CITY's SUIT TO COLLECT $4,000
FRONTAGE TAX IS REMANDED
FOR TRIAL.
NO SHOW FOR BORGsTRoM.

IsTER OF DEEDS OF ST.
LOUIS COUNTY,
REDUCES A VERDICT A THIRD.
Supreme Court Scales Down Kettle
River Roads Claim Against
the Eastern Minnesota.

The supreme court yesterday re-
manded the suit of Ramsey county and
the city of st. Paul against the Robert
P. Lewis company to the district court
for retrial on the ground that the certif-
icate of the trial court below does not
say whether or not the points raised
in the briefs of the contestants were
presented to the court below.
The case involves the validity Of the
water frontage tax in vogue in this
city, the defendant company having a
large tract fronting on Dale street
between Front and Maryland. 1t
claimed first that the city had no au-
thority to support any assessment at
all against the real estate, for the rea-
son that it is described as vacant and
unoccupied pasture land, and is I'M
plated and described by governmental
subdivisions. In other words, it claims
that it's character does not bring it
within the meaning Of the term lot, as
used in the frontage tax law OF 1888.
A second contention was that the tract,
if assessed at ALL should be assessed
only on its fronts" which, the own
ers claimed, were on Front and Mary
land streets respectively, or about l.
900 feet in all as against half a mile On
Dale street. A third defense was that
the main to be laid on Dale street was
a conduit for general supply and that
the abutting property was denied per-
mission to attach a service pipe. IL
was also contended that the frontage
tax was computed on a different basis
than taxes against other property In
the city, and that the fact that the land
is not benefited by the main makes
the assessment a violation of the fifth
amendment of the federal constitution
providing that private property shall
not be taken for public use without
just compensation.

Fight Pulled Of In the Heart of the
City.

There are still number Of very warm
Sports in st. Paul and two score OF them
met by appointment last evening IN room
in the business part Of the city to witness
a boxing bout. 1t was given out that the con-
testants were anxious to kill each other ana
that the affair would certainly be a knock
out" If there is any one thing more than
another that the sports like, is is a boxing
bout where there is plenty of speed. The good
thing having been properly whispered around,
there was quite a crowd, and each man was
ready to put up to see the mill. Some OF the
very warmest of the crowd paid Sc, but others
who by reason OF numerous throw downs
in the past, declined to pay more than 81
for the privilege of witnessing the bout. Inc
management, however, did not let any one
escape and took from each what they could
get. ..,,-oo.,..,
The contestants were known as "Frenchy
and ''Dutchy." and both weighed in at about
the same avordupois. Time was called, and

winner of the fight and purse. Then there
was howl. The fight had been too snort LOT

NO REHEARING FOR PETER.
BorgstrOm Gets Cold Comfort From
the Supreme Court.

Peter ]. Borgstrom, register of deeds
of ST. Louis county, may eat his
THANKSGIVING dinner in the state prison
at Saltwater. The supreme court yes
terday denied him rehear1ng, ana as
his appeal was dismissed recently, 1T is
not apparent that he has any further
recourse.
Another case of considerable interest
in the northeastern part of the state
was that of Senator Fred A. Hodge, of
Pine county, as receiver of the old Ket-
tie River railroad, against the Eastern
Railway company of Minnesota
claim for the value Of certain rails ana
materials used in the construction or
the Kettle River road, which, 1t IS
claimed the Eastern appropriated to
it's own use.
In the lower court Hodge secured a
verdict for $4,000, this being the val
ue placed upon the property by wit
ness named Grant. Another witness
named Fuller placed the value of the
material at $S,153, and this. with the
interest added, would bring the total
UP to $10,957 The supreme court holds
that inasmucn as Fuller was broker,
we'll versed in the value of old rails
and material, while Grant knew only
the value of rails when they were new.
the verdict should have been brought in
in accordance with Fuller's testimony
rather than that of Grant, and unless
the plaintiff files an acceptance of

be ordered.

JURY TO TRY THORN.
PnneI Completed md the linking of
Testimony Begun.


