Amount of Work That Has Been
Done to Date.

The chamber Of commerce committee
on strets, roads and parks reported to
that body at it's meeting yesterday
morning the amount of paving laid

Four and sixty-two hundredths miles
Of streets have been paved with as
phalt; .S6 miles of street have been
paved with cedar blocks; .26 miles of
street have been paved with stone;
miles Of cement sidewalk have been
laid; is miles of wooden sidewalk have
been laid.
All the east and west streets in the
business district, Third, Fourth, Fifth,
Sixth and Seventh, are now newly
paved, except Fifth street, east of Wa
basha street, which will be done next
spring. And Of the north and south
streets, Sibley, from the levee to Sew
enth; Wabasha from Third to College
avenue, and st. Peter, from Third to
Martin, are newly paved, and Martin,
from st. Peter to Rice, thus connect
ing the body of the city with Rice and
University, which are paved. Across
the river, South Robert street has just
been paved, and the street pavement
thoroughly repaired. All the leading
business streets Of the city are now in
excellent condition, except jackson
and Robert, which are in fair condi-
tion at present, but will In a few years
need repairing.
On several of the residence streets
associations have been formed for the
Improvement and Identification Of the
these associations Fairmount ana I.au-
rel avenues have had the roadways
streets, and through the influence of
narrowed, the boulevards widened and
scdded, trees planted and small parks
improved, making them among the
most beautiful avenues Of the city and
at small expense to the property own
ers.
When the streets come to be paved
the diminished cost of paving will
compensate for all the present out
lay, and the Identification Of the av-
enues will have been accomplished
without cost. Your committee cannot
refrain from commencing their good
example to the property owners of the

HARDWARE MEN MEETING.
Secret Convention in Progress at
the Aberdeen.

There is meeting of a number Of
the prominent hardware jobbers of the
chief cities of the country now in ses-
sion at the Aberdeen. They met yes
teTday, as announced in the G o b e
of Sunday, and will hold two sessions
per day till their adjournment, on Fri
day afternoon. They are considering
matters of private interests to them
selves as joaobers, SO it is difficult to
learn much Of their deliberations. This
forenoon they will inspect, in body,
the new wholesale building Of Far
we'll, OZmun, Kirk & Co., which is
considered among the hardware men
of the country as the model business
house of the entire country in it's line
In fact, one of the jobbers attending
the meeting said it was partly in or
der to get an opportunity to inspect
the new building that the jobbers came
Together here.
The records of the jobbers for the
past year show that in some sections
of the country for the past few months
business has not been as encouraging
as in the earlier part of the year. There
has been decidedrlull and tendency
to shrinkage in values. The jobbers
are hopeful that with the beginning Of
the new year new impetus will be
given trade. There are some fifteen
of the prominent jobbers of the coun-
try representing the great jobbing CEN
ters from New York to San Francisco
and the cities OF the Mississippi and
Missouri valley sections.

Gen. Sanborn Recalls Some Inter-
esting "Reminiscences.
Gen. John B. Sanborn was asked
yesterday what he thought of Senator
Sherman's book of "reminiscences, as
outlined in the press. "I have sub
scribed for the book" said the gen
eral, "but really have not paid much
attention to the newspaper review of
the advance sheets. l never knew
much about the convention at which
Garfield was nominated, as / was not
a delegate; but the ways of politics
are very devious, and if John Sherman
makes the statements attributed to
him I have little doubt but what they
are correct. However, there is this to
be said:
Jerry Rusk, of Wisconsin, and Car
field were stage drivers out of Cincin-
natl when they were young men, and
Rusk thought the world of Garfield.
tt will be remembered that it was Rusk
who nominated Garfield, and the Wis
consin leader seldom or never made a
mistake in politics.. He had a large
fund of horse sense-the very best kind
of sense-and if he had lived would un-
doubtedly have been a leading candi-
date for the nomination next year"
On another subject Gen. Sanborn
spoke Interestingly. He was a mem

the war, and the incident referred to
occurred at the old fremont house in
Chicago. Grant, Sherman, Sheridan
and Rawlins were present among 9TH

drifted onto the available candidates
for the presidency. It was agreed that
a military man must be put forward,
and Grant suggested Sherman. 'Sheri-
dan and have done fairly well as
soldiers said Grant, but Sherman
knows more about the theory and sci
ence of government than any other
general in the army. He is the best
man for the place. Then 1t was that
Sherman asserted positively he would
never make the run. He was emphatic
in the declaration that the burden of
the presidential Office could never be
placed upon his shoulders I know
that Blaine had g. written declaration
to this effect from the general himself
and Sherman always stuck to his de-
termination. Grant, as we know, was
nominated and twice elected, and 9TH
ers followed. but old Tecumseh would

There was some discussion over the
proposed new rife range to be located
on the Fort Smelling reservation. 1t
was shown that the establishment of
the range would: cut off the use of
the Richfield and Bloomington roads,
and thus result In the farmers of those
townships driving to Minneapolis in
stead of ST. Paul. Accordingly, the
following resolution, by Thomas Coch-

Resolved, That the committee on

THE O,LEARY HEIRS EXECUTE
a TRUST DEED FOR $780,
900,
ADJUSTING THE FAILURE.
PROPERTY PLACED IN CARE OF
ID. A. MONFoRT AND JUDGE
LUSK.
The Promised Security Has Beex
Made by the Fam
lily.

