GLOBE BULLETINS A HIT.
Large Crowd Watched Them Until

midnight the canvas on which the

tin service OF the elections in New
York and other states, including not
only the Associated Press information,
but a large number of special dis
patches from centers of excitement in
the various states where contests were
being waged, was surrounded by an
eager throng of curious citizens, who
greeted each new report of Demo-
cratic success with signs of approval
or disaDproval, as the case might
strike them. 1t was the only bulletin
service given in the city which gave
the crowd a chance to see all in COM
fort, and the enthusiasm which was
evoked as the gradually fattening bull

Of the Democratic sweep showed that
the enterprise of the G o was fully
appreciated by its constituency.
Some diversion was caused during
the early part of the evening by the
interpretations of views. and bits of
local comment on the impending battle
but from the time the reports from the
East began to arrive the watchers of
the G 10 b canvass were given every

than it was known anywhere else on

NEITHER WAS HOT,
For the Fight Occurred in Re
frigeratOr.

Christian Rieger, the proprietor of a
butcher shop at Rice and Atwater
streets, was a prisoner in the police
court yesterday upon the charge Of
assault and battery. The complainant
in the case is Meat Inspector Jansen,
who alleges that Rieger attacked him
Saturday during the inspection of
meats at the butcher shop. Jansen
claims that early in the day he con-
demned piece of meat in Rieger's pos
session and later learned that there
was more of the diseased animal at the
shop. He found a quarter Of beef.
which was condemned and ordered de-
strOyed. This, Jansen claims, Rieger
refused to do and took the carcass into
a refrigerator Jansen followed and
says as the door to the ice box closed
Rieger grabbed him by the throat.
There was short struggle in the dark,
when Jansen threw the butcher against
the door and escaped from the refriger-
ator. Then, it is alleged, Rieger made
alarming demonstrations with a butch
er knife. The case will be tried tomor-
row, Rieger in the meantime being
released on 500 bail.

BAHE TELLS HIS SIDE.
Files His Answers in the Kane
Lotus Suits.

Lieut.. Henry Babe, of the police
force, filed his answers yesterday in the
damage suits for alleged false arrest
and assault brought against him by
John Fl. Kane and George S. Lotus.
The plaintiffs were arrested at Sixth
and Robert streets the night of Sept.
10, during state fair week. when the
carnival was in progress. They were
charged with attempting to pick a
Woman's pocket, were arrested by
Lieut. Babe and officer McEllistrom,
lodged in the central station and bailed
out. The next morning Lieut.. Babe
withdrew the charge against both gen.
tlemen and both were at once discharg-
ed. Mr.. Kane, in his suit not only
sets up the false arrest, but accuses
Lieut.. Babe of assaulting him with
out cause, by striking him in the face
with his cane.
Lieut.. Babe, in answer to the COM
plant of Mr.. Kane, denies that he as
saulted the plaintiff. After the arrest,
Lieut. Babe declares that Mr.. Kane
resisted and tried to strike him, where
upon the lieutenant says he raised his
cane UP against Kane's lower jaw and
tapped him lightly with it, and eau
tened him not to resist arrest.
In answer to the charge of false ar
rest, Lieut.. Babe says that a couple
Of women complained to him that they
were being indecently molested on the
street by two men who were feeling
about their clothes. The lieutenant
further alleges In his answer that he

NO LINES OF CREED

II. Lord GOdspeed.

Rev. William R. Lord, of Unity
church, bade farewell last night to his
congregation. The farewell reception
took place in the church parlors. It
was noticeable that the occasion was
not only attended by the members of
Unity church. but that number Of
citizens from the Twin Cities were
present to say good bye to Rev. Mr.,
Lord, who are not members of the
church. Among them were Mayor
Doran and several clergymen, includ-
ing Rev. DR.. E. P. Ingersoll and Rev.
Samuel C. Smith. Merriam Park was
we'll represented
The reception concluded with a COLA
ton. There was no formal programme
of speeches. Rev. Mr.. Lord, in response
to an urgent request for a few words,
made most appropriate response. He
expressed his regret at separating from
the congenial surroundings that had
rendered his pastorate in st. Paul
something to be remembered as a
pleasing portion of his life. While his
departure meant a separation from the
bodily presence of his friends, he knew
that he still carried them with him In
his heart, and that they were sensible
Of the same communion with him.

