LET OUT VICTOR HOLM.
BOARD OF CONTROL DECIDED TO
DROP THE ATTENDANT
LIT Is the Judgment of the Board
That He Was at Fault in
the Ryan Case.


Victor Holm, who. has been orderly
at the city hospital for the past two
years, has been discharged by Presi-
dent Kerwin, of the board Of control.
The discharge was agreed to by the
other members of The board, and this
action was taken by President KerWin.
owing to the absence frem the city Of
DR.. Ancker, superintendent Of the hos
pital.
The discharge Of Holm grew out Of
the complaints made by parties living
near the hospital that James RYAN. q
patient al the institution, was ordered
ana allowed to dress outside the hos
pltai. When the complaint was first
made, Holm denied that he had been
in any way to blame for the action of
Ryan, and. as the patient had left the
hospital ard could not be located, the
board exonerated Holm.
Friday afternoon Ryan's where
abouts was learned and ne was taken
before the board and told his story.
Ryan Informed the board that he was
given his clothing and ordered by Holm
10 dress outside the building which
he proceeded to do. Holm denied this
and said he had told Ryan he could
remain day longer and have his suit
fumigated. Ryan insisted that he was
not told this until after he had dressed
and was ready to leave the grounds.
The board considered that Holm had
neglected his duty in allowing Ryan to
dress outside the building, and, even If
the statement of Ryan as to being or
dered out were correct, Holm had made
mistake in not bringing him back
by force and making him dress inside
the building

May Roll the 81, 900 for the son. Frank
Roll, she being the child's guardian.
Mary Roll decided that the contract
entered into between herself and Mar
tin Roll was not binding as to COL
lecting his insurance money and made
application for the $4,000 The lodge
paid the money into court, and the de-
cision filed yesterday practically set
ties the suit.
Judge Kelly, in a memorandum &C
companying the decision, says:
IF this was a contest between the
next of kin OF Martin w Roll or his
legatee under a will and the PLAINTIFF,
Mary Roll, I would entertain grave
doubts of the latters right to claim any
with Martin w. Roll, and which she
admits he performed, practically re-
leases all his estate from her claims,
arising from their marriage relation.
But the contest being between the law
full widow and one who believes herself
the lawful wife, hut was not, I do not
think this contract is a bar I am
clearly satisfied, Roll, in designating
the beneficiary, designated none other
than May Roll, the interpleader and
her son. This designation, In view of
the relations between the parties, was
lawful, within the purposes of the
LODGE
Continuing, Judge Kelly says:
at Is urged that May Roll was never
within the rules Of the lodge, being
neither a member of HIS family nor
dependent upon him. Conceding for
the argument that she was not a. mem

He added that as he understood the

Hill, Of this city, was concerned, it was
to be used only for the sick and

he thought would be unwarranted, but
he, too, had seen statements, how we'll

found that some of the money had been
spent for the legitimate purposes of
the fund. One thing he knew, however
that Gov. Clough had lately becom6
sufficiently interested in knowing all
about the matter to investigate it for
himself, being determined to find out
whether the reports of its misuse OF
non-use were true. I'VE will therefore
have something reliable soon," conclud-
ed Mr.. Cochran.

there should be in that city meetings
of he auxiliary association in turn with

morrow, Monday evening, a special
meeting should be held there in the
rooms of the Commercial club Henne-

pose The hour Of the nesting VIII

whistled close to his head. Detective
Morrhesey was now close to Hart and
with 1eveled pistol was about to blow
his brains out, when Hart suddenly
tossed away his revolver and threw up
his hands.
Hart, besides being wanted in con-

ROLLS FIGHT FOR A ROLL.
Judge Kelly Decides That the Wife
Gets the Insurance..

Gets the Insurance.
Judge Kelly yesterday filed a decis-
ion in the case Of Mary Roll against
the grand lodge, A. o. U. W., Of Min
neapolis, and May Roll impleaded
The finding of the court gives May Roll
judgment against the plaintiff for
titled to the 81 900 now in the hands
Of the court.
The case is a novel one, and the
facts as brought out were something
out of the ordinary. Mary Roll, the
plaintiff, and Martin w. Roll were
married May 8, 1886. at ST. Paul. They
lived together as man and wife until
December or the same year, when they
separated. June 80, 1897, the twain
entered into a formal contract whereby
they agreed to live separate and apart
and wholly free from each others
Interference"
In this contract Roll promised to pay
his wife SIS per month, and she, in con-
sideration, released and discharged
him from any and all claims which she
might have for alimony."
March rs, 1890, at Milbank, s.. D..
Martin W. Roll caused marriage GER
emory to be performed between him
SELF and the interpleader In the suit,
May Roll: AT the time Roll represent
ed himself as a widower. Thereafter
and until the death Of Roll. in January.
1888, the parties lived as man and
wife. One child, Frank P. Roll, was
born to them, Aug. 8, 1893, and is still
living.
In August, 1897, the lodge issued to
Martin w. Roll certificate for 81, 600
payable at his death, one half to May
Roll and the other half to his son. On

the evening on a charge of vagrancy.
Another arrest made in the same con-
necnon was that Of Nellie Boyd, a
Ing. She is said to be an accomplice
and an old time thief.
The police are about to bring several
charges against Bliss. He is believed
to have robbed the houses on Six
teenth street last Sunday night, the
music box found in his possession hav-
ing been taken from one Of the dwell
ilngs entered. Hart is the pal of Ew-
ing, alias Hefter, who tried to pass a
$1,000 check on a. ST. Paul bank in July.
Ewing was bookkeeper at the Still
water prison, and tried to cash this
check while out on parole. Bliss had
been released at the time and was with
Ewing. Bliss made his escape while
Ewing was arrested.
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1898-10-23

sure she was dependent upon him
within the meaning OF the law Of the
order and, therefore, she is entitled to
the $1,000, unless her conduct in living
with Martin W. Roll was so meretri-
clouss as to make it contrary to good
morals to afford her such relief.
One who knowingly and wilfully
bears to man the despicable relation
OF mistress under such circumstances
would be entitled to no consideration
whatever. The interpleader, May Roll.
occupied no such relation to Roll. She
was wronged. She was, sinned against.
She believed herself to be his lawful
wife, and was faithful to that relation.
1t Is possible that Roll may have
imagined the contract between plaintiff
and himself dissolved their legal mar
riage relations. He acted like he did.
And in these days Of lax marriage laws
and easy divorces it is no marvel that
laymen have c>Afused ideas respecting
such Matters
