ZELCH Is HELPLESS
in Revision of Boiler Inspectors
Licenses,

Complaint is being made in many To-
calities, particularly in the rural dis
tricts, with respect to the alleged laxity
in granting engineers licenses. The
following letter, recently received by
the G o b e, is a sample Of the COM
plants:
To the Editor of the Globe.
Dear Sir: 1 would like to have this article
come before the public of Minnesota in re-
gard to our engineers license law, which,
l think, is somewhat corrupt. If l under
stand it right, the engineers license law Is
for the protection of life and property, but
the way things are going on it is neither.
Now, l think it would be we'll enough to
warn the people of the state of Minnesota of
the danger that they are in through the en-
ployment of men who are not qualified for
handling steam boilers and steam vessels.
There is too much Of this going on now
adays. l think it would be far better If the
state would grand nothing lower than sec
end grade engineers licenses. 1 think by
that way of doing We would obtain good
nesota has enough to supply the demand
without employing unskilled men and en-
dangering life and property.
John Zelch, the chairman of the state
board of boiler inspectors, who return
ed yesterday from his home at
Saltwater, stated, in regard to
the letter, that the chief diff
the old licenses. Where man had pre-
Viously held a license in a certain
grade, perhaps higher than he now ap-
pears to deserve, the law gave the in
spector no right to examine him, but
so long as the man was willing to take
the oath to perform the duties requir-
ed of him, the department had nothing
to do but grant the license.
He stated further, that the licenses
We're chiefly in the first and second
classes, as suggested by the writer Of
the communication. There were a few,
a very few, who were entitled to chief
engineers licenses, and there were some
specials, although these were mostly
the owners of threshing engines or out
fits. If they could properly answer the
questions propounded to them concern
ing the construction and operation of
steam bed boilers and engines, then
there was no apparent cause for refus-
ing them a license. AS far as the in
spector was concerned, however, he
could only be held responsible for the
new licenses issued during his term of
office.

criticisms of N. P. Langford that the

nothing to say. He did not think IT
necessary to make a defense of his

THROWN FROM HIS WAGON.
John Bossard Meets With a Peculiar
Accident.


An accident took place at Fifth and
Jackson streets shortly after o'clock
last evening in which John Bossard,
cigarmaker living at No. II Sycamore
street, was seriously injured. Beyond
the fact that Bossard, who was driv-
ing along Jackson street in a buggy,
was struck by a street car, nothing
definite is known of the occurrence.
When officer Carey was notified of
the accident he hurried to the scene
and found the car had gone and Bos-
sard had been removed to Frederick
Bohman's saloon on Jackson, near
Fifth street. The injured man had a
deep cash on the side of his head, and
complained OF severe internal pains.
No one was present who had seen
the accident, and Bossard was too
dazed to give any information con-
corning the affair. He was taken to
the city hospital in the central patrol
wagon, but the full extent of his in
juries could not be determined last
evening. Bossard has a wife and
four children, who were notified of the
accident through the Rondo street po-
lice authorities.

BIDS ARE OPEN TO THE PUBLIC

DERBID HOME CONCERNS THEY

ALARM CONCERNING MILWAUKEE,
Felt by Local BriclSlayers Is Prema-
ture-CompetitiOn Will Cut q
Figure.
BIDS ARE OPEN TO THE PUBLIC
ALARM CONCERNING MILWAUKEE,

The action Of the bricklayers' union
In adopting resolutions petitioning the
capitol commission to let contracts for
work on the new capitol only to resi-
dents Of Minnesota will have no eff
feet upon the commission, as the pro-
ceedings of that body are all regulat-
ed by law. Charming Seabury, the
chairman Of the commission, said last
night:
''The action Of the bricklayers' union
is premature, in so far as it is based
on any apprehensions regarding the
intention of Milwaukee contractors to
import men here who will do the work
at lower wages. There Is no more rea-
son to suppose that Milwaukee con-
tractors will secure any of the work
than there is to expect that those of
any other city will be selected.
THE special act Of the legislature
under which the commission operates
requires that all work on the capitol
building exceeding $1,000 in amount
must be advertised for by public adj
vertisement for fifteen days in at least
two daily papers published in the state
OF Minnesota The commission is au-
thorized to award the contracts for
the different kinds of work to the low
est responsible bidders, though the
commission is empowered to reject all
bids in case they are deemed too high.
1t Will readily be seen that under these
conditions the commission cannot con-
line its awards to contractors residing
in the state of Minnesota In other
words, we cannot shut out all the 9TH
er states and restrict the competition
to Minnesota. To be sure, in case Of
an equality between two bids, which
is a most unlikely event, a resident
contractor, II responsible, would re-
ceive the preference. In case, how
ever, that a nonresident firm should Sc
cure a contract to do any of the work
the capitol commission would have no
power to regulate the wages paid by
such firm
Mr.. Seabury said that the next duty
of the commission would be to in
spect the final plans and estimates,
which Cass Gilbert, the architect, ex-
poets to submit on the goth or 25th Of
the month.
THE commission will go over these
estimates carefully" added Mr.. Sea-
bury, 'in order to make sure that the
building can be erected and all the
plans carried out within the appro-
priation, which, of course, cannot be
exceeded. When satisfied of this we
shall be In a position about April 1
to advertise for bids for the excavation
and construction Of the foundation.
In that event. the bids will be received
by April 20, and the commission can
award the contract in time for the
contractor to begin work on the ex-
cavation by May 1. The commission
deemed it better policy to lump the
work on the excavation and the foun-
dation in order that the contractor
who constructs the foundation may
not find fault with the character of
the excavation"

Combination of Coal Operators to
Control Lake Shipments.

PITTSBURG, March ia combina-
ton of coal operators, who supply the
markets reached by the Great Lakes,
was formed in this city last evening,
to secure some profit out of the millions
of tons of coal which will be sent to the
Northwest during the navigation sea-
son, which opens next month. The
pool includes every lake shipper in the
Pittsburg district, and an effort will
be made to combine with the Ohio
lake shippers and divide the total tom
mage on the basis Of last years ton
mage from the two states. A COM
mittee was appointed to meet the Ohio
shippers at Cleveland, within few
days, at which the Pittsburg operators
will make the proposition to divide the
lake business on the basis of last sea-
sons tonnage. The combination means
considerable to Pittsburg, II 1t Is put
through, as the operators will realize
several million dollars more than they
Gid last year.
