SETS ASIDE VERDICT
FOUND INrHIS COURT
Suit Over Piano, Entaifins Charges
of Forgery and Perjury, to Be
Retired by Judge Kelley.

Judge Kelley, Of the district court,
sitting in chambers, fled his opinion
late last evening in the case of A. NJ
Alden VS.. w. H. Dyer & Bro, a cor
poration, which grants the plaintiff a
new trial and sets aside the Judgment
awarded the defendant by a jury at
the first trial, held before the same
court.
Interest in the suit is enlivened by
the allegations on the part of the de-
PENDANTS of forgery and perjury COM
mitted by the plaintiff. The allegation
of forgery is based on the erasure of a
certain clause in the deed for a piano
purchased by the plaintiff, which pro-
vided that the title of the instrument
should remain in possession of the de-
PENDANTS until full payment was made
Alden at the last trial claimed that
the clause was erased before the deed
was executed and the defendants in
sist that it was rmoyed after its exc
cution.
The history of the case dates back to
1896 when Alden purchased a piano
from the Dyers. He subsequently
moved to Oregon and soon afterward
the piano was taken by the defendants
and sold. Alden brought suit for the
recovery of the piano and the jury
found against him. A motion for
new trial was made while the court
was sitting in chambers and the opin-
ion filed last night grants the plaintiff
a new trial.

FINISH IN THE RAIN
CREWS OF WHITE BEAR YACHTS
ARE DRENcHED TO THE
SKIN
MANY PROTESTS FILED
MAY CHANGE RESULTS
Minnesota Wins From Class A Boats
Harriet First in Open CIass-Monedo
and Spendthrift II. Make 1t a Close
h Race With Question-k U With the
Winners.

The yachts in the weekly regatta of
the White Bear Yacht club finished in
a heavy rain yesterday afternoon, and
all crews were drenched to the skin.
The sky was overcast with dark
clouds for most of the afternoon, and
broke as the boats were entering on
the last legs of the course.
+. Seventeen boats were entered in the
four classes, and the racing was fairly
good, considering the light wind and
other conditions not entirely conducive
to finest yacht racing.
+ Minnesota, Harriet, Question and XII
u were the winners of the day, but
protests have been filed against Har-
riet and Question, which may change
the results after being acted upon by
the regatta committee.
!, In class A, Seeress led for a short
distance, when she was overtaken by
Minnesota, who kept the lead for the
balance of the course, winning by two
minutes and thirty two seconds. Seer
eSS was next, four minutes and TWEEN
ty-one seconds ahead of Highlander.
Only three boats were entered.
WeirdIing Over Line First.
Weirdling was over the line first in
the open class, and kept the lead for a
mile and half, where the steamer in
terfered with her and Harriet took
command, hOlQlnS the lead to the nm
ish. On the last leg Aloha and &C.
neva were pressing her hard, with
Weirdling gaining slightly, but Shop
ard crossed the line minute and eigh-
teen seconds ahead of Aloha, who
crept in just ahead of Geneva A1oha's
skipper protested the race on account
of Harriet fouling the Mahtomedi
buoy the second time round.
Question won the class B race after
a close struggle with Monedo and
Spendthrift II, the boats finishing as
named. Avis, Nausett and Mooswa
came next Monedo protested the
Question, citing two instances of foul
ing.
XII U trimmed up the class c boats
by nearly two minutes, Nip being sec
ond and Blanca third, while Saracen
trailed the field.
The course sailed was to Mahtomedi
and return, and repeat, for all but class
Z, which sailed six miles, going only
to center on the second trip up the
lake. The wind was light at all times,
averaging about five miles an hour
The races We're for pennants in each
class, excepting the open class which
was for the Gotzian cup, and which
will go to Aloha in case the protest is
! allowed, as it probably will be, as the
Harriets crew admitted the foul as
alleged.

GERMANY DISCRIMINATING
AGAINST CANADIAN WHEAT
Due to Canada's Preferential Treat
nent of British Goods.

BERLIN, Aug. 3o.-The decision of
the customs authorities as announced
by the Boersenhalle of Hamburg yes
terday to require certificates of origin
in the case of American grain is direct
ed against Canadian wheat, on which
Germany wishes to collect retaliatory
duty of 15 per cent because of Canada's
preferential treatment of British goods.
Unless certificates of origin are insist
ed upon, the customs officers would be
unable to discriminate against Cana
dian wheat. The decision is expected
to prevent American wharehousemen
from mixing Canadian with United
States wheat destined for export and
grading northern spring wheat, against
which practice the German consul gen.
eral in New York had already pro.
tested.

Freight Records.

Local traffic officials are not disturb
ed by the report that the federal grand
jury would investigate the alleged dis
examinations in rates east and south of
the Twin Cities. They declare that
they have been good and that the
Investigation will not affect them.
1t is thought that the hearing is d.
rected at the Wisconsin Central When
the local lines were enjoined some
not served with an injunction and the
road has been making rapid gains in
its tonnage business ever since.
Officials Are Subpoenaed.
Officials of the road have, it is I'M
derstood, been subpoenaed and in
structed to bring the freight records
for the period between May Is and
June 10 last with them, in connection
with the freight business east Of Man
towoc, Wis.,, during that time.
Officials of the 500 line have also
been summoned, but it is not thought
that this road is implicated in the mat
ter at all and that they will simply give
testimony regarding the affairs of the
wisconsin Central as far as they know.
Neither is the Minneapolis & St.
Louis included in the investigation as
far as can be learned, although the
road was not included in the batch Of
injupctions. Many of it's feeders, how
ever, were enjoineG- and this has had a
desired effect Of keeping the ST. Louis
within the pale.

Imprisonment, if they are convicted.

investigation until after all other mat
tiers before it have been disposed of.

Nothing of moment developed in the

no further announcements, although
something further was looked for from

Gaynou and Greene Taken to MOnt-

 MONTREAL, May 20.-Colonel Gay nor and Captain Greene have won the first skirmish in the fight against ex- tradition to the United States, and again the two men are in the old city of Quebec, where they believe proceed ings to force them to return to the United States to answer the charge of defrauding the United States govern ment can be successfully fought.
 Last night at 10 o'clock a special train on the Canadian Pacific arrived from Quebec with High Constable Gale and assistants on board armed with 8 writ of habeas corpus. They got into a cab and drove to the Montreal jail. to which institution Gaynor c.aa-A Greene had been committed by Judge Lafontaine during the afternoon. The stay of the high constable in the jail was of very short duration. Evf- dently Governor VaIlee and his guests awaited their coming, for in short time Gale reappeared, accompanied by Governor Vallee and Messrs. Gaynor and Greene A quick drive was made to the Place Viger station, and an hour after the arrival of the special train it departed with the much sought fugi- tives from the American courts on board.
 Half an hour later the regular train for Quebec departed, having on board Donald MacMaster and Chief Carpen- ter. They went to answer the writ or habeas corpus served on Carpenter. Incidentally MT. MacMaster will use all his efforts to see that Governor Val l lee returns his prisoners to the Mont real jail The question as to whether he shall do so or not depends entirely upon the legality of the arrest. The case will come up in Quebec today.
