OLD LOCK GAME.
Cheap "Con" Men Try 1t on a Mime
apOIitan.

Two strangers attempted to work con-
fidence game on Peter Wagner, a Mime
apoltan, on Wabasha street yesterday after
noon, and now locked up at the police station
are James Carlton and Patrick Reilly. Carl
ton claims to be an electrician, and Reilly
said he was railroad man. The men tried
to fleece Wagner on the old "lock'' game.
Wagner was standing at the corner of Ninth
and Wabasha streets waiting for an Inter-
urban car to Minneapolis. A man, said to be
Carlton, approached him, and asking the time
Of day, fell into conversation with Wagner.
He said he was going to Minneapolis also
but wanted to take walk up to the capitol
and see new cannon which had been placed
on the lawn. Would Wagner accompany him?
If so, the two could then enjoy each others
society on the way to the Flour City,
Wagner was delighted and the two started
up the street. At the corner of Exchange
street Wagner's companion pretended to find
something on the side walk. Of course it
was strange looking brass lock. He showed
it to his companion, and together they soon
discovered its mechanism and could open
and shut it at will.
At this stage of the game the second man
came in to the play. He walked up to the
pair and asked the way to the depot. Seeing
the lock, he wanted to examine it. The rest
appeared to be easy. The newcomer wanted
to bet he could open it, and Wagner's com
panion declared he could not. He only had
check, however, and asked Wagner to put
up S25 as it was sure thing.
Wagner refused to bite, and leaving the
men reported the affair to Officer McEllis-
from. The prisoners were located in .Thei-
sons saloon at Ninth and Exchange streets
and will be arraigned in the police court to-
day.

OPPOSE DETRoITys BRIDGE.
Commercial Club Memorial Has
Been Drawn Up.

Commercial Club Memorial Has
Been Drawn Up.
President E. Vanish and Durment. of the
Commercial club, have drawn up a memorial
protesting against the building Of the pro-
posed Michigan Central bridge at Detroit 1t
will be sent to Minnesotas senators and
congressman, and says:
Such bridge would be a great injury to
the interests of Minnesota and the North
vest generally, inasmuch as it would not
only be serious obstruction to navigation
but would otherwise injure the citizens and
interests of the state of Minnesota, and that
permission to build such bridge should be de-
nied for the following reasons:
The purpose of the bridge is to accommo-
date single railroad, and it does not ap-
pear that there has been any such increase
in the business of that road in the last few
years as makes necessary any new method
Of taking care of its traffic. 1t has been able
to accommodate it's business heretofore with
out such bridge. If increased facilities are
needed they can be obtained by constructing
tunnel at no greater expense than the cost
OF the proposed bridge.
1t Is contrary to public policy to permit
this obstruction, which would be the first OBJ
struction of any through lake channel.
This road has made several efforts to obtain
permission to build such bridge, and in each
instance, prior to the present, the matter
has been adversely reported upon by expert
engineers because of it's unfair obstruction
to lake navigation. Lake traffic and the
amount invested in such business have very
much increased since, and the conditions are
very much less favorable for building such
bridge now.
ut would largely delay the transportation
of freight, and increase the cost of transport
ing freight to and from Minnesota and the
Northwest, and lay heavy tax upon the
greater volume of freight now transported
over the lakes at a cheap rate, to favor rail-
roads, which transport a much smaller vol
ume of freight, at higher rates. The inevi-
table effect and the probable purpose, of the
bridge will be to divert traffic from the lakes
to- the railroads, and to build up the city Of
Detroit at the expense of Minnesota and Wis
consin lake ports"
The memorial closes with the resolution
recently passed by the club. similar in tenor.

Wisconsin Insurance Assessments
Go to Fire Companies.

