UNIQUE EXPLANATION
Of the Theft Of a Wheel, Which
Didn't Go With the Court.


Antony Florawell, a printers ap-
prentice, was held to the grand jury
; in the municipal court yesterday on a
charge Of grand larceny, in default of
$500. The prisoner, a boy of sixteen,
is accused Of stealing a $100-bicycle
belonging to S. w. Matteson A few
days ago Mr.. Matteson left his wheel
standing for several hours in front Of
the New York Life Insurance building.
1t was not locked, and was missing
when Mr.. Matteson came out of the
building. Some time later he caught
a glimpse of his bicycle being ridden
rapidly down Wabasha street An Of
ficer was Informed and gave chase.
The race terminated in West st. Paul.
where Florawell was arrested.
The prisoner gave a unique explana-
ton in court of how he obtained the
wheel, which he firmly denied having
stolen. He said he was standing at
Fourth and Wabasha streets swinging
piece of brass chain, when two news
boys approached him. They had a
bicycle with them. Attracted by the
glittering chain they offered the Victor
bicycle in exchange. Florawen jumped
at the bargain and rode away on the
cheapest wheel ever sold in St Paul.
He was unable to describe the news
boys.

Resolved, That, in view of the great
financial loss it would be to him

citizens to withhold their opposition
at this time, and at the same time we
assure the public that if the ball park
shall become nuisance, we shall be
the first in moving for its abatement.
At the close of the meeting a petit
ton to the mayor, in line with these
resolutions, and asking that no legal
impedient be placed in Capt. Comis-
keys way, was brought into the hall
and signed by every one present The
petition was only started Thursday,
yet it already contains the signatures
and addresses of several hundred of
the most prominent citizens of the
Eighth ward, including practically all
of the property owners in the immedi-
ate vicinity Of the base ball grounds.
Following is
THE PETITION:
To Hon. Robert A. Smith, Mayor of
the City of st. Paul:
We, the undersigned citizens of the
Eighth ward of this city, residing near
the locality where Manager Comiskey
has located his base ball park, and
others, learning that there is an effort
being made to prevent Mr.. Comiskey
from using or leasing his base ball
park for ball games or other anause-
ments on the Sabbath day, most re-
spectfully represent: That the public
has known for months that base ball
park was to be located in this city,
and, as in all other great cities, Sun
day games would be played. And now,
after the park has been located, with
out objection from the adjacent prop
erty owners, and thousands of dollars
nave been expended in improving it,
thereby giving employment to laboring
classes, and money to those furnish
ing material, and an expensive lease
entered into with the owner of the
ground for a. term of years, and, as he
Is now about ready for the seasons
business, he is opposed.
We, your petitioners, therefore most
earnestly protest against this opposi-
ton as being unfair, unjust and in
furious to Mr.. Comiskey, and insist
that this opposition should have been,
If at all, started before he expended
SO much money and entered into his
expensive contracts. And we most re-
spectfully request and petition that
Mr.. Comiskey be not interfered with,
as we believe the public will have no
grounds for complaint, as Mr. CON-
iskey is himself a staunch and well
known advocate of law and order In
the management of his business, for
which your petitioners will ever pray.

LIBEL SUIT NO GO.
The Case Of Patrick McAuliffe
Against the Pioneer Press
Dismissed,
BUT WITHOUT PREJUDICE.
His Demand for Retraction
Was Served on a Re-
porter,
BUT WITHOUT PREJUDICE.
AND JUDGE KERR RULES
That This Was Not Sufficient.
It Must Be Served on 1
Publisher.

Judge Kerr yesterday dismissed,
without prejudice, on motion of the
plaintiff, the $1,000 libel suit of Pat
rick McAuliffe, of South st. Paul
against the Pioneer Press. This suit
grew out of the publication of an
item in the paper some time last
winter concerning a cutting scrape
in South Park, in which McAuliffe
was charged with using knife on
Andrew Lofstad. 1t was not this part
of the story to which McAuiffe took
exception, however, but to another
statement in the same item charging
him with being a man of no family,
and having done nothing for a year
but loaf around saloons. McAuliffe
demanded a retraction, but the only
retraction made was the publication
of a statement to the effect that
Chief of Police Gibbons, of South st.
Paul, said that the statement that
McAuliffe had no family and had
done nothing but loaf around sa-
looms was untrue.
After McAuliffe began the suit the
Pioneer people got their ginger I'D
and proposed to justify the publica-
ton of the original story by Show
ing that it was subst antially true.
But the case did not get as far along
as this when it came to trial It was
shown that the only demand Nc
Auliffe made for a retraction was
made on a reporter, who passed it
to the city editor, but it never went
even as far as the editor in chief.
The reporter sWore that
M'AULIFFE WAS DRUNK
when he made the demand, at that.
Judge Kerr, in ruling upon question
raised regarding the sufficiency of this
demand, held that it was not sufficient.
He said that the law contemplated that
legal notice for retraction must be
served on the publisher, and the pub
Usher, in this case, was corporation.
Service on an employee could not be
construed as a legal service unless that
employe was also an officer of the
company. Had the notice been served
on the city editor or even the manae-
ing editor, he would hold that it was
insufficient. Even if it had been served
on the editor-in-chief, he was not sure
that 1t would be enough, unless the edi-
Gor-ln-chief was also an officer of the
company or at least interested in it
financially
This ruling left the plaintiff sus-
pended in the air, so his attorney
moved for dismissal without prejudice.
The ruling is very important to news
papers and attorneys interested in this
class Of suits, as well as to people Ii
beled.
T 1t was understood that in accord
ance with the ruling of Judge Kerr
concerning the. service. of notice Oh the
publishers, the Pioneer Press would
this morning, publish a retraction OF
the alleged libelous article.

AT the Church of the Messiah. on
Fuller, near Kent street, last night
Rev. c. b. Haupt and thirteen of his
narishioners held a brief meeting and

Desperation of the Sabbath. One of
the speakers alleged that certain of
last Sundays audience had committed
acts which were reprehensible, and the
question of having the players ar
rested was discussed, but no one was
able to tell Just how it was to be
done. A committee on resolutions was
finally appointed and drew up resolu-
tions denouncing Sunday base ball.
