Auditor Johnson intimates that there
viii be no changes in his staff, but much
pressure is being brought to bear to have
Fred Bayer, one OF his men, ousted un-
der the charge that he did dirty work
in the Eighth ward and solicited votes
for Mr.. Johnson's opponent, Louis Betz.
They say he is a Kieferite, and at the
bidding of that gentleman attempted to
knife Johnson because of an old mayor
ality score. Chief Deputy Assessor S. B.
Carter, whose job Bayer at one time COW
eted, is making the charges against him.
Carter contends that In the event Of Mr..
Betzs election Bayer was to have the
cIIef deputysEip, and he brings ]. c. Nc
Carthy, an Eighth ward Republican
worker to prove his statements.
County Auditor Johnson. In speaking
of the matter yesteT@ay afternoon, said:
"a number of my friends have come to
me with accusations against Bayer for
disloyalty to me and the party. but
must have absolute proof before I shall
act.
Despite Mr.. Johnson's apparent reluct-
ance to accept the rumors now going the
rounds, some of the Office force are not
a bit backward in handling Bayer's name.
The impression about the court house
Is that shaking up will result. 1t is
hardly possible that MT. Johnson VIII
make another run for the office he now
nous, and old scores in consequence viii
be paid off in full
In the office of abstract clerk to which
Mr. J. =. Schulze was reelected, there is
little possibility of change in the staff.
Albert Schulze and George Coulter COM
pose the working force, and their long
connection with the Office makes them
of considerable value to Mr.. Schulze.
--sked yesterday as to this fact, he re-
fused to talk, but the inference given
was sufficient.
The new register of deeds, N. W. F1tz-
gerald, will not appoint deputy, but
will do the work himself. The balance
q the working force, however, will see
radical changes, the nature of which Mr..
Fitzgerald at present refuses to dfvulge.
nno will take Mr.. Fitzgeraid's place
in the office of clerk OF the district court
no one at present knows 1t Is init
mated, however, that the new man will
not come from the present working force,
but will be an outsider.
Rumor has 1t that Phil Haas is to De

Charles ReichOw is also mentioned for
the place, the idea being that his fealty
to Justus in the convention shall be SO
rewarded.

WATER BOARD Is ALERT duluth Holds ITS Own
WILL TAKE STEPS TO PREVENT
ANY FURTHER ELEC-
TROLYSIS
HELLO COMPANY SUSPECTED
Circumstances Indicate That 1t Has
Reen Lax In It's Establish
ment of Return Wire
Connections.

The water board is determined to
protect the thousands of dollars invested
IN the cityS water system.
Any attempt to use water connections
for transmitting electrical currents for
any purpose whatever will be steadily
followed, step by step, until there is no
longer danger that the water mains may
some day be found in a crumbling and
ruined state through the slow but power
full means of electrolysis. The street
railway company have acknowledged the
evidence against them to be conclusive.
Evidence is now being collected against
the telephone companies for the same
purpose and it seems as IL the quest has
been at length successful OF else some
lengthy explanation will be necessary to
account for the curious facts that are
in the possession of the superintendent of
the water board.
The first inkling of the case in question
was found in the report Of a plumber,
Charles Schiller, who brought the atten-
ton of the secretary of the board 10
the fact that he had put three stems on
the ball cock of the closet tank at the
residence of 0. h Osmundsen, 224 Penn
sylvania avenue, three times during
the last three months and that
although he had put on brass stem
each time he was called to replace it and
he found the metal so completely decorn-
posed that the stem had not been strong
enough to stand the pressure in the lit
tie tank of water. One odd fact is the
bright glossy state Of the sides of the
tank appearing almost as if the inside
had been recently plated
The facts point to the supposition that
the water is a veritable electric bath
and Just what electrical connections have
been made with it remains to be seen.
While the current, which is ordinarily
employed for speaking purposes, is rather
insignificant, as much can not be said
of the dynamo currents which send cur
rents powerful enough to ring a. bell at Il
distance Of more than ten miles.
Secretary Caulfield of the water board,
has asked City Engineer Claussen to as
sist him in an investigation of the cir
cumstances. Supt. Linquist, of the water
department, VIII represent that body.
Corporation Attorney Markham has not
yet completed his investigation of the le-
gal side of the charges, which have been
made against the street railway COM
panies,, bearing on the same subject.

