DROPPED TO HIS DEATH.

Ernest Beaudet, a Bridge Builder,
Falls Ninety Feet and Is ; In-
stantly Killed.
Ernest Beaudet, workman en-
plOyed in the construction of the Wa
basha street bridge, was instantly
killed shortly after 2 o'clock yesterday
afternoon by falling from the structure.
While working about ninety feet from
the ground he made a misstep, falling
backwards from the plank staging.
About sixty feet down he struck head
first upon the false-work of the bridge,
from which his body rolled off to the
by his fellow wOrkmen life was extinct,
and the coroner was promptly sum:
moned. 1t was found that his neck was
broken, his skull fractured and one leg
and an arm broken. The body was or.
dered removed to O'Halloran & Muir
phys undertaking establishment, where
Deputy Coroner Quincy announced
an inquest would be held at O'clock
this afternoon. A sister of the deceased
living Mendoza and another who is
teaching school near McCarrOn's lake
came to the city last night, and becom-
ing convinced that the death was purely
accidental requested that 10 inquest be
held. Their wishes will probably be
respected. The deceased was single
man, twenty-SiX years old, and boarded
at lis W est Fairfield avenue, West st.
Paul.
Beaudet was the fourth man to fall
from this bridge, ard was the second to
receive fatal injuries. The other two
are still lying at st. Josephis hospital.

Burr, and that it is only on
rare occasions that Judge Cory
sits during criminal sessions,
it would appear that there is some deep

that the action of the police force in

Minneapolis Grain Men Suggest
Remedies for the Evils of In
spection. M
Messrs. C. A. PilIsbnry, F. D. Com
mons, s. Morse and G. Grifiths, repre-
senting the Minneapolis chamber of
commerce, had an interview yesterday
with the railroad commissioners. Mat
tiers affecting the interest of grain deal
ers were discussed. CA. Pillsbury was
the general spokesman, although the
proceedings partook of a free and easy
discussion, the commissioners also aired
their individual views upon the queS-
lions discussed. The commissioners
were first asked to consider the advis-
ability of appointing committee of
arbitration on the inspection of grain.
The committee is to be composed of
competent grain men, and the desire is
to facilitate the adjustment of cases in
appeal. Under the warehouse law the
appeal from the decision of the chief
deputy inspector is to be made to the
commissioners, and as the commission
ers with the press of other business,
cannot promptly deal with all these APP
peals, Irritating delay ensues before
the diffic ulty can be properly adjusted,
the appointment of committee.
as suggested by the Minneapolis Cham
Der of commerce, would Obviate all
delay. There is no complaint against
the inspection; the object is to perfect
the working Of the law. Another sug-
gestion made was, that in all large ele-
vators there should be two state officials
during the unloading of wheat-one to
see the wheat unloaded from the car, as
we'll as man at the top, where the
scales are to weigh the wheat. This
would guarantee the supervision of the
wheat from the moment it leaves the
car to when it is weighed and placed in
the elevator. The pilfering of grain
from cars at terminal points was also
discussed. The opinion was expressed
that the railroad companies and munic-
ipal authorities should combine to- fur
nish the requisite protection. The COM
missioners agreed tO.bring this before
the attention of the railroad corpora
tons and municipal authorities, but in
regard to the other, matters, they will
take them under consideration. Chief
Grain Inspector James and Deputy In
spector Clausen were present, and took
part in the discussions raised. They

ToUGHs ON TRIAL.
Four Members of the Rice Street
Gang Before Judge Brill. s


The grand jury met yesterday morn
ing and made its final report to the
court. Judge Brill heard the cases of
the terrible Ri ce street gang of young
toughs. They are all boys and fast be-
coming hardened criminals. They are
charged with the larceny of cigars and
tobacco from Achilles store. Their
names are Pottgieser, Asher, Peppinan
and Mushbrucker. Judge Brill informed
their parents that they must undertake
the defense of the boys. as the county
should not be burdened with the ex-
pense.
Henry Malone was appointed by the
court to defend Richard Kemp, indicted
for grand larceny. Bail was fixed at
$500.
The sentence of Dennis Hurry, who
pleaded guilty of assault, was deferred
another day.
Michael Foley, out on bail, was called
for three times, and falling to put in an
appearance, his sureties will probably
be compelled to put up. He was in
dicted for throwing a large stone
through railway car window.
A. d. Warner appeared before the
court and desired that it set the days
for the trial of Clara Blatz, charged
with murder in the first degree. Judge
Brill stated that Judge Kelly would fix
the day as he would try all the criminal
cases this term.

CORY MULCTS A COPPER.
War Is Declared Between the
Municipal Judge and the Police

Court.
"When thieves fall out honest men
get their dues" is a time-honored axiom,
bnt what happens when catchers of
thieves fall out has never been said.
The latter contingency arose in st.
Paul yesterday, however, and it re-
will be, but it is evident that the best
some one will get will be the worst of it.
There is war to the knife between
Judge Cory, of the municipal court, and
Capt. John Bresette, of the police de-
partment. The magistrate scored
the first fall yesterday by fine
ing the officer 500 for contempt of
court, but there is an election coming
on and the captain has ''inflOOence,"
with which he hopes to get in on his
adversary below the ribs. The trouble
began Wednesday morning. when the
fiat went forth from the municipal
bench that all police officers before the
court as witnesses should remain in the
''bull pen" with prisoners until called.
Then the order was obeyed, but yester-
day morning, citing under the instruc-
tons of Chief Jerk, Capt. Bresette mar
shalled his men inside the railing and
refused to send them into the odorifer-

Some hot talked followed and the captain
was fined 500 for contempt, after again
refusing to order his men into the pris-
oners room or outside of the railing.
He then marched his men back to the
police station, where they remained
until Chief Clark came back with them
some time later. A compromise was
then reached by which the officers are
hereafter to sit OH a row of benches

The poem. "Marier'S Baby" proved to
be pathetic story, and the hOmely
phrases were brought out and inten-

talents as character actor fit him for
such work. He was yociferously re-

author of the verses, who bowed his
