DOUBTS GROCERY TRUST
JOHN f. KELLY, OF THIS CITY,
KNOWS NOTHING OF COMBINE
He Is Inclined to Believe That the
Story Has No Reliable
Foundation in
Fact.

AS far as could be learned last even
ing none of the wholesale grocery
houses of st. Paul has been included in
the prospective membership Of the gi-
gantic trust which it is reported is to
be formed by firms in that line of bust
ness or has been invited to send a rep
resentative to the meeting which it has
been announced will soon be held in New
York for the purpose of organization.
John F. Kelly, of the firm Of Foley
Bros. & Kelly, when asked last evening
for information in regard to the propect,
said: II have seen 1t stated in the papers
that such plan was on foot and that q
meeting of wholesale grocers was to be
held for the purpose Of organizing, but
otherwise 1 have heard nothing of it
at all, and l have been inclined to think
there was nothing in it, Our firm has
not received any sort of request or inv;-
tation to join in any plan of that kind,
l know, for I open all the mail and
would therefore be the first person to
receive anything of the sort that might
come. l have not heard any mention of
the proposed trust or combination among
the members of the other firms in our
line, and 1 am quite sure that if there
really was any such scheme in contem-
plation some of US would have heard of
it,"
According to report it is intended to
start the trust with a membership or
constituency of about 10 per cent of the
2,700 wholesale grocery houses in this
country or from $50 to 275 of the leading
firms in that line.

OHAGE'S LATEST IDEA
WILL PROMOTE HIS PUBLIC TOILET
BUILDINGS SCHEME
Thinks st. Paul Should Not Lag Be-
hind Progressive Cities of
United States and
Old World.

Public toilet buildings is the latest
scheme to be taken up by Health Com
missioner Ohage, but so far his requests
for aid from the city council and the
park and school boards, whose co-opera-
ton he desires, have fallen on deaf ears.
In the business section of the city he
desires to erect ten of these buildings
each fully equipped with toilet facilities,
and the council he has asked to set aside
$500 for THEM construction. From the
park board and'the school board he ask
ed permission for the use of the grounds
under their charge for sites where they
might be located but up to date the re-
CURED permission from the two latter
bodies has not been given. In fact the
school board has given the request a
polite refusal by placing his communica-
ton on file. The council now has his re-
quest for money under consideration
1.-The impression said Dr. Ohage yes
terday, seems to have gone abroad that
the toilet houses 1 propose will be a
nuisance and an eyesore, and guess it
is this that is responsible for the re-
fusal of the two boards to allow the use
of the grounds under their care
1.-THE buildings 1 have planned will be an
ornament and VIII be thoroughly SAM
tary. Screened by flowers and vines and
built spiral-shape, their interior will not
confront the passer-by, the sign only CIV
ing evidence as to what they are intend
ed for In the Old World, and in fact
many of the progressive cities Of the
new, these public toilet rooms are rec
ognized as a public necessity and are
distributed over the city In liberal num-
bers. In Munich dozens of them occupy
the center of a street and driveway as
fashionable and which rivals our Summit
avenue. In each are to be found wash
rooms and every convenience in respect
to toilet facilities, and these I expect to
have in the buildings that I will erect"
DR.. Ohage says that st. Paul will be
full of strangers in another MONTH and
if possible he wants to have the build
ings completed by that time If the park
board refuses the use of the parks, they
will be erected on vacant ground at the
street intersections.

ASPHALT THE CHOICE
MARSHALL AVENUE RESIDENTS
SUSTAINED BY THE
ASSEMBLY
NO PROTESTING VOICE HEARD
d. f. Conway & Co.'s Bid VIII Be
Accepted if Mayor Smith Gives
His Assent to the
- Act.

No further delay is anticipated in the
paving of Marshall avenue. AT the meet
ing of the assembly last evening unani-
nous approval was given to the action of
the board of public works in awarding
the contract to the B. f. Conway COM
pany, and now all that remains is the
Endorsement of the mayor and the legal
publication of the act.
Confident that the assembly would re-
peat the action of the board of alder
men at its meeting last Tuesday evening
in awarding the contract, few property
owners concerned were present. Not a
voice was raised in protest, and the mat
ter went through with such rush that
1T is probable they would not have been
aware of the outcome had they been in
attendance.
The action of the board Of aldermen in
killing off the final orders authorizing
the paving of Minnesota, Minnehaha and
Decatur streets, and the reputation
of the award of the contract for the paw
ing with asphalt of Jackson street and
Central Park place, took the controversy
from the hands of the assembly, but it
did not prevent Assemblyman Benson
from voting no when new preliminary
orders for these streets were introduced
There were two preliminary orders one
for Jackson street and the other for Gen.
tralPark place, both naming asphalt as
the paving material. Unexpectedly no
debate resulted Mr.. Benson's voice only
being heard when he asked to be record
ed as voting no. Six members were re-
corded as favoring the new orders.
From the board of public works was
received a final order for the paving of
Eighth street from Broadway to Kittson
street, with sandstone, but the board re-
fused to indorse it, sending it to the COM
mittee on streets for discussion.

