Battle Over Ground On in U. S.
Circuit Court.
ST. LOUIS IS MUCH INTERESTED
Strip Lies between Two Others AL
ready Obtained and Is of
= Great Importance.

Officials Of the Louisiana Purchase ex-
position and owners of land which it is
hoped to- Include within the exposition
grounds were in the court OF United
States Circuit Judge Sanborn in st. Paul
this morning listening to their attor-
neys argue the pros and cons OF an In
junction suit begun by the owners to keep
the exposition people off their grounds.
The piece Of ground contains about thir-
ty acres and lies between two other
stretches for the use of which the ot11-
cials have already made arrangements.
It is therefore of great Importance to the
exposition that this strip be obtained.
Realizing this the officials offered to pay
rental of S.. 500 per year for the land.
of about $250,000 The owners, Mrs.
Laura lesson and her sons, say this es-
innate is far too low and place the figures
at $1,000 ,000,' and presumably want four
times as much rent ~. q -- (.
This was brought out in the arguments
before Judge Sanborn this morning, the
plaintiffs being represented by G. A.
the exposition officials by F. w. Lehman,
special counsel Of the exposition. -
No testimony was taken in the case at
all, the facts except as to the value of
the property being admitted. Almost the
entire day was taken up with the argu-
mepts and no decision was announced up
to late Rour this AFTERNOON. ', -
Among those interested in the case who
came from st. Louis were Governor Fran
els of Missouri, and his private secretary,

sissippi. a national commissioner; F. W.

attorneys were also present. The gov
ernor's party is expected to leave for st.

SHOWS NO QUARTER
Bureau Of Investigation of National
Credit Mems Association. ss
PROSECUTION OF THE sWINDLER
The Twin City Wholesalers Believe
There Will Be Fewer Fraudu-
lent Failures. 49,.

Twin city wholesalers believe that the
National Credit Mems association has
taken an important step toward reducing
the number of fraudulent failures in the
organization of its new bureau for the in
vestigation and prosecution Of such
claims. A fund Of $4,000 has been raised
and deposited in the Fourth National
bank of New York for this purpose. This
fund will be kept near this amount by
assessments on the members of the asso-
citation. This is much the same method
as that employed by the bankers assoct-
alton in running down burglars and forg-
ers. 5.r.
Although the number of fraudulent fail
ures has decreased to some extent
through the rigid examination Of the
debtor provided for in the national bank
ruptcy law, the percentage is still large.
The credit men of the country have ar
rived at the conclusion that they must
provide their own protection against
losses from this source. The bureau OF
prosecution is in no sense a collection
bureau. 1t seeks to make an example of
every fraudulent debtor in order to deter
others, likewise disposed, from trying to
swindle their creditors. The creditor on
turning his case over to the association
agrees to make no compromise with the
debtor leaving the entire matter in the
hands Of the prosecution bureau. @.".E
The prosecution bureau finds many
hearty supporters among twin city whole
salers. IN the past few years there have
been through fraudulent failures some
bold swindles attempted in this section of
the country. Some OF these have been
successfully carried out. Wherever there
has been a prosecution It has been made
by one house which has usually paid all Of
the expenses. The merchant whose fail
ure is fraudulent often makes an offer to
compromise believing that the offer will
be accepted by the creditor as preferable
Under the new system, however, the ex-
pense of prosecution, including detectives,
attorneys and all other items Is borne by
all members interested in the failure and
by the general fund Of the prosecution
bureau. Nearly all Of the wholesalers IN
the principal lines handled in the north
west are members Of the National associ-
alton and will be entitled to the services
of the bureau.

4 CHARGE OF FRAUD,
IAN Excelsior Attorney Is Arrested
by Federal Officers.
( RAILROAD CLAIM INVOLVED
He Is Accused of Trying to Collect
for Fictitious Personal
Injuries.

