such an
action would work serious injury to all in
terror cities; that an export rate should be
maintained that should not be subject to all
the local freight charges between interven-
ing points. All industries of the country are
benefited by the export of breadstuffs. and
they should be encouraged instead OF being
throttled.''

mulgated by the st. Louis convention.
They do not propose to ratify. Nothing
with rats about it goes with the Demo
Gratis this year. The rats and Chinese
are the Republicans own from this
time forward. The meeting on Tuesday
will be for the purpose of firing the first
gun of the campaign. and firing the
public heart at the same time. Those
Republicans who desire to hear just
how the Republicans of Minnesota were
slapped in the face by the Republicans
at Chicago on the tariff question should
present themselves. Those who believe
in high taxes, protected mOnOpolies, i'm
ported labor and free whisky will not
attend.
Mayor Ames, Hon. E. M. Wilson.
Senator Durant, Hon. A. L. Ankeny
and other prominent Democrats are eX-
pected to speak. They are all well
posted OH public matters, from how the
protection" theory piles on the taxes
in Minnesota Oh everything we buy
down to Harrison'S various votes in
favor of admitting Chinese. This meet
ing is in the interest of no mans candi-
dacy and is solely Tor the general IN
formation and enthusiasm of the people.

THE PENCE OPERA,
Redecorated and Remodeled,W Will
Open To-Day with Faust"

Frederick Book, the energetic man
ager, has taken the lease of the Pence
opera house again and opens it tonight
with grand production of Goethe's
Faust" The Irving version will be
used. and as six weeks preparation has
been had in mounting the piece, a most
perfect production is promised. The
scenery and mechanical effects will be
superb, and the dramatic stock company,
engaged for the season, as strong as
ever put in city theater; it includes
Mr.. Book, Miss Jessaline Rogers, Edwin
Barbour, Neill Scully and others. The
latest successes will be put on in rapid
succession, and popular prices will pre-
vail. Over $1,000 have been spent in re-
furnishing and redecorating the theater
and the auditorium is as pretty as any
of its sisters. 1t can be justly termed
the ''parlor theater." Faust" will run
the week, with two matinees, Wednes-
day and SATURDAY..

CURRENT COMMENT.

Business has Dever been so bad,
throughout a spring season in Minneap-
oils, as during the past three or four
months. and no one can account for the
dullness either. Just now it is improv-
ing and the outlook is good enough, but
the failure crop is now piling up III
alarming shape. Three came in yester-
day, and the little fellows are being
squeezed to the wall. Poor collection
is advanced. very generally, as the
cause: nobody seems overburdened with
money, 1t the crops are good, as they
now promise, business affairs will
brighten up wonderfully.

This morning Judge Lochren will
hear the argument and decide whether
Manager Gooding is in contempt of
court for playing ball last Sunday week.
1t seems generally conceded that the
case will be dismissed, and the
plaintiffs themselves seem to think
SO. as they are casting about
them to procure material for
new action. There has been a COM
plete revolution of public sentiment on
this question since the labor people
have taken a hand, and it is doubtful if,

THE ROBINSON INQUEST.
The Fact Established That He Is
Dead--Weiss' Condition.


The inquest over the body of Silas
Robinson, the murderer and suicide,
who died at the city hospital at 900
Thursday evening, was held at Gleason
& Byorum's morgue yesterday after
noon. The first witness was sister of
the dead man who identified the body.
She knew nothing, however, of his do
nestle troubles. Officers Harmon g.
Day were sworn, and told how Robin
son had said to them that he had done
the shooting, and was glad of it. When
Robinson was found lying in the back
yard after the shooting, and the police
started to put something under his head,
he objected, and asked the men to
break his head with billy, as he
wanted to die. The jury was out but a
short time, and returned a verdict that
the deceased came to his death from
wounds inflicted by himself with re-
volver, with suicidal intent.
Weiss, the man shot by Robinson, is
still alive and getting stronger all the
time. The bullet has not yet been To-
Gated, and nothing will be done toward
finding it until it is certain that he will
recover.
