STATE WILL APPEAL.
Judqe Lochren's Decision Discussed
BY Governor Van SAINT.
From Mondays Daily.

Gov. Van SAINT issued statement in
regard to Judge Lochren's decision, as
follows:
81 do not feel in the least discouraged
by the decision of the court this morn
ing. 1t simply means that the case will
have to be finally decided by the court OF
last resort. The state will immediately
appeal and every effort will be made by
its attorney general and his able as
sociates to protect the interests of the
people The fight is going to continue
until our laws are vindicated and up
held; until it is conclusively shown that
by indirection, results cannot be accom-
plished which our laws were intended to
prevent; that the creations of another
state cannot be used to accomplish here
that which is against the declared policy
of this state; that competition shall not
be smothered; that it shall be open, ac-
tive and potential; that dummies shall
not be directors, officers and agents to so
operate The railroads of Minnesota that
our laws shall be nulliied and rendered
ineffective. | have faith to believe that
the final decision will be in favor of the
state and that the Northern Securities
company will be dissolved.
$50 far as this decision will modify
or destroy the wholesome effect of tne
decision of the court in the government
case upon the business interests of the
country, it is to be regretted"

Mr.. JAMES IN THE VAN.
Former Mankato Man Getting to the
Front in Seattle.

In recent issue of The Seattle Post
Intelligencer the story is told of how
that city disposed of 100000 worth of
bonds at par and bearing 3.75 per cent
The Post -Intelligencer says: line city
council at its meeting last evening re-
ceived communication from Comp
troller Riplinger, in which he notified the
body, OF the bid that had been received
from the secretary of the board of state
land commissioners. Councilman James,
chairman of the finance committee, at
once rose and said that in moving the
acceptance of the bid he wished hearth
ly to congratulate both the city and the
state.
The state, said Mr.. James, would Sc
cure the soundest possible investment of
its surplus school funds in loaning to a
municipality that had never defaulted
for day in the payment of a cent on
the principal or interest of it's indebted
ness, and the city would secure the splen-
did tribute to its credit of having so
large loan taken in bulk at so low a
rate of interest by those who knew more
intimately its financial condition, its
character and its resources than any pri-
vate investor possibly could.
Councilman Rinehart, in seconding the
motion to accept the bid, added his con-
gratulations, which were made those of
the council, to both Comptroller RIPPING
er and Councilman James for the parts
they had played in securing the offer
from the state. The motion to accept
the bid was unanimously carried with
great, though undemonstrative, jubila-
ton.
The bids, or rather the bid, for that of
the state was only one, was opened IN
the office of the state treasurer yester-
day afternoon. The secretary of the
state board of land commissioners made
the bid as stated, with the following con-
ditions: Four hundred thousand dollars
of the bonds are to be designated series
A, dated July q, 1903, running twenty
years, with the option in the city to call
them at any time after five years. They
are to be in denominations OF $1,000 and
are to be delivered as soon as possible,
payment being made on delivery, but
without accrued interest for the time
between their date and their delivery.
The Mr.. James referred to was former
ly a resident of Mankato, and always
took considerable interest in politics
when here. Mr.. James appears to be in
the van at Seattle.

GREAT DESIRE TO STEAL
Sensational Career Of Marshall, MINI !,
Youth of Fifteen.
Has Stolen Thousands of Dollars
Worth of Property.
Takes Articles For Which He Has
No Earthly Use.
Cannot Control Himself-.Peculiar Case
-.Goes to Reform School.
From Mondays Daily.

Willie Nichols, Marshall, MIMI,
youth, who was arrested for stealing at
Britt last week, has had a sensational
career for one only fifteen years of age.
At the age of nine he began to steal
everything he could lay his hands on, no
matter whether he wanted it or not. He
has stolen thousands of dollars worth of
property in addition to the cash he has
taken. picked locks and broken locks
and stolen keys. His father says he
will get pocketful of keys in a day.
At school he stole twenty-four jack
knives one day and was not detected,
although all were from the pockets of his
companions. He was experimenting
with battery at Pipestone, Mimi, a
few months ago-had stolen the bat
terry. stolen the dynamite cap, and brok-
en- three locks to get them, the explosion
took two fingers off his left hand and
badly mangled it otherwise. One would
think that would have a reforming ten
dency. but the lesson did not last until
the hand had recovered. Within thirty
days he went through half dozen more
buildings. business college, furniture
STORE. lulllD6I OlllCS. ctC. dilNI StOlC nun
dreds of things, carrying them home and
burying them in his fathers cellar. They
were all recovered and restored and all
this with his hand still in the sling.
His father has spent fortune trying to
reform him and has settled hundreds OF
dollars of his thievery, as well as watch
ing him and returning thousands of dol
lars of his speculations. The specialist,
in the hospital at Rochester, Mimi, has
had the lad under his care and has pro-
nounced him insane to the degree OF
kleptomaniacy The lad is bright and
intelligent, is good looking and shows
no remorse whatever. and describes the
mania for stealing as uncomfortable yet
he will lie to the very last before admit
ting anything in regard to the theft. He
has been chastised in every way possible
during his incarceration at Red Wing,
with no effect whatever. The father is
willing to do anything whatever to re-
form the lad. He seems to be moral
degenerate, completely, so far as steal
inc is concerned, vet he could be trusted
with hundreds of dollars if given him and
sent to dispose of the money. 1t is case
that has puzzled the best physicians of
Minnesota and they say it is one of the
worst cases of kleptomania on record.
He has been at North Platte, Neb., Kan
sas City, Fort Scott, Springfield, Mo-, st.
Louis, Sioux City and Fort Smith, Ark,
all since last March, sometimes stealing
a ride, sometimes paying his fare He is
a boy who will make a dozen friends in
any town in an hour. The boy will be
sent back to Redwing, but no one doubts
but that he will not be in the confines of
the reformatory more than day.
