CERTAIN ACTS OF THE CITY

IN THE LIGHT OF THE PUBLIC.
EMPLOYEES HEREAFTER ONLY TO
DATION OF CUSTODIAN.
NEW ELEVATORS FOR BUILDING.
If the Necessary $4,000 Can Be
Found, They VIII Be Put In
Shortly.

1t will cost the city and county be-
| tween $4,000 and $4,000 to equip the
court house building with two new ele-
VatOrS in place Of the lifting machine
opposite the Fourth street entrance,
but if the funds can be obtained, the
much needed improvement will be
made
Such was practically the decision ar
rived at yesterday by the joint court
| house and city hall commission. Build
| ing Inspector Kingsley, to whom the
matter of improving the elevator SER
vice was referred at the previous meet
ing, reported that it would cost about
$1,000 to prepare the shaft opposite the
Fourth street entrance, for the recep-
tlCn of two elevators and that the cost
of the elevators and the work of plac-
ing them in the shaft would amount to
something like $1,000 additional.
w. c. Baldwin, representing a GER
tain elevator company Of Chicago, eX-
planned the plans of the proposed ele-
vators to the commission. The matter
was finally referred to the purchasing
committee consisting Of Messrs. Daily,
Dix and Kellerman. The committee
Will first ascertain what funds, # any
are available for the Improvement
Hereafter there will will be no more

the custodian first recommends such
discharge or removal. In accordance
with a resolution offered by Mr.. KEEL
herman and unanimously adopted, no
employe shall be removed except upon
| recommendation of the custodian and
then only for cause. Mr. Kellerman
explained that he offered the resolution
in order to put a stop to the recent
babyish behavior Of the joint commits
sion in. discharging janitors, rehiring
them and then firing them again
A communication was received from

was referred to the committee on
grounds and buildings.

WILL BE WARMER TODAY.
Severe Cold Wave Expected to Pass
Over.

The weather bureau advises, not
promises, that 1t will be much warmer
today. This, according to the observ-
er, means that it will be anywhere
from 10 to Is degrees above zero. Yes
terday morning was the coolest wealth
er, so late in February, in the history
Of the local weather station. Those
who were obliged to be on the streets
early in the morning advanced the
opinion that 1t was the coolest weather
ever experienced in Minnesota at this
time Of the year. The official figures
show that early in February, 1888. the
thermometer registered SO below zero
Thermometers registered all the way
from rs to 80 below at Prince Albert
"a at Winnipeg, "a at Huron. % at
Moorhead, this state; "a at Battleford
and rs at MinnedoSa.
During yesterday the thermometer
did not get above the zero mark in St
Paul, although there was a raise of %
degrees between 5 a. m. and 5 D. m.
The sudden cold was more severely felt
in the drop of % below than the 81
below of last month. Last year at this
time or Feb. 20 the thermometer was
10 below, but on no day after that date
did the mercury get down to zero.

Secretary Jackson's Statement OF
the Progress Of Selecting Those
Entitled to Receive Work.

