The mayor called the attention of
the council to a request of the Tri-
City Railway company that members
of the fire department be furnished
badges by the city to serve instead
OF psssbooks as now issued by the
company. The council concurred in
the matter, and the mayor, chief of
the fire department and chairman Of
the fire and light committee were
authorized to provide the badges.
The mayor said Twentieth street
was in the worst condition now that
it had been since he could remem Der.
He said the embapkment had given
way during the recent rains, and the
thoroughfare is now literally covered
with mud. 1t was left with the
street and alley committee to sug-
gest remedy.
A letter from the Jewell Filter CON-
pany in which the condition Of the
Rock Island waterworks plant is re-
ferred TO, and remedy suggested,
was read by the clerk. The company
stated that there is no reason
why. with slight Improvement, the
Rock Island filters could not be put
in such shape as to produce clear
water, and that If the council was
agreeable a representative Of the
company would come here, look over
the ground and make the necessar ?
improvement at nominal expense.
The matter was referred to the water
works committee.
Aid. j. G. Surman told the council,
that the water from the Mississippi
river was backing up over the low
lands in the western end OF the city.
The mayor stated that the pumping
station would be put in operation to.
dav to relieve the situation.
Then the council adjourned TO
meet next Monday night.

St. Paul, Jan. 23.-The senate occu-
pied the entire day in hearing the con-
t1nuation of the legal arguments in the
Dunn-Day contest. Mr. Evans con-
cluded his argument for Mr.. Day at the
morning session, and as Mr.. Clapp was
unable to speak, owing to throat
trouble, Mr.. Mum made the conclud-
ing effort in behalf of Mr.. Dunn. The
argument yesterday was, as on Thurs
day, entirely q legal proposition, and
no one would suppose from listening
to it that railroad or political interests
had any bearing on the case. Never
theless, when it comes to the decision,
those factors will undoubtedly be the
basis for the result. A man can see
the force of legal argument, when 1t
conforms to his views of the case in
other respects, with much more force
than when it goes against his wishes.
AS there are good legal arguments on
both sides, every senator can con-
scientiously vote upon the subject from
legal stand dpoint and still vote just as
he wants to On other grounds. The
senate intends to continue the discus

that Major Woodson will introduce any
witnesses. unless Mrs. Neal, the first of
the neighbors to reach the Mussey house
when the children were taken sick, should
be summoned. The state, for some reason,
has not issued a subpoena for her.
1t has been a long time since so much
Curiosity was evinced in a criminal case.
One of the biggest crowds that ever
squeezed into the criminal court room was
in attendance yesterday. There would
have been hundreds more present, but for
lack of room to accommodate them. Gray
haired women stood for hours, craning
their necks in jams of white and black
men. eagerly listening to the details of
the poisoning. One woman, probably 80
years old. was overcome and tainted. She
had stood for weary hours to satisfy her
taste for the morbid. Suddenly her face
blanched and she tottered and fell for
ward against the man standing in front
of her, and there was a furry in the court
rcCm. The proceedings were stopped and
Judge Wofford plainly showed his annoy
ance by slapping his desk with his open
hand and calling loudly for order. The
elderly woman was carried into an ante
room where she revived sufficiently to go
hCme and rest up for to-day's proceedings
The judge ordered the marshal to arrest
one man in the crowd who persisted in
talking in a loud voice. The marshal
locked for the man, much the same as he
would have sought for a needle in a hay
stack.
Mrs. Mussey again took the stand upon
the opening of court. In response to a
question by Major Woodson, she said that

of IabOring Men to Various
Places on ErrandS.

T. a. Beinder n saloonkeeper at Twen-
ty-fourth and Terrace streets, has caused
the arrest of w. G. Twiner, Il workinSman.
on the charge of obtaining board by false
prctenses. Turner may have seen better
days. He gives the impression of being
slightly demented from neglect and ex-
pcsure He is not an eloquent man, yet
he tells unique story.
II came here three days ago from Clay
Center, Kas," he said, where have been
engaged in bridge building. I was broke
and without friends and could not figure
out how 1 was going to eat. There was
no use begging for men l met said the
town was begged dry. Then l hit upon d
surer plan. 1 told Belinder that L was
going to work for the Kansas City, Fort
Scott & Memphis road in a few days and
asked him if he would not give me board
until l could get some money. lie said
yes and 1 ate a meal at his mouse. That
night 1 changed my mind and told Mr..
Belinder that [ was going TO work for the
cable company and would be engaged that
night in putting in a new cable on Twelfth
street. ! hired several men and told them
10 report for work that night. | do not
krow their names. To several other men
1 stated that l would be employed on the
Winner bridge construction and engaged
them to go to work. They are probably
now showing up for work on the bridge
at the foot of Grand avenue every day"
and u thin smile passed over his haSSard
face.
1t is known that Turner engaged several
men to work at the winter quarters of
Lemen Bros circus in Argentine and that
they went there and We're refused. 1t
was the men who We're to aid Turner in
putting in the new rope on the Twelfth
street cable road that disclosed to Be-
Under that Turner was not what he pre-
tended to be.
Turner acknowledges that he put up the
