last of April, and perhaps earlier, if
the ice in Lake Pepin goes out in time
Il believe the coming season will be

for the G b on the docks yesterday.
There will undoubtedly be plenty of
water in the river all summer long. The
company has arranged to put some of
the best boats in service on the upper
river. Among them will be the Quincy,
which is the handsomest boat on the
Mississippi north of the Ohio. 1t is a
new boat and was placed in commits
sion the latter part of last season. Then
there will be the New Dubuque, a
handsome packet 800 feet in length. The

sary.

all proceedings in consequence Of an
injunction obtained by Mr.. Hennessy,
the owner Of the Hennessy farm, who
contended that the city had not secured
a right of way through his farm, which
covered the easterly one mile of Third
street. The city made no defense tC
Hennessy's action, not bringing the in
junction suit to trial, but abandoned all
proceedings. Prior to the formal an
nulling of the proceedings by the COM
mon council, the city treasurer and city
comptroller had refused to pay an es-
innate of the plaintiffs amounting to
81 $50. which had been regularly al
lowed. The refusal was based on the
ground that there was no money in the
treasury for that purpose. The city
also took the position that the contract
with the plaintiffs was invalid.
The court finds that the position
taken by the city was untenable, and
orders judgment to be entered as above
set forth, the amount named being the
sum due for the actual work employed
and material furnished by the contrac-
tors for which they have not been paid.
The total sum paid the contractors OH
this job amounts to about $4,000.

ASK THE COURTS ADVICE.
Bank of MinnesoIta's Receivers Feel

Bank of MinnesOlta's Receivers Feel
ing Their Way.
Receivers Seymour and Lightner, of
the Bank Of Minnesota, made applica-
ton to the district court yesterday, to
acertain whether, and to what extent,
the liability of the stockholders Of the
bank shall be enforced. If the court
decides that the Liability shall be en-
forced, then the receivers ask the court
to ascertain the amount of the liability
of the stockholders necessary to be
enforced, and to file an order requiring
the stockholders to pay said amount
necessary to be paid on account Of
their liability to the receivers within
such time and in such manner as the
court may order, and authorizing and
directing these receivers, in default
thereof, to enforce the payment Of said
sum by appropriate proceedings IN
court.
The petition recites the personal and
individual assignments made by Will
liam Dawson Sr, William Dawson Jr
and Robert A. Smith; that the petit
TONERS are informed that the holders
and owners of $4,000 of the stock of
the bank are non-residents Of the state
and have no property in the state
which can be made to satisfy judg-
ments against them. 1t is further set
forth that on March s, 1897 one Jo-
hanna Anderson began an action under
chapter rs of the General Statutes 10
enforce the double liability of stock
holders, which action is still pending.
The petition also alleges that certain
creditors of the Bank Of Minnesota
contend that the provisions of the
banking act of 1895, providing for a
single liability Of stockholders, are I'M
constitutional and i'lappliclble to The
Bank Of Minnesota, and that the liabil-
lty of the stockholders ought to be en-
fored under an action covered by the
provisions of chapter rs of the General
Statutes.
Finally the receivers declare that in
their judgment the assets of the bank
will be and are insufficient to pay the
debts of the bank and that the de-
hclency will exceed the amount which
can be collected from the stockholders
OF the bank upon their double liability
for the debts and that it is necessary
10 enforce and collect from said stock
holders at least an amount equal to the
amount Of the stock owned by SAID
stockholders.

Ing well-rained detectives, they asked no
1uFther questions but proceeded in bust
ness-like manner to perform the important
mission entrusted to them. First they wrapped
the wooden box carefully In paper to con-

ton, and with an air Of great mystery deliv-
cred their burden into the hands Of Supt.
Weber. Mr.. Weber was in the plot, and
after taking the box into another room and
making pretense of opening it, returned
and told the detectives that there had been
mistake and 1t should have been sent
to John O'Connor.
So down to John J. OConnor's office on
red by the unsusDecting pair, but there again
they learned thataa mistake had been made.
Mr.. O'Connor insisted that the box should
nave been kept at the central station until
Its contents were needed in court, and much
to their disgust the sleuths had no alternative
but to return with it to their starting point.
1t was during their return trip that they
suspected the trick, but not being quite sure
they held fast to the box until they reached
the station. Then the cover was removed
and the full force of the joke revealed to
them.

BUREAU 1T IS.
Plan Adopted by the Western Roads
Now In Effect.

NOW In Effect.
CHICAGO, April 1.-The agreement
regarding freight matters, practically
adopted yesterday by the Western
roads, was today formally ratified by
the executive officers and is now in eff
feet. The freight matters took up very
little time today and the meeting then
turned its attention to passenger af-
fairs. The general passenger agents
some days since recommended that the
Western Passenger association be turn
ed into a bureau Of statistics and in
formation and the recommendation was
adopted by the executive officers. The
clergy bureau and the mileage bureau
Of the Western Passenger association
will both be retained and the clerical
force Of the organization will be re-
tanned. The only change in the working
of the association is that it will have
hereafter nothing to do with rates or
their maintenance.
There has not been q time in the last
three years when rates in the West,
both freight and passenger, were as
well maintained as at present. There
is no rate cutting among any of the
standard lines and every precaution
is being taken to prevent any democrat
iZation, The unanimity with which the
roads are keeping up the rates is at
first rather suggestive of an agreement
but Ii Is utterly Impossible TO prove II at
any agreement, verbal or other wise, ex-
lists among the roads.
Each of the roads is in a position to
declare that it has taken nothing but
individual action, and, more than that,
ii is in position to prove it's declara-
ton Each road has for itself issued
orders to contracting agents that under
no circumstances are rates to be cut.
If all the roads live up to their instruc
lions to agents there will be no chance
whatever of any Generalization in
either the freight or passenger business
of the Western roads.

FOR RECEIVERS SERVICES.
Seymour and Lightner Ask for an
Allowance.

The receivers of the Bank Of Minnesota
each filed individual petitions in the district
court yesterday, asking the court to fix the
amount Of their monthly compensation for
their services as such receivers. Mr. Lightner
asks simply for the allowance Of a mon hly
compensation. Mr.. Seymour asks the court
to allow him $3.50 month as he is willing
that the balance of his compensation as re-
ceiver be credited to him on account of his
debts to the bank. The petition enumerates
the debts of Mr.. Seymour to the bank, as fol-
lows:
One note is for s., 600, made Nov 10 last,
due in six months, secured by ten first mort
gage bonds each for $1,000, of the Chicago,
Fort Madison & Des Moines railway, worth
5000. Two other notes to the amount Of
$4,000, given in November 1895, for six
months, with William R. Merriam as accom-
mediation maker, and both said notes. to-
gether with another note for 5000, held by
other parties, are secured by conveyance to
W. D. Kirk, Of land In Cook county, Illinois
