tomorrow, held an executive session
yefterday morning, at which the legal
opinions which each member had been
able to obtain as to whether the city

lowing resolution was adopted:
Resolved. That this committee do recon-
mend to the board of trade that that body

THE SAENGERFEST.
The Great Event Attracting At
tentiOn-..Recent ARRANGEMENTS.

The saengerfest will open tomorrow
evening at the Exposition building. 1t
will be the reception concert to the 700
visiting singers, and Gilmore's band,
the home chorus of 500. and the great
vocal artists will participate. The sale
of seats yesterday at Dyer's was even
greater than on Monday. -Four ticket
sellers were needed to keep up with the
demand. Any doubts that might
have been maintained as to wheth-
er the big music hall will
be filled on the five occasions
are now swept away and the question
will probably be what disposition to
make of the people. Gilmore's band
will arrive in the city tomorrow morn
Ing. to take par1 in the reception con-
cert in the evening. A telegram re-
ceived last night from Grand Rapids,
Mich, said that hundreds of people were
turned away from GiImore's concert
last evening. The seats were sold a
week in advance.
An interesting feature of the matinee
concert On Saturday will be the rendi-
ton by Gilmore's band of Prof. Carl
Lachmund's japanese overture, which
created great furore in the East last
year. Prof. Porter will sing in two en-
sembIe numbers with the artists.

AGAINST FATE.
The Wild Story of Sneak Thief
district Court Briefs

John Lynch was on trial yesterday
afternoon before Judge Hicks charged
with stealing diamond ring and pin.
The case appeared so bad against him
that his own attorney advised him to
plead guilty if he was, but John per-
versely stuck to it that he was not
guilty. Harry Emmings was the COM
planning witness. He is young mar
ried man, living at COG Hennepin ave-
nue.. His testimony was that one aft
ernOon he was with his wife in the back
of the house, Hearing a noise in the
front room he stepped in, and seeing
Lynch standing by the dresser. on
which his wife had left her Jewelry pre-
paratory to doing the housework, he
wanted to know what he want
ed, and started for him, where
upon Mr.. Lynch made for the
door and he followed, grabbing
his revolver from drawer as he passed
through the room. Following the thief
up Hennepin and across a vacant lot,
he finally stopped him by firing couple
of shots in his vicinity, just after he had
scrambled through wire fence. He
took him back to the house with him,
and turned him over to the police, after
which he went back to the wire fence
and found the ring and pin on the
ground. His wife substantiates his tes-
timony. When they were through testi-
flying Lynch took the stand, and alter

MINNEAPOLIS.
The RULE SUSTAINED.

The Investigations OF the picked G. A.
r. committee, which resulted In sus-
tanning the rules of the soldiers home
board, will probalSy stop the agitation
which has been going on for the last
three months about the pension rule.
The board has been considerably an
moved by resolutions passed at post
meetings which carried something
like an implication that the
posts and not the board governed
the home. George \. Morgan post,
which has been especially active III this
line, has very large membership,
nearly SEQ, not half OF whom were ever
present at the meetings when were
held to resolve on policy for the board.
The resolutions seem to have been
hastily passed. and certainly were found
wanting when the &. A. Il. committee
investigated the facts. Maj. r. K. Hen
derson. the local member of the board,
has had to contend with the
comrades who had laudable, am
bition to perform his duties
and while he always justified the pen
sion rule. he is naturally glad that the
agitation is over. He is entitled to
credit for his hard work on the board,
and for considerable patience with the
wordv comrades who hankered 10 run
the commission.
The commission had a Set-to last fall
during the campaign with some of the
local G. A. Il. men over the rule
prohibiting veterans in the home from
attending caucuSes. There was great
row and high talk in the post meetings
of ''disfranchisement," etc., but the
board took the common sense view that
the inmates of the home paying no
taxes should not dictate nominations
to the owners of property in
the Twelfth ward, and stuck
to it. The vets did not
vote at the caucuses. but they turned
ont on election day and the g. o. p. got
there by comfortable majority. As
the home increases in population the
political question promises to become
more and more interesting, however.
