to discharge HIS assistant, c. 0. Hunt
ress, for the reason that he was rabid
Republican and not competent to fill the
position. There has been bad blood be-
tween Rollins and Huntress for some
time, and the former thought it only
fair he should have his scalp. Mr.. Cap
pelen was called before the caucus and
Informed of the wishes of the men who
put him in his present position. He de-
clined positively to discharge any of his
men. He said they were all capable
and he did not intend to appoint any
new ones. He INTENDED to run the office
to suit himself, and he hoped the alder
men would find him capable.
This frank statement Oh part OF Mr..
Cappelen acted on the assembled SOlOns
like red rag on All enraged bull. They
got mad. 1t is only fair to say, how
ever, that all those present did not coin
eide in the demands for general
slaughter of innocents in the engineer
ing office. During the squabble that
followed MIR. Cappelen's declaration,
Aid. Rollins, president OF the caucus,
rendered his resignation. 1t was ac-
copied as quick as a flash, and Aid.
Lackey was chosen TO fill the position.
All these matters were discussed at
the meeting last night; also the scheme
of taking the power OF appointing coun-
Gil committees out of the hands OF the
president of the council. No agree
ment was reached, however, Aid. In
genhutt's hasty withdrawal causing a
general breakup of the meeting. The
aldermen were very reticent over what
business had been consummated when
they emerged from the committee ROOM

head of Capt. Lewis Rober, who has for
the past eight years had charge of the
Third street engine house. He was dis
charged for reasons best known to the
chief" 1t is an easy matter to guess
what these reasons are. In speaking of
Capt. ROBBERS discharge, an old fireman
said yesterday:
"Rober has done more hard fire fight
ing in one night than Runge ever did.
He is one of the best tiremen in the city,
and the chief and all the firemen know
it,"
Jim Slater. one of the drivers at head
quarters, was also discharged Yesterday
as was Assistant Engineer Mayo, of No,
10. Knute Nelson, one of Runge's IA
vorites, was promoted from the ranks
to lieutenant of No. 8. Among others
who received notices that their services
were of no further value to the depart.
ment were two of the best known cap
tains in the city, namely Capt. Mike
Hanley, of No. l, and Capt. York, of No.
s. The reasons for letting these men
out are the same as in the other cases.
They we're friends of Frank Stetson.
1t is said that Aid. Woodward, of the
council committee on fire department,
is around with his little Ratchet. When
he was running for alderman of the
Seventh ward it is said certain members
of Chemical Company No. l, whose To-
cation Is in that ward, were asked to
work for Woodward. They refused, it
is said, for reasons best known to them
selves, and now they are to pay the
penalty. They will be asked to get out
as soon as possible. Two of the firemen
who Will receive their discharge papers
are Smith and Nolan.
In spite of all this the Republicans
howl: Take the department. out of
politics." 1t seems that it would be
better to take the department out of the
control of vindiotive politicians first of
all.
If this policy continues much longer,
trouble for Runge or the citizens gener-
ally will follow. The insurance men
have an interest in the fire department..
They have been pricking up their ears
on account of these dismissals, and are
already talking. Many Of the Insurance
men-most of them, it may be said-did
o-inconsiderable wire pulling in the
interest of the retention of Runge.
While they were anything but pleased
two years ago when Frank Stetson was
summary cut off. after years of faithful
and efficient service, they had nothing
personal against Runge. They favored
him this year because he was tine reign
ing chief and wanted to See upheavals
in the departmsfif avoided. But they
are sorry for it now. They will, If
Runge persists in his mad career, call
upon the council to put stop to this
Wanton throat cutting in the interest OF

porary Allimony.
Yesterdays special term calendar, the
first one of the new year, was, beyond
two or three divorce cases, the principal
of which was the HELEN case. somewhat
dry and marked by nothing out of the
usual run.
The suit of Clara E. against Benjamin
II. HELEN came up about IL o'clock be-
fore Judge Hicks on motion by the
plaintiff to be allowed S25 per week
temporary alimony~and $500 attorneys
fees. Hunt q Morrill, were the attor-
neys for Mrs. HELEN. and Brooks q
Hendricks for the husband. A motion
was at once made by the de-
PENDANTS to dismiss the motion
made by the plaintiffs on the
practical grounds of reinstatement of
facts. 1t was followed by long and
Just a little heated argument but was
finally denied by Judge Hicks, and Mrs.
Hellen's attorneys proceeded to show
why she should be allowed the alimony.
During the statement of the facts to
the court it was alleged that Mrs.
HELEN had on five or six different occa-
sions threatened to begin suit for a
divorce, and in one case had even in
structed her attorneys to draw up the
complaint, but the matter was peace
fully settled. The plaintiff alleged that
Ben HELEN not only owned cOnsidera-
BILE property in his own name, but that
he had $4,000 worth of real estate
and $4,000 worth of cash and bank
stocks 10 the name of one Melinda HELEN

