A WRIT OF
ASSISTANCE
Directing the Sheriff to Take
Possession of
ALL BOSTON & MONTANA
Company Property Issued, But the
Defendant Files Notice
of Appeal.
ALL BOSTON & MONTANA

Another attempt was made shortly be-
fore noon today to place Thomas r.
Kinds in charge of the Boston & Mon
tana property, but it slipped a cog. The
move was made via what is known in
legal phraseology as a writ of assist
ance," which was issued by Judge Clancy.
1t was directed to Sheriff Regain and COM
manded him to place Kinds in charge Of
the property. Notice was at once served
on the Boston & Montana company's at
torneys, and while the sheriff was organ
ling a posse to invade the works and
other premises of the mpa the attor-
neys prepared a notice of their intention
to appeal to the supreme court, and with
a bond of $50. 000, signed by M. DOnahue
and D. J. Hennessy, filed it in the office
of the district court. This step stayed
further proceedings and matters assumed
their normal condition.
When notice of the appeal was served
on the sheriff the county attorney was
asked to give an opinion as to it's validity.
Mr.. Connolly was not in his office, sick
ness in his family preventing him from
being there, but Cornelius Kelly, his chief
deputy, rendered a decision to the effect
that the notice of appeal flanked by the
bond, was sufficient to stay the execution
of the writ.
After the appeal had been filed the
Boston and Montana people at once
chartered a special train to onvey the
attorneys for the company to Helena to
lay the matter before the supreme court.
Receiver Tom Kinds was also busy. He
had collected a body guard of several
husky fellows and proposed making a
visit to the mines at 2 o'clock, but failing
to secure the assistance of the sheriff
he decided to postpone the visit until a
later day.
The statement was made yesterday by
an employee Of the Leonard shaft that in
case Kinds was given possession as re-
ceiver, the first move made would be to
food the mines by submerging the big
pumps at the properties, and thus allow
ing the mines to fill with water. 1t is
| hardly probable, however, that such a
proceeding would be resorted to as it
would entail a heavy loss by reason Of
the damage to the mines.

RUMGRED CHANGE OF ROCTE By
WISCONSIN CENTRAL.

Now that good times have stimulated
road building, there are rumors afloat
regarding many proposed improvements.
There does seem TO be some basis of rea-
son in the change of route which it is
predicted the Wisconsin Central will
soon make in its run from Milwaukee to
St Paul. With but little road bnilding
saving of 30 miles can be made between
Fond du Lac and St Paul.
The travel between st. Paul and the
lake board is eagerly sought by the com
peting lines. The Central, at present, is
at disadvantage as its line is not as di-
rect as Others, though it has long been a
favorite in St Paul business. 1t is pos
sible that so little difficulty lies in the
way of shortening the distance suggested
the purpose of President Whitcomb to
make the change. He is quick himself
to perceive advantages and not slow in
profiting by his perception.
The proposed change is to purchase
the Marshfield q S. E. road which ex-
tends from Marshfeld to Grand Rapids,
and extend it to Fond du Lac thus cut
ting off the circuit by way of Menasha.
The Central has an unexpired option on
this strip of road Surveyors are at
work in the territory through which the
proposed extension would be made A
second part of the change is to extend
the branch jutting out from Marshfeld
to Greenwood as far as Bateman point
now on the main line, thus cutting off
Abbotsford, to reach which now, the
line makes an unnecessary detour north
ward. This would make the road take
one leg of triangle where it now takes
two.
This would give an air line from Mani
towoc to ST Paul, straight as the crow
flies, shortening the present route by full
~ 20 miles 1t would give almost a
straight line from Fond du Lac. Trains
from Manitowoc to St Paul would, III
case of this change, connect with trains
from Milwaukee for ST. Paul at Marsh
field 1t is pretty line, Judging from
the map and there may be more to this
contemplated change than there is to the
usual railway rumors.

THE WILLIAMS BLOCK.

