APPROACHING SETTLEMENT.
The Westphalia Strike About Over
--EmnerOr Williams Latest.

BERLIN, May 16.-A compromise is
being arranged between the miners
and their employers, and it is expected
the men will resume work On Tuesday.
In receiving Westphalia mine owners
to-day. Emperor William made a long
speech, in the course of which he said:
''After hearing both sides, it would
seem that the main point, in view
! of the widespread injury done to
the whole population, and having regard
especially to the probable outbreak of a
second series of strikes in SileSia, is to
end as soon as possible the strikes In
Westphalia- l conveyed my views on
this subject to the workmen with severe
plainness. The wOrkmen have made a
good impression upon me. having held
aloof from all touch with the social
lists. kilograms from Westphalia
announce that my words have found a
favorable hearing. The healthy, pat
riotic feelings shown by the workmen's
delegates inspires me with confidence
that they will do all in their power to
bring their comrades back to work as
soon as possible. urgently advise the
mining companies to maintain hence
forth as close touch as possible
with the wOrkmen. l would ask
that care be taken to give
the workmen chances to formulate their
wishes. Imuch desire to bring the dis
pute to favorable issue. 1t must ever
be borne in mind that companies en-
plOying great numbers of wOrkmen
have duty to perform to the state.
They must use every effort to provide for
the welfare of the men. What above all
must be avoided is the placing of the
population of a whole province IN
such difficulties as have attended the
present strike"
After the audience delegates of the
miners met Herr Hammacher, member
of the Reichstag, who acted as rep
resentative of the mine-owners.
A prolonged conference was held
which resulted in the acceptance OF
basis of settlement. The working
day is to be fixed at eight
hours exclusive of time occupied in de-
scending and ascending the pits; COM
pulsOry over time is to be abolished ex-
cept in cases of extreme urgency, pre-
viOusly arranged for between the mas
tiers and the men, and, finally, wages
are to be increased in accordance with
local circumstances. The directors of the
Weimar cOllieries have called meeting
for Saturday to consider the compromise.
Hundreds of striking miners at Essen
have been sworn in as special officers at
their own request. At Dortmund hun
dreds of the strikers resumed work
to-day without any opposition. Nego-
tiatiOnS between the employers and en-
plOyeS have been begun and the proba-
bilities are that settlement of the diff
ferenceS will soon be reached.

COLUMBUS CENTENNIAL.

Chicago ought to erect brass monu-
ment. This suggestion is made on the
supposition that brass is most typical
of monumental cheek. And if there
ever was display Of cheek 1t is in the
demand made by the Chicago press that
the COLUMBUS centennial, in 1892, shall
be celebrated in that city. What asso-
citation there is between Chicago and
CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS is a mystery
that no one but Chicago man could
unravel. 1t is true that ChicagO'S
streets are lined with Italian organ
grinders, who would serve to remind
the centennial visitors of CHRISTIE
PIERS nationality. COLUMBUS sailed
from Spanish port on his voyage of
discovery, and the bull-pens down
at the Chicago stockyards might
be dimly suggestive of Spain's
favorite sport. But beyond these two
facts we fail to discover anything that
would even remotely connect CHRISTIE
PIER COLUMBUS with the city of Chi
cago, unless it would be that visit to
the Cook county almshouse or insane
asylum would enable the centennial
guests to realize what cruel treatment
the great discoverer suffered in his old
days. Then, as an additional attraction
to the centennial ceremonies. by 1892
visitors would have an opportunity to
hear the closing speeches in tie CAR
TER divorce case.
Still. we are inclined to the opinion
that the eternal fitness of things re-
quires that the COLUMBUS centennial
shall be observed at the national capt.
tai, and that congress ought to be lib
eral in making appropriations for it
with view of making it the grand eli
max of the series of national centen-
mails

CORRIDOR CHAT.

Marshal Met lure, of the DEVILS Lake
Capital, is in the city, and last evening
decanted upon the science of running a
daily paper in North Dakota. Mcclure
should be familiar with the subject, the
Capital being his second venture in that
line. His first was the Alert at James,
town, which he handled successfully
for several years. He branched off into
politics, however, and said that DEVILS
Lake was only anxious for the capital
of the new state, that office-seekers like
81. 9. HansbOrOugh and Mr.. Lord had
would have to take back seat, at
least until this capital question is set
tied. The fact is. said Mcclure, DEVILS
man who wants office. Mr.. Hans
borough has his heart set
upon congress and the peo-
pie of DEVILS Lake have made up their
minds that they do not want to worry
about congressman. The capital is
their first thought, and they will work
for it in preference to all else. AS to
the g0veInorship, George Walsh and
Alfred Dickey are candidates, and either
one would suit the North Dakota
people," Editor Mcclure was surprised
to learn of reported migration of set
tiers from Devils Lake, aud says such
reports were started by representatives
Of other places, who seek to have the
capital in their respective towns.