General Manager Goodrich. of the
street railway company, yesterday
affixed his name to the recently
amended and adopted transfer ordi-
nance. This makes it law. and today
the new transfer scheme will 90 into
effect. The company yesterday made
the following official announcement:
1.-The transfer points at Hennepin ard
Washington, Hennepin and Third
street. and Washington and First ave-
nue. south will remain unchanged, with
the exception of that at First avenue
south, and the only change at this point
will be In the matter Of interurban

conductor.
'In addition to the above. agents will

nue. north line will also issue transfers
to the Robbinsdale line, and the Uni

He further alleges that the following
comprised all his property: A library,

$500; two pianos, $1,000; office furni-
ture, $50; a one-third interest in $1,000

house and lot at 1896 Stevens avenue is
in Mrs. Hellen's name and is unincum-
berCd.
Judge Hicks, after patiently listening
to the numerous arguments, allowed
Mrs. HELEN $3.50 per week temporary
alimony and 800 attorneys fees.
Next came a motion on the part OF
Mr.. Brooks to dismiss the writ of No
eXeat issued about one week ago, and
here again were exhaustive arguments
presented. The motion was finally
granted and the writ ordered set aside
and vacated. HELEN can now do as he
pleases until the time for the trial of the
case arrives.

Not a Nuisance.

Yesterday Judge Hooker decided the
case of Lindgren VS.. The S. Z. Barrett
Manufacturing Company in favor of the
defendant. Lindgren sued for nearly
$1,000 damages and perpetual injune-
fend ants factory. The 5. E. Barrett
Manufacturing company manufactures
tarred paper and sidewalk, street and
roofing materials at Nineteenth avenue
south and the river. Llndgren owns a
tenement row near by. He complained
that he had been damaged by the prox-
unity of the factory and that the SCOT
and smoke from the factory, the odor of
the materials used and the danger from
fire made the factory nuisance. Judge
Hooker couldn't see it.

The Democratic members of the COM
mon council, it would seem, are emu
lating the squabbling tactics Of their Re-
publican brethern. They held another
caucus last night at the city hall, and
the meeting ended in a small row. 1t
ended in the retirement of Aid. Ingen-
hutt from the room and caucus, and de-
clarng he was forever done with the
Democrats and their methods. AID.
Ingenhutt, however, was laboring under
an excess of choler, and when he gets
down to sober thought he will, no
doubt, have changed his sentiments.
Aid. Ingenhutt's ire was awakened by
some statement made by one Of the al
dermen. 1t reflected somewhat on the
quick tempered Germans intentions
concerning a matter that was under dis
cussion. lie resented it, and after a
fervid speech left the room.
At the meeting held Friday night
there was also a storm. 1t came up over
the appointment Of Bridge Engineer

men demanded that he discharge the
greater portion of his clerical and en-
cheering forces and give them an op

RUNGE's SHARP AXE.
1t Is Pushing the Fire Department
Into the Political Nire.

The maudlin rubbish spouted by the
Republicans about keeping the fire de-
partment out of politics was evidently
only meant to apply in the event of a
Democratic council. The department is
being pushed in the political mire deeper
and deeper every day, and if the present
system. inaugurated and executed by
Chief Runge, is carried on, thu men who
will attempt to put out the city's fires
will be politicians and ward heelers. AS
stated in yesterdays GLOBE, Chief
Runge has assumed the airs and AFRO
gance of dictator. and is using the pol
itical knife with deadly persistency and
rapidity. He cuts like an old-tlme wheat
GRADER. The unfortunate fremen who
followed the dictates of their own mind
and allowed themselves to wish that

NOTICE TO BEN H.
He Must Not Be Mean to Canada
judge Fish's Court.

