CITY OFFICIALS LAYING PIPE
TO SECURE THEIR POT OF
GOLD
HEADS ARE PUT TOGETHER.
A TEST ACTION WILL SOON BE
BROUGHT AGAINST THE AIU-
NICIPALITY.
SEVERAL INDIVIDUAL SUIT
Likely to Be BrOught-omcfais
Will Face the Storm of Crit
icism Together.

The heads of the city departments
are beginning to miss the salaries
they did not draw for the month
Of July and are about to take action
regarding the matter. In the course
Of few days they will hold an I'M
obtrusive little meeting and deter
mine how and when that action shall
be begun, and who shall begin it.
In other words, they are going to
sue the city of st. Paul for their un-
paid salaries, and for the full amount
thereof, as fixed by the act of the
legislature and incorporated in the
City charter.
From time to time the city officials
have informally talked the matter
over. The plan of allowing some one
official to pose as the plaintiff in
single action and thereby establish
a test case has been suggested, but
will probably be abandoned, as it
involved the delicate question
which" city official would assume the
somewhat painful prominence his
name would attain as sole plaintiff
against the City in an action so I'M
popular with the taxpayers. The
probability is that the burden will
be equally divided among them
that is to say, each official whose sal
airy is fixed by the charter and VINO
refuses to accept any reduction IN
der the Hare resolution, will bring
suit individually, and thus face to-
gether the storm of criticism that
will follow, instead OF budding I'M
der shelter and leaving one lone man
to stand outside and brave the hur-
ricane without a companion in his
misery.

THE FISHERMEN BOLD
Have Returned From Alexandria
Loaded With Specimens.

nave returned from alexandria
Loaded With Specimens.
The fishermen bold of the CONNER
cial club are back from their tour of
the Alexandria lakes. They brought
with them a dog fish, a pike and
bass, together with a large assert
ment of mysterious monsters which
they assert are fish. The party, led by
President Footner and Secretary Nc
Ginnis, consisted of Ed Paradis, F. NJ.
Wheeler, D. Roussopoulos, Inspector
McNair, F. G. Walther, DR.. Sandberg;
Frank Brewster and others. A relief
expedition went up Saturday to bring
the first party out of the wilderness
The fishers tried a new brand of bait
on each Of five lakes-Mary, Reno, Os-
car, Carlos and Miltona- At the latter
point they came upon the encamp-
ment of the Chicago club and DESC
lated the latter's larder.
The largest of the three genuine fish
that returned with the expedition was
a ten-pound creature of the dog vari-l
ETY.. 1t was dragged into the boat by
F. G. Walther, who thought it was
weed. A six-pound pike was taken by
another man with McGinnis' tackle,
who therefore claims the catch; while
Mr.. Roussopoulos bought five-pound
bass of a farmer. The consignment
of Shiny mysteries that the rest of the
crowd had caught or stolen, were
seized on their arrival here, by Exec
utive Agent Fullerton, of the game
and fish commission. When, however.
President Footner went up to the
agents Office and proved by the unbi-
ased testimony of Mr.. McGinnis that
the contraband things, barring a few
crabs and water snakes, were really
catfish, Mr.. Fullerton allowed the de-
lighted secretary to take the Shiny
sack on his shoulders and carry it back
to the club. The expedition was in
formed that it would have escaped all

The committee on arrangements for
the Labor day celebration of the
trades and labor assembly considered
last night the advantages of Wild

will start from Rice park at $3.50 a. M.
is expected to contain many more
floats and bands than last year. At
least eight musical organizations will
be in line. 1t is intended also that
the sports shall present a number of
novel features. A committee will try
to secure the cooperation of the bust

to close during the whole of Labor
day, and to assist the trades and labor
assembly in furnishing prizes for the

facilities for reaching the Fort, and

BRUTAL ACT OF A BOY.
Pulls OFF the Leg of 81 Live Cat
Humane Society After Him.

Humane Society After Him.
Secretary Hutchins, of the humane
society, yesterday swore out a war
rant for the arrest of Pat Larkin,
little boy of ten, living on Water
street, on the West side. The charge
is cruelty to animals. Little Pat, it
is alleged, pulled the hind leg off
Of a black cat named Billy. This
was certainly unkind to Billy, and
the case presents few extenuating
circumstances. According to the tes-
timony of another youth, who claims
that he witnessed the dismember-
ment of Billy, the latter was not an
offensive cat. He never bothered Pat
when meal time arrived, but pre-
ferred instead to steal impartially
of the neighbors. He did not scratch
nor bite. Even when he saw a dog
who made unfriendly remarks, Billy
would simply enlarge his tail and
pass on with dignity and a crooked
back. Although, like all black cats,
he dearly loved the light of the moon
and stars, his enjoyment of the Silly
t.
He rarely sang himself, although he
enjoyed the voices of his neighbors.
When he did sing, his carrolings
were clear and we'll modulated, if a
trif1e shrill. Altogether, he was far
from being a wicked or depraved
cat.
But Monday of last week Billy re-
fused to smoke a cigarette rendered
him by one Of the boys. For this
trifling discourtesy Billy was tied
to a tree by a piece of wire that
passed around his neck and around
the tree. Then an unfeeling boy
caught the wretched cats hind leg
and literally pulled it out of it's
socket. The helpless victim was dy-
ing when he was thrown into the
river. After him was cast his hind
leg. 1t is scarcely probable that the
little boys realized the brutality of
the act, but Secretary Hutchins in
tends that the matter. shall be in
vestigated.

chariot races and other engrossing

So Says Sutton-EnsDector Bloom
field Finding Bad Boilers.
It had been reported that State Boil
er Inspector Sutton intended to re-
sign, but when seen yesterday, Mr..
Sutton denied the truth of such
statement, saying Indignantly. that he
had no such intention.
Mr.. Sutton has received a letter
from Inspector Bloomfield, who is out
in the Third district, inspecting the
boilers of threshing machines, in
which the inspector reports having
found a number of boilers in Goodhue
county from which the blocks of tin,
used to give warning when the water
has gone down below the danger
point, had been removed and iron bolts
put in their places. This little block
of tin covers hole in the boiler near
the fire box. When the water goes
down the tin melts, and the escaping
steam puts out the fire. The owners of
the machines evidently did not care
for any safeguard, but the inspector
promptly ordered the tin replaced.
