ment they would answer the purpose Of
hauling garbage. l figure that each horse
can be kept for 800 per year, which will
include shoeing and feeding and care. We
would need a superintendent and two ad-
ditional inspectors, the salary of the
superintendent say at $,400 and the in
spectors at $500 each. Men to drive the
teams could be secured at $1.75 per day
during eight months in the year. and for
$1.50 per day during November, December,
January and February The amount to be
paid the men would aggregate about Sl2,-
900, making the total for all purposes
about $4,000 per year, without the cost
of the horses or wagons.
"Of course in the first year there would
be an additional expense for horses and
wagons, but there would be none to buy
after that time, and the expense would be
much smaller than If paid to contractors,
and the work thoroughly done. The horses
and wagons could be secured for less
than $1,000, and q stable put up on the
city property on Eagle street at small
cost. The teams could be utilized to re-
move from vacant lots rubbish and tin
cans, which, under the present contract
system, are not Obliged to be removed
In the winter the teams could also be
used, or a part of them, in clearing the
streets Of snow, and this would be q
saving to the city in other funds
Yesterday DR.. Ohage prepared letters
which will be mailed to each of the mem
bers of the board of aldermen and as
sembly, asking their assistance in secur-
ing the placing of the garbage collection
in the hands of the health department for
next year. The matter will be discussed
at a meeting of the assembly committee
on streets Monday evening, and those In
terested are invited to be present.

with two double teams and twenty single

the cost will not be greater, except for
the first year, than the sum which will
be paid to the contractors under the pres

I'm the first place the department would

the regular quarterly meeting of the St.
Paul unions, and the various delegates
who represented the local union at the
recent state convention held at st. Cloud
Oct. 26 to Oct. 80, gave their reports of
the conventions doings last night. L.

Rev. s. G. Smith Gives Facts About
Them In His Fifth Lecture.

Rev. S. G.. Smith delivered the fifth Of
his series Of lectures on municipal life
last night at the Y. M G.. A. auditorium
before large audience, choosing as his
subject THE City in Business Abroad"
His lecture dealt with the various
problems Of municipal ownership and
gave a comprehensive review of the
methods employed by cities Of England,
France, Germany and other countries Of
the old world, to furnish the public with
certain necessities at the smallest pos
sihle cost, at the same time earning
profits which accrue to the municipality.
The system of granting unlimited fran
chises, so much in vogue in the United
States, was arraigned in the most severe
terms. The lecturer stated that IL no
country Of the old world. could a city
council grant unlimited rights to a
private corporation without mourning the
most severe censure. Paris was cited as
an example of a city owning it's own
lodging houses. abbatoirs, markets and
public baths. from which revenue was
obtained, aiding in furthering movements
for the public good and maintaining the
running expenses of the institutions kept
open by the city.

The commission men have made a new
move in their contest over the enforce
ment of the provisions of the Grindeland
bill, regulating the business of commits
sion men operating in the state, and have
instituted a new test case, to be taken
through criminal court, in which they
hope to gain decision.
Complaint in the new action was filed
in municipal court yesterday by H. A.
Hageman, who charges that, on Oct IS,
c. c. Emerson, doing a commission bust
ness in farm products and fruit in the
city of st. Paul, received and disposed of
a carload of apples shipped to him over
the Great Western from Illinois, without
first having procured a license for the
transaction Of business, as required under
the new law. The complaint was viewed
by County Attorney Zollman, and indors-
ed with note to the effect that war
rant be Immediately issued.
The commission men selected Mr.. Elmer
son, one of their number, as the principal
in the case, and are prepared to carry 1t
through municipal court and to higher
tribunal in case of adverse decision, the
idea being to take 1t to the United States
court. They are preparing to contest the
case closely, and hope to be able to gain
some advantage enabling them to set
aside the present Objectionable statute.

GIFT FROM MAI. bean
STATE HISTORICAL SOCIETY GETS
THE SPANISH GARROTE AND
NIPA HOUSE
MEMENToEs FROM MANILA


Maj. Edwin s. Bean, yesterday, pre-
scented to the Minnesota State Historical
society the Spanish garrote and Nipa
house which have been or exhibition in
the Boston window for several weeks to-
gether with several mouldy documents
containing the names of political prison
ers who We're executed with the instru-
ment. The prison record also discloses
the names Of 300 prisoners who were
taken cut and shot by the Spaniards
Dec. q. 1896 The record, however, con-
tains the notation, Died Of wounds"
but this is only a peculiar little way the
inquisitors have of referring to such
matters. Maj. Beams letter to the his
torical society accompan ying the gift is
as follows:
Warren Upham, Secretary Minnesota
brought with me from Manila Island Of
Luzon, Philippine islands, for the purpose
of presentation to your society. the fol-
lowing articles which 1 hope you find
acceptable: One garrote, one Nipa house,
one set Of leg irons and chains and the
original records. with translation thereof,
showing that on the night of Dec. 22,
1876, there was taken from the Preside
de Manila or penitentiary of the island
ninetytwo political prisoners. who were
shot for such offense and the certificate
of the parish priest as to their burial
and the names of those who received the
rites of the church.
This garrote has been used in the ex>
ecution Of thirty-seven persons as shown
by the records of the eXecutador of the
prison. The post upon which it is erected
Is the only thing about 1t which 1 did not
bring from Manila.
The leg irons are such as were used
by the Spanish in the punishment Of thar
prisoners, and upon my assuming com
mand of the above named prison, on the
first day of October, 1898, I removed the
leg irons from over three hundred prison
ers and this particular pair of leg irons
had been worn for over twenty years by
the prisoner from whose limbs they were
removed, their weight being fourteen
pounds.
The miniature Nipa house is a fair rep
resentation of the Nipa houses in use
on the Island Of LuZon, being about an
average as to character and architecture.
Yours respectfully.
