BRICKS AND PLASTER FALL.
Pedestrians Shun the Merchant
Street Side.
COURTS AND CELLS FLOODED.
Prisoners Removed From the WASH
ington-Street Wing-A Protest
to the Supervisors.

The Board of Health condemned the old
City Hall as unsafe aud unsanitary long
ago. Three successive grand juries have
concurred in the opinion and reiterated
their condemnation, and on Saturday last
the Fire Wardens decided that the teeter-
ing walls and rotten floors would have to
be supported by props.
Judge Campbell declared that he will hav
no more jury trials IN his court. as the floor
is too weak to support a crowd, and Judge
Low has nervous attack every time he
enters his portion IF the ruiz. The Fire
Commissioners, whose headquarters are in
the Merchant-street wing, have decided to
remove to the new City Hall just as
soon as their rooms in that structure
are in readiness. They think that
they will be gone by the middle OF
January and the Old building will be left
TO the police. the prisoners ana the man
who is employed By the city at salary of
SIS month to watch the unsightly pile.
He is pro badly the only person who is Op-
posed to the demolition OF the hall and the
removal of its occupants.
Since the commencement of the rainy
season the disintegraJion of the building
has been marked, and the dangers that
menace its occupants have multiplied.
Great fakes of plaster fall daily, almost
hourly, from the wall on the Merchant
street side, and an occasional brick, re-
leased by the crnmhling cement, warns
the pedestrian to keep off The walk. The
pavement along this side Of me building
is Stunned by the police andfall others
who have a profound appreciation of the
danger that turks In the moldering wall.
The bricks of which the building is CON.
structed are soft and porous and soon DIS
inIegraIe, when not protec ed from the ele-
ments by a coat of cement.
During the past week the courtrooms
have been 6eluged and the water in the
cells on the Washington-street side of the
prison was so deep yesterday morning that
the pris oners had to be transferred to other
quarters.
The general demand for the destruction
of the building is emphasized by properly
owners and residents in its vicinity, who
are preparing petition to the Supervisors
calling for its Immediate demolition and
the erection of a public building on the
site tina will not be disgrace to the city.
The Democratic SuperVis ors-elect are
bound by their party platform TO work for
a new structure to contain the police nd
criminal courts, prison and receiving
hospital. They will be assis ed, if not led.
by TWO Republican Supervisors-elect, who
are in touch with the people who live in
the district, and are doing all in their
power TO intensity the movement in favor
of new hall.

AT San Francisco Turner Hall, 1913 Turk

the benefit concert rendered Max Cohnheim,
the veteran German journalist. last night.
The programme was long one, but there
wasn't dull number throughout, and the
overflo wing audience enjoyed every bit Of

The affair was as great financial as it
was a social success, and much credit is
due the management for the manner in
which the entertainment was handled.
The programme was almost entirely in

Pending the contest for treasurer that
followed F. B. Doran, the nominee for
mayor, was led to the platform by the
COMMITTEES that waited on him and was
greeted with cheers.
He came OH the platform in an awk-
ward and stumbling manner and was
apparently impressed with feeling of
disgrace rather than joy, owing to the
class to whom he was indebted for his
nomination. He stood with hat In hand
while he delivered the following ora
torical effort:

ID. f. Reese moved the selection of a
committee, consisting of one from each
ward, on resolutions, the choice to be
made as in the case of that on creden-
tlals.
Chairman Lightner suggested that
the convention was not yet organized,
but if it was believed that the delega-
lions would not be changed the commit
tee Oh resolutions might be selected.
Tom Howard and his friends were
present, and it was generally under
stood that the proposed contest from
the Ninth ward had been abandoned,
so the committee ON resolutions was
named as follows:

up in the Sixth ward.

Gen. Flower arose to make motion
to take recess, but gave way to Samuel

Gen. Flower renewed his motion to
take recess until l o'clock.
Mr.. Loweustein began a speech in
favor OF proceeding with the business.
Gen. Flower raised the point of order
that motion to adjourn is not debata-
bic. Mr.. Lowenstein retorted that a
motion to take recess is debatable, and
being sustained by the chair. sat down
amid applause after declaring that the
convention was ready at that minute to
proceed.
ID. L. Reese urged recess. and spoke
of the absence of a number of delegates

jublant Republican an hour or so after
tie convention adjourned. both these
men thought Republicans would not
dare to refuse them denominations.

ward at his back, and Wolterstorff
thought that although Copeland was

j. II. Wolterstorff was asked last

which Wolterstortf and the reporter
looked at each other. he quietly re-
marked: "The Republican party of st.

try who have been winning such splen-
did victories because the people have
risen in revolt against the national and
local misrule of the Democratic party,
which has brought our finances to the
verge of ruin, and has disgraced the ma

We reaffirm the principles of the plat

upon which the people of st. Paul gave
didates, and point with pride to the fact
that the practical application OF those
principles has resulted in reduction of

time they had had the mayor of the city
in its history, with the exception of Dr..
Stewart. He wanted the gathering to
understand the question TO be whether
the party in power should be retained.
Up 10 this time Mr.. tightner had not
drawn out any applause and so he
played the card of Oar Reese, the Cicero
of the party, and declared that "1his is
a Republican year." Some applauded
and Others laughed. He then proceeded
to say that it is more than q question of
politics that confrontS the people, and
pronounced the city government of the
past ten or twelve years as bad and eX-
travagant. He admitted frankly that
all parties make their mistakes and
added that while the present admins

effort of D. F. Reese to get up an en-
thusiastic cheer for the ticket upon the
adjournment was a fiat failure. There
were numerous instances of men who
declared that, although they had been
lifelong Republicans, they could not
and would not support the ticket. After
the convention the delegates gathered
i'll groups in hotels. saloons and on the
Street and discussed the ticket among
themselves. Many OF the leaders of the
convention declined TO discuss the men
nominated for publication, but indi-
cated that they could see no reason for
enthusiasm.

GLOBE reporter and congratulated on
his being made the lion of the day, and
upon the applause that greeted the men,

Mr. Reardon did not seem to enthuse
not sure that he would stay on the ticket
as candidate for the assembly. Asked
for reason, he stated frankly that the
claim had been made that the A. p. A.
had cut too much of figure in the con-
Vention, and he believed there was some
ground for the claim He made the
further statement that Pat Butler would
not run for alderman in the Fourth
ward, and that at least two other candi
dates Oh the ticket would draw off.
Pat Butler declined the nomination
for alderman in the convention, but de-
clined to give reason at present. when
interviewed by a reporter. During the
evening Republicans stated that there
is general feeling in the party that the
ticket is weak one.
A group of four prominent figures in
the convention hall were sitting in the
Clarendon III earnest conversation after

made several motions in the convention
to make the nominations unanimous.
