AL. sAwYER's FUNERAL.
Simplicity and Impressiveness
Marked the Closing Ceremony


Marked the Closing Ceremony
OF Life.
The funeral services that marked the
departure from earth of A. j. Sawyer
were in keeping with the life of the
man--unostentatious but impressive.
He moved through life without noise,
but he left his mark upen the commu-
nifty in which he lived. While alive he
passed his days amid scenes of the
greatest excitement-the excitement of
the speculative markets of the greatest
speculative nation on earth; in death
his body was removed from sight of
men amid the most solemn silence. The
contrast between life and death could
not have been greater.
i he chamber of commerce adjourned
at noon, and the members OF the cham
Der proceeded to the residence of the
deceased. Tweuty-sixth street and Park
avenue, in a body. By Q o'clock, the
hour set for the funeral, the house was
filled with friends and relatives of the
dead man. A large delegation came
from Duluth, where Mr.. Sawyer lived
many years, and where he was highly
esteemed. Rev. M. b. Shutter con-
Quoted the funeral services. He made
few words OH the life OF the departed
and comments on those traits of his
character that endeared him to his bus
mess associates and all who knew him.
AT little after 2:30 the procession of
carriages left the house for Lakewood
cemetery. Following the hearSe came
the carriage containing Rev. DR.. Shut
ter and minister from Duluth. Mr..
SaWyer's old pastor. The second and
third carriages carried the pail bearers,
Messrs. c. A. Pillsbury, F. H. Peavey,
f. l.. Greenleaf, E. j. Phelps, l.. S.
Brown, E. Garden, j. E. Glass and A. B.
Taylor. Then came Mrs. Sawyer's car
riage. and with her were B. j. Sawyer,
and Mr.. and Mrs. f. j. Sawyer. Mr..
and Mrs. Weld and family came
Glass and family Mrs. F. II.
Peavey and family and George S. Bar
NUN, of Duluth, Mr.. and Mrs. M. B.
Chambers and John Mcleod, and
Messrs. A. r. mcfarland, A NJ. Morri-
son, Ward Ames ana w. w. Davis, all
occupied carriages in the procession.
Eight vehicles conveyed the employees
in business and the servants of the
household.
The services at the cemetery were as
simple as those at the house. The body
will lie in the vault at Lakewood for a
time, and will probably be taken to
Lockport, n. Y, for burial later.
The room in which the body lay at
the house was literally filed with floral
offerings. They came from his friends
in the chamber of commerce, from BUSH
ness friends, from social friends and
from employees. All bespoke the high
place he held in the hearts of those who
knew him best.

One Of the Runaway's Vic
tins Still Lives.

The great fire which wiped the yards
of J. W. Day & Co.. at Twenty-fourth
avenue north and First street, out of
existence on May 81, 1891, is to be
thoroughly discussed before the district
court judges. On Wednesday j. W.
Day & Co. and fifty-four insurance COM
panies brought suit against the Il. G.
Akeley Lumber company to recover
e207, 134.31.
The complaint sets forth that the fire
was caused from the sawdust consumer
of the Akeley mill. The Akeley CON-
pany, the complaint alleges, should
have had the consumer in perfect re-
pair; also that it should be one from
which no sparks could escape. The
fifty-four insurance companies are in
terested because they have paid Day 81
Co. assurances amounting to $l26, 500.
Day u Co.'s real interest in the case is,
therefore, $50, 634.31.
Ii. G. Akeley d Co. do not think that
the complaint is sufficiently explicit.
The attorneys for the firm, Stratton d
Kellogg, accordingly filed a motion yes
terday asking that the complaint be
more thorough i'll statements. They
want to know the quantity, quality and
value of the lumber destroyed, and the
alleged defects in the machinery of the
Akeley mills specified. The motion
will be argued next Saturday.

the Faculty Last Night.

A Brilliant Reception Given by
the Faculty Last Night.

and members of the faculty acted
In the capacity of chaperones.
.ne compressed air chambers were
Visited, and the many intricate and
elaborate electrical and surgical ap-
paratuS in the various departments
were shown to the guests and their
uses explained. The parlors on the first
floor were tastefully decorated with
flowers, and in one of the alcoves be-
hind heavy curtains an orchestra dis
coursed music throughout the evening.
The institute has recently added several
other departments to its already large
list, among them bichloride of gold
sanitorium on Hennepln boulevard. It
was with view of showing to the peo-
pie of Minneapolis the magnitude of
the institution as whole that the re-
ception was held.
During the evening several addresses
were made by members of the faculty
and others. The facilities and equip
ment of the institute were explained

GOSSIP OF THE CURB.

A big, brawny man came rushing out
from the saloon opposite the Bljou thea
ter last night yelling police and murder
at the top of his voice. A little fellow
with Struggling beard and cast IN the
right optic came pell-mell after him,
and before the curb was reached had
mounted the big mans back like q cata-
mount. He fastened his fingers in the
big mans hair and began kicking
him vigorously in the fundament, at
the same time screaming like prize
pig in pain. A policeman pulled him
off and liberated the big man. lie ex-
planned that the little fellow had brut-
ally attacked him. while they were dis
cussing the merits and dement's of Col.
Glenn as lecturer. To avoid causing
any sadness in the little fellows home
he struck him on the head and then
ran away so as not to be called upon TO
strike him again. The policeman Or
dered them both to go home and the
big man limped up the street. ruefully
caressing the place that had been
kicked.

MIDNIGHT PROVIDERS.
Ehey Make Life Miserable for
Residents of the Eighth Ward.

