The city engineer made lengthy re-
port, the most important feature of
which was the matter of building a
levee along the east bank OF the Los An
geles river, from the Santa Fe bridge
HOO feet northerly, so as to protect the
stock yards, etc.
He reported that the plans and speci-
| fications will soon be ready. Filed.
Regarding the width OF the sidewalks
| on Commercial street, east of Alameda,
the report showed that the old wooden
I curbs are for 7-foot sidewalk, and that
about 800 feet OF cement curb and walk
have been laid on width OF 8 feet. The
engineer recommendedesthat the council
establish the width Of the walks at s
feet. Adopted.
He presented an ordinance OF inten-
tion to grade Hoover street, from Six
teenth to Washington, and repeating
ordinances 1922 and I796.
He found that the petition OF W. H.
Young ct al. asking for change of
grade on Thirty-second street from
Breed to Soto streets, represents ma
jority frontage, thereby giving council
| jurisdiction in the matter. The neces-
sary ordinance OF intention was pre-
Eented.
The ordinance OF intention to estab-
lish the grade Of Star street from Pico
to Tenth street, was approved and
passed.
The engineer reported on the petition
OF G. W. Tubbs and others asking that
the work on Washington street between
San Pedro and Central avenue be made
to conform to the grade, and he found
that the work does conform to the
grade, although there is an apparent
discrepancy between the old redwood
curb and the new cement curb now laid
on the corner of Washington and Gen.
tral avenue. Filed.

Regarding the envelope in the safe Of

NEW POLICEMEN.
Slight Kicking, but All Confirmed
at Last

at Last.
Assemblymen Doran, Sandell, Wolter-
stortf and Van Slyke, of the committee
on police from that body, held a meet
ing yesterday afternoon for the purpose
of passing on the appointments of A. j.
Viiiaume, B. f. Morse and William
Banker to the police force, made by
Mayor Wright There was no opposition
to the appointments of Villaume and
Morse, but some question was raised as
to the eligibility of Banker.
Mr.. Sandell said he coule see no rea-
son for making fuss on this particular
appointment. Not much attention had
been paid i'll the past to appointments
by the executive, as he knew of men
who were over age being appointed to
the force. One man iii particular, &C
cording to his own application, had
come to this country ten years before
the appointee was born, and in another
case man claiming to be under thirty
i've years had son twenIy-four years
old.
Mr.. Doran thought it would be well to
confirm the appointments of Villaume
and Morse and have an Investigation as
10 the eligibility of Banker He under
stood Bankers name had not been in
the directory for several years and it
was question whether the appointee
was resident of the city.
Mr.. Woterstorff said Banker had
lived in st. Paul for seven years.
Mr.. Doran stated that Mr.. Handy, the
mayors private secretary, had informed
him that the mayor had nothing to do
with the appointment of Banker. but
that great pressure had been brought to
have Banker appointed by E. W. Win
ter. Mr.. WolterStortf said Banker had
been employed for the Omaha road for
several years and Jimmie Nugent, who
during the sickness of the mayor was
assistant acting mayor, had told him
Banker was all right and entitled to the
appointment if the only objection was
on his being resident of the city, as he,
Nugent. had Known him for years.
With this Endorsement the committee
recommended the confirmation of the
men, Banker included.

The grand lodge Of the Knights of
Pythias for the state of Minnesota
closed its twenty-first annual session
yesterday afternoon. The session has
been the most satisfactory one in the
history of the order in this state.
Several amendments proposed last
year to the constitution were disposed
of yesterday, and were defeated. The
most notable of these was the PROPOSE
ton to admit liquor dealers into the
order. This proposition was defeated
by an overwhelming majority. A num-
Der of other amendments to the consti-
tuition were proposed, which will lay
over until the next annual meeting, I'M
der the rule.
The grand officers elect were installed
by Past Grand Chancellors 0. Whitman
and b. q. Merry. The secret work of
the order was eXemplfied by Grand
Chancellor Fred E. Wheaton. The
grand lodge decided to stand by the uni
formed rank, and to encourage it to
make improvements. With this object
in view it appropriated $3.50 for the pur-
pose of furnishing music on the occa-
sion of the meeting OF the supreme
lodge of the world which meets next

BOWIE TELLS A TALE OF WOE.

