on Workhouse, but they are not in

ton. They look over the bills that
come from there, audit the pay roll,
and let it go at that. The mayor
has control of the police department
now. The Wo:ktoase is practically
part OF the police department No two
city departments are so closely connect

nave voice in the management OF the
other. Then, under the present system.

The consent of the st. Louis and
Great Northern roads and the city of
Minneapolis having been secured, prac-
tically, the Chicago, Burlington &
Northern road will prepare to spend
some S750,000 in Minneapolis. AS soon
as the city council confirm the agree
ment under which the approaches to
the North side bridge will be raised.
the Burlington will have access to the
HOag lake property. There the $780,
600 will be expended in bettering that
roads terminal facilities. Among the
improvements contemplated is the
building of large freight depot. As
stated yesterday in the GLOBE. each
bridge will be raised two feet, making
a scarcely appreciable change in the
grade of the approaches. Damages
accruing from this change will be borne
by the city. The Burlington is admitted
on even terms with the st. Louis and
Great Northern roads.

THE GREAT NORTHERN, TOO
The Short Line Trains Will Be Dis
continued by That Road.

Ihe Short Line Trains Will Be Dis
continued by That Road.
The Milwaukee road will not be alone
IN reducing the number of short line
trains between st. Paul and Minneapo-
lis. The Great Northern will do the
same. Next Sunday is the date set for
the reduction on both roads.
For some time there has been an
agreement between the Great Northern
and the Milwaukee on short line BUSH
ness. Both operated the same number
CT trains. Both ran on the same time
schedule. The tickets of one road were
good on the trains of the other. The
business was also divided equally. It
was virtually a ''pOOr' Oh short line
traffic. Then the interurban electric
line came, cutting a hole, both wide
and deep, into short line passenger
trafflc. The Milwaukee people were in
favor OF reducing the round trip to 25
cents and doubling the number OF trains
That would give train every half hour
over either road. 1t was also proposed
10 reduce the time. Such a scheme
would undoubtedly have given the in
terurban line setback. But the Great
Northern objected. Short line trains
were not doing the business they had
formerly done. so the next proposition
was to take off some of the trains. Both
roads have now agreed to discontinue
ten short line trains each, that is, five
each way. The reduction will go into
effect next Sunday. One crew of train
men will be laid off by each road. The
Great Northern will, however have
work for its crew later in the season.
As soon as lake trains are started the
released crew will be needed

INDICTED THIRTY-S!X.

The grand jury, after nearly week
OF steady work, has finally adjourned
after handing in batch of thirty-six
indictments. 1t is thought that nothing
has been done after all IN the matter of
the local palaces of vice, about which
Judge Pond reminded the body. and it
is also said that but few cases were
found against the keepers of blind pigs
III the country districts. The jury paid
visit to the county jail and handed in
the following report:

after a careful examination, found the same

Ernest Zeldler came down for a short
time yesterday, and made no secret of
the fact that he was after q second in
dictment against Leo Heilpern, who was
tried last term, and a disagreement
reached in his case The first indict-
ment was for the embeZzlement of
Sl,900. In the trial he was charged with
apprOpriating considerably more, some
where in the neignborhood of S., 600 or
5000. For instance, there is $4,000
charged OH the books of the National
Bank of Commerce to the Columbia
Mill company, but which the latter as
sert has never been received. The dis
appearance of this sum is charged to
Leo Heilpern, and it may be that an in
dictment IS wanted against him on that
account.
The present grand jury seems to have
been remarkably retIcent in regard to
Its doings, with the exception of the
final act of drawing its salary.

CORRECTIONS AND CHARITIES
Senator Bell Introduces a Bill
Which Covers Good Ground.

Senator Bell has introduced bill in
the legislature which is designed to
meet need. 1t contemplates the estab-
lishment of board of corrections and
charities in the city of Minneapolis.
The board of supervisors of the poor

bill becomes a law the board will consist
of the mayor and four commissioners
appointed by him. The commissioners
will hold office for four years and re-
ceive no salary. They will have charge
of the workhouse ana the city's poor.
Every two years they will elect super
intendent of the poor at salary of
$1,000 per year: CITY physician at a
salary of $1,000 per year; superintend-
ent Of the workhouse at a salary of
$1,000 per year. The bill seems an ex-
cellent measure. Secretary George D.
Holt, of the associated charities. says
of it:

JUDGE LoCHREN DECIDES.
The st. Louis Bondholders to Re-
ceiVe Their "Divy."

Cc1Fe InSH 'DlVy.
Judge Lochren has finally gladdened
the hearts of the majority of the bond
holders of the Minneapolis & st. Louis
railway by deciding the question of the
payment of interest on the bonds. His
decision settles the one point of dis
pute which has been agitating the road
and the courts for so long, and the re-
ceiver will now be obliged to turn over
some of the hard-earned dollars of the
road to the mortgages. The history OF
the little dispute dates back some time
i'll fact, it started shortly after the road
went into the hands of a receiver. The
Seibert interest. represented by Judge
Shaw, f0reclOsed its mortgage on the
rolling stock, ard out OF this action
grew the receivership. The other in
terests have felt all along that they
were suffering from the cinch held by
the Seibert interest, and made applica-
ton to the court to have their interest
paid up, alleging that the receiver had
plenty of funds in his hands for the
purpose.
w. H. Truesdale, for the argument on
his side, was willing to nave any other
plan that the court saw fiji in which to
keep the books, while some of the in
tereSts holding bonds on the divisions
that were paying, wanted d set of books
kept separate. so that they might get
the benefit of their own earnings. Judge
Shaw objected strongly to this, and in
sisted that the various divisions were a
combined road, and their interests could
not be separated from the whole. The
argument was an intricate one. and
seemed TO puzzle the judges as much as
the attorneys in the case. u. c. TrueS-
dale went so far as to declare that in
case the judge in this final hearing did
not allow the motion, he would ask for
permission to bring an action against
The receiver, toward the collection of
the interest on the bonds. now long past
due. The decision OF Judge Lochren
will render this action unnecessary.
however. and the bOndholders will get
their claim, in spite of the long-winded
argument of the nervous eX-judge.
Aside from the fact that the interest
on the bonds will have to be paid regu-
larly III future, the judges decision will
compel the receiver to pay a large
amount of back interest. The Fidelity
Trust Company of PHILADELPHIA will
get $4,000 of back dues: the Farmers
Loan and Trust Company of New
York, SOC. ZOO. and the Central Trust
company, also of New York, which rep
resents a large number of holders of the
Pacific extension bonds. 5000. All

nephew. Mr.. Varney returned a few
days ago. He was told by his nephew
that the business had been getting along
all right. Two days afterward Mr.
Narney called at the store to go into
matters more fully. The stock was
gone: SO was young Varney. Nothing
remained but debts and a few accounts
receivable. No cash book had been
kept, so Mr.. Varney cannot tell yet just
how much he has lost. He does not be-
