Herrero Very III.

Rome, Aug. 4.-There was great anxiety
around the vatican turnout the night, both
in and out Of the conclave. owing to the
fear that Cardinal Herrera Y'Espinosa
might die at any moment.
Feeling the end approaching, the cardi-
nal confided his last wishes to Mgr. Boni-
face Marin, vicar general OF his archdio-
cese, Valencia, Spain.
At daybreak Cardinal Herrero's condi-
ton took turn for the better. Never
theless, the doctors still consider his life
to be in danger.
Cardinal Gibbons Is IndIsposed.
Cardinal Gibbons has been added to the
sick list which now numbers five of the
sixty two members of the conclave. He is
said to be suffering from touch of ma,
laria.

.'The candidate of the Italian party will

they could not be suppressed.
Finally it was quiet enough for Car

new pontiff had taken the name of Plus

window and the attendants quickly drew
up the banner.
Rush for st. Peters.
Those below instantly made a rush to
go into St. Peters and mad scramble

A terrific effort was made to get out

basilica was almost deserted. The at

all the thousands waiting in the piazza
saw it and realized what was intended a
great shout fapproval arose.

His Brother Was Infected and Was

Six cases of smallpox have followed in

prudence of a woman, who insisted on

Olson is an engineer running westward
from Minneapolis on one of the transcon-
tinental roads,. He contracted smallpox
at a boarding house at the other end Of
his run and came home with it. Olson
says he did not think he had smallpox,
as he was not sick, but, the health de-
partment officials receive his story with
a stony stare.
The next victim was Olson's little child.
The next was John Olson locomotive

HUGH JENNINGS JOB
Republicans Want to Hold Him as
Sidewalk Insneetor. -.

The problem Of what to. do FOR Hugh
Jennings is disturbing the republican lead
ers not a little, He is at present side
walk inspector under the direction of City
Attorney Frank Eealy. Unfortunately for
Mr.. Jennings, the appointment of side
walk inspector lisa perquisite of themayor.
Inspector Jennings is a personal friend
of Mayor elect J. c. Haynes, but never
theless Mr.. Haynes as a strict partizan,
cannot shut his eyes to the fact that Jen-
nings was largely responsible for the de-
feat of J. L. Kichli and the election of
DR.. w. F. Nye as alderman from the
third ward.
It would be political suicide for Mr..
Haynes to retain the arch enemy as
sidewalk inspector, "a fact which 81 r.
Haynes is said fully to recognize.
The republican leaders feels that Mr..
Jennings has earned d good reward and
are trying to have him retained in his
present place. It is believed that the APP
I.pointment can be taken from the mayor
and given to the city attorney.
In fact there is no question but that
Mr.. Healy could appoint an assistant and
detail him on the work Mr.. Jennings Is
doing, but he has no means with which
| to pay such an assistant.
+ There is considerable figuring going or
-by the republican leaders and they are
hopeful that matters can be adjusted 81
/ that Mr.. Jennings will not suffer for hi
loyalty to the party. sssss

BIG CONTRACT LET
C. F. Haglin Will Build the $780,
600 Addition to the Glass
Block. @8;.s
AL the Work for the Structure
Will Be Done in, Mime
apolis.

The first big contract of the year In
building circles Is awarded by William
Donaldson &. Company to c. #. Haglin
I for the erection Of the addition to the
Glass Block on the site Of the present
annex. The Hagln contract is 100000.
This with the subsidiary contracts will
bring the total cost Of the building to
$500, 900.
The best feature in connection with the
letting of these contracts, from a Mime
apolis point of view, is the fact that Law
renee S. Donaldson, president Of the COM
pany, has made it a point to have all the
work done in the city. even If at an In
creased expense to the company. AS a
result of Mr.. Donaldson's determination
to patronize home industries, every con-
tract in. connection with the building of
this addition was LETT III Minneapolis ex-
cept that for the elevators, which neces-
sarily went elsewhere The new Mime
Iapolis Steel and Machinery company took

chinery company secured the contract for
additional electrical apparatus. Now the
building contract has been let, to a Min
neapolis builder and the work will be done
! by Minneapolis WOrknen. For seven
months Minneapolis wage earners in large
numbers will be employed in making this
extensive addition to the Glass Block.

annex will be torn away, to be built new

| 1855 feet deep. This will include the pres

One of the engineering problems in the
erection Of the new building will be the
| underpinning of the wall of the adjoining
store building on the south. The bottom
of the wall is eleven feet above the new
level established for the Donaldson build
| ing. This wall must be shored and stayed
/ until the nasons have made a foundation
| for the new wall and extended the ole
wall adjoining.
! Until the work is completed the pres
ent end wall of the Glass Block will re-
main. About Aug. 1, when the contrac

M0RE.PLUMS TO GIVE
Why County Commissioners Want
Full Authority to Name Ad-
ditional Deputy Sheritfs. "
At Present the District Judges Are
a-Check on the Com
missioners. rs .

County Commissioner NJ. W. Nash, and
L. P. Sweet retiring member Of the same
board, are said to have devised the plan
for increasing the patronage Of the board
which was made public at meeting of
the Hennepin legislative delegation held
in the municipal court rooms Tuesday
evening and which ernbodies a change in
the present laws governing the appoint
ment of deputy sheriffs.".~
The present law makes it incumbent
upon the sheriff, when he desires to. ap-
point deputies, to secure the consent of
the district court judges The proposed
change removes this authority from the
Judges and vests it in the county board.
/ It is an open secret that Sheriff Dreger' S
appointments have, heretofore, been DIG
tated by the commissioners who elected
him to the office following the removal
of Sheriff Megaarden by Governor Van
SAINT. The judges have never interfered
in the matter, except to limit the number
of appointees, but this has caused trouble,
and the commissioners would be very glad
to get the whole waiter into their own
hands without reservation.
|; Since his induction into office Sheriff
;;Dreger or one Of his deputies, usually
Chief Deputy Jones, has made no. fewer
than dozen applications to the Judges
for additional help. These applications
have been informal and have been refused
Naturally the commissioners were dis
gruntled and men who were slated fol
appointment, provided. the appointments
could be made, have even gone so far as
to threaten at least one member of this
| bench with political extinction if he die
not submit to the demands made upon
| him. The judges say that every possible
excuse has been urged as reasons why
additional appointments should be per,
| mitted. They say, too, that it may b.
| true that the force of the sleriff's office
! may, at times, be too small to handle the
work of the department., but add tina

except sit in their seats during the hour!
