TROUBLE AT ST PETER.
Cut In Wages Causes Several Hospital
Employees to Throw up their Jobs.

ST. Peter, Sept. 26. "A new schedule
of wages, arranged by the board OF
control, and affecting employees at the
state hospital, was announced yesterday
The cut is especially severe in the
laundry and kitchen departments,
where it is from twenty-five to fifty
per cent. Benjamin Wibcrg, head
cook, has been informed that his sal
airy Of 300 month will be reduced to
$35. The salary of his assistant has
been reduced by one-hale. Mr.. Wiberg
and six of his helpers resigned their
positions today, as we'll as six of the
laundry employees, all of whom refuse
to work under the new schedule. A
reduction has also been made in the
salary of nurses, and Supervisor Hurst
has had $40 month dropped from his
salary.
The announcement of the new
schedule, resulting in the designations
and likelihood of more, has seriously
embarrassed work in general at the
hospital, and has crippled the manage.
ment. Supervisor Hurst has been
obliged to take charge of the kitchen,
where practically all of the help has
resigned. The action of the board has
caused much adverse criticism in this
vicinity, and is not looked upon fav,
orably.
- At the present scale of wages pre-.
vailing in this section, it will appar.
emily be difficult matter to fill the
positions made vacant with competent
help.

CLEVELAND'S TRIBUTE
M'KINLEY.

Since his retirement from the presi-
dency Grover Cleveland has been very
quiet and had little to say, especially
about public men, and in all that time
he has not uttered word to the pub
lie regarding his opinion of his sue
cessor in Office. Therefore the remarks
of no American on the dead president
are of greater interest than are those
of Mr.. Cleveland uttered at the me-
mortal services at Princeton univer-
sity, in which he said in part:
"The man who is universally
mourned today achieved the highest
distinction which his country can
confer on any man and he lived a
useful life. He was not deficient in
education, but with all you hear OF
his grand career and his services to
his country ana his fellow citizens
you will not hear that the high plane
he reached or what he accomplished
was due entirely to his education.
You will instead constantly hear as
accounting for his great success that
he was obedient and affectionate as a
son, patriotic and faithful as soldier,
honest and upright as citizen, ten
der and devoted as a husband, and
truthful, generous, unselfish, moral
and clean in every relation of life.
"He never thought any of those
things too weak for his manliness.
Make no mistake. Here was a most
distinguished mana great mana
useful man-who became distinguish
ed, great and useful because he had
and retained unimpaired qualities of
heart which fear university students
sometimes feel like keeping in the
background or abandoning.

MINNESOTA BUTTER LEADS.
State STANDS Chance for Prize for Best
Average Scoring of Dairy Products.

st. Paul Pioneer Press:
Minnesota Stands an excellent
chance of securing &C. the. prize. for the
best average scoring of butter exhib-
tied by any state at the Pan-American
exposition, -. said yesterday Commits
sionerx E. . Evenson, in charge of the
Minnesota dairy. exhibit at Buffalo
"The... average. OF the butter exhibited
for, September, :. "a. 60 points out of a
possible. 100, is wonderfully high.
= "IssT was told.by those in charge OF
the. exhibit. that only one tub of butter
from any other state than Minnesota
has scored. ninety-seven.. points, the
highest score for Minnesota butter for
Sept EN- Der. That was tub from New
York. We scarcely. expected to cap
ture the first prize for the average
score, as the butter has to be shipped
so. far, but we expected to make a
credible showing.
"There is only one more set of but
ter to be exhibited, and if Minnesota
maintains it's present. grade, the prize
for the best average scores seems as
sured. This will mean much for the
state. as it is an acknowledgment by
competent, impartial judges, that
Minnesota makes the best butter in the

A STREAM OF SETTLERS
Immigration to the North West is Still

Minneapolis, Sept. 26.-The vast
stream of settlers that is pouring into
the western country through the gate
ways of Minneapolis and st. Paul ex-
GELS all previous records and is far
beyond the most sanguine expectations
of railroad passenger officials and land
agents. -. - 8"
The travel is very largely in excess
of last years tremendous traffic. The
colonists' excursions which were. be-
western travel that had been lacking
in former years. But during the last
twelve months there has been an un-
interrupted flow of settlers into the
great western states tributary to Min
G. L. Alger, transfer agent for the
Mattison Omnibus line, who has
boarded through trains entering the
twin cities daily for twenty-five years,
declares that the situation is unpre-
cedented.
'There has not been a time in
twenty-five years when SO many people
were on the move, said Mr.. Alger at
the union depot this morning.
Every train shows the great move
ment westward. At present l make
the through Rock Island trains on the
Minneapolis & st. Louis and the coast
trains out of the union depot The
travel has steadily increased during
the year, and remarkable feature of
the business is that the records of the
baggage rooms in Minneapolis will
show excessively heavy travel during
the hot months of June and July.
My observation is that the bulk of the
settlers come from Iowa, Illinois and
Missouri, although there are many
from states further east. These set
tiers, or land-seekers, are not adven-
turers or wildcat spectators. They
are we'll TODD farmers and sons OF
wealthy farmers who have staked the
boys and sent them out to secure for.
tune in the west. They are business
men, and must be reckoned as such
in estimating the splendid new popu,
lation of the west. -
The talk of railroad agents is all Of
the same purport.

