EDGAR HAS RETURNED.
He Talks of the MiIlers' Excur-
sion to Europe.


sion to Europe.
Edgar, of the Northwestern Miller, is
the first of those who went on the mill
ers excursion to Europe to return to
Minneapolis. He arrived home yester-
day morning. He talks enthusi-
astically of the trip and what
he saw while in the queens
dominions. The members of the mil
4ers' excursion, which was originated
by the Northwestern Miller. of which
Mr.. Edgar is the editor, sailed from
New York SlXty-five strong on the 9th
OF May. After landing at Liverpool
and being loyalty entertained by the
Liverpool Trade association, the
party visited various parts of
Great Britain, Chester where they
were entertained by the dean of the
famous cathedral. dining with him and
the mayor of the city; up the river Dee,
whose traditional miller of Dee and the
clever verses which Mr. Edgar has
written concerning that parsonage had
a lodgment in the minds of the mlllers;
back to Liverpool, banqueted by the
Conservative club. to Melrose abbey
and on to Edinburgh.
Mr.. Edgar says he saw more drunk
ennesS in Edinburgh than i'll any city he
ever visited. Everybody was drunk
Saturday night, and every public house
was closed Sunday. They were enter
tanned by Glasgow flourmen on Loeb
Katrine. Then they journeyed to Lon
don, to Amsterdam, to Rotterdam, to
The Hague and back to Liverpool.
They visited but one mill in Glasgow.
That mill was said to be the finest in
Europe. Mr.. Edgar says it is
easily away behind American
mills. He found English and Dutch
flour dealers bullish. They anticipate
good prices and believe that with good
prices American millers should do big
business in foreign markets this year.
Many of the party returned to the con-
tinent after the trip ended. James H.
Miller, voted the most popular miller in
the Northwestern millers' contest, is
there yet. studying flour making. On
the return trip on the City of Paris they
passed the Servia and the City Of Rich
mond in mid-ocean. The City of Rich
mond's cargo was on fire.

bric-a-brac of various kinds, and blood
flowed in all directions. Officer Nor
rissy appeared upon the scene and they
started to do him up, but couple of
other policemen came to his assistance
and the five bleeding belligerentS were
landed in the lookup, where their
wounds were dressed by DR.. Gibson.
A close examination of Ryan developed
a Star-shaped wound on the top of his
utdu NulCh Hdu oeeI eAeCuCeu ny Ildln-
mond with a beer bottle and various
other unique devices on his face and
scalp. Grant was badly cut along the
cheek and on the hand, and the others
all had their countenances more or less
gashed and bruised. Grant. the saloon
Keeper, was released upon s25 bail,
and the others, who are all laborers,
were locked up to await an examina-

Some Facts Briefly Stated Con-
corning This Mammoth Organ
iZation.
The Y. P. S. c. E. convention, which
will meet in Minneapolis next month.
is attracting good deal of attention all
over the country. In the current num-
Der of Frank Leslie's Illustrated News
paper there is long illustrated article
on the convention. Among the illustra
tions are photographs of Rev. f. E.
Clark, founder of the society, and j. w.
Baer, the present secretary. This ar
ticle SAYS:
The committee of '91," which is the
committee on arrangements, is com
posed of five st. Paul and ten Mime
apoliS gentlemen. They are recon-
structing the interior of the Minaeapo-
lis industrial exposition building for
convention purposes. Its seating Ca
pacity will be 11.000, including the
space reserved for grand chorus of
1000 voices. The standing room will
accommodate 1000 or 1000 additional.
The acoustic properties will be of
high order, and every person will be
enabled to hear the speakers. A COM
plete system for the entertainment of
this vast army of guests has been per-
fected. Minneapolis naturally will do
the greater part of the entertaining. as
the convention hall is located but
short distance from the center of the
city.
Few beside the members of the Y. P.
5. G. E. appreciate the magnitude of
this organization. 1t is only ten years
old. The first Y. p. IS. G. E. society was
organized in Williston church, Portland,
Me-, by the pastor, Rev. f. f. Clarke.
Other societies quickly followed, the
first proving such a success. and when
the Willston church celebrated its first
anniversary there was total member
ship in the different churches of Port
land of 4S1. Since then the growth has
been as follows: In 1888, 2,S70; in 1884,
S,905; in 1885. 10,964; in 1886, $4,000; in
1887, 10000; in 1888, 100000; in 1889,
100000; and in 1890, go, 600 members.
The figures as compiled by the general
secretary during the first week in May
this year, show a!memberShip close upon
100000.
The Presbyterians are most largely
represented in the society, withe $500
societies. The CongregationalstS have
5000 societies. The Baptists and Metho-
dists come next with $500 and 1900 re-
spectively. Some 20, Representatives
of these societies must be entertained
in Minneapolis next month. The COM
mittee wish to make it definitely known
that the headquarters during the con-
ventlon will be as they are now, on the
ground floor of the New York Life

