TO KEEP TIE HEAD UP.
A Scheme for a More Equitable
Division Of the Water Power.

The Northwestern Miller in its issue
of to-day will say: "The output of the
mills last week was the lightest so far on
the crop. This was due in the main to
there being general suspension of
work on Christmas. There were seven
teen mills which made -four in greater
or less quantities. and the aggregate
output for the week was los. $50 barrels,
averaging 17,547 barrels daily-against
49, $40 the week before, and 10000 for
the corresponding time in 1883. This
week the mills are having lower water
and floating Ice TO contend with. but
Will materially increase their output
over a week ago. Only one was shut
down to-day for New Years, while four
or FIVE. representing daily product of
$500 barrels. are running, where last
week they were Idle. The production
to day was at the rate Of between $4,000
and p, 900 barrels. A scheme Is now On
foot looking to more equitable division
of what water power there is, and by
which all parties will derive greater
benefits than now. The plan is quite
complex one, but the millers seem to re-
gard it with favor and are at least will
Ing to give it trial. The head of water
is to be kept up, and the water mills are
to get the benefit of it in accordance
with the priority of their leases. The
steam mills are TO use their engines al
together, and are to be compensated for
so doing On basis Of equalization
agreed upon. The arrangement goes
into effect Monday. Much of the water
has gone to waste right along from
failure TO keep the head up. and the
present move is designed to prevent

day.
Fritz Bosse, who shot and wounded
William Burke at Twenty-frst avenue
north and First street on Wednesday
evening, was arraigned before Judge
Emery in the municipal court yester-
day on the charge of ASSAULT in the first
degree. Burke is lying in the city hos
pital with big bullet hole in his left
lung, and, although he rested easily
yesterday, the physicians will not pro-
nOunce him out of danger. Bosses
story of the shooting is partially corrob-
Grated by the statement of Willie Pora,
a twelve-year-old lad who was present in
the room when the shot was fired. The
boy says that Burke came into the room
where BOsSe was and said he was going
to kill BosSe. After the men had called
each other hard names Burke told
Bosse to 20 away and that if he attacked
him he would shoot. Burke started to
attack Bose. when the latter drew his
pistol and fired. at the request of AS
sistant County Attorney Briggs, Judge
Emery set the examination for this
morning and Bose was remanded to
prison,

Another Of the oldest clothing houses

made out and filed yesterday, state that
Edward Harrison, of Brockport, n. Y,
doing business in Minneapolis as +.
Harrison, has assigned all his goods,
etc., to William Mcmillan. Poor bust
ness is assigned as the cause. The as
sets of the firm are estimated at $4,000
and the liabilities at $4,000. The
heaviest creditors are in the
East, and the firm has few
debts in Minneapolis, the chief ones
being advertising bills. The following
are some of the creditors of the firm
and the estimated amounts of their
Claims: Charles p. Kellogg. of Chicago,
$3.50; Cumnor Jones, Boston. $1,000;
Collins q Johnson, New York, $1,000;
$1,000: J. r. Keim, Buffalo, \. Y,
$3.50; Morris & Lewis, Philadelphia.
$3.50; Sweet & Dempster, Chicago,
$1,345; Dan2inger Bros. Syracuse, \. Y,
$1,000; Long Bros, Chicago, $500. This
makes total of little less than $4,000.
The creditors are principally dealers in
ready-made clothing and furnishing
goods.
Harrison, the Tailor" is an old and
familiar name to Minneapolis people.
The business was established here
about fourteen years ago by James l.
Harrison. son of Edward Harrison, of
Brockport, n. Y. William p. Cady's is
probably the only clothing store
in the city which ante-dates Har
rison's. James Harrison managed
fitn c4n n l1r-1 l,rzsf
ness in merchant tailoring, ready
He maintained his competition With the
store until a year ago last September,
when he sold out to his father, Edward
Harrison. j. L. Harrison was anxious
to identify himself wholly with the
merchant tailoring business, and to do
this severed his connection with the
parent firm and established business
on Nicollet avenue. just above Fourth
street. His store is not involved in the
failure. 1t is an entirely separate con-
Germ, although run under the name of
Harrison, the Tailor, the same as the
store at 35 Washington avenue south.
When he sold out his interest in the
original venture, Joseph Harrison,
Of the enterprise. Harrison has
advertisers in the city, and it was
supposed that the firm was a solid one
financially. But the rather dull trade
of the past two years, combined. prob
ably, with the heavy lnroads made
upon the business of the smaller con-
Germs by the mammoth clothing stores,
forced the final oatcome. Edward Har-
rison, the proprietor, is also the owner
of a manufacturing business at Brock
port, n. Y, which is included in the
assignment.
Ii is said that it was James S. Ear
rison's intention to 1T up one of the
finest tailoring stores in the city, but
the failure may interfere with it. The
plan was TO secure the rooms over the
present store on Washington avenue
and fit them up in the most modern
style, and there do mail order and

THAT REFORM MovEMENr.
1t Has Not Been Crushed, and
Will Rise Again.

