PRIVATE sToHR is GUILTY:
Court Martial Imposes; Fine which
the Rattery Man VIII Not pay

The verdict of the court martial be-
fore which Private Stohr, of Battery
A, has been on trial, charging him
with absenting himself from drill was
announced yesterday: The. court finds
Private Stohr guilty of staying away
from drill from Sept. 8, 1895 until Dec.
II, 1897.
The sentence of the court is that
stohr be fined SO andEalsd be required
to pay SIS costs. In case Of his failure
to pay the fine and costs within five
days after a copy of the, findings of
the court are served on him. the court
martial can commit Stohr to the coun-
ty Jail for the term of twelve DAYS.
Stohr declares that he will not nav
the fine or any part thereof
I'm that event, If The court martial
commits Stohr to the county jail" saws
his counsel, William Louis Kelly Jr.,
81 will apply for writ r. of habeas
corpus, and in that way test the con-
stitutionality of the new military code
adopted by the last legislature. 1 con-
tend that the law is invalid and I'M
constitutional, because it gives the
court martial power to deprive a man
of his liberty without trial by Jury.
Moreover, the law is demonstrations
al because it provides for imprison-
ment for debt-that is in case of the
non-payment Of the fine I shall also
urge the objection that Mr. Stohr is a
subject of Germany and is not amena-
BILE to punishment by a court martial"

TO RESTRAIN THE SHERIFF.
Action by Ex-GOv. w. r.. Merriam
and Others to Prevent n
Sale.

w. r. Merriam, Helen w. Merriam
and Charles H. BigeloW, as trustees,
under the will of the late John l.. Mer-
Ram, have brought an action against
Sheriff Wagner to restrain him from
proceeding under a writ Of attachment
to levy upon certain shares of stock
which the plaintiffs claim belong to
them.
The writ of attachment was issued
in an action brought by the Lyman
d. Morse Advertising Agency against
Robert H. Merriam, to recover some
$500. The shares of stock upon which
the sheriff has levied consist of 800
shares of the capital stock of the First
National Bank of st. Paul, and 1875
shares of the capital stock of the ST.
Paul Fire & Marine Insurance COM
pany.
The complaint recites that the will
of John L. Merriam bequeathed to his
Wife, Helen NJ. Merriam, an annual al
lowance Of $4,000 for life, and instruct
ed the executors to set apart from, or
provide out of the estate, such dividend
bearing securities as would produce an
income of $4,000 a year The shares of
stock enumerated were the ones set
apart. Their value is alleged to be
$50, 0C0.
The plaintiffs demand judgment that
the writ of attachment issued in the
action against Robert H Merriam be
set aside and annulled that they have
Judgment for $1,000 damages against the
sheriff for the annoyance thus far oc-
casioned, and that the sheriff be re-
strained from proceeding to sell the
property levied upon in such action.

STATISTICS OF TWIN CITIES.
Question of Their Joint Publication
Discussed.

A conference was held yesterday afternoon
in the rooms Of the Minneapolis board Of
trade, between A. l.. Croker, S. T John
son, Col. G. D. Rogers, E. G. Potter and
Charles Wilkins, representing the board Of
trade, and R. B. Wheeler, E. S. Diment, S. o.
Merrill, E. Chittenden and John Caufield
representing the st. Paul Commercial club
chamber of commerce, read estate board and
Jobbers' union.
The meeting was the result Of correspon-
dence between a committee appointed by the
chamber Of commerce. real estate board and
Commercial club and the board of trade Of
Minneapolis in relation to the publishing of
the joint statistics of the Twin Cities. The
meeting was exciting.
The question was thoroughly discussed.
The idea is to have the joint statistics of
the two cities published in pamphlet form.
This little pamphlet will be placed in the
correspondence. of every business man Of the
two cities and sent over the world.
While the question Of future union was not
formally touched upon, several expressions
of friendlness to such movement were made
by both Sides and 1T was the unanimous opin-
ion Of those present that this publishing of
the joint statistics was opening wedge
to future amalgamation.
After much discussion regarding Details
1t was decided that another meeting would
be held in the near future, and in the mean
time both sides would devote themselves to
gathering figures and data.
1t was agreed by both committees that they
would report favorably upon the question
when they made their reports to their differ

school from eight years old up. They
draw from the antique.
The st. Paul School of Fine Arts was
Incorporated in June, 1884, a number
of st. Paul ladies feeling that there
was a demand for a means of more
serious study along this line. The
school was modelled on the same plan
as the best schools of the country, and
an earnest effort made by the ladies
interested to make the standard the
highest. AS a proof of the success with
which these efforts have been met they
point to the fact that three students
have recently been admitted to Ken
yon CoX's life class of the Art league
New York. To this class admission is
sought by students from art schools all
over the country by the sending of
drawings, and the st. Paul school feels
proud to have had three students ad-
mitted to so limited class.
One young woman went direct from
the st. Paul school into ST. Gaudens'
studios, and her casts have been great
ly complimented.
Several Of the st. Paul students have
gone direct into the Academic Julian in
Paris, being admitted with high rank
So the women feel that their endeavors
have not been misspent, even though
the school has had something of a
struggle financially.
For long time the school was under
the direction of Burt Harwood, and.
upon his departure for Paris a year or
more ago, he suggested Mrs. 1. n. r.
Barber as his successor and Mrs. Bar
Der has made quite as much of the
school, 1t is said, as did Mr.. HARDWOOD.
There are at present sixty members
enrolled, and though the tuition is as
large as Is usual yet on account of
the models, teachers salaries, and
