THAT WAR SCARE.
Russian Troops Continue to Move Toward
the Western Frontier.


the Western Frontier.
VIENNA, March 12.-The movement of
Russian troops toward the western from
tier continues. Dispatches from Moscow
state that the troops thereabouts are
mobilizing, preparatory to transfer to
the German and Austrian boundaries.
Orders have been sent to the Russian
officers in charge of the manufacture OF
new small caliber rifles by a French
firm, that at least 250,000 of the small
arms must be ready for shipment next
fall.
The new smokeless powder factory at
Kazan has taken on double force or
men and is working night and day. The
Thorn Gazette, published fifty miles
from the Russian border in West Prus-
sia, says that for weeks Russian troops
with heavy artillery have crowded the
roads to Kowno, Grodno, Georgiewsk
and Iwangorod, the great fortified
camps near the Russian boundary.
1t is estimated by military men here,
who are in constant communication
with the Galician frontier, that 20, 900
infantry, 10000 cavalry, and heavy
force Of artillery have been moved since
New Years to the line of fortresses be-
tween Iwangored and Rocono. In the
three weeks the movement has been es-
pecially apparent, in the advance OF the
Cossack regiments, to reinforce the gar
risons at towns hardly stones throw
from Prussian soil.
Thus the forces at Wlozavek, Tschen.
stochow, Lipno, Nieszawa and Ulawa
have been doubled. At wilma a new
fortified camp has been constructed and
invested with 10000 troops. The uneasi-
ness here is manifested in the German
newspapers, which published this last
piece of news Wednesday.

Dean, the Peach Man, Says 1t.

JEFFERsoNvILIE, Ind, March 49,
The prospects for large yield of fruit
in southern Indiana were never better
than at present, with the exception of
the peach crop. The yield will proba-
bly be heavier than in many years past.
Frank Dean, the noted peach grower of
Bethlehem, on the river is quoted as
saving that on account of the large
number of buds on the peach trees last
season the number this year will be very
much smaller, but the fruit will be
larger and of finer quality, and the tedi-
ous work of thinning avoided.

The Treasurer Wants Room for

At the meeting of the Joint court
house committee yesterday communi-
cation WAS received from County Treas
urer a. n. Nelson, asking that his Of
flee be transferred to the quarters lately
vacated by the health department, facing
Wabasha and Fifth streets. The pres
ent quarters of the county treasurer are
too small to accommodate the addi-
tional clerical force needed at some sea-
sons of the year; besides there is only
one entrance, and jam of people often
occurs which blockadeS this entrance,
occasi onally necessitating policemen
being called to keep the people in
line. The proposed quarters would
give the needed room for four
additional clerks, and relieve the
damned appearance to some extent in
busy seasons, besides being near the
auditors Office, between which and the
treasurer's office there is frequent bust
ness. The proposed change would
necessitate the construction of a new
vault. The communication was re-
ferred to the committee Oh grounds and
buildings.
A communication was also read from
DR.. Hoyt asking that the committee
investigate the walls and interior of

ment in the basement to demonstrate

Three More Damage Suits In
stituted Against the
Company.

DR.. Auten Pine has scored the first
victory against the ST. Paul City Rail-
way company on the question of an
ejectment from car as the holder OF
transfer slip. He was given verdict
yesterday for S400 after few moments
deliberation by the jury. The case was
tried in Judge Egan'S court, and the
charge of his honor WAS favorable TO a
recovery. The moral to be drawn from
the cause is that transfer issued which
will be good on one of several connect
ing lines going over the same extension
would avoid great amount of discom-
fort and explosives OH the part of pas
Sengers.
\ summary of the facts in the case
tried shows that Nov. 10 last. DIR. Pine
had call TO visit patient along the in
terurban line. He got on a downtown
car and asked for transfer for any car
going out to the Midway district. He
was given transfer to the st. Anthony
and Hamline line, but got on an interur-
ban car going in the same direction.
The conductor refused TO accept the
slip and ordered the doctor Off his car.
The latter declined 10 get of, and, with
the use of eXpletiveS, Informed the con-
ductOr that he was not of sufficient
build to put him off. A policeman was
called and the doctor accepted the iney-
liable and paid an additional nickel
with the remark that he was then III a
position to test the question as TO the
local manager of the street railway Sys-
TEN owning the city. The verdict of the
Jury gave DIR. Pine the last laugh over
the matter.

Bteam-Fitting Contract for St.
Luke's Hospital.
The steam filters are considerably eX-
ercised over the recent letting of con-
tract to Detroit, Mich, firm for steam
heating apparatus to 90 into the new ST..
Ehke's hospital. Eight steam-heating
and gas-fitting firms of this city put in
bids for the contract. and some of their
bids are declared by well-posted
experts to have been low. Yet
the Detroit firm was awarded
the contract. 1t is contended that the
st. Paul firms were compelled to bid
only Oh the specifications of Architect
johnson. of this city, and that the East
ern parties were permitted TO make
changes in the specifications whereby
the value of the work was lowered and
the Detroiters could afford to under
bid the ST. Paul men. Had the latter
been permitted to change the Specifica
tions the basis of bidding would have
been different. At least one member of
the awarding committee was taken to
task yesterday upon the subject, and
from the movement that is under way
among prominent business men it is
evident that the trustees will have an
interesting time with the home con.
tractors.
