Metropolitan Hotel Receipts Not
EQUAL to the Expenses.

metropolitan Hotel Receipts NOC
Equal to the Expenses.
George w. Magee. proprietor of the
Hotel Metropolitan. made an assign
ment yesterday for the benefit of his
creditors. The assignment was filed in
the Office of the clerk of the district
court yesterday, and names Gen. Rich
ard w. johnson as assignee. The
Metropolitan is one of the Oldest no.
tells in the city, and maintained VIDE
popularity for great many years. Last
summer 1t was renOdeled by the own
ers and put i'll charge of MIR. Magee,
VINO, it was thought, would make sue
cessful manager. Attorney Wellington,
who drew up the deed of assignment.
in speaking of the matter said:
when Mr.. Magee leased the hotel he had
assurances from one of our wealthy men ut
does not matter whom) that he would adj
vance him some money, and. relying on that
assurance, he accepted the lease OF the hotei
property. Magee's friend disappointed
him and he Informed the Boston Northwest
syndicate that he could not go on with the
agreement At that L. Minot came forward
and agreed that for term OF three years ne
would make up all Deficiencies in the run
ming of the hotel, he would pay the same
from time to time. and would undertake to
reimburse himself from the profits OF the
hotel his claim not being a personal one
against Magee, but the idea being that in the
course of three years the hotel could be
made to pay
Under this arrangement the hotel has
been run, but unfortunately Mr. M1not was
killed in a railroad accident. Up to the time
of his death he fulfilled his obligation to the
letter. His administrator, however, has
failed to furnish the money required under
the contract referred to, and in consequence
of his failure to do so Mr. Magee has made
an assignment the hotel having failed to
pay expenses. The deficiency amounts to
several thousand dollars. The contract with
Mr. Minot is one that can be enforced, and
no creditor will lose one cent OF his money.
The assets in claims and personal property
amount to about $4,000, and the liabilities
Will rot exceed $500. Mr.. Magee took the
hoiel last summer. The hotel is tirSt-cIass III
every way, and the only trouble found with
it by patrons is that the rooms are old-fash-
toned. Magee has the name of being. the
best caterer and steward in ST. Paul, aud has
kept an excellent hotel"
Mr.. Kalman was seen yesterday afternoon,
and said he knew that something OF the kind
was impending, but did not know that the
assignment had been filed. He could not
say just what would be done. The assignee
might run the hotel. Some one would run 1t
in any event.

T WlLLED INDIAS.

We're showing Twiiled In
dia Silks earlier and in larger
quantities than in any previ-
Gus season. 1t was our great
boast last year that we had
and sold more of this popular
fabric than all the other mer-
chants OF the two cities. We
expect to surpass the proud
record of last year.
Even at this early time
there's a strong demand and a
ready sale of these stylish
Twills. While now and then
a pattern Identical with ours
may be found elsewhere in
town, our styles are in the
main exclusive. We handle
these goods in such large guam
titles that the makers are glad
to give us the first choice, and
the styles selected are con-
fined to us.
IS pieces were opened yes
terday. These, in addition to
the styles received a week ago,
| make a beautiful assortment.
Bengalines in new Spring
Shades at S1.62 are equal in
quality to those formerly sold
at 81.
Half a dozen pieces of En-
broidered Pongee, black only,
in a splendid quality. These
are very stylish, and should be
! purchased early, as there will
be difficulty in supplying the
| demand later.

Has the Kansas City road, through its

grand jury?
When the jury came in yesterday
Foreman Peck handed bundle OF in
dictments to Clerk Spencer. Most of
them were very small documents. and
were at once made public: but in the
batch was one very formidable-looking
document, which Clerk Spencer very
dextrously aud rapidly got out of sight.
1t is believed to have been railroad

when questioned upon the subject,
maintained a discreet silence that was
intensely becoming, and Assistant
Edgerton was blandly and cour-
teousIy ignorant Of anything and
everything. Clerk Spencer. of course.
knew what the document contained, but
when asked to reveal it, simply 'Winked
the other eye" Before the document
was safely housed the backing upon it
was seen for moment and the words
United States VS.. John" could be
read, Whether this was John nj. Egan,
of the Kansas City road, could only be
SurmiSed.
The grand jury has not yet completed
its work, but it is believed the railroad
part of it is finished. Chairman finley,
of the Western Passenger association,
has gone back to Chicago. L. W..

QUESTION is over. The Indictment is a
long and difficult piece of legal archi-
lecture and this will account for any
apparent delay. So far as could be
learned no steps were last night taken
to bring any railroad subjects of indict-
ments into court, but to-day will
probably make some revelations.

The Railroad commissioners yesterday
were engaged in hearing a complaint filed
against the Great Northern Railroad com
pany by students from St Paul and Hamlime
who are attending the evening lectures al the
State University, and who object to waiting
on the cold platform for the o:35 D. m. train
TO town. They are anxious to have the rail
road company brought to time and be com
PEELED to keep the waiting room of the Uni
versity depot open until the train arrives.
The company claim that they cannon stand
the expense of keeping a man on duty to the
hour mentioned, though fifteen or twenty
passengers come in five nights week.
The students appealed to the railroad COM
missioners by petition, and the matter was
argued for them by law student, the rail
road company being represented by Col.
Clough. The commissioners, like wise men,
listened and said nothing, taking the case

The Chicago Times was entirely in error in
the clipping reprinted in the GLOBE yester-
Ciav in stating thatMiss Quick had been sent

ter was that Miss Qnick had been in the Of
fee for but short time and knew nothing
of the affairs of the concern, and even if
ANYTHING should develop to show that Home

tirely innocent. Judge Thomas evidently
believed SO when the case was brought to his
attention. 1t was unfortunate that Miss
Qnick should have been brought into such
publicity for nothing.

LOST DIAMONDS FOUND.
But the Owner Had to Ante One Hun
dred Dollars.

Mrs. 7. w. T. Richards, while out
driving last Sunday, lost satchel con-
tanning gold watch and several thou
sand dollars worth of diamonds. An
advertisement in Tuesdays HERALD
brought response that the property
was found and would be returned for
$3.50. As only $25 reward was offered in
the advertisement, it looked as though
the finder was trying to practice extor-
ton. The police department was COM
municated with, but they held that the
demand did not constitute an offense,
and they declined to make an arrest.
Accordingly meeting was arranged,
the result of which was that the spark
lers were handed over to the owner fol
500. The name of the finder has not
been made public,
