Reevs & Gilman, st. Paul
Yours of 1921, is noted. There is no Ques-
ton that you should have your pay for any
insurance you might have placed for Mr.. Low
er:ng, and he has had ample amounts in his
hands at all times to pay them, info our esti-
nation and which seems to have been shown
conclusvely before the court. He has misap-
propriated about 81 800 in the time he has
been running the building, ostensibly for me,
but out of the proceeds of which l have never
received a cent. He collected rents ahead in
some instances three months, by giving large
discounts, retaining the money, and in every
instance, SO far as we can understand, play
ing the thief and robber. l never had any
thing to do with placing the insurance either
by dictatiOn of companies or payment Of pre-
mums. In fact, l was only mortgage, as
has been already shown in the court in the
that l have not received benefits in this mat
ter that might have the ability to pay your
bill. If Mr.. Lowering had the first qualities
OF manly honesty he would pay your claim
without hesitapcy, for, as I said before. he
has had ample means to do SO.

IT'S PARTISANs ARE STILL TRYING
TO GET THi- INSANE
HOSPITAL.
MINORITY MET YESTERDAY,
BUT TOOK NO DEFINITE ACTION
SO FAR AS CAN BE
LEARNED.
In Minneapolis to Decide What 1t
VIII Do During the Coming
Winter.

The minority of the committee ap-
pointed to select a site for the fourth
hospital for the insane Is said to be
figuring upon another move in the
question of it's location, but whether
this will be made in the courts or the
legislature is still secret known only
to the minority.
Steps were commenced yesterday in
this direction, if rumor is true, and the
minority, comprising Commissioners
Bondy, Carlson and Smith, together
with mayor Parker and Messrs. Ma
10y and Bailey, of Hastings held
meeting in st. Paul The meeting was
secret and no one knows just what
was done.
The minority of the commission, as
is known, is opposed to the location
Of the hospital at Anoka but. since
the decision of the supreme court in
the matter was rendered. the minority
have not had much to say. Not all
of the minority are in favor of Hast
ings, one at least basing his opposi-
ton to Anoka upon the fact that the
site in that city is not as suitable as
several others which were offered
liz iNC SCHltcI4lCIl IdII1CO iilSt III Tic
office Of Attorney Charles Durment,
New York Life building, yesterday
afternoon, and talked the matter over.
Asked as to the outcome of the meet
ing, Mr.. Durment said to a reporter Of
the G o b e:
II cannot say what was done, as
do not know, but 1 will say that, if
the gentlemen are considering fur
Their move in the courts, 1 am not aware
Of it. The gentlemen wanted a place
to meet and l gave them my private
office. Since the supreme court held
that the commission was a regular
body and had the authority to employ
regular attorney, 1 have not acted
in any capacity for the minority SO
am not in possession of their secrets, If
they have any,.
II will say, however, that, after the
gentlemen had been in session, Mr.
Parker came out and said that the
committee had decided to await the
outcome of the meeting of the COM
mission in Minneapolis today. They
will attend that meeting, and will first
become familiar with the report to be
offered anent the Anoka site, before
they decide what they will do. 1t may
be that all three of them will sign
the report, if it is satisfactory"
The expectation is, however, that the
majority report will not suit them, and
they will prepare a minority report
for the legislature. What else they may
do remains to be seen.

is UP TO THE MAYOR.
broadway Loop Ordinance Now in
HIS Hands.

The Broadway loop ordinance. which
the assembly passed last Thursday
night, has gone to the mayor for his
approval or disapproval, as the case
may be. It reached his honor's office
yesterday morning. The charter pre-
scribes that the mayor shall have five
days from the receipt of a measure
from the common council within which
to sign or veto it, If he does neither
the measure becomes effective at the
expiration of the five days, and is pub
lished
At the present stage Mayor Doran is
in a Quandary over the ordinance. He
admits that he is in a state of uncer-
tainty. Speaking CT the matter yester-
day, the mayor said:
"Cf course might refuse to sign or
veto the ordinance and in that way
allow it to become effective under the
charter rule, but I don't believe In
shrinking responsibility in such a mat
ter, SO l shall take definite course.
What course l am not prepared to say
yet. There is certainly a good deal to
be said on beth sides of this question
and for that reason 1 shall grant a
hearing tomorrow to representatives of
the retail ard the jobbing interests,
and then follow my best Judgment
The mayor may accordingly prepare
himself for a lively session today with
the retailers and jobbers.

