THE SINGLE TAXITEs.

More Correspondence From Min
listers on the Causes of Poverty.
At the meeting of the Single Tax
league last evening. some more CORE
spOndence was received from the clergy
in reply to the request of the league
that the ministers should speak upon
the causes OF poverty from their pulpits.
Rev. Thomas McClary and j. j. Faude
wrote that they would comply with the
leagues request at an early date. Rev.
\. j. Graham wrote: Il commend your
missionary zeal i'll sending out requests
to the clergy to preach upon the causes
OF poverty. Still, you have injured your
cause by unjust insinuatiOnS against
the clergy, who are almost invari-
ably the friends of the poor"
Rev. Father Byrne, of the Immacu-
Late Conception church. wrote quite
lengthy letter in a pleasant vein. lie
explained his rather sharp retOrt to See
rotary EricksOn'S letter, which could
only be construed. he thought, to mean
that the clergy have no sympathy for
the toiling poor, or, if they have, are
too cOWardly TO express 1t by advocating
single UaX-aS he would allow no one to
cast such an lmputatlOn. and aid not
think such Il reflection was deserved by
most of the clergy. He thinks the APP
plicatiOn of the single tax theory in
practice would be the most radical
measure since the day that Adam and
Eve were cast out of the terrestrial
paradise. While he does not
feel justified in cOndemning
theory which seems to promise
so much good, albeit by the most reYo
lutionary of tax laws, he does not feel
justified in approving it to the extent of
declaring himself its disciple or its pro-
moter, in view of the colossal objections
to it. He, however. promises that he
will study the question further. A COM
munic9tion was also received from {.
Ford, superintendent of public schools

tablish a college for prOmulgating the

The victim notified the police of the
robbery at the time. MOlis was ar

Chief Rnnge's investigation of the
charges made against two fire captains
by Pipeman Sam Lockhart. of Engine
Company No. 10 was completed yester-
day at fire headquarters behind closed
doors. Lockhart charged that the cap
tains. being friends of eX-Chief Stetson,
were slow in Obeying orders at the
Lumber Exchange fire, and that this
went far toward explaining the poor
work of the department.. The investi-
CATION was held in the chiefs private
office and the testimony was taken
down IN shorthand. Lockhart was on
the stand until after IL o'clock. He
reiterated his charges, but does not
seem able to prove them. They are
founded largely upon suspicion. it is
said. and the investigation is. therefore.
likely to 20 hard with him. Unless he
can make the charges stick, his official
head will come off close behind the ears.
While the investigation is primarily for
the purpose of verifying or disproving
Lockhart's charges, the management of
the fire will also be looked into. as the
testimony will bear directly upon it.
Chief Runge does not know how many
days viii be employed i'll the investiga-
ton, but it will probably last all week.

THE RETAIL GRoCERs.
Important Questions Relating to
the Trade Discussed.

the Trade Discussed.
At largely attended meeting of the
Retail Grocers' association last night at
ODD Fifth avenue south, five questions
important to the trade were considered.
First, as to peddlers, the association de
Gliding that the So license fee was in
sufficient to protect hOuseholders from
dishonest house-tO-house dealers, and to
establish the equities between the legit-
innate. taXpaying dealer and the vaga-
bond broker. \ committee of seven
was appointed properly to present this
matter to the common council.
The second question was quickly dis
posed of, the association agreeing by
unanimous vote TO sell package cOffees
in the future at uniform price of four
cents per pound above the wholesale
list or card price. The old question OF
the -four agreement was a third topic
for discussion, which resulted in the
appointment OF a committee of seven to
present to the local flour association a
series Of resolutions emOOdying the
thought that the association demanded
that statesmen and deliverymen of
the millerS must not deliver
-four to any merchant whatsoever
who did not possess one OF the Retail
GrOceTs' association cards. The sugar
card, it was decided. was working adj
mirably. but it was thought best to
appoint a committee to secure the sig
natures of those grOcers who had not
yet signed the agreement.
Then the Oil question was taken up.
and while there was unanimity of Opin-
ton in favor OF charging at retail 10
cents per gallon. it finally was decided
to leave this matter also to committee
with power to act. and to give to an
other committee power to commit the
association to a favorable voice ON the
oil inspection bill now pending before
senate committee.

The council committee on paving met
yesterday afternoon and informally dis
cussed the curb and gutter question.
There was nothing for the committee TO
take action upon. The mayors veto
must go to the council first Of all. Then
the matter will be referred back to the
committee again. The paving commit

hurst people. They will, it is said, en-
deavOr to have the contracts. with the
exception of 1000 feet of natural stone,
let to NyvalI x Westlund at 80 cents.
They don't want to readvertise Tor bids.
as that would give Parkhursta chance.It
is just possible, however, that they may
be compelled to readvertiSe, as the
mayor Is understOO to believe that
there is no other way to properly
straighJen out the tangle. Nothing can
be done until the council meets next
Friday.

not to order any new lights until spring.

not give it power to contract for the re-

man, came to Minneapolis from Kansas
City Sunday and spent all that day.

her she was in pitiable condition,
alone, i'll with fever, no friends near
her.
Nanderburg works for the Missouri
Pacific railroad. with headquarters in
Kansas City. When he went to Kansas
City he left his wife in Minneapolis at
1921 Johnson street northeast. \ few
days ago she was turned out of the
house by her landlord for nom
payment of rent, and as her
seven weeks and had not sent
her a great deal of money. she was at
her ropes end. She stored her furniture
and applied to the poor department for
aid until she could hear from her huS-
band. The department promised to
take care of her, and she was to come
back yesterday morning. Sunday
Nanderburg arrived from Kansas City
ana found his home empty and his wife
gone. None OF the ueighbOrS could tell
what had become of her. and so he ap-
piled to the police. From them he
learned Of the misfortune. but nobody
could give him her address. Yesterday
it was found that she was sick with a
fever at the European hotel. She was
in a room without fire, and had probably
been lnsufficiently fed for several days.
When she had been located, Wander
burg could not be found. He had gone
to st. Paul to look for his wife. Yes
terday afternoon. however. he returned
and was at once conducted to her. He
will now care for her. She is in a crit
zeal condition from fever. the result, it
IS believed, Of exposure and hunger.
