THEY DIDN'T GET IT.
The County Auditor Wants Fig
ures, Not Newspaper Talk.

Comptroller CalderwOOd, with Aid.
Parry, Loye and Downs, held meeting
with the county commissioners at the
county auditors Office yesterday with
reference to the collection and retention
of some $4,000 penalties on assessments
for city improvements, which, it is
claimed. belongs to the city. There was
no definite conclusion arrived at in the
matter, and the committee returned to
the city hall where the subject was
further discussed.
Comptroller CalderwoOd called the at
tentiOn of the committee to the fact that
after the assessment rolls are sent to
The county auditor from the city engin-
GERS office there is no way of verifying
the auditors figures. and the statement
presented by that official would have to
be accepted as correct. This he did not
think was right. as mistakes are liable
to- happen If there was no check upon
the books. He also stated that from his
talk with Mr.. COndit he was satisfied
that part of the city claim would be off
set by claim for tie collection of the
penalties. The committee instructed
the comptroller to prepare an itemized
statement of the city's claim, which the
committee will present to the county
auditor.
In speaking of the matter this after
noon, County Auditor C0ndit said that
the city authorities had no definite fig
uTes on which to base their claim, and
did not seem to be able to demonstrate
the manner in which they had reached
their conclusions. He said that if they
succeeded in showing that the county
owed the city any money it would GER
tainly be repaid. but that it must be
shown beyond a reasonable doubt"

CAUGHT ATLAST.
Cornelius Burke, Once a Police
man, Now q Convict. H.

man, Now q Convict. u
Cornelius Burke, who was sentenced
to three years at hard labor by Judge
Clemens, of Prairie du Chen, Wis.,, for
robbing the guests of the City hotel at
that place, is we'll known in Minneapo-
lis. About eight years ago he was ar
rested by Detectives Mike Hoy and
James Hankinson on the charge OF
stealing copper boxes from the cars
on the Milwaukee road. A search
of his premises in North
Minneapolis brought to light
several hundred pounds of the stolen
metal. He was placed under bonds.
but the case was never tried. Burke
had married an estimable young lady,
and, through the influence of her
friends. the cOmplOint was withdrawn.
On June 3, 1888, he was appointed a
patIolman OH the police force. For
awhile he carried himself straight, but
his Behavior was too good to last very
long. He had rooms over grocery
store in the northern section of the city,
and the proprietor commenced to miss
articles of groceries and kitchen utensils.
When his stock had been almost depleted
he set watch OH his place, and Burke
was caught in the act of rObbing the
store. He had procured false keys and
was in the habit of entering the place
atnight and carrying off whatever suited
his fancy. For this crime he was ar
rested and placed under $500 bail for an
examination. When the case was
called Burke had disappeared and his
bail was declared forfeited. Since then
he has wandered about from place to
place and been in trouble continually.
1t is probable that he will be brought
back to Minneapolis to answer the
charge of burglary after he is released
by the Wisconsin authorities.

j. Frank ColiOm, the defendant in the
famous forgery case just closed, was in
Judge HOOker'S court yesterday morn
ing, and was ordered to appear on Dec.
8, the beginning of the next term.
County Attorney Jamison says that he
will push the case for trial. but whether
on the same note or on another is not
known. The state claims that all of the
Endorsements of Mr.. BlaIsdel's name
on the III notes are forgeries. 1t is
limited that there is some newly discov-
cred evidence in regard to some Of these
notes, which will make a much stronger
case than the one just tried. Whether
this relates to any of the notes upon
which the indictments were found or not
could not be ascertained. 1t is quite
apparent. however, that the state does
not intend to let the matter rest where
il is. On the other hand, the defend
ants attorneys say that they are ready
for new trial. and that they believe
that it will result in prompt acqU ttal
of their client. The amount of the Gull
lOm-Blaisdell paper now outstanding is
said TO amount TO S2S3,C00.

consisted of Charles o. Bassett in the
part of Max, Miss Emma ROmeldi as
Agnes, Miss Helen Won DoenhOff as
Anne, Mr.. Clark as Caspar, SCR. MI
randa as the Hermit, Mr.. Bainhridge as
Prince 0ttakar, Mr.. Rudolph as
Zamiel, the deacon; Mr.. Read as Como,
and Mr.. Dudby as Kilian. and the stage
was filled at various times with hunters,
peasants and bridesmaids in rich and
picturesque costumes. while at others IL
was haunted by spirits, hObgoblins and
skeletons. Miss Romeldi rendered the
music of her part superbly, particularly
the famous prayer song, tor which she
received the warmeSt kind of applause.
Miss Won DOenhOff filled the role of
Susie more than adequately, her pow
erss, of course, being far beyond its re-
quiTements. Mr.. Bassett was an
admirable Max, his voice having re-
C vered entirely from the effects of the
cold with which he was suffering on
Tuesday night, and he sang with
fervOr and purity of tone which car
ried the audit n &c with him at every
point. Mr.. Clark was excellent as
Caspar. and Mr.. Rudolph imperson-
ated the Demon of the Glen to suit the
fancy OF the most inveterate lover OF
the grotesque. Mr.. Bassett, Miss
ROmeldi and Mr.. Clark were each
hOnOred with separate recall
at different stages of the performance.
On the whole, the opera was most sue
ceSsfully given, and its first production
in English in Minneapolis is likely TO be
long remembered.

THE SAME OLD STORY.
Poverty Responsible for a Young
WOman's Sin.

