STILL UNSETTLED.

The Park Board Defers Action in
the Hennepin Boulevard Matter,
The park board held an adjourned
meeting yesterday afternoon, the ques-
ton of permitting heavy traffic upon
Hennepin avenue boulevard being a
special order of business.
The special committee appointed to
consider this matter submitted two re.
ports. The majority report, signed by
commissioners Brown, Dahn and Ridg-
way, recommended that the boulevard
be opened to travel without discrimina-
ton for sixty days, or until Irving ave-
nue. shall be open to travel, and that the
committee be authorized to draw a new
ordinance to govern travel Oh the bOule-
ward. The minority report which came
from President Haugan and Commits
sioner Folwell, urged the rigid
enforcement of the ordinance as
1t now stands. The reports were dis
cussed at some length, and finally, on
motion OF Commissioner Lawrence, it
was decided to postpone action upon
them until the next regular meeting,
the committee being instructed in the
meantime to formulate new ordinance
regulating the travel upon the boule-
ward. The meeting then adjourned,
and the committee at once met to de-
eide as to what traffic should be ex-
Guided. 1t was agreed to recommend
that teams with either empty or loaded
wagons used in hauling stone, brick.
ice, fuel, bay or straw, manure and
scavengers vehicles of all kinds be kept
off the avenue. A report to this effect
will be submitted to the board at the
next regular meeting.

The Bonanza Miner Rides Rapid
ly From Ocean to Ocean.
NEW YORK, Sept. 2S.-At 1886 O'clock
this morning the private coach Grass
mere. containing John W. Mackay, the
California millionaire, and Miss Fair,
daughter of Senator James G. Fair, and
sister of Mrs. Herman Oelrichs, rolled
into the Grand Central depot attached
to the fast mail over the New York Cen
ttal u hudson river railroad, having
made the fastest trip on record from
San francisco to this city. Mr.. Gel
rlchs was at the depot awaiting the
train. which was reported twenty-three
minutes late at Poughkeepsie. Five
minutes of this time was made up be-
fore reaching this city, making the
actual time of the trip, after counting
the difference of time between the two
cities, four days, twelve hours and
twenty-eight minutes. This beats the
record of Herman Oelrichs, who in Au-
gust last made the trip in four days,
sixteen hours and ten minutes.
The party left San Francisco at Z
o'clock Wednesday OH the Southern Pa
clfic mixed train, arriving at Green
River Wyo:, in time to catch the fast
mail from Portland, Ore. They reached
Chicago at o'clock yesterday morning
at the Chicago, Burlington q Quincy
depot and were transferred to the Lake
Shore depot, leaving there at s o'clock.
At Cheyenne, on the Union Pacific,
they were one hour and twenty-five
minutes late, but made up the time be-
fore reaching Council Bluffs. They
were again delayed by freight train
on the Lake Shore, and consequently
did not get In on schedule time. 1t is
rumored that Mr.. Mackay's trip to this
city is for the purpose of looking after
the interests OF the Pacific roads in con-
nection with the Searles will contest,
and a visit to Salem will probably be
taken.

Its total cost has been over $780,
The model of the statute was submit
ted to the pope for his approval, and in
in return for the gift the pontiff con-
ferred the title of count upon Mr..
Loubat. The statue is of the size
known to sculptors as semi-colossal, and
represents the pope seated on the pom
titical throne, vested in caSsock. alb,
stole and cape. On his head is the tiara,
or triple crown. The right hand is
raised in the act of giving the blessing,
while the left hand rests easily on the
arm of the throne. Three sides of the
pedestal bear inscriptions. On one are
the papal arms, which are the armorial
bearings of the Pecci family, of which
the pope is member. On the opposite
side are the arms of Mr.. Loubat as
Roman count.

AMONG THE CRIMINALS.
Burglars Young and Riley Were
Given Six Years Each.

John Riley and William Dunn. in
dicted on several separate counts for
burglary, made their appearance before
the public again yesterday. They came
into the criminal court and withdrew
their pleas of not guilty to the in
dictment and expressed desire to lead
better lives. Judge Canty gave them a
little friendly advice, and then SEN

than they had expected, and thew
showed their disappointment in their
faces.

