the purpose of discussing and. if pos
slble, remedylng the evil. 1t is demon
strated that, in nine cases out of ten,
the home manufacturer can furnish
every sort of building material as
cheaply as his foreign competitor. and
further, that in many cases he is not
given an opportunity to bid against the
outsider. The object of the meeting,
that of discovering the actual cause of
the alleged unjust discrimination
against local concerns, will doubt
less result in bringing about an under
standing and possibly in the suggestion
of a remedy. A largely attended meeting
of local capitalists was held last evening
at the headquarters OF the company on
Robert street for the purpose of dis
scussing the project of forming COM
pany to engage in the manufacture of
agricultural implements here on large
scale. The scheme is by no means new
one. several meetings having been held
to the same end, and the preliminary
details are about completed. The re-
suit Of last nights meeting was such as
to warrant the assertion that a company
with unlimited capital at its command
will shortly establish such business in
st. Paul. The details Of the session are
withheld for time for obvious reasons.

!. FOR THE FOURTH TIME.
J. Case Over Which Three Juries
Have Disagreed.

The trial of the now celebrated case
of The Second National Bank against
Howe Bros. was begun yesterday before
Judge Kerr. This is the fourth time this
action has come up for adjudication, the
jury in each instance diSagreeing.
Judge Wilkin had the first bout with it,,
Judge Kerr the second. Judge Otis the
third, and now Judge Kerr has the fourth,
and no doubt his honor hopes the last
crack at it. The case is being heard
before struck jury of representative
business men, among them being r.
A. Lanpher. A. P. Moss, Paul GotZian
and Theo Schulze. The suit is an
action on promlSsOry note for $4,000.
On Dec. 81, 1887. the defendants bought
OUT the dry goods stock of A. ID. Nc
Lean, giving in payment among other
paper promiSSOry note for $1,000. The
defendants claim that this note was an
accommodation note and was made by
one of the brothers without the knOWl-
edge of the other. When the latter
heard that the former had made the
note he went to the bank to withdraw
it, but claims he was told by the vice

WILL MEET TO-DAY.
Negotiations Which Will Proba-
bly, Lead to Early Reopening of
the Grand Avenue Line.

Negotiations for settlement of the
Grand avenue electric line matters ap-
pear to be progressing favorably, but
the fear of a ''slip" was amply ex-
pressed by one of the parties to the con-
troversy last night, when he said: I'VE
don't propose to proceed any far
ther until every obstacle that
stands I'D the way is over
come. We have trifled long enough"
1t is we'll known that a Encouragement
of Manchester Park has been under
taken in connection with giving the
railway a straight line through that
property. Those who have undertaken
this work claim that several parties
have, like the dog in the manger, stood
in the way of its accomplishment, and
some of the correspondence heretofore
published in the daily papers seems to
bear out the assertions. The original
demand of Matthew Taylor was con-
sidered excessive by some, in view
of the increased value the electric line
gave to that section. Mr.. Taylor'S claim
seems to be in fair shape for settlement.
On another piece OF property 1.-TWO lots)
Archbishop Ireland and Thomas Coch-
ran Jr. say they are under bond, with
a penalty of Sill 900. for the accomplish
ment of certain conditions. Seen about
the matter last evening, Mr.. Cochran
said to GLOBE reporter. ''We have
progressed to-day to the extent of a
letter which [ have written to
the D. S. B. johnson COM
pany offering to take up the
track and poles and wires in case the
Encouragement of Manchester Park is
not accomplished in ninety days, and
restore the lots to the same condition
they were in before, and asking for a
release from the original bond in lieu
of the proposed agreement. A tele-
phone message this evening arranged a
meeting with those parties be-
tween 10 and IL o'clock to-mor-
row morning, when they will sub
nit a form of agreement which
will probably be satisfactory. The pub
lie should not understand, however, that
these are not the only parties to arrange
with. There's Mr.. Brown and lady

