ALEX LIADiHL IS ENDORSED
FIRST WARDERS WANT HIM ON
THE BOARD OF PUBLIC
WORKS T.
Former Alderman Promises Not to
Fire Any One, if Appointed, and
Will Keep the Streets of the First
Ward Clean.

Former Aid. Lindahl was for
board of public works at a mass meet
ing of First warders held last evening
at Sjoberg's haH> on Payne avenue, and
a committee will call on Mayor Kiefer
today to urge the claims of the First
ward candidate.
The meeting was called to order by
A. G. Johnson, who headed the citi-
zens' committee that issued the call.
The hall was fairly we'll filed, and Mr..
Johnson looked around With a pleased
expression. I'm order that the papers
won't say that there are only fifteen
people here I am going to appoint a
committee to make a count" he said
The count consumed about twenty
minutes, and the result was not an
nounced. Apparently it satisfied the
chairman, because he stated the pur-
pose Of the meeting, which he said was
to select candidate on behalf of the
ward for one of the vacancies on the
board of public works
In response to a call for nominations
DR.. Robillard placed Alex Lindahl in
nomination with a glowing speech, and
incidentally limited that his own nomi-
IIc,IlOH LII IlSdllu COMMISSIONER would
not be taken amiss.
Second the nomination." shouted
some one, and then a man made a
speech in Swedish. When he had con-
cluded somebody else moved that the
nominations be closed, and there was
another motion to make it unanimous.
''It won't do to make it unanimous"
said Chairman Johnson. 1--WE had bet
ter ballot, so that every one can see
that we are perfectly fair"
Then tellers were appointed and
passed down the aisles tearing off tick
cts from long strips, each Of which
bore the name Of Lindahl.
The result, as announced, gave Lin
dahl 100; John Copeland, 5; Henry Neff,
5. and Aid. Bloomquist g Those
who did not vote for Lindahl had to
write in the names Of their candidates
and scratch out his.
The announcement of the vote was
vociferously applauded, and Mr.. Lin
dahl made little speech in which he
said that if appointed he did not In
tend to fire any Of the present appoint
ees Of the board, but would see that the
streets in the First ward were kept
clean and in good shape.
On motion the chair was authorized
to appoint a committee Of ten to wait
on the mayor today.

FIGHT MAY BE RENEWED.
Merriam Park People Don't Want to
Lose the Park Guards

Merriam Park People Don't Want to
Lose the Park Guards.
An old national guard fight will quite likely
be renewed on account of an order issued
by Adjt Gen. Lambert yesterday transferring
Company e, Fourteenth regiment, from its
quarters at Merriam Park to the down town
Armory building The company has always
been distinctively a Merriam Park organiza-
ton, and the Merriam Park people have al
ways taken great pride in the company.
While quite a percentage of the members
OF the company live down town, they rep
resent those who Joined the company after
war was declared The original roster of the
company shows that nearly half of the COM
pany lived in Minneapolis and the rest at
Merriam Park. The down town members are
for the most part the recruits or those
who became members of the company after
the order had been received to recruit the
company up to a war basis.
Just before the company took the field in
the war with Spain there was q bitter fight
on the same proposition. There were at
the time few of the company who lived
down town and found it quite inconvenient
to attend the regular drills at Woodruff s
hall. The matter, however, blew over and
nothing was done, as the company was as
signed to active service, and this overshad-
owed all other considerations.
A short time ago at meeting it was de-
cided to consent to the change. Col. Van
Duzee had suggested that it might be done,
and Capt. Holmes agreed to It. However
many Of the Merriam Park boys were not
present, and the change was made. The COM
panyS baggage was transferred to the Sixth
street armory, and Adjt Gen. Lamberts or
der authorizing the change followed. The
argument which is used in favor Of the
change is that but few q the old members
OF the company are now in the organization.
1t is also argued that the company takes a
good slice Of the city's appropriation to
maintain it's quarters at the Park, and this
should be directed for the use of the armory,
as the amount appropriated by the council
is not adequate to maintain the armory build
ing. Merriam Park people feel highly in
to lose the company

the new rules which are to
govern the International races for the Sewan-
ahka cup next summer. In substance they
are much the same as the ones that we're
agreed upon last year. And the main points
IN which they differ from them are that the
challenger and challenged clubs desire as
far as possible, under the existing measure
ment rule. to prevent the extreme develop
ment OF the more Objectionable features Of
form in yachts heretofore constructed in
reference to competition for the challenge
cup. To this end they have agreed upon
certain restrictions which In the main are
as follows: The overall length must not
exceed 30 feet inches; the deck must show
fair curve from transom to stern, and the
sides of the deck or the gunwales must meet
together at the TEN. which must be the
longitudinal center line of the vessel The
angle between the gunwales and the longi-
tudinal center line must not exceed 80 de-
grees.
1t has also been decided that the draught
of the boats shall not exceed five feet and
with the center board down six.

CARTER AND DREYFUS.
Attorney Blair Says Their Cases Are
Similar.

CHICAGO, Sept S0--At;orney Frank P
Blair, who assisted in defending Capt
Carter, was visibly affected As he read
the Washington dispatch announcing that
President Mckinley had approved the
finding of the court martial He exclaim-
ed:
ITS an outrage It's equal to the
Dreyfus case. This is the first intimation
L had of the approval of the president. I
see this is an Associated Press dispatch
and guess 1t must be true. The case is
now beyond legal intervention, as the YER
dict stands and cannot be changed. NV
opinion Of, the matter never has changed
and l think never will. 1t was a con-
Sp1racy the court-martial Willfully and
fagrantly disobeyed the law. Testimony
which should never, have been admit. d
Was accepted, and that which was clearly
Capt. Garter was convicted on pc. jur
ed testimony, as the defense clearly
proved. Dreyfus was condemned on hear
say Wherein lies the difference? The
principal witness for the prosecution was
easily caught in the Characterization.
and yet lie was allowed to go on, and on
his testimony alone, Capt. Carter was
condemned. This injustice to an inno-
cent man shows. thataths court-martial
was utterly unfit to gfapple with the
questions involved in a case of this kind.
''In my estimation, q majority of tie
members of the court-martial were hon
est in their belief of Carriers guilt. They
were induced to find the captain guilty in
the main because of perjured testimony
of the government Witnesses
