NO AGREHMENr REACHED.
TranscoatinentaI Lines Split Up
Over Worlds Fair Rates.

CHICAGO, Feb. 15.-Although the gen.
eral passenger agents of the transcon-
tinental roads have not been able to
reach an agreement in regard to worlds
fair rates from the Pacific coast and
intermediate points, they will meet
again March to further consider the
subject. In the meantime committee
of five has been appointed to confer
with the worlds fair committee of the
Western Passenger association, and a
Joint meeting will be held next Tues
day. Considerable opposition has de-
veloped to the Southern Pacific'S recon-
mendation that One-fare rate for the
round trip should be adopted from the
Pacific coast. The majority of the lines
argue that a rate of a fare and One-third
is low enough, even from the most re-
mote points. Few of them believe,
however, that such rate can be malIl-
tanned.
The Great Northern representatives
have taken no part in the conferences.
which is an Indication that President
Hill intends to act independently OF all
competitors in making rates for the eX-
position, and that he will make the
rates low enough to secure liberal
proportion of the business for his road.
A still more important matter to be con-
sidered at the meeting of March is
proposition to organize new transcOn-
tinenLal association for the regulation
of passenger traffic. The question was
discussed at the meeting yesterday, and
the views expressed were so uniformly
favorable to the scheme that it was de-
cIded TO give it more serious cOnSidera-
ton at the adjourned meeting.

the exposition board cannot stand such
An expense, so the state will he asked

The board of education met yester
day, intending to select sites for new
schoo! buildings in North and Northeast
Minneapolis, but no action was taken.
SO many sites have been offered the
board that the building committee has
been enabled to make no selection. The
committee hopes TO be able to report at
meeting Saturday. The large prices
asked for the sites also bother the COM
mittee.
Director Gjertsen delivered an ora
tiUn on the subject Of manual training.
He did not think the manual training
department in Minneapolis was doing
as we'll as it might. Recently Director
GjertSen had received some information
about the manual training department
in the Boston schools and considered
the work done there the best in this
country, comparing favorably with the
manual training work of the best Eu-
rOpean schools. Supt. Jordan is going
to Boston today or tomorrow TO attend a
meeting of superintendent. Director
GieItsen requested that the superin
tendent be directed 10 thoroughly eX
anime the manual training department
OF the Boston schools. The Superin-
1endent Will do So, and Will take week
OF more for il, or all the time he waits.
Director GjertSen also voiced his OBJ
jectious to allowing the money now
being raised in the schools for the "Hia-
watha" statue for the worlds fair to go
into anything but bronze statue.
Nothing but plaster cast be exhibited
at the fair. Mr.. Gjertocn WAS informed
that his qualms Of conscience had come
too late. Most OF the money las been
collected and turned over to the ladies'
auxiliary.
The board has decided to be repre-
sented in the Minnesota educational
manual, to be given away at the fair, at
a cost OF $50.

O'DONNELL'S PART.
An Attempt to Show That he
Was Acting as Newspaper
Correspondent.
Evidence Showing That He Pro-
teCted the PinkertonS Alter
the Surrender.

