THE WAYZATA VILLAGERS
Insist That the Great Northern
Tracks Must GET Out.

tracks Must Get Out.
Penney. Welch & Hayne have served
papers on the officials of the Great
Northern road III a suit which has been
commenced by the village of WayZata
to compel the road TO remove its tracks
from along the lake shore on Lake
street. The grounds on which the action
is brought are two: First. that the
road never acquired right of way over
the street by condemnation OF in any
manner whatsoever; and second, that
there is no necessity for the company's
operating its tracks over the street.
This litigation IS the result of the
action of the company'S removing its
depot mile and half from the village
III fit OF pique over their loss of suit
similar to the present one, when it was
decided adversely to them in the su-
preme court of the state two years
ago. That action was to compel the
company to take up its switches and
side tracks on the same street.
The railroad at that time not ouly
removed the side tracks aDd switches,
but the depot as well. The village
council voted to take this action about
two weeks ago, and the papers were
served in accordance with that action
yesterday.
The question arises in the present ac-
ton as to whether the road has the
right to occupy grounds on which there
no longer exists any necessity for its SO
doing. 1t is quite nice point OF law.

Right of Asylum Restricted b
the NAVY Department,

Right of Asylum Restricted by
the Navy Department..
WAsHINGTo n. Aug. 16.-ln the quiet
est manner that off cial methods will
permit, the navy department has amend
ed the naval regulations in such fashion
as to entirely reverse the policy of right
of asylum as laid down by Secretary
Tracy in the case of Gen. Barrundia,
when Commander Reiter, of the United
States steamer Ranger, received his
singing reprimand. The new regula-
tion appears to completely justify that
unfortunate officer in his refusal to pro-
tect Barrundia, for if its construction of
the proper duty of naval commander
is correct and in conformity with luter-
national law, then he could not have
offered to take the general from the
merchant vessel.
The department has been induced,
beyond question, to make this new reg
ulation restricting the granting of asy-
lum by the great trouble it has been put
to by the harboring Of the Salvadorean
refugees on the Bennington.
The new regulation reads:
The right of asylum for political or
other refugees has no foundation i'll in-
ternational law. In countries, however.
where frequent Instructions occur. and
constant instability of government eX-
lists, local usages sanction the granting
of asylum, but even in the waters of
such countries. officers should refuse all
applications for asylum, except when
required by those interests of humanity
In extreme or exceptional cases, such as
the pursuit OF the refugee by mob.
Officers must not directly or Indirectly
nVite refugees to accept asylum.

THE LUMBER DISTRICTS.
Better Fire Protection Was Dis
cussed Yesterday.


cussed Yesterday.
A meeting of the council committee on
ways and means with the fire depart
ment committee was held yesterday
afternoon to consider the proposition of
erecting new engine house OH Twenty
sixth avenue north and Second street
for the protection of the lumber district,
and it was decided to recommend to the
council that one be built at once at a
cost of $4,000 in that Immediate To-
calty.
The insurance men of the city Joined
with the lumber men in presenting petl-
tions asking that the engine house be
built there, for, although it would be
within half mile of another house, it
was such an immense lumber district
that it needed the very best of
protection. Aid Haynes incident
ally asked H. G. Akeley and L. B.
Walker what the effect would be upon
the lumbermen If the council should pass
an ordinance regulating the location OF
yards and heights of piles, and received
the information that the majority of the
mills would quit business, as nothing
could be done, hampered by such regu-
tations. Mr.. Walker thought 1t better
to have high piles than to have low
ones spread over an immense territory.
