POLICE COLRT NOTES.
Everyday Happenings Before
Judge MahOney.

OuuSO NduOucIs
John O'Brien was arrested by Raid
Sergeant Kirkham on Monday night,
and locked up in the central station, on
the charge of vagrancy. When arraigned
in court, however, he proved that he
had both a home and money and the
court discharged him. Now he threatens
the knight of the stepladder with suit
for damages.
The police of the north station have
commenced a crusade on the ladies Of
easy virtue who make their homes IN
the classic regions of the North Side,
and yesterday they arraigned Josephine
Beecher, Catherine Norris, Lille Stovey
and Ida Smith on the charge of being
common prostitutes. Miss Stovey had
the additional charge of keeping a
house of ill-fame against her
and she went to the work
house for ninety days in default
of the payment of 500 fine. The others
were given the choice of depositing $50
with Col. Smith or of working under
MaJrOn Taylor's supervision Tor the
next thirty days.
Pat ONeilIS name has appeared on
the docket number of times previous
to his arraignment yesterday upon the
same old charge of drunkenness. Pat
didn't have $50 about his clothes and lie
will make his home at the workhouSe
for the next sixty days. John Penz,
Charles Ryan, Thomas Hamilton,
George Ennis, Edward johnson and
Thomas Brady were the names given by
a crowd of tramps captured by De-
tectives Howard and Doyle. As there
was no doubt that they were Migrants
Judge Mahoney sent them all to the

the speaker, ''as I have learned in the
ordinary course of the business with
which | am connected. 1t is species
OF fraud and dishonesty which is being
generally winked at by the people. The
rate of taxation is naturally increased
by this practice. The tendency of the
law is to force our home capitalists to
send investments of this kind outside
of the state, or if they lend at home
the amount of tax by the state must be
added to the interest, thus increasing
the rate to the borr over and imposing
npon him the burden of double taxa
tiOn."
After prayer was read discussion fol-
lowed, and Maj. Buell., an old soldier,
mounted his warhorse and waded into
the ranks of capital for quarter of an
hour, in which he handled the supposed
monster rather roughly, and succeeded
in eliciting the wild applause of the
league. Chairman G. j. Buell. had just
begun to fancy that he had let loose
hornets nest into the meeting by ask
ing the fluent gentleman to speak,
when he finally wound up his remarks
by parting thrust which made
the representatives of capital who were
present vince, and took his seat. He
was followed by Edward Russell. the
FORMER editor OF the Davenport, TO-, TX
press, j. Roberts. D. A. Kennedy, DR..
Finnegan, F. B. Wright. DR.. Rosmon
and j. NJ. Bartlett, who discussed the
subject from various standpOints. The
room was open to visitors, and many
wandered in from the hotel lobby out of
curiosity, until all the space was filed.
The board of trade had been invited to
attend, and few of it's members
availed themselves of the invitation, but
the board as body was conspicuous by
it's absence,

MORE FROM MOORE
And the Probable Fate of His
$4,000 Suit.

The "Dr." Moore side of the Moore
divorce suit does not feel discouraged
over the decision of Judge Smith, in
which he stated that there had been no
evidence to show the criminal intimacy
between Mrs. Moore and Senator
Clough. They claim it will not affect
their damage suit in the least. Mr..
Laing, the attorney for the renowned
doctor" says that he did not show the
full strength of his hand on the first
deal. He makes the further claim that
two of their best witnesses were not
that fact they would have Sc
cured a divorce on the coun.
ter charge of adultery. Mr.. Laing
contends that he still has good
case, as he had some good witnesses
whom he did not produce at the divorce
trial, as ne wished to keep them invio-
late against the advances of the enemy.
He says the damage suit against Clough
will not be dismissed, but will come on
trial next term, at which time there
will be some sensational evidence.
On the other hand Lane u Johnson,
Senator Coughs attorneys, have been
granted until Jan. 81 in which to file
their answer in the sensational damage
suit, but Mr.. Lane is firmly convinced
that the case will never come to trial.
He thinks that the prosecution has re-
ceived black eye from which it will
never be able to recover, by the decision
of Judge Smith, which he thinks has
practically settled the fate of the dam
age suit. There were rumors about the
corridors yesterday to the effect that
the divorce case would be appealed to
the supreme court, but the whispers
lack confirmation,

ELECTED hearty applause from the must
clans themselves.
The first concert of the sixth season
of the Gounod club was given last even
ing at the Hennepin Avenue church be-
fore large audience. Handels mag
nificent oratoriO, 1.-THE Messiah" was
very creditably rendered, under the di-
rection of Charles FL. Morse, of the Con-
servatory of Music. The clubs improve
ment seems quite noticeable, although
it will be more noticeable later on as
rehearsals progress. The chorus of
eighty voices was especially creditable.

