taph-Ihe Steel Arch Bridge.
Under the head of unfinished bust
ness the communication received from
the police commission at the last meet
ing of the council, stating that the COM
mission had accepted the bid of the
Municipal Signal Company of Boston
for erecting sixty signal boxes i'm this
city at a cost of $l7,5O0. was read by
Clerk Haney. There was no discussion
of the matter whatever, as Aid. Potter
cut short any attempt at OratOry by
moving that the whole matter be in
definitely postponed. This motion was
carried unanimously. This action was
due TO an understanding had between
Mayor Babb and some of the aldermen.
The city comptroller declared That even
should the council order the city officials
to execute the contract he would refuse
to cOuntersign it until there were avail
able funds in the treasury to pay for
the work. The council had set aside
$4,000 TO improve the police patrol sys-
tenn, but at the present time the money
is not available for the purpose.
The question of building the steel
arch bridge came up in a report from
City Engineer Rinker, who made de-
tailed report of the bid received from
the different bridge companies for do
ing the work. The report was referred
to the committee on roads and bridges
for investigation.
When an ordinance changing the
grrde at the intersection of First avenue
south and Grant street was read. Aid.
Downs expressed his surprise that the
committee on street grades and addi-
tons, who had reported the ordinance,
had not consulted the aldermen of the
Fourth and Fifth wards before the re-
port had been made. The grade at this
point will have to be lowered about four
feet and the change is for the benefit of
the proposed cable line. Aid. Down
and Potter both said they would have
no objection to the change of grade,
provided the property owners didn't Oh
ject, anu the expense was born by the
railroad company. AT the present time
neither the Fourth nor Fifth wards had
any money in the ward treasures which
could be utilized for that purpose. The
ordinance was finally referred to the
committee on street grades and addi-
tiOns. and the aldermen of the Fourth
and Fifth wards.

Aid. BarrOws and the Health
Commissioner Have q Set-To.
Aid. Barrows and Health Officer Kill
vington got into little row over the
disposition to be made of animals
which die inside the city limits. The
committee on health and hospitals re-
ported that they had avertised for bids
for the removal of dead animals. Their
specifications provided that the work at
all times should be under the direction
of the health officer, and that all such
animals should be removed at least two
miles beyond the city limits. The COM
mittee had received two bids for
doing the work. One was from the
Peoples Sanitary company for S4,400.
and the other was from the Northwest
ern Scavenger company, who agree to
do the work for $500. The committee
recommended that the contract be
awarded to the lowest bidder. Aid.
Barrows said that heretofore the owners
of dead animals had to pay for their re-
moval, and he couldn't understand how
it was that the city was to assume this
cost now. DR.. Kilvington said that
since the crematory had been abolished
the animals had to be hauled eight
miles from the city before they could be
disposed of, and he declared that the
city would have to come back to the
crematOry again. Mr.. Barrows said he
didn't think so. The people who owned
the animals had always paid for their
removal, and no matter whether they
were hauled one mile OF ten they had to
put up their money. Or. Kilvington ex-
planned that the department of health
had ordered the destruction of a num-
Der of horses afflicted with contagious
diseases, and it was for the removal of
such animals that the contract was pro-
posed. The $4,000 was to pay only the
city's share, but the man who owned
a horse or animal that died would be
required to pay the scavenger for its re-
mOval, provided he were able to do so.
THAT is just what was done BEFORE"
exclaimed Aid. Barrows. sarcastically.
THAT money went direct to the scav-
enger," retorted the health officer, land
if you, or any one else, can prove that
the money so paid came to me or to the
health department, / will forfeit my
bond" After considerable wrangling
the contract was awarded to the North
western Scavenger company for 1880.

POLITICAL POTHER.

A country paper says that "the last
legislature was the equal of any of its
predecessors in intelligence and integ-
rity." There is no doubt of it. They
have all been Republican by large ma
joritieS.
''rhe only Republican morning daily
In the Twin Cities" urges the Minnesota
members of the house to vote for MIR.
Reed, the protection candidate for
speaker. The indications are that the
Injunction will not be needed save by
Messrs. Snider and Hall. The others
show a decided inclination to support
Mr.. Cannon. 1t is pretty good guess
however, that Congressman Comstock
will eventually range himself on the
side of the apostle of protection from
Maine. Mr.. COmstock is protectionist
at heart and nothing but wholesome
fear of the tariff reform sentiment in
the Fifth district will prevent him from
so doing.
Congressman Snider announces Off.
cially that he is not candidate for gov
ernOr, but is, and always has been, a
friend of Gov. Merriam. He says, also.
that the question as to his candidacy
for reelection to congress must remain
in allegiance until he finds out how
much Of q bowling success he makes
this winter at Washington.

". II. Kliver, one Of the vice presi-
dents of the National Carpenters and
JOiners' Brotherhood and a travelling
organizer Of that body, addressed a
large body of wOrkingmen in the Labor
Temple last night. Mr.. Kliver told of
the progress of the eight-hour move
ment all over the country, and showed
the vast amount of good the Organi-
cation Of labor had done in cor
recting the abuses to which
the workingmen had in times
past been subjected. In speaking of
the city of St. Louis he said that there
was not single carpenter working in
that city for less than $3.50 per day.
Out of the thousands of men employed
as carpenters and iOiners only forty of
them worked nine hours day and the
others eight hours. Not man worked
ten hours, although the bosses had Of
fered as high as 1914 per week for fifty
five hours work. In speaking of
strengthening the organizations, he
said: "Each Of you know one man
who is outside Of your organization.
He is not your enemy because he does
not belong to your organization. Make
him your especial friend, work on that
man with all your powers OF persuasion
and make it your duty to get him in
side the gates. If each of you will do
this there is no doubt of the success of
any movement you NAV undertake."
MIR. Kliver goes to Milwaukee to-day
and from there he will visit the cities of
the Eastern states. He expects to speak
again in st. Paul and Minneapolis some
time in February next.

