FORMING THE RULES
PREPARE EoR INTERSTATE
ARTILLERY CONTEST
MEET BADGERS AT LAKEvIEw
First Contest ofa the Kind Ever
Held I'M This State
Can't Let IIli-
nOiay In.

The officers of Battery A, First Artil
lery of the State Of Minnesota, and of
Battery of Minneapolis. and the engi-
neers of the First battalion, met at the
Windsor hotel last might.
The meeting was called by Maj. Lam
bert, ex-adjutant general of the state, the
object being to frame rules and regula-
lions for the artillery contest and target
practice between the battalions of Mime
sofa and Wisconsin to take place at
Camp Lake View in September.
1t was decided some days since to ac-
cept the challenge thrown out by Wis
consin, and the whole of last evening was
spent in formulating rules to govern the
contest, which, by the way. is the first
artillery contest ever organized between
the states.
incidentally an application was received
from the battalion of Illinois to partici-
pate in the contest, but owing to the
1act that 1t was only received recently,
and the arrangements for the contest be-
tween Minnesota and Wisconsin were I'M
der way, twas considered advisable to
let the Illinois challenge go over until
next year.
The matter of the proposed visit of the
battalion to the st. Louis exposition in
1903 was considered, and as Maj. Lam
bert stated, it is considered advisable to
make an early start in order to arrange
for the ways and means, or in other
words to provide for the expenses incl
dent to the trip.
According to the present plan, it is pro-
posed to load the guns, horses and equip
ments on barges, after the encampment
at Lake City, of that year, and proceed
to st. Louis by way of the river. Return
ing the troops and equipments will come
by rail.
The matter of participating in the re-
ception of Vice President Roosevelt on
the opening day of the state fair was
also considered, and it was decided that
the battalion should turn out in full num-
bers, with horses and guns
AS soon as perfected the rules drawn
up last night for the forthcoming con-
test will be submitted to the Wisconsin
troops for their approval

M. F. de Monchy, of Amsterdam, Hol-

From here he will go to Spokane, where
his concern is heavily interested in real
estate besides having large holdings of
farm lands in the state of Washington.
Recently his company has disposed of
large tracts of land at good prices, and
he states that all of the reports from
Washington and other Western states,
where they have invested, are most ia
Vorable.
1--WE are having good times in Hol-
land just now" said he, land so far as
my observation has gone matters in the
United States are more prosperous than
they have been in years.

WANDERER ON THE RIVER
BETHEL BOAT is STILL DENIED A
PLACE TO ANCHOR
Renewal of Attempt to Gain Con-
cessiOn From the City Avails
NOthing-BOatmen ResO-
IuteIy Opposed.

IAN obstruction No room for it. Have
little enough levee room now. Never was
an inviting ornament to st. Paul's river
front Merchants think permission to al
low the Bethel boat TO tie up at the foot
Of Jackson street should be denied"
This, in brief, is the substance of
numerously signed petition that has been
forwarded to the city council, protesting
against the passage of an ordinance per-
hitting the Bethel boat to tie up at the
foot of Jackson street. The petition bears
names of merchants along Jackson street
and in that vicinity, and in addition in
cludes a number of boat owners, among
them the Staples Towing company, A. Z.
Mosier. of the steamer Lora, and w. H.
Newcomb, of the Cyclone. OF those who
think the boat should go elsewhere are
the IIauser 81 Sons Mailing company,
Jung Brewing company, Minnesota Land
company and North Star Candy company.
For a month Aid. Dobner, who intro
duced the ordinance. has attempted to
gain its passage, but each time OPPOSE
ton has sprung up. At the meeting of
the committee on streets yesterday MI.
Dobner attempted to secure approval, but
opposition again bobbing up, he secured
its postponement until more favorable
date.
The Diamond 10 company was the first
to protest against the presence OF the
Bethel. ana is Stlll opposed, DuI Hope ~
assist in finding it a home by relinquish-
ing possession of the old dock and ware
house just above their present landing.
Even this is opposed by the other boat
owners who say the Bethel is nuisance
and will give them trouble if placed near
where they land At present, from two to
three steamers daily are anchored at the
wharf and rivermen say in another year
this number will be doubled, and then
there will be no room to spare.
The boat is still stationed just below
Jackson street, rather the worse for
wear because of the buffeting she has re-
ceiyed, and those in charge of her are
anxious to find a permanent location. 1t
is probable that she will be showed up
stream and given a home behind the
floating boom that has been placed In
position just above the Great Western
draw.

