D.DWYER TURNEDDOWN
10TH WARD GERRYmANDER DEAD
The Council Divides Along Strict
Party, Lines for the First
Time In Years.

BY a strict party vote, Alderman James
Dwyer Of the tenth ward was turned down
hard in the council last night on his
proposition for redistricting of that
ward according to democratic ideas. Dwyer
recently succeeded in getting through an
ordinance that put every republican Of
prominence in the ward in one precinct.
The republicans then walked up and at the
last meeting Of the council Alderman Sib-
ley Of the tenth got unanimous consent
to introduce an amending ordinance
knocking out the DWyer scheme completes
ly. Last night the republican members Of
the council did the rest. The republicans
voted solidly to sustain their republican
colleague and every democrat stood by
Alderman Dwyer. This is said to be
the first time in three years that the
council has divided on strict party lines.
It is also the only time that Alderman
Dwyer has been unable to line up quite
a contingent Of republican votes in favor
Of a proposition In which he was inter-
ested. Many times republican aldermen
have turned down their own party COLI
s The council made the following distri-
button of the $158,000 derived from the
sale OF bonds for permanent improvement
purposes: For paving, $8S,0OO; for sew
ers, 100000; for curb and gutter, $4,000.

LIBERAL LABOR men.
Waive Grievances and Resume
Work on Pillsbury Library.
THERE WILL BE NO ,MoREf.DEhAY
Stonecutters Felt That Certain Work
Should Have Been Done
Here.

Work on the. Pillsbury library building
on the East Side will be resumed, as the
result of two conferences held between
the committee from the East Side I'M
proyement association and the Stone
cutters union. The final meeting was
held last night in the Offices of the Chute
Realty company. Representatives were
present also from the Building and
Trades council .;> ~. - -
1t is we'll known that work on the
library has been suspended for. some time
by the action Of the Minneapolis branch
of the stonecutters'. association The. OBJ
lection made by this organization was
that the marble7work was not offered to
local artisans but was let to parties in
Vermont. Some $4,000 in wages was
accordingly paid, to outside parties. The
trades in general took up: the matter and
declined to carry on the work. So the
matter stood till the present week.
:. To end this unfortunate situation
the East Side Improvement association
formed committee Of it's members and
asked the stonecutters to appoint one.
These COMMITTEES have been able to reach
a happy conclusion. Common ground was
equally desire the completion of the
building. The stonecutters took this gen.
erous view of the situation, placing their
interests as citizens above those as arti-
sans. Under the circumstances and In
view Of the fact that Governor Pillsbury
has been taken away they waive their
right Of resistance and consent that the
job shall be#opened.a They expect that
only union labor will be employed and
they hope that builders in Minneapolis
will hereafter be so we'll disposed, to
home labor that no similar work will be
sent out of the state. They claim that
they are fully competent to execute any
design of Minneapolis architects. y.
y This action has been indorsed by the
Building Trades Council. ., &.
The committee appointed for the i'm
provement association by F. G. Mcmillan,
who advised that the matter be taken UP,
was made up of President Cyrus North
rop, DR.. William Folwell,- George An
drews, George Elwell, w. Y. Chute and
DR.. P. M. Hall. The delegation from the
stonecutters union was J.. Calhoun, NJ
Sullivan and Sam Hastings, and from the
Trades Council was ]. K. Scott, S. A.

"ZEBE"-IN A TANTRUM
Gentry Bros.' Zebra Takes n Little
Extra Exercise. e|


"Old Zebe," the zebra who: has been
seen every day this week in the parades
given by the Gentry dog and pony show,
was the whole show" for a half hour
yesterday afternoon at Nicollet avenue
and thirteenth street. The zebra in
question has been on his good behavior
all week, but yesterday he sort Of lost
his temper. ...
Evidently Zebe had grown tired. of be-
Ing called f'the painted mule,'' and other
endearing terms by the street urchins
along the line of march, as his disposition
during the performances has been far from
angelic. Yesterday afternoon he broke
away from the pony boy who had him in
charge, overturned a buggy or two as
starter; then breaking into dead run,
out Nicollet avenue he went as fast as
he could scamper; then south on Thir-
teenth street to Third avenue, whence
he made a bee-line for Lake street.
Every man around the Gentry show
started in pursuit, but Zebe had too
much of an advantage in the start. Pc
destrians, boys and girls, men and wo-
men, took up the chase, but soon wearied
Of it. .......
Old Zebe continued to elude his pur-
suers for nearly an hour. Finally, seem
ing to get over his tantrum, he turned
around and came trotting back as uncon-
cerned as you please.

