MORE BIDS WANTED.
Offers Made on the Vnnstrum Stock
Don't Suit the Court.

More bids will be received for. the
Nanstrum stock, the court holding that
those opened yesterday were not as
liberal as should be made and there
being a disposition on h part of Chi
"a firms to max better offers. n
opening of the bids yesterday in Judge
Simpsons court room called together
a large numbe of men, including the
members Of the insolvent firm, their
attorneys, buyers from large whole
sale houses, creditors, their attorneys,
reporters, clerks and deputies. The
ball was set rolling by Henry J.
Fletcher, who, appearing for a creditor,
asked that the acceptance of bids be
postponed for a week or two. He
thought hat other bids were sure to
come which would accrue to the bene-
fit of the creditors.
In his request Freeman P. Lane
cOncurred, presenting the court with
a telegram from, THE Fair" Chicago,
which stated that their buyer would
be present in a day or two to bid on
the stock. S. NJ. Davis, of DaAs 6
Pierce, representing other creditors,
preferred a like request. The court
asked for a report on the bids. which
was read by A. D. Smith. 1t showed
that there was a remarkable unan-
unity among the bidders as to the
value of the stock. Of the three bid

per cent of the inventory value. The st.
Paul firm of Finch, Van Slyck, Young
& Co. presented an exactly equal bid,
while Anton Knoblauch bid 49.1 per
cent. The 81 per cent bid meant $50, 164,
while the sun total of the bids on the
departments separately went that a
few dollars better, aggregating $50, SIG.
I'm view of the fact" said the court,
that there are many Of the creditors
outside of the city and there is a gen.
era disposition on the part of the
creditors to put in bids, I think there
should be an opportunity given to
realize the largest amount possible for
the creditors"
The court was not willing that there
should be IN auction of the assets In
his court room, but he was willing
that there should be bids received by
the assignees in another room, and
after they had been received they
could be reported to him and passed
pom
Accordingly it was arranged that the
bids should be received two weeks from
yesterday at the court house on the
property, bidding to m at 10
a. m. Bids are to be received on
the stock entirely, or the different de-
partments, and on the subdivisions Of
departments. These will be compared
n the best bid takes the plum.

culated there that Prince Henri Of

that Minneapolis should have h next
meeting in 1897. But from that time
the interest in the national association
has died out, says the Commercial
Bulletin. The East and the West have
not been pulling together with any
sort of concert. The association feel
ing has been exhibiting itself in the
formation of state associations, and
not enough interest was left to make
the national association a success. For
some time there has been an effort
made by the Western officers of the
association to get the body together
this year, but the effort has not been
a success. 1t was found that at any
convention held at Minneapolis, Min
nesota, the Dakotas, Wisconsin, IL
linois, Missouri and Iowa would be
well or fairly well represented. But
this would not have beer a national
association, and the Western states
did not care to meet, unless they could
meet with a good representation from
the East.

TEACHERS
Just Recognition Of Merit Regard
less of Sex.

The teachers committee of the board
of education yesterday decided upon
the recommendation of Miss Marion
Shaw, of B room, Central high school,
to take the place resigned by Prof. John
A. Sanford, the Latin teacher who has
gone to Brooklyn as professor of that
language in one of the leading young
ladies' academies. The appointment of
Miss Shaw is in the nature of a pro-
motion, and with it follows the pro-
motion of Miss Emma l.. Trevette,
from the c to the B room, and Miss
Elizabeth c.. Cook from G to c room.
The appointment of Miss Shaw to this
place marks a distinct policy of the
board Of education to fill vacancies by
promotions whenever possible, and to
recognize the right Of women to fill
the highest places upon the same foot
Ing as men. There was a proposition
to appoint a gentleman to succeed Prof.
Sanford, but DR.. Jordan and h COM
mittee on teachers, turned it down.
The other changes recommended by
the committee were: Anna L. DUNCAN,
from annex Marcy to D room, Douglas
school; Nellie Richards, from F room,
Clay, to Winthorp cooking school. The
proposition to appoint Miss Maidee M.
Traver for the East Side high school
was not concurred in by the committee.
Miss Minnie Bacon, of the Webster,
and Miss Mary Ogin, of the Winthrop
schools, have resigned, and Miss Edith
Brant, of the Madison school, was
granted leave of absence for four
months.

HEELS IN A DESPERATE Eff
FORT TO ESCAPE.
MOB JOINS In EXCITING CHASE
Pursuers-NeNs of the Mill
City.

The boldest attempt at daylight rob-
berry in Minneapolis for years occurred
shortly after II o'clock, when two
young men walked into the jewelry
store of Frank c. Worrel, 61112 Nicollet
avenue, and. at the point of a drawn
revolver, ordered him to throw up his
hands. Instead Of obeying, Mr.. Wor-
reIl dropped to the floor and yelled
Justify for help. Surprised at this I'M
expected maneuver, the robbers hast
lily left the store, pursued by a bowling
mob. One was captured, but the other
made his escape.
Mr.. Worrell was alone in the store
at the time, his assistants being at
dinner. The two men, both we'll
dressed, walked in and leaned against
the counter in the rear of the store.
Mr.. Worrell arose from his seat in
front and went back to wait on them.
Il went to buy a watch" said one,
with the evident intention of throwing
the proprietor off his guard. The lat
\ ter glanced at the timepieceS in the
case, and when he looked up again
gazed into the muzzle of a revolver.
The other man stood guard to prevent
Worrell from leaving by the front
door.
Throw up your hands, you ---
-! exclaimed the one with the re-
volver.
For the moment Worrell was paral-
yzed, but the next instant he dropped
to the floor, at the same time emitting
a blood-curdling yell. He then ran
along behind the counter toward the
real on his hands and knees, continu-
ing to shout Justify for the police.
The men were taken completely by
surprise, and, realizing that the game
was up, they too to their heels, rush
ing through the back entrance and
down the alley toward Sixth street,
just as the crowd from Nicollet avenue
began to pour into the store.
Those in advance got a fieeting
glimpse Of the robbers as they left the
store. and at once gave chase. The
men ran south on Sixth street. One
lodged into the first alley at hand
and was lost to view; the other kept
OF and turned up Second avenue
south. He ran into an alley between
Sixth and Seventh streets, and had
continued but a short distance further
when overhauled by William Harthom,
of us Fifteenth street east, and A. A.
George, who lives on Fifth avenue
south.
The prisoner at first said tina he
lived on Washington street, but later
cldllleu Oildld, Nep., as MS nome. lie
broke away once after being caught,
but was recaptured after a short chase
and turned over to Officer George
Johnson at Sixth street and NicolIet
venue. He was taken to the central
police station, where he gave the name
of Charles Evans. He is about twen-
ty-five years of age, wears a brown
suit and hard hat of the same color.
He is of light complexion and has a.
light moustache.
The other man was of medium
height, dressed in black and wore a
light straw hat.
Evans was charged with vagrancy,
but will AVE a more serious charge
to face when arraigned in the mu-
nicipal court. Mr.. Worrell swore out
a complaint against him after having
positively identified him as one of the
robbers.
