NOT ENOUGH PERMITS
ANOTHER ELEVATOR EXAMINATION
MAY BE GRANTED
At Present There Are Not Sufficient
Certificated Operators to At
tend to the City's
Needs.

st. Paul is now credited with 1872 ele-
vator operators who hold certificates as
required by law, but as yet no steps have
been taken by the authorities to enforce
the law to the extent of prosecuting those
who are operating lifts without the nee
essary permit.
The building inspectors department,
which has this matter in charge, say
they fear rigid enforcement would work
a hardship as at present the supply of
men, lawfully equipped, is really less
than the number of elevators actually
in operation. but I will hold another
examination in about two weeks said
Building Inspector Wheeler yesterday,
.tand after that those who violate the
law will have to suffer the consequences.
[ have about dozen applications and
would prefer to give them the examira-
lion direct, but the law has been interpre-
ted to demand public notice of the same
and this can only be done by, holding the
examinations at stated times"
After this year Mr.. Wheeler saws, ex-
aminations will be held at stated inter
walls, probably three months apart. With
the law only applicable TO cities having a
population over $1,000 and the licenses in
force only good in the cities they are
issued in, many claim the law to be IN
constitutional, and the building depart
ment looks for a test case the first time
some Of the men are arrested.

NEW WAY SUGGESTED
BOARD OF WORKS TO COMPLETE
PRELIMINARY PAVING Or
DERS THIS WINTER.
SAVES MANY LONG DELAYS
Under Present System Routine Pro-
cedure Prevents Much Neces-
sary Work From Being
Done.

Between legal quibbling and contro-
versies arising from the late paving war,
st. PauFs yearly mileage of paved streets
has been greatly curtailed but If
scheme now decided upon by the board
or public works holds good, the deficit
Will be more than made up next year.
The regular paving season generally ex-
tends from April l to Oct. Is and in this
short space of time every detail con.
nected with the work is carried out in
Guiding hearings, assessments and the
award of contract, with a possibility Of
the latter being knocked out by the coun-
Gil. These preiminaries generally occupy
months, the refusal of the council to give
their approval, as has been evidenced in
number of cases during the present
year, bringing their work to naught
Under the new scheme which has been
decided upon by the board these prelim-
inaries will be attended to during the win
ter. so that as soon as the regular season
opens, the paving of the designated
streets alone will engross' their attention
Had this scheme been in, operation last
winter, double the mileage of streets
would have been paved This year.
In another week the Board hopes to
nave the order for the paving of Selby
avenue complete and Immediately on it's
passage by the council will call for bids
for the paving of both Selby avenue and
South WabaSha street. AS relic of the
late paving controversy the board had
on its hands the unapproved orders, both
preliminary and final, for the paving OF
robert street, jackson street, Payne ave.
nue., Central Park place and a number of
others and it is their intention to go to
work on them at once, instead of waiting
until spring. If given passage by the
council, bids can be called for this year
and work started as soon as the season
opens next year.
By enabling contractors to bid on a
large amount of work at one time the
board is of the opinion that better paw
Ing figures can be obtained.

FALLS DOWN A SHAFT
HENRY ZINDELI SERIOUSLY IN
JURED YESTERDAY.

Henry Zindel, employed by the Minne-
sofa Canning company, 81 East Isabel
street, was seriously injured about 4:3O
yesterday afternoon by falling fifteen
feet down an elevator shaft at the fac
tory. He was taken to the city hospital,
where it was found that he had frac-
tured the base of his skull Zindel is
"a years old and lives at lis West Fair
field avenue.
He had taken the freight elevator from
the basement to the first floor,
where he got off to get something.
While he was, gone one of the other
employees ran the elevator down into the
basement and forgot to shut the gate.
Zindel came back and, thinking the ele-
vator was still standing where he left
it, stepped into the opening and fell to
the bottom, distance of, fifteen feet.
He was picked up unconscious and taken
tosthe city hospital where it was stated
last evening that they thought he would
recover.

BANKS MUST PAY up
STATE BOARD OF EQUALIZATION
RAISES ASSESSMENTS ON
SEVERAL
HIT TWIN CITY INSTITUTIONS
Several ST. Paul and Minneapolis
Banks Are Raised 25 Per Cent
state Institutions Suffer
More Severely.

