House TALKS ALL DAY
Manner OF Caring for Insane
Discussed but No ConcIu- #
sion Reached.
FOR TAXING OF CORPORATIONS
Senate Agrees to the House
Amendments to the Som
ervilles Bill.

ST. PAUL, March S.-The house spent
practically the entire day in discussing
the care of tho insane, but ct the hour
Of adjournment no conclusion had been
reached. While there were two bills
under consideration the question turned
upon the adoption of policy for the
care of the insane, either for the county
system or for the continuation of the
system already in existence.
The two bills were special order and
were scheduled as follows: H. F. $50,
Grondahl, to provide for the care of
chronic insane by counties; H. F. 26O,
Staples, to locate the first district state
hospital for insane at Anoka and to &C.
quire, site and locate the second dis
trict state hospital for insane at Hast
ings, and to appropriate money therefor.
Grondlahl Opens the Debate.
Mr.. Grondahl, after the bill had been
read, started in with his argument. At
noon he had been talking only 40 min
utes and recess was taken to o'clock.
Immediately after recess Mr.. Grondahl
again took the floor and spoke for two
hours. '.r ."".
Mr.. Grondahl contended that there
was something radically wrong with the
present system of caring for the insane
in Minnesota. The trouble was not
with the management Of the institu-
tions, but of the system which crowded
the patients into buildings which were
built to accommodate but half the
number.
Mr.. Stivers Of Crow Wing and Sta
pies of Dakota followed Mr.. Grondahl
in opposition to the bill.

UP TO THE GOVERNOR.

senate COnCurS in House Amendments TO
tho somerville Bill.
The Somerville bill to tax foreign cor
porations occupied most of the morning
session of the senate. When the bill
was reported back from the house with
various amendments Senator Somerville
moved that the amendments be read,
and then moved that the senate concur
with the amendments. He explained
them in detail and stated that they did
not change the spirit or scope of the bill
materially, being largely in the way Of
criticism on his English. Senator Hor-
ton opposed the motion and favored
sending it to conference. Its author
protested against such q course and his
motion that the senate concur was
adopted. The bill was then passed, Al
to 8, tho nays being Senators Dart,
Hawkins, Horton, McGill, Potter, Sny-
der, Stockton and Stockwell.
On motion of Senator Baldwin Of Du-
luth the appointments to the state game
and fish commission were confirmed.
Warden Wolfer's Salary Raised.
The finance committee made q favor
able report on the bill increasing the
salary of Warden Wolfer to a 900 with
house rent, lights and fuel, and the
Thompson bill increasing the appropria-
ton for the state high schools to $1,000
per year. The bill carries an annual
appropriation of $lO5,OOO, and was
passed later.
The bill to establish a state park at
Leech lake was also reported favorably.
The committee on game laws recon-
mended the passage Of the Roverud bill
requiring .non-residents to pay license
fee of $25 and residents fee of 81, for
hunting or fishing in the state.
+, The committee on railroads recon-
mended the passage of the Mcneil
house bill requiring railroad companies
to furnish free transportation both
ways to shippers with one Car of live
stock. 49, .,. ~
DO Passed Score of Bills.
Of the 20 or more bills passed in the
senate many were of local nature.
Among the measures were: ...' r.,

To provide for custodian Of public
documents and supplies in the Office of

1t is more than probable that stems
will be taken, either at to-nfght,s
meeting or some meeting in the near
future, to provide furniture for the
new city hall.
The city offices own no furniture ex-
cept such as is in the clerks Office at
present, which consists of two old
chairs and a couple of desks. 1t is
llkely that the floors of all the new
rooms and halls in the buildings will
be carpeted and this, with furnitnre

PECULIAR CASE.
MeSteffield Did Not Retail L.
0lJOr.

The cese against George Westerfield
In the federal court yesterday was q
peculiar one.
Westerfield was tried and acquitted
for retailing liquor without license and
the foundation for the indictment goes
to show on what an unstable footing
an Indictment may be based even by q
federal grand jury.
Some time ago Westerfeld, who is
station agent at Dryden, saw an sd-
vertisement in one Of the papers,
whereby distiller offered to sell
dozen quarts of fine old wtiskey at a
reasonable price.
The agent and rsl of his friends,
after talking the matter over de-
c1ded to club in and buy case of the
liquor. They did so and after it came
had high old time. so it is said.
The agent was after wards indicted
Tor retailing liquor without license, but
the court ruled that the status did not
apply to such cases and the jury ac-
quilted Westerield.

NO FUNDS ON HAND
10 Pay Off United States
Court Jurors and
Witnesses.
A BIG HOWL WENT UP
When Those Who Had Come a Long
Way From Home to Attend
Court Found That They We're Not
to be Paid Other
Court Matters

The hundreds of persona cited to at
| tend the present term of the United
States court in this city or jurors an6
| witnesses are all cut up at present be.
cause OF the fact that the marshal has
no funds on hand to pay them off.
Some Of these persons came long
distance to attend court and few OF
mand to expend for the homeward
journey.
AS each was discharged he was Civ
en- certificate from the clerk for the
amount OF time served and told to take
it to the marshal. The marshal then
issued an order for the money, but ex-
planned that he had no funds on hand
to pay Oft the men.
1t generally costs about $4,000 to
defray the expense of single term of
the federal court in this city and the
marshal makes requisition in advance
for such money as will be required by
him to pay off witnesses and Jurors.
He made thesrequisition as usual, but
for some reason the money has not vet
arrived.
From $40 to 800 each is due the wit
nesses and jurors. They are allowed 5
cents per mile for the distance travelled
by them to attend court and owing to
the magnificent distances of this dis
tr1ct many OF them come q long way
and it costs good sized sum to get
them back home.
1t is not known just what steps will
be taken to relieve the situation, but
it is probable that some bank will come
to the rescue and cash the orders.
At any rate it does not appear al
together fair that persons brought
here to attend court should be stranded
IN the town as soon as Uncle Sam has
finished with them.
GRAND JURY DISCHARGED.
The federal grand jury completed it's
