LUCRE FOR LIGHTING.
ROBERT SEEcER IS ALLOWED 1898
FOR THE MONTH or My
M'CARDY FORCES THE CUT,
And incidentally Gives Pointers
on a Contractors First Duty
No Increase of Street Lamps
Is Possible, Owing to a Lack
of Available Funds.

OF Available Funds.
The committee on gas from the board
of aldermen held meeting yesterday
afternoon and approved the bill of Rob-
ert Seeger for lighting the gasoline
lamps for the month Of May. The bill
as put in called for S4,0SS for lighting
1924 lamps at Sl.23 per lamp. As the
bills for February and March had been
approved at price of Sl.29 per month
the comptroller suggested that would
be the proper charge for the month of
May, and this was decided correct by
the committee. The comptroller also
stated 372 lamps had been reported not
lighted during the month, and said
Si4.SS. or four cents per lamp, should be
deducted from the bill.
To this Mr.. Seeger objected, and said
for the last five months the work had
been done by him just the same as
though the contract with the city were
in force. During that time he had re.
ceived no money from the city, and. as
he was out the interest on the amount,
he thought it hardly fair that he should
be charged with the lamps reported out,
especially as they were lit every night.
Aid. Zimmerman was of the opinion
that if, through the stupidity of the
council, the contract with Seeger was
no good. and he had been kept out of
his money longer than he would had the
contract been good, he was entitled to
some damages. Whether the way 10
pay this damage was to strike out the
amount for outs was a question.
a Contractors First Duty.
Comptroller McCardy said the point
raised by Aid. Zimmerman was not
well taken, as the first thing contractor
should look after was to see that the
city had the right to make the contract.
The courts had decided that the council
had no right to make the contract, and
it remained to be seen whether Seeger
was entitled to any damages.
The bill as reduced by the comp
troller was approved and for the month
of May Mr.. Seeger Was allowed 49,
1882.
The semi-annual report of the board
of public works as to the number of gas
and gasoline lamps was then taken up.
The report showed that on July there
were 1921 gasoline and 5000 gas lamps
and 81 electric lights in the service,
and that the cost of lighting the city
was Sl65. 900. As this took all the
money appropriated by the tax levy an
increase in the number of lamps seemed
out of the question. The report called
attention to the fact that it cost S77.50
per month to light the market house
and suggested that the matter be in
veStigated.
Aid. Zimmerman was in favor of
having the matter investigated and
Chairman Ingersoll appointed Aids.
Conley and Zimmerman as subcom-
mittee to report to the board of alder
men next Tuesday.
The assembly committee on gas met
few moments later and passed Seeger's
bill for May lighting.

Mrs. Newport Tells About Plans
Under Consideration.

Mrs. Newport Tells About Plans
Under Consideration.
In speaking about the reports of the
inquest OH the bethel boat, Mrs. New
port has this to say about the facts de-
velOped:
lit was not fire trap. We have
floating bethelS all along the lakes and
rivers, and never fire before. In st.
Louis we had a fine brick building,
where more than ordinary pre-
cautions were taken, and yet it
burned and four lives were lost.
The St. Paul Bethel accommodated
ninety persons, and nearly eighty were
sleeping the night of the fire on the
boat-and the ones who failed to escape
were a woman, whose lungs had been
weak for years, and she was easily q
victim to sutfocatiOn. Herroom opened
right at the head of the stairway in the
rear; also there were two windows in
her room. One victim, all old man, was
i'll the third story. No gasoline had
been used for weeks OH the boat, and
but one oil lamp, and the oil was above
standard. Some think the boat was
built on an old steamboat hull. On the
contrary, it was new, Staunchly built
hull that cost over $1,000. The river
men all agree there never was
stronger. better hull on the river. The
Bethel was no more fire trap than any
other wooden building, and not nearly
SO mucn as an ordinary steamboat. In
justice to the management these facts
should be very clearly stated"
Mrs. Newport acknowledges the fol-
lowing contributions to the Bethel
fund:

JULIUS AND HIS GUN.
An Editor Suddenly Called Home
to AIlay Hostilities.

