REDUCING THE AVERAGE.
Prominent Citizens Testify as to
Value of PhaIen Park La0d.

The board of public works yesterday
continued the hearing of testimony in
the matter of determining the value
of the land to be taken for Phalen
park. -Four more owners of property
to be assessed testified, making eight
witnesses on this side, while thus far
five have been heard in behalf of the
owners of the property to be taken.
The valuations of the ninety-six acres
given by yesterdays witnesses Were
all lower than those previously SUBJ
mitted, thereby reducing the general
average from s135, 000.to 100000.
Gen. John B. Sanborn, who is acting
as an attorney for the owners of the
Ames tract, some sixty acres in extent.
did not consider the ninety-six acres
worth over $4,000, or $500 an acre. E.
W. Winter estimated that the tract
was worth see, 600, or about $700 an acre.
In the opinion of R. r. Dunn, the land
is worth $3.50 an acre, or 49, 400 But
Ferdinand Willius capped the climax
by estimating its value at only $500 an
acre, or SIS, 800.
The board then adjourned the hear
ing until 10 a. m. today.

FOR AN AMBULANCE.
St. JOseph's Hospital viii Have
One After July %.

The management of St. JCseph's hos
pital. of this city, has decided, iii ad-
dition to its other improvements, to
conduct a thoroughly equipped ambu-
lance service in conjunction with the
hospital This ambulance is to be
built in st. Paul, and is to be of the
latest design, with rubber tires. ST.
Paul has long been in need of good
ambulance service, such as all large
cities in the East have. 1t is the pur-
pose of the management of St. Jo-
sephs hospital, in so far as accident
cases that are brought to the city hos
pital are concerned, to give the serv-
ice free to the city. Patients brought
to other hospitals, or to their homes,
will be charged a nominal sum, 81.
This charge will help maintain the eX-
penses of the ambulance. The ambu-
lance will he at the call of any police
officer al any time of the day or night,
and will always be accompanied by a
surgeon, thus giving as prompt relief
to the injured as possible. The cost of
the manufacture of the ambulance
will be in the neighborhood of $780,
and to obtain this a. W. Richardson,
of st. Paul, has kindly consented to
give photograph concert at Cretin
hall, Saturday evening, July q.

WHO Is RESPONSIBLE.
The West Side Accident Is Still
Disturbing Factor

Messrs. Arosin and Lewis. of the
assembly committee on streets, took
occasion yesterday to visit the en-
bankment on the West side, where
two children were recently buried
alive, with a view to determining
whether the West side citizens who
addressed the petition to the council
were justified in attempting to hold
the city engineers department re-
sponsible for the accident Whether
the assemblymen settled the matter
to their own satisfaction is not known.
When reminded that there was no
sidewalk under the embankment no
travel over the street in that block
no buildings there, and no complaint
or notification of the condition of the
embankment ever received at the city
engineers office, Assemblyman Aro-
sin shook his head and said:
"That makes no difference
But men equally experienced in city
affairs differ with Mr.. Arosin. Will
lam P. Murray unhesitatingly de-
clared:
cit is absurd to try to cast the re-
sponsibility for this accident upon Mr..
Rundlett or his department. If any
city officials are to be censured for it,
the representatives of the Sixth ward,
Assemblyman Lewis and Aid Hare,
are the ones
Mayor Smith agreed with Mr.. Muir
ray as to the principle, tho <gh his
honor added that he did not consider
that in this case the responsibility
could be loaded upon anybody.

erty conveyed to plaintiff by the prime
lpal OF the bond upon which the latter
was, at the time of the conveyance,
erecting house which he agreed to fin
ish. One Of the considerations for Civ
ing the bond was the agreement of
pialntiff to pay the purchase money
sooner than it was payable according
to the termsof the contract
Held that this was a sufficient con-
sheraton
There was no agreement or under
standing between plaintiff and the
principal on the bond, or between plain
tiff and the sureties, that she should
retain the purchase money and apply
1t to the payment of mechanics liens,
and so far as appears it was all paid
to the vendor before any lien claims
were asserted against the property and
before plaintiff knew that any such
would be asserted. Held that the
sureties We're not released by the fact
that plaintiff thus paid over the pur-
chase money to the vendor
When the bond was presented to G.
for execution as surety the name of P.
was written in the body of the bond as
co-surety. The principal in the bond
informed G. that P would sign it and
when G.. executed the bond he expect
ed that.P. would do so; but there was
no agreement that P. would sign it;
neither was the delivery of the bond by
q. conditioned that it should not be-
come operative until P. executed it.
Held, that G. was liable on the bond
although P. never executed it, and an
other person executed it as co-surety.
When the lien claimants commenced
suit against the plaintiff and her ven
dee (the principal in the bond) to en-
force their liens against the property
plaintiff informed G. of the suit, where
upon G. informed her that he would
attend to the suit and that she need
give it no attention. He then inter
posed an answer for her and conducted
the defense of the suit as attorney for
her and also for his principal. Held,
that in action on the bond the judg-
ment in the lien suit was conclusive
against G. Order affirmed

BUILDING SOCIETY STOCK.
Judge Kelly Makes an Important
Ruling in Il Local Case.

Judge Kelly Makes an Important
Ruling in a Local Case.
A decision filed by Judge Kelly yes
terday in the suit of the East Seventh
Street Building society against Morris
Contain, is of particular interest to
building societies in the city, inasmuch
as it is to the effect that the borrower
must be credited in the payment of a
note with the paid up stock in the So
cfety. In the case under consideration
the plaintiff brought suit to recover
on a note of $500, having refused to
give credit thereon for the stock which
was more than sufficient to pay it. In
the memorandum attached to his order
overruling the demurrer of plaintiff to
the answer of defendant, Judge Kelly
says:
While the payments on the stock
held by a borrowing member of a
building society, and which stock is as
signed to the society as collateral Sc
curity, do not, in the absence of a
bylaw therefor, operate ipso facto as
payments to pro tanto on the debt, yet
such borrower has under certain con-
ditions the privilege, by virtue of his
membership, so to have them applied.
have greater force, where, as in this
case, it is alleged and admitted by the
demurrer that plaintiff is no longer
a going concern, but has refused to
continue its business, and has thus put
it beyond it's power to further accu-
mulate funds to meet the demands of
its members entitled to withdraw.
Having voluntarily ceased to collect
funds in the ordinary course of bust
ness, it ought not to be heard to plead
in a case like this lack of funds.
Defendant alleges that he has given
the notice of withdrawal required, and
that the value of his shares hypothe-
Gated is more than sufficient by any
rule of computation to pay the note
sued upon. To the extent, at least,
of the amount due on the note and
demanded in the complaint, the de-
PENDANTS answer sets up an equity
within the meaning of the statute, if
not a legal defense or counterclaim.
1t is not necessary that 1 determine
here what, if any, further relief defend
ant may be entitled to. Nor is it neces-
sary to fix the rule by which his stock
should be valued. That may better be
/ left to the judge who hears the case
on its merits.

partment will call on the merchants

ranged.
The board of fire commissioners earn
estly request that all merchants and
property owners will comply with the
request of the chief of the fire de-
partment in this matter.
By order of the board of fire com
missioners. ALFRED S. HALL,

A decision filed by the United States
circuit court of appeals yesterday re-
verses the decision of the lower court
in the case of the st. Paul & Northern
Pacific Railroad Company against the

Versed the judgment of the lower

Extensive improvements have been
made to the main exposition hall at

board of managers, has secured an ex-
hibit which will show the process Of
making binder Irvine, through all the
gradations from the raw material
to the finished product.
