Open in the Afternoon.
The exposition directors held their
regular weekly meeting yesterday morn
ing in their rooms at 10 Hennepin ave-
nue.. There was but little business to
be transacted, and the meeting was a
short one. a request which was re-
ceived from the owners of Aieeb. the
automatic chess player, for space in
which to exhibit it and charge an ad-
mission fee, was cOurteOuSly refused, it
not being the policy of the management
to permit any side shows to be run in
connection with the exposition. Mana
ger Bracket was requested to ask the
mayor for the usual detail OF patrol
men to be placed on duty at
the building. The committee on
music and entertainment reported in
favor of opening the exposition in the
afternoon with parade by the military
They did not favor the idea of the Gus
tOmary parade of all kinds of organiZa-
tiOns. The board decided to hold the
next meeting in the exposition build
ing. They all seemed very enthusiastic
over the prospects for a season of sue
cess.
Art Director Smith received from
Europe yesterday a large box which
contained costly and magnificent col
lection of curiOS and paintings. They
have never been exhibited this side of
the Atlantic ocean, and Mr.. Smith is
justly proud over having obtained them
for exhibition in Minneapolis.
A crowd of wOrkmen are putting
amusement hall into shape tor opening
day. The celebrated Sanford sisters
orchestra will give two concerts IN it
daily during the exposition. 1t is eX-
pected that this will prove one of the
most interesting attractions of the expo

AGAINST THE AMERICAN.
Over 800 SharehQIders Say They
Were Defrauded.

Another suit was begun yesterday
against the American Building and
Loan association, and against James 81.
Bishop and t. E. Bishop as individu-
ais. The plaintiff is j. 1. Allen.
He represents about $50 sharehold-
ers. The complaint says that
they were defrauded OF their
stock. They were in arrears for six
months. Then. unddr the rules of the
association, their stock was sold. This
sale, it is claimed, was illegal. and made
with intent to defraud, and that the
Bishops conspired to beat the share
holders out Of the money they had paid
into the association. 1t is claimed that
the stock so sold was sold without any
action of the corporation declaring the
stock forfeited or directing its sale,
without due notice being given the
holders of the stock; sold, not
at public auction, but in secret.
1t is further claimed that the
stock was assigned to friends of the
Bishops or to their employees. An in
teresting statement is appended TO the
complaint. 1t is alleged that each or
these 800 stockholders had paid into the
association amounts ranging from 50 to
Sl95, the whole aggregating $l6,03l.Sl.
The stock of no man numbered among
the shareholders brought over 81, 1t IS
Said-that is, the man who had paid in
Sl95 had his interest sold for 81. All the
claims have been assigned to Allen. He
sues to recover SIC, 02l.Sl.

Suits Against the American
B. and L.--General
City News.

The park board held regular NEE
ing yesterday afternoon, with Com
missioner Brown in the chair and every
member present; even Commissioner
Lawrence. who has not attended a
meeting before in a number of weeks.
The principal business which came up
was the First ward park matter and the
finances of the board.
A remOnstrance against the purchase
of property for the proposed First ward
park, signed by J. B. Gilfillan and forty
one other property owners, was pre-
scented and read, also similar remon-
strances from Titus Ma eek and forty
others. and P. D. Mcmillan and four
others.
a communication from John Patter-
son was then submitted, in which that
gentleman proposes to sell to the board
block s in Marshal's addition to st.
Anthony for $4,000. Mr.. Patterson states
in his letter that he does not believe
that park is needed in the First ward
and that he is not in favor OF having one
at present, but that. if the board Is de-
termined TO have one, his offer is the
most favorable yet submitted. He
claims that his property is not only
cheaper than block in the same addi-
ton, which it was proposed TO purchase
and which would cost SO, 900, but that
it is high and level and would require
neither grading nor Sodding.
A remonstrance from John L. Buey
and twenty-One others against the pur-
chase of any property for park in the
First ward was also read.
4 communication from the law firm
of Giltillan, Belden & Willard was pre-
scented in which those gentlemen object
to the park on the grounds that times
are hard, that the proposed location is
not central and that a large majority OF
those who are in favor of the improve
ment are either nOn-TeSidentS OF the
section to be assessed or are nOn-aSSes-
sable, while the directors are owners of
DeighDOring property and Will be as
seSsed. The entire matter was refer
red to Joint committee consisting of
the special committee on the First ward
park and the standing committee on
designation of grounds.
Claims amounting to S2,471.71 were
read and allowed.
The secretary stated that the coupons
on bOndS,of series 81, 81 and 80 had fallen
due on Aug. !. and as there had been no
opportunity TO lay the matter before the
board, he and President Haugan had
drawn warrants amounting TO Sl1.300
for the payment of the same. This ae-
ton was Endorsed by the board.
A warrant in the amount of S3.09l. is
was ordered drawn in favor of p. ).
Peterson to pay for trees planted, and
another in the sum of S11.254 in favor Of
the Farmers and Mechanics Savings
bank in payment of a note.
The following financial statement
was then submitted Ov the secretary.

