THE MIGHTY MAC,
Who Can Only Be Moved by the
Power of the
Courts.
A Mandamus to Compel Him to
Sign the Seeger Con-
tract.

Robert Seeger. who has fiYe-year
contract with the city to furnish aud
care for oil lamps on the streets, made
application yesterday to the district
cOurt. for mandamuS to compel Comp
troller j. j. McCardy TO counterSign the
contract made by the common council
with Mr.. Seeger. The document is a
lengthy one, and sets out in hse. verba
the contract. Attention is called to the
fact that the comptroller refused to
comply with the provision of the BELL"
charter which requires the comptroller
to counterSIgn contracts. Mr.. McCardy
gives as his reason for refusing the con-
tract an opinion that no contract made
for longer time thrn one year is bind
ing or valid. He declared that his sign
ing of the garbage contract, which Is a
three-year instrument, is not to be re-
garded as precedent, and persistently
refused to sign the Seeger contract.
Judge Brill read the petition for
mandamus and has cited the comptroller
to appear Ill special term Of the district
court Saturday at 10 a. m. and show
cause why an alternative writ of man.
damus should not be issued directing
him to counierSign the contract.

FOR DULUTH OFFICES.
Names of the Candidates for the
Land Office.

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, March 30.-Maj. Bald
win filed the papers of A. j. Taylor and
j. l.. Ryan, of Duluth, for register and
receiver, respectively, of the Duluth
land office. and this morning he called
upon Secretary Smith and urged the
appointment of both. In the case of the
present receiver, Mr.. Fraser, he was ap-
pointed to succeed Maj. G. f. Maginns,
who was removed, and for that reason
Congressman Baldwin has no doubt that
an early change will be made.
In the case of the present re-
ceiver, Monroe Nichols, the matter
is slightly different. His predecessor.
Col. Colvllle, resigned, but he did so
under pressure, and the people who
know all abOnt the matter do not heSi-
tate TO say that the circumstances un-
der which Mr.. Nichols received the
Office should insure an early change.
For register Z. p. Alexander has also
entered the race, with the Endorsement
of a great many public men who reside
outside the state, and it is understood
that Maj. MaginniS is again a candidate
for receiver. Maj. Baldwin will urge
the appointment of Messrs. Ryun and
Taylor, because they have, in his Opin-
ion, the strongest Endorsements from
the Democrats of Duluth. Mr.. Taylor
is secretary of the st. Louis a bstract
company, and Mr.. Ryan is prominent
business man, and both are strong
working Democrats. Maj. Baldwin
also filed additional papers in behalf of
Capt. IL. II. Hawkins, candidate for
governor of Alaska.

GOT THE RIGHT MAN.
Hickey on His Way to Arkansas
With the Sheriff.

Special to the Globe.
BUTTE, Mont, March 30.-Sheriff
White, from Arkansas, arrived here to-
day to look into the report that the
murderer of John NJ. Clayton, of Plum
merSville, Ark, had been found here.
After an investigation the sheriff be-
came satisfied that there is something
to the story of Burkhardt in regard to
Frank Hickey. White will start on his
return Sunday with both Hickey and
Burkhardt.
LITTLE Rock, Ark, March 30.-Sher-
if White, of Conway county, who went
to Butte, Mont, with requisition for the
alleged assassin of John NJ. Clayton,
telegraphed the Daily Gazette this
evening as follows:
Arrived at 1890 p. m. Find the
evidence against Hickey good. Hickey
is a man of bad reputation, about thirty
years old, five feet seven inches tall,
light complexion, light hair, red mus
tache, light blue eyes, has rather
downward look, weighs 140 to 145
pounds. The testimony will show that
he and this man here, and one other,
hired a conveyance in Conway and
drove to Brummerville on the night Of
the assassination, andHickey and one.of
the parties slipped up to the house and
murdered Clayton. The witnesses claim
that they got $2.4OO for the job. If
this witness here produces the parties
he claims, he will cOrroborate his state
meut.> There is no doubt that we have
the right man. The witness is we'll
acquainted in Little Rock, but is asked
not to give his name."

