years. DIR. Fry, member of the new
firm, said last evening that they do not
expect to make much money out of the
hotel for the first year. bat think that
hotel business being now at the bottom
III this city it is bound to go up
again, and will be, profitable. No
change in the desk force or of the
general help is intended at present. but
there will be marked changes in the
interior decorations and furnishings of
the hotel. This eontempates repairs,
decorations, renovating, papering, etc.
New carpets will be secured, the fur
niture will be renewed. and the whole
building will be put in first-claSs condi-
ton. 1t will not be necessary to close
the house. but it will be kept open and
repairs made gradually, continuing
over space of five or six months. 1t
is expected that S25,000 Will be put in
the repairs.
Col. WelZ has made success of hotel
business in this city. He was born in
Berlin, Prussia. He ran the Circle
house in indianapolis. Ind, for five
years, and came 10 st. Paul ten years
ago, taking charge of the Clarendon,
which then in the hands of re-
ceiver. He made money in that house
during the three years he ran it. He
next took charge af the Merchants, and
it had successful patronage under
his management, which continued until
April of last year, when he retired
from that hosiery comparatively
itch man. He has other business inter
ests in the city, but. together with his
son-in-law, will give his whole attention
to the Ryan. DR.. Christian Fry has been
in st. Paul for nine years. He was born
in the state of New York, as were also
his father and grandfather. He was edu-
Gated for a physician, and later owned
a drug store in this city. lie was con-
nected with Col. NelZ in the manage
ment of the Merchants, and has enough
experience IN entertaining the travel
ing public to help make the Ryan one
of the most popular hotels in the coun-
try.

RED RIVER DRAINAGE.
Plans or Commission Appointed
Under Law of Last Winter.

Plans or Commission Appointed
Under Law of Last Winter.
At the last session of the legislature
bill was passed creating what is deslg-
mated as the Red river drainage coln-
mission. 1t was related at the time the
measure vas under discussion in the
senate that there were many of the
water courses tributary TO the Red
river that had been stopped uD owing
TO repeated prairie fires and the like.
The result was that the water that
should have flowed into the river was
backset, and the richest and most fer
tile portions of the valley were rendered
useless for tillage purposes. The COM
mission was authorized to take steps to
omen up these COURSES, and drain the
lands. This commission was 10 have
held a meeting at the Office Of the gov
ernor yesterday, hut that official was at
his home in Alexandria, and the meet
ing was postponed until today or tomor-
row.
Mr. Miller and Mr.. Valentine, of the
commission. state that they have COM
pieted a survey of the location III point,
and that they have mapped out mode
OF procedure. This will be reported TO
the meeting. and then II is likely that
the work wilt at ouce be undertaken
and carried to completion.
Mr.. Valentine SAID yesterday that he
thought that the meeting will be held at
. clock this morning. The PROPOSE
ton will be made" said he, ITO adyer-
tiSe first for proposals to drain some ten
miles in the Sand Hill river district,
and these bids will probably be opened
before the middle OF September. Then
another plan That is about perfected is
to drain eight miles on the Tamara Ok
river i'll Marshall county. We estimate
that this work will open UP
for cultivation from 10000 TO
100000 acres of the most fertile
lands in the state. Moreover, we expect
TO be able to complete this work the
present season. In the Sand Hill river
we will do the work with dredgeS, aud
there is plenty Of water to float the boat
that will be necessary for the draining.
When | explain that the river is five
feet deep and about twenty feet wide,
and that the current is quite strong, you
can have some conception of the over
flow, for at certain point all this water
is lost and spreads out over the adjac mt
country
I'VE will have great difficulty with
the Tamarach river district" pursued
the commissioner" This work will have
to be done with ordinary road graders
ana scrapers. We will cut channel
through the INSTRUCTED portion, and
then there is little probability OF re-
currence OF the present difficult s."

MUST PAY LICENs Es.

All Elevators in the State Will Be
Compelled to Obey the New Law.
The so-calied Peterson bill. regulating
the elevators and warehouses at interior
points i'll the state, is now in full opera
ton and effect. There are something
like LOCO such elevators in the state.
The new law compels all elevators
located on the rights of way of railroads
in the state to take out licenses and
come within state control. OF this 1000
about 500 have taken out licenses in
accordance with the provisions OF the
Jaw. Out of the 200 that are not licensed,
quite large proportion of the owners
have not applied for license in view of
the fact that they are not positive
as to whether they will operate. owing
to the difficulties of the present time in
procuring capital necessary to conduct
the business. The remaining houses
are either operating in w;llful
violation of the law, or through ignor-
ance of the provisions requiring
licenses. The railway and warehouse
commission expected that by the 1st of
September nearly all of these derelict
houses will have taken out licenses. 1t
is understood that the commission,
charged with the enforcement of the
| law, will send out in few days two or
three representatives to look up and re-
port the names of all warehouse men
who have failed to obey the provisions
| of the law, after which the commits
sion will determine the course of action
to be taken to compel conformity
with the law In all its details. While
! this only affects small proportion Of
the elevators and warehouses of the
state, owing to the pretty general COM
| pliance with the law. the drastic coarse
| that the commission is certain to pur-
| sue will create Il great deal of excite
| ment.

chased with His Doodle.
The preliminary examination OF
Fleury, Meiggs and Howard, the three
men charged with the robbery of Mes
senger Lares, OF the Merchants bank.
is set for tomorrow morning in the po-
lice court. 1t is understood that the
examination will be adjourned until the
return of Chief of Detectives McGinn
from New York with Morris and Miller,
the other two members of the gang.
Yesterday afternoon Meiggs, who is III
the county Jail, sent word to the chief
of police that he wanted clean linen
and new, necktie purchased. Meiggs
holds that the 800 taken from him at
the time of his arrest was his own
money, and desires the articles men-
toned purchased from this sum, which
is in the possession of the police Off
Gals. Chief Garvin was not in when
the request from Meiggs was received,
but it is safe TO say the prisoner Will
have to get along without any adai-
tional clothing. at least if it Is to be
purchased from the money found Ill his
possession when arrested.
