GRAND SCHEME

The JOINT resolution introduced in the
house yesterday, instructing our United
States senators and congressman to ask
sufficient appropriation to make a,sur-
yey for canal from Lake Superior to
the head of navigation of the Mississippi
river, is one of the best measures that
has claimed the attention of the legisla-
ture. With a canal large enough for
the lake boats and barges, the coal
problem would not only be solved for
Minnesota, but the entire Mississippi
valley, from the source to the Gulf of
Mexico, would gain the advantages of
cheap water freights, as against those
of railway mOnopOlys.
The railway freight rate on coal from
the Pennsylvania anthracite mines to
st. Paul is S4.2S per ton. The rate by
water would be about 50 cents.
There is nothing which could contrib
ute more to the welfare of the country
than ship canals connecting the great
lakes with the Hudson and the Missis-
sippi rivers. While the canal at this
end would not raise the Mississippi so
as TO be navigable by lake boats, ii
would probably afford a sufficient flow
OF water into the river to enable large
river boats to easily reach the head of
navigation at all times during the open
seasons.
lie vast area which would be benefit
ed by the cheap waterway freights
would leave little foundation in the
country for further railway monopoly.
1t would not be the death blow to rail-
ways, but only to monopoly. We may
well expect 10 see the railways engaged

MAJOR NEWSON.

The news of the sudden death OF
Maj. NEwSON in Spain yesterday is
received with sorrow by all who knew
the genial, kind-hearted gentleman. II
is especially painful to the pioneers OF
ST. Paul and Minnesota. among whom
he has been conspicuous figure for
forty years. His departure is lamented
by Minnesota journalism, OF which he
was one of the most prominent found
erS; it will be mourned by the Repub-
lican party of the state, for ne was the
first ed tor to advocate its organization
in the territory, aud gave the infant
party its most powerful support. He
will be greatly missed at the social gath
eringS of 81. Paul, where his ready
tongue and gift of matchmaking per-
formed an important part. He was
known to almost every man, woman and
child in the city, and everybody will
long remember the kind face they were
always pleased to see.
Coming to Minnesota IN 1858 with a
good newspaper training, he engaged at
once in his profession. In 1854 he
founded the ST. Paul Times, and adVo-
Gated with all his vigor the cause of the
Free Soil party. When the Republican
party came into existence he at once
advocated the organization of the party
in the territory. Inheriting the charac-
teristicS of sturdy American ancestry,
he naturally devoted his strength to
molding the character of the young
commonwealth. and much that the state
is new is due in part to his exertions.
He has left in his "Pen Pictures of
st. PauP' a pleasant memento, which
will always be cherished by our citi-
ZPnS.

SUTTON IN JAIL.
Arrest OF the Alleged louisville

Louisville Banks Hold Over $780,
900 OF the Bogus Col
lateral.

LOUISVILLE, March 3l.-A. r. Sutton
andfns confidential bookkeeper. Will
lam M. Beecher, were arrested this aft
erno0n. each on ten charges Of forgery.
Thus the climax of the celebrated
whisky fOrgeries cases OF A. Il. Sutton
Il Co. was reached, and court of just
ice will say whether the two men are
guilty. The Farmers and Drovers' bank,
which was caught for $4,000, swore out
the warrants, and other banks have
signified their intention of assisting in
the prosecution. Sutton and Beecher
were taken to Jail. Judge Thompson
fixed the bond OF each at $4,000. which
they have been unable to secure. SUIT
ton, before his arrest. had arranged and
was preparing to turn over all his as
sets to Ii. L. Sherley 81 Co. to sell and
pay his debts. He still claimssthat he
mas sufficient whisky to meet all oDliga-
tons, but no one believes this.
So far as can be learned, the holdings
of the bogus collateral by the various
banks is as follows: Louisville Bank
ing company. $4,000; Fourth National,
$4,000; Farmers and Drovers', $4,000;
German Security, $4,000; German Ma
tlonal, $4,000; Peoples, $1,000; Wess-
ern, $4,000: Louisville Deposit, $4,000.
The amount held by the banking COM
pany is matter of speculation, the
bank officials persisting in their re-
fusal to give out any statement. From
outside sources it is learned that the
sum mentioned is approximately cor
rect. OF the aggregate sum it is stated
that about $4,000 is covered by good
marginal securities on whisky held by
Sutton in the Louisville public ware
house. 1t is understood that other war
rants will be sworn out tomorrow, and
Attorney Kohn. who represents some of
the banks, says the delay in the arrest
of Sutton was at his (Kohn's) instance,
as he preferred to await developments.

ANCKER,s RE-ELECrIoN.

