at Purcell he had bet the conductor OF

Profession" the morning exercises were
opened on "rhe Teachers Influence" by
MIR. j. t. Parker. The writer deprecated
the tendency among teachers to follow their
vocation only as means to secure a
some more lucrative position. The teacher
can only have the best influence over his
scholars when he has growing sense of the
obligations of his position as instructor of
growing minds. The paper was discussed
by Mr.. Allen and Mr. Messinger, closing
the morning programme.

The underwriters.

Among the numerous reasons advanced by
those present for the forming of an under.
writer's association, the following seems to
be the strongest and the one most generally y
advanced:
wherever life insurance underwriters
associations have been formed there has
been brought about more honorable CON-
petition. and many unsound AID unworthy
organizations have been prevented that were
deceivng the public. Considering that in
Nebraska alone nearly thirty millions of in
snrance is being carried, which sum is rap.
idly being enlarged, the necessity of better
protection to the policy holders and to the
companies becomes apparent especially 50
since snide insurance concerns reap their
principal harvest from the smaller policy
bolders and the working classes who, as q
general rule, do not have the opportunity of
becoming as we'll posted as the bankers or
merchants who carry large amount OF in-
surance protection

THEY DIED TOGETHER.

Hon. p. A. Foster and r. L.. Lind
Drowned at MankatO.
Special to the Globe.
WANKATO. Mimi, June 30.-One Of
the most terrible accidents that ever oc-
CURED in this city was the death by
drowning last evening of Hon. P. A.
Foster, one of Mankato's most prom
ising lawyers, and r. l.. Lind, prom
inent boot and shoe dealer of this city.
Late yesterday afternoon they went to-
gether to the Minnesota river, just be-
low the mouth of the Blue Earth,
for bath. Neither returned at night,
but as they had no families their alb
sence excited no surprise until late this
forenoon, when inquiries were made
and some doubts as to their safety were
expressed. A search along the river at
noon resulted in the discovery of their
clothing neatly piled upon the bank at
the point where they entered the stream.
The alarm was given, and scores Of
men Immediately turned out to drag tho
river for their bodies. The hody of Mr..
Lind was found about o'clock nearly
half mile from where the clothing
was found. No trade has yet been dis
covered OF the body of Mr.. Foster. 1t
is presumed that one of the men got be-
yond his depth, and that the other went
to his rescue, and both went down to-
gether. A diiigent search is being kept
up for the boGy of Mr.. Foster. The ac-
cident has cast deep gloom over the
community, as both men were well
known and had hosts of friends through
out the city and vicinity. The funeral
of Mr.. Lind will occur tomorrow at 9

The Reported Population Of St
Paul and Other Cities.

The Reported Population OF st.
Paul and Other Cities.
A telegram was received yesterday
which assumed to give the semi-official
figures of the population Of several of
the larger cities of the country. In this
reckoning Minneapolis is credited with
1S5, 600 inhabitants and st. Paul with
only $4,000. Supervisor Smiths atten-
ton was directed to the report by a
GLOBE reporter.
"Those are not the reliable facts"
said Mr.. Smith thoughtfully. while [
do not profess to know the exact figure,
l advise my friends to place no credence
in such statements. The United States
census bureau has not made public
declaration of census statistics, and
until it does our people must
be content to wait. l surely will
not give any information that may
have relative to our city, and | think
Davenport is not willing to inform any
one Of the result Of the canvass in Min
neapolis."
The general impression is that the
Minneapolis reports as sent to Wash
ington will show upwards of 100000 pop
ulation. 1t is believed here that the
original intention was to make show-
ing of 250.000 in the sheer fear that St.
Paul would show 100000. But no one
fancies that st. Paul wilt reach that
figure, while all are certain that it will
exceed the 13S.000 named i'll the tele-
grams of Yesterday.

