Two Accidental Death s.

Henry Myer, a carpenter living at 720
Twentieth avenue northeast, met with
a sudden death yesterday morning. He
was employed in finishing barn on
Emerson avenue. near Lake street, and
shortly before dinner was working Oh
the cupOla. He lost his balance and
fell, sliding down the roof and off to
the ground. Death did not come at
once. Mver crawled a dozen feet
toward the barn. leaving trail of blood
behind. He was not discovered until
$3.50, and he was then stone dead. Cor
oner Spring was notified and caused the
body to be removed to one of the
morgues. 1t is not likely an inquest will
be held.
William Barckley, lumberman en-
ployed by the Leighton Lumber COM
pany. was killed yesterday by falling
tlmDers in the woods above Brainerd.
The remains were brought to this city
and placed IN Connoily's norgue.
Barckley lived in this city. He was

fore Christmas. an account of a man

MIXED ALARMS.
Firemen Turned Loose on Corners

Firemen Turned Loose on Corners
Where No Fire Was.
The opeI ator at fire headquarters,
whose duty it is to ring the alarms, was
evidently little mixed last night. Fire
broke out in the basement of the Mill
neapolis Cancer and Medical infirmary,
at the corner of Stevens avenue and
Twenty-siXth street, shortly before 8
O'Clock. Three alarms were turned III,
the second one sending lot of the ap-
paratus to the corner of Nlcollet
avenue and Sixth street, the
alarm turned III being 76
while the number at the corner where
the fire was burning was siXty-seven.
AS consequence the department got
mixed up not little. The fire origi-
mated from the ashes of the furnace be
ing thrown into a pile of waste paper
which ignited from live Goals. 1t spread
to the first floor, which was occupied by
furniture establishment Oh one SIDE
and confectionery store on the other.
The former was owned by j. A. Thurs
ton and his loss will be i'll the neighbor-
hood of $500. covered by $4,000 insur-
ance. U. Tanner owned the candy
store and his loss will be about $500.
The flames penetrated to the third
story and managed to d0a little damage.
There was but one patient in the hospi-
tai who needed assistance in getting out
of the building. This was lady, and
she was carried down stairs to drug
store on the opposite corner by Patrol
man POhl. Altogether the loss will not
exceed $4,000.

Several Important Matters
Before the Park Board
Yesterday.

Minneapolis lost an ola landmark and
time-honored citizen last night.
Thomas Spotford King died at 9:05. He
passed away quietly and without much
pain. BY his bedside were his family
and his brother, Col. William S. King.
Death was due to some arrangement
OF the brain functions, brought about
by a complication of diseases which
were the direct result of fall sustained
about five years ago. The deceased was
arranging the thing on the roof and fell
Off. He never fully recovered from the
effect. About ten days ago he COM
planned of feeling badly, but did not
take to his bed. In fact, Sunday was
really the first day he was obliged to te-
main indoors. Yesterday he began to
fail viSibly, and the family physician,
Dr. Higbee. was called in. Towards
evening it was plain that Mr.. King
could last but a short time. and all the
members of his family were summoned.
1t has not been decided when the flu
neral will be held.
Thomas King was one of the pioneers
of the city. He was born in Pottsdam,
n. Y. Sept. 15 1871. and came to MIN
Weapons III W at the SOllcllJLlOn Ol COI-
King, who was at that time editor and
publisher of the State Atlas in Mime
apOljS. Thomas acted as the local editor
of the paper, and continued in
that capacity until the Atlas and
Chronicle were merged into the
Tribune. He then assumed the
position of assistant manager OF the
Tribune, and, when the colonel was in
Washington, acted as manager. Soon
after he went over to the Minneapolis
department of the st. Paul Pioneer, and
remained with that paper until it be-
came tile Pioneer Press. In the early
part of 80 he organized The Brush
Electric Light company, and acted as
the manager for several years. Of re
cent years the deceased was in the in
Surance business with Calhoun d
Thompson.
MIR. King married Harriet Francis
Merritt. the daughter of Col. Weston
Merritt. June &, 1867. Six children were
the fruit of their marriage, two of whom
are dead. Those living are Florence
King, now Mrs. Charles Carpenter,
George r., Blanche s. and Fred Weston
King. Mrs. King also survives him.
The family residence is at 10Y HaW-
thOrne avenue. The funeral arrange
merits have not yet been perfected.

A BLOW AT TURNER'S,
Who Protest Against Bill in the
Senate.

Who Protest Against Bill IN the
Senate.
The senate committee on judiciary is
a busy body these days. 1t is encum-
bered by multitudinous array of bills.
and sessions are held daily. The meas
ures considered last evening after the
adjournment Of the senate were gener-
ally of miuor Importance, however. The
bill prohibiting any maaager, trustee,
officer and employe of any public lnStl-
tuition from being in any way Interested
i'll contract or purchase Oh account OF
the institution he is connected with, was
recommended to pass, as was Senator
McHale'S bill relating to official trusts.
The bill providing for reports for the
Offices of judge OF probate aud clerks or
courts was recommended to be lndetl-
nitely postponed.
\ large delegation from Hennepin
county came before the committee to
protest against the passage of the bill
providing that educational institutions
can only be exempt from taxation in the
event that they are used exclusively for
educational purposes. The delegation
claimed that the measure is a serious
blow at the turner societies Of the state.
Anton Grethen, of Minneapolis, eX-
planned at length the position of the
delegation upon the bill. He said the
turner societies are now exempt from
taxation, and pursued that these insti-
buttons are exclusively given up to edu-
cational purposes, but they often rent
portion OF their property for business
pursuits. Still, the proceeds of these
rents are entirely devoted to the pur-
poses of education. The committee
took the bill under advisement, but
came to no definite conclusion.

received 100000 francs within three
wears from the Banca Romano, and SCR.