The Eighth ward Just now IS filled
with feathers and, 4 the Republican
pie-seebers in that baliwicK continue to
peck at each other, certain street com-
missioners will have to clean up.
A meeting was held last night in Jes-
rang's hall, University and Harrington, by
the precinct committe aTuen of the ward.
The meeting was for the avowed purpose
of settling the affairs OF the ward club,
of Endorsing candidates for positions in
Phil Justus' shop, and Of having certain
rufnors pertaining to fred Bayer of the
county auditors office, thoroughly venti-
lated.
When the meeting vas { allied to order

cludins every one excep- committeeman
from the hall. Three newspaper men
came around later, and We're turned cut
because trouble was locked for and it
would be embarrassing 80 have any one
around inclined to be 'peraiciously act
i've" Another resolution not to give
out any information must have been
passed at the close Of the meeting, for
all the committeeman were profoundly
ignorant of what was said at the meet
ing
This much is known: The routine bus
mess was transacted first, after. Which h
Walter Boyd stood up and made a
speech advocating harmonious working
said that he did not heiave in having
whole families installed in office, and
that discretion should be used In future
Endorsements and appointments.
The speech seemed to have the effect
Of soothing syrup for The moment, for
TO all accounts the standing grudge be-
tween Fred Bayer and Chief Deputy As
SCISSOR s. e. Carter was not even men
toned, not even by the two men them
selves, who were both present at the
meeting.
The matter of chief deputyships for
the sherlf's office was not long in COM
ing Up. The Eighth ward is very mod
est. 1t only has seven candidates, as
follows: Henry Lang, Walter Boyd,
Herman Manteuffel, NJ. +. IIallowell, Don
c. Campbell, Frank EubanK and c. II
Tucket. Much eloIuence, help-my- man
eloqucnce, soon made the walls of Jess
rang.s hall ring. It took very little kick
ing ard scra tching to make the dust
andsIea Tiers fly, and as the only way
out of the bitter warning Of the factions
1t was proposed to take a ballot on the
seven candidates, and agree upon zone
or two or three" for Endorsements. Some
half dozen ballots were taken, but
even then no agreement could be reach
ed,z and motion for adjournment pre-
vailed
It@as great surprise 20 everybody
that neither Bayer nor carter did any
talking. They glared. at each other, but
let It so at that. Carter Who has been
a leader in the Eighth ward for some
time claims that Bayar tried TO get
his job last spring, ana for that reason
hee5has grudge He also claims that
Bayer worked for Betz this election.
Bayer of course denies i'll toto.
The ward is all torn up If this had not
been the case, some agreement could
have been reached last night and zone or
two or three men indorsed.

CIBITU AND CAGAYEN.
Purchase of the Islands Is Up to
Congress.


WASHINGTON Nov. s.-Because the
cession of the islands of Cibitu and Ca
gayen of the Philippine archipelago must
be ratified by the senate of the United
States, the officials of the state depart
nent positively decline to discuss the
transfer, which was referred to by tie
Spanish premier. Still the fact is not
concealed, and was sent out In these dis
patches about two months ago, that the
transfer has been arranged as far as the
executive branch Of our government
could effect 1t.
The state department officials regard
the islands as necessary to complete
American sovereignty in the archt-
pelago. Lying as they do to the south
west OF. the group of islands and in one
of the most important channels Of CON-
munication, it would be in the eye OF the
department a most dangerous course to
allow them to fall into the hands of an
other power and thus constitute a per-
manent menace to American sovereignty
in the Philippines. There were excluded
from the original cession by the geo
graphical boundaries laid down in the
treaty. .--.

BISHOP Potter ON LABOR.
New York Episcopal PreIate Before
Industrial Commission.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.-Bishop Henry
G. Potter, of New York, testified today
before the industrial commission. He
spoke on sweatshOps, arbitration and
other questions. He said he had more
confidence in voluntary organizations 10
meet evils that grow out of the sweat
shop system than in legislation He ad-
vocated a commission to mediate between
capitalists and labor organizations. He
was disinclined to favor compulsory arbf-
tration. With reference to the recent an
thracite coal strike the bishop was asked
for his remedy for differences where en-
ployers absolutely reject every attempt
at mediation with employees, especially
where the public at large would suffer
from the cessation Of operations incident
to the dispute.
II know no cOercive measures that L
could recommend to meet such a condi-
tion," the bishop replied Compulsory
arbitration, he conceded, was less an
evil than long strike or lockout. La
Dor, he said, is not well rewarded vol
unfairly by any one. That was the key
note of the labor question.
