FOR THE GOLD STANDARD.
Coal Prices Are Also Considered by
the Chamber.

The chamber Of commerce yesterday
issued it's dfctum ON the banking ques-
ton as follows:
Resolved, That the gold money standard
should be steadfastly kept in this country.
The government should retire from every
form of banking business, whenever other
agencies sufficient for the functions of that
class have performed by the government can
be organized and gotten into successful oper-
alton.
Changes in the money system should be
effected gradually, and by modes that will
avoid contraction of the volume, impair
ment of the quality of the currency as
feature of an improved money system, the
national banks should be retained, and their
usefulness extended by allowing the estab-
lishment of branches and by reduction Of the
required minimum of capital to $25, 060 or less
in small communities.
The new ceal investigation commit
tee reported that the town was at the
mercy of an Illegal coal combination,
that the local price should be about
S725. The recommendations were as
follows:
Resolved That we do hereby recommend
that the railroad and warehouse commission.
upon complaint being filed, will make in
vestigation touching the character of the
tariffs or rates Of transportation Of coal from
Resolved. That we recommend that special
effort be made to secure the erection of coal
storage docks in St. Paul Of sufficient capac-
ity for the storage Of one seasons supply of
fuel.
Resolved, That we do hereby recommend
that the cities OF ST. Paul and Minneapolis
construct freight airline to Duluth
Cola Clough in reply said that the
roads which were mainly devoted to
the transportation of coal were in a
condition Of chronic insolvency. Three
or four roads control the coal business
and are insolvent, because there has
been an overproduction Of coal for the
consumption demanded, and the cost
Of consumption and distribution has
not been met. There are three roads
from the head Of the lake, all of them
engaged in hauling coal. These roads
are from 165 to 10 miles long, and
haul about two million tons of coal
year, including both kinds of coal.
Only a small part of the coal hauled
by the Great Northern and the North
ern Pacific comes to st. Paul; the
amount coming here for consumption
is very small. The rate on coal for st.

Horse Runs Away With ~ Delivery
Wagon.

A serious runaway accident occurred
on Mississippi street yesterday morn
ing, when horse attached to a Great
Northern express wagon became I'M
manageable and dashed down the
street. Three persons were in the
wagon at the time, and when a collision
occurred with a lamp post they were
thrown to the pavement. Eugene Hill,
the driver, residing at 489 Marshall
avenue, was bruised about the BODY
and sustained a severe confusion of
the left hip, which necessitated the
services of physician after he had
been removed to his home. F. H. Gar
land, an agent Of the express company,
struck the curbstone in falling and
was badly cut about the. face and
head, in addition to suffering painful
though not dangerous bodily injuries
Mr. Garland was removed to his home,
376 North st. Adams street, in a car
riage. John Strass, a barn man, es-
capped with injuries more slight than
his companions, and received only a
few minor bruises and general shak-
ing up. The animal responsible for the
accident, was new horse, and was
being tried for the first time.

Paul was $3.50, s or mills ton a

He knew the report was absurd and
demanded of the committee their au-
thority for the statement that an air
line railroad could be built to Duluth
at cost of $3,0Oos0O0.
Gen. Becker, member Of the railroad.
commission, was referred to as au-
thority. k
Col Clough Insisted that the route
to Duluth is one pf the most difficult
and expensive on account Of the topo-
graphy Of the country and the nature
of the SOIL as
Capt. Castle said the similarity Of
bills showed a combination and the
fact that a discount Of so cents is al
lowed, that the agreement is not lived
up to. He wanted Col. Clough to ex-
plain why the railroads charged $1.5O
a ton for hard coal when they charged
Is. cents ton for soft coal.
Col. Clough explained that certain
lines of railroad, with the idea of stiTnu-
lating business which had no existence
in fact, roads running from the nit
nois coal fields, had fixed that rate for
hauling soft or bituminous coal. 1t
was not compensatory rate and would
bankrupt them if persisted in. A little
of this coal was brought to the head Of
the lakes, and the ST. Paul-Duluth
roads brought tito st. Paul at the
same rate, since they could, under the
circumstances, do no better.
Maj. Espy defended the report. AS
to the matter of rates charged by the
railroads, the head of the lakes rate
to st. Paul was so cents high. Col.
.Clough had cited the rates charged by
other roads, The rate from Scranton
to Buffalo was mills per ton per mile,
and on the Reading road the rate was
5 mills ton a mile to Buffalo AS to

1t will be observed by reference to
the foregoing table that the confer
ence committee has increased the comp
trcller's estimate to the extent of $34,-
$50 The increase is found in the eIev-
enth, twelfth, fifteenth and nineteenth
items, the last named having been
raised from $4,000 to $42, 500. Of the
$32,50O increase in the bridge repair
fund, $17,500 is to be refunded in the
building of the new Raymond avenue
bridge, while the bridge repair fund
was raised from $4,000 to $25, 900.
The committee increased the allow
ance for the health department from
$3.50 to $3.50, added $3.50 to the APP
preparation for the engineering depart
ment, and allowed the building inspec
tors department an additional $500 to
make up a deficiency of that amount
in this years fund.
Prior to the adoption of the budget,
the committee adopted the various
items showing the disbursements made
from the general fund. The only
change effected was that decided upon
last week when the committee set aside
the sum of $7,770 to pay for proposed
Gaultier street sewer, and deducted
that amount from the item, miSceliane-

The only sub-item under the general
fund that provoked any discussion
Was IuaC OF SZV,UUU Tor the garbage
fund.
Aid. Bigelow thought that provision
ought to be made for the city's en-
ploying an inspector to look after the
collection of garbage and see that
work is performed according to the
terms of the contract. Aid. Bigelow
accordingly moved that the sub-item
read garbage fund and inspection Of
collection
Mr.. Bement seconded the motion.
Comptroller MeCardy did not approve
of the amendment.
Mayor Dorian said that the fund
ought to be large enough to enable
the city to secure a contract that it
could enforce without inhicting any
injuctice upon the contractor.
Aid Bigelow's motion prevailed,
Comptroller McCardy alone voting in
the negative.

that no doubt the reason Jesus warned

that the men are known by their outer

and that the seamless garments ara

that the women in the country towns

COAL PRICES CUT.
Dealers Are Selling Quietly at $3.50
Per Ton.

None of the retail coal men will off,
cially confirm the fact, but it is known,
however that hard coal is being sold
to consumers as low as $3.50 per ton,
in lots of Is or more tons. The drop
from $7.85 is said to have taken place
yesterday, although If any one asked
the retailers, the answer would prob
ably be that coal was still selling for
