BOARD OF TRADE.
Resolutions Adopted Concerning the
Death of a Former President.

The meeting of the board of trade
Monday morning was brief one.
A communication was received
from the committee on joint debate
of the University of Wisconsin asking
the board for its opinion on the gov
ernment or private ownership and
operation Of the telegraph in the
United States. The board thought
that it came too near politics, and
laid the communication on the table.
The status of the Walnut street
sidewalk matter was talked over
Secretary Chapman presented the
following resolution, which was
adopted:
ReSolUed, By the board of trade of
the city of Mankato. that by the death
of the Hon. John f. Meagher the
board has lost useful member, and
the city valuable citizen.
He was a member of the board of
trade from its first organization in
1868, and was one Of its first board of
directors, was president in 1869 and
1870 and since that time has acted on
some of it's most important commit
tees. For the last nine years he has
been member of the standing COM
mittee on railroads, and for part Of
that time its chairman.
We, his associates in the board of
trade, extend to his family our sincere
sympathy, and cause these resolutions
to be recorded in the minutes of the
board.
There being no further business, the
board adjourned.

The Northwestern and the
Omaha roads Thursday filed an
answer to the complaint of Jordan &
Hayes that switching charges are
excessive. In their statement to the
railroad commission P H. Jordan and
ID. T. Hayes allege that the switching
charge of SO from the tracks of the
companies mentioned to the Mime
apolis & St. Louis tracks in Mankato
are unreasonably high and demand
reduction to So. The railroad COM
panies set forth that the present rate
has been reduced from S., and regard
it as very low. They decline to make
a further reduction. The commission
will set a date for Q Tearing.
Mr.. and Mrs. John Klein moved
Thursday into Leo S. Lamms
residence, 124 North Broad street,
and Mrs. Klein will take care of her
little grand children, who are now
motherless. Mr.. and Mrs, Frank J.
Busch yesterday moved into the Klein
residence, on South Second istreet,
giving up their nicely furnished home
at the corner of Broad and Washing
ton streets. Mr.. and Mrs. Klein
occupied the residence which they
have just vacated for twenty-seven
years.
While Thomas Moses and family,
of Kasota township, were enjoying
Ringling's circus at Mankato on
Saturday last, tramp thieves broke
into their house and stole set of
silver knives and forks and a colIec-
tion of coins. They also took Com
rade Moses spectacles, but having no
use for them, they threw them into a
slop pail on the outside of the house,
and when he came to feed his hogs he
discovered them in the pail.
Stephen Lamm, who has been
very sick with bowel trouble, is now
able to sit up and is improving
rapidly. His little daughter, who was
also sick with the same trouble, is sc
far recovered as to be able to be out

HAMBURG DOCK RIOTS.
Two Men Killed and Nineteen Severed!
E Wounded---OficersA Among The Latter.

Two Men Killed and Nineteen Severely
E Wounded Officers Among The Latter.
Hamburg, Feb. 10.-Ever since the
decision of a majority OF the men who
took part in the great strike here OF
dock laborers and others employed in
the shipping trade to return to work
there has been much discomfort among
the men, and those who watched the
situation closely could see that trouble
was brewing. The defeat of the strill.
ers was due mainly to lack of funds,
and they felt very bitter that they
were compelled to return to work with
out having in the least benefited their
condition. Last night the bad feeling
among the men eliminated in bitter
fight between large number of the
men who had been on strike and the
police. Before the disturbance was
quelled two men were killed and
nineteen seriously wounded. Among
the latter are five policemen.
The police were rapidly getting the
worst of the contest, they being greatly
outnumbered by the raging mob OF
rioters, whose numbers were quickly
swelled, not only by genuine working
men, but by the hordes of vicious idlers
about the harbor, who were only toe
anxious under the circumstances to
engage with their natural enemies, the
police. The latter at first attempted
to get the mob to disperse by the use
of mild means, but these proving una
vailing, sabres were drawn and orders
given to charge the mob. The rioters,
some of whom were armed with revol.
vers, with others had bludgeons and
stones as weapons, held their ground
tenaciously and made a desperate re-
sistance which the police were unable
to overcome. Eventually reinforce
ments were hurried to the scene and
the rioters were dispersed with
great difficulty. Later crowds of work
ingmen gathered in Sanct Paul., Will
helmsburg and Altoona, all of which
places are practically parts of Ham.
burg, and threatened vengeance on the
police. A heavy rain was falling and
this tended to keep indoors many OF
the discontented workingmen who
might otherwise have taken part in

THE ARMoR-PLATE QUESTION
Senate Committee VIII Probably Dispose
of 1t In "a Few Days.

