land to note that the Chicago success has
been duplicated In every particular.
The average age of the members of the
post is almost 6S, and other Grand Army
men do not quite understand how it is
that the men preserve the elastic step and
all of the other outward and visible marks
Of young manhood The dress worn to-day
by the post was pleasing modification of
that worn in Chicego-light fedoras,
white vests, Prince Albert coats, white
duck trousers, black shoes, canes and the
inevitable carnation pink in the button
hole of the coat. Again. as in Chicago,
the post was the only body in the parade
which did not wear the distinctive Grand
Army dress.

Of Chicago, Lafayette post of New York,

special attention. The members are much
pleased over their showing, and especially
since 1t will serve to more widely adver-
tise the candidacy of Judge Torrance for
cOmmander-i chief.

overtures have met with such success as
to warrant the assertion that beforet long
there will be transfer of titles all
around in that locality.
In the meantime, local capitalist has
been taking the preliminary steps looking
to vacation of the alley connecting First
and Third avenues between Washington
and Second street 1t is proposed to run
spur track from the Milwaukee wards
across Third avenue, through the alley to
Second avenue, and across that thorough
fare, through the continuation Of the al
ley, to First avenue. The consent Of
property owners and the cooperation of
the Milwaukee road is practically assured.
All that is wanting now is the approavI
Of the city council. The proposition will
be made before long to the Joint council
committees of railroads and street grades
and additions. AS 1t is matter of great
moment to the commercial interests of
Minneapolis the council is quite likely to
be in hearty accrd with the project.
II the council Is agreeable, the district
will be provided with unsurpassed shipping
facilities. No industry in Minneapolis Is
developing more rapidly or has more
promise for the future than the farm i'm
plement trade. With its steady expansion,
the shipping problem has become cores
pondingly important. Its solution is at
hand. If the contemplated improvements
go through.
Property along Washington avenue, be-
tween Third and First avenues, which has
experienced reverses in recent years by
the retail business moving UP town, would
be given great impetus by the enterprise.
Where second hand stores, cheap theaters,
saloons and lodging houses now abound,
there would be room for wholesale houses
The location, in close touch with the retail
district on one side. would be strategic
one.
1t would not be surprising to see the old
Window block. which was gutted by fire
last winter, remodeled into large whole
sale house.

FARM IMPLEMENT CENTER
Eastern Capitalists Are Picking Up
Pieces in the Vicinity of 1st and
End Avs. s. and End ST.

Eastern capitalists have PREACHING
designs upon the property bounded by
Second street, Washington, First and Sec
ond avenues S.
The aim Of those interested is to con-
vert that district into the center Of the
farm implement industry in this city. The
projectors already control the old. St.
Charles hotel property, First avenue and
Second street. If their plans mature, they
intend to erect an immense implement
house on that site. They now aim to Sc
cure control of all the property within the
streets mentioned and to convert it into
a manufacturing center for farm imple-
ments.
Within the past few weeks negotiations
have been under way for the purchase

become better understood. After carefully

thorlzed the statement that his candidacy
would not be pressed this year His friends

Stewards Advantage.
At the meeting Of the G. A. r. encamp-
ment to-day, the Torrance forces began to
see something of the strength of the or
ganization which is working for Stewart.
Every past department commander-these
are the life members and usually the. con-
trolling influence in national encampments
is for Stewart The influence of these
men is tremendous. but it was overcome
IN St. Louis in 1892, when Judge Rea was
elected, and it may be overcome again this
year.
AT any rate, the Torrance managers,
while somewhat surprised, are not dis
heartened. They really expect to win.
1t is uncertain who will lead on the first
ballot tomorrow.
Somebody is responsible for an apparent
discrimination against Minnesota in the
arrangement of seats in the Euclid Ave-
nue. opera house. Pennsylvania and New
York have seats in the parquet right in
front of the stage, Minnesota is slowed
away off in the gallery remote from the
scene of active operations, where she can
neither be seen nor heard, save by a small
percentage of delegates. There is much
complaining because of this ARRANGEMENT.
It Is anybodys race to-day. 1t looks
as If Stewart might lead on the first bal
lot with Torrance and Sitkles making a
close race for second place. I under
stand there is a rule Of organization that
the low man shall be dropped after the
second ballot. Torrance's balance of
power will avail him little should be be
the low man.

