but the church and guild hall would have
to be excepted for some years.
The committee reported that other large
holders of property in the block were will

sonable figure, ard the only question
which now cOnfronts the committee is az
to the raising of the money to- pay for
the site. Comptroller McCardy favors
but half a square being taken this year,
owing to the fact that the purchase, or
condemnation, of an entire block would
cause an increase in the tax levy Of at
least one mill. This increase is based
on the price paid being about O00 for
any site, and. If the property owners
should make the total for the land to be
taken anything over this figure, it would
mean more than a mill increase.
1t is reported that the desire of the
comptroller and others Of the Republican
leaders in the council, is to put over the
selection of a site until next year in

Harvey Officer. Maj. John Espy and
Rev Charles D. Andrews, vestrymen and

a meeting of the special council committee
on market sites yesterday afternoon. The
session was an informal one, owing to the

report to the council that it's first choice

property do not insist on the city paying
three prices for the land.
Christ church owns the land at the
northwest corner of Fourth and Franklin
setreets, and Mr.. officer, as one of the
vestrymen of the church. assured the
committee that the church would not b.
an obstructionist in case the city wanted
the block for a market. All the church
would ask was a fair valuation for the
land and improvements taken. He sug-
gested that perhaps some arrangement
could be made by which the church would
be allowed to remain for a year or so
until arrangements could be made for
removal to some other location. He was
not prepared to give any figures as to

Charles Richter Offsets to "a Pioneer
Press Editorial.

Charles Richter. an etcher and en-
graver living at West ST, Paul, yester-
day commenced an action in district
court to recover $1,000 from the Pioneer
Press for an alleged libeous editorial
which the plaintiff CONSTITUTES to have in
Jurod mis- reputation by referring to him
as a ''scorcher."
The plaintiff alleges in his complaint
that he is 'peaceable, Industrious, pru-
dent, law-abiding and respectable and
We'll esteemed by all his neighbors," that
is prior TO the publication of which lie
complains. On May %, 1895, he colIided
with one ]. D. Jauss and was arrested
on complaint charging him with as
sault in the second degree. He was
bound over tn await the action of the
grand jury. The plaintiff denies that he
was reckless or a ''scorcher' so-caIIed ::
that he had ridden for four years and the
accident that called forth the newspaper
comment was due to the deafness Of the
victim.

IMPRESSION Is BAD.
What Europe Thinks OF One Fact
OF the Philippine Row.

Archbishop Ireland, who was in Chi
cago Thursday attending the meeting of
the Catholic Total Abstinence society. Is
thus quoted in an Interview in the Chi
cago Tribune:
81 found that the Roman Catholics in
Europe believed the interests of the
church would be much better guarded in
the Philippines by an American than by
a native government, and that it was
considered to the best interests of the
church that this country speedily settle
its troubles there and establish a stable
government. This country must settle
that difficulty with haste, however. for
the sake of the good opinion of Europe.
1 came home with the idea that unless
we were speedily successful there Europe
would hold that we did not know how
to handle our outside possessions. The
fact that we have not been able to re-
lease the Spanish prisoners held by Agui-
naldo has caused a bad impression"

WANTS TO DISSOLVE.
Charles J. Burns Sues His Partner
for an Accounting.

Owing to a disagreement, Charles j.
Burns yesterday commenced suit in the
district court against Charles B. De Witt,
with whom he was in partnership, asking
for a dissolution of the partnership; for
the appointment of a receiver and for an
accounting. The two were engaged in
the livery business at Fifth and Cedar
streets They formed the partnership in
June, 1896, under an agreement by which
the profits and losses were to be shared
equally. Now Burns claims that De Witt
has been collecting partnership money
that he has neglected to turn over, and
that he has rented a building on Carroll
street with the intention of removing the
assets of the firm there. The plaintiff sets
forth that the firm owes about $500, an
amount that is about equal to the value
of the assets.

Clerks the Best Part of "a Week.
Comptroller McCardy has notified the
board of public works that future esti-
mates Of the sprinkling contractors will
not be approved by him unless the esti-
mates are accompanied by detailed state
ments showing the particular streets
spTinkled. It has been customary for the
city engineer to certify to the board of
public works each month an estimate for
the sprinkling done in each of the eleven
districts. These estimates when approved
were sent to the comptroller, and the
amount allowed and paid
Yesterday morning a taxpayer called
at the office Of the comptroller and in

sprinkled during the past month The
comptroller was unable to say whether it
had or not
We'll, that's funny said the taxpayer,
you pay the sprinking contractors
monthly. I understand, and I think YOU
ought to know whether they are sprink-
ling all the streets"
The comptroller. after his caller had
departed, decided there was something in
the query, and accordingly notified the
beard Of public works that in the future
the sprinkling estimates for the several
districts must state just what streets
were sprinkled. instead of having the
number Of feet Jumped in one line. In
qu1ry at the Office OF the city engineer.
where the estimates are prepared, brought
Out the information that the detailed
statement could be prepared for each
estimate, but it would require one or
two clerks the best part of a week TO
make such statement. as it would re-
quire a copying of the names of all the
streets on which sprinkling was done.
The comptroller. however has intimat-
ed that no more estimates will be ap-
proved unless accompanied by state
ment as to the number of feet sprinkled
on each street, and the number of times
daily the sprinllling has been done. In
view of this stand it Is very likely that
the city engineers force will prepare
statements as asked for by the comp
trcller.
