WORDS LED TO BLOWS
FIVE. YOUNG SwEDES LOCKED UP
FOR FIGHTING

AS the result of a dispute over 70 cents,
Nels Martfnson, Ernest Mattson, John
Carlson, Ole Lundquist and Nels Lund-
gren, five young Swedes, are at the Cen
trail station on the charge of disorderly
conduct. Lundquist is also charged
with being drunk. During the fight
Lundgren was hit on the head with some
thing, and Dr. Gf1fllan was called to
dress the wounds. He had two slight cuts
on his head and two stitches were put
in.
None of the five could talk much Eng
fish, and it was with difficulty that they
told their stories at the station.
According to Martinson he, with Lund-
gren and Mattson, was walking down
Seventh street about o'clock last night.
Lundgren had returned from Iowa yes
terday morning and had bundle with
him. Near Olive street Lundgren went
into the rear of a shoema&er's, where
Carlson and Lundquist live, for the pur-
pose of leaving his bundle. Lundgren
talked to the two men for a few minutes
and they accused him of owing them 70
cents. Words finally led to blows, and
during the fight between Lundgren, Carl
son and Lundquist Martinson says, he
saw Lundquist take something that look
ed like billy out of his hip pocket
and strike Lundgren on the head with
it. The weapon was brought to the
station and proved to be made out of
a broom handle. Officer Calvin made
the arrest.

ROUGH HOUSE AT BELOIT
STUDENT DENUDED AND SWITCHED
THROUGH STREETS.

BELoIT, Wis, Oct. 6.-George f.
Stockwell, student in the preparatory
department of Beloit college, was en-
tfced from his room at the house of
President Eaton at an early hour this
morning by members of the middle
preparatory class. He was overpower-
ed, Invested of every article of clothing
and compelled to walk ahead of a score
of bowling students, aided by the appli-
cation of switches in the hands of his
tormentors. His clothing was fastened
to the top of fagpole, and after he
had been sufficiently ''disciplined,'' he
was allowed to go home to plan revenge
The outrage is the climax of a number
of class fights this year, in which the
worst punishment inflicted heretofore
was compelling students to walk into
town after having been driven far into
the country.
The faculty will probably take no ac-
ton on this mornings occurrences, ow-
ing to the fact that the perpetrators CT
the deed are unknown and the members
of Stockwell's class have taken matters
in their own hands. Stockwen lives in
Cherry Valley, Ill.,. and has no enemies
in the school.

.STASSELS is DEAD
STRANGER FouND THURSDAY IN
UNION DEPOT NEVER REGAIN
ED CONSCIOUSNESS
NO TRACE OF HIS RELATIVES
Letter From Stephen stasseIs, of
Chicago, Found, but No Word
Has Been Received
B'r IN Him.

AFTER remaining unconscious three days.
John Stassels,a the stranger picked up
at the Union depot Thursday evening by
Ct1lcer Puglesa, and later taken to the
city hospital died at 4 o'clock yester-
DAY AFTERNOON without anything being
ascertalned about him, his family or his
destination. His death is surrounded
with mystery and in spite of the re-
peateo efforts of the doctors at the city
hospital to bring him back to conscious
ness, he slowly sank until yesterday af-
ternoen when the end came.
lie was alone, had no friends in the
! city, and so far no trace of any relatives
Eas been found Who he was, what he
was doing in st. Paul or where he was
going will probably remain a mystery,
unless investigation reveals the facts.
1t is not known what caused his death,
but it is thought by the physicians at
the hospital that he died from either
Inflammation of the brain or as the result
OF insanity. An autopsy will probably
be held on the remains.
Inc only marks of Identification found
on the dead man was a letter addressed
to him from Stephen Stassels, 1857
Indiana avenue, Chicago, Ill - No word
has been received from this man, how
ever He. also had a baggage check
from Cando, N. D., over the Great North
ern, and another check over the Milwau-
kee road to Chicago.
The supposition is advanced that Stas-
sells was on his way to see his brother
at Chicago and that he was demented.
He looked to be a man about thirty live
years old
When Officer Puglesa found him roam
ing around the Union depot Thursday
evening he acted strangely and did not
seem to understand anything. The Off
Ger was unable to find out anything
about the man around the depot, and
he relapsed in Inconsistencies while be-
ing taken to the hospital.

STILLANOTHERN NAME
DANIEL KELLY IS THE LATEST
COUNTY COMMISSIONER
POSSIBILITY
HAS A SPLENDID RECORD
Served on the Board for Three Con-
secutive Terms and Did Much
to Reduce the Tax
Rate.

