when the meeting was called to order
last night, save Dickey who had a prior

But only Mr.. Carter and Colonel Jones

during the proceedings, and Colonel
Jones staid but short time.
The legislators were much in earnest,
and were soon hard at work. 1t was
agreed to change the order of business
by the committee so that the
bill under consideration should be read,
section by section, and members who
had amendments to propose should
state them, very briefly, without dis

these amendments proposed
would be taken up in their order, and
passed upon by the whole body.
The bill was read last night as far
as chapter Is, which chapter was COM

changes proposed to nearly every sec

the majority of cases. Where the fights

FIRE DESTROYS WAREHOUSE.
BardweII- Robin, Company Sustains
Loss of $4,000,

The Bardwell- Robinson company
Warehouse No. and shed at Twenty
fifth avenue north and Second street,
were destroyed by fire last night. The
total damage will approximate $4,000,
of which 81 900 is on the buildings. The
entire loss is fully covered by nsur-
ance.
The warehouse is located a block
north of the sash and door factory, and
last night contained a considerable
quantity of finished product. There
was about 100000 feet of siding, two
carloads of maple flooring, seven car
loads of glass and a large assortment
of storm sash. The shed contained ten
car loads of various kinds of product
of the company: 5s - fFt&
The fire was caused by sparks from
a passing engine, according to the. night
Waterman, who discovered the flames.
He Immediately turned in the alarm,
and this was followed by 2-1 and 3-11.
The report of a fire in the lumber dis
trict gained rapid circulation. and soon
all north bound cars were crowded.
The reason for calling for additional
apparatus was the spread Of the fire
from the shed, in which it caught, to
the warehouse. For half an hour the
department had an ugly proposition on
it's hands, as the burning structures
were surrounded by lumber piles. Hose
had to be run several hundred feet
in order to reach the fire. Half an
hour after teh streams were turned on
the burning structures all danger of
spread of the flames had been over
come.

CARLSON cAsHED THE CHECK.
Aitkin Man Is Worked by Confidence
Men,


A gang of flash check bunco artists
is at work in Minneapolis. The game
has been worked here SO often that in
the majority of cases the persons APP
preached are too wary to be caught,
but it Is a curious trait Of character in
the indignant citizen, that SO long as
he escapes being victimized himself he
fails to report the attempt made upon
him to the police department.
Yesterday a couple of bunco Steerers
pulled off SIS game in the corridor of
Temple court. The victim Of the affair
was John Carlson, of Aitkin, who had
been in town but few hours and who
expected to leave again last night, but.
put off his departure until this morn
ing.
There were two men in this little
game, as there have been in most of
the attempts of similar sort recently
made. One of the operators made a
friend of Carlson on the old original
confidence lines, while the other was
happened upon in the Temple court
building. Carlson was easy and it did
not require much persuasion to- in
duce. him to cash the strangers check
for SIS, especially as the bank was
closed and the man informed him
that he would be able to get his money
the first thing this morning.
The municipal detectives seem to
have had pretty poor luck in rounding
up these crooks and Carlson concluded
he would throw a little good money
into the hands of Detective Baxter, Of
Minneapolis, toward rounding in the
smooth individual who walked off with
his SIS. Baxter declares that the work
is being done by well known crooks
who jump in and out of town as they
find convenient. He expects to make
an arrest within twenty-four hours.

GRAIN DEALERS MEET.
Members From Two States Hold In
teresting Session.

ScFCSIiHS 0CSoiOus
The annual meeting of the Southern
Minnesota and South Dakota Grain
Dealers association was held yester-
day at Holcomb's hall, 43 Fourth
street, and some fifty members from
different sections of the two states
were in attendance.

citation, delivered his annual address
at the afternoon session, and P. p.