William Soloman Was Not Pro-
tected-ReIIer's Horse Killed,

William SOloman has a queer COM
plant against the street railway COM
pany. According to his story he was
riding some time ago on a street car
along with two slightly inebriated indi-
viduals. They began to abuse
SOloman, and wound up by
striking him in the face. He
says that the conductor and driver were
Oh the car at the time and saw the as
sault, but made no attempt to prevent
it. Solman thinks it was their duty as
employees of the street railway company
to protect him while On the car. He
wants the company to pay him $1,000
for the beating he received.
Another suit against the street rail-
way company is the result of the adOp-
ton of the electric system. Charles
Keller is the complainant. He was
driving on Cedar avenue, he says, when
his horse was killed by shock from an
electric wire. The trolley wire was
broken, one end lying on the street. A
crowd had collected, and a policeman
ordered him to drive close to the curb
stone. The pavement was wet and the
current passed from the wire through
the pavement to the team, killing one
horse and injuring The other. Keller
wants the company to pay for the loss
he has sustained.

This statement shows that there Will
be a deficit of 50, 25T1.;}3. The matter of
finances was then discussed at some
length. and it was agreed that by rigid
retrenchment this deficit could be re-
duced to 5000. 1t was decided to re-
trench in every possible way, that no
new improvements shall be begun, that
economy shall be observed in the COM
pletion of those already begun. and that
such saving as is possible shall be made
in the matter of maintaining the park
police force.

sarv grading and filling shall have been
done bv the present owners. Commits

ton to postpone failed to carry

ing il would have to lay over until the
next year, aed the motion to purchase
was put. but failed TO carry.

ent tOmake the improvements out of the

mittee on improvements.

that at the next meeting he would pre-
sent an amendment to the present park
regulations which would eliminate that

/ planned that he had frequently received

Mrs. George Lyons, who resides on
Fifth street north, neyr the West hotel,
attempted suicide few days ago by

ried only last spring, butt appears that
soon afterward she learned of certain
acts of infidelity on the part of her hus-
band, which were repeated from time
to time until week or two ago, when
she reproached him for his faithless-
ness. Her complaint made him angry,
and he left her i'll destitute circum-
stances and has not since returned. She
finally became desperate and attempted
to end her life as stated. The case was
reported to Secretary Holt on Tuesday,
and the unfortunate woman is now be-

THE CENSOR.
She's a nriestess of Minerva.

She's priestess of Minerva.
With a scorn of lighter things:
And no idle smile can swerve her.
For she guards the Pierian springs.
And she draws the sparkling waters
For the learned and the weak,
Giving maidens "Beauty's Daughters,
And professors grabbed Greek.
In the library fate's thrust her
A sweet symphony in gray,
With soft eyes whose brilliant ulster
Fairly takes ones breath away.
But still she really seems TO know
Each Of the weighty tones
That range from Kipling to De Foe,
From Homer up to Holmes.
II ask for Herbert Spencer,
Or fer Plato or Carlyle,
l can catch the pretty censor
In faint approving smile;
But at Anna Karenina.
Or the gay contes of France,
She wears cold demeanor
And q blushing, downcaSt glance.

the two roads named have asked their
st. Paul connections to accept an ar
bitrary of $40 between st. Paul and Chi
cago on all through business to and

favor of accepting this proposition was
the Wisconsin Central, which, of course,

ground that SO is less than their due
proportion on such through business,
and decided to continue the present pro-