pected, and you would be surprised to

The publishing houses Of D. Apple
ton & Co., A. S. Barnes & Co., lvison,
Brakeman & Co. of New York. Van Anti
werp, Bragg & Co., of Cincinnati, and
d. d. Merrill, of st. Paul, have been
sold to the newly formed American
Book company. which will henceforth
control the trade of the firms mentioned
in that line. The company is the re-
suit of conference of the publishers of
this state and those of New York and
Ohio with view to adjusting the con-
stantly arising difficulties as to
prices. The circular announcing the
objects and intentions of the company
states that it is organized in the in
tereSt of a reasonable economy in
the production and sale of school books,
and that it will aim to supply books of
the highest quality at the least cost,
and will offer them at the lowest price
at which similar books can be sold in
any country. ID. D. Merrill, whose pub
LEGATIONS of school books are in general
use all over the country. was seen by a
GLOBE reporter yesterday, and stated
that he. with the other publishers men
toned, had sold out, as stated, to the
new company. which he described as
practically consolidation of the houses
referred to. The officers and directors
of the new company are:
Observation-Disclosures Brakeman.
Vice President-Alfred c. Barnes.
Treasurer-Harry t. Ambrose.
Secretary-Gilman II. Tucker.
The directors are:
Caleb s. Bragg chairman; William Fl. Ap-

ton. Alfred G. Barnes, Cnas. j. Barnes, Henry
B. Barnes, Birdseye Brakeman, Geo. r. Cath

Advices from ST. Louis chronicle the
fact that the Standard School Book
company of that city, the most eX-
tensive school book concern outside the
combine, has also been bought out and
absorbed by it. D. d. Merrill, of this
city, states that he will continue to
manufacture for the company and
will carry out his contracts with the
state extending to the end of the year
1894. The Western business of the
company will be managed entirely by
the St. Paul Book and Stationery COM
pany. The organization thus formed is
one of the strongest in the country.
Mr.. Merrill is authority for the state
meut that it is by no means in the
nature of trust.

CONTRACTORS ARE HOT
Because Local Architects Ignore
Them-Work of the Manufact-
urerS' Association.

The Office held by Secretary Phelps,
of the Manufacturers Loan and Invest
ment company, is by no means a sine
cure,as is demonstrated by the facl that
no matter when visited the secretary is
always found to be engaged in discus
sion Of some project with one OF more
gentlemen interested in manufactures
at home or abroad. Besides those who
have genuine offers to make regarding
the establishment of manufactures
here, there are innumerable callers at
the headquarters of the company who
seem to think that the sole aim of the
incorporators is to furnish funds for
prospecting and placing on the market
patent fire escapes and inventions of
all kinds by local and foreign
inventors, who ''only need funds
to make a million out of them"
All these people have to be given an
audience, and the mission of the COM
pany on earth explained to them. Com
plants to Secretary Phelps of the pat
rOnage by architects of outside concerns
in the manufacture of building material,
and similar protests from manutactur-
ers in other lines, have been so fire.

AN OFFICIAL COUNT.
Election Returns CanvaSSed

No Material Difference in the
Figures as Presented

Democracy Was Too Triumph
ant to Admit Any Doubt

Council Tackles Big Business
and AdjournS to Meet a
Last Time.

The city council occupied just one
hour in counting the votes cast at the
election on May 6. The clerk an
nounced that two certified copies of re-
turns were missing, having been
placed in the boxes which went to the
county auditor, instead of going to him.
The missing precincts were the Eighth
of the Ninth ward and the Eleventh of
the Eighth ward. County Auditor Kahn
happening in at an opportune mo-
ment, the boxes were produced and
opened and the figures added to the
clerks tabulated list. When the names
Of justices of the peace were reached 1t
was found that Olsen had received a
majority in the district for which he
was supposed to run, while in the city
at large he was less than the others.
Aid. Sanborn raised point and moved
to refer to committee of three. Aid.
Cullen said there had been an under
standing between the Republi-
can and Democratic city commit
tees by which it was agreed
that instead of dividing the city into
districts on the line of Wabasha
street. the justices were to run for the
entire territory. Aid. Hamm said the
result of the ballot was due to a con-
ference with the city attorney.
Il am sorry if the city attorney gave
such an opinion" spoke up Aid. San
born.
City Attorney Holman said that as he
had defined the law, which, was some
what ambiguous, each justice was
to run in the district for which
he was nominated. A commit
tee composed of members of
the Republican and Democratic COM
mittees had waited upon him. and
it was agreed between all that the
justices were to run all over the city.
The ballots were printed in accordance
with this agreement, the candidates
being satisfied with the arrangement.

cept the vote" said Aid. Cullen.
