HELD IN ST. PAUL NEXT WEEK
INFLUENCE CANNOT BE GUESSED.

Col. John M. Stahl, secretary of the
officers of the Farmers National con-
gress and Pan-American agricultural
parliament, on behalf of the officers
of that organization, issued the follow
Ing call in Chicago yesterday
The next annual meeting of the
Farmers National Congress and Pan
American Agricultural parliament will
pc held in st. Paul Aug. 81 to Sept. 7,
both dates inclusive. In addition to
the regular delegates appointed by the
governors of the various states, the
governors have appointed more than
seven thousand associate delegates, and
1t is not too much to claim that the
meeting at st. Paul will be the largest
and ablest gathering of farmers ever
held In this country. Farmers every
where are most earnestly urged to at
tend the meeting. Their advice and
influence will be needed, and welcomed
there.
Shortly before his death, Mr.. Hatch
for so many years chairman Of the
house committee on agriculture, said:
"The Farmers National congress has
more influence with the congress of, the
United States than all other agricul-
tural organizations combined.
Not only the congress of the United
States, but the legislatures of the vari-
Gus states look to the Farmers Ma
tional congress to express the wishes
or the farmers of this country as to
legislation, and its proceedings are
watched with interest by foreign gov
ernments; hencesit is important that its
proceedings at ST. Paul be Characterized
by the most careful consideration and
the ripeSt wisdom of the farmers of
this country, and to this end the pres
ence of the greatest possible number
OF progressive farmers is desired and
earnestly solicited. All railways have
made a rate of aone} and one-third fare
for the round trip to all attending the
meeting, and the ST. Paul hotels have
made special rates Our body will be,
handsomely entertained by ST. Paul,
and there will be free excursions to
the wheat fields of the Red, River val
ley and to other points. The following
telegram just neceiyedl by me from, the
distinguished diplomat that has been
for so many years the Mexican minister

ing taken in GER meeting by foreign
governments and the high. character of

CYCLING IN THE EAST.
A. b. Ovitt Praises the Good Reads
They Have There.

Cycling has attained a much higher
development in the East than here,
says A. B. Ovitt, who returned yes
terday from an extended tour of the
Eastern states. Mr.. Ovitt attended the
national meet of the League of
American Wheelmen in Philadelphia,
representing the Minnesota division of
that association. Aside from this he
rode some 500 miles, which shows that
he spent considerable time of his three
weeks vacation awheel.
He reports that the roads through
out the East are far superior to those
in the West, and especially is this true
in New York and Pennsylvania, where
it is no trick at all to turn off GEN.
fury. AS the result of this great
many more wheels are ridden there
and in most of the cities it seems that
the person who does not "bike" is the
lonesome exception.
In New York city the riders tread
in and out the crowded thoroughfares
with consummate skill, and accidents
are surprisingly few; one reason for
this is that they all respect one an
others rights, and carelessness or sell
fishness is the exception. The ride from
Brooklyn to Coney Island is a particu-
larly favorite one and every evening
thousands of cyclists can be seen SPIN
ming along that course.

FREDERIIIA JACKSON DISSATIS-
FLED WITH ST. PAUL TRUST
CO. GUARDIANSHIP.
ASKS THE PROBATE COURT
TO CALL FOR ALL THE BOOKS
OF ACCOUNT, PAPERS AND
VOUCHERS.
IRREGULARITIES ARE CHARGED
She Wants the Company to Also
Pay Over Certain
Moneys.

Some violations of the law of 1885
regulating trust companies in this state
are charged against the St. Paul Trust
company in a bulky petition filed in the
probate court yesterday. The petition
err is Frederick Jackson the daughter
of Frederick Jackson, who died in st.
Paul in 1886, leaving considerable
property. To his daughter Frederika
who was nine years of age at the time
of her fathers death, he bequeathed
as set forth in the petition, the sum
of $4,000, of which 900 was in cash
about $1,000 in real estate and the
balance in promissory notes. The ST.
Paul Trust company was appointed
guardian of Frederick.
The petitioner, through her attor-
neys, Henry B. Wenzen and Daniel
Murphy, asks the probate court to
open and set aside it's order of June
20, 1896, allowing the final account of
the st. Paul Trust company as guar
dian Of the petition, and that Sept q,
1897, be set as the date on which the
application may be heard.
The petition alleges first that the
st. Paul Trust company violated the
law of 1885 in failing to render an an
nual account of it's guardianship to
the probate court, and declares that
for ten years the company made no
report to the court. The petition fur
Their charges that the ST. Paul Trus,
company disobeyed the law forbidding
the investing of the money of a ward
in other than first mortgage security,
1ox-1
given by one Richeson, covering prop
erty on which it had already loaned
$4,000 in return for a first mortgage
The second mortgage, it is alleged,
was made to the St. Paul Trust COM
pany, and by that company assigned to
itself as guardian of Frederick Jack
son. The assignment was recorded In
the register of deeds Office in 1885, but
bears date in 1892.
The petition finally charges that the
st. Paul Trust company violated still
another provision of the law prohibit
Ing the loaning of the money of a
ward except on a first mortgage of
land worth twice as much as the
amount of the mortgage. The petit
toner declares that the trust company
loaned $4,000, receiving as security a
mortgage covering land, never worth
to exceed $4,000.
The petitioner prays that upon the
opening and setting aside of the order,
the receipt given by her to the st.
Paul Trust company be delivered up
and cancelled, that the trust company
be compelled to produce in court all
its books of account, papers and
vouchers relating to the petitioners
estate, and that it also be required to

BONDSMEN ARE LIABLE.
Wallace & AIIard Supposed to Pay
What C. HI. BOtkin Didn't.


