St. Pauis Credit Is Rated High

Comptroller Roche was never happier
than after lengthy chat with travel
ing representative of the banking firm
of Adams, Blodgett & Co., of Boston,
yesterday morning. The gentleman
from the East is not only delighted with
St. Paul as he found it. but his personal
confidence and that of all the money
markets in the East, IS evidenced in the
tenor Of his little speech to the comp
troller. In speaking of st. Paul's credit
in the money market of the world, the
gentleman said that no city in the
United States is rated higher by bond
buying capitalists. Said he: ''YOur

ti0n of your property ranges a little

TO direct query as to when the city
would likely issue another block of
bonds, the comptroller said that he
thought that July would see another
batch Of about 100000 of ~ per cents.
The fact that Messrs. Adams, Blodgett
& Co. were high bidders fer the Sl00,0OO
worth Of water works bonds sold on
May to Kidder. Peabody & Co., of
Boston, and that they are watching for
opportunities to gob5le st. Paul bonds

WORSE THAN A WOoDCHUCH
A Recently Enacted Law Tha,

N
A Recently Enacted Law That
Puts the Fire Department on
Edge.
Chief Jackson, of the st. Paul Fire
department and his assistants find
themselves in peculiar position, as the
result of an act Of the recent state legis-
lature amending that section of the city
charter which governs the fire depart
ment. By the amendment the salaries
OF the chief, his first assistant and his
second assistant are reduced to $3.50 per
year, an amount smaller than the sal
ary paid to the lowest pipeman in the
department. The third assistant, should
one be appointed, is limited to still
smaller yearly salary, the amount being
but 5000. Section eight, which was
amended obviously for the purpose of
providing for the appointment Of
third assistant chief, and modifying the
rules of suspension, now reads as fol-
lows:
Section 8. That said board Of fire COM
missioners in every alternate year shall elect
one chief engineer, one first assistant en-
gineer at salary of one. thousand and five
hundred dollars (S1. 500; and one-third as
sistant engineer. at salary Of one thousand
and two hundred dollars .(S1, ZOO. of said
fire department. to serve for two ~ years
vided, the chief engineer shall have
authority to suspend any fireman or
person il said department acting
under him, from active duty, provided that
within twenty-four hours after such suspen-
sion said chief shall notify the president Of
said board of fire commissioners Of such sus
pension and the causes thereof; such nOti-
fication to be in writing, and the president Of
said board, if sufficient cause is found, shall
approve such suspension and issue an order
for the discharge of such person so sus-
pended. The chief engineer shall have the
right to prefer charges against any elective
officer, and the charges so preferred shall be
acted upon by the board Of fire commission
erS.
Whether the amendment is the result
of an unfortunate blunder OF a legisla-
tive ''woodchuck," it would be hard to
say, but the general belief seems TO be
that some member of the Ramsey
county delegation has been foOling with
the menagerie. The fact that the bill
was unnecessarily delayed until the
very last night of the session and then
rushed through with other business, is
looked upon by many as rather suspi-
cious. Early in the session the board
of fire commissioners had City Attorney
Murray draft bill embodying the nee
eSSdTy dlueliuLneltSs which WAS referred
to the Ramsey county delegation. This
bill never saw the light, but in its stead
another bill was introduced, by men,
Der of the Ramsey county delegation,
creating the position of third assistant
chief. but providing that he should be
established in the Midway district. This
bill the commissioners finally UNI
earthed and objected to. claiming that
they should have the right to detail the
men in the department at their discre-
ton. Changes were subsequently made
to suit their wishes, and the bill was
left with the delegation for it's final
passage. The original copy of the bill
