BoBLET,ER BILL pAssHs
Despite HalvOrsOD's Charge That the
Proceeding Is Irregular. aa

The senate passed tho Bobleter relief
bill this morning Sc to 20. Senator Hal
vorson, however lnsin,ated broadly that
Colonel Bobleter had been guilty Of trans
actions while in office that brought him
within the pale Of the law. The senator
from Lac Gui Parle Is republican, but
he could see no Justice in the Bobleter
measure; and he said so. He explained
that the former state treasurer had been
paid cne-half percent for all moneys de-
posted in the banks that had afterwards
suspended, and in which the state had lost
considerable sums. The transaction he
stignlatized as neither legitimate, proper,
regular nor honorable. On the other
hand, he said, a prosecuting attorney
would have been justified in demanding
Colonel Bobleter's conviction from jury,
had his action ever been made the sub
ject OF a criminal proceeding. Only one
member OF the Ramsey delegation voted
against the bill, Senator McNamee, a
democrat This probably means that an
other bill, releasing Colonel Bobleter's s
bondsnlcn from liability, will be intro
duced later on, as practically all Of them
are St. Paul men. The vote was as fol-

Daly's Grain Bill Revived.

Several new bills were introduced. One,
presented by Senator DAILY, though de-
feated at the last session, provides for the
taxation of grain in elevators. and en-
powers elevator men to retain enough
grain to pay the expenses of taxation in
cases where the owner resides outside of
the state is unknown. Senator Hal
.vorson introduced a bill requiring bank
officials to furnish a statement of depos-
its to the superintendent Of banks and
also to the county auditor This is a
feature of the rejected code which aroused
considerable opposition in the house.
Senator Everett introduced a bill
amending the law as to make nom
support misdemean0r instead of felo-
ny. This is to enable a wife to testify
against her husband, the Ramsey county
courts having ruled that she cannot so
testify when the offense alleged Is felony.
Senator Sheehan introduced bill
amending Section 1, Chapter Sc, OF the
laws of 1894. This law permits a railroad
corporation to mortgage its property and
to issue bonds, redeemable in stock or not
as the company may elect, for the purpose
OF raising money to increase its equip
ment. 1t also permits the issuance Of
deeds Of trust. AS amended, the law will
include telephone and telegraph COM
pan1es.
-a- A Move for the Hoers.
Senator Stockwell introduced a joint
resolution calling upon the president to
prevent the expectation Of mules from

resolution follows:
Whereas, The treaty of Washington con-
Guided between Great Britain and the United
States May 8. 1871, remains in full force, and
whereas, Under the terms Of this treaty
either party thereof, is not to permit or suffer
either bell1gerent to make use of its ports
OR waters a base OF naval operations
for +ba IL
renewal or augmentation of military supplies
or arms or the recruitment Of men, and
Whereas. This treaty is being constantly
violated by the United States in permitting
horses and mdles to be shipped from it's
ports by the agents of the English army to
be used in the war of England against the
south African republic, thus aiding and abet-
ting England in her unholy war of conquest
Of the Boer republic
Therefore be 1t resolved by the senate, the
house concurring That we call upon the
chief executive Of this nation to enforce the
treaty or washington in letter and in spirit.
Ihe resolution went over under notice
OF debate given by Senator sheehan.
Senator StockWell also introduced a
resolution fixing the salary of Walter
