A NARROW ESCAPE
A Painter Falls 35 Feet and Is Only
Slightly Hurt

A painter named +. P. Eddo had a mar
row escape from death yesterday.
While working on. the roof of building
al 400 Constance street he lost his foot
ing and fell to the ground, distance of
35 feet At first it was supposed that
he had been fatally injured. He was
picked up in an unconscious condition
and removed to the receiving hospital
where DR.. Hagadorn attended him. On
the way Edo regained consciousness
An examination made by the physician
showed that beyond little shaking up
no injuries worse than a dislocate1
finger had resulted from the fall. Eddo
struck the ground upon his right shou,-
der and. side, and it seems little short of
miraculous that he did not receive worse
injuries.

SOME STARTLING ALLEGATIONS
Serious Charges rlade Against Di
rectOrS of the MadaIia Farmers
Warehouse Co.

W. e. Young has started two suits
against the directors personally of the
Madelia Farmers Warehouse Co.,
now in the hands of receiver. One
is for Geo. T. Rice, who alleges that
he had grain to the value of 81, 300
stored in the warehouse, aud the
other is for Henry Cooling, who
claims to have $500 worth of grain
stored there. These parties ask to
have the directors make good their
losses. They are among numerous
farmers who lost by the failure Of
the company. J.
The allegations in the complaint
charge great rascalty on the part of
the directors. They claim that the
directors dealt in options and thus
lost the grain stored there; that
the directors gave themselves mort
cages on the plant individually, and
gave notes to themselves, which they
negotiated. The plaintiffs ask for
the value Of the wheat deposited.
These suits, together with the ru-
mored indictments, will keep the di-
rectors busy explaining what became
of the property of the company. The
latter went into the hands of B. @.
Taylor, of this city, as receiver, July
10th last, on the petition of Savage &
Purdy, Minneapolis lawyers. 1t is
claimed that there was supposed
to be 1000 or 5000 bushels of
grain stored in the warehouse
by farmers at the time the re-
ceiver was appointed, with nothing
there to show for it. Most of the
farmers had warehouse receipts to
show. 1t is claimed that the direc.
tors foreclosed their own mortgages,
given by themselves to themselves, on
the company's plant. The matter is
to be probed to the bottom. The
stockholders of the company, as well
as the directors, were farmers.

NOT SUBURBAN PROPERTY
j. q. A. Marsh Can Retain Only
One Lot For His Homestead.
Judge Quinn Files An ImpOr
tant Decision i'll Local Case.

] Judge j. Fl. Quinn, Of Wells, today
filed his decision in the suit of Geo.
W. Mead, assignee, VS.. j. @. A.
Marsh and Others to split up the resi-
de nee property of the defendant in
West Mankato for the benefit of Mr..
Marsh's creditors, The plaintiff held
that Mr.. Marsh was entitled to hold
only one city lot as his homestead /;
w lille Mr.. Marsh held that his lot,
W hich occupies 1.65 acres, was I'M
plated and did not come under this
provision of the insolvency law.
Judge Quinn holds that Mr.. Marsh's
residence property is not agricultural
property and that it is surrounded by
land that is plated and built upon on
three sides, and by railroad and
slough that cannot be built upon on
the other side. He holds that it
is urban and not suburban property,
and that Mr.. Marsh is therefore en-
t titled to hold but one city lot, being
the equivalent of &c by 157! feet, to
be selected by him, besides his house.
This decision is expected to realize
about $4,000 more for the creditors,
as there will be several lots for sale.

LISTING UNASSESSEO PROPERTY.

County Auditor Gunders has re-
ceived instructions from State
Auditor Dunn in regard to placing
omitted taxable property upon the
assessment books. Mr.. Dunn quotes
the law on the subject and says that
it is the duty of the county auditor to
place all property omitted upon the
assessment rolls. This applies to both
real and PERSONAL property, and is to
be done as soon as it is discovered. 1t
is to be assessed at figure which
the auditor deems right, and added
to the current years taxes, for the
year or years it has been escaping
| taxation. e
Mr.. GunderS states that he will add
about 100 acres to the list, in Garden
City, Lincoln and Butternut Valley.
These lands are railroad land or lands
omitted from the rolls.

T. II. WILLIAMS BADLY HURT AT
LAST NIGHTS FIRE.
Both Bones of His Left Leg Snapped
by Hose Coupling Which Hit Him
1.-The Engesser Brewing Co. s
Warehouse Damaged by Fire--A
Stubborn Blaze that Kept the Fire
men Busy for Several Hours.

n IRE alarm from DOX 70, dU UHe ClUy
hall, called the department to the
warehouse Of the EGgesser Brewing
Co., of st. Peter, on Walnut street, at
seven O'Clock Tuesday night. The
building is tall, iron-sheeted build
ing, located on the alley between Front
and Second streets, and is used for the
storage of beer. There is large
refrigerator ON the inside, and several
floors, and a great deal of woodwork.
| The office is on the east side, and a
shed or leanto on the rear. The shed
was used for storing various articles,
the door was Unlocked, and people
were accustomed to going into it at
any time. At the hour named, the
interior of this shed was. discovered
to be mass of flames. The iron door
was closed, and no one knew of the
fire until it was under good Roadway
and working up on the interior of the
warehouse. A moment later, flames
burst from the cupalo, as the draft
drew them up.
The fire department. was at work in
very few moments, but scOuld not
reach the flames, as the warehouse
had but one or two openings. At
tempts to drown out the fire by throw
ing streams through the cupalo were
unsuccessful. Several firemen finally
mounted an extension ladder, after
Ed. Schumacher had cut hole in the
roof, and poured stream into the
building, which had more effect. 1t
was an uncomfortable and dangerous
place for those engaged in the work,
as the smoke rolled about them in
great clouds, and the flames were at
work under them, threatening to eat
away their support. A hole was also
cut in the rear.
After an hour Of hard work the fire
was gotten under control, but it took
several hours to eXtinguish it entirely.
The interior Of the building was badly
burned and the repairs will be eXpen-
sive. There was not much beer stored
in the warehouse, and what was there
was saved. A section Of hose burst
during the fire.
The building was constructed by
Adams & Schingle couple of years
ago at a cost of about $1,000. and was
well constructed. The loss will be
about $1,000, Geo. M. Phillips and
Phil Lease had a new canvass boat in
the shed, and this was burned. The
iron sides and roof Of the building
prevented many sparks from flying,
but at the same time prevented the
| firemen from getting at the fire. The
origin of the fire is supposed to be &C.
cidental.
Geo. May discovered the fire and
gave the alarm. 1t was then burning
in the center of the shed, and the
door was six inches open. When he
returned, the fire had spread greatly.
1t is thought that someone went in
and careiessly threw down lighted
cigar stub or match.
The refrigerator contained three
carloads Of sawdust.
