Fifteen Families Forced to Abandon
Houses by Overlooking Of
Bassett's Creek.
Sick Women Are Rescued by Neigh
bors Property Loss Will
Be Slight.

Fifteen families were driven from their
homes Saturday night and yesterday by
the oyerfiowing of Bassett's creek. The
Hooded district extends from Second ave-
nue. to the Great Northern tracks, and
from Dupont to Irving avenue N.
The water began recedfng to-day, and
at p. M was a, foot below the high wa
ter mark of yesterday. The property
damage IS slight, and unless further rains
complicate the situation all danger Is
over. Among the persons forced by the
flood to leave their homes were Mrs SUI
san Iyvonere, 210 Humboldt avenue N,
and her four children. Mrs. Hyvonere,
who was i'll, was carried from her house
by, neighbors.
9 Mrs. Holman, who resides in the tene-
ment row at Humboldt and First avenue
N, with her two-days- old child, was also
removed by friends. In this row the
water is three feet deep on the first floor,
and families who live on this floor were
forced to leave. The families which oc-
cupy the second and high floors were not
disturbed. The water has flooded the first
stories OF many other houses, but the
residents have taken refuge in the upper
stories.
The Thomas & osgood soap factory has
been temporarily shut down. The water
is sevaral inches deep on the first floor.
Eighteen inches of water covered the
tracks on the Osseo branch of the Great
Northern yesterday, and altho the water
has receded about foot, the line is still
flooded. and parts Of the grade have been
washed out. Unless more rains come,
however. trains will probably run over
this branch tonight for the first time
since the flood began. The Bryn Mawr
car line also has been partially aban-
doned. The cars run only to Lyndale
avenue.
Some amusing incidents are related. A
rowboat was making regular trips on Sec-
ond avenue N to-day, and on Laurel ave-
nue. boys were ferrying passengers across
the lake at a charge of 8 cents each, US
ing sections of sidewalk for RATS.
While the property loss in inconsider-
able some suffering has been caused, as
the families in the flooded district are
very poor. Damage suits against the city
may follow, as the flood of 1902 showed
that the tunnel at Western and Dupont
avenues was not large enough to carry
off the waters of Bassetts creek.

WINTER COMING EARLY
Forty Degrees Above This Morning
and Colder Weather Predicted
for Tonight. .

The cold weather in which Minneapolis
shivered early this morning, when the
mercury was 40 degrees above zero, will
be still more arctic before another sun
rise. 1t is not unlikely that the mercury
will fall to the freezing point. There
will be a heavy frost at least.
This premature November is waited
from North Dakota where ice was re-
ported at many points at Ia M to-day
Devils Lake and Langdon had tempera-
ture of 20 degrees; Bismarck % degrees;
Lisbon 20; and Pembina 80 degrees.
Consolation for the cold is found in the
diminished rainfall. Since Saturday even
Ing the precipitation has been less than
one inch. The rain that has given a
Boston sting to the low temperature is
scattered into mist this afternoon, and
will vanish entirely says the weather

FIGHT OVER WHYTE
Maj. Setback Says His Election Will
Not Be Recognized,

J. - : - ! - g. :. :
r. M. Whytes electionSto the position
of first lieutenant of F company, M. N.
c., has stirred up the local military to
no inconsiderable degree. Major Seebach
opposed the reelection of Lieutenant
Whye, and now states that the election
will not be recognized by the higher Off
Gals. He states that Whyte was guilty
Of a breach Of discipline at camp last sum-
mer which cannot be overlooked.
A large majority Of the company sup
ported Whyte for reelection, and they
think it strange that their choice is not
confirmed. The version Of the trouble
at Lake City, as given by members of
the company who were present, is that
some Of the privates were amusing them
selves one night in the company street by
binding a fellow soldier and threatening him
with a ducking in the river. Lieutenant
Whyte came along, but passed by without
stopping the sport. This led to his being
reported, after which his resignation was
asked for and handed in.