While c. J. Weyl and John Arend con-
tinue to occupy the center of the arena
in the race for the vacant county COM
miSsionership, the dark horse still finds
admirers and in sufficient quantity to
cause predictions that one of his num-
her will be the winner.
The latest candidate in this respect
offered is Daniel Kelly, whom friends
contend has much that commends him
for the vacancy. Mr.. Kelly is one of
st. Paul's old settlers, he is a business
man, beiSg at present engaged in hand
ling real estate and his friends say has
record that is without blemish For
theree consecutive terms he served on
the board as a commissioner and as a.
record can point to the fact that the
taxes during his incumbency were the
lowest in the history of the city. When
he became a member the rate was So
certs on the dollar, and when he retired
in 1880 it was 13 mills.
While not an avowed candidate. Mr.
kely's friends say he would fill the
office if elected and bring from an un-
questionable past the enlightment that
a taX-burdened public has long desired.
Mr.. Kelly is a Democrat and it is
claimed would be acceptable to the
assembly and the Republican members
of the board if his name was offered
Friends are now making an effort to
secure the tender of his name at the
next meeting of the board of aldermen.

FAITH IN SOCIALISM
G. HI LOCKWOOD, OF MINNEAPOLIS.
LECTURES ON PRESENT La
BOR CONDITIONS
TO PRODUCER THE PRODUCT
In Principles He Expounded Solu-
ton of Existing Social Problems
Rap at High SaIaried
Preachers.

c. III. Lockwood, Of Minneapolis, ad-
dressed a meeting of the St. Paul Demo
cratic Socialist party at Pfeifers hall
yesterday afternoon. Mr.. Lockwood took
for his theme "Anarchism versus Social
ism,'' but did not devote much of his
time to- the discussion of anarchy. In
fact, the only reference made to the
system was in regard to the anarchists
as they are generally regarded, en-
ploying violence against rulers and gov
ernments. Of the theory of anarchy he
had little to say and confined himself
almost solely to an attack upon the pres
ent social system. He stated that the
Socialists were the only people who had
a solution for the existing evils as a re-
suit of the differences of labor. and CAPT.
tai. "To the producer belongs the prod
uct' is his creed, regardless of the cir
cumStanceS surrounding the production
of an article, and from his views it would
seem that a man could not receive prop
er wages for his work except under a
cooperative system of economies
He stated that over per cent of the
population in the country was in dire dis
tress and actually suffering for the ne
cessities of life This statement was rath-
er incredulously received by the audi
ence.
Another thing the speaker tried to i'm
press upon the minds of the workingrnan
was what ne termed the distinction of
classes.
Socialism, as Mr.. Lockwood sees it. is
a remedy for every existing evil. Under
its system everyone would be contented
and happy and he thought that the ply
steal health of the country would be
greatly improved He hoped to see the
time come when no man will have to
work in coal mine or an ore mine, be-
cause it is unhealthy work. Just how
he is going to produce these articles with
out mining he does not state.
The meeting was quite well attended
and Mr. Lockwood had number of
caricature drawings that he used in the
course of his lecture. One was an attack
upon the clergymen of the larger
churches, whom sne designated as .'pul-
pit Founders. He called these men who
preached in fashionable and large
churches hypocrites and in fact made
severe attack upon them, after stat
ing that the Socialists interfered with no
mans religion and welcomed 'Jew and
Gentle, Catholic and Christian, Mater
ialist and Spiritualist, alike to it's folds. :"

ON HIS WAY EAST
SENATOR BEVERIDGE, OF INDIANA,
PASSES THROUGH TWIN
CITIES
HIS STAY WAS A BRIEF ONE
Breakfasted in Minneapolis and
Then Came to st Paul,
Where He Took u
Train.
HIS STAY WAS A BRIEF ONE

Senator Beveridge, Of Indiana, was in
the Twin Cities for a few hours yester-
day morning, on his way east from the
Pacific coast. He stopped off at Min
neapolis for a short time taking break
fast at the West and calling on Bishop
Joyce. He found the bishop away, and
remained few minutes talking to Mrs.
Joyce. After lunch he came to ST. Paul,
and left for Chicago almost Immediately,
not remaining long, enough to call on Ell
ther Senator Clapp or Congressman Ste
vens.
The senator has just returned from a
SIX months trip through Russia, Man
churia. China and the Philippines, and
while on the coast spoke of his trip as
follows:
American commerce with the Orient
must in time take the first place, be-
cause we are nearer the Orient than is
any other nation
The senator hestated to speak of the
Eastern question in an interview.
''To speak with an intelligence of the
far Eastern question, so vast and i'm
portant, seems difficult and almost inn
possible in the discursive methods of an
interview. It is question in which the
American people already feel very keen
interest. 1t is a question of paramount
Importance to US, because our markets
are involved.
''To the Orient the great Northwest
must look for greater prosperity. 1t is
the Orient which must relieve the coun-
try of the whole of it's surplus. I do not
presume to doubt that the isthmian ca
nal will be built This will make Ameri-
can trade with the entire Orient, in course
of time, the largest of any nation. But
whether this canal is built or not Amer
lean commerce with the Orient must in
time take first place, because we are
nearer the Orient than is any other ma
ton.
All this on the assumption that the
ports of the Orient will be kept open to
American goods To keep them open and
to increase the markets which the ports
supply is the problem in the great and
vexed and complicated Eastern question.
They will not remain open of their own
accord
