SCHULTZ IS SHORT
COUNTY ABSTRACT CLERK OWES
RAMSEY A SMALL BILL
OF 500
SAYS HE WILL MAKE IT UP
Mr.. SchuIze Finds That His Office
Pays Very Poorly Since 1t
Was Placed on Fee
Basis.

According to a report submitted yes
terday to the county commissioners,
John H. Schulze, county abstract clerk,
owes Ramsey county $500. He is short
that amount in his accounts.
The investigation which was made by
a special committee appointed by the
board, and Frank Moosbrugger, an ex-
pert accountant, dates from Jan. l, 1899,
when Mr.. Schulze became abstract clerk
under a salary amounting to $4,000 a year
and clerk hire down to Jan. T. 1901, when
the office was placed upon a fee basis.
During the two years of Mr. Schulze's
incumbency the report shows that fees
to the amount of $4281.30 were collected,
but all the county treasurer received was
$3,3S1.10 The amount COLLECTED included
$5.O5 for two abstracts made for James
E. Hewitt, but no entry of it could be
found on the books.
On Jan. last Mr.. Schulze was in the
countys debt to the amount of $500 20,
but $500 of this was paid last month and
the shortage was accordingly reduced to
$70020
Acting on his own responsibility, Mr..
Schulze did a large credit business and
this stands forth on the books in the
shape of uncollected accounts amount
ing to $S02.25. which, if accepted by the
county, will only leave him to pay 1896. 95.
Commissioner Whitehorn, after hear
ing the report, was inclined to think
that the county should accept the uncol-
lected accounts, but he found few sup
porters and a resolution was finally
passed instructing County Auditor John
son to demand, without delay the entire
amount from Mr.. Schulze. This will be
done today.
From all accounts Mr.. Schulze has
been having anything but profitable
time ever since the office was placed on
fee basis, January last. Previous to
that he received 5000 a. year and clerk
hire, but now all he gets is Is cents a
name and other trivial compensation,
which, judging from the number Of abb
stracts turned out is hardly sufficient to
pay for the light and heat consumed.
Competition on the outside, it is said,
has literally killed the Office as a money
maker for the county.
Mr.. Scnulze does not seen to be wor-
ried about the shortage. He says 1t is
trivial matter and the county will get
all that is coming to it. He is bonded by
the Fidelity and Guarantee company for
$500. .

STRIKE ON THE READING
COMPANY'S TRAFFIC TIED UP
MEN STILL HOLDING OUT.

READING, Pa, July S.-The strike OF
Philadelphia & Reading Railroad COM
pany freight handlers Is still on. The
company has over 1C0 cars blocking traffic
in it's yards here. The strikers have re-
ceived word from Wayne Junction, near
Philadelphia, and Newberry Junction,
near Williamsport, the only points along
the line where the company is in a po-
sition to reload it's freight, that the men
there will refuse to allow that work to
be done at either point.
In their grievances addressed to the
company, the men have requested that
their wages be advanced from IA to Is
cents an hour They want a nine-hour
day, and ask for double time for over
time on Sundays and holidays, and time
and half on other overtime.
The engine "hostlers," who are en-
ployed in handling the locomotives in
the yards have addressed a letter to
Supt. Prince, asking for an advance in
wages.
The Reading Iron company strike, in
volving $500 men, is stln unsettled.
The 1850 Reading railway shop hands
are still out, not a man having returned
today. They are to meet this afternoon
to vote on the proposition submitted by
Acting President Welsh yesterday.
Acting President WEIGH sent another
offer to the striking shopmen this after
noon. He extends the time for them to
return to work until tomorrow and offers
to pay them three days wages, for last
Friday and Saturday and today He
asks the freight handlers to return to-
morrow also, and promises that their
grievances shall be fairly considered
The striking snopmen held a long ses-
sion this afternoon and agreed to reject
both offers of Acting President Welsh.
1t was decided to stand out for better
terms

In Labor's Field.

The weekly meeting of the Building
Trades council, held at Assembly hail
last night, was we'll attended, each af-
filiated union being represented by a
good number of delegate. An amendment
to article 3, section /, was proposed BY
the Painters union, providing that esSSi
afhiated union should be represented BY
two delegates, instead of representation
by taxation, as at present An amend
ment to article 4, section |, was also
read for the first time providing that the
business agent should be made regu-
lar officer of the council and elected in
the same manner and at the same time,
as all other officers. Both amendments
were laid over for two weeks in order to
give all unions represented in the council
an opportunity to take vote upon the
same. A tWo-thirds vote, of all unions is
necessary to insure their adoption. G,
W. Pollock and ]. Hobecker were seated
as delegates from the Painters union
The picnic committee made a partial re-
port and was granted further time in
which to make a final report. The Paint
ers' union was granted two weeks fur
ther time to take out the quota of work
ing cards. Bills to the amount of $50
were allowed.

PUZZLED The JURY
HOLLEMBECK TRAGEDY RECON-
MENDED FOR FURTHER IN
VESTIGAITON.

Under the direction of Coroner A. w.
Miller an inquest over the remains of
Mrs. Essie Hollembeck, the woman who
was found dying from poisoning at her
home, rs Front street, Friday night, was
held at the county morgue last evening.
From the start the testimony was con-
flicting, and nothing positive as to the
way in which the woman secured the poi
son was established A number of wit
nesses were heard, among whom was the
dead womans husband. He testified that
he never knew until Friday night that his
wife was a morphine fiend. From all
that could be learned from the evidence
it seemed that the woman had secured
the wrong drug in attempting to get
laudanum, but how, and from whom she
secured it, was not shown.
After some elaboration the jury
returned a verdict saying THAT Essie
Hollembeck came to her death from an
irritant poison self administered, and, we
the jury recommend further investiga-
ton by the proper authorities" Tho
jurors were John w. Hopkins, Philip
Walker, Robert A. Stevenson, w. G.
Gregory, Charles ]. Valid and John
O'Brien.

suit that instead of coming down to the
Metropolitan last evening to play the
part of Alice in "Sapho,' Miss Countiss
packed her trunks and telephoned her
resignation. The resignation was ac-
cepted, but before things are definitely
arranged L. N. Scott, of the Metropol-
itan, must be consulted and he will not
be home until this morning. Miss Coun-
tiss hints darkly at a lawyer being en-
gagged, but just why his services will be
necessary she does not explain.

said Mr.. Mcguire to the Glob last
evening. l engaged her to play sec

Yes, l have resigned, and I shall not

they are too good musicians not to klow

ENTITLED TO FRANCHISE.
North American Telegraph Com
pany Has Certain Rights.

City Engineer Claussen is in receipt Of
a communication advising him that moth.
ing further be done in the matter Of
ordering the North American Telegraph
company's wires underground until an
investigation has been made.
The right of the company to under
ground privileges depends largely upon
it's statement that it has purchased the
rights OF the National Subway company.
The controversy brings up a difficult
question to solve. If the company is
given an underground franchise, the char
ter demands a per cent gross earnings
tax, but this company may not wish
to pay. They have an overhead franz
be taken from them. The city has or
dered that all wires overhead in the busi-
ness district must come down, and as the
North American wires are among the
number place must be provided for
them.

In answer to many inquiries concerning

Forbes has compiled a circular in which
ne advises the old method Of blowing
burrows, and thus preventing their ad-

Clean fields, he says, discourage chinch
bugs, and If farmers would bear this
in mind there would be little trouble
from the pest. Regarding the fungus
disease of the chinch bugs, he says en-
