STATE DECIDE TO ASK

MIR. FLETCHER WILL BEAR TT
MinneapOIis' Congressman VIII
Present the Bid to the Nations
Chief Executive When He Visits
Washington Next Week 1t Is
Hoped to Have Him Spend "a Day
in Each of the Cities.

Preliminary steps were taken yester-
day by a delegation of prominent citi-
ZenS from this city and Minneapolis for
the expected visit of President Mckinley
to the Twin Cities.
The meeting was held in the Office of
Davis, Kellogg & Severance, and in at
tendance were Senator Davis, Congress-
man Stevens, L. A. Rosing. private sec
rotary to Gov Lind, and n 5. Tall
madge, of ST. Paul. Congressman FEET
cher, Mayor Gray, Former Mayor Pratt.
Walter Gregory. Lieut.. Vincent ana S.
T. Johnson. of Minneapolis.
1t was decided that St.-.Paul and Min
neapolis should each select q commit
tee of ten and this joint committee
should work i'm harmony in the proposi-
ton to have President Mckinley spend
at least two days in the Twin Cities
one day in st. Paul and one in Minneapo-
lis
This committee of ten from each city
is to be composed of the mayor ana
three representatives from the chamber
of commerce, Commercial club and job
bers union. The naming of the repre-
sentatives from each of the commercial
bodies is to be left to the respective
organizations.
Congressman Fletcher leaves for
Washington Sunday night and will Invite
the chief executive of the nation to visit
Minnesota during the coming summer.
1t is probable that the Minneapolis con-
gresham will present a formal letter
to President Mckinley from the commit
tee, but this had not been decided upon
as yet.
The sense Of the meeting yesterday
was that the visit of the president would
be in the nature of a state affair rather
than for the Twin Cities alone, and the
arrangements will be made on that
basis.
1t was agreed that it would be the ocr-
rect thing if the visit of the president
and the reception to the Thirteenth regi-
ment on its return from the Philippines
could be had at the same time, but the
arrangements for each event will be
pushed separately, and then If it should
happen that they occur at the same time
so much the better.
The appointment of the committee
will be taken up by the chamber of
commerce at It's session Monday morn
ing and the Commercial club and Job
bers' union will follow suit within few
days.

Harry l.. Gotham successfully accom-
pffshed the feat Of riding up the Selby
avenue hill last night at Z o'clock on a
nineteen-pound racing wheel, geared to

performance is looked upon by expert
enced cyclists as nothing short of re-
narkable.
A very large crowd was out in anticipa-
ton Of the effort to break the record,
and the weather was perfect for the at
tempt. The wind, such as there was, did
not afford any obstacle, as the high stone
wall on the south side of the street gave
ample protection. Gotham made two
trials, the first failing on account of an
accident. When three quarters of the
way up the hill the bystanders crowded
on to the pavement and got In his way
His right foot slipped from the pedal and
he fell, receiving a slight injury to his
wrist. Going to the bottom he made a
second attempt, which was successful.
The unusually high gear of the wheel

keep 1t In motion, but the rider climbed
swiftly at first, then slower and slower.

six and haIf-inch cranks, he forced 1t
up and up until within fifteen feet Of the
top, when he suddenly spurted. and fold
ing his arms, went over the brow of the
Hill, hands free. An ovation greeted his
success.
Gotham now holds the undisputed rec

ever made a successful trip up the hill
with anywhere near as high gear F.
G. Chase, of the Matheis Cycle company,

ton of the mount after the climb show

ing confidently predicted that no s1S-fnch
crank shaft made would stand such
strain. The wheel, however, appears to
be in as good condition for riding as
when first put out from the factory.

Judge Kelly denied the motion made by
the attorney for Carl Fl. Park to set
aside the judgment by which Park was
convicted and sentenced to the state
prison for three years. The court held
/ that he had no Jurisdiction to entertain
such a motion made at term other than
at which the defendant was tried and
convicted. The trial and conviction had
been during the April term and if made at
all should have been made before. the
close of that term. ;
The attorney for Park then raised the
point that Fl. c: MeNair. one OF the
grand jurors which indicted Park. was
according to the law not eligible to serve
and for this reason the jury was not
properly constituted.
Judge Kelly refused to hear testimony
on this point intiraating thar the supreme
court had held that the proper time to-
object to the grand jury was when that
body was sworn or when the defendant
was called upon TO plead.
