L. A. w. HEADQUARTERS
VIII Probably Be Removed From
Boston to New York.

NEW YORK. Feb. Pot Is stated on
excellent authority that the national
headquarters of the League of American
Wheelmen will probably be removed from
Boston to New York. The removal will
bring TO New York the official organ of the
league the L. A. w. Bulletin. 1t is stat
ed. also, that the incorporation of the
league under a special charter is contem-
plated. Such a step has long been de-
sired by the wheelmen in order that the
league may afford more adequate protec-
ton to its members, and may receive and
disburse money in its own name. The
state of Massachusetts, is averse to grant
ing such special charters, and, in order to
obtain one, it is necessary, or, at least,
advisable, to remove the league head
quarters to another state. Delaware, Wiz
ginia and New York have been mention
ed. In the two former special charters
may be had for the asking. New York,
however, is much more desirable than
either. from other standpoints, while the
league does not despair Of obtaining a
charter from the legislature of this state.

MR.. WELCOME CALLED.
When Mr.. Day was excused John B.
Welcome was called. He, next. to C. w.
Clark, was Mr.. Clark's chief representa-
tive in Helena during the session Of the
legislature last winter. Mr.. Welcome
said he had gone to Helena to be one of
Mr.. Clark's managers, at the request OF
the friends of the senator, but that the
senator knew nothing himself of the ar
rangement until after 1t was made
Mr.. Welcome detailed his version Of
his various interviews with Mr.. White
side. He said that at one Of these meet
ings Mr.. Whiteside had told him that
Senator Anderson would vote for Mr..
Clark. and he had merely expressed his
told him that he was friendly to Clark,
and intended to vote for him.
HE did not, however, take any part in
advocating Mr.. Clarks election except
to myself" said the witness.
Whiteside had been introduced to him
by either C. w. Clark or Mr.. Nefll.
Whiteside had then told him that he was
tired of his utilization with the Daily fac
ton. Many people had warned him
against Whiteside. but his uniform reply
was: "He can do no harm; IL he does
not vote for Mr.. Clark we will lose moth
ing; If he does, we will gain something.
He had never authorized Whiteslde. he
said, to see other members Of the legis-
lature. nor had he offered or given him
$4,000, nor any other sum, as bride for
his vote He had not authorized White
side to offer Senator Anderson $4,000 for
his vote, nor had he said he would pay
more for that senator's vote.
st have no recollection he said, "of
having asked Whiteside to go to see Mr..
Anderson In Clarks behalf, but I might
possibly have done SO If he had expressed
a willingness"
Nor had he told Whiteside that he had
secured Senator Connelly's vote, and that
the latter was the cheapest man of the
lot"
He never paid Mr.. Connolly anything to
influence his vote.

BEAUTIES OF JAPAN
SpIendidIy illustrated Before Cam
era and Commercial Clubs.

Otis A. Poole, Of Yokohama, Japan,
took the members of the st. Paul Camera
club and the members of the Commercial
club on trip through the land of the
geisha last night. 1t was not a guide
book trip by any means that the large
audience in the Commercial club parlors
were treated to, for the excellent lantern
slides shown contained no hackneyed sub
jects, and the lecture was replete with
interesting bits of information not to be
found in any guide book. The pictures
had been colored by japanese artists.
Their work being decidedly artistic.
While geisha girls smiled for brief sec
ond from the canvas; while flowers, the
magnolia, the tea rose chrysanthemums
and cherry blossoms nodded, almost diff
fusing perfume; while glimpses Of the
dainty tea houses, charming bits of seem
cry, the quaint little people were given,
Mr.. Poole told about the country and its
condition since Its war with China The
Japanese, he thought, were given too
much credit for progressiveness and
observation-disclosures. These traits were su-
perficial. Instead of regulations against
foreigners becoming more relaxed, the
reverse was true. A recent ruling of the
minister of education prevented boys who
had attended missionary schools from
holding government positions. The hold
ing or land by foreigners was made diff
cult by many restrictions. The railroads
of the country were owned partly by, pri-
vate concerns and partly by the govern
ment. The former were the most desir-
able to ride on. The pictures ended with
a series showing Japanese beauty in
many charming poses.
Mr.. Poole Is an honorary member of
the ST. Paul Camera club. and the lecture
last night was complimentary to the club
and its friends. The lecturer was intro
dueed by W. 3. Johnson.

Yesterday and Is Improved

much of his time at the bedside Of his
wife, who lies dangerously i'll at st. Jo-
seph's hospital. Mrs. Bixby was brought to

ported considerable better last night
Mr.. Bixby had made preparations to &c
to Washington, on official business, but
was called home to Red Wing by Mrs.
Bixby's illness.
He reports Indian territory in the
height of good times, and Is busy making
treaties with the Indians. The presen,
policy of the government toward the red
man of the territory is that of segrega.
ton rather than common ownership. In
other words, the new treaties that are
now being, made deal with the Indians
as individuals rather than tribes. and
every man is given an allotment of land,
which he may make his home and culti-
vate if so disposed.
Last year Mr.. Bixby made treaties with
the Creeks and Cherokees, but the last
congress failed to ratify the instruments,
and, as q consequence, he had to GO
through the same motions a second time.
At present he is negotiating with three
other tribes, the Chickasaws, Choctaws
and Seminoles.
AS soon as it is possible for him to get
away he will proceed to Washington and
p1 esent to the interior department few

KNoTTy LAWSUIT
Over Mortgage Notes Placed 40 Rick
els Defunct Hank

els Defunct Hank
Judge Brooks, Of Minneapolis, yester-
day took UP a complicated piece of litiga-
ton arising out Of certain mortgage notes
for $1,000. which were turned over to the
Minnesota Savings Bank Of st. Paul, and
which were disposed of by w. F. Bickel,
president of the bank before its failure.
Mr. Bickel and number OF others claim
an interest in the notes and the land on
which the mortgage was given. State Sem
ator Hiram F. Stevens says 1t is one of
the most peculiar cases he has ever been
called upon to try, as an interest has
first to be established before the mort
gage can be foreclosed
The title of the case is Jacob Esch. adj
ministrator Of James j. Kelley, deceased,
against John B. St. Aubin, Lious Dion
and Max Nusser ct al.
In addition to Senator Stevens, there
are also employed Senator Sheehan, Of
Dixon & Sheehan, and Humphrey Bar
ton, and A. H. Noyes, of Minneapolis.
The notes and mortgages in question were
placed with the bank by st. Aubin as
security for loan, and they were after
wards Endorsed over to the bank. Owing
to the number of parties Joined in the
suit, 1t will be exceedingly difficult to
unravel the knotty points involved.
