a DOCTOR ARRESTED
On Complaint of II Patient That
He Has No License.


DR.. w. S. Arons, physician with
offices in the Washburn building, was
arrested yesterday afternoon by o.
ficer Daily on warrant sworn out by
John Snow, who changes the doctor
with practicing medicine without a
license. The prisoner was at once
taken before the municipal court and
promptly released on a bail bond OF
500. The bond was signed by Health
Commissioner Stone. The case will
come up before Judge Orr this morn
ing.
DR.. Arons explains that his arrest
is merely a piece of spite work and
that, although he has no license at
present from the state authorities,
he is nevertheless complying strictly
with the law. He holds receipt for
fees paid July to Thomas McDermott,
secretary of the Minnesota medical
examining board. These examination
fees were paid when DR.. Arons first
began to practice in this city. He has
not vet received his license Simply
because no regular examination Will
be accorded to applicants until Octo-
Der. Meanwhile, as is customary, DR..
AronS will practice until enabled to
appear before the state board. Should
it then be shown that he was in no
way qualified to render medical Serv-
ices. he would be liable to prosecution
under the state law. Folks United
States Medical and Surgical Reporter
shows that DR.. W. S. Arons was a
practicing physician last year at Ak
ron, o.; that he was a graduate OF
a regular medical institution; and
that. he began practice in 1876.

PLAIN CASE OF SUICIDE.
A Body Found in the Mississippi
River Yesterday.

The body of a presumed suicide,
middle-aged man, was found in the
river at Fort Smelling about S:45 a.
m. yesterday by a boy named Clarence
Vollaber. A large stone was attached
to the body by means of a rope. When
the f1oater was first discovered it was
in the channel just below the bridge
and on the st. Paul shore. An exam
ination, made an hour later by Ser
geant Horn, of the Central station, and
Coroner Whitcomb, showed the re-
mains to be those of a man six feet
tall, weighing 10 pounds, and about
fifty years of age. The crown of his
head was bald. He had short, light
brown hair and Donegal whiskers Of
the same color, tinged with gray. His
eyes were blue. His head was, of
course, bare and he wore no coat.
Upon his feet were cCwhide boots.
His trousers were of blue wooden, his
vest of black diagonal cloth, his shirt
of black cotton, with white star or
clover leaf spots. There was no collar.
Not a single article was to be found
in the pockets. A careful examination
revealed no trace of wounds or Vlo-
lence. A slender cord had been fast
ened around a large fiat stone weighing
about twenty pounds. The other end
of the cord had been passed about the
mans neck under his left arm and tied
across his chest. The stone was thus
about four feet from the body. The
man having evidently been alive when
he reached the water, he could have
easily broken the cord had it been at
tached to him by another person. 1t
was therefore apparent that the de-
ceased had taken his own lie, fasten-
ing the stone to himself in order to
further aid his object. The officials
believe that the heavy stone, though
not raised from the bottom, had been
dragged along by the current, and
that the drowning had taken place
some distance above the fort. The
body was much swollen, and had ap-
parently been in the water about a
week. The coroner decided to hold
no inquest and ordered the remains
taken to the undertaking rooms Of
Mccarthy & Donnelly to be speedily
inferred. The Minneapolis authorize:
were notified.

GREAT RUN OF THE EMPIR

The 14S Miles From Syracuse to

The 14S Miles From Syracuse to
Albany Covered in 40 Minutes.
A feat in railroading was performed
Saturday on this section of the New
York Central, which, though not infre-
quently paralleled on this most efficient
and speedy of roads, is certainly calcu-
lated to make one wonder The feat
was nothing less than the accomplish
ment by the great Empire State EX-
press of a distance of 14S miles in 40
minutes. something scarcely possible,
with safety, to a less thoroughly gov
erned and mechanically perfect road.
The Empire arrived in Syracuse Sat
urday afternoon forty-one minutes late,
was delayed three minutes by its stop at
Utica, and four minutes in this city
by accommodation train No. Y, but
arrived in Albany at 7:0S having made
the 148 miles from Syracuse in 40 min
utes, this of course being actual run
ming time with stops deducted. Such
moving across country for such a dis
lance is enough to convince any old
I! time obstructioniSt that we of the pres
ent day are actually 'tfying' into the
face of Providence

Aid. Markham's ordinance was then
referred to the committee on streets.
Aside from the foregoing, the meet
ing was tame.
William Pitt Murray enlivened the

against the passage of the amended or
dinance recommended by the commit
tee on public buildings as published
elsewhere in this issue, which instructs
the marketmaster to hereafter collect
the rental fees from the hucksters on
West Third street, from Wabasha
street to Seven corners. Mr.. Murray
wanted the ordinance referred to some
committee in order to afford the inter-
eSted property owners an opportunity
to be heard. Mr.. Murray contended
that the city had no right to collect
market fees Or rents from teams stand
ing in front of private property. Aid.
Markham moved the immediate adop-
ton of the ordinance, but Aid. Murphy
and Aid. Hare favored a reference
upon the grounds set forth by Mr..

Franchises Are Assessed Like
Taxable Property.
The matter of the assessment of fran
chises, which has been much discussed
of late among tax officers and taXpay-
ers, is not so novel as many have been
led to believe. Robert Seng, the coun-
ty assessor, said yesterday that it was
no new thing at all; that the franchises
of quasi-public corporations are as
sessed the same as other taxable assets
and always have been; that they are
subject to adjustment and equalization
as other taxable property, and when
the valuation reported by the corpora
tons is toe low 1t is raised to the prop
er figure. Mr.. Seng, who has been be-
sieged by inquirers on the subject day
after day for some time back, hopes
the MINDS of the taxpayers will be
tranquilized on this score. He has the
the franchises on his list
