ing telegram from Acting Secretary of

The war department has not issued
any order whatever rejecting on the Of
ficers of the Fifteenth Minnesota, volun-
teer infantry, but it is understood that
the commanding general of the Second
army corps in reviewing cases laid be-
fore a general court martial, remarked
on facts shown in evidence. The depart
ment has been informed that certain Of
hcerS OF this regiment on the 24th, three
days before the regiment was due to be
discharged, asked to be held in service
and a court Of inquiry convened. Under
the law and ruling Of the department in
like cases the officers cannot be held aft
er the men are discharged, and to hold
the men would be q hardship on them
not warranted by facts presented In
view of this, the department has inform
ed Gen. Young that If Col Leonhauser,
of the regiment, an officer in regular
army, desires a court, one will be con-
vened before which other officers can be
heard and all facts made of record In the
meantime, officers and all men not under
sentence Of court martial will be hon
orably discharged the service as hereto
fore ordered.
No action was taken on the matter In

City Treasurer Voss Here to Secure
Some Needed Legislation.
City Treasurer Fred J. Voss of Du-
luth. Is in the city in the interest of a.
proposed bill to relieve a stringency In
the city finances that, he says, Is bound
to ensue unless his measure is adopted.
He will interview the ST. Louis county
delegation at a caucus to be held this
afternoon.
THE situation as far as Duluth is con-
cerned is very bad" said Mr. Voss last
evening. Some time ago the legislature
passed refunding act which enabled
us to take up all our floating indebted
ness except that which was created by
reason Of street improvements Then
the act prohibits us from Issuing any
bonds or evidences of Indebtedness of
any kind This shuts off the Issuance
Of city orders
Now our larger collections are the
taxes paid in on June 1 and Nov 1, while
the pay rolls and interest on outstanding
bonds has to be paid monthly. The bulk
of the draft will come due In March.
April and May, and with the taxes COM
Ing due not until June l, we shall have
to hold up the pay rolls for probably
three months AS a remedy we propose
to amend the bill to provide for the issue
OF certificates Of indebtedness against the
uncollected taxes. St. Paul has similar

Judge Bunn yesterday took under ad-
visement the case Of A.. J. La Mountain
vs. Jacob Winzred, an action that in
wolves a sevensfoot fence. and all the
concomitants OF a frst-class up to date
neighborhood quarrel. The issues In
volved had become a cause celebre in
municipal court.
According to the plaintiff who lives on
st. Anthony avenue, near Arundel, the
defendant, who lives next door caused
In July last a high board fence to be
erected between the lots that entirely
shut off his light. This he AYERS was done
through spirit of malice and he sues to
recover $l50 and to have the fence re-
moved.
On the other hand Winzred declares
that 1T was necessary for him to have
the fence put up because he had been
much annoyed by the La Mountain family,
who caused innumerable heart burnings
by calling the defendant and his family
names and making insinuating remarks
to them and picking and attempting to
pick quarrels with defendant, his family
and his tenants"
On the stand yesterday Winzred and
his daughter Mary testified with much
warmth to the alleged iniquitous
practices of their Objectionable neigh
bors, who they said made faces across
the fence, allowed their children to run
around the lot and threw dirty dish water
and things over the dividing line.
The matter came up in municipal court
some time ago when La Mountain caused
Winzred's arrest on a charge of violating
an ordinance in the erection of his fence
1t was discovered however. that the or
dinance only related to fencing on the
frontage and not to erections on dividing
lines.
