WORLDS FAIR LOAN.
Chicago People Feel Hopeful or
Ultimate Triumph.

WA sHINGToN, July 21.-The con-
ferrees on the sundry civil bill, which
contains the worlds fair appropriation
of S5.OOO,OOO. began their labors on
the points of differenc between the two
houses today. Director General Davis.
Judge Altgeld. Democratic candidate
for governor for Illinois, and Senator
Palmer visited Representative Holman
/ and other members of the committee on
appropriations before the conference
this morning and endeayored to secure
their support of the appropriation.
Sc Ex-COngressman Frank I4awler said
it does not make any difference what
the conference do; there is sufficient
numbur OF votes secured in the house
to make certain final concurrence in the
appropriation.
The conference accomplished nothing
and adjourned to meet tomorrow even
ing.
1t seems to be almost certain that the
house conference will report to the
house against concurring in the senate
amendment and will fight government
appropriation for the fair with vigOr.
Mr.. Holman has relaxed nothing in his
opposition and has the earnest support
of Gov. Sayers. Representative Bling
ham. of Pennsylvania, the minority
member, is favorable to the appropri-
alton.
Some Southern men, in explanation
of their opposition to the appropriation,
say that the sub-treaSury people will
urge with great force among their con-
stitnents the argument that the govern
ment has become partner in this great
fair enterprise, but that whenever the
farmer wants the government to 20
into partnership with him constitu-
tional objections are raised.

TURNED THE TABLES.
Minneapolis to the Front the Sec
Ond DaY of Tennis.

Yesterday, the second day of the
Northwestern tennis tournament at
Hotel st. Louis. Minnetonka, was
marked by more enthusiasm. better
playing and success of the Minneapolis
men. The day was insufferaDly hot, but
the young men bore up we'll under it and
did good work.
The feature of the second day of the
tournament was the playing of the Mill
neapolis men. The contests the first
oils competitors, and the Chicago men
won, with one exception. Yesterday it
was all the other way. The Minneap
oils boys showed up in fine form. The
match between Wallace, of Mime
apolis, and Nicely, of Chicago, was
one of the good ones. The match of the
day. though. was that between Hale, of
Minneapolis. and E. Wrenn, of Chicago.
Wrenn was looked upon as one Of the
Chicago cracks, perhaps as the best of
them, and his defeat at the hands of
Hale, not the best Minneapolis player.
was surprise. Wrenn played the bet
and his powers of endurance won the
match. Following are the results of the
days playing:

mo, thanks" replied Peterson, II
guess know what it is"
Then ensued an awkward pause
which was broken by the city attorney
who. addressing Peterson, said:
MIR. Buxton Is here ready to take his
position. Are you willing he should
do so?''
II am" replied the now ex-treasurer.
and suiting his actions to his words he
TOOK step out of his office. Some few
g0od-humOred jokes were then passed
around, and the whole affair was thus
practically ended.
Immediately after the writ had been
served and Peterson had vacated his
office, Judge Rea was questioned by
GLOBE representative and asked what
would be the next step taken ON behalf
of his client.
Judge Rea, 'but to await the action of
Gov. Merriam in appointing a COM
missioner to investigate the charges
made. We feel perfectly confident
or being able to vindicate Peterson
whenever an opportunity is given by
the appointment of commissioner by
the governor. Every consideration of
justice and fair play demands that the
commissioner be at once appointed, and
Mr.. PETERSON allowed to put in de-
Tense. We raised the legal Ques-
ton in the supreme court under
a firm conviction that the law under
which Gov. Merriam acted was uncon-
stltutional. Now the act has been sus-
tanned 10y the supreme court. We have
long since demanded hearing, and we
expect 1T at an early day."
"Personally." added Judge Rea, II
am convinced Peterson has never been
guilty of any intentional violation of
the law during his term of office"
While Oh this Peterson matter, it IS
proper to say that Judge Rea has es-
fectually disposed of the carpings of
County Commissioner Coburn because
Peterson did not pay July interest on
court house bonds. Coburn said it was
not the duty of the county commission
ers to order the payment of the interest.
Judge Rea quotes from the statutes to
prove that COburn does not know what
he is talking about.

These is no doubt that the Home for

tised institutions in the city aside from
workhouse and Bethany Home. All this
thas been made possible by the peculiar
lmpreSSariO methods of the astute Man.
ager and Superintendent Rev. j. III.
Bowker. The latest event in the his
tory of this benevolent institution is the
charge of the matron of the home.
She has come to the conclusion that mat
ers between her and Rev. Bowker must
come to an issue, and either the board
OF directors must request and insist on
his resignation or else accept hers. All
things have not gone we'll with the
matron and the ecclesiastical manager.
and. though no open rupture has mani
tested itself until now, the feeling has
been anything but lovely.
1t is understood that the matron pre-
ferred charges of very serious nature
against Rev. BOwker to tine board of
health. AT any rate, the commissioner
of health sent one of his medical in
spectors to the home yesterday and he
Will make his report today. The exact
nature VI III Is UOJ kIlOWU. II is uDUer-
stood. however. that the matron charged
the superintendent with gross neglect
and with conducting the home
without any thought of its sanitary
condition. 1t is said that the place has
been conducted in such slip-shod and
negligent fashion that vermin have
made their appearance in the wards
where the children are kept, and even
infest their clothing. The matron also
charges, it is said, that the vermin were
so thick that her clothing became cov-
cred with them.
DR.. Kelly was seen last night and
questioned regarding the matter. He
stated that he could give no definite in
formation concerning 1t. for he had not
seen the inspector whom he assigned to
the case. The inspectors report will
be awaited with interest. for on it
hinges DR.. Bowker's fate. The matron's
complaints were made to Secretary
Holt, of the associated charities. They
came to the GLOBE last night too late
to be investigated at the Home for the
Friendless.

