OFFICIALS OF STATE.
The Capitol Outfit Is Unit for
the Carnival.

Gov. Merriam-Yes, 1 want to see a
carnival and ice palace this winter, and
think it would be a good thing for the
city. There seems to be diver slty of
opinion. however. as to the adYisability
of holding a carnival, but l think that
popular demand favors it.
Hon. A. K. Teisberg-Let US have an
ice palace by all means. 1t affords a
winters amusement for our citizens
and also brings hundreds of thousands
of people from all over the continent
into this state. A big boom is thus
given TO our trade. while the natural
advantages of st. Paul in particular is
advertised abroad.
John A. Hughes (Adjutant of the
Acker POst)-I am Indifferent in the
matter. 1t is probably to the interests
of the city 10 have an ice palace, but it
is not to my interests.
DEPUTY Insurance Commissioner
Dearth-l would very much like to see
an ice palace. 1t cannot fail to enhance
the business of the city. AS an adyer
tisement of st. Paul it is unexcelled.
Prof. T. II. Kirk-I favor winter
sports, and also enjoy carnival season.
l think it should be kept up.
Insurance Commissioner Bailey
Have an ice palace, of course. 1t breaks
up the monotony of our long winter and
gives the people chance to have some
fun. 1t is a good thing for the city.
G. ]. HumasOn. of the Adjutant Cen
erals Department-An ice palace? Yes.
sir. That is my opinion to-day, now and
forever. Give the people an opportu-
nifty of having some pleasant recreatlve
amusement, as we'll as provide an adver
tisement to augment the Golfers Of our
city merchants.
Public Examiner Kenyon-The ice
palace is an advertisement of the city,
and, for that alone, say let US have
one.
Capt. Osborne State Bank Examiners
Department)-I am strong supporter
of an ice palace. When we hold a
carnival it advertises the city, and when
we don't hold one it advertiseS the
state. Outside people have practical
illustration of Minnesota weather.
Chief Executive Clerk Angell-An ice
palace? Why. certainly! The strongest
point in its favor is that it advertises
the city.
Private Secretary Elliot city de-
riVes a good deal of benefit, directly
and Indirectly, from an ice palace. The
attraction is so great that people from
all over the continent are drawn into st.
Paul, and no city can afford to throw
away such splendid opportunity for
maiing known its natural residential
and business advantages. Yes; let US
have an ice palace.

JEWS ON THE RAMPAGE.
An Exciting Scene in the Old
Thalia Theater.

NEW YORK, Sept. 2S.-COnsiderable
excitement was created on the Bowery
to-day in front of the Thalia theater,
formerly the Old Bowery. Two weeks
ago Gustave Amberg, who is the lessee
of this theater, sub let it to Kafka &
Co. for term of FIVE years, who were to
play Jewish operas. They gave
performances under Amberg'S Ii
cense, which however, expired
last week. The company kept
on playing pending an application to
the mayor. Shortly after l o'clock to
day, the police were ordered to stop the
performance. A squad was sent to the
theater and entered by the stage en-
trance. The curtain for the first act
had risen on play called David Ben.
Jesse" and Mr.. Kafka, who plays the
part of King Solomon, was sitting ON
the throne. He was notified that the
performance must stop, and he i'm
parted the information to the audience.
A terrible howl went up from fully
1900 people present. They yelled for
their money and rush was made
for the box office, but it was
tightly closed. An indeseribaable
scene followed. Some of the infuriated
mob began tearing the paper OFF of the
walls, while others kept up a continual
shout for the return of their money. A
cry of fire was raised and a number of
women, overcome by fright, tainted.
Finally the police, by the force of their
clubs, drove the mob out and cleared
the theater in a short time. Outside
the mob kept bowling for their money.
Mr.. Amberg attempted to pass through
the crowd and, being recognized. was
assailed with all kinds OF missiles. His
hat was smashed and his coat torn up
the back and if it had not been for the
police he would have been badly hurt,
The police finally cleared the streets.

HAD NARROW ESCAPE.
President ingalls,. of the Big Four,
Arrives at Cleveland.


