GIVES WARNING
AGAINST ENGLISH
Aquilas Diltzer Says They
Will Invade States and
Kill Roosevelt.

The English are secretly prepar-
ing to take up arms against the United
States. When their plans are perfect
ed they are to come down the ST. Law
renee river and take possession OF
this country and kill President Roose-
Welt.
This is the information volunteered
to the police yesterday by Aquilas
DiltZer, a Hungarian, who now occu-
pies the insane ward at the county
Jail. DiltZer walked into town Mon
day from North Dakota and stopped
at the Capitol hotel While at the
hotel 1T was noticed that he acted
very queerly, and yesterday when he
left the hotel he encountered a po-
liceman on the street and asked to be
directed to the chief Of police.
DiltZer said he wanted to warn
Chief O'Connor that the English had
been preparing for this secret inva-
sion for some time, and he was in pos
session of information which indicated
that they were about ready to make
the move.
TITS nothing to me-" said Diltzer,
except that I like this government,
and want to do what any good citizen
would do, and that is why am giving
this warning. They are sure to come,
and If this country does not prepare
for them they will surprise US, and
control the country. Their plan is to
invade the states and then kill Presi-
dent Roosevelt"
DiltZer was examined by DR.. Paul
Cook and pronounced insane, and he
will be sent back to North Dakota,
where he came from

at is well to sometimes tell the
truth!
I'm. these latter days when hear men
tell Of the dangers from within and
dangers from without that menace us,
I have for them but one answer. I tell
them that for a country that, within
the short space of a few months, pro-
duced such heroes as America did in
the year of 1851 there is no need to
fear. For the republic and all the sa-
cred truths it stands, l have no fears
so long as men are willing to leave
their homes and businesses and lay
their lives and interests upon the pub
lie altar, as was exemplifed during the
years of the Civil war;" said Archbish-
op Ireland at the banquet given by the
Loyal Legion at the Ryan hotel last
night.
Fully 125 persons sat down to the
repast and upon its termination a pa
per was read by Gen. Lewis A. Grant,
entitled 1.-The Second Division, Sixth
Corps, at Cedar Creek" Part of this
division was commanded by the reader
who was, during the chiefship of Red
field Proctor, assistant secretary OF
war.
The paper dealt very exhaustively
with all the movements of that mem
orable battle and told in graphic Ian
guage of the wonderful ride of Gen.
L
with rapt attention and at its conclu-
sion the reader was cheered to the
echo.
At this juncture a toast was propos-
ed to the dead who fen in that bloody
field and rout Amid a silence that
could be felt the body of men
with heads of silver white, drained
their glasses.
Archbishop Ireland then arose and
told of his experiences at Corinth
where he was chaplain and rendered
some very strong compliments to Gen.
Hubbard, of the Fifth Minnesota who
was present last night.

COAL SITUATION
MAY GROW WORSE
Soft Coal Famine Is Due at
Any Time In st.
Paul.

Another week may see coal condi-
tons in st. Paul similar to those now
CONFUSING consumers and a horde Of
investigating committees in Chicago
and the East. The SPECTATORS see in
the Northwest an unplucked field, and.
according to reports, are preparing to
get busy.
soft coal famine is due almost any
day In ST. Paul. Local coal men saw
so, and further add that it's delay de-
ponds solely on the activity and hust-
ling qualities of the railroads entering
the SANITY City. Should they miss a
Shipment one day, consumers would
suffer.
According to the picture which some
or the coal men paint, local consumers
are keeping even with every pound of
coal brought into st. Paul, and 1t is
only by the closest figuring that they
are kept supplied.~ Should extreme
cold result or freight trains be delay
ed, then the famine would result.
While many householders are now
using soft coal, the bulk Of 1T goes to
the factories and office buildings and
1t is those that would suffer in the
event that the supply was diminished.
Most OF them made contracts for the
season long before a soft coal short
age. was threatened, but If the receipts
diminish the dealers cannot deliver the
diamonds.
The latest cry of soft coal famine
pretty accurately presages a raise in
prices, and it Is expected that another
week will see the figures boosted. In
any event, the raise will not be more
than 81 on the ton, but 1t will be
increased as the alleged scarcity be-
comes greater

MAY CONTEST
GILFILLAN WILL
Testament Entailing Prop.
erty May Be Lit
gated.

