Goes Over His Reassessment of
Itasca County.
At the last session of the state iegis-
lature law was passed authorizing the
governor to appoint an agent to reassess
the pine land in Itasca county. Senator
William S. Dedon received the appoint
ment, and, after carefully going over
the county, he has submitted his report
to the governor. He begins by stating
at some length the difficulties under
which he performed the work, and
states that he, with thirty-seven assist
ants, examined fifty-three townships,
six OF which he considers were assessed
all they should be. In the forty-seven
townships reassessed the valuation was
eraised S2,225. 165. The total amount paid
for labor of men employed is $3.50;
personal expenses, including stationery,
books, plats and railroad fare, 1854.
making total of Sc, 4S6, as against all
estimate of $4,000 to $1,000.
The value of personal property is not
changed, and the assessment lists nave

GREATLY DISAPPOINTED.
Donahower Anxious to Be Re
Iieyed of Office

Donahower Anxious to Be Re-
lieved of Office
Marshal Donahower was disappointed
last evening when the day passed with
out hearing Of an appointment of his
successor. He said to a GLOBE reporter
that he was promised when in Wash
ington that the appointment would be
pushed, and that the new man should
be named by the opening of congress
yesterday. Col. Donahower was anx-
ious to get out of the Office before the
opening of court next Tuesday, and if
not relieved before that time he would
not find it convenient for himself,
neither would it be satisfactory to his
successor, to make the change in the
midst of term of court. He said tina
if he begins the term of court he would
prefer serving out his term, and so told
Attorney General Olney when in Wash
ington. If the new marshal is to TAX e
hold at the opening of the court he
should be named at once. so as to have
time to prepare and file his bond and be
ready for business Tuesday morning.
1t is expected that the successor to
Eugene G. Hay as United States dis
trict attorney will be named in a few
days. The term of the present incum-
bent expires next week in the midst of
term of court. and if an appointment
is made at any time soon the new dis
trlct attorney will have to drop into the
harness and begin the trial of causes in
court.
Mr.. Hay is ready to go out of Office.
and will open all Office in Minneapolis
for the general practice of law. He has
made host of friends in the state, and
step into active practice at once.

RHODES GETS JUDGMENT
AGAINST iCNATUS .DOVNELLY AND
OTHER LEGISLATORS.
DAMAGES FoR THE SEIZURE.

John j. Rhodes. Secretary of the
late Coal Combine. Whose
Books and Papers Were Forc;-
bly, seized by the Legislative
Committee, Gets SIS, $500 Dam
ages.
The notorious ''coal combine" fiasco
that created so much eXcitem mt In the
last legislature is getting down TO bed
rock. A judgment was entered up in
the Off &C of the clerk of the district
court yesterday in favor of John j.
Rhodes against members of the legis-
lative committee that investigated the
coal combine. The judgment is for
S3.5)0, and is against Ignatius Donnelly,
r'hilip b. Winston, Richard A. Walsh,
James A. BOggs, Hiler IL. Horton, Will
IAN lockwood and Frank l.. Morse.
THESE were members of the joint COM
mittee from the senate and house that
made seizure of the books and papers
i'll the office of John j. Rhodes when in
veStigaung the charge that a combine
had been formed to keep up the price
of coal. Rhodes was alleged to be secre-
tary of the combine. The gentlemen
named moved to quash the service
of summons on them in the suit Of Mr..
Rhodes, which alleged damages in the
sum of $4,000 tor the seizure of books
and papers. Upon hearing the motion
Judge Otis decided that the members of
the legislature were exempt from serv-
ice while the legislature was liz session.
The supreme court reversed the case.
1t was then sent to John l.. Townley as
master in chancery, to ascertain by
evidence what damage had been done
by the seizure of the books and papers
and to report judgment in the matter.
Mr.. Townley reported the sum of $500,
and Judgment was entered by the clerk
yesterday. AS the defendants named
hal failed to answer in the main case,
the Judgment is one by default.
No judgment is entered in this in
stance against H. B. Bjorge, who was
also member of the joint committee.
He answered in the case when 1t was
pending before the lower court, and
Judge Otis did not include hln in the
order eXcusing the others from service
of process. The case against Mr.. Bjorge
was transferred to Otter Tail county for
trial last spring. or shortly after the
action was begun last March.
