MINNEAPOLIS. MINI, Dec. 19--R. T.
pdell. attorney for Claus EiiXi. the Cling
murderer declared this morning thal
BliXt had never made confession. " hen
pressed for an explanation OF THIS asser-
ton, III view Of the repeated statements
alleged 10 have boon made by toe pr.s-
oncr TO Mayor Eusts, Ch.ci Of .-)lice
Smith, Sheriff Anderson and the J,.lors
Odell reiterated his assertion THAI BiiXt
had never made a confession and thar
he would make none. Mr. Odell added
by way Of explanation that when adm.s-
sions were wrung from BllXt at the now
famous inquisition. the man was thrown
into a condition OF terror by constant
threats Of physical violence. The Attor-
ney states that Blixt made some admis-
sions because he was told that he would
certainly be lynched If he did not con
fess. and that all sorts OF illegal and dis
reputable means were used to make him
confess.
This attitude OF the defence seems TO
indicate that when placed on trial the
prisoner will entirely ignore his state
ments made in jail.

INSURANCE nArns nppuonp.
Chicago Underwriters Struggling
over an Equalization

Chicago, Oct 11.--Insurance rates on
buildings In the downtown business
districts were modified considerably
nv the Chicago Underwriters assoola-
ton at the meeting last night. Under
the rate put into effect February 20 OF
this year the schedules were advanced
25 per cent over the old mercantile
rates. Then II was found this increase
was unequal, and placed a higher rate
on any given risk than was proper;
the assured was allowed a rebate. The
rule was only to apply until the new
schedules could be completed. The as
sociation has been working on these
new schedules for nine months. but
they are not completed satisfactorily as
yet.
Meanwhile. the rebates were tumb-
ling into the offices of the association
at an astonishing rate. and it became
evident that something must be done.
and that right speedily. Therefore,
the association decided to reduce the
advance on the old mercantile rate
from 20 to 10 per cent, but to make
this a lat rate until the schedule can
be put into effect. This Is fully re-
duction Of the rate on business build
iugs contracted with the ones that
have prevailed since February, in spite
OF the rebates. which will not average
Is per cent. Stocks and other con-
tents OF the buildings are not given
the benefit of the change.
The lumber trade secured another
brief respite The report of the execu-
tive committee, recommending several
changes in the rates applying TO lum-
Der. was ordered printed and dlstrl-
buted for consideration. Lumber risks
Will be thoroughly overhauled at the
meeting next Friday afternoon, and II
is highly probable that the report of
the committee will be adopted. In
this case heavy increases will be put
on as penalties for lumber which is
piled too high for lack Of watchmen
at the yards, and for exposures beyond
twenty-five and up to eighty feet from
the risk.

New York, Oct. II. - Scandinavian
miners and other laborers of that ma
tlouallty are grieving over the loss OF
the money they have been saving for
years-moncy that they had intrusted
TO the care OF o. A Stosterom, a Swed-
ish banker. who has been doing busl-
ness for years at q State street. The
concern has collapsed. with liabilities
of 100000, and no visible assets.
Stosterom. 1t appears, has been doing
a general banking business for about
ten years. He solicited the savings Of
the men from the time they landed in
this country, promising to pay them
per cent on all deposits. The miners
in Pennsylvania sent him portion
of their salaries every month, and he
was or ought to have been. growing
rich very fast, The depositors have
only receipts to show for their deposits.
1t is said that he knew that his con-
Germ was going to collapse last June,
and yet he continued to receive de-
poslts. He sailed away that month
for Sweden, where he is now supposed
to be, leaving the office In charge of a
woman supposed 10 be his wife She
was notified by the Swedish consul
during the latter part Of September
that she must not receive any more
deposits. The office has now been
closed up by his order.
