Schifmann and the entire ticket. His re-
marks took the house by storm.
R. A.. Walsh was cheered to the echo when
he made his appearance on the stand. He
gave his personal view of each candidate, and
made an especial plea for E. L. Murphy, can
didate for alderman, who, he said, was the
best alderman the Ninth ward ever had.
Mr.. Murphy was then called for, ard amid
great cheering he made his way to the front
and made brief acknowledgement for the
kind reception, and assured his hearers that
II elected he would strive to represent all
be found working for the best interest Of the
ward and the tax payers of the city. He did
not think Erwin fit man to elect to the
mayoralty OF large city like st. Paul, nor
did he believe that Mr. Kiefer would give
satisfactory administration. He urged them
all to- vote for DR.. Schiffmann, who would
undoubtedly be the next mayor of st. Paul.

The fire spread rapidly throughout the coal
shed and quickly communicated to the ad.
joining wood shed, and before the fire de-
partment could accomplish effective work.
both buildings were in ashes.
The comparatively slight loss is due to the
fact that only small quantities of supplies
were stored in each. the buildings also being
old structures which had been in use nearly
twenty years.
Three fat cars loaded with coal. which had
been drawn beside the shed to be unloaded
today, were somewhat damaged.

MORE WORK FOR JENSEN.
The City Clerks Attention to De
Called to a Little Matter.


There was a special meeting Of the Labor
Assembly last evening to act upon the re-
port of the special committee, appointed some
time ago to consider what action should be
taken on the new charter, on election day.
The committee reported in favor of advis-
Ing the people Of the city to vote against the
charter.
Moritz Helm was present to make an argu-
ment for the charter. He asked that the
report of the committee be. not adopted until
the matter was fully discussed. He pointed
to those chapters of the charter particula: ly
affecting the common property Of the people
In franchises. He said that 1t was essential
that there be something done to put stop
to the giving away OF valuable franchises
and he finally won the meeting over to max
ing compromise on the report OF the COM
mittee.
Mr.. Helm pointed to clause In the ensbli lg
act which requires that the city clerk put
all Of the twenty eight chapters of the
charter on the ballot in such manner that
they may be voted upon separately. It
was decided that some portions OF the charter
were desirable and the special committee was
instructed to demand of the city clerk that
he put the chapters, with their captions, on
the ballots separately and if the clerk re-
fused tc comply with. the demand the COM
mittee was empowered 70 mandamus him In
the name Of the labor 11assembiy.
The demand will be made today.