An Editor Suddenly Called Home
to AIlay Hostilities.
The danger of newspaper men stray
ing away from home was forcibIy illus
trated yesterday. Julius Schmahl. the
well-known editor of the Redwood
Falls Gazette, was startled during his
brief visit to st. Paul to receive a tele-
gram calling for his return Immediately
to head and take charge of posse
comitatuS. 1t appears that, taking
advantage of Mr.. Schmahl's absence
from home. the Indians at an adjacent
agency broke over the rules of temper
ance he had laid down by precept and
example for their guidance. and, fired
up With fire water, proceeded to
annihilate a party of tramps who
were waiting for harvest to begin
in order to have an opportunity
to decline to work. In julius absence
there was no one to command the peace
or command respect from the noble
red man. Mr.. Schmahl secured a Cat
ling gun from Gov. Nelson and took a
special train last night for the scene of
hostilities. The fact of his coming
with the paraphernalia of war had
sufficient moral effect. even at long
range, to suspend hostilities, and one of
the tramps who was supposed to be
dead decided to come to life, at least
long enough for Julius and his gun to
put i'll an appearance. This prompt
action on his part will be highly ap-
preciated by the community whose
safety is in his keeping.

THE CANAL Is A GO.
President . Warner miller Says

President :. Warner. Miller Says
Work Has Not Been Suspended.
New YORK, July 14,-The report that
the Nicaragua Canal CONSTRUCTION COM
Dany has stopped all. work on the
Nicaragua canal or account Of lack of
funds was officially denied this morning
by ex-senator Warner Miller, president
OF the company.
0"We have not stopped work entirely,
said Mr.. Miller, although of course,
we have had to lessen the amount of
work. In times of financial stringency
every one has to cut his coat according
to his cloth. Work is now going on on
the breakwater at the entrance to Grey
town harbor, and also on the harbor
Besides that, we have a large number
of men looking after our valuable ma.
chinery. @
1T is not true that the company's
securities are not bought. Persons have
been buying them all along and are
doing SO yet.
AS for the report that there is any
international dissension in the COM
pany. that is untrue. We had to stop
work to a considerable extent at the
time of the revolution i'll Nicaragua.
Our boats ware seized. These boats

eve expect that this will soon be set
tied in satisfactory manner. Then,
when the money situation becomes
little easier. we expect to go ahead with
the work at full blast. Little more than
S5,000,000 has already been expended by
the company"
The board of directors of the Nicara-
qua Canal company held meeting at
the central office of the company today.
the purpose of which was TO devise
plan to raise money with which to
prosecute the enterprise. II. o. Taylor,
former vice president and general man
ager of the company, having been re-
quested to submit to the finance COM
mittee plan for the guidance of the
company, presented plan, the main
features of which are:
l. The company to issue and market
$50, 600, 900 in bonds.
2. The estimate of the cost of the
canal to be fixed at $50, 000, 900, as pres
ent prices and methods allow.
3. The difference between the newly
es lmated cost and the SS5.000,O00 OF
bonds to be used for the payment of in
tereSt during construction.
A.. An active propaganda to be es-
tablIShed all over the country as a pre-
lmlnary to placing the bonds upon the
market.
3. Money obtained from the first sub
serlption to be at once employed in
active work on the line of the canal.
Fhe statement concludes: aa
If the amount of the first Subscrip-
ton is satisfactory the bonds will be
offered at 95. If unsatisfactory at 90.
The amount of bones sold in the second
three months should not be less than
SIG, 600 nor more than $40, 900, 900.
The committee will consider the plan
further.

WORLDS FAIR sPRINTERs.
Eleven Entries for the Big Race
Today.


John S. Barnes. manager of the Phoe-
nix Athletic club, left last evening for
Chicago. His object is to attend the
sprinting tournament that is to be given
at the worlds fair. 1t is styled the
Columbian 1O0-yard championship
sweepstakes, and there are eleven en-
tries. The race occurs today in Chicago,
and there will be another event, also a
sweepstakes. Because of the fact that
many of the speediest sprinters in the
country failed to enter in time for the
Columbian race, the entry books are
kept open until today; Each entry puts
up 500, and there will be large Doodle
depending upon the outcome. Barnes
expects to return TO st. Paul the first of
next week, to complete arrangements
for the events that have been scheduled
for the Phoenix IN the near future.

FOUGHT ON THE TRACK,
And Train Came Along and
Killed Both of Them

NEW ROCHELLE, n. Y.,July 1.-THE
6o'clock express train from Springfield,
on the New Haven road, this morning
struck and instantly killed two men on
the track near Pelhamville. They were
apparently fighting, as they were seen
TO strike each other. The engineer
whistled repeatedly, reversed his en-
CINE and did all he could to stop the
train, but to no effect. The bodies of
the men were thrown ahead of the To-
connective on the track, and the entire
train passed over them. 1t is thought
they were laborers.