sidered the subject Of Terminal

ages" in a paper which was COM
mended by the members of the associa-
ton.
Another address of special interest
to the members was given by George
A. Stebbins, of Chicago, secretary of
the National Grain Dealers associa-
ton. He spoke on association work
and brought out a number of valuable
points. G. D. Rogers, secretary of the
Minneapolis Chamber of Commerce,
also addressed the meeting, speaking
on 1.-THE Grain Trade Of the North
vest
The Brownell price cards were dis
cussed during the meeting, and nearly
all the members in attendance express
ed their views on the matter. 1t was
the general opinion that while the
cards were of value to wheat handlers
they were not desirable for barley
men. Regret was expressed that there
could not be more steadiness and uni
formity in regard to the price among
barley buyers.
Secretary Treasurer Charles A. May
made report which showed that the
organization had made a substantial
growth since the last annual meeting.
The membership had reached 1853 deal
ers, who control 780 elevators. There
are only 220 elevators In the territory
covered by the association that are not
under control of members. The finan-
cial report showed $1.400 in the treas
ury.

SEARCH Dog But
FIND NO MONEY
Surgeons Then Console Them
selves by Operating on Help
less Animal for Appendicitis.

Two Minneapolis surgeons yesterday
went after the intestinal apparatus or
a dog that was supposed to have sWal-
lowed a purse and $50 in gold. They
found neither the purse nor the gold,
but discovered that the dog had ap-
pendicitis, or something akin to it, be-
came interested in his case, and now
claim all sorts of credit for having
saved the dogs life.
The bulldog upon which the opera
ton was performed is owned by Thom-
as J. Hamlin. The dog has since pup
pyhood exhibited curious fondness
for indigestible articles, such as old
shoes, punches of horSehair from an
cient cushions, sections of cloth filched
from the clothing of venturesome per-
sons. Mr. Hamlin AYERS that the dog
never suffered from these gastronomic
gymnastics until he went against the
gold cure, but that as soon as he swal-
lowed the purse he began exhibiting
symptoms of discomfort.
Mr.. Hamlin still believes that the
dog swallowed the purse and that he
has guilty knowledge of it's present To-
cation, but considering that the un-
fortunate animal is slowly recovering
from the effects of anaesthetics and
the operation, the suspicion is being
held as a basis of future action.
The doctors who were summoned to
investigate the dog began with an X
ray apparatus, which disclosed some
Opaque substance in the dogs internal
economy which apparently had no bus
mess there. Mr.. Hamlin insisted that
the Opaque object was the purse, and
thereupon the four doctors went at
Mr.. Hamlin's bulldog for the price of
admission, which is understood to have
been so per cent of the profits.
After the dog had been properly
chloroformed he was explored via the
knife route and found to contain moth
ing more valuable than some undi-
gested bits of leather. There is a grave
doubt in the mind of Mr. Hamlin as to
whether these fragments do not con-
stitute the remaining portion of the
purse, in which event he is at loss
to account for the nom discovery of
the money.
AS soon as the doctors found out
that the dog was suffering from an in
testinal obstruction, they proceeded to
tartan grounds, totally oblivious of the
purse and the missing $50 They re-
moved a mass of undigested matter
from the dogs interior, sewed him up
with great neatness. and sent his own
er assurance that he would doubtless
live to a green old age. They will send
Mr.. Hamlin the bill later.
The bulldog operated on is one Of the
best known animals in Minneapolis
He is a performing dog, the fact being
demonstrated not alone by his success
full disposition of the purse and gold,
but by innumerable other stunts that
have gained him a-wide and deserved
fame.

LIND TALKS GOOD ROADS.
Argues Before City Council for High

Congressman John Lind yesterday
addressed members of the city council
and delivered a strong, talk advocat-
ing the construction of a thoroughly,
first-class highway between Minneap-
oils and Fort Smelling.
Congressman Lind pointed out that
the Fort was as near Minneapolis as
st. Paul; that great share of the
business there, which was shortly to be
so greatly increased. naturally belonged
to Minneapolis. Mr.. Lind concluded
that the business had gone to st. Paul
up to date because ST. Paul had fur
nished better facilities for trading than
Minneapolis had done, but the con-
gresham believed that the soldiers at
the fort would trade in Minneapolis by
preference if given decent roads to
travel over and a chance to get into
the Flour City without walking or driv-
ing over one of the worst roads in the
state