W ON an , SIN.
Eva Moore, one of the women cap
tured in the raid made by the police on
Mother Ravmer's rooms on Washington
avenue south. told Judge Emery a sad
story yesterday. A few years ago she
and her sister had married. They left a
respectable home and widowed mother
to take a separate life and build
themselves a home. The mother
was not left alone; their brother, an
only son, was to protect and care for
her. But. however happily their mar
ried life began, it ended in misery and
tears. The Older sister was in few
years left widow and Eva, the other,
was deserted by her faithiess husband
and left with little child in her arms.
Eva had lived in Ashland Wis.
She worked; but she, was not
strong. Her baby was sick and
she could scarcely earn her
bread. And then another sorrow came
to the two young women. Their brother
ran away from home and left their old
mother for them to support. Then,
with all these troubles about them, the
moment of weakness came, and they
became women of the pave. Judge
Emery made careful investigation of
the case and found the woman had told
the truth. Her mother was found liv-
ing in little Shanty on Sixth avenue
south. Her surroundings showed the
most abject poverty. Judge Emery had
the old lady taken to the home for aged
women and sent Eva to the Bethany
home instead of to the wOrkhOuSe.

ANOTHER FORGERY CASE.
W. III. Adamson on Trial in the
District Court.


District Court.
The last criminal case of this term of
court is Oh trial before Judge Hooker.
The defendant is W.H.AdamsOn, who is
accused of going to the city clerks Office
and inserting some additional property
in chattel mortgage which he had filed
there. F. P. Norris, the complaining
witness, was formerly in the employ of
AdamsOn and was discharged. The
additional item claimed to have been in
serted in the mortgage is lone spring
wagon" and the words appear to have
been written in different-cOlOrpd ink
from that Of the rest of the instrument.
AdamsOn gets around this fact, how
ever, by testifying that he keeps on his
desk a number of bottles of different
kinds of ink which have been given to
him as samples of the articles by agents,
and saws that he has not bought over
one gallon of ink in five years.
There is an exceedingly bitter state of
feeling existing between the defendant
and the complaining witness, which
crops out in number of amusing pas
sages.
Mr.. Merrick. in opening the case for
the defense, described Norris as being a
D. a-d man, and wound up by saying
that, for all he knew, Norris is a Sunday
school teacher. Norris seemed to think
that, for all Merrick knew about the
matter, anybody might be in the same
fix.
The case will be concluded to-day.
The charge is forgery in the second de-
gree,

CATCHING A TRAIN

AS interesting a sight as can well be
Imagined, is that of hanson cab tax
ing a man to train when speed and not
elegance is the necessary attribute.
While the twO-wheeled vehicle has its
advantages, speed is not among them,
and as the momentum increases the
shafts gradually raise higher and
higher. especially if the man who is
going to the train be corpulent, and
long before the depot is reached the
outfit has a bovine gait that sends it
rocking over the pavement in the most
picturesque fashion
Ladies have grown to find the cab a
great convenience for shopping and
calling, and large number of the
vehicles are kept busy of fine after
noon in this vocation.
Old drivers of cabs in Minneapolis
are paid by the week. New ones. whose
proficiency is not known, are allowed
40 per cent of their earnings in the sum-
mer time and 30 per cent in the winter.
His life, like that of the hackman, is a
romance in itself that would take vol
unIeS to tell.

OPPOSED TO THE HOSPITAL.
A Big Kick Over the Expenditure
of $4,000.

A well-defned and marked opposition
has already been made to the building
of a city hospital on the grounds do
mated for that purpose by the Uni
versity of Minnesota. Some of the
property owners in that vicinity object
to the location of 4 hospital in that 10
ity. There are quite a number of So
called charitable hospitals in Minneap-
oils, but physicians say they do
not answer the purposes for which
they are intended. At recent
meeting of the committee on ways and
means of the city council two apprO-
pTiatiOns were asked for, one of $4,000
for police station ia North Minneap-
oils and one of $4,000 to construct
wing to be used Tor hospital purposes
on the ground donated by the regents
of the state unworthy. The commit
tee finally agreed to recommend the ap-
preparation Of S12,500 for hospital and
$4,000 for the police station. When
the council the appropriation
for the station house was de-
feated, but the hospital appropriation
went through. Then there was big
talk. and notices of a reconsideration of
the vote were given. At the meeting
Friday last Aid. Potter, who had sue
ceeded in having the money for the
hospital appropriated, made a strong
plea for the building of the North side
police station, and all objection to the
hospital by the men who wanted the
police station built was overcome by
the reconsideration of the vote which
defeated the appropriation for that pur-
pose and the setting aside of $4,000 out
of the first funds available. 1t is known
that some of the East side aldermen are
opposed to the hospital, and now the
argument is advanced that the proposed
new hospital will require an outlay
of money which the city cannot afford
at present. 1t is further claimed that
the hospital, if built, will form nest
for a new political ring which would
operate the institution for personal and
political reasons rather than for the
good of the community. Naturally the
friends of the hospital scheme deny
tbaen assertions

SERIOUSLY ILL.
EX-City Clerk Seiah Matthews
Not Expected to Live.

Selah Matthews, Il well-known resi-
dent OF Minneapolis and at one time
city clerk, is lying dangerously ill at
his rooms in the Indy block. Some
time ago Mr.. Matthews fell and hurt his
ankle. liberation set in, and the dis
ease has now spread to his hips. His
condition is so serious that DR.. Phillips,
his physician, has forbidden any
one to see him except his wife
and daughter. who are attending
him. Last night Mr.. Matthews was
very low. DR.. Phillips performed two
operations upon his legs and discovered
traces of modification. While the
physician says there is some chance OF
his patient recovering, his condition is
such that death may not be unexpected.
The friends of the family, who reside
outside the city, have been seat for.
