THE RACEWAY COMPLETED.
The Water Power Will Now Be In
creased One-Third.

At an expense of nearly SITS, 900 the
new raceWay which is designed to fur
nish the mills on the west side of the
river with greater fall has been COM
pleted, and the water will probably be
turned in tomorrow. Commencing at
the foot of Sixth avenue south, with a
width of forty feet, it follows the
river bank down stream for 1000
feet. gradually widening until it
reaches maximum width of 100 feet.
At the lower end, which was begun
some two years ago, the excavation
started from zero and gradually in
creased in depth until twelve feet was
reached at Sixth avenue. Seventy per
cent of the material removed was solid
rock, the remainder being boulders and
heavy gravel. The engineers estimate
that the water power has been increased
fully one-third by the completion of
this work. In arriving at this re-
suit, it has been necessary to deepen
the tail races of the respective
mills from to Is feet, for distance
varying from 100 to $50 feet. The
amount of work involved in this part of
the improvement alone was immense,
and considerable portion OF the eX-
pense falls upon the individual milling

but it is expected that they will be ulti-
mately to the extent of ten feet. These
are the Dakota, Crown Roller, Cataract,
Holly, st. Anthony. Standard and
Columbia mills; also the shops of the
Willford & Northway Manufacturing
company and the city water works.
1t is expected that the mills.
by the changes indicated, will
secure uniform head of fOrty-fve
feet with eleven feet of water in the
canaD. To derive the full benefit of the
Increased fall it will be necessary for
the various water wheels to be lowered
proportionatelY, and this some of the
mills have already done.
The elevated tracks which pass over
the upper end of the raceway are now
being replaced in iron, and everything
in connection with the work has been
done in thorough and substantial man
ner. The entire work has been done
under the direction of William De La
Bane, the engineer and agent of the
water power company.

STREET GRADES.
Part of Hennepin to be Lowered
Talk of Cutting Lyndale.

The council committee on street grades
and additions, with the aldermen of the
Eleventh ward. attended by several
interested property owners, held pro-
tracted session at the city hall yester-
day afternoon, the matter under conSid-
GRAFTON being proposed changes in the
grades of Hennepin and Lyndale. ave-
nues along near Central park and in
front of the saveral new tenement rows
in that locality, be raised two and half
feet. But when the aldermen came
to consider the Lyndale avenue
question there was protracted wrangle
which seems likely to be continued IN
the council no matter what conclusion
the committee may reach. The propo-
sitiOn, as to Lyndale, IS to lower the
grade four feet between Groveland
street and Dell place. This is opposed
by other owners of property in that sec
ton Of the city. who argue the grade
should be by no means lowered, but
raised if changed at all. A. j. Bordman
is one who is opposed to lowering. He
says that there was originally big hole
along that part of Lyndale. which has
been partially filled up without cost to
the owners. Now, the men who bought
the depression want the grade lowered
at the city's expense and for their own
private gain. Mr.. Boardman said that
the opponents of the lowering petition
would contribute to the filling up rather
than have the grade cut. The committee
decided to go out and look over the
ground this morning before taking ac-
ton ON the matter.

FOR NAVIGATION.
Engineers at Work Making
Preliminary Survey.


Preliminary Survey.
A party of United States engineers,
under the direction of j. d. Dushane,
are now at work making preliminary
survey Of the Mississippi river between
Minneapolis and St. Paul. and upon the
report made to the department at Wash
ington will depend whether Minneapo-
lis shall become the head Of navigation
or not. In speaking of the work he was
doing Mr.. Dushane said: II started in
a little below the Washington avenue
bridge. above the old steamboat land-
ing. The idea of this survey is to make
a profile of the bottom of the river from
Washington avenue to the foot OF the
rapids at Meeker island. The way we
do it is to stretch rope from shore to
shore, with great number OF
smaller ones attached. TO this
rope the small boat is fastened by
the smaller ropes which are ten feet
apart. We go over every foot OF the
bottom and make map of it. 1t will
then be submitted to Chief Engineer
Mackenzie, who will make a more COM
plete map in detail, which will be sub
mitted to the government officials. 1t
will take us about two months to COM
plete our part of the work.
Mr.. Dushane said that if the bill ap-
propriating 100000 for the improve
ment OF the river between Minneapolis
and Keokuk passed congress it was
probable that S25. 600 would be expended
between Minneapolis and st. Paul this
summer. He also suggested that the
only thing which would make the river
navigable would be to construct dam.
in fact, there should be two dams. One
of these would cost about a million
dollars. Then the piers of the Missis-
sippi and Rum River Boom company at
the mouth of Minnehaha creek will
have to removed, as none of the large
boats will be able to get up the rapids
Oh the other side of the island.

IN FAVOR OF THE CITY.
A Decision in the East Side Cross
ings Case.

