COUPLE WE'RE Welded TUESDAY.
Their Whereabouts Could Not Be As
certained Last Night, but Are
Supposedly In ST. Paul.

A young man walked hurriedly into
the clerk of courts office yesterday
forenoon, and, stepping up to one of the
windows, asked the deputy clerk if a
marriage license had been issued to a
certain person within the last few days.
The deputy looked over the list and
found the record showing that on Dec.
IS license had been issued.
The young man, who was evidently
laboring under considerable excitement,
asked if the clerk had any record show
ing who performed the marriage GER
emony. The deputy replied that no re-
turn had been made. The young man
said he would be back later, and de-
parted
In the afternoon the return was filed
in the clerks office.
1t certified that on Dec. Il the under
signed had performed a marriage cere-
mony uniting in the bonds of matri-
mony the persons named in the license.
The certificate was signed by Rev. Will
lam Colbert, of st. Patrick's cathedral.
Soon after the return was filed the
excited young man made his reappear-
ance, and asked deputy clerk to give
him certified copies of the marriage
license, and the certificate signed by
Father Colbert. He was accommo-
dated
AS Deputy Clerk Johnson was max
ing out the certified copies the young
man, who, it is understood, is the
brides brother, said
THAT man has a wife in Chicago"
Further than that, Mr. Johnson says,
the young man did not enlighten him.
A reporter for the G o re called
at the home of the brides parents last
night. The door was opened by the
father The mother and two young
children were within, but there were
no signs of any one else about

further than that he declined to reveal
anything.

The old man displayed some irrita-
ton, as he replied: we wanted to

When questioned concerning the
statement made to the clerk about a
wife in Chicago, he positively declined
to discuss the matter, except to say:
I'VE don't know anything about that
yet We may know more later. You
mustn't say anything in the papers

At the cathedral parish residence
last night, it was learned that the
brother Of the bride had called there
yesterday and stated that his family
was opposed to the match from the
beginning. He furthermore gave ut
terance to the suspicious he had con-
fided to Deputy Clerk Johnson.

CHRISTMAS AT HOME.
Judge Tvohy's Mercy to an Alleged
ShOpIifter's Family.

Several days ago two women, giving
their names as Sophia Smith and Mary
Falls, were arrested by the police,
charged with shOpiifting. Two hats
identified by a representative of
Schunemann & Evans were found in
the possession of the twain, and they
were arraigned on a charge of lar
ceny. The case was continued to Dec.
20, and the women remanded to the
county Jail, in default of bail. Thurs
day evening the husband of the woman
who gave her name as Sophia Smith
appeared before Judge Twohy and Of
fered a bond in the sum of $500 and
500 in cash as surety for the appear
ance of his wife on the day for which
the examination is set. The man said
his child was i'll, and that, it being
Christmas time, he desired that his
wife be allowed to accompany him
home. Judge Twohy accepted the bond
and cash ball. and issued an order for
the release of the woman. Seen last
evening, Judge Twohy said there was
no attempt, so far as he knew, to set
tie the case outside Of court. He had
not called in the county attorney when
the bail and bond was accepted, but
assumed the responsibility himself.
The husband of the woman, the Judge
said, was well known in Minneapolis,
and there was no reason to doubt but
that she would appear in court when
the case was called.

NINETY DAYS TO READ IN.
Joseph Anderson VIII Take Chau-
tauqua Course at Como.

Joseph Anderson was the assumed
name under which an elderly and
genteel appearing man was sentenced
to the workhouse yesterday by Judge
Twohy for ninety days. He pleaded
guilty to the larceny Of books from
the st. Paul Book and Stationery COM
pany and claimed that he was forced
to steal in order to provide for his
wife and himself. The attorney for
the book company stated to the court
that an investigation had been made
which indicated that the statement
of Anderson as to the needs of himself
and wife were not true. Anderson
said he realized that he had done
wrong, but, in view Of the fact that
he had never before been in trouble, he
should be dealt with leniently. Judge
Twohy evidently could not hear An
derson very we'll, as he imposed a fine
of $10O or ninety days in the work
house. The attorney for the firm from
which Anderson pilfered the books in
formed the court that, if it was found
that the wife Of the prisoner was in
need, the company would provide for
her during the time her husband was
confined in the Workhouse.

Col. Scheffer SAYS the officers of the

Creditors.

An application for the discharge of
Receivers Albert Schaller and Hiram

by Albert Scheffer, the president, and

stockholders and a number of the I'M

The petition recites that the receivers
of the company have brought an action
against Albert Scheffer, as trustee of
the bondholdars to determine the valid

them. The petitioners allege that they
believe it to be for the best interests
of the Volkszeitung company creditors
that the property and management
thereof be restored to it's proper Of
ficers, as in that event it can be so
managed as to pay all creditors in full,
whereas, If the property Is not returned
and the mortgage should be foreclosed,
the petitioners are confident that the
unsecured creditors would not be paid
and the property would be greatly de-
preciated.
The petition further declares that the
creditors whose names are subscribed
thereto have all consented to a settle
ment Of their claims against the COM
pany
There are some dissenting creditors
whose names do not appear at the foot
of this petition Among the latter are
Col Edward Tietz, Albert Schaedlich

these, the petitioners say that the sum
total of their claims does not exceed
S7OO and such amount, the company
offers to pay into court, or else prom

SALVAGE CORPS FIGHT.
1t Is Revived by Some of the Local
AGENTS.

The old feud between the salvage corps and
some of the insurance companies has re-
vived in a measure. 1t is claimed that some
of the local agents hold ten times as many
shares as others, thus keeping the control of
the corps in the hands of a few members.
Some of the agents, among them John Rog
ers Jr. & Bro, have advised their companies
not to pay their salvage corps tax of per
cent on their LEGAL premium receipts until
the question is settled.
Both sides sought Insurance Commissioner
Dearth, the salvage corps people asking that
he compel the companies to pay their tax,
and the other people to learn If he had au-
thority to enforce payment while the dispute
was pending.

1t unnecessary to consider whether the in
surance commissioner had authority to collect
the tax under the circumstances, for the rea-
son that the insurance commissioner could
accomplish compliance with the law by a
plain and ample remedy" The revocation Of

companies that, unless the tax was paid,
their licenses to do business in this state
would be revoked.

a list of it's officers for whom passes are de-
sired. The applications are all made upon u
uniform blank, and about the 1st Of Deem
Der the work Of going over the lists and max
ing up the list of men who are to get the
coveted pasteboards Is begun. About this time
the passes have been filled in with the name