rad been seated in his chair all after
noon. his hands clasped on the arms
of the chair and his head bent forward
end a little to the left. The room was
not warm. but he frequently took his
handkerchief from his pocket and

raise his eyes or lift his head or seem
to know that he was the
Object of Interest
of several hundred men and women.
Every time the door was opened al!
eyes were turned in that direction, the
evident thought in every mind being
that the jury would take only few
minutes to agree on verdict.
1t was Abs when the crier raped
for order and the jury filed into the
room. The clerk read their names,
each juror responding present" as he
name was called.
No time was wasted. The jurors
did not sit down. Addressing them,
Justice White said:
Gentlemen, have you agreed upon
a verdict?"
I'VE have" responded Foreman
Wendt.
What is your verdict"
"That the defendant is guilty OF
murder in the first degree"
There was a moment of silence,
then a murmur arose from the lips
of the crowd. 1t ended there. There
was no handclapping; no cheers,
Justice Whites voice could be clearly
heard in every part of the room when
he thanked the jurors for their work
and allowed them to go until IL
o'clock in the morning.
Court was at once adjourned.
CZolgosZ was Immediately hand
cuffed to his guard and taken through
the courtroom, down stairs, to the
basement and through the tunnel to
the Jail. He appeared to be in no
way affected by the result of the trial.

THE CZOLGOSZ TRIAL.

The jury at Buffalo in the Czolg osz
case, found the assassin guilty of muir
der in the first degree. 1t could not do
anything else very we'll under the cir
cumstances. The trial has been pushed
forward with great celebrity, yet there
has been no undue haste. All OF the
rights of the prisoner under the con
stitution have been carefully guarded.
The court refused to accept the pri-
soner's plea of guilty, and he was
given jury trial, SO that it can never
be said that he was forced to make a
plea of gnilty by undue influence OF
the authorities. No defense was made
for the prisoner. What defense could
really be offered When the experts
all agreed that the prisoner was sane,
the last feature upon which a defense
might be founded had the attorneys
been SO disposed was swept away.
What real need of defense was there.
The crime was admitted. The evil
dence offered was overwhelming.
The judge has announced that he
will impose sentence Thursday after
noon. This will be death by electro
cution. After the sentence is imposed
the law of New York state provide
that seven weeks must elapse before
the execution takes place. Everything
80 far connected with the case has
been conducted in quiet, orderly
manner, with no, posing of any kind
to attract undue attention. Justice
has travelled swiftly SO far, let it sc
continue to the end.

eral Years.
Cleveland, O., Sept. 2S.-Investiga-
ton made by Police Inspector
Schmunksreveals the startling posi-
bility that plot to assass1nate Pres
ldent Mckinley was laid a year or
more ago, before he was elected for
his second term, and it may have been
laid in the peaceful suburbs of Cleve-
land or any town where the Czolgosz
family resided. A statement made by
his brother a month ago led to the in
vestigation that may have an impor-
tant bearing on the case. The Buffalo
department and federal secret service
agents have been strong In their be-
lief that there was plot. One strong
element in the belief of the Buffalo
and secret service detectives has been
the fact that the handkerchief with
which the assassin concealed the
hand in whichSke held his weapon was
. woman's handkerchief. What is
more important is that the handker-
chief was tied about the hand in a
way that he, it is claimed, would not
have been able to tie it himself, no
rnQffnr hnur cl-;11Fn1 no noi0hf haun
been with the other hand, or how
much time he might have taken to tie
1t. The fact that Czolgosz had money
impelled the detectives to try to learn
whence he got it. His
Brother Wadeck Confessed
to having sent it to Leon under the
name of Frank Snyder at West Sen
eca, N. Y. In his search for clews,
Detective Schmunk learned from the
neighboring farmers that the Czol-
gosZ boys, Leon and Waldeck, have
been readers of socialist papers for
several years. John d. Knox, an aged
farmer who lives in the vicinity of
the former Czolgosz farm, said:
"The two boys, the one that shot
the president, and Waldeck, used to
come to my house and talk to me
about their socialist papers. They
brought their papers to me and tried
to get me to read them. Once, when
they were here during the last presi-
Dental campaign they got to talking
about President Mckinley, and one
of them said:
eff he is elected he will be shot
before he serves out his term"
It is said Icons father, sisters and
brothers are going to Buffalo soon
and the police believe that when they
confront Leon he will break down and
reveal all that is now mystery in
regard to the shooting of the presi-

Detroit, Sept. ga special to The
Free Press from Albion, Mich, says:
Mrs. Charles Davis and her daugh-
ter-in-law, Mrs. Charles Hancock,
while driving to their home about six
miles from here, were attacked by a
highwayman who held their horse and
demanded their money. Mrs. Davis
whipped up her horse and the high
wayman fired at her, the bullet strik-
ing her in the neck. Mrs. Hancock
then drove the horse to this place
and as they were crossing the Mich
igan Central tracks here the buggy
was struck by a passenger train and
both women thrown violently to the
ground. Mrs. Hancock escaped with
slight bruises. Mrs. Davis, who was
unconscious from the bullet wound,
suffered a severe scalp wound by the
fall. She was taken to a relatives
home, and it is feared she may die.

Potato cars are said to be scarce and
the demand in the southwest for Min
nesota tubers is increasing. st. Louis
potato men are said to estimate that
they will want about 3, 900 carloads in
the next six months and at Kansas
City they figure on at least 1, 500 cars.
Omaha will also be big buyer OF
tubers, so that the Minnesota farmer
who has good field of potatoes is
pretty sure to find good market for
them at a good price. The bulk OF
these potatoes for the southwest will
be moved before cold weather sets in,
which has caused great demand fol
cars, and necessitated much hustling
on the part of the railroads to get the
extra rolling stock.
