After the reading Of the journal and a
brief but Intellectual petition by the chap
lain, several protests from various railroad
employees bro:herhoods and clubs were re-
ceived and filed.
Mr.. Ringwald asked that Mr.. Bearings
bills be placed in general orders and strick-
en- from the calendar, but his request was
refused by a vote of 3 to II. The failure of
this move on Mr.. Ringwald's part demon
strated that the house was inclined to favor
Mr.. Bearings bills, and such being the case
all opposition to the bills in the house
ceased, and if they are to be fought over it
will be in the senate.
The bill introduced by Mr.. Barrett is to
authorize the railroad ard warehouse conf

measures used in grain elevators, mills and
other places where grain is weighed in this

ing the adjustment made by the expert or
refusing him free access shall be liable to a
fine of $500 for each offense. The salary of
the expert is to be fixed by the railroad
commissioners and paid out Of the grain

SENATE.

When the senate began its session Senator
Donnelly desired to introduce some bills,
and moved to suspend the special order
until IL o'clock. The motion was lost bv a
vote of 80 to 49,
The special order was then continued,
the question being upon the substitute of
Senator Sevatson, making the interest 6 and
7 per cent and leaving the usury law as it
now exists.
When the special order was taken up
again the first question was upon the mo-
ton Of Senator Sevatson to reconsider the
vote on the first section OF S. F. No. 1.
The vote was then taken. and the motion
was lost by vote Of % to q,
The vote then came upon the amendment
of Senator Davis, and it went down by
vote OF 20 to 80.
There were several other amendments
and the main questions to be voted upon
yet under the previous question, but the
senate adjourned without taking the votes.
The consideration OF the question will be
continued this morning AT 10 o'clock, when
voting under the previous question will
proceed until the main question is dis
posed OF. Butts the report to the senate will
still be open to discussion and amendment
the question will probably take up the
whole day.
The first business of the morning session
was the hearing OF large number Of petl-
tons, the most important being one urging.
the house to raise the age of consent.
Mr.. Smith offered resolution which
was passed requiring the court house COM
missioners Of Hennepin to furnish to the
chairman of the Hennepin delegation
copies OF all contracts and papers relating
to the new court house.

ACCUMULATION or WEALTH,
Some Of the Surprises That kttsnd the Settles

Some Of the Surprises That 1ttsnd the Settles
ment Of Estates.
The general surprise thas the late
MIR. fayerweather, a man of whom
little was known outside of very
limited personal circle, should turn
out to have been the possessor of mill
Eons emphasizes the difficulty, says
the New York Star, of obtaining
knowledge regarding the real extent
or peoples means. Published lists of
mlllionaires are proverbially unrelia-
BILE, not only from the inaccuracy of
the estimates given, but from the
omission of the large and increasing
class of what may be- termed "silent
millionaires." This is not strange,
Tor even the mercantile agencies.
whose business it is to- rate the credit
of men engaged in business, do not
pretend to give any accurate figures
on private wealth not actually employ
ed as capital in trade. The way the
general public, and even the financial
world, can be mistaken about men of
wealth is sometimes strik ingly illus
trated. The late Moses Taylor was
supposed in his lifetime to. be worth
from 5000, 900 to $4,000, OOO4 When
he died his estate was worth $25, OOO,-
600 or more. On the other hand, one
OF the Boston Thayers was believed
to possess score or more of millions.
Yet it is stated that he left behind him
wealth which, though large; was COM
paratlvely much below what had. been
credited to him.
The ':silent millionaires'' are indeed
difficult to track. They are either
people who have inherited wealth and
keep out of business, or men who,
though in business, keep on the beaten
track and avoid public or commercial
prominence. Nearly every Wall
street broker or banker and real-estate
people could, if they would, furnish
long lists of such individuals, whose
very names are not known to the
public at large. Another class whose
knowledge of the facts about peoples
real means are extraordinary are bank
and trust company officers and the
managers of safe-deposit vaults. But
such knowledge is in these quarters
regarded as a professional secret and
the ''silent millionaires' go on clip
ping their coupons, collecting their
rents. and, as a rule, living quietly
and saving their incomes. The
number of New York ladies whose
wealth counts up into the seven figures
is also surprising. There are, accord
ing to the estimate of careful obsery-
er, over 100 women in New York worth
in their own right $1,000, 900 or more,
and some of them show double figures
in the million column too. AS this
wealth is mainly inherited, it's possess
ors do not attract public attention I'M
less their husbands happen to attain
prominence Of some kind.

But I sing of another.

SENATE

A large number of bills, mostly local.
were passed, and the usual grist of new
ones was introduced.
Senator Sanborn called up his pending
motion Of Tuesday to recall from the house
the house bill passed by the senate making
some changes in the Duluth charter in re-
spect to water works. Senator Daughertv
opposed the motion, accusing Senator San
born Of acting on the floor Of the senate as
the attorney for the corporation owning
the Duluth water works. Senator Sanborn
promptly called him to order, and the state
ment was retracted by the Duluth senator
The motion, however, did not prevail, and
the bill will go to the governor.
The senate voted to reconsider the vote to
amend the report of the comm ittee Of the
whole on the Itasca county bill. The re-
port was then amended by vote of IS to
Is and the bill in its original form recom-
mended to pass.
On motion Of Senator Sanborn the bill
appropriating money Tor a monument to
the First Minnesota at Gettysburg was re-
called from the finance committee and
placed upon general orders.
Senator Dedon called up his resolution
authorizing the labor and public lands
committees to employ clerk at a compen-
sation Of SIS per day. and it was passed.

dealers are first rendered unrecogniz-
able. If the animal has long hair. he
is clipped. if he is black and white, the
stealer blackens him all over with a dye
mixture that holds its color for several
weeks. Short haired dogs have their

sell these dogs may be frequently seen
in the Champs Elysees, the Bots de
Boulogne or in the public gardens, lead
ing five or six animals at a time. Other
dealers make their trades at the dog

Antoinette de Bourbon. the mother

One example of the discipline to which
she subjected the young Guises indicates
that had there been more mothers like
her in her class there would have been
less of ruthless extravaganza on the
part Of the royalty and nobility of
France.
The young mobiles were out hunting,
and rode through fields which had been
sown with corn. The duchess heard of

THE decision rendered by the
eupr me court in the Mcknight
babess corpus case will without doubt
commend itself to the thinking peo-
pie Of the stEte without regard to politi
cal OF local prejudices. The opinion
rendered goes straight to the fact that
however much Judge MeHstton "

the publication in question, having
ascertained from the accused hat he
wrote the article and caused its publi-
cation. he had no right to urge the
question rs to the source Of the editors

vacated all right to establish a Ease of
contempt based upon the publication,