Judge Lewis filed a decision yester-
day in the suit brought by Charles J.
Berryhill, as guardian of Myrtle F.
and Vera o. Botkin, minors, against
Charles H. Botkin, the former guardian
of the Botkin children, and Thomas
w. Wallace and Ernest Allard, the
sureties on Botkins bond. The court
finds that the plaintiff is entitled to
judgment against the defendants, Wal
lace and Allard, for the sum of 81, $50,
which is the amount of money that
Botkin failed to turn over to his wards,
and is alleged to have absconded with
from the state.
The court finds that the defendants,
Wallace and Allard, executed their
penal bond in the sum of 5000, condi-
toned for the faithful performance on
the part of Botkin of his duties as
guardian; that Botkin subsequently,
evaded the service of the citation of
the probate court ordering him to rem
der an account of his trust as guardian
and that he had left the state and TAX
en- with him funds belonging to the
estate of the minors amounting to
$3.50. Subsequently the probate court
ordered the removal of Botkin as
guardian, declaring him in default, and
appointed Mr.. Berryhill as guardian,
and the latter was duly authorized to
prosecute Botkin's bond. The defend
ants, Wallace and Allard, disclaimed
liability, but the court orders judg-
ment against them in the sum of $3.50.

Conditional Offer of Bank of Mir

Conditional Offer of Bank of Min
nesOta Sureties Accepted.
Prior to the meeting of the, joint
committee on streets, the board of al
dernlene held an adjourned meeting, at
which a few routine matters were dis
posed of.
The most important matter came be-
fore the board in the shape of a COM
imunication from Corporation Attorney
Markham relative to a settlement Of
the city's account with the Bank of
Minnesota. When the bank failed in
December last the city had on gen
eral- deposit there the sum of $26, 939 II.
1t also had placed to it's credit in the
bank, in an account designated as in
terest or coupon account, the sum of
'$22, 4S0 81, to be used for the sole &pur-
pose of paying the interest coupons as
they fell due. The question as to tile
city'S right to recover this last amount
in full on the ground that it was a
special fund held in trust for a specific
purpose is now pending in the courts
Mr. Markham, in his conlmunicat ion
informed the council that, as to the
$26, 939,47 in the city's general deposit
account, the SuretieS on the bond given
by the Bank of Minnesota to the CITY
had agreed to pay the entire sum-, with
interest from Dec. 90 1886, provided the
city would relieve them from ali fur
Their liability. The corporation attorney
advised the council to avail itself of
this opportunity, as he did not consid-
er that the sureties were liable to the
city for the $22,480.61 deposited in the
interest coupon account. Upon this
recommendation the board adopted a
resolution providing for the settlement
proposed.
A final order was passed for paving
Laurel avenue with asphalt from Nina
avenue to Dale street, the contract not
to be let until February.
On the recommendation of the COM
mittee on public buildings and mar
kets, the bids for repairing the sheds
at the old market were rejected as be-
ing too high.
A resolution terminating the con-
tracts with the Warren Scharf Asphalt
Paving company, with reference. to the
streets on ST. Anthony hill, paved ten
years ago, was adopted.
The assembly ordinance requiring
the proprietors of lunch wagons to pay
a license was referred to the committee
on license.

Back From Its Trip to the LAX,
Mcdonald Region.

Mcdonald Region.
DR.. Sperry who left July % for the
Lake Mcdonald region with a party,
returned yesterday from a trip ex-
tending from Bolton north as far az
CLANCY glacier.
The party consisted of E. R. Shepard,
Minneapolis; w F. Anderson, st. Paul ;
"A. w. Norton, Northfield; G.. M. Phil
lips and M. G. Skinner, Northfield; F..
1T. Archibald, Dundas; A L. Sperry,
Owatonna; Prof. G. F. Dutton, Cleve-
land, Ohio; Theodore Neumann, Lake
vile, Conn.,; Louie Howe, Wyandotte,
Mich, some of whom spent but a few
days in that region, while the most
of them put in about three weeks
hunting, fishing and travelling by pack
train through that charming region.
h The party visited the Cammas valley,
Avalanche basin, Sperry glacier. Gran
ite park, Grinnell glacier, Aherns
pass, CLANCY glacier and Geological
park, covering in all about 100 miles
of horseback travel.
They report a smaller quantity Of
snow than usual in the mountains,
freedom from the smoke of forest fires,
most delightful weather, and an abund-
ance of fish and game.
Careful examination of three or four
of the leading glaciers in that region
were made, and the party climbed one
point on the summit of the mountains
from which seven interesting glaciers
were distinctly visible. hH5 <-7~st;s
DR.. Sperry says that probably there
are not less than twenty-five interest

JUDGMENT AGAINST THE CITY.
An Old Sprinkling Claim That Calls
for Interest.

The Midway Supply company OBJ
tanned a judgment against the city of
st. Paul yesterday in Justice Black
wells court in the sum of $3.50 with
interest from April l, 1895, at per cent
per annum. The company had the con-
tract for sprinkling the Merriam Park
district in 1894 and claimed that the
payments for the work were delayed So
that under the decision of the supreme
court, in the case Of Moran against the
city, it was entitled to interest. The
city had little if any defense in the
case which was tried yesterday. 1t
was set up on behalf of the city that
the contractors had known, at the time
the contract was entered into, that the
payments would have to be deferred
for some time after the work was COM
pleted and that the charge for doing
the work was much higher than it
would have been had this not been
taken into consideration at the time
the bids were made. Justice Blackwell
however, said under the decision of
the supreme court he could do moth
ing but order judgment for the plain
tiffs, and so ordered.
