WINONA. Mimi. Sept. 30. Another
set of three letters have been received
in this city from Milton Lombard, and
though most of the word received was
of a private nature to his home rela-
tives, yet certain things he speaks of
are of considerable interest. He is still
in Skaguay pass. He has built cabin
there, and will spend the winter in
true prospector's style. His life has
proved quite exciting and full Of the
dangers Of the wild country and rough
men with which the pass is filed.
Near by where he has his cabin were
two camps, one consisting of ten men,
and the other enrolling sixteen. Both
of these camps were completely swept
away and the lives of all of the two
parties lost by an immense avalanche.
Milton seems to be enjoying the eX-
citing life, and writes he is in good
health and spirits.
Gambling takes place openly, and
the stakes played are enormous, for
tunes being daily made and lost by the
games of chance. He saw one man
''break bank" playing roulette, play
ing $500 each clip.
The weather now is getting consider
ably colder and on every hand various
camps are being made for the winter
Milton hopes to be able to begin push
ing his way on again by next jan
uary.

WARY OF BRIBERY CASES.
Grand Jury, 1t Is Believed, Did Not
Touch the AIexander-De Lafttre

Grand Jury, 1T Is Believed, D1d MOI
Touch the AIexander-De Laittre
Affair.
The grand jury of Hennepin county
has adjourned until Nov. 1, and so far
as known, without taking action on the
Alexander-De Laittre bribery affair.
The members of the jury met yester-
day in a session lasting from until
shortly after 5 o'clock. They then re-
ported to Judge Elliott with punch
Of four indictments and were excused;
1t was expected that the jury Wouid
take some definite action in the Alex
ander case Charles Hanson, secretary
of the state capitol commission, VINO
was subpoenaed to appear before ne
iury with the records of the commits
sion. and who visited the court mouse
Wednesday when that body was not
in session, did not put in an appear
ance Yesterday afternoon. rms WAS
probably due to the fact that county
Attorney Peterson had concluded thtII
a perusal of the records would De OIL
little use to the jury.
The only witness examined IN CON
nection with the matter was w. w.
Eastman. Mr.. Eastman was sum-
moned in consequence of a story to the
effect that he had been approached by
Aid. Alexander with the request that
he use his influence with Mr.. De Lalt-
ire in an effort to keep the alleged
bribery affair quiet. The fact that MI
Eastman is a brother-in-law of Mr..
De Laittre lent some color to this
rumOr. which was, however, denied by
Mr.. Eastman when asked about it.
1t is probable therefore that Mr.. East
man gave the grand jury the same IN
formation Aid. Alexander also denies
emphatically that he spoke of the mat
ter in such a way to Mr.. Eastman.
1t is likely, therefore, that the entire
affair has been laid over until the next
session of the grand jury. 1t was not
thought that, with the evidence alone
of Mr.. De Laittre, the grand jury
would be justified in bringing an in
dictment, inasmuch as Aid. Alexander
emphatfcally denied the charges. If no
more evidence can be secured in the
meantime, it is probable that the mat
ter will not come up before the grand
&Iry again.
v AS a consequence of the four ind1ct-
ments returned by the jury yesterday
afternoon, there swill likely be some
arraignments this morning. Among
them it is expected will be that of A.
FL. Num-, against whom the grand jury
have found other indictments, which
are more specific than the former ones
upon which he has been arraigned.

FARM TITLES ENDANGERED
Claim Jumping Causes Indignation
in Martin County.

FAIRMONT, Mimi, Sept. 30.-Martin
county, one of the long settled sections
of Minnesota, has now a case of claim
jumping, whereby a man by the name
of Blair seeks to secure a forty acre
tract in c. Dickinson's farm, near
Fairmont. The land in question was
taken as homestead prior to the
Southern Minnesota land grant, but
abandoned. Afterwards, when the
grant was made, including this tract,
Mr.. Dickinson secured it from the rail-
way company.
Blair is in possession of the tract and
proposes to remain. A few days ago
the neighbors, who are highly indig
nant over the. matter, tore down the
temporary shanty he had erected, and
he is now at work on a genuine Min
nesota dug-out, which makes up in
substantial merit what it lacks in ar
chitectural beauty. Blair claims thai
the government has sanctioned his en-
try. He is doubtless working under
some legal advice, and if Mr. Dickin-
sons title should happen to prove
worthless, many other farmers of the
county will find themselves in the same
fix.