THIEVES AT The aU''.
They Break Into Lockers Of Stu
dents in the Library
Building.
Extent of Losses Cannot Be Learned
Until Students Return
Tomorrow.

More than a score of lockers in the IL
brary building at the university were
broken into some time between Saturday
night and this morning and valuable arti-
cIes stolen uJst what was taken could
not be ascertained this morning, as many
of the students will not return until to-
morrow.
There are several hundred lockers, all
fastened with combination locks Many
students who live in ST. Paul are accus-
toned to leave most Of their books as
well as many personal articles in the
lockers
There is no evidence upon which to hold
any one, altho two persons not students
are suspected. A thoro investigation will
be made. g
The gymnasium lockers in the armory
have been made the subject Of repeated
raids and the conditions are now such
that no articles of value can be left in
them with safety a

neighborhood and on the widely scattered
quarters Of the earth to which many for
mer parishioners and former Riverside
Sunday school children have departed
This is the testimony Of citizens, Of city
officials and of members Of Westminster
church
Another interruption has marked an
epoch in Mr.. Pabody's life. He had been
graduated in 1860 at Miami university, OK
ford, Ohio, and had entered Princeton
seminary intending to become an or
dained minister. After a year there, in
1851, he came to Minneapolis to spend
the summer, partly on account Of i'll
health. He enlisted in the Third Minne-
sofa regiment of volunteers. In 1891
thirty Eight years later, he was examined
and ordained under the auspices Of Min
neapolis presbytery.
Following his discharge from the army,
after serving a year, Mr.. Pabody removed
| to his former home at Vernon, Ind, where
| he lived several years. Having in the
| meantime married he came back to Min
neapolis in 1875 and went into the drug
| business in the firm of Peabody & Whit
taker at Washington and Hennepin ave-
| nues. In 1886 the charms of a rural life
induced Mr.. Pabody to retire to
"Owanka,'' but Aug. 1, 1890, the chapel
| work was taken up.
At that time Riversideps chape building
was on the upper flats. Since then the
present large brick structure was put and
/ this has been increased in capacity. Then
the membership was small. Now about
1876 are members Of the church and as
many more have died. In 1890 the Sun
day school had an average attendance of
about 200, while the present enrolment
! is 1,70O.
| Mr.. Pabody is probably the second old
est Presbyterian pastor in point of con-
| tinuous service in Minnesota, his record
being exceeded by that of Mr.. Marshall
at st. Cloud. The last year was the most
1 prosperous in the history Of the chapel
! showing the largest increase in member

DRIVEN FROM HOMES III MAY MISS EUSIIS
Minneapolis Man May Not Get De-
sirable New York Place as
Announced.
Report Says His Name Has Been
Dropped Mr.. Eustis Explains
Situation.

Washington. Sept. 14-William Henry
Eustis Of Minneapolis has requested that
no further consideration be given his
name in connection with the office of
member Of the board of general appraisers
at the port Of New York, that it be
dropped and the request has been granted
The reasons for his withdrawal are not
stated but the president and the treasury
department officials are now deyoting
their attention to the qualifications of the
other men who have been mentioned for
the place.
No formal tender Of the office was made
to Mr.. Eustis altho he was considered
very favorably for the appointment, and
in connection with that consideration, was
asked to file some Endorsements, which
he did. 1t Is probable that there will be
no appointment Of general appraiser
for some time. The republican vacancy
on the board has existed for some time,
and there is no disposition to hurry in Sc
lecting men, becuse of the peculiar quail
hcations necessary to fill the place ac-
ceptably.
III. G. Stevens
When Mr.. Eustis read the above dis
patch, he evinced some interest, but no
surprise, altho 1t was news to him.
While it may be true" he said, 'tthat
my name has been dropped in connection
with tn appointment, the reasons therefor
are not properly stated. When it was
reported that the position had been ten
dered to me, the friends of E. G. Hay and
particularly Tim Brynes became some
what alarmed fearing that my appoint
ment might endanger the chances Of Mr..
Hay for whom federal position had
been solicited by Brynes and others
Endorsements for Mr.. Hay were hur-
riedly secured and forwarded to President
Roosevelt at Oyster Bay. Desiring neither
to embarrass Secretary Shaw nor to stand
in the way Of Mr.. Hay, took the position
that If in the later Judgment Of the presi-
dent the secretary of the treasury, it
would seem better for political expedi-
ency or for any other reason that my name
be not considered TO rthis appointment
would leave him perfectly free to act
II have not declined the appointment in
any other way than I have just stated T

