RESPECTFULLY DECLINED
The Bridge Sidewalk Contractors will
not Furnish Minnesota Bond.

City Recorder Brown received a
letter today from the Milwaukee
Bridge and Iron Works, which was
awarded the contract for constructing
the sidewalks along the bridge, "re-
spectfully declining" to furnish a
bond in Minnesota. What action the
council will take at it's meeting to-
morrow night is not known.
A good and sufficient bond was pre-
sented by the company at the
meeting last Saturday night, but
it was executed ia Wisconsin
by Wisconsin parties. City At
torney Pau said to the council that
it would be better to have Mime
sofa bond, as in case of trouble and
suit against the bondsmen, it would
be an expensive matter for the city to
bring the action in Wisconsin court,
owing to tie distance from Mankato.
The counc'l then directed the city re-
corder &c ask the company to furnish
a b Ind in this state.

RECEIVER ASKED FOR.
Dissolution of the New Base Ball
Association

Ten of the members of the new or
second base ball association have
brought an action to bring about the
dissolution of the association. The
plaintiffs ask that w. W. Rutan be APP
pointed receiver, and base their action
on the ground that the object of the or
ganization has been accomplished and
that there is no need for its longer con-
tinuance Each of the seventy-five
members is asked to put up $50, in
order that the liabilities may be liqui
dated. The plaintiffs have goodly
array of legal talent, including Schmitt
& Wilson, w. A. Funk and Pau &
Pfau. The action is brought in the
district court.
1t is understood that many of the
members will claim that they did not
sign for the purpose of becoming mem
bers of the company, but that what
they gave was in the way of a donation,
without mourning any further liability.
The officers of the association are
being held for the debts. They are on
a note for $3.50 for money borrowed to
pay the players salaries Landlord
Zimmerman has bill of about $3.50 for
boarding the players. About $500 is
due on the grounds and equipments,
but there is some question as to
whether the association can be held for
this Unless the members aid in pay
ing the bills, it will fall heavily on the
officers.
