DIR. Stone Waiting for the Action of
the Aldermen.

The resolution Of the assembly instructing
the health commissioner to abate the
nuisance caused by the dumping of slaughter
house refuse on the east bank of the Missis-
sippi river, near Desnoyer park, wA,T If
concurred in by the board of aldermen, en-
able DR.. Stone to put a stop to the practice
at once. without waiting for the municipal
court to decide the question.
There is prosecution pending in the mu-
nicipal court against Hammer & Clancy, the
proprietors of slaughter house in the vicin-
ity Of the Minnesota Transfer. The firm is
charged with violating the health ordinance
in that 1t has not connected it's establishment
with a sewer. It's defense is that some eight
years ago the st. Paul city council consented
to the establishment of the slaughter house
at its present location and authorized the
construction Of chute leading from the top
of the bluff down into the river. The chute
was built about quarter of mile south Of
the Milwaukee Short line bridge.
For few years it worked admirably. Right
back of 1t bubbled big spring. AS soon as
the refuse from the slaughter houses had
been dumped into the mouth of the chute, a
gate which held the waters in check was
raised, and they rushed forth and carried the
refuse down the chute and into the river.
But today the chute is delapidated. 1t is
bursted Moreover, that accommodating
String having sickened of its job, has dried
up. AS a result, the river bank for a dis
tance of $50 feet is strewn with the visera of
beef mutton and pork. Hammer G. Clancy
insist that they enjoy prior rights and can
not be compelled to construct sewer, simply
because people have since seen fit to buy land
and erect buildings in that vicinity. But If
the resolution of the council becomes opera
tive, the health department will put this al
tentative before the slaughter houses:
'tYou will either put in a sewer or close
your establishments

GETS HIS. PROPERTY BACK,
But Judge Willis Gives Him a ROas

But Judge Willis Gives Him a Roast.
Hercules L. Kittson is still the owner Of
the Brunswick property, Judge Willis yester-
day directing finding in favor of the plaintiff
in the suit to compel G. E. Christian and
wife to reconvey to him the property. which
was decided to Christian without consideration
in February, 1895. The claim Of George Benz
& Sons for $4,000, as interveners, was knocked
out. In directing findings in the case Judge
Willis took occasion to roast Christian and
also Kittson. Following are the courts re-
marks:
The testimony disclosed very painful con-
dition of affairs. A profigate individual
surrounded by people who are lending him
money with full knowledge of his profigacy,
and under conditions that directly tend to de-
bauch him, and to render him still further
depraved; and afterwards securing a convey
ance of valuable property from him upon a
grossly inadequate consideration,
The defendant. instead of lending plaintiff
money, should have applied for a guardian
for him and prevented the county from pos
sbly sustaining the plaintiff in pauperism
which will surely come upon this young
man unless he is checked in his career. To
loan money to such q person as that is in
itself reprehensible wrong-something which
should be condemned. From the standpoint
of morality 1t Is wrong. From the standpoint
of law it is wrong.

EIGHT YEARS, TAXES,
And Yet the Road Owes the State
Only S1S6.36.

A unique oversight in the states book
keeping was brought to light yesterday, when
Secretary A. K. Teisberg of the board of
railroad and warehouse commissioners, re-
turned to the state auditor a report of the
gross earnings of the lines of the Duluth
South Shore & Atlantic in Minnesota for
the last eight years. 1t appears that the road
has been running trains into Minnesota for
eight years. but has never before been taxed,
and now the state stands to receive the enor-
nous amount of $186.36
For the roads only business in Minnesota
Is passenger business, and as it's only lines
in Minnesota are from the crossing of the
st. Louis river to the union depot, Minnesota
is only entitled to a small portion of the
earnings. 1t is figured that this line earned
s55.14 during 1888; $6O7 in 1889; 81 ,OS7.2S in
1890; $1,3S1S9 in 1881; 81 1874 in 1892; 81 O46
in 1893; $1,512.60 in 1894, and 81, 1913 in 1896
1t pays one per cent on these amounts for
the first three years and two per cent ON the
remaining five years.