The bombastic young gentlemen who
constitute the ''citizens' reform COM
mlttee," and who have given it out cold
that the present god-like municipal adj
ministration very much resembles an
cient hen fruit, wish it to be distinctly
understood that the outcome of the
Maben libel suit has not caused them to
relinquish their efforts towards the end
they have in view. Sam t. Johnson,
who figured so eonspicuously in the
Maben libel case as the writer Of the
lurid comments, is one of the prime
movers in the citizens movement, and
was quoted by an evening paper yester-
day as saying: THE political reform
movement is spontaneous growth.
born of the necessities of the times, and
it will be heard from before the next
political campaign Is ended. If the
public imagines that the reform move
ment has been killed by the Maben
trial the public is decidedly mistaken.
The public will be appraised of what is
done by these committees as soon as
their work is approved by the general

Two strengthening wills were filed
yesterday in the district court with a
petition that letters of administration be
issued to A. Ii. LindIey, of Minneapo-

particular, and each disposed of $50, 1000
worth of real estate in Minneapolis.
One was the last will and testament OF
Ellen Rowland Beck, of Hastings, Sus-
sex county, Kingdom of Great Britain.
She devised her property TO her hus-
band, Samuel Beck. and to her three
children. William E., Susan and Lilly.
The other will was precisely similar,
and disposed of the same amount of
property to the same persons. The
maker Of the second was Lucy Susan
Bisshopp, of Hastings, Sussex county,
Kingdom of Great Britain, sister of
Ellen Rowland Beck. In both wills A.
II. Lindley is named as one of the exec
utOrs, and he is the American agent of

HE WON'T GO NOW
And All the Nicely Laid Plans
Are Upset.

Are Upset.
For the last few days there has been
considerable uneasiness among the re-
porters whose duty it is to chronicle the
criminal acts which go to make up the
daily history of every large city. A
story was circulated that Rev. DR.. Bur
rell intended to carry the war
right into the enemy's camp
and proposed to visit the
classic precincts of Rue de Que and
to witness with his own eyes the "hor-
rible orgies" which were said to be car
ried on in the illegally licensed and
police protected palaces of sin. Some
of the policemen heard the story first
and it didn't take them long 10 repeat
it to the reporters Now the visit of a
real live minister to house of the char
acter described would be decided
novelty, aud there was not
reporter in Minneapolis who would
not have gladly accompanied the rever-
end gentleman ION the rounds for the
sake of writing a descriptive article.
Rumor also had it that the doctor would
be accompanied, la Talmage, by a
muscular deacon and private detect
i've. both of whom would be armed to
tie teeth. OF course the doctor
wouldn't invite the reporters to go with
him, but the "boys" made up their
minds to be in at tire death. Ali
the hack drivers who haul patrons TO
the locality in question were ready to
give them the tip. and the police
men in the vicinity kept sharp look
out for any one answering the descrip-
ton of the man whose descriptive pow
erS were to startle the town. Even the
landladies took an interest in the mat
ter. and promised to send word to some
of the reporters should the distinguished
guest arrive. Wednesday night was the
time set by Dame Rumor for the visit,
but the doctor didn't materialize.
Yesterday he Indignantly denied that
he had any intention of visiting
these places. Among other things he
said: There isn't a minister in the
city who would be seen going to such a
place. But I'll tell you what we are GO
ing to do, we are going to discuss this
matter at future meeting and we are
going to see what can be done toward
the closing of these places. Remember
this, that we are enlisted for the war.
1t is against the law to keep open these
houses, it is against the law to have
street walking. We are going to do all
we can to get the law enforced, and
say if the law cant't be enforced, do
away with it, and get one that can be-.
The evil must be eradicated. Every
once in while those bawdy houses are
pulled and the bawds are taken into
court-no trouble about finding these
| places and closing them I'D if the Off
| cialS want to do il. :"