Washington, Feb. 10.-The armor'
plate question, which has been trou-
bling the senate committee on naval
affairs for many weeks, will probably
be disposed of within few days. The
committee has agreed that the maxi
mum price to be paid for armor-plate
shall not exceed the sum named by the
secretary of the navy, $400. Mr..
Chandler, in his report, finds that ar.
NOR ought to be furnished, with fail
profit to the manufacturers, at $500 a
ton, but the committee, thinking that
this is too low, will report in favor OF
a scale between these two figures,
leaving the maximum as found by the
Rohrer board, which was composed OF
naval experts in arinor and its pro
cesses of manufacture. The secretary
will also be authorized, if the recon-
mendations of the committee are car
ried out, to secure a plant for the
manufacture of armor by the govern
ment in the event that he cannot make
satisfactory contracts with the Carne.
gle or Bethlehem people. For this pur.
pose one and half million dollars will
be asked, the committee and the secre.
tary believing that this will be sutfi.
cient. Mr.. Chandler's structures on
Commodore Folger have softened, but
otherwise the report will be sub
mitted to the senate about as written
by Mr.. Chandler.

st. Petersburg, Feb. 10.-The bourse
Is in state of panic over the news
from Athens, which declares that Greece
and Turkey are on the verge of war.
and that the peace of all Europe hangs
in the balance.
Athens, Feb 10.-Advices from Canea.
Greece, show that there has been re-
newed fighting outside the city be
tween the belligerent Christians and a
body of Turkish troops. From the ac-
counts received here it is judged that
the Christians defeated the troops. Fif-

OPINION OF EX-LIEUT.- COY. SAXTON
The President-eIect Uniformed of tho
Plans of the Inaugural Parade
and BaII---Some of the Latest
Visitors to Canton.

Canton, O., Feb. 10.-The statement
that ex-Gov. John D. Long had beer
definitely fixed upon for secretary OF
the navy was confirmed by Major Mo
Kinley himself this morning. There
will be no departure from this assign.
ment of the navy portfolio unless the
entire cabinet slate should be rear.
ranged at the last moment. Ex-Lieut..
Gov. Saxton of New York called upon
Major Mckinley last evening. He
said: 81 have come to Canton in the in
terest of a friend, and 1 do not care to
state the precise purpose of my errand.
! will say this much, however, that il
has nothing to do with the selection OF
q New York member of the cabinet in
any shape or form. l am not an aspir-
ant for appointment to the cabinet,
and think the most acceptable New
York republican for that position and
honor is Gen. Stewart L. Woodford OF
Brooklyn, but 1 fear New York may
be left out altogether" Mr.. Saxton
said he had not been offered the
position of collector of the port of New
York, and that Chairman Bidwel had
the endorsement of the organization
for the place. Major Mckinley listened
to an ample and detailed discussion
last night of the plans for the inaugu.
raj ball and ceremonies. G. j. Bell OF
Washington, chairman of the inaugu.
raj committee lunched with him and
told him all about the arrangements
for the ball. Gen. Horace Protel
came down from Cleveland and ex.
planned the plans for the big parade.
General Porter is to be grand marshal.
He spent the night in Canton. 1t is
understood that his visit has no re.
lation whatever to the New York po
htical situation and that he is no lon
ger under consideration for the cabinet
Mr.. Bell expressed the fear that the
failure of the railway companies to
furnish low rates for organizations
might reduce the crowds somewhat,
but from the accommodations already
engaged it is known that Washington
will be thronged. Among Major Nc
Kinley's visitors were A. J. Lester o1
Springfield, ILL.,, and w. w. Tracy OF
Chicago, who lunched with the presi
dent-elect. Sylvester Everett of Cleve

Mrs. Nellis Convioteh.

Erie, Pa, Feb. 10.-Mrs. Kate M.
Nellis was convicted last evening in
the court of sessions of administering
poison to her husband, Peter II. Nellis,
proprietor of the Avenue hotel, Girard,
Pa, last fall. The evidence was CON
elusive that Mrs. Nellis placed anti
mony and other drugs in her husbands
coffee. Gardner, Nellis former bar
keeper, who, together with his mother,
Mrs. Stowell, are accused of being ac-
cessories to the crime, will be placed on
trial at once. Mrs. Stowell is fugi-