Wisconsin Insurance Assessments
Go to Fire Companies.
Attorney General Childs yesterday rendered
an opinion which is of much interest to all
the communities IN the state which main
tain municipal fire departments. 1t relates
to the retaliatory tax of per cent which is
placed by this state upon Wisconsin insur-
ance companies, that state imposing SINH
lar tax on foreign companies. The insur-
ance commissioner asked what should be
done with the money collected, and the at
torney general replies as follows:
It is the purpose OF the above named sec
ton to exact from nonresident insurance
companies the same requirements which are
exacted from companies of this state doing
business in their respective states. By the
laws of Wisconsin, Insurance companies are
required to pay certain percentage upon the
business done in the several municipalities in
the state to such municipalities for the sup
port of fire departments. This eXaction is en-
forced by Wisconsin authorities against Min
nesota companies doing business in that
state. In obedience to our retaliatory law,
Wisconsin companies should therefore pay
to the municipalities of this state in which
they are doing business an equivalent tax
and as 1 understand your communication,
they have heretofore complied with the re-
quirement.
Sections 912e to 1920 have no bearing upon
the question, as they have reference merely
to the disposition Of the tax paid pursuant
to section 1892
While you have assumed to act as the
mutual agent of insurance companies and
municipalities in the collection of such
moneys, it is very questionable whether you
are required by virtue of your Office to as
sumo such a duty. Be that as it may, the
moneys thus collected belong to, and should
be distributed among, the several municipal
tiles Of this state in which fire departments
have been maintained during the time of the
collection thereof, for the use of such fire de-
partments.
would therefore suggest that you pay
such moneys over to the treasurers of the
municipalities of the state entitled thereto
for the use and benefit Of such departments.

REORGANIZATION PROGRESSING.
N. p. Affairs Moving On to a Satisfac-
tory Conclusion.

Judge w. E. Cullen, division counsel for the
Northern Pacific road, with headquarters at
Helena, spent yesterday in st. Paul, on his
way home from New York and Washington,
where he has been attending to several private
law cases. While in the metropolis Judge Cul-
len met and talked to some of the Northern Pa
cific stock and bondholders, from whom he
gathered the information that the reorganiza-
tion proceedings were moving on to satis-
factory conclusion with considerable smooth
ness. He says that about three-fourths of the
bonded Indebtedness of the road has been paid
in, and that the prediction made in these col
umns some weeks ago, that midsummer would
see the road taken out of the receivers hands
is quite likely to be borne out. According to
the judge, there has been no little discussion
as to the probable policy to be adopted in the
management of the reorganized road, but this,
he says, must be largely matter Of conjec-
ture. Judge Cullen expressed no little regret
at his inability to remain here to see his broth
er, o. o. Cullen, elected mayor Of ST. Paul
He left for Helena last night on the Northern
Pacific train.

G. A. r.. CANVASS.
1t Is Progressing Favorably and
Promises Well.

Secretary Summers, of the G. A. R. finance
committee, has now forty-nine solicitors at
work. Seven were added yesterday morning,
and the number will be increased from time to
time. The solicitors have been selected with
great care, and are performing most COM
mendable service. Their success has been in
creased by the encouraging reception they
have met from influential and wealthy citi-
zens. The solicitors find everywhere the con-
viction, based on past records and on COM
mercial reasoning, that he encampment is sure
to prove not an advertisement Of unusual
value, but means Of enriching this city with
many additional residents Of the best class,
not to mention the large sum of money that
will suddenly be placed in local circulation.
The respective conference committees Of the
state agricultural society and of the G. A. r.
encampment were in joint session yester-
day afternoon at the G. A. R. headquar-
ters discussing matters of mutual interest in
the conduct Of the encampment and the state
fair. No practical decisions can be reached
by these committees, but several questions
were made clearer for the benefit of both
organizations.

his lips and started to smoke his life away.
1t set his nerves on fire, and gradually under

ago, he died, raving maniac.
His sister smoked cigarettes before he died.

PAVING BIDS OPENED.
No One Contractor Seems to Have a
MOnOpOIy.

The board of public works received yes
terday the bids for paving the two blocks on
Tenth street, between st. Peter and Cedar
street. There were three bids submitted for
paving with asphalt the block extending from
Wabasha to st. Peter street the bidders being
Hennessy & Cox the Warren-Scharf Asphalt
company and E. NJ. Ayers The bid of Hen
messy &c Cox was the lowest. 1t amounts to
$3,47S.44, which is apportioned between the
property owners share and the street rail-
way part, as follows: For paving that por-
tion of the street outside the tracks, 81 S32 ga
and for paving the street railways portion
81, 645.S0. Reduced to the yard basis, the bid
is equivalent to $2.45 per square yard, which
compared with last years figures is fairly
cheap, as the asphalt contractors always
raise the bid from 15 to 20 per cent when
asked to pave street occupied by street car
tracks, more work being required to per-
form the Job. The board will recommend
that the contract be awarded to Hennessy &
Cox.
There were also tree bids received for paw
ing Tenth street with Cedar blocks, between
Wabasha and Cedar streets. The board rec
commended that the contract be awarded to
Thomas Reilly, whose bid of $1,3S6 was the
lowest.
