OPPOSED TO AN INCREASE.
Higher Tax on Whisky Not Fa-
vored by Distillers.

LOUISVILLE, Feb. 1.-Two hundred
distlllers and wholesale whisky dealers
from all parts of the country met in the
board Of trade exchange building this
morning for the purpose of voic-
ing protest against an increase
of the government tax on whisky by
congress and to adopt measure where
by the operations of TIE Distilling and
Cattle Feeding company, usually known
as the whisky trust, may be check
mated. A permanent national organiZa
ton will be effected before the cOnven
tion adjOurns.
Hon. Charles B. Poyntz. of Maysville,
KY, was elected permanent chairman
of the convention, and Charles Perrin,
of Kansas City,vice president. A num-
Der of resolutions directed against the
whisky trust and an increase Of taxation
were referred to the proper committee.
A resolution presented by representa-,
tive of the Milwaukee Liquor Dealers
and DistillerS' association provided That
the convention recommend to congress
the reduction of the tax on whisky fro m
80 cents per gallon to 80 cents.
The committee on resolutions pre-
scented a protest against an increase in
the tax on whisky 1t was stated that
an increase would bring about the
immediate tax payment OH about 200,-
0O0,000 gallons of spirits before the law
could go into effect, thereby with
drawing from circulation some
s1SO,OO0,O0O, and creating commercial
panic such as this country has never
seen. The report was long one, and
some sections were stricken out before
lis adoption. The delegates were ban
quoted at the Gait house this evening,
The convention will probably continue
in session three days.

TWAS LONG AGO.

AID. Rollins became the happy pos
SCISSOR the other day of an old. time
worn book that reminded him of the
so-called good old days of long ago. 1t
was the Minnesota Official Record and
Business Advertiser, published by An
thony Suchaneck, in 1879. Anthony
Suchaneck is recorded in the book as
the proprietor of clothes-cleaning
and repairing establishment, whose
place of business was at 20 Washington
avenue south. In spite Of the appar-
ent lowly condition of the publisher and
editor he was a man of merit, as his
book will bear evidence. The preface
says that the work is the first attempt
of the author in the field of authorship,
and he hopes the reading public will
receive his literary production kindly.
The book is replete with splendid illus
trations of the leading officials of the
state, county and city from 1856, the
year of the incorporation of the town Of
Minneapolis, to the time of the publica-
ton of the work, 1879.
The city Of st. Anthony is also given
considerable space, and the results of
each election OF the town are truthfully
recorded. In fact, there is an odor OF
the dead past about the leaves of the

If the aldermen who voted to confirm
the list of fire department appointments
at the last meeting of the council mag
inc the matter Will be dropped they are
badly mistaken. An alderman has
taken up the cudgel in defense
of the discharged firemen, and
next Monday night he will have reso-
luton in readiness that will cause the
fur to fly. 1t will make Aid. Woodward
squirm and turn red there is no doubt.
An alderman will introduce resOlu-
ton calling for an investigation of the
fire department., its chief and certain
member of the fire committee. This res
olution will ask that the matter of APP
pointmentS and discharges be looked into
and if anything is wrong to have it rem
edied. This alderman stated yesterday
that he considered the action of the
council at the last meeting as unpar-
donable. The matter should have been
allowed to rest and the list published in
order that public scrutiny could be
made OF the appointments. He knew
of his own personal knowledge there
were more than six men discharged
when the list was produced in the cOun-
Gil in spite of what was said to the con-
trary by Aid. Woodward.
If the council refuses to pass his reSO-
luton he will have the satisfaction of
seeing the names of every alderman
who votes against it recorded IN the

Ulster Ultimatum.
LONDON, Feb. 2.-Lord Londonderry.
Conservative, resumed the debate on
the address in the house of lords. He
spoke of the last convention Of Ulster
Unionists over which he presided, and
declared that the men Of Ulster were
ready to fight to the last notch
the proposed Dublin parliament.
They wished blood rather than
allow the impairment of the censtitu-
ton to which Ulster owed its present
prosperity. and he could find only the
words of commentator for their de-
vOton TO the best interests Of the en-
pire. Most Of the speeches following
were commonplace, although the Con-
Servatives showed occasional bitterness.
In passing reference to the home rule
bill, Lord Herschell asked the house to
consider, irrespective of party. the dan
ger that would be incurred by neglect
ing to satisfy the just aspirations of the
Irish people. Irishmen had carried
their hostilities into the colonies
of the empire and were sowing
the seeds of discomfort more
energetically every day that the reali-
cation of their hopes was deferred.
God forbid" he added, "that any diff
Guilty should arise between Great Britain
and the great English-speaking nation
across the Atlantic, but should such
difficulty arise, we should find that the
hostility to England Of Irishmen in the
United States would aggravate the dis
pute UNNECESSARILY" After Lord Her.

