A HAMILTON VICTIM.
F. e. Minis Probably Killed in the
Grand Trunk Accident.

F. e. Minis Probably Killed in the
Grand Trunk Accident.
Word was received yesterday that F.
E. Minis, of Minneapolis, a commercial
traveller who represented the Minneap-
oils and st. Paul Auction and Commits
sion company, was undoubtedly among
the eighteen passengers who were
killed in the terrible railroad
accident on the Grand Trunk line
at Hamilton, Ont. April 20. The sad
intelligence came through letter from
f. G. Bell, assistant travelling auditor OF
the Lake Shore d Michigan Southern
railroad, who was with Mr.. Minis on the
Inflated train. He got Off at London,
and as the car in which Mr.. Minis was
riding was the one that was wrecked
and burned, he feels certain Mr.. Minis
body was one of the unidentified buried
at Hamilton.
Mr.. Minis went East about two
weeks ago, and as nothing has been
heard from him it is presumed that the
sad news is true. He was thirty-five
years of age, and was highly respected
and liked in business circles. He came
to Minneapolis from Aberdeen, where
he was member of the grocery firm of
ID. G. Bell & Co. He leaves wife and
three children, who reside at the corner
of Third avenue south and Lake street.
f. G. Wright, his father-in-law, leaves

, SHALL THE CITY PAY?
The Full Bench Will Decide This
Morning.


Judge Hicks yesterday listened to the
argument on the motion to have the re-
straining order in the Eighth ward
grading cases so modified as to allow
the city to pay the contractors claims.
The contractors attorneys and City At
torney Russell held that, though the
claims were illegal at the time they
were incurred, they were legalized by
the curative act. They stated that the
council had passed a resolution that
they were in harmony with the act.
The attorneys for the Eighth ward COM
plainantS held that the court cannot
change its order except on error, and
that the curative act does not legaliZe
the claims, but only gives the city the
right to pay them. The constitutional
ity of the act, too. was questioned.
Judge Hicks will refer the matter to
the fun bench at O'Clock this morning.
The claims amount to $4,000.
CRIMINAL CASES.
Judge Lochren sentenced boy, William
Brennan. to the reform school last winter
thinking that he was less than sixteen. Since
than Il law has been passed by the Legislature
making it possible for boy sent to the re
4 form school TO be remanded to the court
which sentenced him to reSentence him to
the penitentiary if over sixteen. Judge
Lochren decided. however, that SO long as
the boy was sentenced before the law was
passed that he could not be sent TO the penl-
tentary, so he went back to the reform school.
The case of Matte ST. Clair charged with
selling liquor without a license, was yester-

sale of Best's Nicollet Avenue addition,

an insurance investment. He says he
can manage his own funds, at no ex-
pense for officers and agents, and i'll
sure his family more profitably and
more safely than any other way he
knows of. One-f0urth down and five
years at per cent on the balance makes
these lots desirable for insurance,
especially as the improvements will be
of such quality as to guarantee large
profits to early investors. Go to the

MARRIAGE IN BAD DOOR.
at Least With Eight People Who
Go 20 Court.

The Babeock divorce case continued
yesterday before Judge Smith, behind
locked doors. The evidence given
shows that neither man nor wife has
any faith in the other. The husbands
testimony all went to show that the wife
had bad temper and that she sus
pected him of aSSoci ating with other
women. He claimed that she had GRIM
inally intimate with her stepfather and
uncle. A little girl was put on the
stand in the afternoon to give some re-
voting testimony. The whole thing is
very unSavOry.
John Olson was married in Hallen, in
the kingdom of Sweden, in the mon tn
of August, 1868. and Johanna Beata
Olson was the wife OF his choice. At
times since then five children have come
to bless their union. They sailed for
America, and made their homes here in
the city of Minneapolis; but Johanna
seemed to long for the old country, and
on Oct 20, 1885, with her three young
est children, she fled. SO runs the COM
plant of John, filed at the district
court, and he wants divorce.
Frank Thurston has an action
brought against him by his wife for
divorce. They were married some
twenty-four years ago in Blue Earth
county, and have three children. The
complaint is for adultery. which the
woman claims her husband committed

March.
Augusta Peterson wants a divorce
from her husband Ole Peterson. They
were married but four years ago, and
about year after their marriage Ole
decided marriage was failure and left