And the Authorities Claim to
Prove an Alibi.
Henry Bowie was before Gov. Nelson
yesterday complaining that he had been
misused by the officials of the st. Paul
municipal court. He alleges that while
hunting Monday at Bass lake he ordered
dinner at Jim Brady's place, and while
it was preparing he walked into the
woods. Brady and another man. he
says, followed him. and after inducing
him to let them see his gun one struck
him on the head with a heavy club.
knocking him senseless. When ne
came too the other man stood over him
with revolver and threatened to shoot
him. They hauled him toward the
house, giving him another beating with
the club; then made him pay $3.50 for
the return Of his gun, besides 80 cents
tor the dinner he hadnot eaten. AS he
was leaving the place Brady, he says,
fired at him twice with revolver. He
says that he applied to the municipal
court officers for warrant early in the
morning, but did not get it until late in
the afternoon. And yesterday morning
he was informed by the sheriff that the
men had skipped the country.
The municipal court officials were in
terviewed last evening concerning the
matter, and told the following story:
Bowie appeared at the office Of the
clerk of the court, and after telling his
story went to the county attorney.
After awhile an order came from the
county attorney for a warrant against
Brady. In the meantime news reached
the office of the clerk that Brady was
not the man wanted, but that it was
Melvin Sawyer, an employe of Brady.
who was implicated in the affair. And
it also appeared that Sawyer had told
Brady in Boosting way of what he had
done, and that Brady at once discharged
him, with the information that he
wanted no such work going on about
his place. The clerk then made out a
warrant for the arrest of Sawyer, and
noted on it the instruction to bring
Brady also in, so that Bowie might see
that he was in error as TO who COM
emitted sthe deed. The sheriff obeyed
the instruction, bringing Brady into
court. Upon sight of Brady, Bowie ac-
tknowledged his error, saying that Brady
was not one of the parties to the deed.

He Is now on his way back, having
lectured in almost every town and city
where he has stopped. Everywhere his
lectures have attracted great interest,
and he has called forth an enthusiasm
seldom bestowed upon even the best

lecture In this city tonight will be better
attended than any previous occasion in
the history of the Scandinavians of st.

THE STONE CONTROVERSY.

One of the Regents Tells Why
Ohio Knocked Out Minnesota.
Anent the disturbance over the matter
the state university, one of the members
of the board of regents had the follow
ing to say yesterday:
lit should be known to the public that
all this disturbance is kicked up by two
men, who are not working in the inter-
ests of Minnesota stone generally, but
simply for the Kettle river product.
Two lines of railway are interested in
this-the Duluth and the Eastern Min
nesota, which is branch of the Great
Northern.
''Sam Hill and John Goodnow, of
Minneapolis, appeared at the meeting
of the board of regents at which the
contract was awarded for the Ohio
stone, and presented sample of
the Kettle river stone, urging
that il should be used. The stone
was duly examined and compared
with the Ohio stone. Two things may
be said about the Kettle river stone:
Even When fresh out of the quarry it is
too dark to suit the purpose of the arch
itecture decided upon for the structure,
and when it is exposed to the air for
year it grows materially darker. An
other thing about this stone is that it is
almost as hard as granite, and it would
be very costly work to dress it for use,
while the OHIO stone is very easy to
dress. The difference in cost OF dressing
the two stones would be very costly
item. One of the regents has made
careful study of the matter, and saws
that the Ohio stone can be taken out of
the quarry at an expense not to exceed
$1,000. 1t Is to be brought to Minneap-
oils in the rough, and dressed there by
Minneapolis labor.
''Of course, had we chosen the Kettle
river stone, these railroads would haul
it to the university grounds and reapia
nice little business. Sam Hill and
GoodnOw have never had a word to say
IN the interests of Minnesota stone out
side Kettle river. Their whole GREY
ance is that the Kettle river stone was
not decided upon. OF course, after they
set the ball rolling, Mankato and other
StOne-prOducing points have become
aroused.
There is one thing certain. the only
stone exhibited TO us which came any
where near answering the purpose of
the Grecian architecture was the Ohio
stone. 1t is not only suitable in coler,
but will be great saving of expense in
the matter of dressing"

The grand lodge expressed its appre-
citation OF the work done by Grand
Chancellor Wheaton last year and voted
him $500 for his services. This was done
in view of the fact that he had devoted
all of his time during the year to the
work of the order. Mr. Wheaton re-
ceived the high compliment of being
elected grand chancellor for the third
term, compliment never before paid
in the history of the order.
Grand Chancellor Wheaton was sus-
tanned in his action relative to Washing
ton lodge. That lodge claimed 1t had
oVerpaId f. S. Webb to the amount of
$50 for thirteen weeks sick benefits.
The lodge wanted t0 deduct that amount
from the total and collect years dues
IN advance. Webb appealed to the grand
chancellor, who decided that the lodge
should stand the loss occaSioned by the
mistake and to pay Webb the full bene-
tit for thirteen weeks. An appeal was
taken from the decision of the grand
chancellor by the lodge and the grand
lodge sustained the ruling of the grand
chancellor.
The session of the grand lodge closed
about O'Clock yesterday afternoon, and
many of those i'll attendance left for
home last night.

Amateur Detective.
SIP. Crosby, the well-known .atteE-

that occurred yesterday morning as
follows: 1.-Two strangers were in the
saloon of Capt. James S. Rockford when
the driver for Hamm's brewery col
lected SI4. While he was counting So
in silver one of the strangers became
very familiar, said he was Theodore
Hamm's son and undertook to count the
coin for the driver. Then the strangers
said they would ride home on the brew
cry wagon. Capt. Rockford became
suspicious and told the driver to go
down cellar, where he told him his
fears. Then he sent for the police. The
wagon was held in that vicinity, with
the strangers on board. until Officers
Rose and SWEENEY arrived and arrested
them. One of the officers carried the
picture of man he was looking for. It
correspondent very closely with the
phiz of one of the strangers, and both
of them took their ride in the patrol
wagon. The claim of relationship to
Mr.. Hamm was base fabrication.