Bank assessments occupied the entire
time of the state board of equalization
yesterday, and when an adjournment
was finally taken at o'clock it was
found that only the national and state
banks had been disposed of, and the pr1-
vate banks still remained to be consid-
cred
Representatives of some of the banks
whose assessed valuations the board had
proposed to raise were on hand to make
their protests, but for the greater part
their efforts did not effect any change
of heart on the part of the board. f.
M. Prince, vice president of the First
National of Minneapolis, consumed nc ar
ly the entire morning with an argu-
ment against proposed increase of 5 per
cent on the assessment of the stock of
that institution. The bank is assessed
for $525, 454, and the intended increase
was based upon 1884, 900 of stock which
was not included, for the reason, as
Mr.. Prince explained, that it was owned
by the Fire and Marine company of st.
Paul, the MilleHssr and Manufacturers In
surance company eof st. Paul and the
First National bank of, Winona; and pre-
sumably had been taxed in the coun-
ties where it was held. Mr.. Prince said
that the district court of Hennepin
county had already held that stock
owned elsewhere could not be taxed in
that county and that it would be mani
testify unjust to expect the resident stock
holders to pay tax upon the. $4,000 of
stock owned outside the county as well
as upon their own.
Attorney General Douglas advised the
board that in his opinion an assessment
against the $4,000 in Hennepin county
would stand and that he was confident
the judgment of the district court IS
quoted by Mr.. Prince would not hold be-
fore the supreme court. The increase
was allowed to remain.
The valuation of the stock of the
Northwestern National bank of Minne-
apolis was increased $3.50, 000, which is a
raise of Is per cent upon the figures as
submitted. An addition of 25 per cent
was also made to the valuation of the
bank of ST Paul, which increases its
figures $4,000. An 80 per cent increase
which amounts to $4,000, was made In
the figures of the Goodhue County bank,
of Red Wing; and a so per cent increase
amounting to $4,000, in those of the First
National bank of Austin.
Other increases made in the course of
the day were as follows: Bank of
Easton, Easton, 100 per cent; Bank of
fillmore, 30 per cent; Faribault County
bank of Winnebago City, so per cent;
Chatfeld bank, 100 per cent; Stock Yards
bank, South st. Paul, Is per cent; State
Bank of Keister, Faribault county, 100
per cent; State Bank of Heron Lake
40 per cent ~
The First National of Cloquet and the
State bank of Waterville were each re-
duced 40 per cent

]. H. BURNS IN COURT
FORMER COUNTY AUDITOR HAS
HEARING ON TAX REFUND
MENT CHARGES
CASE CONTINUED FOR A MONTH
No Defense Is Entered to Charge
That Fraudulent transactions
Can Be PrOved-Defended
by DOnneIly.

Former County Auditor James H.
Burns, charged with defrauding the coun-
ty of Sl36.33 by means of false represen-
tations to the board of county commits
sioners, had a preliminary hearing in
the police court yesterday morning. Burns
was represented by Stan Donnelly and
County Attorney Kane had charge of
the case for the state.
Burns appeared in court with his at
torney but did not introduce any evil
dence in defense, and by consent the mat
ter was continued until October 70. This
was done in order to save the trouble
of securing new bondsmen and is prac-
tically equivalent to beng held over to
the grand jury which meets October l.
The property involved In the trans
action is lot q block Z, DeBow Smith
RiSque and Williams addition to St
Paul. 1t is alleged that Burns induced
Carl DuciuS to sign an application for
the refundment of taxes on this prop
erty under the false representation that
Ducius held the delinquent tax certif-
Gates as owner of the property, and that,
under these representations, the county
auditor issued a warrant for $42S, which
sum included the $196.
In presenting the states side of the
case County Attorney Kane said the
state would prove that Ducius never
owned the property nor held the refund
ment certificates and that the represen-
tations upon which the refundment was
secured were felonious and fraudulent
Deputy County Auditor James Drum
mond was the first witness called by
Mr.. Kane, and he identified the records
and told of the workings of the office
The minutes of the board of county COM
missioners- show that five certificates
were audited by the tax commission in
favor of Carl Ducius at meeting held
by that committee on April Is last The
records show that Ducius or Burns never
had anything to do with the property.
Ducius testified that he was &c years
old and married. He had been asked by
Burns to sign the petitions for refund
ment and he signed them April 13. Burns
told him everything was all right This

M'CARDY is WRONG
APPROPRIATION FOR STREET IN
TERsECTIONs MUST BE MADE

In an opinion given yesteday Assistant
Corporation Attorney Griggs holds that
Comptroller McCardy is wrong in hold
ing up the warrant which~provides for
the paving Of street intersections on West
Seventh street, out of the general fund.
The amount in question, 5000, was
for the city's share of the work. Mr.
McCardy claimed that the records did
not show any assessment against the
city, though his principal objection was
that concerning payment out of the gen
eral fund.
The order indorsing the payment of the
warrant was passed by the council and
its act was entirely in accordance with
the charter, says Mr. Griggs. Mr.. Nc
Cardy says that the general fund is ex-
hausted, but Mr.. Griggs thinks that if
he makes a careful search he will find
money to pay the bill
