The Syndicate Owning the
Minneapolis Grand Buys
Its Competitor.
The Deal Not Yet Closed, but
Will Be in a Few
Days.
$4,000 the Price for the
Property, Clearing All J..
Indebtedness.
1t Will Probably Be Changed
to a Low Priced
Theater.

The Hennepin Avenue theater is as
good as sold to the syndicate which
owns the Grand opera house, but the
deal has not as yet been closed. Nego-
tiations have been pending for some
time with the attorney who acquired an
equity in the theater and secured from
the courts the courts the right to open
it again to the public. The necessary
papers for the transfer of the property
were to be signed Saturday, but as
all details were arranged the matter
is still open, and no payment has been
made. The papers were, however,
signed yesterday by those authorized to
act for the syndicate, and Mr.. Hunt
says he is willing to sign as soon as
everything is in proper shape.
The purchase price is understood to
be $135,OOO, which is fair valuation, as
the building cost $4,000. The indebt-
ednesS against it amounts to $4,000, so
the sale will more than pay all claims.
Possession will not be given until
April l. as Mr.. Hunt has booked attrac-
tons up to that date. The purpose of
the syndicate in buying the theater is
to get a competitor out of the way, OF
course. 1t is said, however, that the
Hennepin is to be kept open, but
whether as hall for musical and local
events, or as loW-price theater. is not
intimated. 1t is certain, however, that
it will not be allowed to compete with
the Grand

PASSED IT OVER.
The Harvey Investigation In

man Resigns

The Harvey Investigation In.
definitely Continued--A PATROL
man Resigns.
The Capt. Harvey investigation seems
to have sunk into innocuous desuetude
once more. The police commission met
yesterday and considered various mat
tiers, but the Harvey trouble. was not
mentioned at all, and not much seems
to have been gained by the public read
ing of hundred or so pages OF evil
dence which the members OF the board
heard orally given.
Among other matters considered yes
terday was communication from Supt::
Bracket recommending the removal OF
the Fifth precinct. mounted, station
from Lake Calhoun to lot now owned
bv the city at Twenty-eighth street and
Blaisdell avenue. The matter was re-
ferred to the committee OH property.
The resignation of officer George
Martens, whose stalwart form has been
familiar figure on the crowded Nicol-
let avenue crossing for some time, was
received and accepted, Officer Martens
has good record on the force, and was
well known and generally liked. He
has bought the Minnesota house, at
First avenue south and First street, and
will hereafter make his daily bread by
feeding other people.
The Investigation of Patrolman AL
bert Gaia was continued, and the case
against Officer McKenna, charged with
using unbecoming language to one
Charles j. Foster, was dismissed.
Commissioner Baker introduced the
following motion, which was carried:
Moved. that the police force of the
city of Minneapolis be constituted, SO
far as practicable, of men selected from
the different nationalities in proportion
to the number of each nationality living
in the city.''