A Decision in the East Side Cross
ings Case.
Judge Hicks yesterday filed decision
in the East side crossings cases. The
decision was in favor of the city of
Minneapolis. When the city of Mime
apolis attempted to open the streets in
Summer & Newell's addition to st. An
thony, several years ago, across the
tracks of the st. Paul, Minneapolis &
Manitoba railroad, that company
claimed that it owned right of way of
seventy feet, and in spite of the fact
that the addition had been regularly
plated, and streets and alleys laid out
as early as 1866. the company refused to
allow the streets to cross their
tracks. claiming that they had
used their right of way for
over twenty-five years and that if streets
were opened through their property it
would materially interfere with their
business and they applied to the court
for redress. Two suits were commenced
in which the city of Minneapolis was
made the defendant. After being in the
courts for several years they were fin
ally disposed of yesterday by Judge
Hicks who filed decision in favor of
the defendant. In his decision, which
reviews each case at considerable
length, the court says. ''the plaintiff
has not acquired any right by occupy

The Flour Output.
Northwestern Miller.

Northwestern Miller.
The past week has been an exception
ally dull one with the Minneapolis
mills, but there is promise of better
times for the week to come. The aggre-
gate output was 59,Sl2 barrels, averag-
ing 9,96S barrels daily, against 92.770
barrels the week before, 100, 100 barrels
for the corresponding time in 1889 and
1913, 400 barrels in 1888. The dead condi-
ton of the -four market, together with
the delay in letting the water into the
canal. causes the general dizziness at
the falls. With the opening of the
canal next Monday, nearly every mill,
save the Pillsbury B, which is laid up
for repairs, is counting upon reSuming
work. The demand for flour will
hardly warrant such an active cOndi-
ton of affairs. but the millers propose
to set the wheels in motion neverthe-
less, in order to test their new water
power, as we'll as to show the visitors to
the national convention what Minneap-
oils is capable of doing. The export
shipments were 11,07 barrels, against
1880 barrels the preceding week.

IN FAVOR OF THE ST. LOUIS.
Judge Lochren Decides to Whom
the Land Belongs.

Judge Lochren yesterday filed de-
cision in the cases of the Minneapolis
Mill company against the st. Louis
Railway company, and the Railway
Transfer Company of the City of Min
neapolis. In the action against the st.
Louis the court in the findings states
that;the land in plspute was.in the pos
session of the plaintiff during and prior
to the year 1870, and at that time the
stock of the company belonged to Will
lam D. Washburn, Dorilus Morrison
and Cadwallader G. Washburn, the
latter gentleman owning ten-siXteenths,
while the other two owned three-siX-
teenths each. At that time the mill
company owned nearly all the water
power and mill sites on the west
bank of the river at the falls. Will
lam D. Washburn was at the same
time president of the defendant. At
about this time the mill company decided
to the railroad company land for tracks
connecting the mills with the main line.
1t is this line that is in dispute, and the
Judge holds that the road is entitled to
it. as it was decided permanently for
railroad purposes. The action against
nature.
Judge Smith filed decision upon
point of law that was called up some
time ago in the action of A. B. Fall
against w. j. Moore. The decision was
that after the judgment had been en-
tered the cost could not be taxed. The
point was raised by the defendant APP
plying to the clerk for an assessment of
costs after Judgment had been entered.
The decision in the case was in the de-
fendant's favor. The clerk refused to
assess. and the matter came up before
the court for deciding. The clerk was
sustained.

word bargains; but you'll have to come to

Attendance.

The second and final day of the State
Convention of Minnesota Universalists
was marked by large attendance at all
of the three sessions. In the morning
conference meeting was held, led by
Rev. E. P. Baldwin, during which the
fellowship and mission committees made

The sermon of the morning was deliv-
cred by Rev. j. S. CantwelI, DID,, of
Chicago, editor of the UniverSaliSt. The

M. ID. Shutter, the delegates paid
visit to the Church of the Redeemer at
1o'clock, and at p. m. the convention
again assembled. Rev. T. j. Field de-
livered sermon on Church and So
ciety," which was followed by a dis
cussion of the subject by the delegates.
The balance of the afternoon was de-
voted to convention business. In the
evening there was lengthy discussion
of the plans OF the church for the next
twenty years, and platform meeting
in which Prof. F. L. Wilson, Rev. Nj.
d. Shutter and William Powell gave
short addresses. The convention has
been highly successful one, and the
delegates will return to their homes
feeling confident that large amount of
instruction work has been accom-
pliShed.

Another Location.

The much-mooted Twin City Athletic club

ters The Harris theater location was finally
decided to be too far up town, and the agree
ment for lease of portion of the building
has been withdrawn. 1t is now proposed to
merge the organization with the Chrysanthe.

which will be fitted up and equipped as a
gymnasium. This will strengthen the club
greatly, it is thought, and it can start out not
entirely as a new venture, but as amen