William Tells Country.

One of the most interesting lectures
that Rev. M. d. Shutter has delivered
in this city since his return from Europe
was given at the All Souls church last
evening and was entitled, "a Trip
Through William Tells Country" As
the speaker had personally witnessed
the various scenes he described, he was
enabled to picture very wildly the
many beautiful views of the Alps, and
curious fables and people with which he
came in contact. His description of the
trip his party took along the road which
winds up the mountain along the bank
of Lake Leman, and of the view across
the lake to the Alps on the other side
was particularly interesting and strik-
ing, while the miShaps which occurred
during the various pilgrimages among
the mountains furnished an amount of
humor which greatly added to the effect
of the lecture.
The many stories Of William Tell
were eXquisitely woven into the thread
of his narrative. and the whole was
greatly enjoyed by his hearers. The
next lecture will take place in 4wo
weeks, entitled ''VOltalre," and will be
delivered bV Rev. DR., Sample.

All day long line of buyers filed up
TO the box Office to purchase seats for
the coming performances of the great

the fact that times are supposed to be
hard, hundreds of theater patrons paid
the advance price as though it were
mere formality, and the ducats that are
estimated to have rolled into the Grand's
box Office on the first days's sale were
between $1,000 aud $1,000. Salvini's

What ills ahonf

The bond of injunction which was
fled Monday morning in the case of
Henry Oswald VS.. The Minneapolis, St.
Paul 81 Sault Ste. Marie Railroad. is the
first act in a suit to restrain the COM
pany from tearing up side track which
connects Henry Oswald 81 Sons flour
mill at Single creek with the main
line. 1t seems that when the 500 first
built through Oswald'S land he was dis
satisfied with the amount of damages al
lowed him, and he appealed to the rail-
road commission, ana compromise was
effected by which the railroad company
was to lay the track to the mill. After
time Oswald again kicked to the CON-
mission, alleging that the road was dis
eliminating on freight as compared to
that charged the other mills. 1t is
claimed that the railroad company be-
came angered at the last complaint and
threatened to tear up the tracks. The
suit comes up Saturday.

THE MINISTER'S WARFARE"

In their warfare" against Sunday
papers, some of the Minneapolis minis
ters who still care to oppose public
opinion attempt to pose as martyrs.
One of them, in fact, said Sunday last:
cit is anything but pleasant to stand as
the mark for the world, to be pointed at
with Scorn, to be called a Puritan, to be
called sixteenth century bigot and
other pleasing titles by the secular
press" How unfair the reverend gen.
tleman is! Evidently he has hoped for
abuse and is disappointed in not getting
it. As a matter of fact the ministers
have had nothing but kindness from
Minneapolis newspapers, and most of
them cordially acknowledge it. Their
sermons are printed. free notices are
given them, their remarks are quoted,
and many a minister who would
be preaching to empty pews now
faces large congregations because the
newspapers, have pulled, advocated
and tiattered him. The newspa-
pers of Minneapolis have no quarrel
with the clergy. On the other hand,
they meekly turn the other cheek; and
even the attacks upon the Sunday pa
perS, often very bitter, too. are reported
as fully as if the words spoken were in
praise instead of condemnation. They
are perfectly willing the ministers
should say and think as they please;
ana, when DR.. Burrell says he would as
soon have viper in his house as Sun-
dry newspaper, the Sunday newspaper
prefers to have snakes i'll his home SO
let it be.
Some of the newspapers published in
Eastern cities who have watched the
contest 81 evidently with interest,
judging from editorial comments which
are universally unfavorable to the
cause of the of the ministers, are not So
charitable. The following is speci-
men opinion, rather radically expressed,
it is true, but which indicates
quite forcibly the rather ridiculous
light in which the Minneapolis minis
tiers are placing themselves before the
world. 1t is from the SOwer, published
at Detroit, Mich. The paper publishes
the bOycotting resolutions passed by the
Ort. OdOX ministers Dec, 80, and then
comments:
Here we find these lazy, good-for-
nothing lOaferS who make their living by
working on Sunday combining to injure
the press of our country. They show
their Inconsistency and strain at a gate
and swallow Sawmill," by employing
hackmen to carry them from church to
church oil Sunday. If we were in the
Sunday newspaper publishing business
in Minneapolis, we would sue every one
OF these cOnSpiratOrS for criminal libel
for attempting to injure a legitimate
business. We believe in religious lib
eTty. and that all should be protected
in the enjoyment of their religious opin-
ions, but when ministers interfere with
others rights, we say to them, "hands