CLEVELAND, o., Sept. 2s.-There was
a large party at the union depot tonight
to greet and congratulate the Cleveland
passengers who were in the New York
Central railroad collision Friday night.
NJ. E. ingalls,, of Cincinnati, president
of the Big Four road; Mrs.
Ingalls,. Miss ingalls,. Miss Cath
arine Andrews, of Cincinnati; N. r.
Johnson, secretary to Mr.. ingalls,, and
Superintendent Blee, of this city, ar
rived at z O'Clock. They had rather
exciting experience in the collision, but.
with the exception of Mrs. Ingalls,, all
escaped without injury. The party oc-
cupied President Ingalls, private car,
Kankakee, which was the second last
coach of the first train. The last
was private car of President
Ledyard, of the Michigan Cen
tral, whose home is in Detroit:
The berths in the Kankakee extend
across the ear. When asked about the
accident President ingalls, said that he
was asleep with his back toward the
was, of course, severely shaken, but
sustained no bad effects from the ex-
perience. Mr.. johnson was thrown
from his berth nearly across the
ear, but he also escaped unhurt.
Mrs. Ingalls, was thrown from her
berth and painfully injured. She was
still suffering from her bruises this
evening, but was able to walk with as
sistance. Charles Franklin, the colored
porter of the Kankakee. was in the
front end of the car, and met his death
in the collision. President Ingalls, was
of the belief that the second section of
the train must have been running at
least forty miles per hour. Asked about
the air brakes he said:
."Yhen any one tells you that the air-brakes
would not work, don't you believe him. The
fact of the matter was. in all probability. that
the engineer OF the second section did not
see the first section until his train swept
around a curve 500 feet away, and it was
then too late to stop the train.''
Superintendent Blee said that the
force of the collision knocked the first
train fully 100 feet along the track.
The cars were not telescoped, properly
speaking. The Kankakee was forced
part way into the coach ahead, but one
side of the Kankakee was inside and
the other outside the CAR.

SHE CAN AFFORD 1T.

really too bad if our annual winter cele-
bratiOn should not materialiZe. 1t has
helped the city, in my estimation, to a
wonderful extent. Why, we are known
all over the world as the Carnival
City," l heard great many people in
Europe during my last visit there speak
about the st. Paul ice palace, and wish
they could attend it.
Sheriff E. S. Bean-The value of hold
ing the carnival here is incalculable. 1t
brings thousands of strangers with
thousands of dollars into the city. l
think the money in circulation here
during the months the preparations are
going on and the holding of the carni-
val itself amounts to great many
hundreds of thousands of dollars. We
can't afford to let it pass this season
any more than before.
County Commissioner Boyd-There
are people all over this country of ours
who would never have heard of st. Paul
had it not been for the carnival. Now
as soon as winter approaches they are
all talking about it. 1t is to our city
every year what the world fair will be
in 1892 to which ever city gets it. At
least that is my opinion.
County Treasurer NelSOn-1 concur
with the remarks and sentiments of the
other gentlemen who have given favor
able interviews. l want to see the car
nival next year.
County Commissioner Lavalle--I
think the lee carnival is good thing.
and helps the city in a great many
ways.

clare for the Carnival.
President Dawson, of the Mime
sofa Bank-I undoubtedly favor the
holding of carnival. I think it will
keep things moving and bring crowds
of people to the city, which will GER
tainly be to the city's advantage. Yes,
l think there can be no doubt that st.
Paul ought to have an ice palace and
carnival this winter, and for my part l
want to see it go.
81. p. Upham, President of the First
National Bank-Certainly / favor the
holding of palace and carnival. 1
have never seen either, but my under
standing is that the effect of holding a
carnival will be to bring crowds of Wis
itors TO the city, therefore favor the
carnival.
President Willius, of the National Ger
man-American Bank-My opinion on
this matter is that ST. Paul has derived
all the benefits it will derive for several
years from its winter carnival idea. My
plan would be to wait a couple of years,
and the thing would then have renewed
interest.
D. A. Monfort, of the Second National
Bank-I All certainly in favor of hold
ing carnival if there is any prospect
that it can be made success. My i'm
pIcSSIOuS are tHdt ocFcIdl years PAUSE
will renew the interest in the winter
carnival festivities, and that an ice
palace built two or three winters from
now would be almost as great a novelty
aud consequently as great success as
was the first one. However, want the
majority to rule every time, and if the
managers think it can be made sue

LIE CLoCHE sWoRE FALSELY.
CompuIsion From High Railroad
Officials Causes a Fireman to
PeriuPe Himself

