They nominated a county ticket, in
Guiding county commissioners, with a
contest over all, except two, places on
the ticket, and from 10 o'clock In the
morning until after 10 o'clock at night
there was a scene of conflict which
suggested a Donnybrook fair, or New
York beer garden scene more than
usual political gathering. On the whole
the day was pleasantly spent by most
of the delegates. There were few hot
words and an amount of costermonger
shouting on the part of the rooters of
the several candidates which would
have charmed a Sioux Indian on the
war path. E. M. Johnson compared
the scramble, into which the conven-
ton had gravitated, to a New York
beer hall. The chairman wore out two
sticks which had been made to serve
for gavels, and the noise disturbed
the coopers working a block away. The
ticket nominated was as follows:

The Mistake of a House Page Made
Trouble Over Three Bills.

funny thing happened involving three of
the Illinois members, during recent session of
unanimous consent in the house. The diff
Guilty in securing recognition for the attempted
passage Of any bill cannot be exaggerated,
and Mr.. Burrell, of Illinois, had realized this
fact to the full measure of sorrow while try
Ing to secure action on a private bill which
he had in tow for one of his constituents. He
had been to see the speaker a number Of times
beseeching him to let the bill come up and
finally Mr.. Reed yielded and told him to be
on time next morning with his bill in his hand
standing somewhere so that he could catch the
speakers eye.
Mr. Burrell did not neglect the advice tn ha
conspicuously on hand so he stood IN his seat
and at the first available opportunity waved
the bill in the air. The speaker had not for
gotten his promise, and when suitable OPEN
ing came, said THE gentleman from Illinois

A page started frantically up the aisle to get
the bill and bring it to the clerks desk, hut,
seeing Mr.. Connolly standing in his place
holding a bill in his hand and as he came
from the state designated, the page rushed up
to him, took the bill and hurried It to the
desk. The speaker did not in the least relish
this error. as Mr.. Connolly would probably
be one of the last men he would favor with
a recognition, but, making the best of bad
bargain. the measure was allowed to pass.
Mr.. Reed then looked over in the direction
of Mr.. Burrell and again said:

also of Illinois, who had been haunting the
first seat in the middle aisle for more than a

was taken to the desk and read. The speaker
looked considerably annoyed, but persisted in
the original intention of seeing that Mr. Bur
rell was given chance to slip his bill through.
and for the third time said:

This time the page found his way to the
proper person, and Mr.. Burrell's bill was
passed. But several members smiled to them
selves as they reflected on the fact that two
unexpected bills had received attention on the

CALLED TO A HIGHER HOME.
Mrs. Susan Coates Hears the Sum
mons While at Divine Services.

The greatest CONSERVATION prevailed at the
Lake Street M. e. church last evening,
caused by the sudden death of Mrs. Susan S.
Coates during the mid-week services there.
Death was presumably the result of heart
failure, which the deceased, however, never
has had any symptoms of.
Mrs. Coates left for the church in the even
ing, together with her granddaughter, Ger
trude Coates, in, to all appearances, the best
of health. At $50, while the pastor was in
the middle of his sermon, those sitting in
the neighborhood of her saw her, what they
supposed, faint and rushed to her assistance.
She was, however, beyond all aid. Death had
placed its hands over her, and she died with
out any PAIN She was removed to her home
and further services dispensed with.
The deceased was seventy-two years old
and lived with her son and daughter in law
Mr.. and Mrs.W E. Coates, 500 Lake street. She
was a widow her husband having died thirty
years ago, since which time she has lived
with her son. Mr.. Coates is at present not
in the city, and no arrangements will be
made in regard to the funeral until such
time as he can be heard from.

rights of the ST. Anthony Falls Water
Power company, allowing the corpora

The company has been allowed to use
the street on condition that the same

COHEN SHOWED FIGHT.
Attempt to Arrest PawnbrOker
Precipitated a Riot.


The street riot of Sunday night was re-
peated yesterday afternoon when Detective
John p. Hoy undertook to arrest pawn
broker named Cohen at Washington and
Fifth avenues south. A horseman by the
quarters at noon and informed the officer In
charge that Cohen had stolen his horse. He
asked for an officer, and Detective Hoy was
detailed to visit the pawnshop and investi-
gate the case. The latter concluded to take
him to headquarters.
Cohen objected and was accordingly dragged
and jerked along the avenue. Suddenly, as
one of the men who charged him with the
theft was about to pass, Cohen Strengthened
up and hit him blow that knocked him into
the middle OF the street The detective then
grabbed hold Of the prisoner with the remark:
Wei, I'll have to lock you up anyway on a
charge of disorderly conduct"
Then Cohen's brother. Eli. took hand in
the proceedings. He grabbed the officer and
objected violently to the arrest. Hoy prompt
ly knocked him down. and then all of the
pawnbrokers in the neighborhood Joined in
the melee. The detective held his prisoner
and struck out right and left. He knocked
five men off their feet but there were others.
Of1cer and prisoner were soon the center
or a wildly gesticulating crowd, and were
pushed into the middle of the street. The
friends Of the man whom Cohen first at
tackled improved their opportunity to give
Cohen the beating Of his life, although Hoy
cut and bruised. and he was kicked repeat
edly in the body. He lost his head and
started 10 nght his captor. thinking that the
latter was striking him. Hoy had his hands
full, and was about to succumb from ex-
haustion when reinforcements arrived.
When Officer Ferrin and bystander fought
their way through the crowd to Hoy's side
the crowd had increased to 200 people, who
blockaded the street and stopped the cars
The sight of uniformed officer awed the bel
lgerents, and they gave way before the
majesty of the law. The patrol wagon was
called to the scene and both Cohens were
locked up, charged with dsorderly conduct.
A city physician was called, and on his
advice Cohen was taken to the city hospi-
tai. In addition to his bruises 1t is thought
that one of his ribs were broken. Detec-
tive Hoy went to the nearest drug store for
where the buttons were sewed on his coat and
vest.