rels i'll 1890. There were nineteen mills
running Wednesday, and the weeks
work promises to exceed that of last
week. The firmness in wheat has still
further helped the flour trade, and for a
week back the sales by local mills have
been a good deal in excess of the manu-

WASHBURN'S SUIT.
The Chicago Tribune Seems to be
Hoping for It,

1t is good thing for Senator William
ID. Washburn, the junior senator from
the great state of Minnesota, that he will
not come up for reelection next winter.
He might have trouble in getting around
this embrOg.iO with the Chicago Tribune
in that event. AS it is, all this anti
option muss may be forgotten by the
time the Junior senator is candidate
again.
F. A. Vanderlip is the representative
of the Chicago Tribune who has been
looking up the senator's speculation
record in Minneapolis. He is the COM
mercial editor of the Chicago Tribune.
His mission has been to establish the
connection between certain wheel deals
on the books of Chicago brokers and
Senator Washburn. He says that he is
satisfied with what he has learned, Ac-
cording to the statements made by Mr..
Vanderlip, the Chicago Tribune is
anxious that Minnesota's junior senator
should begin libel suit against it.

PETERSON IS OUT.
He Surrendered the Office Yester-

DAY Afternoon.
Hans o. Peterson is no longer treas
urer of Hennepin county. L. j. Bux-
ton, who was elected to that post by the
county commissioners nearly four
months ago. now rules in his stead.
The new treasurer was installed in
the chair of office yesterday afternoon.
There was no fuss and no excitement
attending the closing act of the time
worn muddle. Ii. o. Peterson grace
FULLY accepted the inevitable. He and
his attorney have made good fight
against overwhelming odds. The whole
machinery of the government was ar
rayed against them. Although worsted
i'll this, the last bout, it is claimed the
reverse is but temporary. and that be-
fore many more moons, provided fair
play is accorded, Peterson once more
hopes to be boss of the countv's Golfers.
The long-eXpected custer which put
the coup-de-grace on PeterSOn'S official
career arrived in Minneapolis soon after
1 o'clock. Judgment was written M in
st. Paul shortly before noon, and

was delivered to County At
torney Than. who at once informed
the interested parties of its due arrival.
and cut and dried programme was ar
ranged for its serving. Promptly at 4
O'Clock Peterson and his attorney,
Judge Rea, who has stuck well to his
client and been his chief adviser in
formulating the plans of defense, ar
rived at the court house. They were
shortly after followed by the county
attorney and the treasurer elect.
County Auditor George E. Ledgerwood.
Clerk of Courts G. c. TirrelI and Com
missioner ChoWan, who constitute the
board OF audit, were already in waiting.
Sheriff SNenSOn, who was necessary to
complete the OUTFIT, was also within hail
and nothing remained to be done but
the formal serving Of the writ. The de-
thrOned county treasurer sought the in
Eermost recess of his office and there
awaited the official act.
Exactly at 4:15 County Attorney Than
ordered the fall-in, and heading a pro-
cession of the aforementioned gentle
men led the way to Peterson's quarters.
That individual was looking somewhat
glum, but he promptly responded to the
city attorneys call of time and stood up
to face his interloctors.
"Mr. Peterson" said Attorney Than,
'the sheriff has communication here
for yOu."
II. o. p. smiled somewhat sickly and
turned to the portly sheriff, who stood
at Attorney Thian's elbow:
'Here," said Sheriff Swenson, diving
into his inside pocket and producing
blue-cOvered legal document, lis a writ

Lutheran Singer Business.

Yesterday morning the Norwegian
Lutheran Singers union met for bust
ness meeting in st. Paul's church. The
committee on credentials reported 225
singers present, an encouraging report
for the first year. 1t was decided to
allow all singers to speak in the bust
ness meetings of the union, although
none but delegate will be allowed to
vote. Last night the union gave
another concert at Trinity church to
large audience. The programme was a
long one, but so excellent that its length
was forgotten. The place of meeting
next year was not decided, but was left
TO the president and secretary. None
of the choirs seemed anxious to act as
host next year.

In the Tolls Again.

About two months ago Frank Cutter,
thief, broke out of the Jail at Anoka.
All efforts to find him proved unavail-
ing until yesterday. when he ran into
trap. He arrived from Milwaukee on a
morning train and proceeded to walk
out of the depot as boldly as an alder
man might be expected to do Inspector
James Doyle was waiting for him, how
ever, and arrested him as soon as he
stepped out of the depot door. He was
taken to the central station and locked
up. Later in the day Sheriff Lenfest of
Anoka county, arrived in the city and
took Cutter back to his old quarters.
Cutter was held to the grand jury for
grand larceny. but broke jail and es-
capped before he had been indicted.
