MANY HORSESSTAMPEDE
EXCITING SCENES ON WEST THIRD
STREET YESTERDAY MORNING.
Fatalities Averted by Presence of
Mind of Jake Pitcher, Driver
for st. Paul Lake Ice
Company.

The presence of mind of Jake Pitcher,
a driver for the st. Paul Lake Ice com
pany, averted what might have resulted
in several fatalities, following a STAN
pede of horses on the public market, on
West Third street about o'clock yes
terday morning. AS it was, the casual
ties were a slight injury to William
Bettcher, of Lake Como. and the partial
demolition of five wagons.
1t was Just at the time of the morning
when both sides of the street, from Mar
ket TO st. Peter streets, are filed with
the wagons of market gardeners, and at
the extreme end Of the row toward st.
Peter street stood a wagon and team be-
longing to Peter Koch. For some rea-
son the horses became frightened and
springing to one side struck a team be-
longing to Henry Wallace The latter
team also became scared, and, jumping
out into the middle of the thoroughfare,
dashed up the street with the team be-
longing to Koch following close behind.
81 The two heavy wagons swaying along
the center of the street, frightened the
other teams, and in a few moments the
entire street was in a tumult. the rearing
and frenzied animals making the street
unsafe.
Jake Pitcher. who was standing on the
curbstone beside his ice wagon, was at
tracted by the cries of Runaway" that
at the same time, and on looking up
the street say the maddened animals
coming toward him
in moment he had grabbed the reins
OF his horses and drove them so that the
heavy ice wagon blocked the path of the
runaway teams, which stopped as soon
as they came to the wagon. A number
of other horses which had followed suit
stopped also. If the sudden stop had not
been made when it was the stampede
might have resulted in loss of human life,
as well as an enormous destruction of
property and garden truck
On investigation it was found that
nearly dozen wagons had been damaged
more or less, some Of them being over
turned, spilling the contents on the
ground
William Bettcher, driving in a buggy,
could not get out of the way His rig
was caught between two of the wagons,
and he was thrown out, sustaining slight
bruises His horse, however, was hurt
quite badly.

CLIFFORD BARRED OUT
CANNOT DO BUSINESS IN COUNTY
AUDITORS OFFICE.

AS a result of difference of opinion,
Charles E. Clifford, a dealer in real es-
te.and tax titles. was yesterday inform
ed by County Auditor Johnson that he
could no longer do business behind the
counter of the office.
1t appears that Clifford holds a tax
title against the homestead of Mrs.
Mary De Lemere, and that he is about
to bring suit to have her elected from
her home.
Yesterday MI. Johnson informed Clifford
that the accumulation of taxes against
the property was the result of Mrs. De
Lemcre's ignorance of the law, and he
asked that she be allowed to tal1 UP the
certificate on paying the II per cent in
terest.
This he refused to do, when some words
were exchanged, with the result that Cliff
ford was barred from going behind the

ORGANIZE TO PREVENT ABOLISH
= ING OF, THEIR BUSINESS.

In order to head off the passage of the
ordinance. doing away with the festive
hotel runner, the local members of that
fraternity have formed an organization,
and secured an attorney who will fight
for the purpose of securing its defeat.
The license fee of hotel runners is $25
a year, and the sum yearly generally
amounts to about $3.50. Some of them
have lately taken out permits, and even
if the ordinance is passed, they say, the
city will have to recognize them for the
period for which they were granted.
On the other hand, the commercial or
ganizations are equally determined that
the runner will have to go, and both
sides are collecting evidence in behalf
of their respective arguments.

this reason an extra appropriation was
asked and was granted
Mr.. McCardy, in refusing his sanction,
says there is no money available for this
purpose. AS a result much of the work
on hand will have to go by default.

The coroners jury which Investigated
the death of Emil Hermann, the young
man killed by the machinery of a sand
dredge at work on the union depot ill,
on the river front Tuesday morning,

workmen. Further. the jury found that
the dead man came to his death by com
ing in contact with the winch-head and
two ropes, one of which holds the dredge
IN position, and the other holding the
scow to the dredge. The clause in regard
to the guard read as follows: THE
winchhead and shaft projecting therefrom
were in no way guarded. and that in our

THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.


Washington, Nov. 27.-President
Roosevelt has, It is said, decided not
to incorporate IN his message the
recommendations of the cabinet Off
GERS that usually form n part of the
document, but to have them pub
lished as an appendix. This will ma
terially shorten the message proper,
and as IL is now blocked out 1t will
not make more than 10000 words,
Reciprocity, the trusts and Cuba are
the subjects that will command the
largest share Of the presidents at
tention. He will urge upon congress
the wisdom Of negotiating reciproc-
ity treaties upon a protection basis,
The publication of the doings of the
so-called trusts in order that the evil
dence will be at hand for prosecuting
them in case they violate the law,
and the making of commercial
treaty with Cuba. The president will
also have considerable TO say about
the Importance and necessity Of
amending the interstate commerce
law so that the government will have
power to enforce 1t, which II appar-
emily does not have now, but there
will be no specific legislation recon-
mended for this purpose,

business men gathered yesterday aft

chamber Of commerce's general invi.
tation to hear seymour Bell, the com.

Great Britain was being cut out Of

attributed this to Great Britain's
backwardness in using labor saving

clared the working classes Of Great