ANNEX CANADA.
Nj. w. Hteagher Expatiates on the

Nj. w. Hteagher Expatiates on the
Reasons Wherefore.
The news from Washington of the
development of the Canadian anneXa-
ton spirit has made at least one man
happy. During the past three years NJ.
W. Meagher has in one form or another
propagated that idea. The Canadian
American Reciprocity league was
founded by him, and through it many
influential Minneapoltans became in
terested in the question, not only OF eX-
tended commercial relations with the
Dominion, but Of ultimate political
union of the two countries.
Whenever occasion presented the OPP
portunity Mr.. Meagher recounted the
vast treasures which bountiful nature
has deposited in his native land, but
which, owing to lack of development,
are still locked upin her bosom. He
states that this lack of development Is
in no way attributable to the Canadians,
but to the fact that European lmml-
grants cannot be induced to enter the
Dominion, believing,in their ignorance,
that Canada. being Il British colony. Is
governed by monarchlcal institutions,
which are analogous to their own, and
to escape the tyranny of which, they
sunder the ties of blood and kindred
and Quit their native shores
annex Canada" he says. land With
In ten years the Canadian Northwest
will contain a greater population than
does the whole Dominion today. Mill
neapolls and st. Paul are the natural
market for that vast territory, and
would, within like period of time, con-
tain a population of not less than 1000
600. Let it be once known that that
country is an integral part of the great
republic, and the tide Of immigration
would thitherward set in, and its fertile
soil would be pre-empted by home
makers and the worlds wheat pro-
ducerS."
Mr.. Meagher does not favor any action
on the part of congress looking to Cana
dian annexation being taken at present.
He says that any active steps toward
political union should be taken by Can
ada only. Otherwise counter spirit
would be most probably engendered III
Canada, if not in England.
He was to go to Canada during the
last month to deliver series of lectures
on reciprocity and annexation, as was
announced at the time in the GLOBE,
but his duties in forming the
Inter State Law Advisory aSso-
citation prevented his doing so.
Certain it is the spirit of annexation has
developed wonderfully in Minneapolis
during the past few months, and that
the cities would be the great gamers on
this side of the present boundary line is
obvious upon the slightest reflection. 1t
is here the whole Northwest would
market their products. and here is
where they would make their purchases.
In view of these self-evident, facts. the
statement made by Mr.. Meagher that
inside of ten years the Twins would
contain population exceeding 100000
is not over, but rather under the mark.

ROME BANK SCANDALS.
Five Million Francs Said to Have
Been Spent to Strengthen the
Government.
Marquis de Rudini Says He Never
Handled Any Of the
Money.

ROME, Feb. 2.-The committee of the
chamber appointed to consider the sub
iect has reported in favor of delivering
Deputy Zerni to the public prosecutor
to be dealt with In the courts. on the
charge of having received large brides
to induce him to support the interests of
the Banca Romano in legislation. The
excitement regarding the bank scandals
is increasing. 1t was reported in the
chamber of deputies today that SCR.
Tanlongo, the imprisoned governor of
the Bank of Rome, had given evidence
to the examining magistrate against
several of the most conspcu-
Gus statesmen in Italy. Proof
was said to have been found
that Tanlongo had provided at least
three Italian premierS with money to be
spent in the public service. In the last
few years these sums had aggregated
100000 francs, most of which had
been spent to strengthen the govern
ment in the chamber. Sgr. Guerci,
after abiding to these reports,
asked the government whether or not
there was truth in the current report
that the ministers had used the funds of
the Bank of Rome for election purposes.
SCR. Gi0litti answered that he must de-
cline to consider seriously such calum-
MES, and therefore ignore the interpret
lation.
The Marquis di Rudinl, who immedi-
ateIy preceded SCR. Giolitti as premier,
in spirited speech defended himself
against the suspicion of receiving any
part of the 5,000,0 900 francs said to have
been paid to recent Italian premiers.
He had never, directly or indirectly, he
said, received a lire from the Bank of
Rome, either for private or public pur-
poses. His hands were clean, as those
endeavoring to calumniate him would
ascertain if they would. He courted
investigation and hoped that the cham
Der would institute Immediately an in
curry into his official career. Signor
Tanlongo's papers have been sent to
Paris to prevent their coming into the
hands of the examining magistrate. 1t is
said that before the removal of them,
they were offered to the Vatican, which
was expected to use them against the
Liberals. The Vatican. however, re-
fused the offer. Signor Zessa,a lawyer,
was arrested here this evening for hav-
ing acted as intermediary between
Deputy Zerni and the Bank of Rome,
from which Zerni is said to have re-
ceived 400, 900 francs in three years.