A mass meeting Of the organized I'M
employed Of the city was held yester-
day afternoon in Assembly Room No.
q at Labor hall, and in spite Of the
fact that the city is at the present
time giving employment to some 200
men, 1t does not seem to have thinned
the ranks to any extent, for more
than 400 were in attendance, and at
least 100 were unable to gain admit
lance to the room.
The meeting was called to order by
President Peter Max and F. r. HAYS
was elected secretary. This organiza-
ton was made permanent, and A. Par
ads, the first speaker on the pro-
granlme was called on to state the OBJ
ject Of the meeting. In his remarks
he stated that it was apparent to a
great many, that the manner in which
the $4,000 appropriation, recently set
aside by the city, was being used, was
not at all satisfactory, and that some
further steps must be taken to help
the unemployed. He suggesed that
they give UP the idea Of receiveing any
substantial help from the city and de-
wise methods whereby they could help
themselves.
His remarks met with the hearty
approval Of most Of the men present,
and a resolution was passed that the
whole matter be referred to the exc
cutive committee, and that they as
certain what could be done in the way
OF placing the unemployed in a posi-
ton to help themselves, and that they
issue an address to the people of St.
Paul setting before them the above
facts.
The remarks Of Mr.. Paradis were
followed by short addresses by F. r.
Hays, Joseph Green, George Shaw and
and purchase several hundred cords of
wood, let the unemployed saw this
President Max. 1t was suggested that
a good plan would be to borrow money
wood and sell it, retaining the profits
and returning the borrowed money to
the lenders. A committee consisting
of E. E. Fisher, A. Paradis, William
Brown and F. R. Hays was appointed
to ascertain what could be done in
this direction.
After this committee was appointed
a. resolution was introduced and passed
directing the executive committee to
wait on the council and ask that they
levy a special assessment of 800 900,
the funds to be used in providing labor
for the unemployed. It was stated
that the resolution was not introduced
with any idea that the request would
be granted, but with ~ desire to place
the council on record-zT39gf trazx-4, 81.
The meeting was adjourned to come
together again on Thursday afternoon,
March 4, at which time the executive
committee will hand in its report.

POLICE LIE DOWN AGAIN,
Ask That the Case Against Maggie
Davis Be Dismissed.

The case Of Maggie Davis and Anna
Gray, charged with keeping a disor-
DERBY house, was set for trial in the
police court yesterday afternoon. The
women were arrested by Lieut.. Pothen
and Sergeant Ross about a week ago
A man, who gave his name as Cooper.
was captured at the same time by the
officers, but he put up bail and did not
appear in the police court The case
was continued until yesterday to give
the police a chance to get Cooper as a
witness. When the case was called
yesterday, City Prosecutor Oppenheim
informed the court that the police
wanted the case dismissed The ground
for the dismissal was based, according
to the statements Of the officers, on
the ground that they could not secure
witnesses. This was the second time
Mr.. Oppenheim stated that the Davis
woman had been arrested for the same
offense, and it appeared very queer
to him that arrests should be made
and then requests should follow from
the officers that the case be dismissed
Lieut. Pothen said an effort had been
made to find the man who had forfeited
his bail and was the witness in the
case, but without success. The case
was continued to March 8. Judge Two
ny refusing tc dismiss the case after
hearing the statement of Mr.. Open

APPLICATIONS FOR WORK.
Secretary jackson Approves of 1,155
out of 1,401.

Secretary Jackson. Of the Associated
Charities, said last night that the num-
Der of applications 50 far taken out by
the unemployed had reached a total
of 1,491, and Of this number 1155 had
been returned properly filled out This
supply will not be exhausted for about
three weeks and then there will be sui
ficient funds left to give work to about
500 more.
Secretary Jackson finds, in investi-
eating the applications returned, some
very queer cases. In three or four in
stances men have filed applications who
are living in their own homes and
who are also deriving a revenue from
rented properties and in several in
stances men have made application
who have families living at home and
earning an aggregate of more than
fifty dollars a month. The feeling
amongst the majority of the men who
will be given work, is that the city
is doing a great deal for them, but
others seem to think that they ought
not be obliged to take their pay In
kind.

John G. Daub's Remains to Be Taken
to St. Louis.

The body Of John c. Daub, former
hookkeeper for Michaud Bros, who
committed suicide Thursday night. will
be taken to st. Louis for interment.
A telegraph received yesterday from
a son of the deceased, stated that he
would arrive in st. Paul this morning.
A member of the firm, by which Daub
had been employed for the past four
teen years, stated yesterday that there
was no shortage in his accounts, but
an expert bookkeeper had been put to
work on the books. The act of Daub
had undoubtedly been caused by i'll
health. He had been complaining for
several months Of insomnia, and be-
ing an inveterate smoker. this tended
to make his condition worse. He had
left the store last Tuesday, but it was
not understood that he intended TIC re-
sign his position.