CHICAGO. Sept. 2s.-The coroner's
jury investigating the Washington
Heights accident concluded its work to-
day by holding Twombly, the engineer.
and LIE Cloche, the fireman of the freight
engine, responsible for the accident.
The crownIng features of the in
veStigation was the confession of
Fireman LIE Cloche, made after
the Verdict was brought in, and
in which he admitted that his
testimony was false. and that TwOmbly
was drunk the night of the accident.
Division Superintendent Chamberlain
testified that he mad nothing to do with
the discharging of engineers; he could
only recommend. He had taken TwOm-
bly, off his engine at least three times
for being drunk. The last time was
about a year ago, after which Twombly
was discharged. He was re-emDlOyed
by his father, the master mechanic. So
far as Mr.. Chamberlain knew, Twombly
was the only engineer discharged for
drunkenness who was reinstated. He
did not know why the exception
was made in Twombly's case.
The witness said he blamed
the conductor anu the engineer of
the freight train. The former .should
not have permitted the train to get
ahead of time and the latter ought to
have seen the semaphore. LeC1oche
broke down completely and cried like a
child when he confessed that he had
periured himself. He intimated that
compulsion from high railroad officials,
who were anxious to shield TWombly.
had prompted him to lie. His situation
is p itiful one. In view of his confess
sion tonight and the testimony he will
probably give before the grand jury, he
can scarcely escape an Indictment for
perjury committed at the inquest and,
if he escapes term of Imprisonment, he
hope of employ ment.

as a boy just after long vacation. His
European tour has worked marvels for
him physically, and the welcome he re-
ceived from his friends last night must
have filled to the bTim the cup of
happiness which that man drinks,
who is drawn back by the recuperative
forces of nature from disease and in
valadism to pristine health and
strength. DR.. Ames left Chicago Fri
dav night and travelled straight through
to St. Paul in sleeping car, arriving
there at 1:30 o'clock p. m. yesterday.
Many friends came on board the train
to greet him and the doctor chatted gaily
with all of them, the burden of his
conversation being his pleasure at get
ting home again. In short time the
party departed for the soldiers home in
carriages, arriving there after de-
hghtful half hours drive through the
beautiful region about Fort Smelling
and tine state park. At the soldiers
home the veterans had the honor of
rendering their resident physician the
first formal reception that has
been given him since his re-
turn to Minneapolis. The doctor
was accompanied by Dr.. J. II. Murphy,
William p. Murray, of st. Paul; Hon.
f. ", Durant, of Saltwater; C. NJ.
FOote. H. Il. Malloy and George W.
Cooley, of the Minneapolis committee,
and on his arrival at the home at about
D. m. the carriages drew up in front
of the administration cottage. Across
the roadway in front of the cottage a
banner with the word Welcome" in
scribed was stretched, and this was the
first thing that greeted the arriving
party. The fiag of the institution was
dipped i'm regulation style, and three
rousing cheers were given by the vet
Grams drawn up along the driveway.
The reception was complete surprise
to Dr.. Ames. but not more so than to
find himself as soon as he left the
carriage in the arms of his family,
all of whom were supposed to be await
ing him in the city. Capt. Mcmillan
after the handShaking that ensued was
over, entertained DR.. Ames and his
family at dinner. Then the party adj
journed to the audience room. where
Capt. Mcmillan. on behalf of the veter-
ans, made an address ofwelcOme to which
Dr.Ames responded warmly. An original
ode Welcome" was sung, followed by
some instrumental music. Last of all
the doctor was given a stirring drum
and fife salute. after which the party re-
entered their carriages and were driven

That st. Paul should have winter
carnival this coming season is the con-
sensus of opinion drawn from all valua-
bic sources in the city. The exceptions
to the universal sentiment are so few as
to be stamped eonspicuously at once.
1t may be written down as the gener-
orally expressed view of the solid men
of st. Paul that the carnival of 1890
should be made memorable by display
of old-time enthusiasm. There is but
one variance of opinion, and that is

managers are in a sense thrown upon
their own resources. In this emer-

men interviewed favor public sub

upon the city treasury. Some interest

Officials of Ramsey Express Their
Wish for the Festivities.
Judge Egan, county attorney-We
l should say so! We want the ice pal
ace; in fact, we must have it. The pal
ace and carnival is the only thing we
have here to enliven otherwise dull
winters, and to bring people to town. l
should be very sorry il the thing fell
through this year.
County Auditor Kahn The winter
carnival has now become almost a ne
cessity. 1t brings people and money
into the city and helps to advertise US.
To cease holding it now for the want of
necessary funds would hurt the city very
much, as, fgurativeIy speaking. during
the winter time, the eyes of the whole
country are upon us. l hope it will go
through, by all means.
Judge Morrison-The ice palace and
winter carnival fills in a void in our
winters, which are always dull and dis
agreeable. The weather is cold and
there is nothing to enliven business.
The carnival makes it a pleasure to
have cold weather. brings money to the
purses of the merchants and gives the
city itself pleasant and wholesome
nOtOriety.
