MINNEAPOLIS MIDDLE.
City Government Temporarily With.

Minneapolis, July 20.-News from
Mayor Ames is not encouraging to
his friends. He has shown but little
improvement since he arrived at West
Baden, and today wired Secretary
Brown that he was too feeble to think
of returning to Minneapolis. His
friends regard his stay there as in
definite and many believe he will new
er be able to resume his Official duties.
Assuming that Mayor Anes will not
be back for two weeks at least, there
arises the interesting question Of who
will sign the city warrants approved
at next Fridays meeting Of the coun-
Gil. President D. p. Jones Of the
council, acting mayor, is a IWO-day's
journey distant and is not disposed to
come back for some weeks except in
the case ct an actual emergency.
While the prevailing legal opinion
seems to be that Alderman Powers, as
vice president of the council, is leg
ally entitled to assume all the pow
ers of acting mayor, there is yet
doubt on that score, and Controller
Rogers. to be on the safe side, de-
clares that no warrants will be paid
except upon the signature of Mayor
Ames or D. P. Jones. 4s.As presiding