erich won his libel suit. But he had
a close call and it was only on a com
promise that verdict was returned III
his favor at all. At 9:20 O'Clock yester-
day morning the jury informed Judge
Smith that they had agreed. By the
time the iurymen had taken their seats
in the box there was large crowd OF
interested spectators present.
AS Clerk Alger read the verdict many
eXclamationS of surprise were heard. as
all felt sure verdict in favor OF the
Tribune had been reached. The YER
dict was IN favor of the plaintiff giving
him $500.
One of the jurymen stated afterwards
that the result was very much of COM
promise. The reasons given were that
they did not feel like going absolutely
against erich, thereby possibly expos
ing him to the risk of new case from
the Insurance company. Another rea-
son was shat they did not like to accuse
an innocent man of arson and nave
him run his chances of going to
the pen" with large family depend
ing upon him for support. The first
ballot taken resulted in eight for Crlch
and four for the Tribune; the second
ballot, 81, 800 for erich and five for al
lowing him 81. Matters reinalneu tIldu
way until o'clock yesterday morning
when the vote showed eight Tor S34O
and four for 81, i'll favor of erich. Final
ly a compromise was effected by allow
ing HIM $500. The defendant will prob
ably make motion for new trial.
An order was issued yesterday dis
missing Crich and Griffin from the
police force. Nearly all the afternoon
The two officers were clOseted with
Mayor Winston and Supt. Henderson,
but the outcome of the conference was
not made public beyond the dismissal.
There is a bare possibility that the
chief may take action in the case. The
mayor was disinclined to discuss the
matter. He merely stated that he found
sufficient reason for relieving the police
department of the service of the two
officers. 1t is understood that several
more heads will fall, partially because OF
developments in this case.

been duly licensed, ,collared and tagged.
Yesterday Slim swooped down OH the
dog and ruthlessly dragged him off to
the wagon, paying no attention what
ever to his insignia; and the owner, who
appeared upon the scene about this
time, objected. Thereupon Slim turned
upon MIR. Hagan and personal encoun-
ter ensued. Hagan charges Slim with

Settled.
The injunction suit of Charles Shiebe
and number other farmers residing at
Medicine Lake Park against the board
of county commissioners, Jacob Barge
and thirty petitioners, to prevent the
incorporation of the village of Mime
apoliS Park came up yesterday morn
ing before Judge Hooker. A large
number of interested farmers were
present. The claim is made by the resi-
dents that they do not want the Park to
be made village.
Judge Hooker held that the district
court could not order the injunction for
the residents against the board of COM
missloners, but that they must proceed
by writ of certiorari, which practically
means an amended complaint. This
mode of procedure will be tried.

We shall make a cut on the present

night by hanging himself with a wire
in the cellarway of the house. Deceased
formerly worked as teamster, but for
some years he has done nothing. He
was sixty eight years of age, and of late
has been in such poor health that he
regarded himself as chronic invalid.
He has repeatedly threatened to take
his own life, and it is thought he was a
little weak mentally. The body was
found by the son at z o'clock yesterday
morning hanging by wire from the
stairs leading to the cellar, and near
the foot of the stairs lay razor, which
Schopp probably intended to use in case
the wire failed. There will be no inquest