''But for the use of electrical computing
and recording machines said Former
Governor w. r. Merriam, director of the
federal census, who returned to St. Paul
yesterday, "the regular census, which has
been nearly completed, wouldn't have
been finished in five or six years with
10000 clerks at work all the time.& The
work Of the machines was equivalent to
recording no less than 600,000,0oO facts. ..
Mr.. Merriam says it was the most COM
plete census report ever published In the
history Of the country, though, the United
States is still far beyond other countries
in the diversity and fullness of its re-
ports, particularly along Industrial lines.
A notable feature of the census was that
for the first timesin the history of the
country the value%pf manufactures was
shown to be greater-about thirteen bill,
lions--than agricultural products. n
The important work of the census hav-
ing been finished the bureau will under
take several special Investigations,
among them being & such subjects as
wealth, debt, taxation, electric railways,
social statistics Of cit ties, including san
itation,, debts and plan of government.

popular with the visitors. It is entitled
1.-TWO Subjects Worth Study" the upper
half of the pages being devoted to pic
ture and biographical sketch Of the
presidents Of the United States from
Washington to Roosevelt, and the lower
half of the pages to q description of the
flour industry and bread making. "The
Biography of Kernel of Wheat traces
the wheat from the seed to the mill. An
other chapter is devoted to Wheat Flour
and Bread" containing much valuable in
formation on bread making. Following Is
a recipe for bread making. The most in
teresting portion Of the publication to
northwestern people is the chapter on the
Fife Of Cadwallader C. Washburn, former
" governor Of Wisconsin, and founder of
the Washburn Crosby milling plant.
There is little about the publication to
suggest advertising as its purpose. The

COL. AMEs, CHICAGO
The Address Of Sup't Of Minneapo-

WENT THERE TUESDAY EVENING
No Word From "Red" Cohen-on the
Trail OF Detective
Brackett.

1t is in Chicago that Colonel Fred Ames,
chief of the Minneapolis police department,
is now taking a much needed rest" after
the worry and, strain incident to the police
prosecutions. It was reported when Colonel
Ames failed to respond to the Indictment re-
turned against him the day following his
acquitta, that he had gone to Wits Bear
or some other resort, where he could be .'far
from the madding crowd and get chance
to build up his nerves.
Instead of seeking some sylvan retreat
away from the distracting influences of city
life. Colonel Ames sought a change Of scene
iii the big city by. the lake At any rate, he
was teaeed for Chicago when ne left here
Tuesday evening: He had a ticket TOR Chi
cago when he boarded the Burlington. train
at the union station, and it is presumed that
he went at least that far.
Just when the chief expects to return is a
matter about which his intimate associates on
the department and his brother, the mayor,
still profess ignorance
Il Joe C"Red') Cohen, also under indictment
for the part he is said to have played in the
roll OF 'tcollector," or official go-between in
levying tribute on abandoned women, is still
missing. A brother insists that Joe will be
back as soon as he learns that he is under
Indictment. This brother says he has tele-
graphed him but has received no response as

New York, Jan. 17.-The market
showed sos points lower, owing to
quite heavy receipts at the ports, esti-
mated at $4,000 bales, against $4,000
last year. Gables were slightly lower
when we opened and closed at points
lower. Neill issued a report estimating
the crop at 11,250,000 bales, which had
not the slightest effect on any of the
markets generally regarded as deserv-
ing of less consideration than the gcv-
eminent estimate of 100000 bales less.
The confidence of bulls, however, il
mistaken by high estimates at this
time, and receipts also appear TO make
no more than temporary impression.
Prices were z points lower after the
first hour, when receipts continued to
gain and pointed for possibly 5000 more
than the early estimate. In sight for
week was 100000 bales, against 224 900
last year. leaving 27S,000 ahead OF last
year to date. The Liverpool statistical
report issued to-day was bullish. 1t
showed stocks of all kinds to have de-
creased during the week $4,000 bales,
and the figures are now 100000 bales,
as against $4,000 last year. American
stocks decreased from $4,000 to 800, 900
bales, against 591, 900 last year, while
the afloat of all kinds fell from 37S, 900
bales to $4,000 and the American re-
ceipts rose from $4,000 bales TO 322, 000
Trade across the water is so much bet
ter of late that the above showing is
on the whole a good one. despite the
increased holdings over last year on
the same date, when middling was SELL
ing in that market at 15-32d, as
against 4 9-16d to-day. Futures a year
ago were selling in that market at 40
TO 55 higher. SO far this season Great
Britain has taken $4,000 bales more
