The prompt arrival of a wagon load OF
blue coats put an end to the struggle and
saved the policeman from probable per

with disorderly conduct and resisting an
officer.
Great excitement prevailed in the park
as a result of the Insurance. For more
t han an hour after the encounter young

ing attitude. and the utmost vigilance was
necessary to prevent another outbreak.
Feeling was so bitter against the police
OF the park that Captain Nolan gave an
order iHstructing his men to travel in
pairs.
1t has been the habit of hundreds Of
young men and boys to congregate in the
park and accost women. The "mashers'
have been warned repeatedly by the po-
lice, but to no purpose. Recently they

Sunday afternoon and evening their con-

Yesterday afternoon Policeman Ander-

but they laughed at him. Ballard became
particularly abusive and was placed under
arrest. Billiards. companions spread the
story that he was being prosecuted by the

Lord Landsdowne Suggested for.
Lord Pauncefote's Place.

Nov, ye-a, sun spe,s.l SERVICE


Washington, May. 26.--The report from
London that Lord Lands,downe may sue
coed the Late Lord Pauncefote as ambas-
sador for Great Britain in Washington,
is not credited at the state department,
but IL has for some time been known that
the British foreign office was contem-
plating sending one Of the most prominent
men in the diplomatic service to succeed
Pauncefote, who wished to- retire.
By Lord Pauncefot e's death .Amba ssa-
dor Won Hollebenfo of Germany becomes the
dean Of She diplomatic corps, and next
to him ranks the French ambassador, M.
Cambon. = The British foreign Office has
for some time realized that 1t would lose
certain advantage by the retirement of
Lord Pauncefote and for that reason the
old ambassador was continued in office
for several years iaiter he reached the
age of retirement and desired to retire. .
The gossip in London about sending
Lord Lansdowne to Washington is &C
cepted as indicating the Importance now
attached to the office of ambassador to
the United States and the anxiety of all
European nations to maintain a position
of most cordial friendship and perfect I'M
derstanding with this government.
Lord Pauncefote was not only the dean
of the diplomatic corps, but he was the
close personal friend of President McKin-
ley, and President Roosevelt, holding their
confidence in marked degree. The man
who succeeds him must. be more than a
mere representative of the king of Eng
land. He must be statesman with a
good understanding Of American politics
as we'll as those of England, and able so
to present American questions to his own
government as to- have it understood how
to maintain the present cordial relations
for Washington no longer takes the Eng
fish view of European politics or politics
in the orient. Germany and France, Rus
STA. and even China, are now represented
by statesmen and Washington has be-
come the clearing house of the world $
politics. 4is ~

NO FRICTION THERE
Governor Van SAINT Praises the State
Board of Co troll
AND BOARD SAYS ALL is SERENE
Rumors of Trouble Are Denied on
+ /. Both sides--Red Wing School
Matter.

Governor Van SAINT declared himself en-
phatically on the question of the state
board of control to-day. 1t is his first
public reference to the subject since his
message to the legislature. It is of espe-
,cial interest on account OF rumors that
have been circulated Of friction between
the governor and the board. The gov
ernor said to T h e j uarnal:
81 am firm believer in the board OF
control. 1t is the proper system for man
aging state Institutions. believe that
when the boards annual report is made
public many who have opposed the board
of control will be convinced that 1t Is a
good thing. think that in time even
the towns in which institutions are located
will be satisfied with the system.
/ II regret very much that the educa-
tional institutions were ever placed under
the care of the board. That should not
have been done. The board has all it
sides that. the educational institutions
can be better managed by separate boards.
In other states having boards of control
they have nothing to do with the educa :
tional institutions. l hope that when the
next legislature meets the law will be
amended in that respect"
Reports of Friction.
AS to reports of friction between the
board and himself over the matter of ap-
pOtntments, the governor added:
II am not in TIE habit of making de-
malls or of paying ,Nny attention to-. such
stories. l did indorse Vernon M. Smith
as a good man for the Red Wing school
If change seemed desirable, but did not
attempt to force my views on the board.
l will refer you to them for information
on that point"
Board Says, ono Friction.'
The board Of control, being asked what
truth there was in the statement that the
governor had interfered in matters per-
tanning to the Red Wing training school,
said
There is no conflict between the gov
ernor and this board upon any matter or
thing. On the contrary, our relations are
most cordial and pleasant in every way.
We have counseled with lin at different
times, as 1t is our duty to do, concern
Ing the general policy Of the board He
has never in any manner interfered with
the details of our work, or attempted to
dictate or insist upon the appointment of
any person to any position under the
board. On the contrary, he has repeated
ly disclaimed any desire or intention to
