READY TO TAKE BONDS
Reports of Hitch in Bond Sale With
out Foundation,

The Minnesota Loan & Trus, company,
with Denison, Prior & Company of Boston,
purchasers of $249,00 of city bonds held
by the sinking fund commission, was in
correctly reported in the morning papers
yesterday as being unwilling to take the
full amount of the bonds purchased.
AS a matter of fact, the company is
quite ready and anxious to take up the
bonds as rapidly as the city can legally
issue them in accordance with the opin-
ion ofNMessrs. Storey, Thorndyke, Palmer
& Thayer, of Boston, the attorneys who
passed on the legality of the bonds. Their
opinion was that the sinking fund com
mission could not deliver the bonds pur-
chased until the bonds called in for pay
ment on April list were actually present.
ed for payment, and then only to such an
amount as. after the cash in the sinking
fund had been first exhausted, would be
necessary from time to time to pay for
the outstanding bonds as presented.
There have been s188,000 of the bonds
thus far presented for payment, and there
was cash in the sinking fund for payment
of the same, the amount of $1O2, 900. The
trust company has taken up $55, 900 of the
bonds, and E. A. Merrill, PRESENT of the
trust company. states that it st ands ready
to take UP all the others as fast as the
call bonds are presented and paid in ac-
cordance with the opinion of the attor-
neys. Messrs. Storey, Thorndyke, Palmer

SIX YEARS. LESSONS
To Be Adopted by the Denver Sun
day School Convention.
TEMPERANCE FOLK ARE UNEASY
They Fear Other Special Lesson.
May interfere With Tenn
perance Sundays.

The program committee. of which DR..
George r. Merrill, of this city. is a mem
Der, has issued tentative program for
the tenth annual International Sunday
school convention to be held in Denver
June 24-July 1.
The great interest will center around
the appointment of the new lesson COM
mittee to prepare Sunday school lessons
for six years following 1904. and The ques-=
tion of modification and Improvement of
the International system. Some anxiety
has been expressed by prominent tenn
psrance workers as to the attitude of the
convention toward the quarterly temper
ance lesson. DR.. Merrill says it is safe
to predict that the convention will be
overwhelmingly in favor of continuing
temperance instruction, but 1t is to be
hoped that more freedom in choice of the
particular dates for the temp erance lesson
will be given the committee. Heretofore
it., has been taught invariably on the
twelfth Sunday of each quarter. 1t is
conceded that four year is proper, but
they should be arranged so as to inter-
fere the least with the cont inuity of the
lesson plan.
T.. Although four temperance lessons have
been in vogue almost since the beginning
of the International system, adherents Of
the plan feared somewhat that the adj
Vocates OF purity Sunday, patriotic
Sunday, and other movements would claim
days until eventually all the time would
be taken UP and constantly the whole sys-
TEN might be dropped. including the
quarterly temperance instruction.
| Something that is likely to produce the
most difference of opinion among the del
egates and the fullest discussion is the
matter of modifying the lesson scheme by
introducing an advanced course. An in
troductory course for young children is on
trial and great difference of opinion
exists among Sunday school workers as to
the advisability of the plan on the ground
that Introductory and advanced courses
break down the uniformity of the course.
while others assert that. coming from the
| same committee, there is uniformity of
source.
Dr.. Merrill reports that considerable
enthusiasm exists in all parts of the coun-
try as to the selection Of Jerusalem for
the fourth worlds convention in 1904
The matter is to be settled in Denver.
1t is probable that the worlds conven-
tion will be preceded by "round the
world commission" which will visit the
principal countries taking year in the
| interests of Sunday school work. The
commission will report conditions to the
convention.

.SWEEPERs' SHUT Out
The New Ordinance Effective in
Protecting Grain Cars.
LESS STEALING NOW THAN EVER
There Have Been some Terrible Ex-
amples Made and inspectors
Are ViGilant.

Car sweeping as an Industry in Mime
apolis has received a death blow. The
long fight between the state grain inspec-
tion department and the grain thieves is
over. Some of the 'sweepers" have paid
heavy fines and one or two of them are
in jail summary lesson has been ad-
ministered to the fraternity and great
evil eradicated. ...5...,
P. P. Quist, state weighmaster, said to-
day that at no time for a year has the
department been so free. from the annoy
ances occasioned by thievery from grain
cars as at present. Last year, and espec-
tally in the late fall, the evil had reached
such proportions that radical measures
were necessary. There is statute pro-
viding penalty. and making it serious
offense for any UNAUTHORIZED person to go
into a freight yard and tamper with or
break the seal on a car Of grain. Sew
eral offenders caught red handed in the
cars were brought up: before the courts,
but the department was unable to secure
convictions. The, statute covered the
offense of, tampering with car seal, but
did not go far enough. il
In the fall, when the harvest work is
over and the cold weather begins, every
freight train coming into Minneapolis car
ries summer tourists y The North Da-
kota hobo strikes for q warmer cline the
first morning that he wakes up and finds
frost on his whskers. Many of these
tramps break the seals on the grain cars
and crawl in, and in consequence as many
as forty cars have been known to arrive
in one day with seals broken. This was
the car sweeper's" opportunity. Into
car of this kind he went with impunity.
If he got out few bushels Of wheat and
got away with it he made money. If the
inspector caught him prowling about the
car it might be very evident that he was
there to steal wheat, but to have him
prosecuted under the statute it was
necessary to prove that''he tempered with
the seals. This wasFla hard thing to
prove. ae.tr
The state railway and warehouse COM
| mission was appealed to, but while it
could issue stringent orders it could not
alter the statute. Finally the inspection
| department went before the city council
and secured an ordinance broad enough
so that if man is caught in car OF
| going into car or proving around q
car. when he has no, business there, ii
may be assumed that he is there for nc
good purpose. Last. week two providers
were fined in the municipal court. Still
! the department has not relaxed its vigi-
| lance and the car sweeper of to-day has
to contend not alone with the ordinance
but also with the man with the club.
