Building Inspector Kingsley visited
the scene Of the accident shortly after
4 o'clock. 1t was nearly dark at the
time and he made no examination OF the
elevator, but will make an investigation
this morning. Asked as to the proba-
BILE cause Of the accident, Mr.. Kings
ley said it was one of those unavoidable
affairs where it was hard to say just
what was the cause. He understood
that the elevator had been inspected by
an agent for an insurance company,
Dec. 10. The agent had forwarded his
report to the company at Chicago, and
yesterday the firm received letter sug-
costing some minor changes in the ele-
vator. The letter was turned over TO
the person employed by the firm and
the work Of making the changes was
inaugurated at once. There was moth
ing. Mr.. Kingsley said, in the changes
recommended by the insurance company
which would account for the accident.
James Silk, elevator inspector in the
building inspectors Office, said the ele-
vator had not been in use for a couple OF
years until recently. When 1t was
started up after Dec. l, it was inspected
by him and everything was apparently
in good condition. The cable, new
one, was all right and he could give TO
cause of the accident.

Lake Superior at Lakewood, and also
has laid a forty-two- Inch force main

FINALLY THE woRKHoUsE.
j. ID. Mcdonald Tells a Hard Luck
Story.

J. D. Mcdonald was given a hearing be-
fore Judge Orr yesterday, on the charge of
contempt of court, and sentenced to the
workhouse for thirty days. Mcdonald for
merly conducted a blacksmith shop at 20
East Fairfield avenue and was arrested on
the charge of disorderly conduct at the in
stance of his wife. During the progress of
the trial in the police court Mcdonald fell
into the hands of lawyer whom he claims
induced him to mortgage all of his tools and
stock in his shop in payment for legal SER
vice and then denuded the shop of its con-
ness. He claims the lawyer represented that
he was in danger Of going to the state prison
for the offense with which he was charged,
when as a matter of fact, nothing but a
misdemeanor was charged against him. The
case was continued several times and when
Mcdonald failed to appear last week, an or
der was issued for his arrest for contempt
of court. He claims that he thought the
case was settled. Judge Orr, however, did
not credit the excuse and imposed penalty.

TO SECURE UNIFORMITY
County Financial Statements VIII
All De Alike.

Heretofore there has been a want OF uni
formity in the form Of county financial state
lnents made in January, and frequent appeals
have been made to the attorney general and
state expert printer for opinions and instruc-
tons regarding the same. These statements
are the most important made by counties,
and are kept ON file by the public ex-
aminer and secretary Of corrections and chart
ties. In order to secure uniformity and con-
form with the requirements Of the statutes,
the state expert printer, Mr.. Whitney, has
prepared, under direction Of the public ex-
aminer and state auditor, a sample form
containing the law and opinions of the at
torney general, and furnished the same to
each county auditor of the state. The form
Of statement Is approved and recommended
tcrney general, and it Is expected that here
after there will be the same uniformity in
county financial statements that there Is in
county delinquent tax lists.

TO TEST THE LAW OF 80.
Another Suit Involving the Question
of Salaries.

Another action has been instituted by
Dunoid Simard to test the constitutionality
of the law of 1895, regulating the salaries of
county officials. The defendants in this suit
are County Auditor Sullivan and Gates A.
Johnson Jr.. the county surveyor. The COM
plant sets forth the resolution of the board
of county commissioners authorizing the
county auditor to draw monthly warrants for
S208 SO in favor of the county surveyor. It
alleges that the resolution is without force
or effect and asks that the county auditor
be restrained from issuing and the county
surveyor from receiving monthly warrants
under the terms of the resolution.

CHRISTMAS SHOPPERS.
st. Paul Has "a Large Number of
Visitors.

The weather prediction for snow had
the effect Of stirring up those of the
Christmas shoppers who had been led
into procrastinating in the matter of
purchasing by the prospect Of a green
Christmas, and the result was appre-
ciable in the local shops and retail es-
adjustments in ST. Paul. The fact
that the express companies report a
large increase in their shipments to
local points is an unerring sign that
the purchasers are not by any means
all home people.
The hotels are furnishing accommo-
dations for more than the usual num-
Der of people at this season of the
year, and all indications are that the
efforts Of the ST. Paul retailers to at
tract their out of town patronage by
a thoroughly honest statement of the
advantage of coming to ST. Paul to see
the displays have been entirely sue
cessful. The crowds were larger yes
terday than before and all the balance
of the week it is expected the
local stores will be filled with both
ST. Paul and out of town buyers.

send to the players, so that he can
close with them before they sign
somewhere else. Those not having
purchased stock or tickets yet. should
do so at once so that the club will
have sufficient money on hand for ad-
