Levi Mayer, the attorney who is cred
tied with having negotiated the sale of
the Minneapolis mills to the English
syndicate, arrived yesterday morning,
and his appearance started all sorts of
wild rumorS as to the purpose of his
visit. One of them was that he intend
ed to buy the Lowry street railway sys-
tenn; another that the saw mills were
his object, and even the safety of the
West was thought to be uncertain from
the greed of English capitalists by a
hysterical evening paper. Mr.. Mayer is
partially responsible for the wild
rumOrs, as he refused to take
the reporters into his confidence,
and the presence of Judge NJ. b. koon,
who is the attorney for the street rail
way, in his room gave seeming found
alton. Judge Koon, it appears, was
simply on hand as the attorney for q.
w. Van DuSen. and the business under
consideration was the closing up of the
deal for the purchase of the Van Dusen
line of elevators. Judge KOon gave the
positive assurance that there is abSO-
lutely nothing in the report concerning
the street railway. There may possibly
be something in the rumor that an OPP
ton has been asked upon certain Min
neapOliS SawmillS, but if this is the case
the deal has by no means taken definite
shape,

CITY MISSIONS.
The CHARACTERIZATION OF MinneapO-
lis Discussed by the Presbyter-

The EvaDgeliZatiOn OF MinneapO-
lis Discussed by the Presbyter-
ians.
The regular monthly meeting of the
Presbyterian Alliance of Minneapolis
was held last night at Westminster
church. The topic under discussion
was 1.-THE EvangeliZation of Minneapo-
lis"
DR.. Robert Christie. of st. Paul,
opened the exercises of the evening by
reading a paper on "City Missions"
The paper was live one, and was
to the point. DR.. Christie made the
point in his paper that Christianity
was the basis of American civilization
and should be promulgated among all
classes. There were three classes of
people. he held, who were to be es-
pecially benefited by city missions.
The first of these were Christian people
who were part of the church, but who
lived in the remote suburbs of the city,
out of the reach of the churches. The
second was that class Of people who
were nominaliy Christians, but who
from neglect or other causes had grown
Indifferent. The third were the low
and degraded people who were not
Christian in any sense. DR.. Christie
then spoke of his experience among the
city missions of New York city and in
tereSted his audience greatly. A
wealthy gentleman of that city who was
supporting mission at his own eX-
penSe, had told him that it cost him
about 5000 yearly. and that the con-
vertS cost about $3.50 a piece at that
rate.
DR.. Burrell called for reports from the
various Presbyterian missions OF the
city, and some interesting data were
given.
Rev. Norman Mcleod reported for
the House of Faith. The people in its
vicinity, he said, were poor and mostly
of a moving class. There was so good
an attendance at the meetings that
teachers were greatly needed.
Rev. jackson spoke of the prosperous
condition of a mission in the neighbour
hood of the university.
Rev. Donaldson reported for Good
Will mission, and was followed by an
earnest speech by Rev. Christensen, of
the Riverside mission, who stated that
he had 433 people under his charge. DIR:
praise for John Handiside and his mis-
sion. Reports were also given from
Prospect Park, Crystal Lake, Provl-
dence and Lyndale avenue missions.
Rev. DR.. Adams, state missionary,
closed the evenings exercises with
forcible speech on the subject "What
Ought to Be Done in Mission Work in
Minneapolis" He held that the great
problem of city eyangelization was the
multiplication of the little missions.

After serving about six weeks l
found could do nothing with
out the aid of the state law.
A majority of the aldermen met
with the mayor and city attorney, and
resigned as health officer, giving as
my reasons that was illegally elected,
and if they expected to have health
department they must organize under
the state law, which specifically pre-
scribes how all of the expenses of the
department must be paid. In addition,
it says that all moneys expended for the
control of contagious or infectious dis
eases shall be certified to the county
auditor at the time of certifying other
taxes; that the same shall be
collected as other taxes and paid to the
city treasurer TO reimburse the fund
from which it was originally taken. l
have worked hard to get the council and
city officers interested in the matter for
two years. and have sent the council six
communications in that time on the sub
lect, but that body paid no attention to
the matter until within the past two
months"

NEW PUMPING STATION.

The City Engineer to Prepare
Plans for High Water Service.
At the meeting of the council commit
tee Oh water yesterday, City Engineer
Rinker Was directed to investigate the
ACCESSIBILITY of building separate high
service plant to pump the water for
Mount Curve and other high points in
the city. Mr.. Rinker submitted data to
show that on account of these high
places the pumps are compelled to keep
up much higher pressure than would
be necessary if supplementary plant
were established. He said that the new
pumps need not be very large and they
could be connected with the present
water mains at very slight expense.
Since the North side pumping station
has been in operation the other stations
have shut down and the committee au-
thorized the discharge of all the men
employed there except the engineers,
who will be retained at salaries of SO
per month. The salary of the engineer
at the Single Creek station was fixed
at $1,000 per year. Several petitions
were received from residents of differ
ent parts of the city asking for the free
use of water to construct free ice Kinks.
The committee resolved to refer all
these requests to the supervisors with
full power to act. 49,
