down, but Minnesota will score two or
three.

A S5OO,000 DRUG co.
Great Cooperative Company Estab-
ished in New Jersey to Manufac-
ture Household Remedies. 4
It Will Not COB Except to Stock
holders--yoegeli Brothers
Are Members Here. y


The United Drug company of Boston
just incorporated in New Jersey with a
capital of 100000, will interest Mime
apolis' drug store patrons. Thomas
Voegeli is one Of the incorporators, and
Minneapolis is one of the forty cities Of
the United States in which the products
of this company will be sold by actual
stockholders. -Four hundred other lead
ing cities will have agents only.
The company Is a smanufacturing con-
Germ run on the cooperative PLAN The
$500 900 is cash working capital paid in
by the stockholders and will be used in
manufacturing, advertising and placing on
trade name by which it will be sought to
give them a distinction never obtained by
the products of any other company.
The corporation was formed to reduce
the cost Of manufacturing many articles
now handled by the retail drug trade.
BY giving the products from the labora-
tory to the retailers direct without inter-
mediate profit, the company will natural
ly benefit the public.
The company will profit by the expert
ence of it's stockholders, as each firm
will send in prescriptions which time has
proved to be unfailing. Under the super
vision of a head chemist these remedies
will be compounded from the purest OF
ingredients and after being copyrighted
will be distributed. At first 1t Is probable
that only half dozen remedies will be
put out, but the means of giving them
publicity will be used extensively.
Thomas Voegeli Of the Voegen Brothers
Drug company, believes that the estab-
lishment of this corporation will mark a
new era in the drug business. The COM
pany will be entirely different from any
organization now in the business. The
company will not job except to stockhold-
ers The United Drug company has moth
ing to do with the Voegen company's drug
business established in this city. The
voegelis are simply stockholders In the
United Drug company.

WITHIN THE APPROPRIATION
Cost of the Primary and the General
Elections,

Summing up the combined cost of the
primary and general elections for this
year, City Controller Rogers finds that
the outlay comes we'll within the appro-
priation, contrary to the predictions of the
enemies Of the primary law. The saving
was made possible only by rigid economy
AS result of this economy by the city
controller and the city clerk Mr. Lydiard,
nearly $500 will be saved from the appro-
priation of $1,000.
The cost Of the primary election was
$S,385.63. The total cost of the general
election so far as bills have been paid is
$40, 451.92. The combined total is s28, S37 =
55 leaving balance Of $2,162.45. There
is yet to be disbursed about $1,000 for out
standing bills and for repairing polling
places, which will leave $662.45 cash on
hand.
A comparison of this years election
expenses with those of 1900 shows how
great a saving has been accomplished.
The totals in 1900 were: Primary election
expenses, $9,304.02; general election, $20
S37o1; total expenses, $50, 141.O3.

AN OFFICIAL EXODUS
All Departments but One Being Moved to
New Quarters.


New Quarters.
Everything was turned topsy-turvy at
the old city hall to-day. With the ex-
ception of the waterworks, every depart
ment in the old building was on the move
for palatial quarters in the new city hall.
The Waterworks department Will 90 all
of its moving Saturday, by which time
the other departments expect to be re-
established.
The mayors office and police head
quarters were ready for business In the
new building this morning, and the at
tendants were busy all day showing ad-
miring visitors the handsome appoint
ments of the finest municipal Offices In
the United States. Not content with In
speeding the interior Of the quarters spec1-
fed the visitors, many of whom"had never
been in the new city hall before, insisted
on being shown throughout the massive
structure.
The two rooms which excited the most
admiration were the great council cham
Der, which is finished in all the splendor
of ancient architecture, and the beau
office.
"Hain't come in here fourteen miles to
miss anythin' goin' to see it ALL said
the spokesman of a party Of Hennepfn
county farmers in coonskins, who had
made a special trip to town to see how
the city nall compared Will Lie Guilty
side of the building.
Wonder was freely expressed that the
mayors waiting-room should have been
fitted up on such a lavish scale. 1t Is al
most as spacious as the council chamber
and can accomm odate large crowd. The
wisdom of having such a large ante
chamber will no doubt become apparent
when one stops to think Of the large del
egations which are frequently kept walt
ing on the mayor when other pressing
business demands his immediate atten-
ton. At election time, when the mayor
| Is in great demand the need Is urgently
felt of a large room in which every one
can be given chance to sit down, in
stead of being forced to undergo the wear
isome ordeal of standing. The mayors
waiting room occupies the corner space
of the first floor-not the basement-over-
looking Fourth street and Third avenue.
The new offices are located as follows,
upon entering the building from the Third
avenue entrance:
Basement-ro left, poor department., fire de
partment bicycle room, janitor and supply
| bicycle inspector, pawnbroker inspector, police
| telephone. chief of police meter testing depart

RETURNS ARE FOUND


Judge MCGEE had several election judges
from the eighth district of the sixth ward
and the sixth district Of the seventh ward
before him this morning. They had been
summoned to reveal what had become of
the returns for the vote on the state
ticket. One of the sixth ward judges said
that the returns on the state ticket had
been placed in the Spoiled ballots en-
velope, and had probably been sent to the
city clerk. A hunt by the latter official
proved the surmise to be correct.
The Judges from the seventh ward could
only guess that the missing returns were
In the ballot box. The latter vas accord
ingly brought in, and the seals broken by
the judges in the presence of Judge Nc
Gee. The returns were found intact.
The returns are all in and the canvass
ing board is through with it's work except
as to proving the footings. When the
board began its work there were fifteen
district returns unaccounted for and sew
eral days of work were needed to secure
the official figures. ...

AN UGLY CHARGE MADE
Amelia Armit Says She Was Urged to
Commit a Crime


Amelia A. Armit, plaintiff in the breach
OF promise suit against J. c. Shepherd,
while on the stand this morning, created
something of a sensa ton by testifying
that the defendant had urged her to
make away with her child. She testi-
fled at some length with reference to her
relations with Shepherd and the circum-
stances of the engagement
A motion was made this morning for
bench warrant for James c. Shepherd
Z. G. Laybourn, attorney for Miss Armit
stated that subpoena had been secured
on the defendant at a previous term of
court but he had not put in an appear
ance. 1t was believed that he was either
In Minneapolis or st. Paul, but was in
hiding Shepherd was, however, a neces-
sary and material witness for the plain
tiff and his presence in court was impera-
tive.
Judge Harrison ruled that a subpoena
for former term of court was hardly
binding in the present term and disal-
lowed the application. The defendants
attorney, in order to prevent further pro-
ceedings, promised to have Mr.. Shepherd
IN court Tomorrow morning.