Details OF the Great Mill Sale
Narrowing to q Certainty. "a


There seems to no longer be any
doubt that the Pillsbury A. b and G
mills. together with the Palisade mill
In Minneapolis, the Lincoln mill at An
Okla, the East and West side water pow
ers and the Pillsbury elevator and a
controlling interest In the Allan
tic elevator at Minneapolis, and the
Minneapolis Il Northern line of eles
vators on the Manitoba road, have been
sold to combination of English and
American capitalists and will hereafter
be operated by them under the name OF
the Pillsbury and Washburn Flour
Mills company, limited, with capital
stock of Ss,0O0,0OO. of which large
block IS held by the Pillsburys, and
of 'wblch G. A. Pillsbury will be
the manager. These mills have Ca
pacity of about Il, Zoo barrels per day
when run up to their limit, and make
the new concern by far the largest
manufacturers of flour in the world.
The Palisade and Lincoln mills repre-
sent Senator Washburn's share in the
deal, and it is possible that he may also
have quite holding of stock In the new
concern. It is understood that the new
arrangement went into effect yesterday.
1t is said that the Assets State Debent-
ure Company of London holds an OPP
ton on the C. C. Washburn mills at
800, 900, which includes the Washburn
A. b and G mills in Minneapolis, which
expires Dec. Is, and that they will be
sold also. These mills are now under
lease to the Washburn-CrOsby COM
pany, with which Senator Washburn
had no connection. The lease expires
Sept. l. 1850. These mills were origi-
nally included in the zeal just closed,
but at the expiration of the first option
given the owners withdrew them and
afterwards gave a new option which eX-
pireS as stated.
c. A. Pillsbury still refuses to affirm
or deny any of the rum0rS in regard to
the sale, but all of the indications point
to the conclusion that the deal is practi-
cally closed and that all that remains TO
be done are mere fOrmalitieS.
The fact that G. A. PillSbury remains
III control as manager is an assurance
that there will be no great change in
the policy of the business.
The feeling among Minneapolis bust
ness men is unanimous 10 the effect
that the sale will he beneficial to the
best interests of the city, from the fact
that it will release a large amount of
local capital for investment in other di-
rectiOns.

THE COLON CASE.

II is quite evident that the defense
regards COllOm's alleged confession as
the weak point in its armOr, and hence
1t will spare no efforts to repair the
breach 10y attempting to show that 1t
was not true. but was made in a mo-
ment of weakness and under an extra
ordinary pressure of circumstances.
The line of defense which it has adopt
ed on this point is an ingenious one, TO
say the least.
Judge Koon, In his opening, made
furious onslaught on expert testimony
and apOlogized for the fact that the de-
Tense would produce some also oy say
Ing that the example of the state In TINS
respect forced them TO DO II.

will be ala interesting feature OF the
case. The state is preparing 10 put nm
through q terrific crOSS-eXamlnatlOn
He will probably have as long and as hot
a siege ON the stand as did Uncle BlalS-
dell. -,
Mir. lockwood, Collom's partner, will
be an important witness for the defense.
He will testify as 10 Mr.. BiaisdeIFS ne
uuent visits TO their Office and TO his
habit of indOrSing notes for COLON
whenever the latter requested him to
do so. =.
Mr.. Carvalho, the leading expert for
the defense, remarked to the reporters
of the evening papers yesterday that If
they intended to print his phiZ he did
not want any 'cattaii' pictures, and
would furnish photographs. The offer
was thankfully accepted. =.
The state occupied nine and a half
days in putting in the case. The de-
fenSe will probably occupy nearly as
much time. and then will come the EVIL
dence in retuttal. 1t is not likely that
the case will be finished next week.
1t is understood that Mr.. Wellington
will sum ND for the state and Mr.. VIII

Thirty-fOur members of the city
council were present yesterday after
noon when that body was called TO order
by President Johnson. They had en-

We're all ready for business. Before the
meeting there was considerable discus
sion concerning the action the council
would take in regard to building the
steel-areh bridge and the action OF the
police commission in adopting new
signal system To cost the city $i7.5OO
was mildly roasted by some of the alder
me1, who characterized the action OF
the commission as not only uncalled
for, but without precedent.
A communication was received from
the residents of the Eighth and Thlr-
teenth wards living beyond the motor
junction asking that the council take
some action whereby the fare TO actual
residents for one continuous ride be-
tween any two points on the motor line
should be made flve cents. The conf
municatiOn was referred to the COM
mittee on railroads.
The SiSterhOod of Bethany, who have
charge of the Bethany home, stated that
only $40 remained in the treasury, and
that as winter was coming on, and pro-
visions, fuel, ETC., were needed, they
asked for an appropriation of 5000 from
the council. On motion of Aid. Parry
amount asked for was appropriated
from the funds In the city treasury.
City Comptroller Calderwood called
attention to the fact that there was ex-
isting $69,500 of school district bonds
which were issued by the districts be-
fore they became part of the city.
The only record of the existence of this
debt is memorandum made by the city
treasurer. As there is no official record
of this debt on file, nor any record of the
action of the council in assuming the
debt, he recommended that, as he had
stopped payment on these bonds, a
committee be appointed to investigate
the liability of the city in the matter.
1t was referred to the committee on
ways and means.