The reelection of DR.. ANCKER as
city and county physician is well be-
slowed reward for efficient services
The genial physician is possessed of a
smile that makes sick man feel almost
we'll, and half wish that he might be
sick again so as to enjoy it. But the
smile. though broad. doesn't cover the
tenth part of his merit. Unlike many
of his jovial sort, he is possessed of
splendid executive abilities. and has
built the hospital service up from al
most nothing to one OF the best in Amer
lea. The new hospital, when it is COM
pleted, will be second to none, and
something the city may we'll be proud
of. He has organized staff upon a
unique and most effective plan. 1t is
made up from among the ablest and
most experienced physicians of the city,
and the duties are divided among them
according to their specialties; so that
the poor man who has been injured is
attended to by the most skillful sur
geon, or who is suffering with typhoid
fever is treated by doctor who is espe-
cially skilled in that class of diseases,
etc.
When DR.. AECKER dies it will be
with smile on his face and joke half
cracked. but st. Paul will have some
thing which will ever stand as a monu-
ment to his business ability.

Their Heads Into a Moose.
PANAMA, March 3l.-A conspiracy to
bring about revolution was discovered
in Costa RIGA on the 9th inst, and was
suppressed through the energetic and
cautious action of the government 1t
appears that the conspirators plotted to
make an attack upon the Quartet, or
quarters where the military stores in
charge of the quarter master general
were deposited, and with the arms and
ammunition found there to equip the
enemies of the government and lnau-
gurate general revolution. The leader
in the conspiracy was Gutierrez, who
recently returned from exile, to which
he had been condemned on account OF a
previous revolt against the government,
and has been impatient to overthrow
those who had extended clemency to
him on that occasion. The authorities,
being fully aware of the intentions of
the rebels, determined to allow the lat
ter to proceed with their plans. and cap
ture them IN the act of treason. The
government was completely successful.
The conSpiratorS made their attack on
the Quartet as they had planned. and
secured arms and ammunition. At this
moment they were taken by surprise by
the government troops. The latter cap
tured the cOnSpiratOrS, and also the
arms and ammunition of which the lat
ter had possessed themselves. In order
to prevent any further disturbance, the
country was placed under martial law.
The government intends to inflict such
severe punishment OH the offenders as
will be warning to Others.

Anent a New Capitol.

Window Reporter.
Some men want to do something In
which there is abStractly no wrong, but
they lack the moral courage to do it.
This is the case with some one in st.
Paul, who is the greatest coward we
have heard Of. He is opposed to the
new capitol and has sent out through
the state an anonymous circular letter
asking people to oppose the measure.
and especially urging the recipient of
the cowardly letter to take it to the pub
Usher of the local newspaper and induce
that journal to enter into the fight
against the building. Any one has the
same right to oppose the erection OF the
building as any other man has to be-
friend it, but the man is a cowardly
baby who will attempt fight in this
sneaking manner. If there is anything
in opposition to the new building that is
SO shameless that man does not dare.
to identity himself with it, the circular
) pretty strong evidence that we
should have the new building.

The Hekla Proceeding Slowly to
Her Destination.
NEW York. March 31.-Another trans
Atlantic steamship mas been disabled at
sea while on her way to this port. The
Hekla, of the Thingvalla line, has
been sighted while making slow
progress with machinery which has
been repaired temporarily after
breaking down. The French liner La
Normandie arrived early this morning
with the report. Capt. Rupe says that
his vessel exchanged signals with the
Hekla at $50 p. m. on March u, four
days ago. He said that she had made
temporary repairs to her machinery aud
was steaming at about eight miles
an hour. The disabled vessels
position at the time was almost
in mdocean and on the westward
path of the ocean steamers. The Hekla
left ChriStiana March 10, and was due
at this port March %. The exact num-
Der of passengers could not be ascer-
tanned, but the agents thought there
were about 500 in all, including about
sixty in the cabin. The Hekla is a
single screw steamer. and is the fastest
of the Thingyalla line. She can make
sixteen knots an hour in fair weather,
but she seldom attempts to exceed four

TALKED TOO MUCH.
What Started the Hunt for Clar-
ence Sherman.

ence Sherman.
MINIATURES, March 31.-The recent
arrest of Langley Sherman, alias Clar-
ence Sherman. the lumber camp man,
is regarded by the attorneys in the
Meade case as very important. j. w.
Quarles, who has been engaged in the
prosecution of the case, said today that
the announcement of Sherman'S arrest
was unexpected, as it had Deen
agreed to keep it secret for the
present. Sherman is we'll known, and
was employed in livery stable
at Waupaca at the time of the murder
of Banker Meade. When Tab Prior
was on trial Sherman was one of the
witnesses, but his testimony was more
remarkable for what it did not tell than
for what it did. The trial is said by the
attorneys who are now interested in the
case to have been farce, and was held to-
throw the officers off the right scent.
After the trial Sherman displayed a
large roll of money, which he said he
received for keeping his mouth shut.
LII the coming trial witnesses will be
produced to whom the statements were
made. When the grand jury, which
was charged with looking into the muir
der. was in session last spring, Sherman
disappeared. The officers have been
looking for him ever since, but were
unable to catch him.