ITS EARNING POWER.
President Abbott Answers the
Attack OF the Committee On
the Wisconsin Central.
The Roads Earnings Per Mile
Shows 1t to Be a First Glass
Property.

NEW YORK. Feb. 20.-A letter written
by Edwin Ii. Abbott, president of the
Wisconsin Central, and addressed to
Thomas F. Cakes, president of the
Northern Pacific, was made public
today. 1t is in reply to the report of
Messrs. Clews, Ives and Cooke. the
special committee appointed to investi-
gate Northern Pacific affairs. Mr.. Alb
bolt i'll part says:
II have just read the report, so called
issued by the stockholders committee.
The authorship is thinly disguised. Its
tone and style betray the hands of
member of the committee who was
formerly Gil tine Northern Pacific
keep his place. He doubtless
attributes his defeat TO Wisconsin Cen
trail influence. and this belief explains
his inability to see anything good In
Wisconsin Central past, present
and future. He fails to dis
over that the Wisconsin Central
railroads covered by the lease Of the
Northern Pacific Railroad company,
dated April l, 1890. showed for the year
ended June 80, 1892, S7,3l9.64 earnings to
the mile OH main line mileage of
764.37, and that no other railroad
going out of st. Paul or coming into
Chicago from the North west or South
west earns nearly as large an amount.
He neglects to state that the Wis
consin Central railroads have in
creased their earnings 1877 per cent
since 1856 without any substantial in
crease in main line mileage. 1t is quite
needless to answer the reflections which
this report makes upon the Wisconsin
Central's methods of attending to its
Own business and managing its
own affairs. 1t is enough to
say that the gentlemen who
manage the Wisconsin Central proper
ties have never failed during the
twenty-three years which have elapsed
since the infant enterprise was started
to pay every honest debt which their
companies have ever incurred, and the
wisdom of their policy appears i'll the
results today"

Refusal of the Bar Association to
Take Any Action.
Yesterday the Minneapolis Bar asso-
citation held its regular annual meeting,
and did a whole lot Of talking about one
thing and another. 1t did not, though,
take action looking to the repeal Of the
law which places the Office of clerk of
courts Oh a cash basis. Mem berS of the
association resented the assertion made
by morning paper that the aSso-
citation is in league with Clerk
of Courts DicEey to give that
official several thousand dollars year
more than he draws now. Anyhow. the
bar committee could not do anything.
The fee question affects every member
of the bar and should be considered at
an open meeting OF the bar. not in
meeting of corporation which com
prises only comparatively few men,
Lers of the bar. SO that question was
dropped.
Officers were elected as follows:
President, Il. D. Russell; vice presi-
dent, John q. Vanderlip; secretary,
John F. Baxter; treasurer, f. b. Bailey;
executive committee, A. NJ. Keith,
Frank Healy, Ralph Whelan, j. B.

At the close, some Informal discus
sion as to the future of the association
was INDUCED in. The association must
soon have new quarters. The posi-
billty of uniting all the law libraries
now in the city and locating them in
the new court house. Or, at least. move
the bar associations library there, was
discussed, but the completion OF the

belief that only the borders of the trou-
bic had been touched, and said that ex-
traOrdinary action would have to be
taken by the treasury department.
or else congress would have to
reassemble before next July to
meet the condition. His warning did
not prevent tie senate from agree
ing all the amendments that were
offered, making appropriations for in
creasing the limit of cost of public
buildings. The only yea and nay vote
that was taken upon them showed all
the Republican senators except MIR.
Sherman, in the affirmative, and all
the Democrats except Mr.. Vest
in the negative. The sundry civil
appropriation bill occupied the atten-
zion of the senate throughout the day.
Amendments were agreed to fixing the
limit of the cost OF the public building
at Portland, Or, at $1,000,000, appropri-
ating $1,000 for an additional story to
the public building at Sheboygan, Wis,
and $4,000 for the completion of the

W. II. Donaldson. the expert account
ant, is not particularly worried by the
stories started by employees of the
county treasurer's office. although he is
indignant that such stories should have
been started. They are utterly without

only received $4,000 for going over the

His time book shows that he did not

INSURANCE RATES.
Investigation of Conditions Which

Investigation Of Conditions Which
May Send Them Higher.
The insurance men of the city are on
the anxious seat, as it were, for they do
not know where the rates are to end.
This fire department muddie has Gre
ated considerable trouble, and now the
National Insurance association is looking
into the matter Of rates with a view to
making them still higher. A represent
alive of the association has been in the
city for the past two weeks looking over
the general condition of things, and
will. in a short time, make report
to the association. The object Of his visit
is to determine the key rate for insur-
ance in this city. This key rate is based
on the height of the buildings, width of
the streets, size of the water mains.
water supply, size aud strength of the
fire department and the manner in
which the department is conducted.
Whether the department is controlled
by commission or board, or the city
council, is matter of considerable i'm
portance to the association. The fact
that the Minneapolis department is con-
trolled by the council lowers the char
acter of the department in the estima
ton Of the association.
The representative referred to has
discovered that the department is be
low the standard in point of numbers,
having fifteen men less than is con-
sidered necessary for city Of this size.
When the key rate of insurance has
been fixed by the association, the local
agents add the local rates. This gives
promise of being still higher ere long.