THE CITY HOSPITAL.
Some Words on Ii from a Medical
Point ofVieW.

Medical papers gre beginning to take
notice of the Minneapolis city hospital.
The GLOBE has repeatedly called atten-
ton to the disgracefuI condition of the
city hospital, and has shown up the
iniquitous course OF Republican alder
men who refused to allow all approprl-
alton for new one because the money
would be expended by Democratic
board of corrections and charities. The
current number of Health and Home,
the magazine recently started in Mime
apolis, has something to say of this in
stitution. 1t says:
minneapolis is proud, progressive
city. She usually does things on big
and beneficent scale. At one point,
however. she has been lamentably
amiss. The Minneapolis city hospital is
the point. If half that has been told OF
the true inWardnesS of this institution
is correct, it is a disgrace of the first
magnitude. AS matter OF fact, no one
has attempted to dispute the statements
that have been published from time to
time in that connection. The plea has
been set up by way of defense that the
city has no funds available for the pur-
pose of erecting suitable hospital
building.s The defense is a poor one.
for Minneapolis enterprise has repeat
eddy found ways and means of doing
things that needed to be done in the
face of insurmountable obstacles. But
granting that the financial obstacle was
final and fatal as to a new building, that
does not excuse the authorities for not
making temporary arrangements for the
proper care of patients at the regular
hospitals of the city. The present city
hospital ought to have been closed up
tight long ago. 1t is not fit place for
a human being to be housed. The other
day the papers reported three deaths at
the hospital in single day. The Won
der is that this is not daily experience.
1t is little less than crime of high de-
gree to let the disgrace continue. The
fact that politics has had much to do
with the delay does not palliate the
crime In the least"

POOH BAH NiOSHER.
There Are Objections to His Draw
ing Two Salaries.

There Are Objections to His Draw
ing Two Salaries.
The conservative members of the COM
mon council nave serious objections TO
one man holding two offices and draw
ing two salaries. At the meeting of the
council next Monday night an attempt
will be made to trim down the salary, or
rather salaries, at present enjoyed by
A. Ct. MoSher. Mir. MOSher is in one
sealer of weights and measures, also the
official city WeighmaSter. For the first
position he draws salary Of 81, 800
year, and Tor WeighmaSter he draws
5000 more. a year ago when the posi-
ton of city weighma5ter was created
the Office Of Seaier of weights and meas
ures was conducted on the fee system.
1t was decided to turn oyer the former
also to Mr.. MOSher, and so it was done,
accompanied by the 5000 year salary.
Now the Office of Sealer of weights ana
measures has been changed to a sal
aried one, and allows MIR. MoSh2r the
distinction Of being the only city Off
cal who draws pay for two offices.
At the next council meeting a resolu-
ton will be introduced asking that the
salary of the city Weigher be abolished
and the duties OF the office be attached
to that ef the sealer of weights and
measures without extra compensation.
There will probably be fight On, this
matter, for Mosher has a number Of
friends in the council who are interested
in seeing him retain his two Salariei.
The office of Sealer of weights and meas
ures is quite an important one, and if
properly handled, should bring into the
city treasury over S2,4O0 year. 1t re-
mains to be seen how thoroughly Mr..
Mosher, under salary, sweeps.