ST. AUBIN AND MURPHY
Are Held Another Week to Await
Preliminary Hearing.

John ST. Aubin and Joseph Murphy,
two members of the alleged gang of
burglars. rounded up by the police last
week, were arraigned in the municipal
court yesterday afternoon. There are
several counts each which the men
will be called upon to face when they
are given a preliminary hearing, but
meme of the evidence was gone into
yesterday, the proceedings being more
of formal manner Of holding the men
for the preliminary examination. Pat
rick Rogan, the youthful associate of
the alleged burglars, was in court as
a witness, but was not charged with
having been implicated with any of
the crimes said to have been COM
mitted by the gang. ST. Aubin and
Murphy were each held in 81, 500 bonds
until Dec. %, on the charge of burglary,

The statement that several pupils
attending the schools of the city were
not, owing to their mental condition,
fit subjects for tuition and should be
placed in private schools or asylums
was investigated recently by a G 10
reporter. So far as could be ascer-
tanned, there were but two cases which
might give rise to the statement In
one instance the pupil showed signs Of
not being over bright, and, after q
term in one of the schools, the parents
were advised that it would be much
better for the child if arrangements
were made to have it taught privately
The parents were naturally much
grieved, but followed the advice of the
teachers, and the child was withdrawn
from the school. The other case has
been reported, but. as it was in one Of
the lower grades and the pupil showed
signs of improvement, it had been
deemed best by the teacher to wait I'M
til after the present term ended before
any action was taken. A number of
the principals seen stated that, while
there was great difference IN the
mental capacity of the children who
attended the schools, they knew of no
pupils now attending who could be
classed as imbecfles or idiots.
One teacher stated that, while she
had no remembrance of hearing any,
thing about children of that capacity
now in the lists, there had been cases
where the children were so dull as
to permit of great doubt as to their
mental capacity being above that of the
classes for which special schools are
provided At the same time, it was u
very difficult matter to rule that any
child was improperly placed in the
schools, and, therefore, doubly difficult
to ask for their removal. The teach
ers, therefore, did the best they could,
with kindness and persistence to edu-
cate the little ones, and, if even then,
they were unable to keep up, they
dropped back to the next class. No
teacher, she thought, would keep her
classes back while waiting for the lag
gard to develop. The work Of the
class would naturally be her first care,
and those who were unable to keep
up would fall, although the teacher
might endeavor to make up the de-
fc1ency by special labor in particular
cases.

Sudden Death Of an Old Soldier at
Smelling.

Charles Beckman tailor for Com
pany II at Fort Smelling, was found
dead in his bed at the company quar-
tiers shortly after o'clock yesterday
morning. A large confusion was found
at the base of the skull, and an in
vestigation led to the discovery that
Beckman had fallen down a flight Of
stairs. Coroner sKistler, of Hennepin
county, held an autopsy at the fort
hospital yesterday afternoon. Beckman
was found to have struck upon the back
Of his head and partially broken his
neck, though he managed to crawl to
his couch after the fall. The coroner
was of the opinion that the death was
purely accidental, and decided an in
quest unnecessary. 1t is said at the
fort that Beck1nan was addicted to the
use of liquor, and that he had been out
on carousa14 before he fell down the
stairs. Returning home alone, it is
thought he lost his balance on the
stairway and fellto his DEATH He was
seventy-six years Of age and a retired
soldier, who had served forty years in
the army. Since his retirement, he has
