cerning the fow of the Rio Grand

posed reservoir At Elephant Butte
II ia believed he will ask for q
postponement Of the. hearing. The
promoters of the Elephant Butte
dam have received from the gov
ernment the right 10 appropriate

thu taking OF the water from the

of the river in New Mexico does

sufficient.
The point to be decided ia this:

have net yet seen the annual report for
1878 of my predecessor. and am not advised
as to what recommendations wire made there
in as result Of his extended experience. but
my limited experience and examination re-
veal clearly that the efficiency of the de-
partment is hampered by lack of support, and
that with the present force and funds it is not
possible that ali the duties imposed by law
upon the public examiner should be properly
administered.
In 1878 of ESQ examinations required only
223 were made. and in the last six months of
1898 but a little over one-third of the ex-
aminations to be required for TIE year and
the amount expended was S3,S .09 leaving
only s61S.91 for the next six months.
The examiner some weeks ago asked for a
deficiency appropriation of $500 as an item
in bill presented by the state auditor. This
sum will enable the partmcnt to complete
the work. Until legislative action is had upon
this deficiency bill the department is limited.
! have also carefully considered thu duties
and estimated the requirements of the de-
partment for the future and have Or pared
bill for an act consolidating the lays relating
to the department CT public examiner and al
ant, which, with the additional allowance ask
I'd for herein, will relieve the legislature
from all responsibility If the duties imposed
on this Office are not satisfactorily perfor med.

PHiLEN PARK RIATS ORDERED
NEW PROCEEDINGS FOR AC-
QUESTION OF LAND

Preliminary work at Once
Property Wanted for Lake Iris

The board of park commissioners met
last evening and took the first steps
looking to q renewal of proceedings for
the acquisition of land for Phalen Park
The original condemnation was set
aside by the supreme court on the
ground of informally in the modes of
procedure.
The Phalen Park matter had been
thoroughly discussed at the previous
meeting of the board and Assistant
Corporation Counsel Taylor submit el
a form of resolution that was passed
resembling all previous proceedings in
regard to the condemnation OF land for
Phalen Park. This left the matter open
and President Wheelock was ready
with resolution that passed without
debate directing the city engineer to
prepare plats of Phalen Park and the
property to be benefited and damaged
A resolution was passed ordering tn :
board of public works to condemn the
property required for the enlargement
of Lake Iris Park, being lots 1914 to 1913
inclusive, and part of lot 154 il Hinkel's
Third amendment to Union Park.
Another resolution drawn up by Pres
ident Wheelock was passed thanking
the board Of public works for Their
courtesy in preparing plats of the prop
erty $50 feet on each side of LeXing ton
avenue for the proposed boulevard and
requesting the board to appoint day
for the hearing.
An application for permission to con-
duct a launch or sailboat on Lake Como
was rejected on the advice of Superin-
tendent Nussbaumer, who declared
that it would be dangerous.
The rest of the meeting was taken up
with general discussion, of the proposed
Lake Phalen boulevard and plans for
getting the consent of the property
owners outside of the city limits tor
de1ing on the northeast side of the
lake.

Patience has ceased to be a virtue
with the state board of corrections and
charaties in the case of Louis Ruwe, a
nonresident insane man, who was
dumped upon the Minnesota authori-
ties two weeks ago by the sheriff of
Scott county, Iowa.
Ruwe was brought to Jackson, Mimi.
February 8, bound hand and foot, and
after hoodWinking the local police offi-
Gals at that place the Iowa sher IF
and his three deputies left town sud
denly, leaving their man behind.
Since that time State Agent Gates
has been in constant communication
with the Iowa state board of control.
and he has been unable to get any sat
isfaction whatever from that body.
The matter was yesterday referred
to Attorney General Douglas, who will
determine upon what course to pu sue
for the Minnesota board today
In the past there has always been a
spirit of cooperation between the state
charitable and correction boards of the
several states in the exchange and de-
dependents.
The Ruwe affair has caused an es-
arrangement between the Minnesota and
Iowa boards which may make further
dealings between the states somewhat
difficult.
State Agent Gates has given the
Iowa authorities all the time necessary
to fix the matter up. Immediately after
the difficulty between the sheriff at
Jackson and the sheriff of Scott county,
Iowa, he wrote the Iowa board Of con-
troll, explaining the situation and offer
ed to submit the matter to arbitration
if the board had any reason to believe
that Ruwe's residence was in the state
of Minnesota. On the other hand, if
there was nothing to prove this, Mr..
Gates asked that the board immedi-
ately take the derelict off his hands
In the meantime Ruwe has been COM
mitted to. the ST. Peter insane asylum,
and from the attitude of the Iowa au-
thorities it is quite likely that he will
stay there until legal proceed ngs are
instituted to determine his residence.

Tipp had taken poison, though it might have
been possible that he swallowed a small dose
