LORING WAS THERE.
Regular Meeting of the Park
ROard-Killing Dogs.

President C. NJ. Loring, of the Park
Board, was present yesterday for the
first time since his departure for Europe
last fall. During his absence he has
made an extensive study of the park
systems OF some of the great European
cities, and in his answer to Vice Presi-
dent Haugan's speech of welcome he
told the board something of what
he had learned. He says that the peo-
pie of some of the great cities are just
beginning to realize the immense value
of parks, and that in England more
money has been paid for single park
no larger than the smallest breathing
place. in this city than the whole park
system of the Flour City has cost.
Architect Murray reported that the
Prospect park observatory had been
finished according to contract, and rec
in full. The matter was referred to the
committee oil improvements.
H. r. Higgins offer to sell the forty
acre piece between Chicago and Port
land avenues and Forty-fourth and
Forty-sixth streets for $500 an acre
was referred to the committee Oh desig-
nation of grounds.
W. A. Barnes, S. G. Gale and hun
dred or more others petitioned the
board to add some thirteen lots at the
southeast corner of Central Park to the
park SO as to give chance for drive
way completely encircling the park,
and also to add to the size and beauty
of the grounds. The section of land
they propose to add now juts into the
park lands, and on it is dwelling
house. President Loring thought the
scheme good one, and said he Beloved
the dwelling house could be let for re-
freshment purposes for more than the
expenses of it would be. The matter
went to the committee on designation
of grounds.
Commissioner Boardman thought the
board ought to have a suitable place to
hold its meetings and the secretary was
Instructed to look up suitable location
and report.
On request of Supt. B erry, Commits
sioner Hangar introduced an addition
to the park ordinance affecting the priv
ileges of dogs and other domestic ami
mails in parks and park ways. The
ordinance permits park policemen to
kill dogs running at large in the parks.
Some of the commissioners questioned
the legality of that section, but the ordi-
nance finally passed unamended.

A BIG CLAIM.
The Chamber of Commerce Site
Said to Stand in the Way of the

Said to Stand in the Way of the
Law.
A. c. Brown, Minneapolis attorney,
claims to have discovered a flaw in the
title to the ground on which the cham
Der of commerce stands, which will
give him strong hold on the property.
His claim is based on the allegation that
all the transfers of the property since it
was patented under the general govern
ment in 1855, showed irregularities
which invalidated them. The land was
pre-empted by Adelbert Hartwell, April
80, 1855, who decided the title to II. 1.
Lewis. This transfer. the claim of Mr..
Brown is. was the last legal one of the
series. Mr.. Brown does not explain
the process by which he arrived at this
belief, but he has had enough confidence
in it to hunt up Lewis. whom he found
in Idaho, and secured from him quit
claim deed of all his interest in the
property. This takes the form of a
transfer from b. l. Lewis to F. E. God
dard of lots 3. 4, Z, 9 and 10 in block 81,
original town of Minneapolis. The lots
are sold for the consideration of $500
each. The deciding is, however, merely
a conveyance to enable Mr.. Brown to
push his claim. as Goddard is his broth
er-in-law. The incorporates of the
chamber of commerce have no knOwl-
edge as yet that any such claim is made.
It IS understood, however, that they are
confident their title is good, and think
it improbable that they will be dis
turbed. The ground claimed is more
than the chamber of commerce site, and
is worth easily half a million dollars.

ANOTHER BLACK EYE.
The Saloons Must Close at Eleven
O'Clock Hereafter.

Aid. Bradish, from the committee on
ordinances, introduced an ordinance to
amend the liquor ordinance recently
passed by the council. The only differ
ence between the original ordinance
and the amendment is one that will be
very interesting to dealers of spirituous
and malt liquors. 1t provides that they
shall close their places of business at IL
O'Clock p. m. every night, instead OF at
IL o'clock. The amendment, Aid. Bra
dish explained. is to make the ordinance
accord with the state law passed at the
session of 1887 When the former OF
dinance passed the committee supposed
the state law fixed the hour at II O'Clock.

ago and fastened to correct it with the
amendment above. The salOonkeepers
who are kicking about the u o'cloe X
"early closing" movement will hardly
relish this latest discovery of the coun-
cil's. The ordinance received its first
reading, and was laid over.

Ehe First Batch of Liquor License
ADDlicatiOns Passed


The report of the license committee
on applications for liquor licenses was
heard by the council, and 1856 of them
were passed upon and granted. Objec-
tons to granting licenses to Charles
Lovely. John Eek, George D. Merritt
and John S. Wood were filed with the
city clerk, and the applications re-
served.
John Robertson made affidavit to the
council that it was his belief that John
S. Wood. who applied for a saloon
license at 40 Washington avenue south,
was not the real owner of the place,
and was carrying on the business as a
partner of one Black, an insolvent, for
the purpose of defrauding the creditors
of said Black. These applications are
all reserved. Aid. Meloy, chairman of
the liceuse committee, has seventeen on
his list Of those who have been con-
victed under the ordinance, seven of
whose bonds are incomplete. There are
In addition thirty-one on a suppli-
mentary list, which will come before

Parts of Northern Minnesota are poor

are looking we'll. Both DakOtas are
very spotted, with light yield the best
that can be expected for them. With
good weather forward the quality may
be all right, but the stems are too far

toward making up the loss for thin

President Lowry said last evening in
response to an inquiry, that the street
railway company would go ahead and
get ready, and would build the motor
cable line under the action of the coun-
Gil yesterday afternoon. The terminals
and power stations will probably be put
in before work on the street line be-
gins, as Vice President Goodrich has
stated before in reference to the cable
line. The latter can be completed very
rapidly next spring, and the cable be
ready for the summer lake trade.

refer to the street car strike and the
lowering of wages in his past deeds?
The day the strike began he announced
that the company could not afford to
build cables. He has recently discov-
cred too that electric lines are practical.
He has been learning very rapidly of
late. We knew that communication
was coming two days ago, and were not
surprised at all.

Apropos of the opening of school the fol.
lowing story is told: Among the applicants
for permit was a young child, accompanied
by his Scotch mother. The committeeman
objected to granting the child requisite au-
thority for entering school, on the ground
that he did not appear TO have reached the
required age for admission The mother
stcutly affirmed that the child was years
old, but could not give the year in which be
was born, her memory not being reliable
one so far as dates were concerned; still she
argued that the child was old enough TO go
to school and should be given permit AT
last the committeeman, wishing TO be assured
on the point Of the ctild's age, told the
mother that she would have to bring the
Bible containing the record of the childs
age to him before he would fesl free to de-
eide. The next day, armed with the desired
authority in the shape Of cheap edition OF
the Testament, she triunphantly led the lit