Sent Up for Vagrancy.
Chief Henderson has received numer-
BUS letters and several kilograms from
Illinois concerning James Brown, or
Jacob Buda, the rather eccentric ap-
pearing tramp who gave himself up to
the Minneapolis police on Thursday,
and has since confessed to two separate
and distinct murders. locating the scene
Of the crime in each instance at Cen
tralia, H., but there is still great UNI
certainty as to who the fellow really is.
The authorities at Salem have requested
Chief Henderson to hold the man. but
thus far no steps to take him back there
have been taken.
Yesterday the prisoner was photo
graphed at the request of the Illinois
authorities and afterwards was ar
raigned before Judge Mahoney
OH charge of vagrancy ami
given twenty-day sentence.
Chief Henderson received yesterday a
letter from Deputy Warden W. c. Dow
ell, of the Southern Illinois peniten-
tary, at Chester, where James Gray
is confined for the box car murder. Mr..
Dowell requests photograph and de-
scription of the prisoner, and states
that he will send papers showing full
particulars of the crime for which Gray
Is serving sentence.
The Southern Illinois papers have
thoroughly discussed the two confess
SiouS, some of them accepting one and
some the other, as it appears that the
Self-accuSed murderer has correctly re.
lated the circumstances of both OF the
crimes to which he has confessed.

NEW YORK, Sept. 2S.-Among the
immigrants who arrived in this port ten
days ago was Lima Dobhert, a comedy
young German, eighteen years of age.
The authorities refused to allow her to
land unless she could obtain husband
or guardian to take care of her, and she
thought Carl Van Hoff, of Milwau-
kee, Wis, would take care of her. Mr..
Van Hoff was communicated with, and
this morning Acting Superintendent of
Immigration O'Beirne received the fol-
lowing response, duly attested by no.
tary public:
This is to certify that I, Carl Van Hoff, am
willing to marry Lima Dobhert provided that
/ can do SO by proxy, as l am too busy to
spare the time, and l hereby authorize Gen.
j. r. OBeirne to select some gentleman to
act as my proxy. CARL VAN HoFF.
Gen. O'Beirne thinks that conducting
proxy marriages is somewhat out OF the
scope of his duties, andif Mr.Va Hoff
doesn't spare time to come on and marry
Lima himself, it is probable she will
be sent back to Germany.

FoREToLD THE QUAKE.
A st. Louis Blind Girls Strange
Prediction

ST. LOUIS, Sept. 2s.-The earthquake
here Saturday night was predicted by a
young woman, Miss Jennie. the blind
daughter of Councilman John A. Sloan.
Miss Sloan can only discern the differ
ence between light and darkness. Last
Thursday she looked up at the sun and
remarked: There will be an earth
quake soon." Again Saturday she de-
clared that an earthquake would doubt
less occur that night. When her pre-
diction was verified by actual events,
she looked upon it as mater of course.
She could give no reason for her predic-
ton except that the weather and the
appearance of the sun impressed her
with the belief that an earthquake
would soon occur

ton Treasury-Baby Prizes.
1t Is now an assured fact that the ex-
position treasurer will have a snug sum
placed to his credit in the bank after all
OF the bills have been settled. The
largest day which the exposition had
this season Melted about $1,000, and on
that day there were nearly 10000 peo-
pie in the building. the average at
tendance for the twenty-nine days dur
ing which the exposition was open to
to the public. including the attendance
at the ''Siege of Vera Cruz" was 5000
per day. The estimated total receipts
for the entire season, including the sum
which was realized from tickets
for the production of the "Siege
of Vera Cruz" was 100000.
The spectacle, however, did not
prove paying investment of itself in
consequence of the small attendance
for the last four performances. But as
drawing card to the exposition proper
it admirably served its purpose. The
expenses of conducting the exposition,
salaries of employees, advertising, the
money paid the various attractions and
the amount necessarily expended in
preparing the exposition for the open
ing, ETC., will foot up to between $4,000
ana S55,OOO. leaving IN the hands or the
treasurer something between $4,000 and
$4,000.

A QUIET ROAST.
Judge Mahoney Expresses Him.
self on the Park Ordinances.

Judge Mahoney yesterday took occa-
sion to express himself in rather severe
tones upon the irregular manner in
which the park ordinances are enforced.
T. p. O'Reilly, an eX-policeman, and
William O'Reilly, his son, were ar
raigned for driving loaded wagons upon
Lake of the Isles boulevard. O'ReIlly
endeavored to Justify his action by
proving that he had the permission of
Supt. Berry and certain of the park
commissioners to use the boule-
ward. This the court held was
no Justification whatever. He said
neither the park commissioners or any
one else has authority to grant any per-
son permission to violate the ordinances
of the city. A stop must be put to this
practice. There is no reason why one
person should be allowed to drive a
loaded wagon on the boulevard of the
city while another is prosecuted and
fined for driving on them with exactly
the same kind of wagon, and if these
ordinances are not rlgidly enforced I
shall pay no attention to them what
ever.

