FRANK BATTLEY OUT
CUSTODIAN OF THE COURT HOUSE
is SUHTMARILY RE-
MOVED
]. W. cRAMsIE Is APPOINTED
Discharged Man Makes a Vigorous
Protest, and Demanded an
InvestigatiOn-Got Lit
tie Satisfaction.

Frank Battley, custodian of the city
hall and court house, no longer enjoys
! that title. AT a, meeting of the COM
mission held at noon yesterday Mr..
Bailey was summarily removed and
John w. Cramsie, a brotner-in-Iaw of
Commissioner Haas, appointed to the
place.
The method of decapitation, a secret
meeting, angered Mr.. Bailey, and that
official on the reassembling of the mem
bers, proceeded to administer a roast
in which the word sneak and a few
choice remarks figured extensively.
Mr.. Battley in speaking to the gather
ing, addressed his remarks to Mayor
Smith, who, he said, had asked him to
resign because charges had been prefer
red against him. The charges he declared
untrue and vigorously demanded an in
vestigation.
Mayor Smith informed him that no
charges were preferred the commission
had right to remove him if it wanted
to and for that reason had used it's pre-
rogative.
This, however, would not satisfy Mr.
Battley and for fully fifteen minutes
he kept UP his remarks. until asked to
sit down. He was represented by w.
j. Sullivan, and on Mr. Battley subsid-
ing, that gentleman arose and demanded
for his client a fair hearing. If politics
was the cause of it all. he said, he had
nothing to say, but if MI Battley's rep
utation was at stake, then a hearing
would be demanded
No one gave any satisfaction and adj
Journment came, not, however, without
some side remarks from Mr. Battley,
who intimated that he would be aveng-
ed
Mr.. Battley severed his connections
as custodian of the big building last
night, and today Mr. Cramsie will be in
charge. Yesterday evening Mr. Cramsie,
in charge of Commissioner Haas was be-
ing shown over the building, and intro
duced to those who will hereafter be
under him.
What changes will be made, is not
known. Mr.. Cramsie last evening re-
fused to say what he would do, but there
is an uneasy feeling among some Of the
employees that a few of their number
will have to go. Commissioner Bantz
has repeatedly bemoaned the fact that
his selections always failed of appoint
nent, and the supposition is that he will
be on top this time.

The statement was made by a number
of the aldermen yesterday that the paw

saying that ne had been informed that
the Barber people We're making every
effort to bring about an agitation for

PETITION FOR PARDON
G. w. WOLFE, OFF BRAINERD,
HOPES TO SECURE LIBERTY
Chances Are Dubious, ThOugh-His
Request for Arrest of Alleged
CuIprit Is Not En-
tertained.

G. w. Wolfe the Grow Wing lumber
man who was last month sentenced to
ninety days imprisonment and line of
$500 for illegally cutting pine in Hubbard
county, will, from the present indications,
serve out the uneXpired portion OF his
sentence in the Ramsey county jail, in
which he has been immured since it was
discovered that he was spending his time
comfortably at the City hotel, Brajnerd,
instead Of in the Crow Wing jail.
A number of his friends have framed
and forwarded to Washington petition
for his pardon, and in due course of time
this will be acted upon, and the decision
of the executive will be sent to the local
United States district attorneys office.
This WILL however, take time, and even
in the event of it's being favorably con-
sidered, will not mean much reduction in
the time to be served.
Yesterday Wolfe applied to the district
attorneys Office for a warrant Tor the ar
rest of a man who, he claimed, was really
the party who cut the pine, on the ground
that he was about to flee TO the state
of Washington. J. M. DiclIey, assistant
United States district attorney, unhesi-
tatingly refused to comply with the re-
quest, on the ground that one man had
already been convicted and sentenced for
the offense Wolfe was advised to direct
his energies to proving his innocence and
thus securing his liberty instead Oh WORK
ing to secure the arrest of any other
person for the offense of which he had
been found guilty. Wolfe was tried April
10 and convicted. June Is a motion for
a new trial was heard and refused, and
on that date sentence was imposed. In
addition to the time, a fine of $500 was
imposed, because the pine cut was valued
at $500, and the statute provides for a
monetary penalty of three times the value
of pine illegally cut.
The sheriff of Crow Wing county was
recently fined $100 in the district federal
court for contempt of court in allowing
his prisoner to live sumptuousy at a
hotel when he should have been anguish
ing behind the bars.