LADIES CALL ON THE MAYOR.
Mrs. Root Makes Complaint About
the Palm Garden.

A delegation of ladies. headed by
Mrs. S. V. Root, called on Mayor Doran
Yesterday and lodged a protest against
the performance being given at the
Palm Garden theater. Mrs Root went
into details with the mayor and gave
as her opinion that the entertainment
was not one tending to elevate the
morals of those who visited the place
The mayor promised to have the mat
ter investigated.
A. WeinholZer, proprietor of the Palm
Garden, who by vote of the council
was granted q theater license on the
payment of $25 per year, called at the
city clerks office yesterday afternoon
and after handing over the amount
secured the license.
The ladies who accompanied Mrs
Root made complaint to the mayor re-
lative to the alleged brutal treatment Of
one of the prisoners now at the county
jail had received at the hands of the
police when he was arrested. The
mayor, however, stated yesterday
afternoon that he should pay no at
tention to the complaint, owing to it
having come to him second handed.
The mayor was of the opinion that
complaints of this kind should be made
by the person or persons who had been
mstreated, otherwise he would pass
them up.

UNKNOWN MAN KILLED.
Fatal Accident Under the Rice
Street Bridge.

An unknown man was killed under
o'clock yesterday morning, by Great
walking on the track, probably in the
same direction as the east-bound train,
the approach of which he failed to see,
doubtless by reason of the heavy fog
hanging over the tracks. His body
was caught on the pilot Of the engine
and carried nearly 100 yards. When
the train stopped the man was dead.
Coroner Nelson was notified of the
accident, and, after an investigation,
concluded an inquest unnecessary. The
man sustained a scalp wound ten
inches long, and a fracture of the
skull, while a portion of the trunk was
badly crushed The body was re-
moved to the undertaking rooms of
Mccarthy & Donnelly. The dead
man was large of stature, weighing
about 1870. pounds, and apparently be-
tween tWenty-siX and thirty years OF
age. His features were large, and his
face smooth-shaVen. He was clothed
after the manner Of woodman, and
is thought to have been a Scandina-
Wan. There were no papers or other
means of identification upon his per
son. An old pipe and some tobacco
and bottle filled with scraps of pa
per were the only articles in his pos
session. Coroner Nelson is of the opin-
ion that death was not premeditated
by the victim of the accident. The
body will remain at the undertaking
rooms several days to permit of posi-
BILE identification.

TRACK AT KITTSONDALE
Secured by the Capital City Club
This Winter.

At the semi-annual meeting of the
Capital City Driving club, held at the
Metropolitan hotel last evening, the
following officers were elected for the
ensuing six months:
President-George w. Sherwood.
Vice President-Richard Price.
Secretary-W. l. EWert.
Treasurer-Abe EShelman
The president was authorized to APP
point an executive committee.
The club looks forward to a most
interesting winter season. A PROPOSE
ton was made to it whereby it could
secure the KittsOndale track for the
winter, together with cooling stalls for
the horses, and rooms for the club,
with no expense beyond maintaining
the track and the necessary fuel for
heating the rooms. This offer was
accepted at the meeting last evening,
and a committee, consisting of Al
Montbrian, James Paisley, James Fen
stermaker. II. w. Fagley, Matt Jensen
and Abe Eshelman, was appointed to
put the track in condition immedi-
ately.
A new track has been built there
with a StraightaWay course of three
quarters of mile, sixty feet wide on
the home stretch, and there is adequate
provision for stabling. The club has
the exclusive control of it, but will
permit horse owners, not of ST. Paul, to
drive on it at all times, excepting when
racing matinees are held. by payment
of a fee of 20 cents. The club dues
were fixed at IS, to provide fund for
maintaining the track, ETC.
Last winter the club had the use Of
the Como lake track, but the racing
was interfered with by other drivers
on the track.
From now on. during the winter, the
club will hold meetings every two
weeks, commencing next Tuesday
evening. The track will be graded at
once, so that it will be in condition
for the first snow fall. when a series
of racing matinees will be arranged