q. r. Empey, an attorney OF Excelsior,
was arrested Saturday afternoon at the
Minneapolis & st. Louis station by United
States Marshal w. T.. Grimshaw on the
charge of using the United States mails
with intent to defraud. He was taken
Immediately before United States Com
missioner Howard S. Abbott, who placed
the bail at $1,000, set the hearing for
Thursday at 2 U. M, and released the
prisoner on his own recognizance. The
arrest was made at the instance of Post
office Inspectors Lance and Drake of
Minneapolis. H.
w. S. McCaull Of Kansas city, claim
agent of the Quincy, Omaha & Kansas City
railway, brother of J. L. McCaull, presi-
dent of the McCaull- Webster Elevator Of
this city, is more directly responsible for
the arrest of Empey. For long time he
has been on the scent Of a man who was
negotiating with railroads for the settle
ment of fraudulent claims for personal
injuries. He collected pages Of evidence
bearing on the various cases and ar
ranged the plot by which Empey was
trapped Saturday afternoon. ..-s.Lr.
After the facts were put into shape by
Mr.. McCaull they were placed in the hands
of Inspectors Drake and Lance as show
ing violation of the postal laws. ~
The particular offense charged was vio-
lation of the postal laws in the attempt
to make settlement for injuries alleged
to have been received by Fleetwood S.
Spruce, of Excelsior, in wreck on the
Omaha G. St.. Louis road, near Council
Bluffs, Sept. 81, 1901. He offered to settle
for $125 and was to meet a representative
of the road Saturday afternoon and sign
receipts - . H - -
The arrest was made with, some dra
matte circumstances, yet so quietly that
the roomful Of passengers was not aware
of what was going on. Empey was to
have been at the Hotel Nicollet at 2
p, NJ He did not arrive and a telephone
arrangement was made to have the settle
| ment for damages by, the payment OF
s125 to be made at the station. Empey
came rapidly forward to meet the Nc
Caulls, and signed the necessary papers.
then the signal was given to Marshal
| Grimshaw, who took the young man aside
and quietly explained that he was wanted
by the federal government.
+ Mr.. McCaull> is secretary of the
| National Association of Railway Claim

day: = r. ~.
tEmpey, the son of respectable fam

the ministry. He preached for some time
at Hastings and afterwards studied law.

"Empey had no railroad record until
about a year ago when a dog was killed
at st. Louis crossing near Excelsior
Empey had purchased the dog before the
owner knew of the accident, and brought

defeated and started out for higher

STEAD AS A PROPHET
He Indicated Daat Ireland Would
Succeed Archbishop Teehan.
ALSO GAVE HIN THE REs HAT
the Way to Realizing steads
Prediction.

Recent telegraphic advices, forecasting
the assignment Of Archbishop John Ire
land of st. Paul to the now vacant see OF
Chicago, recall a prediction made by Will
liam T. Stead as long ago as 1894, which
will now be fulfilled should Rome place its
official sanction upon the transfer.
In 1894 Mr.. Stead published his highly
sensational book, "If Christ Came to Chi
cago." In it he predicted the accession
of Ireland to the Chicago primacy, and
his ultimate elevation to a cardinalate.
The prediction was made in the last chap
ter of the book, in which the eminent Eng
lishman presented an idealized portrait
of Chicago in the twentieth century, with
Cardinal John Ireland at the head of a
unified Chicago church. The city, it was
said, would then have a population of be-
tween 100000 and 100000 and would be
the metropolis of the country, with an
outlet to the sea through which ocean
liners could pass with ease Utopian con-
ditions are pictured as reality in this
renascent~ municipality, without labor
problems, with crime a rarity and with
the social evil conquered for all time to
come. And the part credited to Archbishop
Ireland in working these changes was by
no means small one. I..: s@a +
Before he published his book Stead is
known to have met the archbishop, and
1t may be that the picture there pre-
sented is as much the ideal Of the church
man as of the sociologist. However, Ire
lands name was probably inserted after
wards, as compliment. ..-
- A Vivid Prophecy. .
In referring to church conditions in this
windy city OF the imagination, Mr.. Stead
wrote: .--.,
When Archbishop Ireland, afterwards car
dual. succeeded Archbishop Feehan, a won
derful change came over the church of Chi
cago The cardinal speedily achieved for
himself on the shores Of Lake Michigan the
samo position which Cardinal Manning used
| to enjoy on the banks Of the Thames. His
primacy was acknowledged with enthusiasm
by men Of all creeds and of none He had
| most trouble, at first, with his own people,
| but after time they also began to see that
| the ideal Of the Catholic church could only
| be realized by widening the conception of
! Catholicism. The germ of the Federation of
the Ministers Of Religion, which had begun
| in the year of the worlds fair, was developed
! under his influence, and before long the
church of Chicago was organized With the
| cardinal archbishop at it's head as chairman.
| Continuing, Mr., Stead explains that the
united church embraced all creeds within
| it's scope, a Unitarian being vice president
T Of the organization. The city is pictured
as being divided up into districts and the
church work as being accomplished with
| out friction, 49,,
! Archbishop Feehan of Chicago died Sat-
| urday, and already papal politicians are
| discussing Archbishop Ireland as his prob
| able successor. Within the past few
| years rumor has made him cardinal time
and again; and it looks very much as
though Mr.. Stead's remarkable prediction
was to be fulfilled, at least in part.
