FELL OFF A LOUNGE
WITNESS TOOK THIS TO BE EVIL
DENCE OF MIR. KEEGAN'S
DRUNKENNESS
COULDN'T CHANGE HER MIND
Grand Jury About Through With
WhitehOrne's Case, but if IN
dictment Is Returned 1t
Will BE Secret.

1t is said that no tragedy is complete
without an element of comedy and this
element was furnished yesterday in the
Keegan divorce suit by a black-eyed lit
tie woman who stated most emphatically
to the clerk that her name was Miss Ell
len Field but referred to her dead hus-
band number of times while on the
stand.
Attorney Mcdonald, for I<eegan, cross
examined the witness, and received some
very spirited replies to his questions.
Witness stated that she had seen Keegan
sleep on a lounge in his kitchen and that
he had fallen off, therefore she conclud-
ed that he was drunk. She had also
seen him stagger on different occasions,
a lounge or staggered in the street he
unable to make her think or testify 9TH
erWiSe.
She stated that she knew that Mrs.
keegap was a good housekeeper and
stayed at home nights, for she herself
never went out. Mcdonald, failing to
get the connection in this matter, dis
missed the witness and heaved a sigh
of relief when she left the stand. His
rigorous cross-eXamination had not net
ted him very great returns.
In summing up the case for Mrs. kee-
gan, Attorney Hall, of Minneapolis, ar
gued that a bill of absolute divorce
should be given his client on the grounds
Of desertion, drunkenness and cruelty
The case will be resumed this morning,
when Attorney Mcdonald will address
the court on behalf of keegan.

NEW CODE is SEVERE
sOMD SECTIONS OF BUILDING REG

PROHIBITIVE
CASE OF CoLoNNADE HOTEL
Owners Want to Add Extra Story to
building, but Are Informed
That Improvement Cam
not BE Made.

Inc almost prohibitiVe features of some
sections of the new building code are al
ready manifesting themselves in a man
ner not at all to the liking of many con-
tractors, and especially prospective
builders DESTROYS of making improve
ments at the least possible expenditure.
one of the most exacting features OF
the new code is that relative to fire
proof construction, and probably the first
to feel it's effects in this respect are the
owners of the Colonnade hotel and apart
ment house, at Tenth and ST. Peter
streets. Preparatory to making improve
ments in the shape of the addition of an
extra story to the building, the owners
last week made inquiries of the building
department If a permit would be issued
but as the result of an opinion given yes
terday by Assistant Corporation Attor-
ney Griggs, it will have to be refused
The opinion is to the effect that an ex-
ira story cannot be added to any build
ing where the same is six stories and
over, unless the building is of fireproof
construction, and as the Colonnade hotel
does not come under this head the i'm
prov ement cannot be made.
Fireproof construction does not mean
brick and steel alone, but includes the
covering of the latter with some fireproof
material, preferably hollow brick. Even
the floors must be of similar material
This prohibitive feature relates to jails,
hotels, theaters, apartment houses and
office buildings.
The Colonnade hotel owners had con-
templated an expenditure of nearly $780,
600, but this will have to be more than
doubled if the improvement is to be made
IL comply with the code, the entire in
terror of the building would have to be
rebuilt.

luxurious surroundings. What must
summer in city store be? At the best
it is trying to nerves and temper. The
long, languid days, the oppressive at

is added womanly weakness, the con-
dlt1on is well-nigh unbearable. And yet

ORANGES FROM PORTO RICO.
Come Much Earlier I'm Season Than
CaIffOruia Product

NEW YORK, Oct. 24.-Much interest is
being taken in local freight circles at the
moment in the receipt of oranges from
Porto Rico, and in the prospects of an
increase in the trade in the Porto Rican
pruduct in competition with the fruit
grown in California and Florida, says the
Journal of Commerce.
During the past fortnight between 1000
and 5000 packages of oranges have ar
rived in this market from Porto Rico
These represent the first shipment of
the season, and are, moreover the first
shipments reaching this country since the
establishment of free trade relations be-
tween the United States and Porto Rico.
They have neasly Jall been sold at auction
at prices below the normal figures for
California fruits early in the season The
question of the price the Porto Rican
fruit may command has not yet had a
demonstration The receipts thus far are
largely inferior in quality, especially SO
far as the packing of the fruit is con-
cerned However, in few weeks, the
fruit will be arriving in excellent condi-
ton.
The Porto Rican product is essentially
an early product, maturing much sooner
than either the Florida or California ar
ticle. In fact, the last of the old sea-
sons California product is about here,
and arriving to the extent of car or
two a day.

That Is the Charge Against Minne-

Among the cases argued and submitted
before the supreme court yesterday was
that of Daniel Scatena, of Minneapolis,
who stands indicted before the Hennepin
county district court under charge Of
perjury. The state was represented by
Assistant County Attorney Al ]. Smith,
Of Hennepin, and Scatena by Harry
Mead.
On the part of the state it is set forth
that Scatena, in applying for license to
operate saloon on Washington avenue,
in Minneapolis, made affidavit that he
would operate the place himself and not
as the agent Of any other person, and
that there was no variety theater or con-
cert garden to be run in connection with
the saloon. Further it is charged, that
in reality Scatena was acting as the
agent of Charles Sodini in securing the
license, and that after the license had
been granted a variety theater was run
in connection with the saloon in direct
violation of Scatenas affidavit.
Scatena filed a demurrer to the indict-
ment in the Hennepin county district
court, and it was overruled by Judge
