CONGESTIVE CHILL HIS END,
William It. MaxfieId Dies MT yyas,>-
ington After n Long
Illness.

Word was received in st. Pauf yc.;-
terday of the death at Washington of
William T. Maxfield of st. Paul.
Death came, according to a telegram,
after long illness as the result of a
congestive chill. For several years it
has been known among his friends
that Mr. Maxfield's end was near and
during that time his wife has been al
most constantly with him at a private
sanftarium near Washington, D. C. OF
late he has been failing rapidly, and
the cause of his decline was paresis.
Mr.. MaXfield lived in st. Paul for q
number of years, and was a son of
James T. Maxfield, at one time MAYOR
of this city.
He was a special partner in the
wholesale grocery firm of Maxfield,
Seabury & Co.. and upon the death of
Louis HI. Maxfield became a genera1
partner with Charming Seabury in the
firm of Seabury & Co. Not long ago
his interest in this firm was trans
ferred to his wife. During his residence
here he was prominent both in a bust
ness way and socially, and his mar
riage to Miss Louisiana Gibson, of
Louisville, KY, was a notable event III
social circles.
His wife and her brother, Duncan
Gibson, were at his bedside at the time
of his death. Mr. MaXfield is survived.

sisters, Mrs. d. K. Wiser and Mrs

1T UNHOODs IT'S CARS.
Northern Pacific Reforms It's Bag
gage and Postal Cars.

The Northern Pacific road is follow
ing the example of one or two of the
progressive Eastern roads, and will in
short time have cut off the platforms
and hoods of its hundred or more bag
gage and postal cars. This is done
for several reasons. Platforms are what
railroad builders term weak construc-
ton" and to do away with them will
save considerable expense, to say
nothing of the great amount of weight
saved in looping them off
In the case of baggage and postal
cars platforms are superhuous, wheth-
er they are blind platforms or whether
the cars have doors, as the only thing
necessary is connection between the
cars and not from the ground. The
cars, as they look with both the plat
forms and the ends of roof over them
removed, will present the appearance
of a solid vestibuled train, there be-
ing something like five feet saved be-
tween every two cars when the siIls
of the doors are brought right to-
gether
The new plan will also have a ten
dency to reduce the number of no
bces'' who ride at certain seasons, but
this is a minor consideration. Several
cars have been altered as described.
and are at the Como shops About
100 cars will be similarly changed.

Assignment.

Justice Collins, of the supreme court
yesterday decided the case Of jacob

The syllabus of the decision is:
In re-assignment of Jacob Skoii, insolvent
Swedish National Bank respondent, vs.
Joseph M. Davis as Assignee of said In
solvent, appellant.
1. 1t is a general principle that a trust
estate must bear the expense of its admin
1stration. 1t Is also established by sufficient
authority, that where one of many parties
having common interest in a trust fund
at his own expense takes proper proceed
1ngs to save 1t from destruction and to re-
store 1t to the purposes of the trust he Is
entitled to reimbursement either out of the
fund itself, or by proportionate contribu-
ton from those who accept the benefit of
his efforts.
g.. This doctrine is applicable in the ad-
mln1strat1on of an estate under the in
solVency laws of this state when such es-
tate has been protected or benefited by the
act of a creditor
J. A creditor proceeded under General
statutes, 1894, section 4249 and obtained an
oroer permitting creditors to participate in
the distribution of the trust funds without
ming releases. But nothing was added to
the trust fund, directly or indirectly nor
was the estate benefited in any way Held.

l. Where the general law recognizes and
amends the special laws relating to counties

DEFENSE STATES ITS CASE.
y. Do Obrten Opens the Argument
Tor the House of the Good

yesterday morning the defense open

the House of the Good Shepherd. CD.
OBrien addressed the jury for about
an hour, commenting upon the attempt
or the PLAINTIFFS attorney, Mr.. Butts,
TO exclude from sitting on the jury any
Roman Catholic. Mr.. O'Brien ex-
claimed:
Has it come to this that Roman
catholic cannot sit on jury; no longer
be heard on witness stand to tell the
truth? In this country when there were
only 100000 back in the colonial days
struggling against the power of all
Europe, and all 9the world stood by
with Idle hands, and when the scales
were trembling and 1T was not known
whether liberty should depart forever,
who was it that hurled their swords
INTO the scale and gave us the liberty
we now enjoy? 1t was Rochambeau,
Lafayette and D'EStagne, Roman
Catholics. Who was it that opened up
the rivers? Who were the voyageurs?
VINO was acknowledgements Who
was IT whose body lies Wondering in
calvary who erected almost within the
sound OF my voice a temple to the
living God? A Roman Catholic. The
ground upon which this magnificent
building stands was presented to the
public by Vetal Guerin, Roman
Catholic. And where the capitol build
Ing stands holding aloft the statue of
justice with sword and scales? The
ground upon which that building
| STANDS was given to the state as a free
gift by Bazille, a Roman Catholic.
The case is not Selma Clewett against
the House of the Good Shepherd, and
the motive is not proper one. The
purpose is not to redress wrong, real
or fancied, but to use her as a cloak
tehind which malice may strike. Roman
Catholics false to their oathS; false to
their countryi Oh, I could drown a
million men in the blood of Roman
Catholics who died that their country

Marten Bohen, the driver of the

afterwards all three got into the wagon