The Williams Block will be ready for
occupancy November l 1t is as hand
some building as there is in the state
and reflects credit ON the architect, Ar
Tegen No expense has been spared to
make it first class in every particular.
Its massive proportions are relieved by
its hight which also preserves its SYM
metry. 1t has the largest quantity OF
plate glass in the city The plate glass
on Jaw street is 139 159 inches, the
largest piece in the city 1t had to be
brought here by way of Appleton as it
would not pass through the viaduct at
Sheboygan under the Fond du Lac branch
of the Northwestern. 1t weighs almost
1000 pounds. The plate glass in the
store to be occupied by Charles Groffman,
swhat is called skeleton frame, the front
glass and that extending inward to the
door being beveled and clamped togeth-
er, making unnecessary the usual gas
pipe support.
The corner store will be occupied by
Schmidtman Sons. The plate glass front
is REINFORCED by the large plate on Jay
street thus giving the store beautiful
appearance and an abundance of light.
Charles Groffman claims he will have
the most beautiful drug store i'll the
state and present appearances bear him
ont.
The second floor is laid out into offices,
The offices fronting on Eighth street
have been let. Schenian d Kelley have
the corner offices, the waiting room hav-
ing an opening into each. An addition
al room is to be used as library and
for the clerk. These gentlemen have
such pleasant quarters there is danger
they will spend too much time in felici-
tating themselves on their pleasant sur
roundings. Doctors Thurtell and Meany
have the suite of rooms adjoining and
to the south. They are laid out similar
to those of the two lawyers, An of
flee at the head or the stairs will prob
ably be occupied by Mr.. Williams as a
private Office.
The building is supplied with not and
cold water. There is not modern con-
yenience which is lacking. Its cost Is

THE building which Thomas Windi-
ate is putting up ON his property where
the Plank road and the Mishicott road
meet, will be among the best i'll the city.
1t is a double building, the upper floors
TO be used as flats 1t is triangular in
appearance having openings toward both
roads. The rear building is to be used
as a store with the novel effect of having
two opposite entrances each with plate
glass. The front store has also two en-
frances with light from every side ex-
cept the rear 1t is separated from the
rear store by hall which opens into
both stores The building Is being built
substantially. having stone basement
two feet thick and heavy brick walls
with air spaces. The place is very favor,
ably located for business, as fully one
half the farmers who make Manitowoc
their market pass its doors. The build
ing when completed will cost about =,

They had met at Anton Walterbachs sa-

of cards which resulted in quarrel. In
the struggle Hake had his cheek bitten

Hake went to Albert Schneider's saloon

Walterbach's Trossen also had bust

would find Hake there Fearing he
might meet him he put a stone in his
handkerchief which was to serve as a
sling in case uhe should be attacked.
When he entered Schneiders saloon
Hake was there and the row was started
at once. Hake was struck first on the
arm by the sling and then on the head.
The latter for a time appeared to be
quite serious but no i'll results will fol-

THE old charge is again afioat that
farmers are not coming to Manitowoc
because higher prices are being paid else
where. And the elevators are held re-
sponsible for this condition. The proper
thing for businessmen to do is to ascer-
tain the truth of this report before Civ,
ing it currency. If it is true some steps
should be taken ut once for correction.
But its truth or falsity should be ut once
established The best way of doing this
will at once suggest itself to any one de
sirous of learning the truth.
Let the businessmen hold meeting
and appoint committee to make thor
ough investigation of the matter. This
can be done quickly and with less ex
pense of labor than is involved in circu
lating the report, If the report is true

JUDGE THOMAS of the United States
court recently rendered a decision which
is particularly pleasing to brewers in this
country 1t will be remembered that u
rush was made for beer stamps when a
law was enacted cutting off the y per
cent rebate on stamps purchased by
brewers The rush was for the purpose
of purchasing stamps before the Presi-
dent signed the bill. The Treasury De
partment decided that stamps purchased
on the day the bill was signed were not
subject to rebate and collected the amount
which had been allowed. The Brewers
Association brought suit and won the
case. Several thouHsnG dollars will be
refunded the brewers by the government.
