THREE JUDGES SIT
HASTINGs-ANOKA CASE GIVEN
MUCH DIGNITY BY THE DIS
TRICT COURT.
COMMISSION WILL STEP IN
AND CLEAR UP ONE PHASE OF THE
INTER-CITY COMPLICA-
TIONS.
kLVAH EASTMAN,S AFFIDAVIT
Presents in Compact Form the Show
ing Made by the Minutes Of the
Commission.
kLVAH EASTMAN'S AFFIDAVIT

Judges Brill Kelly and Otis were
wrestling yesterday with the Hastings
Anoka fight over the location of the
fourth hospital for the insane. The
case is of such Importance and there
are so many corners to it that Judge
Brill desired the assistance Of some of
the other judges in passing upon it,
so he called in Judges Kelly and Otis.
The outcome OF yesterdays proceed
ings in the case was to practically dis
pose of one horn of the dilemma, and
that is as to the right of four of the
commissioners to answer for the whole
commission through an attorney not
employed by the whole commission.
Without passing upon this question,
the court continued the case until next
Saturday, Attorney Richardson, who
appears for the Anoka faction of the
commission, promising to have the
commission settle that question in the
meantime by formal action.
There is q great array of legal talent
in the case. The city of Hastings is
represented by Stringer 6 Seymour
and John NJ Gilman; the Anoka fac
ton of the commission by Harris Rich
ardson; the Hastings faction by E. S.
Durment. 1t is probable that Anoka
also had a legal adviser watching her
interests, but, if so, he took no active
part in the proceedings Attorney
General Childs is also on deck looking
out for the interests of the state
There were several motions before
the court Mr.. Richardson had moved
that the temporary injunction be dis
solved. Mr.. Seymour moved that the
commissioners who favored the Anolla
site be required to show their authority
to answer for the entire commission.
Mr.. Durment moved to strike out this
answer for these reasons. That the act
under which the commission is work
ing does not authorize the hiring of an
attorney; that the commission could
not be sued as a commission in an
action of this kind, for the reason that
1T would be an action OF the state
against the state. Therefore, they
were not sued as a commission, but as
individuals, and as such they should
answer and not as commission.
Only three members of the commission

for Washington, where they will APP
pear before the interior department
the first of the week to argue for
reopening of the famous Section 3O'
case.
The case comes under the recent rul-
ing of the department in regard to
lands that were once swamp, but have
since dried, and, in view of that decis-
ion, the parties interested, as against
the governments claim in the case,
will appeal for a reopening of the
case that testimony may be introduced
to show the character of the land in
question at the time that it was set
aside for the state as swamp land.
The case, which has been given much
notice in the press already, is one in
volving considerable wealth, as the
section i'll question has an underlying
stratum of rich mineral drift, and the
claimants will make a vigorous con-
tention for permanent rights.

COOK COUNTY OFFICER.
John L. Whitman Resting After a
Little Exciting Work.

John L. Whitman jailer of the Cook
county jail, Chicago. came to st. Paul
yesterday to spend few days here
with George Flanders, who is an old
time friend of his. Mr.. Whitman does
not often take holiday, but is resting
from the strain incident to the hang
ing of a negro in the Jail a day or two
ago. which was conducted under his di-
rection. The negro was Harry Foster,
who killed a saloonkeeper named
George Welles last summer.
Mr.. Whitman's position is one of
considera bic Importance, as may be
shown by the fact that he has forty
five deputies. These deputies, just be-
fore the departure of their superior
officer, presented him with beautiful
gold star studded with diamonds and
emera1ds.
Mr. Whitman is accompanied by his
wife

WAITED TOO LONG.
Statute of Limitation Helps the De-
PENDANT in u Suit.

Judge Otis yesterday filed a decision
giving Judgment for the defendant in
the suit of Charles H. Petsch. as guard
ian OF Juliana Petsch. against Ida
Muehlenbruch. the daughter of Juliana
Petsch. The action was for the re-
covery of some $4,000 on a note. The
defendant claimed that the considera-
ton for which the note was given was
really a gift, and that the note was
simply a memorandum. Judge Otis
gives judgment for the defendant on
the ground that the action. had not
been begun within sixty days after the
maturity of the note, and therefore is
barred by the statute of limitations.
The note was a demand note, but pay
ment was not demanded. The court
holds, however, that maturity dates
from the day the note was made.

qualified gentlemen; and, whereas, in an in
