by Mcdonald, by score of II to 10,
which killed any chance st. Paul cher

the day, each rink putting forward every
effort in order to be left in the fourth
and final series of the contest. As in
all the other series seventeen ends

the competing rinks ran even. Shortly

South st. Paul Willing to Join the

South st. Paul Willing to Join the
Corporate Limits.
Senator lgnatius Donnelly was the
ruling spirit of the meeting of South st.
Paul citizens held at the Merchants
hotel last night for the purpose of dis
cussing the project of anneXing tina
suburban town to the city of st. Paul.
The ''eminent man" had nothing to say
during the first part of the meeting. but
before adjournment he broke out in a
large leading manner. The South st.
PauliteS seemed inclined to quarrel
over the past actions of their city Off
cials rather than discuss the question of
annexation, and it was Senator Don
nelly who finally brought them around
to a realization of what they
were there for. He Informed
them that Senator Lienau had commu-
nicated with him in reference to the
annexation, and they proposed to bring
the question before the people of Da-
kota county for discussion. Mr.. Don
nelly favored the extension of ST. PaulS
upon the condition that the terri
tory should continue to be part
OF Dakota county. His action in the
legislature regarding the matter would
be in accord with the desires of his con-
Stituents. He thought the city of st.
Paul would be willing to exempt South
st. Paul from responsibility, all present
Indebtedness of the municipality and
also assume the Indebtedness of its
adopted territory. Upon the suggestion
of Senator D0nnelly committee con-
sisting of j. Corchendorfer, Paul LuSke
and Nj. f. Lienau was appointed to So
cure signatures to the following petit
ton:
The Honorable. the Senate and the
House of Representative of the State
of Minnesota:
The undersigned residents and property
owners Of the city of South st. Paul, in Da
kota county, respectfully request your hon
oraple bodies that 20 will pass law to per-
NIT the city OF st. Paul to extend its munic-
ipal jurisdiction over the territory of South
st. Paul, while the said territory shall con-
tinue to remain part of Dakota county, as
at present and that the charter of the city of
South st. Panl shall be repealed, the details
of the bill to be satisfactory to the property
owners of South st. Paul.

E. Albrecht and about $50 other citi-

action against the city of st. Paul and
George Refs. the city treasurer, to en-
join the city from collecting assessments
upon their real estate for the purposeof
constructing bridge and approaches
across the right of way of
the Chicago, Milwaukee & st.

the board of public works had no right
to order bridge of the character con-
tracted for-that is, the superstructure
costing S69,071.73. and the approaches
and foundation S21.575- and to require
the property owners to pay the assess
ments imposed, to wit, aggregating
S62. 1l7.73 the July assessment, and the
August assessment of S32, 1884.
1t is claimed by the owners that their

that whatever benefit inureS is to the

granted preliminary Injunction, and

Gov. Merriam never offered Hon. j.
n. Searles the place on the bench of the
Fifth district made vacant by the death
of Hon. H. r. Murdoch as a consldera-
tion for his withdrawal from the CON
test for a seat in the state senate, and
Mr. SearleS last evening asserted that
he had never said anything that could
be construed in that way.
''As far as the governor is con-
cerned," said Mr.. Searles last evening,
"some days after Judge Murdock'S
death he rendered me the appointment
as Judge Murdock's successor. L then
told him that | appreciated the compli-
ment very much, but the salary was
such that [ could not accept it. | eX-
planned to him that my situation finan-
cially and otherwise was such that L
should have to make the next few years
of my life account for all it could be
made to, and it was impossible for me
to accept the salary. This was .prac-
ticaly all that passed between u.s."

to this matter in the evening papers,"
'Mv attention has been called to artl

that the governor never promised to

part of Gov. Merriam and his followers

a Davis man. Such statements are not
only false, but unjust to the governor

This many disavowal of the inter
views published last evening by Mr.
Searles effectually disposes of the prin-
cipal portion Of the stock of ISLANDERS by
the aid of which Mr.. O'Brien was TO be
kept out of his seat in the senate.
1t now appears that Mr.. SearleS and

asked for from the state armory.
Up to late hour yesterday no word
had been received from the adjutant

that the people of Hallock are becoming
reassured. The member of the National
Guard who is connected with st. Paul
