ray Contest in the Supreme
Court.
The beginning of the end was reached
yesterday in the Holman-Murray con-
test for the city attorneyship, the case
being argued and submitted in the SUI
preme court. Aid. W. Fl. Sanborn ar
gued the case for Holman, Attorney
Horn for Murray. In supplementary
brief, filed by Holman, it is submitted
that the Office of corporation attorney is
an elective and not an appointive Office.
With regard 10 the argument of re-
spondent, that when an election has
been held upon the wrong day, under
an honest mistake Of the law, and the
object of the legislature has been ac-
compliShed, that the court will not dis
turb the incumbent, the plaintiff argues
that to support Mr.. Murray's conten-
ton the court hold the following:
t'Where statute imposes upon GER
tain body of electors the duty and gives
the authority to elect municipal Of
ticer, and especially prescribes the day
on which such election shall be held,
and on that day, and in the presence of
all the electors duly assembled and

who at any other time happens to re-
ceive majority of the votes of the
same electors, assembled in meeting for
other purposes. will hold the Office in
preference to him who has been duly
elected by the same electors at the time
and place designated by the STATUTE"
Stanford Newell, President Bickel and
Attorn ey General Clapp were present
during the argument of the case. Mr..
Murray was present during the after
noon, but quit before the case was

Speaking of the enforcement of this
law, Mr.. ScheTer says that he often re-
ceives letters from parties in various
towns complaining that the law is not
being enforced. sit lies with the peo-
pie themselves to see that the law is en-

other man arrested for being drunk he
can do it. and if necessary he can get a

DIVINEs MEAN BUSINESS.

ST. Paul Clergymen Will En-
deavor to Stop Base Ball Games
on Sunday.
The ministerial association met yester-
day morning in expectation of having
some fun over Sunday base ball. Rev.
r. E. Hawley. of the Ninth Presbyteri an
church, gave an exposition on the fourth
chapter of Matthew, which led TO some
discussion. The committee appointed
to interview Mayor Smith on the So
called sabbath descreation" question
reported that the mayor considered he
could stop base ball playing on Sunday
and that the law prohibited it, but that
he would do nothing. as he believed
popular sentiment to be in favor of it.
He had taught Sunday school as young
man, but the committee was under the
impression that the fourth command
ment of the DecalOgue was omitted from
his teachings. After some discussion
of the question and reports from other
committees the meeting went into eX-
ecutlve session. the result being set of
resolutions signed by all present setting
forth the fact that they were ready and
anxious to cooperate in any movement
tending towards stopping base ball play
Jig OH Sunday. These resolutions are
being presented to every clergyman i'll
the city for his signature, and it is ex-
pected that legal action of some kind
will be taken at an early date.

McCardy Airs His Grievances in a

The chamber OF commerce listened to
the reports of committees yesterday.
The financial report will be presented
next week. The committee on manu-
features was asked to report on divers
miscellaneous subjects, such as natural
gas, Prosser motors, Paris exposition,
locomotives, etc. That Oil streets, roads
and parks was required to report Oh
electric light. Both these committees
were discharged from further considera-
ton of these subjects. j. j. McCardy
presented voluminous report from the
committee OH taxes, city and county
officials, in which he reviews the history
of the McCardy-Roche case. After oc-
cupying about two columns of solid
nOapareil with this, he goes OH to criti-
else the methods of bookkeeping in the
city comptroller's Office. He states that
Mr.. Roche keeps no cash book, and that
it is impossible to tell at any time how
much money he has in his hands.
He SAYS that no accounts have been
kept of number of important street
improvements, Ihere is no account
with real estate, of which the city owns
considerable. Large sums of money
are in the treasury of which no one but
Mr.. Roche can tell the amount. Assess
ments for public Improvements are
dumped" into the ''public improve
ment fund.-" so that what has been re-
ceived on any particular improvement
cannot be ascertained. This lengthy
and scorching report was filed. The
reception committee reported that 1t
had been unable to make satisfactory
arrangements with the railroads for the
Rochester excursion, and thought the
local homeOpaths could attend to the
reception of their visiting brethren.
The members of the special committee
on wheat growing reported that unto
ward circumstances had prevented their
labors from being crowned with sue
cess. These committees were also
dumped into the pot-5ouille. A resolu-
ton was adopted inviting the National
Educational association to meet here in
1880. E. j. HodgsOn criticised a state
ment in the annual report that four
successive wheat crops had impoverished
the soil of the state. Messrs. Marvin
and Tallmadge defended the statement,
and suggested crop rotation as a cure.
Then the chamber adjourned.

