AN OLD ORDINANCE
Granting Herdic Franchise
Which Was Never Complied
With.

OfanGIHS defulc FfancH1Se
Which Was Never Complied
With.
The public's attention has been called
to the existence of a herdic ordinance
and franchise which, it is claimed by
some, will interfere with the plans of
the present projectors of herdic
line in the city. The ordinance in
question was passed Jan. 10, 1882,
and approved by Mayor Rand Jun. 80
following. 1t granted to George 81.
Keith, George l.. Scott and L. S. Buff
ington, their heirs and assegns the right
to maintain and operate on the streets
of Minneapolis line of herdic coaches
free from all license OF other charge
from the city.
But section 2 of the ordinance, which
apparently has been overlooked, reads
like this:
The grants herin made are upon the
express condition that SAID grantees
shall within six months from the publ
cation hereof establish not less than
two miles of stated lines of such car
riageS making not less than twenty trips
per day, etc. The section prescribes the
fare to be charged and declares that if
the grantees fail TO establish or main
tain their lines as provided in the sec
ton the ordinance shall be void.
The company which was granted this
franchise was never fully organized
and never maintained line of coach hes,
and the ordinance is apparently void.
The Court House Substructure.
At the Saturday meeting of the court
house commission the additional men,
bers of the commission, E. M. Johnson,
George A. Bracket and E. F. Com
stock, filed their bonds and were al
mitted to seats. The treasurer reported
that it would be necessary to dispose of
another block of bonds if work was
to be continued this summer, and
the finance committee was ordered
to advertise for proposals for 100000 or
S150,000 of bonds, as they shall decide.
Architect KEGS was ordered to advertise
for proposals for putting in the sub
structure, but the commission could not
agree in signing the contract for the
stone. The bid of the Cook estate was
for material to cost $4,000, but Mr.. KEGS
said there was chance to save s20,-
600 Oh the bid, and the matter was post
poned to allow investigation.

ex-minister to Mexico, has returned to
his home in Fond du Lac. When asked
if he thought Cleveland would again be

BERLIN, juno l5.-The Samoan agree
ment has been signed. The American
delegates having withdrawn the primo
ipal objections they had raised to the
agreement previously reached, 1t was
only necessary for the plenipoten:iaries
to make some unimportant notifications
in the wording of the draft of the treaty,
before it was ready to receive the
signatures of the delegates of the con-
tracing nations. The treaty guarantees
an autonomous administration to the
Samoan islands under the joint control
of Germany and America with England
acting as deliberator in tho event OF
interferences arising between the joint
controlling powers.
VIII Have . Congress.
The Samoans are to elect their own
king and viceroy and are to be repre-
sented in senate composed Of the
principal chiefs and chamber Of repre-
sentatives to be elected oy all the peo-
pie. The government 30 constituted
will have the right of levying duties Of
every kind. The treaty also provides
that the Germans whose property was
destroyed during the recent conflicts on
the islands shall be indemnified by the
Samoan government for their losses.
A special court is to be appointed to
take cognizance Of the land question on
the islands.
MaIietoa to BE Reinstated.
LONDON, June l5.-The Times Berlin
special says that the gist of the Samoan
agree ment is that King Malietoa is to be
reinstated and the control of affairs ON
the island is TO be left to the Samoans
themselves. On all questions. however,
affecting the life or property Of subject
of q foreign government there will lie
an appeal to a resident judge, 10 be ap-
pointed hereafter, and who will be either
an American, a German or a British
subject. The importation of liquor and
firearms is to he restricted.
What the Thuuderer Thinks.
LONDON, Jtine 15.--The Times, CON-
menting on the Samoan agreement,
says: Perhaps il is well that Bismarck
has been made to realize that where
American interests are concerned the
American government is very little
affected by many Of those considera-
tions which restrain the action Of the
European governments, with whom he
is more accustomed TO deal, and with
whom he can for this very reason deal
more easily. The Times intimates that
Germany will think twice before she
provokes a collision with America.

FORT SCOTT, Kan, June 1S.-There
were very heavy rains Saturday in this
section. TWAS reported that the village
of Uniontown had been swept away and
many lives lost. This he's proven
to be untrue. Portions of the town
were flooded, but there was no loss Of
life and very little damage. The dam
age in this city is much greater than
that at Uniontown. At Topeka the up
per valley of the Walnut is flooded. On
Saturday night the river came up so
suddenly that family named Graham
started from their home for the high
lands and the mother and babe were
drowned. Grain fields are flooded and
much damage will result. At Wichita
the flood destroyed a large secticn of the
Missouri Pacific track and carried away
twelve residences.
Four Farmers Were Drowned.
near Eldorado. st Augusta the Santa
Fe tracks were washed out and rail-

mated that over million bushels of
wheat are destroyed at the latter place
and vicinity.
