Eleven men, constituting the Coal
Trust, have added without cause to
the price of coal for this winter $3.50
per ton. 1t means simply that eleven
have combined to pocket over $50, ,OOO,-

it. The query arises, where are the
officers whose duty it is to enforce the

LEGAL CUSTODY OF9aTHE TWINS.
AFTER A FIGHT IN
COURT,
ALTHOUGH FOR THE PRESENT
the Children in Their
Charge.

Application was made to the probate
court yesterday for the appointment of
a guardian for the young children of
Mr.. and Mrs. Harrison Sayre. who
live in Hamline. Some time ago the
G 0 b e published full account of
the wretched and filthy condition Of
the home and children of this strange
couple
Judge Willrich listened to the testi-
mony of Mrs Chamberlain, home
missionary and Mrs. Swanson. who
furnished graphic descriptions of the
Sayre's home. with all it's dirt and
filth, and the manner in which the
parents have, neglected their twin ba-
bies, aged about three months. C. B.
Smith. a Minneapolis lawyer, testified
that Sayre was a man of exemplary
habits. who neither drank, smoked
nor chewed. Mr., Sayre himself took
the stand and corroborated the fatter-
ing estimate of himself furnished by
Mr.. Smith. Mr. Sayre said that he
was 81 years of age, that he received a
pension of $50 every three months and
that his butchers and grocer's bills
amounted to about $40 a. month
though he made his purchases at diff
ferent stores. Mr.. Sayre's testimony
was given in rambling irrelevant
fashion that raised doubts as to his
mental balance.
Judge Willrich disposed of the case
by appointing Rev. E. P. Savage, the
superintendent of the Children's Home
association, guardian Of the children.
They will be permitted to remain in
the custody of their parents. however.
with the understanding that Mr..
Savage may take charge Of them. If
at any time the parents fail to take
proper care of them
The case in the police court against
Mr.. Sayre, growing out of his failure
to provide for his family, was contin-
ued until Oct. 81

Locked Up Again

AOCECO Up AEuins
Charles Cohen, Frank Smith and
Frank Keliher had a trial before Judge
Twohy yesterday on charge Of visit
ing a disreputable resort Thursday
night. City Attorney Darragh ap-
reared for the prosecution and, dur
ing the progress of the case informed
the court that the police were at fault
in that they constantly arrested both
Cohen and Smith whenever they ap-
peared on the street Judge Twohy
thought the city attorney had been
misinformed as to the habits of the
young men and referred to the num-
Der of times they had been before him
in the court. The fact that they were
picked up by the officers at {" o'clock
in the morning at disreputable re-
sort did not look as though they were
conducting themselves in a very order
ly manner. Cohen and Kelliher were
given thirty days in the workhous
and the case against Smith was con-
tinued to Oct. 20 with the understand
ing that he was to leave the city be-
fore that date or receive a like sen
