Indications are that Company K, of
the First Minnesota national guards,
stationed in this city, will lose it's cap
tain, and the boys feel deeply depressed
over the matter. Capt. E. NJ. Conrad,
who agreed to accept the eaptaincy Of
the company after strong pressure had
been brought to bear upon him, and
took the company to the recent encamp-
ment at Lake City, stated at a meeting
held Thursday evening that he would re-
sign, having decided to live in st. Paul,
where he is interested in the wholesale
cigar establishment owned. by his IA
Their. Few officers in the regiment stand
higher in the estimation of guardsmen
than does Mr.. Conrad, and because of
his ability as soldier and his gentle
manly qualities in dealing with his sub
ordinates, the boys of Company K are
10th to see him go. In case he does not
reconsider his action Lieut. w B. Bur
bingham will probably be called upon to
accept the captainey.
