Brown May Have to Serve.

The application of Jonas f. Brown to
withdraw from the bond of County
Treasurer Peterson has occasioned con-
siderable talk among the friends of
both. Brown denies that he wants to
withdraw because Peterson does not
deposit sufficient amount of the coun-
ty's money with the City bank. He says
he wants to relieve himself of the re-
sponsibllity because he is getting too
old to look after such matters. Peter
sons friends, however, maintain that
the deposit theory explains the situa-
ton.
Will the county commissioners release
Brown? The. only way he can be re-
leased is for Petersen to request it, pro-
videG the board is friendly to him.
Brown cannot be legally released
unless Peterson produces bondsman
to take his place. or the commissioners
declare the office of county treasurer
vacant. In all probability Peterson will
find another bondsman. When seen
Yesterday. however, Peterson said ne
hadn't given the matter any thought

Again Around st. Vincent.
The smuggling of Chinamen,a as stated
in the GLOBE some time ago, across the
line near ST. Vincent and Neche, seems
to be increasing instead of diminishing.
The United States authorities at those
points, however, are not idle, and from
all reports have succeeded in arresting
anumber of the Celestial5 and are send
ing them back again.. James A. Bid
derman, young attorney OF this city,
leaves for St. Vincent this afternoon 10

arrested at st. Vincent for aiding his
countrymen to cross the border into the
United States. John Lee and Wing
Lun, two influential and wealthy China
men living in Chicago, are in the city,
and engaged Mr.. Bidderman yesterday
to go to st. Vincent and defend Sam
Lee. This latter mouse eater is the
brother Of John Lee, and, it appears,
has been forwarding Cinnamon to him
at Chicago. 1t is also thought that the
Chicago men are in the opium business,
and receive their supplies from the
Cinnamon who are Struggled across the
line, and who carry large quantities Of
the extract over with them concealed in
their clothes. How many of them stop
off here it is hard to ascertain, though
it is pretty certain that the Chinese
population is increasing very rapidly.

The Henry Case.

the case of William F. Henry was re-
sumed before Judge Nelson yesterday,
and the evidence all taken by o'clock,
when court adjourned. This morning
the jury will be instructed. Henry was
on the stand yesterday forenoon. His
testimony was given very straightfor-
wardly. He denied each and every allie
CATION made by Howard, and was sue
cessful in giving an excellent account
of himself while assistant postmaster
Mis-. Henry, his mother, was also on
the stand. Her testimony was very
damaging to several statements made
by the prosecution. Senator F. B. Dough-
erty, ex-Mayor John B. Sutphin, John
q. Brown, a well-known capitalist, and
Samuel A. Phillips, formerly one of the
editors of the Duluth Tribune, testified
to Henry's good character. Attorney
E. A. Campbeli's address to the jury
was an effective one. Henry's friends
are confident that he will be exonerated
from all suspicion by the verdict.

RobbinsdaIe Street Cars.

AS soon as the weather will permit
work will be commenced on the extern
sion of the North side street railway,
which will connect it with the Penn
avenue line of the Minneapolis street
railway system. The North side street
railway is the one that brings in the
residents of Robbinsdale. At present
it extends only to the city limits. The
residents of that section have to walk
about half mile to the Penn avenue
line. When the North side line was
built Thirty-second avenue north was
not graded and the line could come no
further than the city limits. That OBJ
stacle has been removed now. COmmu-
tation tickets will be sold to the resi-
dents of Robbinsdale and will be hon
ored on the Lowry lines. The fare from
Robbinsdale to the city will be six cents
to the holders of these tickets.

Meeting ana Banquet OF Inc
Loyal Legion COmmandery.
There was gathering of soldierly-
| looking and brilliant men in the main
dining room of the Guaranty Loan

and substantial, the cigars fragrant and
the banqueters correspondingly joyous.
| The banquet was presided over by

teers.
After the menu had been thoroughly
discussed and the cigars passed
around, Capt. William B. Leach read
the paper of the evening. 1t was en-
titled The Army Of the Potomac" and
proved very interesting. 1t recounted
the achievements OF CndC brave army
during the terrible struggle between
the North and the South, and gave
short but vivid descriptions of certain
of the most interesting battles. The
paper was scholarly one, and Capt.
Leach read it in a mastery man
ner. A unanimous vote of thanks was
accorded him when he concluded.
Previous to the beginning of the ban
quet a business meeting was held. The
secretary read his report, showing the
total membership of the Loyal Legion

THE EXPERT FoRGERs.
Russell and Webster VIII Have
Their Trial Today.

