JOHNSON ON TRIAL
Superintendent Of the Poor Depart
ment Defends a Charge of
Misrepresentation.
The Case Is One Developed by Last
4 Years Municipal Inyes-
tigation.

I s Z * . -
William II. Johnson, superintendent of
the city poor department, is on trial be-
fore Judge Elliott to-day for misappro-
priation of $3.50 Of the city funds. Judge
John H. Steele is the defendants attorney,
while C. S. Jelley and William Leary, as
sistant county attorneys, appear for the
state.
= The work of securing a jury began
about II O'Clock and at noon seven jurors
had been secured. The defense seems en-
tirely confident and is in no way captious
inz the examination of jury possibilities.
The indictment was found last summer
in the municipal investigation and the
trial has been continued from time to
time. The shortage is claimed by the
defense to be merely a mistake in book
keeping and the defendant says that the
money has always been subject to de-
mand. The case, however, will be in the
nature Of an investigation and may un-
earth some interesting facts.

WONT Be DROPPED.
Harriet Plan Will Be Presented
to the Park Board in
Detail.
AS Yet Nothing Has Been Done
Except in 9 Suggestive
Way.

To the surprise Of the members of the
Minneapolis Retailers association and
others interested in securing a new pa
vilion at Lake Harriet. the park commits
sioners last evening looked ,askance at
the communications from the street "a IL
way company and the Retailers associa-
tion regarding this matter. Commissioner
w. w. Folwell moved that the matter
be, laid on the table, remarking that it
was too one sided to merit consideration.
Commissioner J.. E. @Northrup argued
against the motion with such effect that
the communications regarding the pa
yilion and bathhouse plan at Harriet were
referred to the committee on privileges
and entertainment. Representa- tives OF
Retailers association will be invited to
meet the committee.
President w. L. Harris of the Retail
ers' association said this morning that
he was confident the park commissioners
would look on the matter in different
light when it had received more careful
attention.
In the first place. he explained. both
communications were simply suggestive.
No definite plans were proposed. Mr..
Goodrich, while informally announcing
what the street railway company was will
ing to do, plainly stated that the plan
was only as a suggestion and expressed
a desire for conference. expressing the
conviction that It would be possible tc
agree on plan satisfactory to all.
Personally I am thoroly convinced
that something in the way Of public
amusements should be provided at Lake
Harriet, and want to see both a pavilion
and baths. think that our citizens want
these Improvements and that they are
entitled to them. No one is committed
to the plan suggested in Mr.. Goodrich:
letter and conference may result in thu
adoption of something entirely different

|BAPTISTS ARE PLEASED

Awakening Of the Sense of
Civic Responsibility.

The verdict Of the jury that convicted
former Mayor Ames found an echo this
morning in a resolution adopted by the
Minneapolis Baptist association at Cal
vary Baptist church, Blaisden avenue and
Twenty-sixth street. The association
"hailed with delight and approval the
new awakening of q sense Of civil re-
sponsibility on the part Of Christian cit1-
zens, and their union. without regard to
party lines, in the procuring of municipal
Righteousness in our cities and towns
The meeting also resolved that s'we at
firm our belief in the American voters &C
countability to God for the right use of
his civic prerOgatiVes and opportunity;
that we call on all Christians to unite, in
every possible way, for staying the dire
ravages Of intemperance, and the over
throw of the saloon, the brotfel and gam
| bling den.'' The delegates also urged
'the Introduction into each home Of at
least one UNCONVENTIONAL . paper and a
missionary magazine; and emphasized
the Importance Of larger support of
Baptist schools, publications societies ana
orphanages." A third resolution advised
that classed be organized in the churches
for the study of the Scriptures.
A resolution, which was lost, contem-
! plated the establishment of a permanent
council of Baptist churches
The committee on the next anniversary
OF the Baptlst association proposed that
the place:of meeting be fixed by the mod
orator and the clerk. that Rev. w. M.

Baseball Team Without Manager
Yeager Will Act as Captain

Parties Concerned Refuse to Divulge
the Reasons for the Unex.

4 Walter Wilmot is no longer manager of
the Minneapolis baseball team His con
nection with the team was severed this

The management announces that for the
present George Yeager. the. catcher, will
act as captain. No decision has been made
in regard to the appointment of new
manager. 49, 3
The news Of the split between Wilmot
and the club owners caused great ex-
element among the fans this morning.
and both the exmanager and President
to most of which they returned non COM
initial replies. Wilmot said: If
The owners and myself simply agreed
to disagree. All / have to say is that ]
got together a winning ball club, and that
a combination of circumstances was re-
sponsible for our long losing streak. If
I had been left in control I would have
had that team winning within a few days.
Any other manager cand Q the same thing.
It is going to be a solft job for the man
that is appointed manager now.
did you ever before hear Of such a
thing as manager with any sort of a
record behind him being let out after
only two weeks to make good? I don't
want to criticize Il the owners, but the
public will remember that I have won
two two championships, that I gave this
town thesonly pennant it ever won, and
that I was beaten out by half a game
another year It want to say now that
this team will win from now on, and
! within a short time they will win more
games in succession than they have lost
yet. 1 have managed some good ball
teams, two at least that the Minneapolis
| fans will remember, but this team is the
| best ever had, and when they get started
| You will wonder how they ever lost a
game 1t is pretty hard to be let out now
| when the team is just getting into shape
| to VIM I am MOTTO blame because three
good men, Schmeer Anderson and Slagle
jumped me, nor because half a dozen 9th
ers who came highly recommended
turned out badly
President Johnston was even more un.
communicative. He sa id:
| 'Wilmot is a man whom I esteem per
sonally more than almost any one else
| know. He is one of the best ball players
| in the business and his loss will weaker
the team somewhat for the present al
least. but we shall go right on playing.

occurred under peculiarly distressing cir
cumstances Death was due to acute

A PAN-HELLENIC MOVE
A Getting Together Of Varsity
Greeks Is Suggested.

A novel social feature may be intro
duced into university life next season as
result of an exchange of courtesies at
the annual banquets of two Greek letter
societies at the Nicollet hotel last night
The Phi Gamma Delta and Delta Up
silon Sen held their banquets in different
parts of the hotel and at the close of
the festivities each fraternity sent its
POSTMASTER to the. other with greetings
Rev. Irving johnson of the Gethsemane
church represented Delta Epsilon and Dr.
McClumpha of the university represented
Phi Gamma Delta. DR. McClumpha
spoke Of the benefits OF inter-fraternity
fellowship and said that for some time
he had bee nthinking to propose a pan
fraternity banquet at which all Greek
letter men and alumni of the twin cities
could be present. The college fra
ternal spirit is becoming broader every
day he said, "and such a plan will have
to be adopted in the near future
When Dr.. McClumplla's plan was
preached to members of other fraternities
this morning it was received with favor
and it is quite possible that newt year
will see the plan tried.
