Up to last night $50 applications for

other city officials being indicted be-
cause the licenses due Jan. l of that
year were not all collected. The pres

the figures given above. seem to have
either escaped the attention of the re-

policy under reform administration
with an election approaching.

thereafter, when approving bills for
supplies for your department., will you
please certify on the bill that the sup
plies have been received. The figures
under the head of estimated cost in the

The comptroller did not care to talk
about his reasons for sending out the
letter beyond saying that it was in the
best interests of the city and to prevent
mistakes. 1t is understood, however,
that statement showing that fifty
eight tons Of coal had been delivered at
one of the fire stations in two months
last fall first brought the matter to his
attention. This heavy delivery of fuel,
it is understood, will be Investigated by
the special committee of which Com

Sensation in Il Case in Judge
Kerr'S COurt

sensation in Il Case in Judge
kerr's Court.
A rather sensational episode took
placed in Judge Kerr's court yesterday.
which caused a ripple of excitement for
the time being. When the case of
Peter j. Metzdorf against The Western
Supply Company was called for trial,
J. d. Barnard, attorney for the defend
ant, stepped forward and stated that he
felt it his duty to call the attention of the
court to state of facts which warranted
its interpOSitiOn with very stern meas
ures. The attorney then went on to say
that it had come to his knowledge from
no less person than one of the jurors
himself that the plaintiff in the action
(Mr. Metzdorf) had approached him
soliciting his assistance in the action in
which he was a party. Mr.. Barnard
said he would go further and state that
Mr.. Metzdorf had tempered. he had been
informed, with other members OF tire
jury panel to the end that they would
help him when his case was tried.
Stiles w. Burr, the attorney for the
plaintiff, VINO is young man of ster-
ling integrity, WAS visibly affected
by the recital of Mr.. Barnard's serious
charge, and when concluded he dis
claimed ali knowledge of such goings-
on. He could not believe his client was
guilty Of such conduct, and that lii case
he was he would wash his hands Of the
case
Judge Kerr said that the matter had
passed beyond the attorneys now and it
was for the court to act. He then or
dered Mr.. Barnard 10 put his charges in
the form of atfidavits, and submit them
to the court.
In the meantime the case of Metzdorf
against The Western Supply Company
is passed and will probably not be called
tor trial until new venire of jurors is
called next Monday. The names of the
jurors said to have been approached
were not diyulged by Mr.. Barnard.

Me ssrS. Wilson, Castle, Tallmage,

from the citizens relief association yes
terday afternoon. Treasurer Castle re-
ported that he had received the second
ihstallment of $1,000 from the subscrip-
ton lists. and was ready to turn the
same over to the city treasurer A mo-
ton 10 this effect was passed, and also
one Ia allow the treasurer to turn over
money to be collected Ill the future
Wneu the amount reached $500 or more
Ii WIS suggested that meeting of the
general committee be called, in order
To discuss the various propositions made
looking To furnishing work for the I'M
employed. 1t has been stated that at
least 500 men could be employed in
grading the grounds which have been
selected for the new capitol site,
and the attention of the ca
pltol commission will be called
TO this suggestion. G. M. Power, OF the
st. Paul Foundry company, who, Mr..
CaStle said, was exceedingly fertile in
his suggestions for work to be done by
the unemployed, had stated that if the
water board would order the purchase
of a large number Of fire hydrants it
world furnish work in the foundry for
number of men now out of employ
ment. Mr.. Powers plan was that even
If the hydrants were not needed for a
couple of years the work could be done
at the present much cheaper than at any
other time. This matter will also be
considered by the general committee at
their meeting. The $1,000 which the
treasurer turned over to the city treas
urer will come in very handy, as there
is at present in the fund for the unem-
ployed only SS27. ana the pay roll for
the 250 men at work on the streets this
week will amount to $500.