Residents of the Eighth Ward.
The residents in the vicinity of Twen-
ty-eighth and Thirtieth streets and
Hennepin avenue are having their lives
made burdensome by burglars and
sneak thieves. Scarcely night passes
but an attempt is made to enter one or
more houses. much to the discomfort
and terror of the occupants. DR.. Rinker,
who resides at 3011 First avenue south,
was awakened Friday night by some
one who was attempting to force open
the lattice Of his bedroom window, and
on the same night Andrew Gessler
found it necessary to abandon his Seance
with SomnuS and chase away two mis-
creants who had succeeded in penetrat-
ing the classic interior of his kitchen.
Yesterday Alfred Ii. Knowles, travel
ing man who formerly conducted a
wholesale liquor establishment at "a
Washington avenue north, complained
to the police that strange men are con-
tinually prowling about his residence at
the corner of Twenty-eighth street and
Hennepin avenue. A number of bur-
glaries, he avows, have already been
accomplished In the neighborhood and

made on his place. 1nasmuch as he is

Supt- Hunt Says the Worlds Fair
800 GOO Fund Is All RIGHT

$lOO,OOO Funu rs All hlSnC.
Supt. l.. p. cHunts,Of the Minnesota
exhibit at the worlds fair, was in Min
neapoIis yesterday. He had just come
back from trip through the Northern
partof the state, and he returned feel
ing cheerful over the outlook for Min
nesota's showing at the big fair in Chi
cagO. He says that all of the counties
north of Minneapolis. with. the excep-
ton of Pine amt Cook, have organized
and have contributed their quota to the
100000 fund wanted by the commits
Sieners for the fair. He will go to Pine
county in few days, and Cook Will be
taken care of without a personal VISIT
from him. He says that sixty of the
counties have already contributed, or
have been organized, SO that there is no
question about their contributions. This
is the 70 per cent that the commission
agreed to see in line before beginning
any actual work toward preparing the
Minnesota exhibit. He sees no reason
now why the commission should longer
delay getting down to actual work. He
thinks that meeting of the commission
will be held some time next week, prob
ably Thursday, before which time Gov.
Merriam is expected to name sue
cessor to M. B. Harrison, of Duluth.
He says that the people of Duluth have
recommended that Col. Baldwin be ap-
pointed to the vacancy on the commits

The Telegram objects.

Some of the daily papers persist in
trying to name the new Southside high
school, and talk about it being a grace
full tripute to a man who was a highly
respected and public spirited citizen to
christen it 1.-The Wilson," says the
South Minneapolis Telegram. The
public and private life of the late E. M.
Wilson entitle his memory to grateful
recognition. and Southsiders appreciate
the fact full well. But SouthSiders do
not want the identity Of the South high
school swallowed up in any name. Let
it be known as the South high school.
We have canvassed the matter con-
siderably, and are assured that no other
name is wanted by Southsiders.

ST. ANTHONY lNTERURBAN.

Come This Summer.
There is fair prospect for the build
ing of another interurban electric line
the coming summer -one by way Of st.
Anthony park. Some time ago Mr..
Lowry declared that the street railway
company would build no more lines this
year unless the parties interested were
willing to come forward and advance
the money. That set the st. Anthony
Park people to huStling, for
they were determined to have
a line. They appointed the follow
ing committee to solicit subscriptions:
A. K. McGill, st. Anthony Park, chair
man; q. II. Pratt, Minneapolis; f. q.
James, Minneapolis; B.Jett, st. Paul;
w. r, McMurran, St. Paul; P. j. Ken
nedy, St. Anthony Park, and A. G.
Brace of the same place. The commit
tee has already secured subscriptions
for $4,000, and has hopes of securing
the remainder of the necessary $4,000
before it is time to begin the work of
construction. There is talk of couple
more interurban lines-one by way of
Fort Smelling and one down Lake street
and across the Lake street bridge. In
view of the declaration made by Mr..
Lowry recently, these other lines are
decidedly nebulouS as yet.

Chain of Difficulties Broken.
W. II. Truesdale, rec eiver for the st.
Louis road, appeared before Judge
Lochren yesterday and asked permits
sion to build two new engines and pay
81. 600 interest on the Pacific extension
mortgage. Permission was granted.
Within a week the receiver will ask
nermission to build double track from
Kenwood to Hopkins. A double track
is made necessary by the extensive
traffic in summer. The matter of paying
theinterest on mortgages held by Henry
Seibert has been bone of contention
ever since the st. Louis road went into
the hands of a receiver. Seibert con-
tends that he is the only one entitled to
the proceeds of the railroad until the
other bondholders foreclose. They do
not want to foreclose, because their
bonds are now drawing Z per cent. In
granting the motion for the payment OF
interest yesterday, Judge Lochren has
decided against Seibert.

LOOKING FOR A TRUST.
One of the Government Agents
Investigating in Minneapolis.

Charles FL. Horton, an agent Of the
government of the United States, is in
Minneapolis looking up evidence against
the cordage trust. He arrived yester-
day morning and spent most of the day
with District Attorney Hay. He came
here from Chicago. He has been inves-
tigating the operations of the trust in
that city for some time all on the quiet.
TIE government hoped. to keep the in
vestigation a secret, but the fact that
Horton was at work leaked out while
he was in Chicago. Minneapolis is one
of the biggest, if not the biggest, mar
ket for Irvine in the country, and the
government expects to learn good deal
about the trust in this city. Just what
the government already knows is mere
ly a matter of conjecture. Mr.. Horton
will not talk. Whatever information
Mr.. Horton succeeds in getting will be
laid before some of the federal grand
luries in the East. The government is
proceeding to prosecute the cordage
trust on the same lines that were fol-
lowed in the war on the whisky trust.
