IT'S VIVA. STEWARD
Identity Of the Man Drowned Yes
terday Established.
NO CAUSE FOR SUICIDE KNOWN
His Accounts Are Straight and His
Domestic Relations Have
Been Pleasant.

William A. Steward, aged 26, son of G..
W. Steward, S4O0 Blaisdell avenue, was
the young man who lost his life in the
tail-race of the canal near the Galaxy mill
yesterday afternoon. The fedora hat,
found on the bank by the police, provided
means for Identification. No cause for
the suicide is known. His relations at
home were happy and his accounts with
the Jones Mcintyre company, with which
he was employed as bookkeeper, are in
satisfactory condition The body has not
been recovered, although the search has
been continuous since the drowning was
reported to the police.
Mr.. Steward was at his desk yesterday
morning and followed the usual routine
during the forenoon. Shortly before noon
he started for bank to make a deposit.
This done, he evidently went directly to
the river, stopping at Washington and
Sixth avenues to. drop the bank book in
a mail box. The book was taken up by
the postman, who took it with his mail to
the postoffice. This morning it was re-
turned to the Jones' Mcintyre company.
When the book reached the manager
in that way, he telephoned Mr.. Steward,
the young mans father, who is fuel
dealer at II East Lake street, and learned
that the son had not been home since
yesterday morning. The hat was taken to
the Office and identified.
Young Steward was Of studious habits
and was a faithful employe, according to
his employers. He had been with that
company for a little more than year.

VORIES TO MANAGE
Takes Charge of Lillibridge-Brem-

AND S. D. WORKS IS PROMOTED
Geo. s. Works, Manager of Kennedy
Agency-ImpOrtRnt Changes by
American Biscuit Co.

A. L. Worries of St. Paul has assumed
management Of the Minneapolis Lilli-
bridge -Bremner factory Of the National
Biscuit company This change is in line
with several promotions which went into
effect at the same time. s. D. Works,
former manager, becomes assistant man
ager of the manufacturing department of
the company. George S. Works, former
assistant manager Of the Lillibridge-
Bremner factory, becomes manager of the
Kennedy agency of the National Biscuit
company, vice A. G. Penfield, who is put
in charge of the sales department Of the
Llllibridge- Bremner factory.
Mr.. Worries is a brother OF H. F. Worries,
vice president Of the national company.
He remains in charge of the st. Paul
branch, but will have headquarters in this
city.
Samuel D. Works has been assigned to
an important place with the general com
pany and will have all the manufacturing
plants under his jurisdiction.
George S. Works, who goes to the Ken
nedy agency on Fourth street N, is we'll
known in the business. He has practically
had charge of the local branch for two
years. Mr.. Works has been with the Lii
libridge company for twenty-four years

uing in various positions with H. F. Lii
libridge & Co. and the Lillibridge- -Brem-
ner company. For seven years he ran
the retail department and later was cash
ier. When the National Biscuit company
absorbed the plant he remained in charge
and was later made assistant manager.

SNAP ON CITATIONS

$so5 CHARGED FOR A So JBo
Citations for u Bank Were Served
Individually ON Stockholders
Thus Swelling Fees.

Another form of overcharge has been
revealed by the investigation of Sheriff
Philip Megaarden's books. Some months
ago, back in his first administration, he
was given tax warrant to levy on the
property Of the Northwestern National
bank. He returned the warrant with the
report that he could find nothing on which
to levy, although the bank is one of the
strongest in the city, and its stockholders
are men of wealth.
Next in order he received a citation
running to the stockholders of the bank
To have served one copy on some official
Of the bank would have been all suff-
cient, which Megaarden as an attorney
should have known. Instead however, he
served the citation on all the stockholders
he could find and sent in bill for the
county of $305.30, when all he should have
demanded was 50. In addition, the stock
holders had to pay him $40 or $1.30 EACH
All he could have collected was $1.30 for
one service on the bank. The county will
endeavor to collect the overcharge and it
is assumed that the stockholders Of the
Northwestern National bank will apply
for the. overcharges made.

HAS ONE EYE OPEN
W. J. Bryan's Opinion of w. D.
Washburn's Trust Views.
SET FORTH IN THE CoMMoNER
Mr.. Bryan Thinks That When the
Senator Opens the Other Eye
He'll See More.

Special to The Journal.
Lincoln, Neb., Nov. 2.-Under the cap
tion "One Eye Open" w. J. Bryan dis
cusses in this weeks Commoner the at
titude Of Senator w. D. Washburn OF Min
neapolis on the trusts. He says:
When Mr. Bryan spoke at Minneapolis,
during the campaign of 1896, former Senator
Washburn addressed a letter to him asking
certain questions. 1t was an unusual thing
for a man of Mr.. Washburns prominence to
inject himself into public speech, but Mr.
Bryan read his letter at the meeting and re-
sponded to it. 1t seems that Mr.. Washburn
is getting acquainted with the trust question.
In a recent interview he discusses the sub
ject with intelligence and even vehemence. It
is gratifying to note some evidence Of revolt
among the republicans, who are responsible
for an administrative policy that permits the
trusts to thrive and fatten upon people at
large. The Commoner is glad to give circula-
ton to the following extract from Mr..
Washburn's interview:
Steel rails can be manufactured to-day at
fair profit and sold at $3.50 a ton. At that
price the rail mills would make a larger
profit on their product than the Touring mills
would make by a profit of 10 cents barrel
on four-which the Touring mills would be

MAKING SOCIETY BETTER
PRACTICAL WORK BEING DONE
DE-. w. H. TOlman Reviews COndi-
tiOns in This Country and
Abroad.

DR.. William H. Tolman OF New York
secretary Of the League for Social Service,
in his lecture at the First Unitarian
church last evening on Social and In
dustrial Betterment," said that although
it was clearly evident that Europe was in
advance of America in recognizing the
need Of industrial betterment, this coun-
try was gradually awakening to its i'm
portance. America now has her great
captains Of industry and the wealth. There
Is a steady growth Of the genuine altruis-
tic spirit. That there Is an identity of
interests which ought to obtain between
capital and labor is slowly being recog-
nized. Manufacturers who have put plans
into operation for the improvement of the
condition Of their employees have found
the new way profitable and most satisfac-
tory from every standpoint. 1t has re-
suited in better employees and better serv-
ice. DR.. Tolman believes that the country
is being hurried on to some wise settle
ment of the differences that have existed
between capital and labor, between en-
ployer and employe. The strike is becom-
ing recognized as too costly for both ele-
ments. In various cities and sections of
the United States and Europe employers
have solved the problem to the satisfac-
ton of themselves and their employees.
DR.. Tolman advised Minneapolis employ
DR.. Tolman's lecture is illustrated with
photo-opticon views. He treats entirely
of successful experiments by employers
in lettering the condition of their en-
ployes and creating genuine community
of interest. He told of his observations
along this line in England, Holland, Ger
many and France, as we'll as this coun-
try. The earliest forms Of betterment in
many places took the shape of convenient
and clean cottages and grounds at very
low rentals, covering only the cost of
repairs and taxes.
DR.. Tolman said that the League for
Social Service Of New York city, Of which
he is director, is a clearing house for
good theory and successful experiments in
this line OF work. The league collects
valuable information from all parts of the
world relating to social and industrial
betterment and supplies it to employers
or any people interested in the work.