THE Cherokee Indians are qualifying,
for politicians. They induced their
friends in the senate last winter to de-
feat the SPRINGER bill, opening up their
lands and appointing commission to-
negotiate with them. This commission
is now ready to meet them, and they re-
fuse to appoint representatives to cOns
fer. They are Influenced by the cattle
barOns to whom they rent their lands.
But the dignity of the senate lis
rumpled, and it will no doubt favor
taking the lands without consulting the
Indians. 1t is a matter of short time
when almost the entire Indian territory
will be taken by the whites, and another
state will be asking admission to the

H. WILLARD CHALLENGED.
A Young German Would Like to
Fight the Great Hustler.

ALBANY, N. Y, May 16.-Richard
Boeckh, young German, was arrested
here this afternoon for chal-
longing to duelaHenry Willard,
the well-known financier. A New York
lawyer came up with a detective. and
one of the local police justices issued
slightly built young man, when ar
raigned before the magistrate, frankly
admitted sending the challenge and
also said that he would have shot Viii
lard if he had got the chance. He
smiled all through the proceedings and
conveyed the impression that he was
deranged. The challenge which he
sent to Willard is written in Ger
man, In fine, easily legible hand. A
translation as nearly literal as possible,
is as follows: april 26, 1SS9.-Mr. Vii
lard, New York: Since my last appear
ance in New York, where you saw
me in an invaded condition. after
sickness of several months duration,
considerable time has passed. had
long ago decided to have an accounting
with you, as well as with my father.
Your plan. which you two had con-
cocted against me, has miscarried.
of which am extremely glad. Your
challenge you to duel with pistols, at
such place as may be agreeable to you
lin your Office if you please. 1 give
you three weeks time. At the
end of that time, In case you
should refuse to fight such a
duel, l should advise you to leave
America. for if we should meet the
consequences would be serious to you.
Any distance will be. agreeable to
me, as long as it does not exceed ten
PAGES, for l consider shooting into
nature as nonsense. Will you please,
by return mail, designate the oplace
where we may settle our affairs?-R.
BOLCKH.
P. S.-In case you do not answer my
letter [ shall seek you personally"
BOeckh was committed to Jail to await
the action of the grand jury. He said
he he had a reason for sending the
challenge. but he would not divulge
it. There is a rumOr that
when Willard was in Germany
few years ago he was the guest of
Boeckh's parents, and Boeckhss father
is said to have given Willard SO, 900 to
carry to the young man. This story
does not receive much credence.

COUNTY AGAINST COLLEGE.
Shall Macalester's Broad Lands
BE Taxed or Not?-Cullings of
The Courts

Shall Macalester's Broad Lands
BE Taxed or NOt?-Cullings Of
the Courts.
The case of Ramsey county against
the trustees of MacaIester college was
heard by Judge Villas yesterday. The
action is one to recover $500. alleged to
be due the county for taxes for the year
1886. The college property comprises
forty acres and several buildings. The
trustees claim that the land, being Occu-
pied by educational institutions is
exempt from taxation, according to the
statutes of this state. On the other hand
the county argues that forty acres of
such valuable land, lying in the heart of
the county, and within the limits of
great city, are more than necessary for
college ground, and therefore wants
the question of taxability decided. The
case was submitted to the court in the
afternoon. A decision will be reached
later.
John e. Fritzen sues Fred Berget and
Arthur Hebb to recover 81, 4O7 on promis-
sorry notes and mortgage.

OLSON IS IN LUCK.
In the case of Anton Olson against
Nellie E. and II. A. Stone and j. H.
Mailer company. Judge Villas filed his
decision yesterday. This suit was
begun in September, 1887, and alleged
gross and wrongful fraud on the part of
the defendant, III. A. Stone. Olson is
Scandinavian, and can not read, write
or understand the English language.
nGo f1rA0 n of E.<
was the owner of lot 8, block %, Of
Arlington Hills addition to st. Paul,
which was the value of $4,000. Stone
bargained to purchase the lot
and pay him $1,000 therefor and.
assume mortgage of $1,400
Stone agreed to pay $500 in cash, and
induced Olson to accept mort
gage for the remaining $500 upon prop
ertY in another part of the state. which
he represe nted was worth over 81 900.
Olson believing what Stone represent
ed, accepted the $500 and said mort
gage, and thereupOn executed deed to
stones wife, made defendant herein.
Olson soon learned that he had been de-
frauded, and that the mortgage which
he presumed was upon good and
worth only $40. He there
latter urged Olson to leave the mort
gage with him, stating that he could
sell it for him and secure the cash upon
it. Olson deposited the mortgage with
Stone, and to this day he has not been
in possession of it. Stone refused to
give it up, has never paid Olson any
thing upon it, and has OlsOn's property
-all for $500, which he first paid Olson.
Upon these facts the case went to trial
and the allegations sustained by the
evidence. The court orders that II Oh.
son deposits $500 with the clerk of the
court he shall recover absolute title to
his property and the defendants are
charged with the costs.