AS a partial adjustment of the
liabilities of the firm of ]. J. O'Leary
& Sons, whose failure a short time
ago caused more or less of a sensa-
ton, a deed of trust was given D. A.
Monfort, president of the Second Ma
tional bank, and Judge Lusk, of the
German-American bank, yesterday.
The deed was executed by all the
heirs of John ]. O'Leary ST., de-
ceased, and covers practically all
the property of the estate, including
the fine homestead on Marshall ave
nue.. The consideration named in
the deed is 5000, 600, but as mat
ter of fact it is simply given as Sc
curity for something like $175,00O due
the banks of st. Paul.
Before Mr.. O'Leary died he gave
the German-American bank mort
gage for $4,000 on the estate as Sc
curity for money he had previously
borrowed, and the amount due other
banks on account of the failure was
about $125,000, as near as can be
learned, over and above the stock
on hand, against which the ware
house certificates had been issued.

TOOK HIS OWN LIFE
II. ADAMS, A WASH
INGTON NEWSPAPER MAN,
COMMITS SUICIDE.
HE USED A REVOLVER.
ONE SHOT WAS ALL THAT WAS
NECESSARY TO END HIS EX-
ISTENCE.
PROMINENT ON THE CoAs
st. Paul Relatives Supposed He
Had Gone HOme-No Cause
for 1t.

With his hands crossed upon his
breast and his limbs extended as if
he had been formally prepared for
the grave, Frederick H. Adams, aged
forty-five, newspaper man Of New
Whatcom, Wash, was found dead
upon the sidewalk near the Fourth
street entrance to the Sherman
house restaurant at 4:30 o'clock yes
terday morning. His hat had fallen
across his forehead, partly conceal
ing a stream of blood which flowed
slowly from a bullet wound in his
right temple. Upon the adjoining
wall the blood had spurted freely,
and the dark blotches remained
throughout the day, attracting but
momentary attention during the
morning hours to the spot where
gifted man had taken his own life.
His weapon, a Smith & Wesson re-
volver of 32-caliber, had fallen be-
tween the suicides feet. Only one
shot had been fired, the sound of
which attracted the attention Of
Night Watchman William Gibbons,
a moment after the report was
heard. Gibbons whistled for the po-
lice, who notified the coroner, and
sent the remains to the undertaking
rooms of Thaung & Jacobson, 1923
East Seventh street.
The night clerk of the Sherman
house was attracted by the arrival
of the police, and recognized the sui
eide as Mr. Adams, who was guest
at the hotel He had registered
early Sunday morning, and remained
about the house all day. During
the night he was heard walking rest
lessly about his room. Shortly after
a. m. he came down stairs, fully
dressed for the street. He inquired
where he could find ice water, took
a hearty drink and walked out and
shot himself.
Coroner Whitcomb found among
the dead mans effects a letter to
his physician complaining of ill
health, but there was no note of fare
well or explanation. Mr.. Adams
had been suffering from nervous de-
preston for a long time. The cor
oner decided to hold no inquest.
Mr.. Adams had been visiting his
mother in Madison, Wis, and had ar
rived in st. Paul a few days ago.
He stayed at the residence of his
neice, Mrs. Brigham Bliss, 276 Kent
street, wife Of the exchange teller of
| the Merchants National bank. Mr..
and Mrs. Bliss accompanied their
guest to the depot Saturday night
and bade him farewell aboard the
Great Northern train. He was on his
way home to New Whatcom. He
either went as far as Minneapolis
and returned or left the train here
before he started.
Mr.. Adams was prominent among
the newspaper men of the Pacific
coast. He was a brilliant writer,
and excelled in humorous sketches.
His poetical gifts had also been cul-
tivated with more than ordinary
success. He removed as a young
man from Madison, Wis, to North
Dakota, where he founded the Coop
erstown Courier in 1883. Five years
later he and his partner went out to
the Puget sound country, and estab-
lished the New Whatcom Reveille-
an, one Of the Oldest newspapers on
the coast, and Of which Mr.. Adams
has since been editor. He had never
married.
The remains were shipped to Mad
ison last evening.

In the municipal court yesterday
William Mcdonald, who robbed
OConnor's saloon, on East Seventh

clocks from the Golden Rule.

DAMAGES FOR A KICK.
Meyer TOpIftzky Wants $4,000 for
Injuries to His Son.

The suit of Meyer Toplitzky to recov-
er from George w. Flanagan ct al.
damages for injuries sustained, by the
seven-year-old SON of plaintiff, by be-
ing kicked by one of Flannagan's
horses, is on trial before Judge Otis and
a jury. 1t appears that the little boys
of the neighborhood had been in the
habit of leading the horse to water,
and on this occasion the animal became
fractions and kicked two of the boys.
The plaintiff alleges that it was a race
horse, and was known to be wild and
of a vicious nature. The boy appar-
emily suffered no permanent injuries,
as he was present in court yesterday
and testified very intelligently to the
facts in connection with the accident,
which occurred on June 80 last.
