have done so in any event.
The fear of the trainers and advocates OF the

that a majority of the House may vote 10 re-
commit il to the Committee on Ways and Means.
II is believed that many Democrats would vote
for such motion who would not vote TO XIII
the bill outright. The Republican leaders
have been averse TO the former policy. but some
of them are now rather inclined to support ii.
Chairman Wilson and his Democratic coll
leagues do not show a disposition 10 make 1t cas-
Ter for members of their party to vote for the bill
Sufficient proof of this is found in the sweeping
amendments proposed TO the metal schedule to-
day and in the action of the Committee Of the

Conference Yesterday With Off

Action to Be Commenced in

lidity of the Laws-Will Be
Carried to the Upper Courts.
Labor Commissioner P overs took
measures yesterday that will bring to
focns the questions surrounding the law

tature relative to the rights Of individu-
ais to JOIN labor or other organizations.
According to the recent enactment.
person desiring to enter the employ OF
corporation or individual is not called
upon to surrender his rights or allegi-
ance to any society, secret or otherwise,
to which he may belong.
Yesterday Labor Comm issioner Pow
ers called upon General Manager
Underwood, Of the 500 road, and
after somewhat animated discussion.
III the course OF which Mr.. Underwood
stated that he regarded the law as I'M
just and unconstitutional, the former
decided that he would bring suit against
the company. The grounds upon which
action will be brought are that boiler
makers in the employ of the road were
Induced to sign away their rights, that
three conductors were threatened with
discharge unless they left the associa-
ton, and that certain machinists would
lose their positions unless they quit the
union. In tine course of the conference
1t is understood that Mr.. Underwood
stated that he did not consider that the
road had violated any laws, and that he
would carry the case to the supreme
court. Warrants will be sworn out in
the municipal court, as the offense is
reg arded only as misdemeanOr.

This is true as the other matters you

Yes, SIR"
Sheridan Swore that Dugan on the
night referred to had no moustache,
though there might have been few
days growth on his upper lip. He wore
Sideburns, which were q little longer
than the ones he affects at the present
time. Dugan smiled broadly as he heard
this description of himself.
Sheridan identified the famous straw
hat, which he swore Dugan wore posi-
lively. There could be no mistake, he
said. 1t was the hat, the county attor
ney having by this time placed it in ev-
ldence. 1t was a natty hat of the kind
worn last summer. There was nothing
peculiar about it, the ribbon being black
and the straw woven Iii and out, with a
little piece Clipped out of the edge.
Sheridan identified the hat from the
sweat cloths under the band and the
asked HIM how he recognized the hat so
well, he replied doggedly:
Because it's the hat.''
'Well, but isn't this lat the same in
general appearance to million other
hats of the same style and make?"
Yes. l guess So"
"HOw. then, do you identify the hat
as the one worn by Dugan or one of the
boys on that night in your saloon3''
Because it's the hat" was the onl Y
reply that the alto rney could get from
the salOonkeeper.
Sheridan finally said, however, that
he had examined the hat pretty thor
oughly nearly year ago, when Fat
Cullen, another of the "Sheridan"
gang, tried it on. He found it TOO small.
and took out the cloths under the sweat
band.

BEGINNING EARLY.
The Local Democrats Are Prepar.
ing for the Fight

The Local Democrats Are Prepar.
ing for the Fight.
There was a meeting of number of
the prominent Democrats of the city in
all Office OF the Boston block yesterday
afternoon. at which matters pertaining
to the coming local campaign were dis
cussed at length. While it is unlikely
this meeting will have any especial
bearing on the campaign and its re-
suits, it will show what the sentiment
among great many of the Democrats
of the city is concerning who will be
candidate for mayor on their ticket.
The names of Aid Kiichii, DR.. Ames
and P. b. Winston were brought up,
and this is what Matt Gallagher, the
well known lawyer, who was present at
the meeting, had to say on the subject:
II for one ain in favor of Mr.. Win
ston. While do not think he will ac-
cept the nomination if it be rendered
him, certain conditions may arise when
ne will feel it is duty to do so. 1t is
necessary for a man to have some eX-
perience, and inaSmuch as he had two
years experience as mayor, he is very
capable candidate"
MIR. Gallagher was asked what he
thought of Mr.. Kiichli's aspirations,
and he replied with considerable feel
ing:
''The present city council has the
worst name of any in the history of the
city. Mr.. KiichlPs record shows he has
been the prime mover in schemes
whereby the city has lost hundreds of
thousands of dollars. | will cite
two instances. First. the abolish
ment of the interurban transfers:
The first ordinance abOlishing these
transfers was introduced by Kiichli.
Next he is largely 10 blame for the con-
dition Of things existing in the ire de-
partment. The fire department is con-
trolled and directed from the secret
receSses of the A. 2. A. Before Chief
Runge was elected to his position the
department stood in the first grade.
Now it has dropped to fourth grade.
Kiichli has always been Runge's right
hand man, and in the recent council
election was his principal champion.
u nder the present condition of the fire
department the city 10 called upon to
pay several hundred thousand dollars
more than before.
1T costs more to run it than any de-
partment in the United States In cities
of size equal to Minneapolis. For these
and other reasons l am of the opinion
that Kiichli can not be considered for
the office of mayor or any other office so
far as that is concerned. 1t is a long
time before the fight will he on, how
ever, and in the meantime some other
candidate may show up"

The park board met yesterday after
noon, the most important matter for
consideration being the election of q
successor to c. NJ. Lori ng as commits
sioner. Four ballots were taken, re-
suting in the election of w. &. Nye,t
who was declared elected by vote of
10 to 2. The meeting was presided over
by President Ridgeman, who made an
address, in the course Of which he adj
vocated general cutting down of ex-l
penses.
He said: II am not sure but we are
making great mistake In the improve
ment OF such large areas as Mlnnehaha
state park, l4yndale park and Inter
locken. Columbia park. Minnehaha
parkway and the East river bank, with
out first having plans prepared in de-
tail. This matter / would like to have
the committee OH Improvements care
fully consider"
Mr.. Ridgeway expresses the opinion
that the people appreciate the provision
made for winter sports, and that here
after such provision should always be
made. On the subject of maintenance
he says:
"The care OF the parks and park ways
for 1898 cost something over $50, 600
This should be reduced, if possible. If
the board, through its committee on po-
lice, will refrain from appointing over
ten park policemen for regular duty,
ard call upon the mayor to help out on
Sundays and special days, quite an
amount can be saved" He also recon-
mended greater care in the purchasing
of supplies and the policy of asking for
bids for flowers for the parks.
A petition was presented by G. A.
McNeir d Co. asking for the right to
run cable across Minnehaha creek at
the park. the same being referred to The
committee on shore rights and priv
ileges.
After the transaction of routine bust
ness the following standing committees
