CHICAGO, Aug. 2.-George H. Phillips

to the customers of his firm, announcing

erations on the board of trade by next

amount of this OYeIpayment is estimated
to be little under $4,000. The deposed
corn king says there is no legal pro-
cess by which the people can be made to
refund the money, but he is confident
that nearly all of them will do so as soon
as they understand the circumstances

BRINGS HEAVY SUIT
ASKED FOR $4,000 FOR
DAMAGES
LITTLE GIRL BADLY BITTEN
August SchuIze, Father of the I'm
fortunate Child, Sues Joseph
Steiner, Who Kept the
Canine.

Thomas J: McDermott, as attorney for
August Sclulze, father of little Lizzie
Schulze who was badly bitten by dog
owned by Joseph Steiner, a saloonkeeper
at 1877 West Fairfield avenue, about two
weeks ago, as related in the G OBJ e, has
commenced an action for damages against
Mr.. Steiner to recover $4,000 for personal
injuries.
The summons and complaint were
served on the defendant Thursday, and
the papers in the suit will be filed with
the district clerk in a few days. SchulZe
keeps his horses in a barn in the rear of
the saloon of Joseph Steiner, and on the
evening the accident occurred went to the
stable, accompanied by his eleven-year-
old daughter. AS Schulze opened the door,
dog owned by Steiner jumped out and
attacked the little girl. He pinned her
to the ground, and before she could be
released from his grasp, the girl was
Ir1gntIuIly bitten. DR.. Hawkins made an
examination and found that the savage
animal had almost torn the nose from
the chlld's face, crushing the top of it
IN a manner that will permanently dis
inquire her. Her left ear and cheek were
also badly lacerated, and there were a
number of other ugly marks left on the
child.
The dog was put in quarantine by the
health department, and was killed by one
OF the health officers last Thursday. The
dog had developed no signs of rabies, but
It's head was cut off and sent to the lab

DAM is ENJOINED
CAN'T SHOOT NEIGHBCR'S DUCKS
ON THEIR OWN RESERVATION
The Court Rules in Favor of Uri L.
Lamprey in His Suit
Against Jacob
DAM

a decision was rendered by Judge Bum
yesterday in the case of Uri L. Lamprey
the we'll known attorney, against Jacob
Danz, in which action was brought to re-
strain the latter from shooting on Mr.
Lamprey's private duck reserves at How
ard Lake, and the findings of the court
are of unusual interest to all sportsmen.
In his decision the court orders jUdg-
ment for Mr. Lamprey, and the defendant
is restrained and enjoined from hunting
or shooting on the ground in question, or
the water covering the property descrb-
ed in the complaint. He is also enjoined
from going upon the water after ducks
or game which have been winged while
on the flight, and which may fall into
Howard lake.
Some years ago Mr.. Lamprey, who IS
one of the best known sportsmen of St
Paul, purchased the ground inclosins
Howard lake as private shooting pre-
serve. The lake, which is filled with
wild rice, covers an area of 800 acres. anG
during the season wild ducks and other
game feed there in great numbers.
or recent years Mr.. Danz, who has
the lease of property on Mud lake, which
is contiguous to Howard lake. erected a
blind, or cover, on an intervening pass
and it was alleged that from this point
of vantage he would shoot ducks as they
passed to Howard lake, and after falling
in the water, he and his friends, at the
end Of each day, would gather up the
game.
The court holds that the contention Of
Mr.. Lamprey to the sole right to shoot
game at Howard lake is valid for the
reason that he owns the ground and lake
IN lee simple by reason of purchase, and
judgment is ordered as stated.

DESPITE MICHAEL. STADTFELD'S
RESIGNATION HUNT INSISTS ON
AN INVESTIGATION
MATTER HAS BEEN DEFERRED
Mayor Smith Appoints Members of
Five Committees Who Are to
Serve for the Ensu-
ing Year.

At the regular meeting yesterday Of
the city hall and court house commission
a sensational tilt was occasioned by the
resignation of Michael Stadtfeld, the
head painter at the court house, who
sent in a written communication, in
which he informed the commission that
he had secured a better paying position,
and that he could no longer serve at the
court house.
The res .gnation was accepted, after
which Alderman Hunt stated that de-
spite the resignation he would insist
upon an investigation of the charges
against Sta6tfeld, to the effect that he
had carried away material from the
building which belonged to the county
On motion of the chair a messenger
was sent to summon both Stadtfeld and
Custodian Cramsey before the comm.s-
sion, but as they had left the building
action on the ma ter was deferred.
After a discussion it was decided to
suspend the three assistant painters I'M
til such time as they are needed, and it
was also decided to discharge any other
dead timber around the building.
An estimate of $3.50 in favor of ]. G.
Robertson, for work on the new elevator
was allowed, and Gil Nafey was rein
stated as elevator conductor. The ele-
vator which leads direct to the jail will
be started up today.
The following standing committees
were announced by Mayor Smith for
the ensuing year:
Claims, Haas, Lott and Bantz; lighting,
Gray, Bantz and Hunt; fuel and heat
ing, Lott, Wright and Haas; grounds and
buildings, Hunt, Lott and Wright. tsa
large number of bills was passed,
and a discussion ensued over the &C
count of M. N. Webber, whose bill
amounting to 1894 for fixing the chan
delers and other work has been hung
up for some time. 1t was decided 10
make a further investigation into the ac-
count, for the reason that tie work was
done at the instance of the custodian,
and it had not been authorized by the
commission.
Hereafter no bills will be allowed I'M
less the work is authorized by the COM
mission.

GENERAL FUND EXEMPT
BENEFITED PROPERTY MUST PAY
FOR SIBLEY STREET WIDENING.

In an opinion given Yesterday Cor
poration Attorney Markham holds that
no part of the cost for the proposed wild
Rning of Sibley street can be taken out
Of the general fund. Neither can the
council make any such demand on the
board of public works.
The owners of the property abutting
the street want the assessment for the
cost Of the Improvement spread extern
siVely, on the ground that the public
at large IS benefited. In giving his opin-
ion, Mr.. Markham cOncisely remarks:
'"The charter provides that whenever
any order is passed by the common coun-
Gil for the making of any public improve
ment, which shall require the condemna-
ton af any real estate, the board of pub
lie works shall proceed to ascertain and
assess the damages and reconpense the
owners Of such land respectively, and at
the same time, determine what real es-
tate will be benefited in proportion to
each separate lot"
