Railroad Commission Issues a
Letter Explaining Car Dis
tributfon Statute.

Efforts Will be made by the state
railroad and Warehouse commission to
provide against a car famine in Mime
sofa during the fall movement of crops.
Circulars were = issued yesterday by
Secretary A. c.. Clausen instructing
shippers and railroads in the law re-
garding the distribution of cars and
asking that cars be loaded promptly
and not held for storage purposes.
The question of distribution of cars
has been a frequent source of contro-
versy between the shippers and the
railroad companies, and it is to pre-
vent undue complaints and charges of
discrimination that the circular ex-
planning the law governing the distri-
button of cars is issued. The law
quoted by the commission follows:
Whenever any railroad company do
ing business in this state shall be I'M
able, from any reasonable cause, to
furnish cars at any railway station or
side track, in accordance with the de-
mand made by all persons demanding
cars at such stations or side tracks for
the shipment of grain or other freight,
such cars as are furnished shall be d.
V1ded as equally as may be among the
applicants until each shipper shall have
received at Ieasttone car, when the ball
ance shall be. divided ratably in pro-
portion to the amount of daily receipts
- oheeAAA VI OCiiC1s llCISIll, u cdcH SHIP
per- OF to the amount of grain offered
at such statiorkon side tracks
The commission has no power under
the law to conmeI a railroad company
to furnish caI upon the complaint
simply that ashIpper cannot get the
cars he has ordered or which he re-
quires to ship mis- aproduct. 1t is only
when the shipper is not given his just
proportion Of cars that the commits
sion has the power to act.
1t is advisedz.b by the commission that
each shipper. fnds3ut what proportion
of the ears received at his station he is
entitled to utilize and accordingly
make his demands upon the station
agent. 80
It is the opinfonsdf the commissioners
that If the law fssobserved by the ship

The active paIlbearers selected are

of the deceased, and Andrew J. Mylor,
Richard Walsh, Jeremiah Strapp and
M. E. Egan. Mr.. Strap is assistant
chief of the fire department and was

Flandrau when he first lived on Pleas
ant avenue. Mr. Mylor. a captain in
the fire department, was also a neigh
Dor of the judge in the early days. Mr..
Walsh has long been in the service of
the family.
Tributes From His Friends.
The passing of Judge Flandrau has
ELECTED many expressions of apprecia-
ton of his public service and personal
qualities.
Judge William Lochren, of Minneap-
oils, who knew Judge Flaudrau for
half century, says:
i first met him in 1856, and I al
ways held him in the highest esteem.
1t was he who opened the first term of
the district court of Hennepin county,
at the old court house, in the fall of
1857. His ability was manifest from
the start. He proved, in the general
estimation of the bar, one Of the ablest
men who ever presided in the court.
He made himself equally influential as
associate justice of the supreme court
of the state during the early Sos He
did much towards forming the judicial
department, and by his acumen, &C
curate knowledge and fine sense of
equity, he was enabled to correct
abuses incident to legal practice in a
frontier state. Judge Flandrau will be
remembered by all who knew him per
sonally as striking example of the
thorough culture and the high charac-
ter that characterized so many resi-
dents of Minnesota in the earliest
days"
A True Man in Every Respect.
Judge Atwater, of Minneapolis. at
one time Judge Flaudrau's colleague on
the supreme bench, gives this testi-
monial:
II am greatly surprised, for I had
no idea that Judge Flandrau's condi-
ton was so serious. 1t was only three
months ago that he was In here to see
me, and while he was ACCOMPANIED by
an attendant for safety's sake, he was
feeling perfectly well and I did not look
to see his death come SO soon.
He was one of the finest men 1 was
ever acquainted with. 1 first knew
him in 1853, and he was one of the best
and ablest lawyers we had in that
early day. He was in every respect q
most true and worthy man and his
word could always be relied upon to
the last extremity.
After we left the bench we prac-
ticed together at Carson City, New,
and later here in Minneapolis, and he
was one of the most popular and sue
cessful lawyers before and after leav-
ing the bench that the state ever knew.
He was always as popular as he was
successful as lawyer and maintained
this character up to the time of his
death.
Il think he was the Oldest practi-
toner in the state at the time of his
death, although am a little older than
ne was, and he will probably be more

and his heavy boot struck his pursuer
between the eyes. The claret flowed,
but the excited bus man followed his
prey into the coach and threw Olson to
the ground. He was giving him rough
treatment when bystanders interfered.
Olson was looked after until a police
man arrived, and he placed the man in
a buggy and took him to Jail. At the
jail he refused to talk except in mono
syllables. The authorities were at
loss to know what to do with the case
but Deputy Sheriff Moritz, acting I'M
der instructions of the county attorney
today filed information of insanity
against the man.

LONG LIFE CLOSES
Continued From First Page.

of business, he was obliged to resign
before he had held the position a year.
1t was during this year that he was
appointed as Indian agent for the
SIOUX of the Mississippi, in which po-
sitlUn he distinguished himself by his
work OIL reScuing refugees from the
treacherous Indians, who were at that
time such menace to the settlers in
remote sections.
He became a member of the conven-
ton which framed the constitution of
the state. This convention was pre-
sided over by Gov. Sibley. During this
time he also acted as associate justice
of the supreme court of Minnesota,
position he held until 1864.
Saves New UIm People From Massacre.
Judge Flandrau did most notable
work for the state in 1862, when the
Indians started out to eXterminate the
whites. During these stirring times
his aggressive leadership undoubtedly
saved hundreds of lives. He organized
a company of volunteers and marched
to the scene of the trouble. At New
Ulm he was chosen commander-in-
chief Of the volunteer forces, and after
a fierce battle which lasted forty hours
without cessation he saved the people
of New Ulm from massacre and the
village from destruction.
Soon after the Indian troubles had
quieted down he left Minnesota, going
to Carson City, New, where he prac-
ticed law for a time. He soon return
ed to Minnesota, however and locating
at Minneapolis, entered into a law
partnership with Judge Isaac Atwater.
He was president of the first Board Of
Trade in Minneapolis and was city at
torney in 1867
He returned to st. Paul in 1870, and
q
the firm name of Bigelow, Flandrau &
Clark, and was later identified with the
firm of Flandrau, SquireS & Nc
Cutcheon. OF late years he has prac-
ticed alone.
Prominent in Democratic Party.
Politically Judge F'landrau was a
Democrat. He was an unsuccessful
candidate for governor in 1867, and two
years later was chosen chairman of
the state central committee and elected
delegate to the national convention.
While he was a Stanch Democrat, he
opposed Bryan on the stump in 1896.
He was a member of the commission
that framed the present city charter
of st. Paul.
Judge Flandrau was married in 1859
to Miss Isabella r. Dinsmore. By this
union there were two daughters, Mrs
T. r. Selmes and Mrs. F. w. McCutch-
con. His second wife was Mrs Re-
becca B. Biddle, to whom he was we'd
ded in 1871. The children by this
union are Charles M. FIandrau and
William Blair Nee. Flandrau, both of
ST. Paul.
In his long career Judge Flandrau
found time for but one real vacation,
which came in 1886, when, with the
late Judge Wilkins, he passed eight
months in trip around the world.