DEYORE GAINS A. VICTORY
Part Of Cases Involving Devore Dia.
mond Company Are Dismissed
on Demurrers.

Judge Page Morris this morning dis.
missed one lottery charge against s. w.
Devore and continued the other over the
term.
Saturday afternoon Judge Morris took
UP the indictments charging the officers
of the Devore Diamond company, success
sors to the Tont1ne Savings association,
with using the United States mails for
the promotion Of a lottery. The jury was
secured on Saturday and this morning
the government swore its first witness.
s. w. Devore was being tried separately,
his counsel having asked for separate
trials. Counsel objected to the reception
Of any evidence on the ground that the
indictment did not state an offense.
After an extended argument, Judge Nor
ris sustained the objection and ordered
the defendant discharged. The cases
against the other two officers, N. A..
Sprong and E. D. ziesel, were then called
and each withdrew his plea Of not guilty
and demurred- to the indictment. Judge
Morris sustained the demurrers and or
dered them discharged.
The officers also withdrew their pleas
Of not guilty to the second lottery indict-
ments, entered demurrers and asked for
an immediate hearing, but the govern
ment, over the defendants objection,
forced continuance to next term.

INDEPENDENTWHEAT
It Is Offered for Sale on Floor Of
Chamber Of Com
merce.
Does This Mean a Back Down on Re
cent Rigid Amendment
to Rules?

Eight car loads Of wheat consigned to
grain firms having membership in the
Independent Grain and Stock Exchange,
We're offered for sale this morning on the
cash tables of the Minneapolis Chamber
of Commerce. 1t was rumored on the
floor that there was more such wheat,
but one car of, No. 3 wheat one of re-
jected and six Of no grade were all that
could be identified for certainty. These
eight cars We're all offered by one firm,
an old reliable Minneapolis Chamber of
Commerce house. This is the first time
anything of the sort has occurred.
Two differences were drawn from this
one to the effect that the Independent
exchange was trying a test case Of its
relationship with the big board, the other
that the cash market OF the Independent
exchange would not absorb the wheat, and
the consignees We're obliged to resort to
this means to market it. The affair was
the cause of much comment among the
few who learned Of it, but 1t was not
generally known on the floor for time.
A Rule Broken.
Only a few months ago the Minneapolis
chamber adopted amendments to the rules,
which provided that any Minneapolis
Chamber of Commerce member doing
business with any firm not officially rec
ognized by the chamber as regular
should be subject to heavy fine and pos
day Chamber Of Commerce firms are evil
IDENTIFY in the closest touch with such
irregular" firms. The drastic rules
adopted as the climax Of the long fight
between the two bodies, would appear to
be a dead letter. Why is this so? is the
question
Legal Phase Interesting.
Rumor has it that the chamber, guided
In all moves by eminent counsel, has been
advised that a refusal to accept wheat
sent on the floor, or to allow it to be sold
on account Of the new amendment, might
possibly be construed into act Of dis
elimination against trade, and to one dis
posed to foment trouble, might afford ba-
sis for technical suit which would be,
att the least, a great expense and annoy
ance to the chamber.
Sentiment Divided.
Among the leaders who knew of the
presence of the Independent exchange
wheat, sentim was divided between
those who regretted the breaking dowr
of the barriers between the two bodies
and those who expressed themselves as
pleased with the evidence that the cash
market of the Minneapolis Chamber OF
Commerce is the only dependable cash
wheat market.