NEW YORK, Nov l23.-The second
trial of Martin Thorn for the murder
of William Guldensuppe was fairly
started this afternoon in the Queens
county court. The lawyers for the
prosecution and defense diligently en-
deavored to secure a jury as quickly
as possible, and, when an adjournment
was taken yesterday evening, seven
Jurors had been sworn. An additional
panel of fifty was made up yesterday,
and from these and the remainder 90
the first special panel of talesmen the
other five jurors were selected before
/ o'clock today. AS soon as the jury
was completed, an adjournment for
luncheon was ordered by the court,
after which District Attorney Youngs
opened the case for the prosecution.
AS soon as he had finished. the taking
Of evidence was begun.
Tomorrow the coroner's jury and his
deputy will be called to the stand,
and it is quite probabl that Gotha,
Clark and others, who say that Thorn
made confessions to them. may also
be examined. Mrs. Mack may also be
called, but a reporter asked the dis
trict attorney this evening whether
there was any significance in the fact
that he had not spoken of Mrs. Mack
as a witness in his opening address,
and if she would or would not pc a
witness during the second trial, Mr..
Youngs replied: 81 cannot answer
those questions at this stage"
The lawyers for the defense, how
ever. are quite positive that the wom-
an will be witness, and they are
prepared to make it very warm for
her during her cross-eXamlnatlon:
That they will put Thorn on the stand
to refute Mrs. Nack's testimony and
swear that it was she who committed
the murder, is now beyond all doubt.
Mr. Howe's questions to the talesmer
when they were examined showed the
line of defense he meant to adopt. In
addition to Thorns testimony, it is
said on good authority the defense
will produce witnesses who will accuse
Mrs. Mack of having committed seri-
Gus offenses, the nature of which will
not be disclosed by Thorn's counsel
until it is made public property in evil
dence

HEART DISEASE.
SOME FACTS REGARDING THE
RAPID INCREASE OF HEART
TROUBLES.
Do Not Re Alarmed, But Look for
the Cause.

Heart troubles. at least among
Americans. are certainly increasing
and while this may be largely due to
the excitement and worry of American
business life, it is more often the re-
suit of weak stomachs, Of poor diges-
ton.
Real, organic heart disease is incur
able; but not one case in a hundred
of heart trouble, is organic
The close relation between heart
trouble and poor digestion is because
both organs are controlled by branches
of the same great nerves, the Sym
pathetic and Pneumogastric.
In another way, also, the heart is
affected by that form. of poor digestion,
which causes gas and fermentation
from half digested food? there is a feel
ing of oppression and heaviness in the
chest caused by pressure of the dis
tended stomach on the heart and lungs,
interfering with their action: hence
arises palpitation and short breath.
Poor digestion also poisons the blood,
makes it thin and .watery which irri-
tates and weakens the heart.
The most sensible treatment for heart
troubles is to improve the digestion
and to insure the prompt assimilation
of food. e5sL
This can best be done by the regular
use after meals. of seme safe, pleasant
and effective digestive preparation, like
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, which may
be found at most drug stores and
which contain valuable, harmless d.
gestive elements, in a pleasant, con-
venient form. 2V5
It is safe to say that the regular, per
sistent use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets at meal time will cure any form
of stomach trouble, except cancer OF
stomach.

HE WENT roe FAR.
Pipestone County Justice Exceeded
His Authority.

The supreme court, in decision yes
terday, reversed the district court Of
Pipestone county and holds that a JUS
tice of the peace has no authority to
admit to bail defendant charged with
a crime for which Che penalty is over
seven years in states prison.
The decision was lin the case of the
State VS.. A. A. Bartlett. of Pipestone,
charged with rape. Bartlett was
brought before a justice of the peace
and was released on bail, pending an
adjournment of the hearing. He fled,
and the state sued to: recover from his
bondsmen. The state conceded the
point that if the justice had no author
ity to admit the defendant to bail, the
bcndsmen could not be held liable, and
the district court held that the justice
Of the peace had such authority. This
decision the supreme court reverses as
follows:

the receivers were obliged to pay commits
sions amounting to 500 900. The certificates
were issued under an order of Judge Jen-
kins entered on Nov. Is. 1894. The series was
to consist of 1000 certificates Of the value OF
81, COO each, with interest at per cent, pay
able semi annually, and maturing on Nov 10,
1885, When the certificates matured last year,
however, the receivers were unable to meet
the payment and succeeded in securing an ex-
tension for one year, upon the payment OF
commissions to large amount. In the pc
tition for further extension. upon which the
present order was granted, the receivers say
that they have no money on hand with which
to pay any or all of the principal amount, and
that the estate would suffer serious detriment

EASTERN FLOUR RATES.
Freight Men Meet Today to Talk
Them Over.

The traffic officials of the local lines inter
ested in the fiour-carrying trade left for chi,
cago last night, for the meeting which Will
be held this afternoon in that city, when the
flour rates from st. Paul and Minneapolis TO
the Eastern seaboard will be considered 1t
is quite evident from the expression OF their
views on the situation that the freight men
are dubious about being able to jump from
the lake and rail rate of 221a cents to the
published all-rail tariff at S21s cents. The
contention has been made that the ail-rall
rate has been shaded to such an extent that
some of the lake lines, during the past-month,
have been complaining of lake tonnage 1t
is confidently expected that the rate, in
stead of being lifted to 321a cents, will be put
up to 80 cents, and strong effort made TO
hold it there There is quiet talk that ma
jority of the freight men vii go into the meet
ing possessed of the idea that the only way
to keep the figures up will be the formation
of a pool as before. Just how much publicity
will be given this, or just how far the scneme
will carry remains to be seen: The meeting
is scheduled for the Office of the general
freight agent of the Milwaukee road in Chi
