Henderson's New Move.

A spasm of virtue has seized upon the
police department., or rather the head of
the department. Orders were issued
Friday to have all the gambling rooms
attached to saloons closed tighter than a
wedge. They must close or the proprie-
tors would suffer the ignominy of arrest.
Several officers of the Central precinct
were ordered to notify these gambling
places, and did so. The gambling
houses and poker rooms conducted in
places other than saloons were not mo-
Tested.
A short time ago the superintendent
issued an order to all the patrolmen to
report to him the location OF assigna-
tion houses. the names of those who
conducted them. also the names and the
places of residence of that class of
women known as ''roomerS." The list
of names. it will readily be seen. was a
formidable one. It is Rot known what
use the superintendent intends to put
his Information in this particular to.

MORRILL, AND "REFORM."
Calvary's Pastor Went Against 1t
in st, Paul Friday Night.

CaIvary's Pastor Went Against 1t
in ST. Paul Friday Night.
Rev. G. L. Morrill, lectured in st. Paul
Friday night, and interested large au-
dience, but one of the most interesting
incidents of his visit to st. Paul occurred
after the lecture. Mr.. Morrill, left the
church, and made sprinter's time from
Ninth and Wacouta streets to the depot,
running the distance in nine minutes,
only to find that the 1850 train was
over an hour late. He was so wet
with perspiratlon that he dared not. as
he said, ride back to Minneapolis over
the interurban cold storage system. so
he started back to find the residence of
a friend who had invited him to spend
the night in st. Paul. Taking new
route, he lost his way. He walked into
a dark region, and was accosted by a
man who came out of doorway, and
said, sotto voce: stranger, where are
you going?'' Mr.. Morrill, made no re-
ply, but turned the corner and walked
on. The man who had showed so much
interest in his destination followed until
a vacant lot was reached, where four
other fellows sneaked up and seemed
about to repeat the inquiry. That was
enough for the pastor of Calvary Bap-
tist. He clutched his handbag and 'scut
for the tall timber" at pace that defed
pursuit. Just then the church splre
loomed up before him and he soon found
shelter. Mr.. Morrill's friend thought it
all good joke. his experience with the
five men, until the location of the oc-
currence was made clear to him. He
recognized the location as one where
several desperate highway attempts
have been made on strangers in the city
since the new reform" administration
came into control of st. Paul. Mr.. Nor
rill says this:
MY moral is that my remaining lee
+ lures in st. Paul will be given before

For Police Benefit.

At the last meeting of the directors
of the Minneapolis Police Relief asso-
citation a proposition was accepted from
Manager Hays, of the Bij0u, for bene-
fit to be gwen during the Gus Williams
engagement, the week of Dec. 4. A
committee composed of Fred George,
William Amour and John Herr was
appointed to promote the affair, and
under the direction of these three hust-
lers an active sale of tickets has al
ready commenced. The main object of
the association is to provide for the
maintenance of the sick, and the
insurance of the lives of the members.
The object is purely charitable i'll every
way, and is entitled to the support OF
every citizens. Last season the assOci-
alton realized nearly thousand dollars
from its Bijou benefit, and it is expect
ed that this seasons affair will greatly
exceed that of last. Seats are now on
sale by the various officers of the city,
and as the association receives benefit
only from the tickets. sold by the off
GERS, it is, hoped that theater- goerS and
citizens in general will patronize, their

A Denot on the Island.

A number of railroad men and prop
erty owners are discussing the feaslbl-
ity of building depot on Nicollet isl
and. The scheme is to purchase the
property lying between Eastman ave-
nue. and the Great Northern tracks,
which cross the railroad east and west.
This strip is about eight acres in extent
and valued at S50O.O0O. The railroads
Interested in the deal are the Northern
Pacific, Burlington, Wisconsin Central
and the 500. While they all have access
to the union depot, the rents are very
high aud the connections not OF the very
best. In case the depot scheme should
go through. an endeavor would be made
to secure possession of the entire upper
half of the island and use it for rail-
road terminus. The area of this por-
ton OF the island is about thirty acres,
and it would cost in the neighborhood
of S1,000,000.

NELSON'S MONEY GONE.
He Thinks He Was Robbed sbs
Cell Mate.

Friday night. Officer Erickson, of the.
South precinct station, arrested a Swede
named Nelson, for being drunk. 3Hei
Was locked up at the South statjon
and afterwards taken to the central sta
ton. where he was placed in cell oeet-,
r'ad by well-known crook named
O'COnnor. The latter went tothe work.
house ana Nelson paid his fine of SI0sfor
being drunk. Yesterday, however, he
made complaint that he had been robbed
of nearly 500 while in the cell at@the'
central station. He says he had
a large amount of money in his
pocket when he was placed ! ins
the cell, but when he was released.
he could only find SO. He was sure.
that O'Connor had stolen it while he
was asleep. He felt sure that 1t would
do him no good to report the matter to
the superintendent of police, so he set
about looking up the matter himself.
He made inquiries at the central station,
and the officers kindly telephoned to
the workhouse for information. They
were informed that when OConnor was
searched 10 money was found on his
person. One of the officers at the sta
ton. however, saw O'Connor display
big roll of bills previous to going into
the workhouse, and it way be that he
managed to secret it before he wa s
searched by the workhOuSe officials.

To return to Eustis' nerve-he'll have
plenty of opportunity to test it. He
can test it by turning down lGoodnow.
He can test it by appointing Brackett
superintendent of police. He can test
1t by disregarding the. principles the
church-going people voted for when
they voted for Eustis. He can test it by
refusing to recognize the promise of
privilege made in his name. He can
test it by being mayor de faeto, as well
as de lure. Let's see how he works.

One thing. however, Eustis cannot
well refuse Goodnow-the distribution
of the privileges - and you know what
that means if you are familiar with the
ways of municipal government. 1t
should be stated here that one
reason why George A. Bracket
was made prominent in the
campaign was to attract the supportof
the righteous voters. GoodnoW did
just as effective work in rounding up
the people who will need 'privieges.''
With those people Goodnow is under
specific agreement The ''privileges'',
were all parcelled out weeks before, the
election. William Henry's Y.P.S.C.E.,
Dorcas society and quarterly conference
friends expect him to frown upon all
privileges" Now see if he does.
Should he do SO, look out for jolly
row. Here is one place where Good
now must make good"

John Goodnow is in fair way to be
the boss of the incoming administra-
ton. but he may be thwarted. William
Henry Eustis has been eyincng symp-
toms of ObStreperouSneSS.
Goodnow had Jim Nash slated for
chief of police. But Jim is in imminent
danger of being turned down. On this
appointment will come test of Good
now's strength with the mayor-eiect.
Goodnow promised to make good this
pledge, but he may have to confess
weakness.
j. L. Mannix was slated for mayors
secretary, according to the first Good
now slate, and Joe deserves it. He is
responsible for Eustis' nomination.
Had he not had the foresight to prepare
printed EuStiS ballots for the
convention William Henry would
have been left at the post.
But Manni& is in danger of being
turned down. too. unless William Henry
should assert himself. Cleveland's IS
election will necessitate Trussell's
search for another job. 1t is stated here
on good authority that GoodnoW has,
recently, slated TruSseIl for the chair