The two forgerS, James Russell and
T. c. Webster, arrested Monday night
by Inspectors Hoy and Hankinson and
Officer REVERE, were brought into the
municipal court yesterday morning fol
preliminary examination. The state,
however, desired to secure more evil
dence against them, so the cases were
continued until this afternoon at 2
O'Clock. Inspectors Hoy ana Hankinson
are very much elated over their capture,
for in Russell they have one of the
smoothest crooks in the country. There
is still another one Of the gang at large,
and an effort is now being made to find
him. Russell is from New York, and is
known as all expert forger and mail
box thief. 1t has developed that he
was the one who robbed the mail box
on upper Hennepin avenue last week !;
also the one who, by means of crooked
wire, fished out a letter belonging to
Aid. Love, some time ago. This letter
contained check for So and Russell
deftly raised it to $500. He is the "main
guy" as Inspector Hoy termed him,
and does all the fine work, while Web
ster is used as capper and to pass the
checks.
Seven years ago Webster was en-
ployed as bartender at the Columbia,
| and has been using his acquaintance
with men and the city to good advan-
| tage. The two worthless were here last
summer, and left for the East again,

Killed and Wounded,

CETTINJE, Montenegro, March s.
At Kolaschin, town on the frontier of
Albania, forty Albanians who were
escorting a wedding procession met a
number of Montenegrins. AS the
Montenegrins were passing the wedding
party several of the Albanians who
were armed with rifles fired feu de
joie. Unfortunately one of the weapons
had been unwittingly loaded with ball
cartridge, and one of the Montenegrins
was shot. Though it was clearly
apparent that the shooting was
entirely accidental, the comrades
of the wounded man were Infatuated.
They were armed, and without hesita-
ton they poured volley into the we'd
ding party, killing and wounding nine
teen of them. The dispatch does not
state the fate of the bride and groom.

ment, and 1t is thought that further

Recovered His Cash.
The proprietor of Hobbs lodging
house, at % Washington avenue north,
and his erstwhile clerk, have got them
selves into trouble. About week ago
Patrick Brannigan came down from the
woods with a pocket full of money. He
engaged room at the Hobbs house,
and last Thursday concluded to put
his money and valuables in safe place
for fear of being robbed. He gave the
lodging house clerk his pocketbook,
containing $275 in cash and lot of
valuable papers. He also turned over
his gold watch, and the clerk assured
him that everything would be as safe
with him as with the best bank in the
world.
Several nights later the money draw
er, in which Brannigan's valuables
were kept, was broken into and robbed
of everything it contained. Brannigan
thought there was something queer
about the robbery ami reported the
matter to the police. The result was
that the proprietor and the clerk were
brought before the superintendent of
police yesterday afternoon. Who stole
the money does not appear. but before
the superintendent of police had fin

TIM BYRNEs' CASE.
The Satisfactions May Yet Be De-

Tim Byrnes' case IN the district court
is not settled yet-that is the case
against Byrnes, E. S. Corser and the
Bell Investment company brought by
Mrs. Goodrich. AS stated in the pa
pers yesterday morning, Judge Smith
found for the defendants on the plea
that Byrnes bad forged the satisfactions.
The judge could NOT see that Byrnes
had been guilty of forgery. He did not
think that the insertion of the lot num-
bers after the satisfactions had been
signed constituted forgery under the
law. He did say, however, that Byrnes
had been guilty of fraud, and that Mrs.
Goodrich had been victimiZed. The
point upon which decision remains to
be made is whether the satisfactions,
when presented to Corser and to the
Bell Inves tment company, were not in

NEW ORLEANS LYNCHING.
Suit to Be Begun for Large Sum
of Money.

NEW ORLEANS, March S.-A new and
unexpected chapter in the history OF
the lynching of the Italians and the
Hennessey assassination has developed.
A suit will be filed in the United States
court against the city this week by the
families OF the Italians who were never
naturalzed for damages. The claims
will vary from $50, 900 to $40, 900, and the
total will amount to between S150,000
and 100000.
No one of the families of those who
were naturaliZed is included in the
claim, which is against the city. Judge
Sambola, one of the best-known citi-
zens of the state, is bringing the suit.
1t is brought to prevent prescription.
The heirs of the mobbed Italians have a
claim against the government already,
but it is said that it will be worthless
unless suit is brought against the city
within one year after the occurrence.
The year has almost expired.

is allowed in law. 1t is possible for pa,
pers such as these satisfactiOns to be
in such condition as to indicate that
something is wrong with them-that
there has been some tampering with
them after execution. That point will
be argued and submitted to the court.
The satisfactions may be declared void