PITTsBURG. Feb. 15.-The defense in
the O'Donnell trial attempted to show
that O'Donnell was correspondent
aid was at Homestead the day OF the
rlnt acting in that capacity. A number
OF he aSpaper men were called as wit
nesoes. and it was shown that previous
to the riot he had been doing work for
the Tri-State News bureau and
several Pittshurg papers. Robert
W. Herbert, of the Pittsburg
Dispatch, was OH the stand when
court opened. He testified that on the
afternoon of July 8 he was i'll the
cupola when O'nonnel came to him,
and being displeased with an interview
he had written, collected some men and
offered to throw him down the cuppla
stack. The men expressed willing
ness to do so. Under cross
examination the witness said
he accepted the threat as a
joke. Richard Collins, a reporter for
the Pittsburg Chronicle-Te!egraph,
testified to having been in the mill dur
ing the evening when O'D0nnell made
his speech, advising that the Pinker-
tons be allowed to cut loose the harges
and float down the river; Ac-
cordng to the witness O'Donnell said:
" . HoFO Aooo hSee'hJ oiio 'iAN
PinkerIons have too. Let's let them
go, and have no more bloOd5ht d. A
man in the assembly called out mo,
burn Jhe bloody buggers." WHO is
that man?" cried O'Donnell. He was
shown, and O'Donneli SAID: You go
down and kill them yourself. We have
been trying all day. We will waltz Aft
erward it was agreed 10 let tthePinkertons
surrender. and O'DOnpell SAID they
must be protected. Ii. B. Layton. of
Chicago; w. W. Wood, of Newcastle,
aud several employees of the Carnegie
company testified to seeing ODOnnell
on the river bank and behind the barri-
cade during the riot. Court here ad-
journed for dinner.
At the afternoon session Mr.. O'Don-
nell's wife was present in the court
room for the first time during the trial.
Several newspaper men were eX-
amined, the general trend of their
evidence going to show that
O;Donnell interfered to project the
PinkertonS at the time of the latter's
surrender. Edward o. Christy. re-
porter, testified that at midnight on the
night OF the fight. he interviewed
O'Donnell at the labor leaders
home. There was rifle lying on table
which O'Donnell SAID the Pinkerton
chief had given him. Witness asked if
it was loaded, whereupon the defendant
replied, Il have no use for any other
kind" The prosecution having rested,
court adjourned until tomorrow.

1T WAS A JOKE.
That Story About Lottie Collins
NOT ReiD0 IN MinneapOlis

That Story About Lottie Collins
Not Reing IN minneapolis.
Last night an evening paper promul-
gated story to the effect that the rea-
son for the non-appearance of Miss
Lottte Collins at the Grand this week is
the jealousy between her and Mrs. Car
ter. The unique feature of the story was
that Miss Collins had not come to Min
neapolis at all, and that the story
of her illness at the West was all a
stall" The story does not appear to
be true for these reasons: Col. West.
who has seen Lottie Collins before, says
the woman at the West is Lottie Col
Inns. Dr.. Staples has been treating a
woman who is i'll in Room 204 at
the West, and he knows that that
woman is i'll. He thinks he
has every reason for believing that the
woman is Lottie Collins. 5. p. Cooney,
manager of the Miss Helyett" conf
pany, is, as is well known, the husband
of Lottle Collins. On the West hotel
register, Room 204 is charged TO S. p.
C0oney and wife. The sick woman i'll
that room is put down as Mr.. Cooney's
wife. Mr.. Cooney says tnat she is his
wife and that she is Lottie Collins, and
he should know.
AS matter of fact. Miss Collins is
quite ill. She has been under the ply
Sician'S care all the week. Yesterday
all operation was performed on her
throat which has afforded her much re-
lief. Her appearance during the en-
gagement of the Miss Helyett" COM
pany in st. Paul is said to be doubtful.

The Pound Matter.

The special committee of one alder
man from each ward, appointed at the
last meeting of the council to consider
Aid. Flanders central pound ordinance
and tile substitute offered by Aid.
Gray, met yesterday afternoon. Both
ordinances were discussed pro and con.
The committee could not agree. Some
favored the ordinance presented by
Aid. Flanders, and others thought the
Gray ordinance, placing the duties OF
poundmasters under the police depart
ment, the better scheme. Aid. Haynes
and several other members of the COM
mittee favored tina plan of making the
street commissioner of each ward also
poundmaster, without extra compenSa-
ton, but with the privilege of hiring an
assistant to lead the stray cattle and
fowls to the pound. The matter was

Cough to investigate the truth of Otto
Faulkenburg's statements regarding
the hanging of John Davidson by mob

Faulkenburg was the leader of the
White Cappers who were repulsed by
John Underhill near Branchvllle last

his confession of the hanging hoping
thereby to escape sentence for White

whether it be fear or anger. the NUT
