A decision of special interest to- Mime
apolis is that of B. J. Briggs, city sales
man for a Minneapolis shoe findings firm.

First-A peddler, within the generally ac
cepted meaning OF the term, is a small retail
dealer who carries his merchandise with him,
travelling from place to place, and from house
to house, exposing his goods for sale, and SELL
ing them
Second-The power conferred upon munich
pal corporations by their charters to enact
ordinances on specified subjects is to be con-
strued strictly; and the exercise of the power
must be confined within the general principles
CT the law applicable to such subjects. -
Third-Under the power conferred by its
charter to define and restrain peddlers, the
city of st. Paul is limited and restricted in
defining such term to the generally accepted
meaning and scope of the law relating there
to- Ordinance No. Psi of said city, in so far
as II exceeds such limits. is void.
FOurth-Defendant was an agent of whole
sale dealers in shoemakers' supplies, and as
such made periodical trips through the city
of st. Paul selling and delivering such goods
to Dealers and not to consumers. Held, ne
was not peddler within the meaning OF the

Landlord, Agent and Tenant.

For the, third time the court decides a
controversy between A. E. Paget and the
Electrical Engineering over the payment
of rent. The company vacated the
premises, and an alleged agent of the
landlord accepted surrender of the
premises. The owner claimed that Law
ton, the agent, was not authorized, and
insisted on rent for the remainder of the
term of the lease. The court holds in
the syllabus:
Almerc r. Paget as receiver Of Ella B. Law

The Pacific Coast and Norway Packing
company was organized about two years
ago by Minneapolis men to engage in sal

Alaska. Three months operations in
catching and sailing herring during the
first year Of it's organization Melted, the
stockholders dividend of per cent. Last
year the company had it's cannery at
Wrangle arrows in readiness at the open
ing of the canning season in June. At the
annual meeting the report to the stock
holders showed that the company had put
up over 10000 cases of canned salmon and
1,7O0 barrels of salt herring, valued at
about $50, 900 in all. The net profit for
the seasons operations was 16 cents per
share. The average profits per annum for
all established canneries and salteries in
Alaska, according to the government re-
ports, exceeds so per cent.
The capacity of the cannery and the
saltery will be doubled, and the board of
directors has decided to place 10000 shares
of thetreasury stock upon the market.

A VIGOROUS FIGHT
Counsel for Megaarden Raising
Objections at Every Point.
ACCURACY OF RECORDS ATTACKED
The State Finally AbandOns Them
for Proof That Certain Bills
Were Paid.

There are no indications that there will
be anything exciting in the Megaarden
trial unless the most technical of legal
sparring between two hostile attorneys,
ably seconded, may be considered excit-
ing. At the opening of the trial this
| morning, Judge Steele pursued the tao
ties begun yesterday and every time
County Attorney Boardmanl framed a
question, his opponent was ready with an
objection. -.. -
The attorneys among the spectators
smiled significantly as the hot skirmish
was being carried on, but the jurors, not
being conversant with legal tactics, ap-
peared bored. =
The number of spectators was very light
considering the Importance Of the case.
Attorneys were numerous, as from a legal
standpoint the case is quite interesting
Prominent among the spectators we're
A. B. Choate and James A. ePterson, who
as attorneys for Former Sheriff Alonzo
Phillips, take lively interest in the
case. *..
County Attorney Boardman was some
what nettled over the great number of
objections raised by the counsel for
Sheriff Megaarden, and protested against
their conduct in refusing to receive off,
cial records: -.
That's what they are here for" re-
marked the court, with smile.
Accuracy of Records. -
O. S. Langum and A. P. Erickson, deputy
county auditors at the time the bill re-
ferred to in the Indictment was presented
and paid, alternated in the witness stand
to prove the accuracy of the minutes Of
the board Of county commissioners. Mr..
Langum made the pencil notes and Mr..
Erickson made copy in the bound book,
and these circumstances made it difficult
to prove the accuracy Of the record of the
minutes. ..'-..
A sample dialogue during the morning
was as follows: -.... X =.

Steele. 1--WE object on the ground that it
is incompetent, irrelevant and irnmater-

more as calling for conclusion of the
witness"
"Objection sustained" said the court.
| County Attorney Boardman again re-
sented the discretionary tactics of the
| defense and declared that two hours of
valuable time had been wasted Yesterday
in trying to get the sheriffs bill before
the jury. III, III.
! You are trying to show that this bill
you speak of was approved by the county
commissioners on April 16, 1900. Now, do

! When an attempt was made to Introduce
the minutes Of the court, Judge Steele was
not satisfied as to their official character.

that this book is not an accurate record

Minutes Not Signed.

