HIS FOLLOWERS CONFIDENT Co.
HIS ELECTION AS STATE G. A.
II. COMMANDER.
DEPARTMENT is INCREASING.
ENCAMPMENT BY FAR THE LARG-
EST EVER HELD IN THE
STATE.
LADIES OF THE RELIEF CORPS
Also Hold SessiOns-PrOceedin of
the First Day of the Con-
VentfOn.

Minneapolis Is now entertaining the
sixteenth annual state encampment of
the department of Minnesota, and the
veterans have taken possession of the
city in such numbers and such ard Or
that one cannot but see that they are
taking more interest every year in
these encampments, perhaps realizing
that for many of them there will be
few more that they can attend. The
reports show that the Minnesota de-
partment has actually increased in
membership during the year, in the
face Of deaths and suspensions.
Though the ranks are rapidly being
depleted, the attendance at the en-
campments grow larger year by year,
and the present encampment at Har-
monia hall is the greatest encamp-
ment that the comrades of Minnesota
have ever held. The presence of COM
mander-in-chief Walker may have
something to do with the attendance
and the fact that the delegates are
trying their hands at politics a little,
and planning to elect their favored
man commander may also have had
its effect on the large attendance.
The business of the morning was not
all done in the session of the conven-
ton. The fight for the office Of de-
partment commander is close, but St.
Paul hustlers and McCardy men are
jubilant. The condition IN which the
Mullen men find themselves is best
shown by their action yesterday in the
convention They admitted that in
roads had been made on their strength,
and in line with that admission secured
the passage Of a resolution in the con-
vention yesterday morning setting the
election for 10 o'clock this morning
This the McCardy men say is the best
indication which can be given of the
way the contest is going. The st. Paul
people make the point that it was I'M
derstood that when McCardy was elect
ed senior vice commander a year ago
it was also understood that he should
be made department commander this
year if st. Paul secured the national
encampment. This st. Paul has done,
and in justice it is now asked that Nc
Cardy be given the place. McCardy's
friends say that the fight Is not bit
ter one, and that there is no element
of personal feeling entering into it.
The G. A. r. encampment proper will
come to a close this afternoon, but all
of the visitors will remain to the grand
campfire at the exposition building this
evening, which will be the event of the
week. Able committees have had the
matter in charge and the arrangements
for grand meeting seem to be COM
plete. The list of speakers includes
Commander-in-Chief Walker, Gen. e.
G. Mason, President Cyrus Northrop
and the new department commander.
The Third United States Infantry band
will furnish music.

CHIMES WE'RE HEARD.
First Official Test of the New Court
House Bells.

The first official trial of the court house
chimes was given yesterday afternoon for the
special benefit of Thomas G. Hough, the local
photographer, and the bells will now go on
record, and in a short time be able to be heard
in the principal cities throughout the United
States. To hear these bells in distant places
will be of special interest to many, as 1t is the
largest chime Of bells in the world, weigh
ing 10000 pounds, and costing 100000 The
chime was operated by Chester Meneely The
first piece of music recorded was "Old Folks
at Home" The first trial was not successful,
the instrument was not placed in a favorable
position, the reproduction being too loud but
this was soon remedied, and the recording
made perfect. The other numbers rendered
Were BLUE Bells Of Scotland, America"
Change Melody" and Home, Sweet Home
The bells are in the key of BIB. One of the
bells is Alb, thereby making it possible to play
in two different keys. Mr. Meneely is proud Of
his work and very much satisfied with the test
given. He says he has never seen tower
built so favorable for chimes as that of our
court house.

AGAIN IN HAVANA.
WeyIer Now Has No Excuse fO
Changing Headquarters.

HAVANA, March 11.-Antonio Maceo is once
more in Havana province. Yesterday it was
announced that Gen. Weyler would shortly re-
move his headquarters from Havana to Ma
tanzas, in order the more conveniently to
direct the operations against the insurgents
who had retreated into Santa Clara. Meantime
Maceo and his followers, including Bandera
and Lacret, seem to have turned upon their
road got through the line of troops like small
fish through the meshes of seine and made
their way across the entire province of Ma
tanzas
Before he encountered a force of troops to
oppose him, he was at Neuva Pasa, fairly
across the MatanZas border, and in Havana
province again. Here he met the battalion of
Almanac, with whom he had brush, leav-
ing seven killed and, proceeded on his way
Maxine Gomez has not accompanied the
present countermarch, according to the report
received here but is lowering around the bor-
ders of the Cienaga swamp, practically mac
cessble to Spanish troops. In the recent at
tack made by the insurgents on Sagua Tanamo
the president of the Cuban government, the
Marquis of Santa Lucia, fell from his horse
and was seriously hurt. He is seventy-six
years of age.

taking them to the house of an acquaintance
living near, made away with three of them,
and burned the kegs. The officers found the

TWO s. ANDsL. CASES.
Judge Belden Takes Testimony Re-
garding Reeeivership.

The petition brought by Smith, Pulliam G
Smith, for the purpose of removing James H
Bishop as assignee of the Peoples Savings
and Loan association was partially heard be-
fore Judge Belden yesterday and continued
until today. Byron Sutherland asked that
the petition be denied for the reason that
there were action already pending which COW
cred the entire prayer of the petition. The
papers were all read yesterday and the ar
guments commenced. w. E. Hale starred
the arguments, and they will be closed some
time today. The matter will be submitted
largely on briefs. The main point is as to
whether the state has right under the law
to maintain the action.
The hearing in the resistance of the as
ISOLATION to the receivership forced upon the
American Savings and Lean association by
the state of Minnesota, came on before Judge
Belden, with Capt. Hart appearing for he
defense, which is seeking to depose Mai
Hale as receiver for the state.
The entire morning was spent in the resd-
ing of the very voluminous documents, in
which Capt. Hart tried to show that the as
ISOLATION is not insolvent, and that it did
business wholly upon the letter of the law
The receiver, however, is going right along
with his labors of closing up the concern
under orders Of the court, and the contest
of the former managers does not hinder Il
in the least.
