KRUG WILL CONTEST.
He Does Not Propose to Return to
Seattle Voluntarily.

He Does Not Propose to Return to
Seattle Voluntarily.
Adolph Krug, now in the county jail
and being held to await the arrival of
officers from Seattle, has determined to
make il fight against extradition. Krug,
it is charged. made away with $4,000
while acting as city treasurer of Seattle.
and was arrested Monday afternoon by
Frank Crawford, citizen of Seattle,
who met and recognized Krug at the
union depot. Krug was taken by his
captor to a room at the Merchants
hotel and kept there until 2 O'Clock
Tuesday morning, when he was turned
over to the officials at the cen trail
station for safe keeping. Tuesday
afternoon Krug was arraigned in the
police court and ordered committed to
the county Jail, the case being con-
tinued to yesterday afternoon. For
some reason Krug was not brought into
court yesterday, but will, it is under
stood, be arraigned this morning Oh a
warrant charging him with being
fugitive from justice. When first taken
in custody by Crawford Cd Tuesday
krug stated that he would go back to
Seattle without requisition papers, but
since then has evidently changed his
mind, for yesterday afternoon applica-
ton was made to Judge Egan for writ
of habeas corpus. The attorneys for
krug are Harrison IL Moves, and the
writ which was issued is made re-
turnable this afternoon at o'clock.
Notice was served OH Peter Quint.
turnkey at the Jail, to have Krug i'll
court at the hour mentioned. The po-
lice have taken lively interest in the
case since Krug was arrested and
turned over to them, probably on ac-
count of there being reward of $1,000
for his arrest. They claim that friends
of the prisoner have wired him from
Seattle not to make any fight, but to
come back as soon as the officers arrive
in st. Paul, promising that they would
see that he was admitted to bail as soon
as he arrived in Seattle. Chief Garvin
stated last evening that as soon as Krug
was notified of the kilograms he would
probably order the habeas corpus pro-
ceedingS dismissed. Officers from Sc
attic are expected to arrive in st. Paul
this afternoon

a stearps County Palmer.

Attorney General Childs has decided,
upon the statement of facts laid before
him by Secretary Hart, that John Ham
erin, the pauper to whom the town of
Fairhaven, Stearns county, refused aid
on the ground that he was nonresident
of the county, is resident of that town
and should be cared for by that locality.
Mr.. Hart says that this case
illustrates the iHetficiency of the
township aid system. Had Stearns
county the county system, the
question of on-residenceship could not
have been raised, and Hamarin, who Is
very ill, would have received at once
the aid he needs. In the township sys-
tenn burden often falls very heavily
upon a single locality. Mr.. Hart says
that 80 out of 80 counties i'll the state
have the county system. Hennepin
county has the town system, and RAM
sey county has mixed system, st. Panl
paying one.third and the county two
thirds of the expense.

A. C. Rhinehart, of Crookston,
Awarded the Cantract.
The Red river drainage commission
met yesterday and awarde the contract
for excavating Tamarack and Sand Hill
rivers to A. c. Rhinehart, of Crookstop "A
Mr.. Rhinehart tax the contract at 9
aggregate for both rivers of 1i.O71s
cents per cubic yard. There are $780,
600 cubic yards of material to be taken
out of both rlvers, of which 100000 are
to come out by Jan. 1, 1894, and the
remaining 100000 must be out by Aug.
l, 1894. Both rivers CAN be tapped when
the 300, 900 yards are eXcavated; but it
will require the other 100000 to be taken
out to put the rivers in satisfactory con-
dition.
Mr. Rhinehart is req uired to file a
bond of $4,000 within three days. His
securing the bid is fortunate thing for
Drookston, as he will find employm ent
for about all the idle laborers of the
place, aud thus add to the volume of
circulating currency there.

PEACHES ON OUR PRESERVES
The Proposed Cut in the ST. Paul
Collection District.

The Proposed Cut in the ST. Paul
Collection District.
Collector of Customs John g. Ger
agility said yesterday that he has written
to Congressman Kiefer for copy Of the
bill to be introduced by Mr.. Baldwin to
lop off part of the st. Paul district
and attach it to the Duluth district He
has also written Senator Davis relative
to the matter. MIR. Geraghty said that
the posed change would make no
change i'll the emoluments of his office,
but that the st. Paul people would not
tamely acquiesce in curtailing her terri
tory. If Mr.. Baldwin thinks that there
will be no opposition to plan along the
line of making the Duluth district more
important and detract from the district
here he would bc mistaken. According
10 rumor it is intended to strike off a
strip of the border 200 miles long and
attach it to the Duluth district. The
tendency would be to make Duluth the
chief port of entry and reduce st. Paul
and Minneapolis to mere ports for COL
lecting local duties. Mr.. Geraghty re-
fleets the sentiments of other St. Paul
people who think that Mr. Baldwin is
biting OFT more than he can chew in this
matter.

HOW TO SEAT THE NEW MEMBERS.

SEVERAL PLANS SUGGEsTED-MESSES. REED
AND COCHRAN WOULD PUT IN BENCHES.
Washington. Feb ni-Spcakcr Crisp has In his
private drawer In the Rules Committee room h"hoer
of plans outlining on paper suggested changes In the
appearance OF the hap OF Che House of Representatives.
Their existence is due TO the necessity OF providihS
some means fnr the accommodation OF the twenty
three additional members Of In" House who VIII De
entitled TO seats in the LIld Congress. EXspeaker
Reed and ". ROuriic Cochran. of N'w.lork are the
fathers OF the most radical Of all th" plans lh'y
are believers In the system OF sealing members on
benches as Is done in the English Parliament Under
their plan the hall OF the House would not he more
thai half lis lcsen size. and In the space thus left
would be provided reception rooms committee rooms
end writing rooWs where members. when the debates
grew prosy could retire and attend II their CORE
spondonr, The new arrangement would bc great
benefit 10 ti. wcal-voccd members. Who find that
they came, make themselves heard in the present
Immense hail. Mr. Reed and Mr.. Cochran believe
that the change would give He t" the debates and
make the proceedings more Interesting than they now
are with members writing reading and doing almost
everything except listening.
Another plan ContemplatcS the removal OF III" rear
Interior wall of the chamber. II exists at present
and the setting Il the speakers chair and the Clerk
d, sk back about feet In the space now Occnrd Is
a members lobby
The plnn however. which Is likely 10 be adopted.
for the next Congress at least, Is simpler IMAM any
OF tie Others. II merely proposes 70 remove inc rail-
back OF the rear row OF members desks Sufficiently
TO permit twelve seats 10 be- placed In row
en- each side OF the House. This change would give
seats to all the members. would cost only about
81 600 and could be paid for ont OF the contingent
fund of the House on simple order from the
