Found Clinging to Eoom
Pier. Nearly Dead.
Mike Cassidy is the name of an
individual who took a bath in the river
yesterday afternoon. He passed last
night at the city hospital, and the
chances are that he will never battle
again. Not that he is dead; far from ii.
but because he will have terror for
water hereafter. About 4 O'Clock he
walked down Twentieth avenue north
to the river. On the banks OF the chill
Mississippi he Invested himself OF all
his clothing and then deliberately wadeG
out toward the middle. When he UNI
dressed he had made up his mind TO
commit suicide. He wanted to do it in
theatrical way so that the newspapers
could speak of the dark and purling
stream" and how the "cold, cruel waves
washed over his white, upturned face"
But when the ice-cold water began to
creep up around his legs. and to ''purl'
about his thighs, Mixes courage OoZed

hired man. He concluded he did not
wade back TO shore again. But the cur

where the naked man was clinging.
His limbs were cramped, and it was
with great difficulty that the mill hand
succeeded in getting the man into his
boat. When the boat got 10 shore the
police of the North precinct station were
notified, ana the patrol wagon took the
wOuld-be suicide to the station. He
was unconscious, and physician
worked over him for fully three-Quar-
erS OF an hour before consciousness was
restored.
When Mike had recovered sufficiently
he was taken to the city hospital. The
officials of that institution stated last
night that he would be up and away
by this morning. He had fully recov-
cred, and there was nothing the matter
with him. He told them that ne lived

and that he had been out OF work for a
long time and bethOught himself of sui

The County Commissioners.

The board of county commissioners
regular meeting was held yesterday
morning The register of deeds sub
mitted report showing receipts
amounting to Sl,544.90 and disburse-
ments of S1,136.36. A report of the
clerk of courts shows the receipts to he
S1.429.39 and expenses S1,249 "a. The
poor farm received S6O4.27 and expended
SPA. so. A complaint of the Merrill
Abstract company was referred to the
committee on finance.
The company complains that the clerk
of courts has been charging them %
cents for making judgment searches
and % cents for each judgment found.
This is contrary TO law, the company
claims, and wants the excess money
paid since Jan. !, 1893, returned. The
clerk says the county gets the worst of
it even at these figures, on account of
the great amount OF work. The board
will probably not allow the rebate.

The Hatch Anti-Option Bill.

The chamber of commerce has no
particular use for the Hatch anti-option
bill. 1t can't use it in Its business. At
the meeting of the chamber yesterday
pronounced stand was taken against
the bill and its provisions, and incident
ally jumped on the pale, weak neck of
Charles A. PillsburY for his reported
comments. But. as usually happens.
Mr.. Pillsbury did hot in all probability
indulge in the comments attributed to
him, and could prove it, TOO. if old Big
Prlce-for- Wheat was alive. This latter
incident will not result in much blood
shed. The chamber acted favorably on
resolution TO forward a letter to Uncle
Loren Fletcher, asking him to do every

WASHINGTON, Jan. 5.-Representa-
tive Burrows outlined the parliamentary
attitude of the Republican side in the
opposition to progress Oh the tariff bill.
ut is the first positive step in oppo-
sition to the Wilson bill" said he. mo
exact plan of opposition has been de-
termined so far as the Republicans are
concerned, as the lines of opposition
will have to be shaped to each forward
movement of the friends OF the bill as
it develops. For the present the failure
to vote is protest against the unjust
rule which the majority seek to pass by
which general debate is limited to five
days, beginning today. This day is al
ready consumed. and Saturday is not
likely to bring much action. So that
the rule, if passed, Will limit the gen
eral debate on this great measure, in
volving vast economic principles and
industrial interests, to three days of
next week. We protest at this injuS-
tice, and we will continue to protest at
each successive stage of the contest"