NORTHFIELD, Minn., March 30.-
Cannon river is getting rather unruly,
and work has been done all day blast
ing the ice, which had formed a gorge
above the upper iron bridge, between
the two parts of the city. The ice is
breaking up rapidly, and threatened to
carry away the bridge unless the gorge
was prevented. The river Is way out of
its banks. with the water still rising.
ROCHESTER,, Mimi, March 30.-The
Zumbro river is swollen to great size
by the unusually high water. An abut-
ment of the bridge of the Chicago &
Northwestern railway has been washed
away. The passage of trains will be
stopped till damages can be repaired.
The ice in the river did not break UP
until we'll along this morning, but from
that time water has been rushing out
with great force. An accident was mar
rowly avoided ,as heavy passenger and
also freight trains passed over but short
ly before.
FARIBAULT, Minn., March 30.-Can-
non and Straight rivers are booming,
both oyerflowing their banks. The low
lands are flooded; ice and driftwo0d are
passing with current of ten miles an
hour. The rivers have risen two feet in
thee hours today. Bridges and mill
dams are in danger along both streams.

CHOLERA INCREASING.
Fatal Cases of Daily Occurrence
in ST. Petersburg

Fatal Cases OF Daily Occurrence
in ST. Petersburg.
ST. PETERSBURG, March 30.-Cholera
has made its appearance again in this
city, and it is known that fatal cases are
of daily occurrence, although the
authorities have not resumed their
policy of last year Of making regular
daily announcements of the new cases
and deaths. AT present the authorities
are pursuing a policy of suppression
and withhold from the public all infor-
nation as to the spread of the disease.
Very diSquieting rumors have been
received from the interior of
Russia and the ministry of the
interior is taking action which indi-
Gates that the government must possess
special information of the graveSt char
acter. The ministry has ordered the
reopening of the medico sanitary sta
tions in the Volga provinces. where the
cholera carried OFF many thousands asst
year; and special steamers with sani-
tary staffS will cruise in the river, stop
ping along the VOlga to pick up any
cholera patient or any dead from chol-
era-Strlcken vessels plying on that
stream. The government is also caus-
ing to be formed sanitary commissions,
which will look after the health of the
people at the points to be reached
through the railway system of Russia.
WASHINGTON, March 30.-The cable
grams announcing cholera in Austria
and Russiasdo not create any alarm i'll
official circles here. No official con-
tirmatiOn of the news has been received,
but the United States government is
prepared for any ordinary emergency
that may arise. 1t already has agents
at the principal ports of Europe whence
emigrants depart for the United States;
also marine hospital doctors at all the
principal quarantine stations here; and
besides all this the local aut horitieS are
cordially cooperating with the govern
ment in the matter of the enforcement
of the inspection and quarantine regu-
latiOns both on the frontiers and sea-
boards.

mostly present, as the men OF the state
committee were invited to take part.
Mrs. Greenleaf. the chairman of the

thus deprived Of both voice and vote In
the matter.
The Designers description.
The following is the description of
the successful flag, as submitted to the
board by Mrs. Center:
LII looking at this design. | ask you to
judge it as the frieZe designs were
judged, viz: Without regard to color.
as the color of the flag would seem suf-
ficiently important to be voted upon by
the board. | have looked at all the state
flags. The majority of the states have
no legal state flag. The choice of those
remaining are about equally divided
between white and blue. several states
using stripes. Some states have honored
the coors carried by regiments in bat
tie, but these are the exceptions. My
reason for suggesting white and blue
would be that, as 1t floats, it would be
effective at any height, and, so
far as l know, unlike any
other state flag. The star points
in the design are to suggest the North
Star state. The moccasin flower seems
the necessary decoration, as it is the
legal state flower. The arms are his
toric, being copied from the seal in use
when the state was admitted, found in
a manual of the legislature of 1891.

except the gopher. If that wer required
it could be used to replace the eagle
commonly used at the top of the stand.