Closes Its Business.
The harvest festival committee of fifty
held its last session yesterday morning.
Z. X. Travis, chairman of the prize COM
mlttee, READ report stating that for
various reasons it had been decided to
entirely change the awards of prizes to
bands: 1t had been proven by letter
from X. Z. Munger, prominent st.
raul music dealer, that the Jordan
band, to whom had been awarded the
first prize, had substituted number of
ST. Paul musicians for its own men, and
1t had been further claimed that Henry
Nlcolin, chairman of the committee
which awarded the prizes, and who is
ali aldermen of Jordan and father of the
leader of the band, had exerted undue
influence 10 secure the first prize for the
Jordan band. The award was changed
as follows:
First prize, $500, st. Cloud.
Second prize Sl75 Duluth
Third prize, Sl35, Chaska.
Fourth prize, $135, Belle Plaine
Fifth prize, $l25, Winona.
Sixth prize, Sl5O. Webster S. d.
Webster was allowed $3.50, for the
reason that the expenses Of that band
were greatly in excess OF those of the
sum being put in as being the amount
OF the expenses of that organization.
The other committees submitted re-
ports, as far as was possible; but, as
there Still remain a number of bills to
be paid, no correct estimate of the
status of the finances can he arrived at.
The expenditures, SO far as reported,
were as follows:
Committee on Prizes - Paid to outside
bands, 500; to bands in the city of Minne-
apolis, $1,000.
Committee on Statistics-Cost of display,

Invitations, $40
Services at Grand Opera house, SIS.

ton were appointed committee on per-

The board of education will meet to-

is in the books be true, that will cause
some stir. This business is nothing
more nor less than the appointment of
a clerk of the board to succeed Clerk
Conger. That is the story that is going
around. Why Mr.. Conger is to be dis
placed is not clear. Some of the men,
bers of the board have been dissatisfied
with him for some time, SOFT is SAID, and
now they intend to put in some one

A SAD STORY.
A Young Girl Enticed Away From
Hep Home and Deserted

Bertha Warren, a siXteen-year-old
child, was arraigned in the police court
yesterday on complaint of Nellie Bry-
ant, an inmate of a house of ill fame Oh
Second street south, who charged her
with the larceny of several articles of
wearing apparel. The Bryant woman
failed TO appear, and the case was dis
missed. The young prisoner tells a
very sad story which, if it can be veri-
fed, will probably lead to several ar
rests. She says her parents live in
Hyde Park, Ill.,, but finding home I'M
pleasant. on account of cruel treat
ment, which she received at the
hands of her father, she decided to
leave. She met gentlemanly appear
ing well-dresSed man of about thirty,
who told her his name was Merton, and
that he lived in Fargo, and was looking
for girl to work in his family. She
consented to take the situation, and he
brought her to Minneapolis where he
engaged rooms on Nicollet island For
three days they remained there and
then Morton disappeared. After hehad
gone woman whom Bertha did not
know came to her and demanded the
rent for the rooms. She could not paw

her clothing being retained. She then
went to the house on First avenue south
to work, but learning the character of
the place, took the clothing in question
to pawn for money to keep her and left.
The Humane society has taken her case
in hand.
He Was Fortunate.
Jack O'Bren, the strong-arm worker
and all-around tough who has in the
past given the police a great deal of
trouble, and whom they fondly hoped
they had dead to rights" at last has
again escaped from the grasp of the
law.
Jack was arrested on Saturday night
on warrant charging him with an as
sault upon Claus R. Anderson, and
while on his way to the lookup, broke
away from Officer Reese and gave the
officers lively chase through the alleys
>of South Minneapolis. He was finally
brought III by Officer Howes, and when
he was sent to the courtroom yesterday
it was expected that he would at last be
settled, but the evidence was INSULT
cient, and the assault case was dis
missed. A suspended sentence for
vagrancy was then raked up again,
but Jack checkmated that by proving
that for three months past he had
wol lSed at his trade of carriage making.
and had only lost two days in THAI time.
