RETURNED THE NOTES.
Defunct Insurance Company Resorts
to Strange Business Methods.

Receiver w. s. Dwinnell, of the Mime
apolis Fire and Marine Mutual Insurance
company, has begun legal proceedings IN
order to discover what has become or
about 100000 of assets supposedly IN the
possession of the directorate of the com
pany at the time it was placed in his
charge. .
The assets in question consisted OF
notes given by certain parties and OF coll
lateral given to secure the notes. Alto
gether they formed what was known as
when advertised as such formed the basis
upon which much business was secured.
Mr.. Dwinnell yesterday began action
to force the directors of the defunct
company to disclose the present where
abouts of the notes and collateral IN
question. The proceedings were had be-
fore Judge Simpson, and resulted last
evening only in statement from the d.
rectors and officers present that the as
advancing them before the concern was
placed in the hands of the receiver.
Mr.. DWinnell made the point that such
a proceeding would a least be in doubt
full taste inasmuch as such fund would
never be more necessary than when the
company was upon the point of failure.
No reply was attempted to this criticism.
Mr.. DWinnell was made receiver OF
the insurance company March last, as
the result of an action brought against
it by the Germania bank, of this city.
The directors yesterday claimed that
they had divided the guaranty fund and
returned it to the individuals in Deem
Der of last year.
Charles S. Spencer, under indictment
for forgery in connection with the affairs
of the company, was its secretary.

Illinois Central Circular.

A circular has been issued by E. H.
Hartman & Co., calling attention to the
present condition of and the prospective
outlook for the Illinois Central road.
This circular says:
THE progressive policy in the manage
as far back as 1887. Realizing that in
successful competition service to the pub
lie counted as much as low rates, it has
not hesitated to make improvements and
extensions in advance of actual require
ments, and results have abundantly jusd-
fed the wisdom of this course. The large
increase in traffic has taxed the road to
its fullest capacity, and to handle this
more economically the equipment is to be
largely increased and the road double
tracked.
1.-THE company has the most direct
route from Chicago to New Orleans, its
roadway following the course of Missis-
sippi river through fiat and easy coun-
try. 1t serves the great wheat, corn and
cattle districts of the Middle states, as
the South. At New Orleans it has ex-
traordinary facilities for the trans
shipment of freight to other ports, and
will benefit largely by any increase in
trade to Central and South America.
The growth in net profits from 81 IT'S, 551
in 1897 to $6,967,e60 in 1901 is due only in
a small degree to increased mileage; the
latter increased S4.6 per cent, while net
profits increased over $50 per- cent, and
this is the more notable when attent on
is directed to the fact that during the
same period the amount spent annually
for maintenance increased from $2,013 to
1892 a road mile. The average in 1900
was 81, AZ while the average on all roads
IN the United States was only $2.03S.
Since 1873 stockholders have each wear
received dividends of at least per cent
per annum. and as high as per cent,
the present rate being 8 per cent"

since which time Miss Gross had lived
with her sister at lit Third street
northeast. 1t is claimed by her brother
in-law that she had been stage struck ,
for long time. She haunted the local
houses and became acquainted with
many actors and often expressed de-
sire to go OH the stage, but never res
cei,ed an opportunity. When "Sapho
was presented here last summer she be-
came acquainted with one of the Lead
ing men, who promised to assist her. The
company later left for Detroit, and the
actor whom she met, left with them,
and she never heard anything more
from him.
This was a great disappointment and
now that. her desire for the stage was
thoroughly aroused, the glare of the
footlights seemed to fascinate her more
and more, and a week ago she decided
to go to Chicago in the hope of securing
an enga cement The only thing that
has been heard of her since she left was
the notice chronicling her arrest.

Referring agan to the ministers who

INTRODUCE A NEW COURSE.
Board of Education to Consider 81
Commercial Course.

The Minneapolis high school will be
asked to introduce a commercial course
in their curriculum next year, and 1t Is
not at all unlikely but what the request
will be granted. Such a plan has been
successfully tried in Chicago, and there
is every reason to believe that 1T would
meet with appreciation here.
For several years past the number
of students who take the classical course
has been growing less, and the same
is true of all the high schools through
out the country; students instead of TAX
ing this course usually go to the com
mercial colleges and finish their studies
at that institution.
While the board do not intend to
abolish the classical course, it is I'M
derstood that they will endeavor to in
stitute new course of study such as
is given in commercial colleges.
Before anything IS recommended, how
ever, they intend to secure detailed re-
port of the work in Chicago, from the
superintendent of schools, and find out
what has been their success.

POOR BUT PROUD.
Has Relatives but Would Not Ask
Their Assistance.

Wrapped in small canvas horse blan-
ket, the body of Charles Flanders was
found in the loft of a barn at the rear
of Sc Western avenue, yesterday morn
ing. Flanders was fifty-five years old,
and had lived in Minneapolis thirty
years.
For many years he was one of the
cha, acters about the market, being a
peddler. The last seen of him he was in
a saloon Sunday afternoon. He conn.,
planned of feeling i'll, and he was urged
to go to the home of his brother, Will
lam c. Flanders, 231S Eleventh avenue
south. But the old man was too proud
to ask for aid, even from his relatives.
and so he crawled into the barn loft.
He was seen there by men around the
barn, and, although they heard him
groan occasionally, they thought it was
only the effects of liquor, and did not
disturb him.