emphasize the fact that if you choose

post of minister TO Nicaragua, Costa
Rica and San Salvador, while not un-
expected to the Minnesotans in Wash
ingtOn, was received With expressions
OF approval 10y all. because il was taken
as not only 4 tribute to Mr. Baker, but
also as signal of recognition
of the Democracy of Minnesota.
This appointment means that
the administration appreciates the
work that has been done in the state.
and desires to encourage the party in
the future. Mr.. Bakers Endorsements
were of the strongest character, both at
home and abroad, and here in Wash
ington his cause was urged with vigor
by Hon. Dan w. Lawler and Congress
men Hall and Baldwin. Mr.. Lawler,
from the time he arrived until word
reacned him that the president had sent
Mr. Bakers name to the senate, was
unremitting in his advocacy of Mr..
Bakers appointment, and it is not too
much to say that to him more than any
other one is due the appointment. Dur
ing the time National Committeeman
DOran was in Washington he lost no
opportunity to push the matter, and had
he not been called away the nomination
would probably have been made several
days ago.
This morning Hon. Dan W. Lawler
called on Vice President Stevenson, and
at the conclusion of his visit Mr.. Ste
venSOn repaired to the White house to
join in request for the appointment Of
Hon. Lewis Baker. When the vice
president reached the president he
learned that the desired appointment
had been made. The fact that Mr.. Ste
venSOn wasEeady and willing to take a
hand in the matter is considered great
compliment to both Mr.. Baker and Mr..
Lawler. The fact of the matter was
that LaWler had about exhausted the
Democratic senators and made up his
mind TO get in a telling stroke, and the
fact that it was not needed made it none
the less Valnablp

AFTER THE RING.
Charges Filed Against the Pine
Land Gang.
Special to the Globe.


Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON. March so. - Charges
against the pine-land ring of Minnesota
were filed with the secretary of the in
terry by Congressman Baldwin, of the
Sixth district, this morning, who at the
same time secured 4 promise from Sec
rotary Smith that the affairs complained
of will be considered as soon as possible.
In the batch of papers filed the condition
of the Fond du Lac and other IndiBn
reservations is described, and the man
ner in which the timber thieves have
been conducting matters for years past
is outlined. Mai. Baldwin had occasion
to learn the power of the pine-land ring
in his campaign year ago, and
he then made uD his mind that if
he were elected the people of his
district who are opposed to the pine
land ringSterS should have hearing,
and he has enlisted for the war. AL
though timber stealing on the govern.
ment lands and Indian reservations, as
we'll as on the lands granted to Mime
sofa, has been carried on for more than
thirty years and provoked no amount of
scandal in the state, Maj. Baldwin is
the first man sent to congress from the
state who has dared TO enter protest
and demand justice for the Indians as
we'll as the government. There is no
reason to doubt that the specific charges
filed this morning will be investigated
at once by trusty and reliable agents.
Secretary Hoke Smith has come down
very hard on the Montana corporations
cutting the timber on permits granted
by his predecessor, and his poll cy Will
be to head off all these things. The
pine-land ring in Minnesota has had
long and lucrative career, but it will
plunder no more Indian reservations.

WASHINGTON, March 30.-"But, Mr..
President, what are you going to do
with the States that the congressional
delegations are fixing up about the dis
tribution of local patronage"'
y am going to smash them.''
This is the question reported to have
been put to the president by a congress
man, and the reply of the president. 1t
is said to have followed conversation
which had proceeded for some time be-
tween the president and several mem
bers of a certain delegation III congress
over the question of local appointments.
They wanted to know where they were
at" and they found that they were sim.
ply parties and not principals to the
game. To make the matter a little
clearer. they learned that while the
agreement of a delegation upon local
officers may have weight, the president
will not be bound by it. SO plain has
this policy of the president become that
the Alabama delegation has decided to
abandon Its slate heretofore agreed
upon.

HALLoCK, Mimi. March 3O.-TOday
the trial of the Schneider brothers for
the robbery of Nels Orlander Of S2.135 on
the night of Dec. 4. 1892, was begun.
j. B. Schneider went into Orlander's
place of business Sunday afternoon on
the date mentioned, and, while the own
er of the property was asleep, took the
purse containing that amount of cash
from his inside vest pocket. No trace
of the money was found for some weeks
after. when George Schneider, a brother
of the principal in the case, left town.
Prior to his departure his effects were
searched except a>few rolls of butter,
but no money was found. After his de-
parlure it dawned upon the officers
that the mouey might be in the butter,
and so wired the chief OF police at
CroOkstOn to search the butter. where
said officer found the sum of l,020 in
the center of the roll. George was ar
rested and he squealed on the brother,
and stated that sum as his share of the
plunder and told where the rest of the
money might be found. The arrest of
both foIlOmed, and the money will be
placed i'll evidence tomorrow.