The RATES
SCHEDULE, INVOLVING rs
PER CENT INCREASE
BUSINESS HOUSES AFFECTED
Revised Rates Do Not Apply to
Dwellings,, and Are Less in
Some Cases Than
Formerly.

Mercantile firms which occupy old
fashioned buildings peculiarly susceptible
to total destruction in case of fire will
hereafter be compelled to pay higher
insurance rates in accordance with
revised schedule adopted by companies
all over the United States. The increase
ranges from 10 to % per cent according
to the construction and fire proof quail
ties of the buildings affected
At the same time there has been a cor
responding reduction in the rates charged
hrms which are housed in buildings con-
structed on modern principles and along
the lines prescribed by the national board
of fire underwriters.
G. w. La Brande, local inspector for
the board of fire underwriters, said yes
terday that the move had been made for
the purpose of equalizing risks. 1t was
considered unfair to assess the same rate
upon merchant who occupied a modern
building, equipped with all reasonable pre-
cautions against the spread of a pos
s1ble fire, as was charged merchant in
the same line of business whose stock
was in structure built many years ago,
and with practically no precautions
against the spread of a fire. 1t was ac-
cordingly determined to equalize the
risks, and add to those who were in poor
ly protected buildings what was taken
ut has been thought" said Mr. La
Brande yesterday, that our action is
practically a reflection upon the fire de-
partment of the city, but the reverse is
the case The most old-fashioned build
ing in the mercantile district receives pre-
cisely the same protection as does the
most modern, but the same chance of
saving the property doesn't exist in both
instances. AS a matter of fact our re-
auctions have in the aggregate been
slightly in excess of the increases which
we have imposed, and If we thought the
fire department was not what 1t should
be, we would certainly make no reduc-
lions at all In no case has the rate
been raised more than IS per cent, while
some of the reductions have amounted to
as much as SO 1-3 per cent. The whole
thing amounts to an equitable distribu-
ton of the rates charged on the total
risks In the city, and the same thing
has been done in every city in the Union.
1.-THE new schedule took effect on the
9th of last month, and the fact that
merchants recognize the justice of our
move shows that it involves no undue
discrimination"
1t was rumored on the streets yester-
day that the advance made had in some
cases amounted to as mach as 50 per
cent, but this Mr. La Brande pronounces
to be absolutely false The limit has been
% per cent in this city, and in the ma
jority of cases not more than 10 per cent
On risks affecting private houses no
change has been made, as the schedule
previously in force amply provides for
the differences existing in the absolute
risk to fire to which they were exposed.

They were accompanied by Attorney
General Douglas and ]. Adam Bede, the

Lord Died in England, With Prop

Was BistGa tisfied With
Her Allowance.

Judge Bazilie, of the probate court yes
terday heard the petition of the widow of
the late samuel ID. Lord, for leave to set
ASIDE the will Land to reopen the estate,
WhCn was denied for the reason that the
applIcatioL was net made within the time
prescribed by law.
samuel u. Lord was for many years a
resident OF St. Paul, and before leaving
LOT England, where he died, accumulated
large fortune by dealing in tax titles
and real estate.
de left this country several years ago
at an advanced age, and subsequently
married in England, the result of the
union being a nine-year-old girl
AT the time of his death his will was
propated both in this country and in Eng
land, but subsequently the widow, who
was not satisfied with her allowance,
sent Albert GasQuoine, British attor-
ney, to st. Paul for the purpose, if pos
sible, of reopening the estate, so that she
could secure the wifes fun dover or
share of the estate, which would have
amounted to one-third.
After hearing all the testimony in the
case, Judge BaZille decided against her
for the reason stated, the law being that
applications to reopen an estate must be
made within six months after the final
decree or settlement.

Among other effects in the pocket of
the dead man, were several business
cards of c. e. Henrichsen, saloonkeeper

at his place of business revealed the fact
that he is still alive, and doing business
as usual.
He was unable to throw any light as

explanation being that he must have
visited his saloon at some time, ana
taken the cards from a case on the coun-
