AN OCEAN TRAVELLER.
w. Nj. Ronald, of Winnipeg, Who
Has Made Thirty-FOur Trips
Across the Atlantic

w. NJ. Ronald, of Winnipeg. Who
Has Made Thirty-Four Trips
Across the Atlantic.
On Thursday last there passed through
St. Paul, on his way to Winnipeg, man
who has probably seen as many ocean
voyages as any business or layman in
the United States or the Dominion of
Canada. He stopped IN st. Paul but one
day to pay flying visit to his brother.
The gentleman spoken of is w. NJ. Ron
aid, brother of AL Ronald, who is the
genial and popular night clerk at the
Brunswick hotel, and he was on the
hOmeward trip from Europe, where he
had been for three months past purchaS-
ing crOckery for the large establishment
he has in Winnipeg. In conversation
with friends he stated that this was the
seventeenth trip he had made to Eu-
rope, thus crossing the Atlantic ocean
thIrty-fOur times. This is quite a rec
ord for man in general business, and
also shows the magnitude Of the trade
in which he is engaged. He told many
amusing stories of the habits and GUS
toms of the English business men as i'll
comparison with those of this country.
For instance, after purchasing an enor-

moments of conversation. Sitting at
the table, the British proprie
tor aud salesman ordered four
bitter beers common in that country,
four cigars, and several other delicacieS,
but he uttered never a word of invita-
ton to the traveller from American
shores to join him in the feast. Why"
said MIR. Ronald, ''if that had been in
this country | would have been dined
and wined to the utmost limit, aud
forced to accept hospitality that did
not really desire. But then that simply
illustrates the customs of the country,
and, think, for a clear head and gen.
eral satisfaction it is probably better
than our custom" Mr.. Ronald left last
evening for his home, after expressing
great satisfaction with The general busi-
ness appearance and buStle of st. Paul.

ator Ignatius Donnelly. however, does

often said in some of his most drastic
speeches that the country most governed
is best governed. This is in direct OPP
position to the old adage, but no one
questioned the Sage's honesty IN his
declarations in this particular.
This thought leads Sequentially to
the explanation that Senator D0nnelly
proved a valuable member of the body
the past session. Hewas persistent in
the famous inqnisition INTO frauds of

pine land steals and the coal combine
iniquities has made him hitter enemies

in like manner it has maue him admir-

Mr.. Donnelly insists that money

Whether it has the effect to reduce the
price of anthracite or not. it has opened
the eyes of the people to the enormlty

IS 1T RIGHT OR WRONG?

Much Doubt Surrounds an AL
legged Murderer's Capture.
The two men, j. II. Fisher and Mark
McGlenn, arrested by Special Officer
Sheehan. of the Milwaukee road, Thurs
day night, were arraigned in the police
court Yesterday on a charge of va
grancy. The arrests were made by
Sheehan, he having suspicious that the
one giving his name as Fisher was one
of the parties concerned in the murder
of policeman ill the Milwaukee, freight
yards at Dubuque, To-, during the night
of April Is. Two OF the gang were
captured, but a third member, whose
name is supposed to be Kent. escaped.
The description Of the man Kent sent
out by the railroad cOmpanystallIes we'll
with Fisher. One of the peculiaritieS
mentioned Ia the circular is that Kent
is an inveterate cigarette smoker, and
that his fingers are stained from the
tobacco. The circular also states that
Kent had q. cut or wound on his right
hand. - @ Il.
The man Fisher when arrested had
his right hand done up in a bandage,
and his fingers were we'll stained from
the constant smoking of cigarettes.
Chief OF Detectives MCGinn made light
OF the arrest yesterday. and said it was
impossible for Fisher to be the one
wanted, as Fisher was over six feet in
height. while the circular Said~Kent was
only five feet five inches. McGinn,
however, talked through his hat, as the
man he calls Fisher happens to be Nc
Glenn. A telegram from Chicago last
night to Detective John DOugberty, of
the Milwaukee road. stated that j. Ii.
Fisher had not been at work since
March %, when he bad the tips of two
fingers on his right hand cut off while
coupling cars. McGlenn, the telegram
said, had quit work on the night of
April 10. Although 1t is very probable
neither of the men were concerned in
the murder. Dougherty thinks Fisher
answers the description in the circular
of the missing member of the party,
whose name is supposed to be Kent.
The two men will have hearing on
charge of vagrancy i'll the police cou4t
LnlS morning.