The Minneapolis journal. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn.) 1888-1939, 1901-09-12

stronger reasons than ever before for be-
lieving that the Minneapolis candidate
for chief has good chance
to win. OF course, there are elements of
uncertainty entering into the case and
possible changes to-day and tonight may
upset all the sanguine calculations of the
Torrance managers; but at this writing
Torrance seems to be moving at win
! ming gait.
Detection From SfckIes.
The thing which expedited the move
| ment in his favor was the final caucus OF
the New York delegation. which. after a
two-day session with only the parade
intervening. decided to split it's vote, Civ
ing 2S to Sickles and 10 to Stewart This
Detection from Sickles in his own state
will have very important bearing upon
Torrance's candidacy, and there is a pos
sibility. since it was brought about by the
Vaccinations Of Stewart men, that the
votes, in event they cannot win, will go
I'in-a body to Torrance.
This is the trend of matters to-day.
Sickles refuses to discuss the split, but
maintains most friendly attitude toward
Torrance. On the other hand, the Stew
art managers have been to Torrance twice
within twenty -four hours, with the sug-
gestion that if he will withdraw they will
support him solidly next year. The
breach is now so wide between Sickles
and Stewart that it seems almost impos-
sible to heal it. If it should appear that
Sickles is likely to win. there are reasons
for believing that the Stewart strength
will go to Torrance. OF course. for such
art must stay in the race for several bal
lots.
Perhaps a Stampede.
The danger Of a convention stampede is
not over. After allowing for these several
contingencies. however, it is easy to see
that Judge Torrance, in addition to hold
ing the balance of power, has forged
ahead until he is in sight of victory.
His canvass is in splendid condition.
and his managers confidently expect to
land him. He would probably win If de-
cision were to come to-day. Everything
will depend on final caucuses to be held
tonight.
Each candidate represents an entirely
different policy as regards the admins
tration of the pension Office Sickles is
strongly hostile to Pension Commissioner
Evans; Stewart is friendly to Evans
Torrance holds a middle ground, and has
refused to solicit votes on either side OF
the Evans question. His is the logical po-
sition, it is believed

again carried off the honors of the Grand
Army national parade. All along the line
OF march it was greeted with enthusias-

it exceeded that given any other body in
the parade. This perhaps was to have been
expected after the success at Chicago last
year, but at the same time it has been
highly gratifying to Minnesotans in Cleve-

perintendent Of Police Cusack said TODAY:
NO requisttion papers have been asked
for nor will be to-day, nor have any been
prepared" He declined to discuss the
case. 1t is reasoned however, that if the
police had any kind of case against EN-
ma Goldman there would be no delay in
asking for the custody of her.
1t is predicted here that Emma Goldman
will be released within few hours. bur
the police will not admit 1t. 1t is thought
that an effort will be made to hold her
as long as possible. to permit the fullest
inquiry, and that if she is released sha
will be shadowed until the investigation
is concluded.
The grand jury of Erie county was in
session today, but neither the Czolgosz nor
Goldman case was placed before it. The
police said they would act in the Czolgosz
case just as soon as the president was pro-
nounced out of danger by his doctors

"Will he be able to sit I'D soon?

''Will he be able to sit up soon?

"Oh, cannot tell you but it is nothing

| factorily.
Mustn't Smoke Just Yet.

did he get it?''
'Wen hardly replied the surgeon.
'He will have to wait a while yet before
we allow him to smoke
DR.. McBurney Departs.
The news form the bedside of the sick
| president is all that could be desired.
He slept we'll and was so much improved
this morning that he was givensa cup of
coffee and bowl of chicken broth. His
appetite was good and his spirits so high
| that after his breakfast he appealed to
DR.. McBurney to be allowed to smoke a
cigar. The bulletin issued after the
morning consultation confirmed officially
surgeons. DR.. McBurney. who is looked
upon as the dean of the corps Of ply
sicians in attendance. decided this morn
ing that his presence was no longer neoes-
sary and that he would leave at 1 D. m.
for New York. But 1t is his intention to
return in few days. Secretary Root also
was scheduled to leave at the same hour,
| and Postmaster General Smith probably
will go to Washington tonight Secre-
taries Hitchcock and Wilson. however,
will remain indefinitely.
Congratulations and THANKSGIVING,
kilograms, cables and letters continue
to pour in, but their tone has changed.
Expressions of pain, sympathy and grief
have given way to congratulations and
thanksgiving. The whole world seems to
share in the rejoicing at the prospect of
the presidents recovery.
The bullet in the body is scarcely men
toned now, either by the president. his
friends or the physicians. AS a factor In
the presidents condition it is seemingly
ignored. The consensus of opinion of the
physicians is that the outer wound will
not be healed tight for several weeks. and
that it will be advisable for him to remain
quietly here for about month. They will
take no chances. DR.. McBurney says the
presidents ability to sit up is now purely
question of mechanics, but that such
move will not be permitted until the
wound Is perfectly strong.
Abner Mckinley, the presidents broth
er, Is still here, but has not yet been ad-
mitted to his presence. The doctors say
it would be safe now for the president to
see an occasional visitor, but they desire
to put it off as long as possible.