An Exemplary Young Man In

According to the story told by Will
81. Wright, the cape-coated police re-
porter of the Minneapolis journal and
local manager of Bill Nye and his col
league, Riley, he had an experience
Monday night which he will remember
for many moons. The lecture at Har-
monia hall passed off all right, but
when he offered the gentlemen S65 in
good hard silver dollars as partial pay
ment for their work they declined to re-
celve them, and Willie found himself
loaded down with the weight. He left
the hall all right with his overcoat pock-
tsfilled with the silver, and started for
the Fourth avenue cars. Visions of
masked robbers and the heroic and des-
perate deeds of ''Fhree Fingered Pete.

his head until somehow, he cannot say
himself, he found himself crossing the
steel arch bridge. Yesterday morning
he woke up and found that he had spent
the nightin haymow in Southeast Min
neapolls. How he got there he cannot
explain, but he was thankful that his
money was safe. In speaking about the
matter yesterday he said that he
had gone to the st. Anthony
hospital, and the physicians there had
informed him that he had been attacked

In fact, the fight is being waged even

Father loosely in the building inspect

according TO his own sweet will, dictate

jority Lolice commissioners, i. e.,
MesSrs. Babb and Guile, and SO the
aldermen are being interviewed. The
general opinion, however. is that the
city will be able to crawl along for sew

and that the outlay of Sl1,5G0 is hardly
warranted by the present state of the
finances.

Will Look 1t Over.

There will be meeting of the COM
mittee appointed to award damages for
the proposed widening of Hennepin
avenue at Tenth street next Saturday,
when the members will go IN a body to
take a look at the situation. The ground
which it is proposed to condemn is
owned by Mrs. Ellen Barber, and is
about twenty-five feet in width and
about ninety in length. The lot from
which this land will be taken is occu-
pied by Mrs. Ellen Barber, and the res
idence itself is of the old-style of archi-
lecture, setting back from the street
and surrounded by lawn. The dam
age to the property is estimated to be
about $4,000. Mrs. Barber strongly
objects to tie proposed move. aud states
that the majority of the residents along
Tenth street are not in favor of it.

Ex-Gov. MGILL SPEAKS.
He Reads a Paper at the Single
Tax Meeting

Il
Tax Meeting.
The Single Tax League met last even
ing in their new quarters at the West
hotel, and listened to a paper by ex-
Gov. a. r. McGill, recommending the
abolishing of the tax upon real estate
mortgages. Taxes, he maintained,
would be much less burden
some if they were evenly distrib-
uted among the people. according to
the amount of property owned by them.
AS for the single tax theory, he said
that he was neither its advocate nor its
opponent. From his standpoint objec-.
tions appeared, but from closer &C
quaintance with the subject he might
be led to believe with its advocates.
The state constitution, he said, con-
tanned provisions which were never
complied with. "By common con-
sent, assessors, boards of equaliza-
ton and everybody elSe,%I he
upon property which is not its real
value. In many cases its assessed value
is not even criterion by which the
true value can be ascertained. Bank
stocks known to be worth premium
have been valued at fifty cents on the
dollar for purposes of taxation, which is
a fiction and myth. A list of the per-
sonal property taxes paid bya large
number of the wealthy citizens of st.
Paul and Minneapolis, published some
time ago in daily paper, made one feel
sorry for the utter poverty of many of
the rich men of the two cities.''
He spoke of the advantages he claimed
the nonresident money lenders had
over those who were residents, and
claimed that lenders often have mort
cages made out to nonresident friend
or duly assigned to him to conceal the
evidence of ownership, although he has
an unrecorded reassignment of the same
back to himself in his pocket.

TRADING IN FUTURES.
Chicago Is Jealous of the Outlook
for MINNEAPOLIS.

EOf minneapolis.
The American Elevator and Grain
Trade, of Chicago, has tried hard to dis
courage trading in futuresin M1nneap.
oils. In a recent issue it says:
ITO have good market for active
future trading does not necessarily re-
quire immense quantities of wheat, but
it does require moneyed men who
have diverse views as to what wheat
will be worth in the future, and who
will back up their opinions by buying
and selling for future delivery.
For number of years Chicago has
been the chief market for the future
trading. and it will retain its pre-emi-
ence in spite of the efforts of Minneap-
oils.
Grain dealers and millers at Mime
apOlis have enough to do, as a rule, to
look after the grain in hand; then. too,
If they do find time and have the desire
to trade in futures. they are invariably
all on the same side of tile market,
which, of course, makes future trading
among themselves impossible. Mime
apoiis consumes most all of the wheat
she receives, SO outside buyers would
not naturally trade there"
The Market Record, however, takes
exception to the statements made by its
Chicago contemporary and, after quot
ing the receipts of grain in Minneapolis
for the past three years, says that the
day is not far distant when the bulk of
future trading in grain will be done in
Minneapolis.