Survivors of Burned Bark Nord-
cap Are Rescued.
New York, June 3O.-The bark
Athenic, which arrived here last night
from Windsor, N. s., had among Its
crew two seamen, Henry Williams and
George Walker. who were part of the
crew of the Norwegian bark Nordcap,
which was burned at sea on the morn
ing of June 9. The Nordcap left La
guna, West Indies, May 6. with cargo
of cotton AMI cedar wood. She was
commanded by Capt. Nielsen, and had
a crew of nineteen men. On June z,
when off the Grand Banks, on her way
to London and Christiana, she encoun-
tered very rough weather. A fierce gaze
knocked her about during that day and
night. A high sea boarded the vessel,
smashed the wheel house and swept one
of the crew overheard On the morning
of the night Second Officer Orlotf dis
covered fire among the cotton III the
hold. The crew was aroused and fought
herolcally against the spread OF the fire.
Flames shot upward and envelOped the
rigging and masts. The yard arm of
the mizzen mast fell and killed two of
the crew. The flames rapidly spread.
and the captain realized the hopeless
ness of longer fighting against it. He
gave orders to clear away the boats.
Just then the mizzen masts fell and
knocked three of the crew into the sea.
The others finally got away in the boats.
and were adrift for four days, when
they were finally picked up by the Nor
Wegian bark Agatha, from London Tor
Bau Verte.

For several weeks the realty men of st.
Paul have been discussing the meaning
of the big transfers IN KitIson's addi-
ton. Latterly the public have become
interested in the large deals which were
being reported, but not until last
Sundays GLOBE appeared were the
real facts known. An application was
made Saturday evening before the
council committee on streets which dis
closed the whole thing. A brief out
line was given in Sundays GLOBE.
Additional evidence is given this morn
ing, with a diagram illustrating the
great improvements by which that por
tion of the city lying between Broad
way and the bluff will be transformed
into huge business district. Let it be
observed that this is no railroad
deal. 1t is true that many prominent
railroad capitalists are connected with
the syndicate interested in the pur-
chase and improvement of this property,
but the scheme is distinctly and en-
tirely outside the jurisdiction of any
railroad. What is proposed to be done,
and who are the prime movers in the
deal, is here untolded to the public:
St. Paul daily globe. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1884-1896, 1890-07-01

anywhere from s25O,OOO to $500, 600. The
value of such railway to the whole
salers and warehOusemen is ineStlma-
BILE. At modest estimate the saving
would be S300,000 per annum. ,
There is no gainsaying the earnest
ness of this moneyed syndicate. That
they propose to carry out this Stupen-
douS undertaking is assured. Already
they have expended SeO0000 in the pur-
chase of property and before the whole
of it is bought, the railroad laid, the
bridges built and the warehouses erect
ed upwards of $S,000,000 will have been
expended.
MIR. McMurran said last evening:
"The money that has already been put
Into that property is but an earnest OF
what will follow if proper encourage
ment is given by our citizens. 1t will
give an impetus to the business devel-
Opment of st. Paul such as has never
been experienced in the Northwest. 1t
indicates that men of large capital have
unbounded faith in the future of this
city. Citizens should, therefore, in
every way encourage and aid an enter
prise of such magnitude-ODe which
must be of such lasting benefit to the
city. This big undertaking is also an
evidence that Mr. Willard was notspeak-
ing idly when he said that he proposed
to do all that was in his power to adj
vance the material interests of the
city,"

a combination of wealthy New York
capitalists was formed several months
ago, headed by Henry Willard, j. d.
Rockefeller (of the Standard OiD, and
c. L. Colby president of the Wisconsin
CentraD. The syndicate was formed to
buy up the whole of the Kittson
addition lying between Broadway
and Brook street, and bounded
by Fifth and Sixth streets, for the pur-
pose of making it into a wholesale dis
trict. The feasibility of such a plan
was first mooted by James r. McMur-
ran, the well-known realty man, who
got the ear of Chief Counsel Nc
Naught, of the Northern Pacific.
Mr.. Mcknight brought the mat
ter to the attention of New York
capitalists, hence the combination. Lit
tie difficulty was experienced in doing
this. The location of the property
demonstrated its value and the excellent
investment which it afforded.
The greater portion of Kittson's addi-
ton has been secured, and in due time
the rest of the property will have been
transferred. 1t has been decided to lay
two tracks-there will be eventually
three tracks-up the alley way between
Fifth and Sixth streets, and on either
side huge warehouses will be erected.
This railroad will be laid twenty feet
below the level of the street grade.
Steel span bridges will be erected at
each street. the whole expenditure to
be incurred by the laying of the railroad

Minneapolis men for conspiracy against
the census laws of the. United States-as
well as upon any other conspiracy cases
that can possibly arise in this country