IRRIGATORs ADJOURN.
Next Years Convention to Be Held
at Cheyenne.


LINCOLN, Neb., Sept. 3O.-The men,
bers of the National Irrigation con-
gress kept up their record for industry
today, crowding much work into two
short sessions and concluding their
convention in time to allow many of
the delegates to take evening trains
for home. Ex-senator Carey, of Wyo-
ming, who was yesterday elected presI-
dent of the congress, scored a triumph
today by securing the next meeting
for Cheyenne, and he was again hon
ored by being chosen as chairman of
the national executive committee.
Federal versus state control and
maintenance of reservoirs in arid dis
trictS was the rock upon which the
congress seemed destined at one time
to split. A prepondeEance(o sentiment
favorable to federal icontHol was show
on vote to adopt the majority report
of the committee on resolutions A
resolution favoringU postal savings
banks was tabled, and the. report of
the committee was adopted a. a whole.
A paper on "Art6sian Waters of
South Dakota" by Prof. J. E. Todd,
state geologist, opened the afternoon
session. 1t was an elaborate illustrated
review of the subject96f wells and arti-
fetal overflow of the Northwestern
states. Il ~
A supplemental report of the COM
mittee on resolutions pledging the sup
prot of the irrigation, congress to the
Hermann bill, now pending in the
house of representatives, providing for
the cession to the states sof million
acres of arid lands, was adopted.
The executive committee announced
the selection of the following officers:
Chairman, Joseph M. Carey, Of Wyo-
ming; secretary, F. J. Mills Idaho;
traa S11rer q M HaipfZ California Tho
chairman was empowered to appoint
three members to constitute commit
tee to influence legislation favorable TO
irrigation before the senate and house
at Washington. At o'clock the con-
gress adjourned sine die.
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1897-10-01

Upon consent of the county commits
sioners present the county rate was
cut to 4 mills even. Cuts were made
on several of the budgets of the city
current expense fund.- but the matter
was left open until a later date.
AT the afternoon session the discus
sion of the city's current expense fund
was continued. The police and fire
budgets were allowed to stand for dis
cussion after the return of Mayor
Pratt from the convention Of mayors
at Columbus. The roads and bridges
budget was taken UP with the result
that it was decided to reduce it to
$1,000 from $4,000 as asked, the idea be-
ing to reduce the force of watchmen
at the various bridges. The Ratchet
was also laid at the roots of the pound
recommendation for $4,000, the general
opinion being that this could be cared
for with three pound masters instead
of seven.
The city hall budget was allowed to
stand temporarily as submitted. The
miscellaneous budget was treated in
like manner. The special appropria-
ton budget was cut $500 on street
opening expenses, $500 on the mayors
contingency fund and $500 on the coun-
ell contingency fund, reducing the to-
tai from $4,000 to $4,000.
The permanent improvement fund,
as recommended, amounted to $2O4,O0o,
made up of the following: New en-
CINE house lot in the Eighth or Fourth
ward, $1,000; new engine house con-
struction, $4,000; city's portion of new
sewers, $4,000; city's portion of paving
and curling, $54, 500; bicycle paths, 81
900; repairs of bridges, sewers, paving
and curbing, $4,000. City Comptroller
Nye thought that another engine
house was not a necessity, and be-
lieved that 81, 500 could be saved by
looping that item off altogether. The
matter was taken under consideration.
The board listened to a report from
Mrs. Crays as to the needs of the
school board She reported that the
estimated expenses for the next year
would equal $765, 100, which, after de-
auctions of state appropriations and
other incomes, would leave levy CT
4.52 mills necessary. AS the limit for
the school board is four mills, she eX-
planned that the board of tax levy
should allow. the school board the limit
No action was taken before the board
adjourned for the daV
