The two attorneys called at the sheriff's

an extended conversation with Deputy
Sheriff Shepley, went directly to the
jail and were taken to the cells occupied
by the Barretts.
Tim was so nervous that he could not
stand still while talking, and paced up
and down his cell, working his hands
all the time. Pete seemed less nervous,
but appeared to realize his position
more keenly than did his older brother.

A PLEASANT WITNESS.
Mrs. Mary Hopkins Makes Things
Interesting for the LAWYERS,

The suit of Mrs. Mary Hopkins
against ex-Sheriff Swenson. to recover
$2,4O0 damages for an attachment of
1925 placed on her stock by Mr.. Sven
son. was put on trial in Judge Hicks
court yesterday. The case was hot
one from the start, and especially so
after Mrs. Hopkins was placed on the
stand. She proved to have temper
which differed considerably from the
one Job, of Bible fame, was supposed to
have. John NJ. Miller was Mr.. Sven
sens attorney. and more than once be-
came involved in wordy war with the
witness. She wore handsome silk
dress, a sealskin sacque and a brown
plush bonnet with green ribbons. She
was most positive witness, and at
several times looked as though she
would enjoy jumping on Nh. Miller
with both feet. The lady answered
every question with savage shake of
her massive head, and snapped her lips
together in a way not at all pleasant.
The case will be continued to-day.

SOMETHING DROPPED.
Persons Aiding and Abetting" a
Skating Race Heavily Fined.


Judge Mahoney bore down with sur
prising severity yesterday on the parties
arrested for conducting the Sunday
skating race held at the base ball park
in South Minneapolis. AS Sunday
amusements of national nature have
been permitted, and skating is enjoyed
by thousands in various parts of
the city on that day during the

OF surprise. Axel PaulSen, Rudolph

guilty. 4. S. Varnum, of the GLOBE,

to represent his paper, and bad held
time on the race at the management'S re-
quest. S. p. Jones, of the Pioneer Press,
had been also present to act in a repor-
torlal capacity. He had been requested
to officiate as Judge, and consented.
AS Paulsen secured a long lead he saw
there was no need for his services, and
left before the race was over. He did
not consider himself guilty, but would
plead so rather than be put to the
trouble and expense of making de-
Tense.

has accustomed HIM to surprises,
was caught with his mouth open.
The fainting reporters were cat
ried out to the fresh air, and
Manager Wettleson, who seemed TO
be threatened with an attack of apo
plexy was sponged off with ice water.
A motion for stay of sentence to

was made by Sergt. Krumweide and
Officers Powers and Shafer at the board
ing house of Mrs. Firstrnm, POS Twelfth
avenue south. They were locked up at
the station, and yesterday morning., on
being arraigned on the charge OF adul-
terry, pleaded not guilty. They were
sent back to Jail, and will be examined
this afternoon. To this there is a tale
attached. Mary and Jakob have known
each other for some four years,
and have been engaged some time. A
year ago she travelled TO Dakota to
be married. only to find her atfianced
dead drunk. She waited long enough
for him to get sober sufficiently to COM
prehend her indignation, gave him a
piece of her mind, and, turning on her
heel, sought single bliss in the Flour
City again. Then Dahlgren was balm
to her broken heart aud she engaged
herself to him, but she had an eye for
the filthy lucre. and Dahlgren had it
not. She loved him. but thought she
loved Olson's money more, SO she
patched up her broken love in that
quarter. But one day was passed in
matrimonial joy, and then they
quarreled and the old cold
ness came again, and once more
Mary soothed her sorrow by Dahlgren's
love, with the result above related.
Mrs. Olson was a waiter in the Wilbur
house for time, and also at the Column
bia restaurant, Oh Third street. The
queer part of the trial is that Mr.. Olson
and Dahlgren are on one side, while
Jakob is on both, as he brought the
charge and then employed the attorney
to defend his faithless wife. None OF
the three look ON the matter as of much

Railroads Want an Agreement
That Holds the Other Man..

That Holds the Other Man.
The Market Record says, concerning
the proposition submitted by the Fer
minal Dispatch company to settle the
demurrage difficulty: "The weakness
of the whole thing is that the railroad
proposes to bind up other parties BY
agreement, but do not offer to be them
selves bound to perform anything
They simply agree to negative prop.
osition, that if others do right they will
not harm them. Would it not be as
we'll that the roads also bind themselves
by agreement that, when proper dis
position is given, the cars shall not lie
in the yards here for months be forethey
are moved, and that if they do the roads
at fault shall pay for the demurrage.
There are any number of cases that can
be mentioned where contracts have
been repudiated on account OF such
neglect, at great cost to parties inter-
ested. There are instances IN which
grain receivers have imposed upon
good -natured railroad officials, but they
are few as compared with the number
less ones that have been imposed by
railroads having terminals in this city,"
