LINDOLF's MURDERERS.
Their Capture Due to a Newspaper
Man.

Man.
AS might have been expected, the
arrest Of the two young men. Milhausen
and Ermersch, for the murder Of Will
IAN Lindolf. was not due to the
vigilance or keenness of the members
of the police department. The
credit for the capture of the youthful
nurderers Is due to Louis De Lestry,
who gave the detectives the information
which led to the arrests. This fact is
verified by Chief Garvin, who has writ
ten letter to De Lestry thanking the
young man for his services.
Ermersch, who is at the city hospital,
is reported as improving, and the
chances for his recovery are considered
good. MilLausen, who made the con-
fession, was kept at police headquarters
yesterday, and it is understood will not
be arralgned in the police court
for a few days. Mrs. Kohl
man. who was in the saloon at
the time the murder was COM
mitted visited Milhausen at the central
station yesterday, and as soon as the
prisoner caught sight of her he re-
marked: THAT'S the woman who was
in the saloon at the time" The grand
jury will take up tine case today. and
the detectives yesterday were busy in
suinmonihg the witnesses and telling
how they had been individually sighted
in the newspaper accounts of the ar
rests.

ourRAGEoUsLY PARTISAN.

The st. Paul council, Overwheim.
ingly Republican, threw law. equity
and justice TO the winds last night, and
acted in manner which would have
put to blush the worst of the Louisiana
returning boards. Contrary to the plain
provisions of the charter, contrary to
the expressed will of the people, and
contrary to the American spirit of fair
play, it declared elected two Repub-
lcans who were defeated at the
polls. And for what? Simply to give
the Republicans majority of one in
the next assembly, and throw upon the
two Democrats thus illegally declared
not elected the cost and worry Of carry
ing their cases to the highest court o.
the state. This will take time, possibly
several months, during which period
the Republicans hope to control munie-
ipal legislation through their majority
i'll one branch of the council. All this
is done with the approval of the Repub-
Press. and of the Republican attorney
general, although the latter leaves a
loophole for himself in the following
warning to the council in his opinion OF
May 10:
Permit me to suggest that an occasion
rarely arises where an administrative body
is justified in questioning the constitution
ality of law prescribed for their guidance.
As general rule. and save only in cases
where statute is clearly and palpably uncon-
stitutional. 1t should be observed until pro-
nounced invalid by the courts.
Note the language carefully, Save
only in cases where statute is clearly
and paipably unconstitutional, IT
SHOULD BE OBSERVED UNTIL. PRO-
NouNCED INVALID BY THE COURTS"
This was plain hint to the Republican
council that common decency de-
handed that the men elected according
to the language of the law should be
seated, and that the two aggrieved Re-
pubiicans could secure redress. if any
were due them, in the courts. But this
would not do The Republican leaders
were not looking for justice; they were
seeking majority in the assembly, and
with an iron hand they have seized it.
The GLOBE wishes them joy with their
ill-gotten majority, and assures them
that they will have a merry time keep
ing it,

A CALL TO The CATHOLICS

DRESS IN NEW YORK.
HIS WARNING TO coRR,G.N.
A Word From the Archbishop
Against This Government
Would Prove That He Was
False to the Republic and
False to the Catholic Church,
Says the Tammany Orator.

New YORK, May l5 = Bourke Cock
ran created sensation last night at the
opening OF the Catholic educational ex-
hibit at the Grand Central palace here.
After Archbishop Corrigan had deliv-
cred an address Cochran began his
speech. He was evidently excited.
ITO DECLARE said Mr.. Cochran, "that
the Catholic church is hostile to the re-
public is to declare that the mother is
hostile to her offspring. Those who tell
us that the Catholic church and its edu-
cational system is hostile to this govern
ment must speak falsehood. We cam
not have it otherwise. What the church

is Just the same as she did in ages gone
by. believe the time has come when
Catholics should assert themselves and
say that they above all others are the

ran was speaking OF the loyalty of the
Catholics to the republic. Turning
toward the archbishop. and advancing
with forefinger Outstretched, he de-

big hall, 'but if the day should ever
come"-he was now so close to the
archbishop that his outstretched fore
hnger almost touched his nose, when
from a Catholic pulpit you utter one
word hostile to the integrity of this

languages falls from your lips, it will be

His Bank Got Much Less.
The assembly committee on ways and
means held short session yesterday
afternoon. and the result was that the
bid of the st. Paul National bank as a
depository for city funds was with.
drawn.
The attendance at the session was
largely made up from banking circles,
those present being +. A. Seymour. Of
the Merchants National: ID. A. Mon
fort. OF the Second National; Edward
Vanish, of the West Side bank; Will
lam Dawson, of the Bank Of Minnesota;
Maurice Auerbach, of the Union bank;
j. W. Lusk. of the National German
American; William Bickcl. of the Ger
mania, and +. w. and A. C. Anderson,
of the st. Paul National.
The committee from the assembly
was represented by Messrs. Lightner.
Doran and Schuette. and the bid made
by the st. Paul National bank, offering
to pay 21s per cent interest On city de-
posts, was read.
Mr.. Lusk, who said he had been dep
utized to set the ball rolling, explained
that there had been misunderstan d.
ing among the bankers. He was of the
opinion that Mr.. Anderson's plan of
having the city deposits equally divided
might after all be the better
plan. A. C. Anderson. of the St.
Paul National. said that after
the city had opened the bid
made by the bank he understood all the
contracts with the other banks were
knocked out. Mr.. Lightner said that
the committee did not understand it In
that way.as the proposals gave the coun-
Gil the right to reject any and all bids.
+. W. Anderson said that he considered
the bank he represented had been un-
fairly treated, as small banks with only
$4,000 capital stock frequently had
more city funds on deposit than the ST.
Paul National with capital stock of
s60o.0O0. His bank paid 5000 taxes.
twelve times as much as bank with
$4,000 capital stock. and in his opinion
the amount of deposits shonld be graded
accordingly.
The plan of having the council desig-
Hdto tiic dtuOuutS 10 De uepOSlLeu Ill the
various banks was not considered good
one by Mr.. Lightner. He thought it
would be taking the matter out of the
hands of one politician and placing it in
the hands of twenty. Mr.. Auerbach
made a suggestion. at which A. c..
Anderson remarked that at the same
day the bids were opened the Union
bank. which Mr.. Auerbach represented,
mad Oh deposit S95. 000 of city funds, while
the capital stock of the bank was only
$4,000. 10 show the unfairness of the
system of allowing the treasurer to use
his discretion in the matter of deposits,
MIR. Anderson called attention to the
amount on deposit III the Germania
bank, which had been reduced to less
than $1,000, while the capital stock was
100000 During the discussion the
elder Anderson had been in consulta.
ton with Mr.. Lusk, and q moment later
the announcement was made that the
bid OF the st. Paul National bank was
withdrawn.
This seemed to suit the committee,
and Mr.. Lightner announced that the
question Of new bids being advertised
for would be laid over until the meeting
