Barn Burned.

Fire was discovered in e. E. Kirk
patrick's barn, ON the corner of Roam
and Pine streets, last Saturday night
about 1890 p. m. The alarm was i'm
mediately given, but the fire had gained
such Roadway before the arrival of the
fire company that their services were Of
little use, the building being almost
burned down. The barn was empty
with the exception of two mules thai
were taken out before they were injured
There were no insurance on the proper
ty and Mr.. kirkpatrick sustained loss
of about 800. The fire is supposed tt
have been of incendiary origin.

RETURNING INDICTMENTS.
The Grand Jury Returned Three
Yesterday and Retired to
Debate Over Others.
August Bott Has Indictments
Against Him Dismissed After
Pleading Guilty to One.

The grand jury made a report to
Judge Webber at the opening of court
yesterday morning returning three in
dictments against two persons already
under arrest and in Jail. One of the
indictments was against j. E. Mahoney
charging him with robbery in connect
ion with having held up a man in a
barn at Lamberton and robbing him
of $50 or more.
The other two indictments we're
against Fred Norris. One was for
larceny and the other charged Norris
with robbery. Norris is the young
fellow who worked with Mr.. Rogers, a
farmer residing near Delhi, during the
past summer. About a month ago
after he was discharged by Mr.. Rog-
ers, he went to Delhi, and broke into
the lumber yard of Christensen & Som
erville during the night time and stole
the bicycle of P. F. Henning, the COM
pany's agent. This bike he used in
getting out of town but was caught
about fifteen miles up the road. He
was indicted on the two counts of lar
ceny and robbery.
The grand jury retired for further
business. At the time of going to
press it was Investigating the shooting
of Mic. Welter by L. H. Turner over
in Johnsonville month or more ago,
the particulars of which our readers
are already thoroughly conversant.
The prisoners indicted were arraing-
ed at noon and were given "a hours in
which to plead.
The two indictments against Aug
ust Bott, for shooting two boys near
the water tank of the Northwestern
on the Cottonwood between Sanborn
and Lamberton, were both dismissed
Yesterday morning, after young Bott
entered plea of guilty to assault in
the third degree. The maximum
penalty in the latter is 500 fine or 30
days in Jail. Judge Webber was to
sentence the young man yesterday
afternoon. 1t will probably be fine
of $50, which the father is ready to
pay.
The two cases of A. A. Vanwinkle
VS.. S. E. Bailey and others and against
F. w. Philbrick, we're dismissed yester-
day, plaintiff paying the costs in the
first and given judgment of SIS and
costs in the second.
In the case of VIM. P. Abbott ct al
VS.. Ole 0. Molestadt, Judge Webber
granted the motion of Attorney Dol
lift for the defense for a judgment on
the pleadings and the case was there
fore dismissed.

DISTRICT COURT.
The Largest Calendar of Cases
on Record.

The November term of district court
opened last Tuesday, the session be-
ing called to order at nine o'clock, an
hour earlier than Judge Webber usu-
ally has it called. Only attorneys and
two or three outsiders we're present.
Sheriff Elect Pease was lounging
around the court room getting point
ers on the sheriff's duty so that he
would make no mistakes after taking
charge of the office, while Clerk of
Court-elect Fred L. Warner occupied
a chair on the raise before the clerks 8
desk receiving pointers from Clerk
Byram and doing some clerical work
so that he could get his hand in for
business after the first Monday in jan
uary.
The object of calling the early ses-
sion was to go through the calendar
before Judge Webber charged the
grand jury, a routine scheduled for
ten o'clock. There we're about 70 cas-
es called and out of this grist 81 were
found to be set for trial and jury cases,
so that there is very little chance for
getting the tail end of the calendar be-
fore jury this term. They will like
ly be disposed of at a special term.
The tax cases, as usual, we're con-
tinued. There was little merriment
when case was reached down the
calendar wherein w. L. Pierce was
attorney for defendant. Judge Bow
ers remarked that the case would
probably have to be continued as
"Pierce has not yet returned" Judge
Webber interpolated to the effect that
"Pierce was in the Cuban army for a
better cause" whereupon general
laughter followed at the expense of
Nearly all OF the Citizen
Bank cases we're stipulated to be tried
before referee. The case of Osher
vs.. Osher, out of which some sensa-
tional evidence is expected, has been
continued. The case of Thurber VS..
McGeough has been settled as has
also the case of Matt. Hoffman vs.. The
Board of Sherman township and the
case of Lucinda A. Houck vs.. The
Warren Scharff Asphalt Paving Co.,
the latter an action to recover on ac-
count of an injury received while step
ping into a hole created by the pave
ment company on the corner of Fourth
and Sibley streets, St. Paul. Mrs.
Houck was in that city during the
State Fair week at the time of the
accident.
In the case of Laird-Norton Co. VS..
Elias Miller, judgment was awarded
to the plaintiff. Miller erected hotel
at the gold mine. Laird Norton Co.
furnished the lumber. For this they
afterwards placed lien on the prem
ises.- Miller paid portion of the bill,
but not all of it and now the building
will probably be sold to pay the bal
ance.