: After examining the book, the point
was made that the minutes, not being
signed by either the chairman or clerk OF
the board, were not the official records
The attempt to prove the allowance OF
the sheriff's bill by the records was
finally abandoned and Mr. Langum was
called for*the third time ITO testify as to
the allowance Of the bill, the witness
by the pencil notes he kept of, the pro-
ceedings of the county commissioners on
April 16, 1900. ::
County Commissioner J. B. Ryberg was
then called to testify as to the method OF
auditing and allowing bills. He testified
to- having stamped Sheriff Megaarden's
bill as chairman of the committee on
claims in 1900 -.... 81.
What means have you of knowing that
you placed tyour stamp on that blll?''
asked Judge Pond g.. .-
Because 1 was the only one who had
possession Of the stamp and 1 stamped
every bill myself after it was approved
by. the committee said the witness.

approve of a bill by the use of a stamp

when the committee on claims had
acted on the bills, they were stamped In
the presence of all the committee.
"At the time they were approved?'
"Yes, sir. '~,. ..,.rs .... = -,
Then he testified that Megaarden's bill
for March, 1900 had been allowed.
Mr.. Ryberg was permitted, without OBJ
lection, to testify that Philip T. Megaar-
den was sheriff of Hennepin county from
January, 1899, until last November.

BAD COLLISION NEAR Dull TIL
YESTERDAY.
NINE LIVES WERE LOST
wHALEBACKs COME IN DEADLY
CONTACT.

The Steamer Wilson Almost Cut in
Two by the HadIey and SnnI1 in
One Minute After COlIisiOn-Mem-
bers of Night Shift Drowned in
Their Bunks-The BadIey Left in a
Helpless and Sinking Condition.
But Reached Shore With Aid OF
Tugs, Where She Promptly Settled.
Duluth, Mimi, June THE whale
back steamer Thomas Wilson, Capt.
Cameron, was cut almost in two by
the steamer George G. Hadley, Capt.
Fitzgerald, half a mile south of the
Duluth Canal to-day and nine men
went down. There were mostly men
of the night crew who had not time
to get out of their hunks before the
vessel sank. The names of the men
lost Aaron Trips, cook Frank,
second cook, Superior; James McDou-
gall, oiler, West Superior; James M.
Frazier oiler, Manitouan Island;
Joseph McGraw. wheelman, Sault Ste
Marie, Mich; Campbell, lookout,
Greenleaf, Mich; John Carey, deck
hand, ST. GATHERINGS, Ont; Thomas
Jones, deck hand; William Roebuck,
fireman, Port Hampton.
The Wilson was coming toward the
canal and the Hadley going out both
loaded. Just before reaching the ca
nal and when about opposite the Will
son, the Hadley was given orders by a
tug to go to Superior. Immediately
she sheered off for the Superior entry
and crashed into the Wilson. The Will
son went down so quickly that it did
not seem possible to save a life. One
man on the Wilson threw life preserv-
ers to those who had jumped into the
water. The crew of the Hadley also
threw out preservers. AS the Wilson
went down the members of the crew
rushed to the stern, jumping overheard
as fast as they could free themselves
from their clothing. The vessel did not
f1oat minute after their collision.
During this interval she seemed sup
ported entirely by the Hadly's prov.
which was sticking in through her
plates. Two men who jumped last
were seen struggling near the hull
just before the plunge and could not
be seen afterward
The Hadley's steering apparatus
seemed to be paralyzed after the coll
lision. She swung round in a circle
several times and seemed utterly help
less. In few moments it was appar-
ent that the Hadley was going down
and the crew on it could be seen strip
ping themselves and lowering boats
Some of them got into boats, but when
the Hadley sank to within a foot of her
deck she seemed to be safe from sink
ing for a few moments and the men
clambered back on the boat.
The race of the life-saving crew and
tugs for the wreck was thrilling. The
lralN Law .rNH1
had it not been for the tugs. The life
saving crew picked up the men in The
water. The Hadley had hard run for
shore and moment after her bow
went on the bottom her stern began 10
settle and finally went down.