- Jimmie Griffin, the young lightweight
epugilist who has for some time been
itching for fight with Dannie Need
ham. Meyers, McAuIiffe. or any other
man of his weight, was accommodated
early yesterday morning by Dick
Moore, young pugilistic tough of some
local reputation, at the Pacific saloon,
on East Seventh street. While stand
ing at the bar talking fight the lie was
passed, hard epithets were INDUCED in,
and the young pugs proceeded, in one
long o-as-you-please round, to wipe
each other out of existence. Each
scored knock-dOwn at the out
set, after which they ciinched
and went at it rough and tumble. They
were finally separated by friends, how
ever, Moore coming out with a black
eye and several scratches. and Griffin
with several bruises about the face.
Yeste rday morning the police learned
of the affair and Capt. Bresett ordered
their arrest on charge OF prize fight
ing. They were taken before the police
Judge yesterday morning and had their
case continued until to-day under $500
bail, which neither. was able to furnish.
The charge will probably be changed to
disorderly conduct. Last night Jack
Ryan, manager of the saloon in which
the row occurred, and Patrick Ryan. his
bartender, were arrested for allowing
the men to fight, and charged with dis

rated.
The joint commission on court house
met in DR.. Days Office yesterday after,
noon and heard the wilt of the board OF
public works and common council re-
garding the impossibilities of hearing
an ordinary tone of speech in the rooms
now occupied by those bodies. A
representative of the board of public
works stated to the commission that it
was simply impossible to do any bust
ness whatever in the room allotted to
the board as long as the floors we're all
lowed to be bare and uncovered. They
are veritable sounding board,
and persons cannot hear each
other speak at a distance
of three feet apart. When three or
more persons speak at the same time
the echo is simply dismal. This, added
to- the usual tread across the floor of
heavy doors, and the NOISE from the
street, makes an attempt at clear or dis
tinct speaking futile, and many officials
] as we'll as patrons, have remarked about
these disgusting properties OF the new
building. The floors, resting as they
do. on iron crOSSbeanS, and covering
hollow friedrich air chamber, reflect
the slightest sound, and send it rever-
berating through the corridors.
The. 3 acoustics in the court
and council chambers distort
"a! speech in a horrible manner
and the floors make up what the walls
fail to do, to drive the aldermanic and
legal orators mad, The commission
discussed the matter at length, and on
the advice of the architect, it was de-
cided to carpet all the court rooms,
council chamber, board of public works
Office, and each and every other room in
tile building where covering upon the
floor is necessary to remedy the defect.
Where carpet iS.inappropriate. a thick

: that Dr.. Day negotiate with the Eureka
Stone File. company for the laying of
the tile walks about the grounds. The
fence will be erected at once, the con-.
Z tract having been signed on Saturday. :
The commission sized up the residue

to- find enough money left to completely

SHORT SAYINGS.

State Superintendent Kiehle-The
next session of the state teachers insti-
tutes will open Sept. l. The literary
work will be patriotic in its scope, and
is intended to stir up an interest in
American citizenship. Selections of
patriotic music, orations and poems will
form large feature of the evening en-
tertainments that will take place at
every institute. Excellent work has
been done in the schools of the state in
the matter of scientific teaching of tenn
perance, but with view to make that
work more effective the department
sent out Dr. l.. B. Sperry, of Ohio, to
lecture before the teachers of the differ
ent Institutes. His work has proved
very satisfactory indeed. He has treated
the subject in a scientific yet popular
way. DR.. Sperry will continue these
lectures throughout the fall season, and
will spend the summer vacation in
Alaska.

Gov. Ramsey Celebrates the For

in, Minnesota.
= There was an interesting gathering
last evening at the house of Hon. Alex
;ahder Ramsey, 285 South Exchange
street. The occasion was unique, not
only in the history of the city, but of
the state at large. Yesterday was the
ef9rtieth anniversary of Mr.. Ramsey's
arrival in st. Paul as the territorial gov
efnor of Minnesota. Forty years IA
period covering the very life Of the city,
and almost that of the state
itself. The genial ex-governor there
fore had gathered round him
few of the choice spirits who carved
for themselves high position in the
pioneer days of the territory and the
early days Of the state. They were
solely old timers resident in the state.
II only thought of the matter day or
two ago." remarked Gov. Ramsey, and
so he was unable to extend his bounty
to other early settlers resident through
out the state. The evening was one full
Of enjoyment, the festive board being
enriched with mirth-provoking stories
as one after the other the guests re-
counted episodes in their pioneer life.
1t was the feryent wish of all that Gov.
! Ramsey, though he had covered the
allotted span of man, would be spared to
. see the return of many anniversaries.