PAVING OF IRVINE AV.
PRESENCE OF THE ALDER
MEN
LONG PETITION PRESENTED
Richards Gordon Leads Faction
Who Oppose the Projected
Improvement of the
Street.

Its pity that such a small minority
should be able to overcome the desires
of such large majority, who are pro-
testing against this Improvement. It IS
three men against twelve."
Who said we were going to pass it?'
'No offense meant Mr. Dobner," quick
ly interrupted Richards Gordon. II just
offered it as an argument to show YOU
the ratio. We don't want Irvine avenue
paved
1t was at the meeting Of the committee
on streets of the board of aldermen yes
terday afternoon, and the question at is
sue was the consideration of a final or
der proposing the grading and macadam-
izing of Irvine avenue, a small street
giving access to the rear of Residences
on Summit avenue, from Walnut street to
Western avenue.
Richards Gordon and C. w. Hackett led
the opposition to the improvement, While
c. P. Noyes and George Thompson, Of the
Dispatch, spoke in favor of it.
Messrs. Noyes and Thompson held that
the Improvement was decidedly neces-
sary, as it was travelled thoroughfare,
much used by teams, and also gave them
access to their stables. It's muddy condi-
ton, they commended, was anything but
inviting for carriages that were COMPEL
ed to use it.
Mr.. Gordon could not see it in this light,
however, holding that the property own
ers did not want the improvement, and
in substantiation submitted petition
representing a frontage of 1900 feet and
containing some rather prominent names.
The list included E. s. Weyerhauser, A.
B. Stickney, Mary E. Hale, w H. Light
ner, c. w. Hackett, r. c. Jefferson r.
c. Rue and a number of others equally
prominent.
Mr. Thompson thought that Mr.. Cor
don had used his seductive powers to the
end of getting unwilling signers, but Mr..
Gordon claimed they were all bona fide.
If the street was to be improved, City
Engineer Claussen said that 1t would
have to be paved, and on this the board
members gave their approval to the or
der, Aid Timer alone dissenting.
When the matter came before the board
of public works the opposition was just
as lively, and it is now understood will
be carried direct to the council, where an
effort will be made to kill it.

APPLIES FOR REBATE
STATE AUDITOR IS ASKED TO RE-
NETT TAXES TO RAILROAD
Wisconsin, Minnesota & Pacific Has
Claim of $4,000, Repre-
senting Taxes for '97
and '9S.

The Wisconsin, Minnesota & Pacific
Railway company has applied to the
state auditor for a refundment of taxes
paid under the provisions of the Ander-
son bill of 1895, which has been declared
by the supreme court of the United
States to be unconstitutional.
The amount of this claim is $4,000,
which represents taxes for the years 1897
and 1888 assessed under the Anderson bill
upon unused railroad lands and, the COM
pany alleges, paid under protests. The
payment, however took place before the
bill was pronounced unconstitutional.
The question has been submitted to the
attorney generals department for an
opinion as to the legality of the claim.

MAI. ESPEY GUARDIAN.
Frank b. Cooley Must Grow "a Lit
tie Older.

Judge Bazille. of the probate court, has
prepared his decision in the case of
Frank B. Cooley son of the late Judge
Cooley, in which his petition to be re-
stored to capacity is denied
AT the time of Judge Cooley's death he
left considerable fortune in cash and
real estate, among the assets being $50 600
in gold.
After coming into possession of his
heritage, it is claimed that young Cooley
turned out to be a spendthrift, and when
he was brought before the probate court
his mental condition was such that it
was deemed advisable to appoint a
guardian.
Maj. Espey was appointed guardian of
the young man. shortly after which pro-
ceedings were brought to have the order
revoked. I'm his decision, Judge BaZille
holds that Cooley is not yet in a condi-
tion to take care of the property and
the order to have him restored is denied.
