RIVAL PLANS CLASHED
COMMERCIAL CLUB DIRECTORS
ATILT ON AUDITORIUM PLANS,

Edward Feldhauser precipitated g.
small-sized riot at yesterdays meeting
OF the board of directors of the CONNER
clal club. His auditorium scheme Was.
as result, considerably out of favor.
Every one at the meeting agreed that
st. Paul needed a new auditorium bad
enough, but all could not see the merit
or Mr. Feldhauser's plan
b. F. Beardsley opined that the city
needed an auditorium. and needed one
badly, and there he stopped.
John Caulield went further and ouae-
toned the policy of choosing the old
market house. He asserted that when the
Commercial club went before the city
council and urged the remodeling of the
building into library it had been dis
tinctly understood that the propertv
should remain in the control Of the coun-
Gil. Mr.. Feldhauser thought this was not
true
President Pruden said the time had
come when an auditorium should he
built although .he was not committed to
the Feldhauser plan. Mr.. Feldhauser
afterwards said privately that he thought
the block bounded by Ninth Tenth. Min
nesota and Cedar street could be covered
by bridge construction, and the audi
torium placed over a sheltered market
thus killing two birds with one stone.
Inc directors nnally adopted the follow
ing resolution:
Resolved, That committee Of nine be
appointed to sound public sentiment az
to the wisdom of having an audjtori,,no
built" ILL
The committee, when 1t Is named. will
proceed to canvass public opinion. and
probably call public meeting as soon as
the sentiment of the citizens has been
more clearly revealed to them.
The club will be glad to receive COM
munications from citizens on the subject

EAGLE IN TIKI HOSPITAL
YOUNG CANDIDATE WHO WAS IN
JURED IS NOT LIKELY
TO DIE
NAME is BENNo, A BARTENDER
Wound In the Nature of q Pistol
Shot, Not, However, In
hictcd by Fire
Arm.

Despite the subterfuges resorted to by
members of the Order OF Eagles, 1t de-
veloped yesterday that the young man
who was so painfully injured while be-
ing initiated into the lodge Tuesday night,
as told in the G o b e of yesterday, was
Fred Benno, a bartender employed at
the saloon formerly kept by John Navra-
TIL, at 1872 Wabasha street, instead of y.
Morrison" as was given out the night
the young man was hurt. Mr.. Benno I'M
derwent an operation at st. Joseph's hos
pital as a result of the injuries inflicted
upon him, and will be confined for several
days He was resting comfortably last
evening, and unless complications should
set in his recovery is assured.
The injury to Mr.. Benno was in the
nature Of a pistol shot, though not in
f1icted by flrearm. Part of the initia-
ton rites Of the Order of Eagles consists
In placing blindfolded candidate over
barrel and 'walloping'' him with a clap
stick. In the stick used is place for
blank cartridge that eXplodes when the
stick smites the reclining candidate.
While Mr.. Benno was undergoing this
ordeal the Eagle welding the stick made
several wild passes without exploding
the cartridge. Another impetuous men,
Der, who is said to have been one of
the first prominent officers of the lodge,
seized the stick and struck Benno a re-
sounding whack. In his excitement, how
ever, the eXecutioner turned the clap
stick the wrong way, and the part con-
tanning the cartridge was faced toward
the victim. When the blow fell the cart
ridge exploded. The wadding and pow
der tore through Mr. Benno's clothing
and inflicted a painful wound several
inches long. The wadding buried itself
in the flesh. and the young man tainted
from the shock and pain. The accident
put a temporary stop to the Initiation
exercises, and DR.. E. II. Whitcomb, who
is physician for the order, sent for the
ambulance to take Mr. Benno to the hos
pital. Here the young man was put I'M
der the influence of ether, while the pain

and powder from the wound was con-
Quoted
After the accident members of the or
der were sworn to secrecy about what
had happened, but instead OF maintain
Ing silence about the affair they at once
began inventing false stories to explain
the presence of the ambulance at the
lodge room door and soon succeeded in
stirring up so much excitement and con-
fusion that it was impossible to ascertain
anything like the truth about the acct
dent. Some members claimed a brother
Eagle, whose name they could not re-
member, had been overcome by too free
ly indulging in liquor while others said
a visitor from Minneapolis had tainted
under an attack of heart failure. Secre-
tary Wa1dron gave 1t out that the "sick'
mans name was 81. Morrison" and every
other member of the order approached

MONEY FOR PRISONERS
TWENTY-FIVE DOLLARS MORE
THAN THEY ARE ENTITLED TO.

Assistant Attorney General somerhv
yesterday submitted an opinion to Warden
Reeve, of the state prison at Saltwater.
holding that federal prisoners are not en-
titled to S25 from the state when they are
discharged. The state has repeatedly paid
this money to federal prisoners, and as
the United States statute only provides
for the payment of SIS to prisoners when
discharged, all In excess of that amount
has been loss to the state Further
more, Mr.. SOmerby believes that If the
state paid $25 to federal prisoners under
the state law, the law regarding paroles
should also apply to federal prisoners. To
prevent further confusion in drawing the
line between state and federal prisoners
the opinion was given by Mr.. Somerby
at the request Of the prison board.
