THE TRANSFER CASE.
1t Brings Out a Lot of Technical
law Points.


The case of the city against the street
railway company to test the validity of
the Harvey transfer ordinance Is still on
at the district court before Judge
Smith. Yesterday was taken up with
the examination of witnesses for the
city, and during the afternoon the CON-
pany'S witnesses were put on the stand.
The testimony was all technical. and
referred to the condition of the street
under the present transfer system, the
city claiming that it created a nuisance,
inasmuch as crowds at all times assem-
bled at the transfer points. Aids.
Harvey, Kiichli and others testified that
i'll their opinion the present system of
transferring was an obnoxious one.
The intersections of the streets where
the transfers are given were continually
crowded. to the detriment of the travel
on the th0rOughfares, and the paSsen-
gers were disconnected seriously when
they were obliged to ride away around
to the station at the corner of HeDnepin
avenue and First street.
The street railway company main
tains that the present system is the only
one practicable, and that as the majority
of cars pass the Hennepin avenue sta
ton it is a saving of time to passengers
to 20 there and get their transfers. The
defense asked that all the testimony
given by the prosecution be stricken out
because there had been no evidence
that the street railway company had or
was maintaining nuisance. Judge
Smith. however, denied the motion,
stating that he was DESTROYS of hearing
all the evidence in the case owing to the
Importance of the matter.

The school board held lengthy ses-

ness. The report of Supt. Jordan
showed that the attendance at the
public school on the close Of the first
semester on Jan. 10 was 25, 791. showing
an increase over the correspon ding
semester last year of 2.522. There is a
decided decrease in the night school at
tendance. and it has been found neces-
sary to close number of rooms. The
Kenwood Improvement association re-
newed its offer to the board of site at
Kenwood Park, and it was referred to
the building committee. The commit