FAIR Day NOV. 25TH.
The Day Will Be Devoted to a Car
nlva1 of Arabesque and
Grotesque Costumes.
The City to Put on a Holiday Attire
and Dress in the Ma.
tiOndl COlOrS,

The next monthly fair will occur in
Redwood Falls on Wednesday, Nov.
25th.
Arrangements are still in an embryo
condition, but something unique is
being planned for that day. All of
the business houses of the city will be
gaily decorated in the National colors.
It is proposed to have all the busi-
ness men and clerks and citizens gen.
orally, Including the ladies who are on
the streets that day attired in cos
tunes entirely out of the regular
order. These costumes are to par
take of the arabesque and grotesque.
The clerks, especially, are likely to ap-
pear in costumes that will be decided
ly humorous while the street costumes
of local pedestrians and of the ladies
will be gorgeous and attractive. The
band will also appear in gala Co.'S
tunes. If sufficient masks can be Sc
cured no one residing in the city will
appear on the streets except under a
mask. This will give a genuine
carnival appearance to the city. Com
mittees to carry this scheme through
will be announced later.
Special attention will be paid to
produce on the day in question. Ar
rangements will have been perfected by
that time whereby all poultry, etc.,
brought to the city, will be purchased
at a premium price. A special
premium will be offered where the
sellers take due bills on local mer-
chants. Farmers should see that
they bring in their produce on that
day as we'll as stock, the local cattle
dealers having agreed to pay an ad-
vance on all stock offered to them for
sale.
The Fair day will be the day before
Thanksgiving. It will be a good
time to dispose of the produce and
make purchases. The highest price
will be offered for one and goods in
stores will be offered at the lowest
price.

OF JEFFERSON
There Will BE Large Representation
at the Sound Money
Convention.
Villas URGED FOR PRESIDENT
The Senator Is Being Pushed as the
Most Logical Candidate-One Of
the First 10 Respond TO the
Call Of His Party.

indianapolis. August 9.-Credentlals
Of the various states and territories
are being received and tabulated at
the National Democratic headquarters.
II is stated that proxies will be few
and that practically every state and
territory that has nominated delegates
will be represented by the vote.
Applications for tickets Of admission
are pouring in. II will probably be the
plan Of those having the distribution
in charge to give persons from abroad
the preference.
Many letters from all over the Unit
ed States received at headquarters ex-
press preference for certain presidential
candidates. Senator Villas is being
urged as the most logical candidate
by several sections OF the country. His
friends base their claim on the fact
that he attended the gold Democratic
conference at Chicago: that ne was one
OF the first men to respond when the
opponents of the Chicago platform
were called together to determine their
course Of action. 1t is further urged
that the plan OF organization and the
general scheme under which the con-
vention meets came largely from Mr..
Villas, who was in that conference. The
national committee win convene Sep
tember 1.

THE FINANCIAL
SITUATION
New York Banks Make a Magnificent
Showing Against Great
Odds.
RESERVE IS ABOVE AVERAGE
Heavy Losses to the Interior but the
Net Decrease in Cash Much small
er than Was Expected-En-
couraging Features.

New York, August 2S.--The New York
Financier says:
The movement Of money out Of the
clearing house banks since July IS has
reduced their deposits nearly S54.000,-
900, and In the same length Of time
their loans have shrunk $24.OOO,OO0. De-
spite this heavy drain, however, the
bank statement for the current week
is repetition in its favorable features
OF the one preceding It, and the banks
at what might be called the apex Of
the present stringent situation. hold
nearly S9,OO0,000 more cash than the
law requires. 1t Is true that this cash
is not equally distributed, and that
many Of the Institutions are below their
legal reserves: but the showing is en-
couraging in many ways. The opera
tons which brought about the change
In the present statement are similar
TO those Of the previous week. The
banks lost heavily to the Interior, but
the net decrease in cash was much
smaller than had been expected.
1t is encouraging to note that the re-
serve is still above the average at this
season for a long series Of years pre-
ceding the 1898 panic. The heavy inflow
Of foreign gold win have a marked ef-
feet on succeeding bank statements,
and money rates promise to fall ma
terially before the end Of the season.
There is no doubt that imports will
continue uutil the legitimate demand
for money is satisfied. Nothing but
an Unforeseen panic can put rates back
to the figure they have held for several
weeks past.

MINISTER EXPELLED.

Denver, Col. August 2s-The Color
ado NJ E. conference has expelled the
Rev. F. f. Passmore from the minis
try because he accused Bishop Warren
of being in league with saloonkeepers
and gamblers. Passmore takes the
ground that in voting or working for
the Republican or Democratic tickets
minister of the gospel practically
leagues himself with the saloon ele-
ment. and his position is against that
canon of the Methodist discipline which
asserts that the licensing of the liquor
traffic is a sin.