M,CARDY ISN'T SATISFIED.
Wants to Daily With the March Pa,
Roll,

Corporation Attorney Darragh received a
communication from Comptroller McCardy
yesterday, asking for his opinion as to the
salaries to be paid the police for the month
of March. Mr.. McCardy wanted to know
whether the March pay roll should be made
out for the original or the reduced amounts,
tnasmuch as the council has, during the pres
ent month"; passed an ordinance reducing the
salaries. What seemed to bother Mr.. Nc
Cardy was the question whether an ordinance
not passed until April could affect March
salaries.
In response, Mr.. Darragh informed the
comptroller that an ordinance not approved
until April 9, 1896. and not published until
April IA, 1896, could not take effect the 1st
of March preceding or on any other day in
March, 1896. Consequently the police were
entitled to and could recover in the courts
their original salaries for the month Of
March.

COROT AND HIS WORK.
Sprague Smiths Second Topic in the
BarbizOn Course.

The second lecture in the series on "The
Artists of Barbizon," given at the People IS
church last evening, by Charles Sprague
Smith, was not less interesting than the first,
while the illustrations Of Corot's magnificent
paintings made the embellishments of the
lecture by the calcium light not less glorious
than in the previous one. contemporary
of Millet, the subject of last nights lecture
was necessarily woven in somewhat with the
life of Millet, so entertainingly narrated in
the first lecture. Less, perhaps, in the rustic
spirit of his community than Millet, he was
no less truly an artist, nor was he less sensi-
tive to the irresistible artistic atmosphere that
permeated the Fontainebleau forest twenty
five years ago, the then haunt of the masters
of the brush.

Sweeney Against swanI1.

Judge Kelly and a jury are engaged trying
the suit of Michael Sweeney against David
Swank, an action to recover $4,000, claimed to
be due on a railroad contract. The defendant
had a contract for grading ten miles of the
Wadena & Park Rapids branch of the Great
Northern, and the plaintiff took subcontract
from him. For some reason the estimates
were not paid, and Sweeney now sues for the
amount he claims he could have made on the
contract. The defense is that the estimates
were not paid because Sweeney failed to pay
his men, and the money was withheld to guard

FIRST BOAT OF THE YEAR.
The Daisy Arrived Yesterday From
st, Louis

The Daisy may not be very fast or very
beautiful, but at least she enjoys the honor of
being the first boat to come up the river this
season. She did not win her laurels hands
down, either, but by virtue of what speed her
engines are capable of, passed several boats
on her way up from st. Louis. The Daisy is
stern wheel excursion steamer which piled
between here and Minnehaha falls two sea-
sons ago, and she comes to st. Paul to be
overhauled and put into commission for the
same purpose this summer. She had a slow
passage from st. Louis, having left there

added to the delay.

when told that the Daisy was the first to
poke her nose into st. Paul dock this sea-
son.

in $500 Bail
Philadelphia, June 26.--John d. Hart
and Captain Reilly of the Bermuda were
before Judge Butler of the United States
district court this afternoon upon writs
of habeas corpus. Counsel for the de-
Tense obtained the writs for their clients
after the hearing before United States
Commissioner Craig. District Attorney
Beck asked that Reilly be committed,
but that Hart be committed to go on his
own recognizance. This was refused.
The district attorney then asked that
Hart be allowed to go with the under
standing that he would appear at the
final hearing before the commissioner
on July 10. A consultation followed be-
tween the respective attorneys, the out
come of which was that Commissioner
Craig was asked to announce his find
ing, so far as Captain Reilly was con-
cerned and to withhold his decision until
July 10 as regards Mr. Hart
The commissioner stated that his find
ing as to Captain Reilly was that the
defendant should enter $500 bail for his
appearance at Jacksonville. District At
torney Beck applied for warrant of re-
moval to take Reilly to Jacksonville and
the judge directed that the papers be
made out. Captain Reilly started to-
night for Florida in the custody of dep
uty marshal. Counsel for. the defendants
and the district attorney appeared to be
contented with this disposition of the
oaSp
