WIELDS SHARP AXlST. PAUL ALL AGOG|
City Engineer Sublette Fires Six of
His Men.
THEY'RE ACCUSED OF DISLoYALTY
Street Engineer Fox Has Been In
the Department Seventeen
Years-But He Goes.

The long-expected ak fell in the city en-
glneers department Saturday, when
City Engineer Sublette gave the follow
ing members Of his staff formal notice that
he would not need their services during
his second administration:
W. NJ. Fox, street engineer; William
Amy, craftsman in the sewer department;
Denny Bow, rodman; Raymond Fox, level
man; August Reed, timekeeper in the
sewer department.
w. M. Fox is asked for his resignation,
to take effect April l. The others will
close their connection with the depart
ment Feb. l. In addition, Walter Walsh,
levelman. received notice that he Is laid
off indefinitely.
cussing the reasons for the changes in his
department. They have been in contem-
platton for some time.
No Politics In 1t.
There was positively no politics In 1t,
he declared. Walsh is a democrat and the
son Of Matt Walsh, the retiring street
commissioner of the sixth ward, and a
noted warhorse. The others, so far as
known, are OF republican faith The main
reason for the change, the city engineer
frankly says, Is that he is convinced that
the men have not been as loyal to him
during the past two years as they ought
to have been.
Gave Them q Trial.
Promptly on his accession he accepted
the staff left to him by his predecessor,
Mr.. Cappelen, stoutly resisted all at
tempts made from aldermanic and other
sources to make changes in the depart
ment, and determined to give every man
there full opportunity to prove his right
to continue in the city's service
Many times during his term he has felt
that he was not getting full hearted sup
port from certain of his force.
All Of the discharged men served
throughout Mr.. Cappelens administration
and most Of them came down from Mr..
Rinker's day. Street Engineer Fox has
been in the department for seventeen
years, and none Of the others hardly less
than half that time. Their places will be
filled in part by promotion, Mr.. Sublette
says, and in part by new men.
The resignation Of Stanley Bezoier will
make still another vacancy in the depart
ment on Feb. /. Bezoier has been in the
city engineers Office for the past ten years
and retires now to accept place as one
OF County Auditor Scott's deputies.

A PECULIAR MOVE
Jurymen Ask a New Trial for a Man
They Have Convicted.

A meddlesOme majority of a jury put
Judge Simpsons good nature to a rather
severe test last Saturday. Ten members
of the body which tried Simon Brooks for
grand larceny submitted a petition ask
ing that the prisoner be granted new
trial. The men, of course, being unversed
In law, were scarcely so much to blame as
the attorney who secured their signatures.
Judge Simpson denied the motion and took
occasion to remark that the jury had no
right to make such request after bring
ing in verdict for conviction.

There Are No Watchmen for Public
Schools.

Schools.
Burglars are operating on the North
Side among a number Of the schools Of
that locality. During the past week the
North Side high school, the Logan school,
the Franklin and the Hawthorne schools
were entered and in every instance the
thieves tapped the telephone toll boxes,
securing about $40 in each case. At the
North Side high school $18 was taken from

There are no watchmen at the public
schools. Rarely do the janitors remain In
the building over night and entrance can
be effected as readily as into any private
dwelling. Many of the schools are in such
a condition that the old-fashioned locks
can be picked with a skeleton key.

O'COnnOr's Denial.

O'Connor denied yesterday that he had
requested the pardon. So did Zollman.
But they are both on record in the cover
nor's office. The signers Of the petition
tell different stories, but all appear to
have signed it to oblige some OF the rest.
Vandiver says he did 1t at the request
of a Chicago newspaper man What ex-
cites the interest OF the public is that
so many prominent men should have
taken such an interest in the prisoner.
The petition was signed by Thomas F.
Conroy, clerk Of the municipal court; Eli
Warner, former oil inspector; Albert
Berg, former secretary OF state; Fred
Schiffman, the newly appointed oil inspec-
tor; J. S. Vandiver, formerly political
editor Of the Dispatch; w. B. Hennessy.
assistant editor Of the st. Paul News:
Fred Bonge. reporter for the Mime
apolis Tribune; F. w. Zollman, assistant
county attorney, who prosecuted the
woman, and Oar F. Reese, clerk Of the SUI
preme court.
The petition did not bear the name of
Judge Hine, who was not absent from the
city. The judge is reported to be stirred
up over the woman's release He called
on the governor this morning.

Tongues Wag Furiously Over Mol
lie Morris Pardon.
wELL-KNowN MEN ASKED IT
Petition at the Request
of Others.

The release of Mollie Morris, profess
sional shop litter, from the st. Paul work
house has set St. Paul agog.
The woman was one of three, from Chi
cago. who were arrested by the st. Paul
police with about $3.50 worth of stolen
goods in their possession. A Chicago at
torney, who came up with authority to
put up $4,000 cash bail, succeeded in get
ting them off On charge Of petty larceny.
They pleaded guilty to this and were sent
to the workhouse for three months. They
had only served three weeks when petit
tion was presented to the governor for
the release Of Mollie Morris. It was pre-
sented by Chief Of Police O'Connor and J..
5. Vandiver, well-known St. Paul news
paper man. They went to the governors s
office Friday evening, Jan. 18, after nearly
everyone had left. He told them that
Chief Justice Start was absent, and that
it had been agreed that the governor
should be given free swing in the matter
OF workhouse pardons.
OConnor and Vandiver assured the gov
ernor that the woman was only in bad
company, and that nothing could be proved
against her. They had letter to that eff
feet from F. w. Zollman, assistant city
attorney, who had prosecuted the case,
and now asked for a pardon. The gov
ernor made O'Connor write a request, and
then directed the pardon to be issued.
Attorney General Douglas drew it up, and
the woman was released. Friends were
in waiting to take her back to Chicago.
Protest From Chicago.
Soon came protest from the Chicago
papers. The fact Of the pardon had not
been published at first, possibly because
several newspaper men had Joined in the
application. Gov. Van SAINT laid the entire
responsibility on O'Connor and Zollman.
He said they told him that Judge Hine,
who sentenced the woman, was out Of town,
and their request appeared to him enough
The governor did not appear to remember
Vandiver's CALL but distinctly remembered
his conversation with O'Connor, and
showed the Journal man O'Connor's re-
quest. 1t read as follows:
Governor s. r. Van Sant-Dear Sir: In the
case Of the state VS.. Mollie Morris I would
state that the defendant rendered valuable
services to the officers in the prosecution OF
the case; that she is in bad condition Of
health, that her release at this time would
serve all the ends of Justice, and concur in
the application for the pardon