he usually called at the auditors office
10 get the bills that were left there for
him, and, after figuring them up,
turned them over to the committee on
claims, and they afterwards went to the
board OF commissioners.
On crOss-eXamination Mr.. Dries was
asked to count the pages in the June
calendar for the year 1891, which is the
one referred to in the indictment under
consideration. He counted up and adj
mtted a shortage OF 100 printed pages.
On redirect examination he stated that
he had counted all pages as printed
matter, as was the custom before that
time.
Edwin c. De Winnie, of the Union
Printing company, was called as an eX-
pert and testified that it was customary
to count all pages as printed matter
even if they were blank pages. On
cross-eXamination he said that. of
course, he would not charge for blank
pages If it were Sc specified in the con-
tract, but, if there were no specification
as to blank pages, they would by Gus
tom be charged for. The county attor-
ney moved TO exclude the testimony of
De Winnie. becuse he had not been i'll the
habit of printing court calendars. Mr..
Erwin made an earnest speech in Oppo-.
SitiOn to the motion. Judge Egan de-
clded that the testimony should stand
after he had called attention TO the fact
that the indictment charged that there
were not SO pages in the calendar, and
that the indictment did not allude to
composition or ruled pages.
Auditor Burns Called.
The defendant was the next witness
called. He stated that he has lived in
the city fourteen years, and is at pres
ent county auditor; before that he was
running a newspaper, and is printer
by trade. He made out his first bill as
county printer for the court calendar of
October. 1890, or rather it was made out
by Harry BOllinger, who worked in his
office. The instructions for making up
the calendar were received from the
late Basil Armstrong. who was chief
clerk in the office of clerk of courts. In
making out the bill, that presented by
the Dispatch for its work was followed
or copied. Mr.. Burns said he could not
figure out the bill, as he had no educa
tiOn other than he had picked up
around printing offices. When the bill
was made out he handed it personally
to Dries, the expert printer, and told
him he did not know how to figure the
WORK. Dries increased this bill about
$50, and told the witness that he was
entitled to count all pages as printed
matter, as had been done by the Dis
patch aid Brown, Treacy IL Co.
Mir. Burns said that there were not
two printers in the city who will now
figure ont bill for the calandar the
same way. Any intentional wrong was
disclaimed by Mr.. Burns. His vertical
ton of the bill simply meant that he
had furnished the materials. and he left
to Expert Dries the figuring of the
amount DUE He had had several dis
agreements with the board over his bill;
sometimes the bill was cut down. If
there we're any errors in the bills he eX-
pected the county expert to correct
them. The hour of adjournment came
before any further matters of evidence
were gone into, and Mr.. Johns stated
that he would recall the defendant at
the opening of the court Monday morn-
Ing.

Will Be the Order Of Ceremonies
Mt the NeWson Memorial.

The general arrangements for the
NewsOn memorial services are about
completed, and the Peoples church to-
morrow afternoon at 2 o'clock will be
crowded TO ITS utmost capacity. Nearly
ten organizations have signified their
intention of participating in the serv-
ices, and these bodies alone will num-
Der nearly a thousand. Outside of these
there will be the individual friends of
the dead consul, and they are legion,
who will pay last sad trib-
ute to the memory of him who
was the friend of every man
and whose only regret will be that their
tears of sympathy and coincidence can
not be shed DER the grassy mound in
Spain that covers dear friend,a loving
father and noble man. The attesta-
tiOnS of respect will be in the nature Of
brief addresses of eulOgy delivered by
representatives of the different organ
izations with whom in life Maj. NewSOn
was affiliated, and the selection OF
orators promises some rare though
simple eloquence. An official pro-
granme is being prepared, which will
be published Sunday morning, and all
societies participating are requested to
be at the Press club, opposite Windsor,
promptly at l 80 Sunday afternoon.