IL N uSC NOC DE Nuean 10 SauuO0-
Judge Fish's Court.
The board of trade of Minneapolis
has served notice on Benjamin Harri
son, president of the United States, to
"quit his meanness." Word came over
the telegraph wires yesterday morning
the president was about to suspend the
privilege of shipping Canadian freight
in bond over American railways. That
was the signal for special meeting of
the board. A t the board meeting sew
ersl speakers, Joel B. Bassett and John
denounced the proposed action of
/! the president. Mr.. Bassett de-
clared that retaliatory measures against
Canada had gone far enough. This par
ticular move would injure Minneapolis.
Mr. Pillsbury declared that it would
seriously affect the 500 road. Although
aimed at the Canadian Pacific. it would
affect the 500, because the two are one.
/ He believed the proposed action had
been inspired by the Eastern roads.
1.-THE following resolutions were imme-
tdiately drawn up and ordered tele-
graphed to the president:
ITO His Excellency, the President of
the United States
The Board of Trade of Minneapolis
has unanimously adopted the following
resolution:
: "Whereas, The commercial interests
of the Northwest require unrestricted
access to the seaboard for farm products
and the liberty TO freely use the shortest
route to any seaboard in the United
States, although such route may pass
through. Canada; and
'.Whereas, The present policy of the
government guarantees such liberty OF
traffic, and has greatly subserved the
best interests of the Northwest; be it
, I.Resolved. That the Board Of Trade
of Minneapolis looks with great concern
sen the runi6rs of change in that policy
g By the government, land respectfully asks
the president Of the United States not

car at some point between Midway
station and Cedar avenue. No transfers
will be issued on the east-bound trip on
interurban cars, and none will be ac-
cepted on the west-bound trip on inter
urban cars.
when leaving Minneapolis inter-
urban conductors will collect cash fare
from every person on the car, and to
those carrying properly punched trans
fers, who wish to leave the car at some
point between Cedar avenue and Mid
way station, fare will be refunded on
presentation of transfer at the time they
leave the car. No money will be re-
funded in case passenger leaves the ear
before reaching Cedar avenue or after
passing Midway station"

ne traffic of the Northwest to the sea-

the traffic of the Northwest to the sea-
board"
After this had been done, Judge
Daniel Fish gave notice that he would
introduce, at the next meeting of the
board, a resolution calling for an
abandonment of the organization. The
board of trade had outlived its useful
ness. Interest in it seemed failing. A
dozen men could not handle big city's
affairs without making mistakes. The
business union could take up any of the
boards work left uudone. Several i'm
promptu indignation meetings directed
toward Judge Fish were held after adj
journment. Judge Atwater declared
the board of trade was dignifed body,
and that the business union, an incor-
porated affair. was subordinate. A row
will ensue at the next meeting OF the
board.

avalanche of dismissals for political

BOGUS COLLECTORS.
They Are Swindling Druggists
and Others Of the City Again.

There is evidently work for the super
visor of internal revenue in this city.
Several complaints have been made re-
Gently to United States Commissioner
Odell that bogus revenue collectors are
at work in the city again, coercing the
delinquent taxpayers to come to the
front with not only the taxes but the
penalties aecruing from neglect to pay
when the taxes are due, namely in May
of each year. Commissioner Odell
stated yesterday that it was not his
business to look after these men, nor the
collection of the special revenue taxes.
The United States marshal and the
revenue collector were hired for that
purpose. He will, however, notify the
revenue people of st. Paul, so they may
look up the cases reported to him.

The DAM concerts this season have
started out very auspiciously. There
has been a large attendance at the two
concerts already given, and the enthus-

entire series will be literally supported.
The programmes have been artistic and

more vivacity than before, seemingly;
at any rate, the concerts have given
great satisfaction to all classes of music

Announcement Extraordinary !

During the past 10 years. according to the
mercantile agency, two hundred firms engaged
IN the clothing, furnishings or hat trades IN
his city have retired from business.
Their stocks have frequently been offered
to US at wholesale at very low prices, but in
only two instances has the merchandise pos
Bessed sufficient merit to warrant our pur.
chasing at the prices named.
About two years ago, when the well-known
firm of Simpson Il Henderson disposed of
their stock, they found the plymouth" a
quick cash buyer, for their stocks of merchan-
disc were first-class in every particular and in
harmony with their long established repu-
taton.
For the same reason we have just bought
out the Peoples Clothing House, and the en-
tire stock has been removed to the ''Plym-
outh" counters.
The deal was for spot cash, and it is need
less to add the price was low.