1t was stated yesterday that the will
of the late c. D. Gillian, who died
recently, leaving an estate valued at
$1,O00,000, would be contested by the
heirs, who are said to be dissatisfied
with the construction placed upon Ger
tain clauses in the document
Interested parties were not inclined
to talk regarding the matter yesterday,
although 1t was admitted at the office
OF Attorney c. N. Bell that friend
ly contest would probably be made
for the purpose of having the construc-
ton OF the disputed clauses decided by
the courts.
In whose name this contest is to be
brought could not be learned, although
all of the heirs are supposed to be
interested, as the terms of the will
are said to be such that the prop
erty is tied up for three generations.
When seen at his home last night,
DR.. James S. Gflfillan, a son, and one
of the heirs of the late Mr.. GilfIIan,
stated that the will left by his father
was one made several years ago, but
he denied knowledge Of any contest
to be made.
Attorney c. N. Bell said the will
would be filed for probate within the
next two or three days, and until that
time he would have nothing to say
regarding the matter.
The estate, Mr.. Bell said, is valued
at about $1,000,000, which is left to
the family of tbs deceased. The sur
viving members of the family consist
of the widow, two sons and two daugh-
ters. 1t is understood the heirs wish

by the terms of which the property will
be turned over to them unconditional

PLENTIFUL
IN ALEXANDRIA
Inspector Sinks Finds 11e Cases, Due
to Lack of Quarantining.

II. c. Sinks, one Of the state board
of health inspectors, returned yester-
day from Alexandria, Douglas county,
where there are 118 cases of smallpox.
1.-THE conditions were something
frightful," said Inspector Sinks yester-
day afternoon, owing to there having
been no quarantine enforced and in
fact nothing done to prevent the
spread of the disease. Lately, owing
to the action taken by the state board
of health, there has been more atten-
ton paid to the cases. There are now
twelve families Quarantined and the
local health officers are doing their
best to stamp out the disease.
"The editor of one Of the papers,
when the condition Of affairs was call
ed to his attention, published an arti-
Gle advising all persons to report cases
to the health officials and the day fol-
lowing went to his house and found
six members of his family suffering
from smallpox. There was some talk
of Quarantining the town but now that
the officials have gone to work in a
busfness-like way this action will not
be taken"

TESTS FOOD FOR THE
FEDERAL SOLDIERS
Commissary Darrah inspects Samples
of Rations Offered.

capt. Thomas w. Darrah, chief COM
mlssary of the department Of Dakota,
ana his assistant, spent a busy day
yesterday testing samples of various
KINDS of food and groceries submitted
by ST. Paul and Minneapolis wholesale
dealers in connection with bids for
contracts to furnish supplies for the
army in the department. New con-
tracts are let each quarter, and special
examinations and tests are applied to-
ali the articles submitted as samples.
Many dealers send In samples and
bids, for the business of furnishing
the army with rations is sought after.
as a large amount of each article is
required and the pay is sure. Each
dealer yesterday sent in hundreds of
samples Of all kinds of staple groceries.
SUCH as flour, canned goods, spices,
naVorfng extracts, etc. Capt. Thomas
w. Darrah, chief commissary, has
charge of the work, and C. E. West,
an expert tester. subjects each article
to careful examination and scientific
test. The soldiers are in this man.
ner protected from eating adulterated
foods.
The process of testing is interest
ing TO an observer. Mr.. West took
can of tomatoes, opened it, poured
part of the contents into q vial smelt
of 1t, tasted 1t and dropped in a portion
of some acid for the purpose of as
certaining whether the preparation
was free. from foreign elements A
clerk with. a record then took down
the result Of the test. In this manner
all of the things were examined, their
brands and qualities noted, and enter
ed opposite the prices for a specified
quantity quoted by the merchant SUBJ
hitting them.
When all the goods are examined
and recorded in this manner, the rec
ords and the bids are compared and
contracts are awarded according to
quality and price. One large room was
nearly filled with boxes containing
samples. and 1t took all Mr.. Vests
time yesterday to get through q little
over half. iFhe work will probably be
finished and the contracts awarded in
a few days.
All the post.comnissaries of the de-
partment of3Dakota have to be sup
piled with eatables and the total cost
of the groceries to be contracted for
at this time will aggregate about $780,
600. Capt Darrah also contracts for
supplies Of perishabIe articles each
month, and expends a total of about
$4,000 every year to feed the SOL
diers.

s'KILTIES' ARE GREETED
BY SCOTTISH FRIENDS
Entertainment at Peoples Church Is
a Great Success.

Two large and appreciative au-
diences filled the Peoples church yes
terday afternoon and evening to listen
to the stirring music Of the Kilties
band, dressed in the picturesque cos
tune of the Gordon highlanders, I'M
der the leadership Of William F. Rob-
inSon.
The afternoon programme Of four
teen numbers and the evening of the
same number were heightened out by
numerous encores demanded by the
audiences Of whom not few were
Scotch. The Bagpipe solo by Sergeant
Ferguson was enthusiastically ap-
plauded. especially by those who had
seen the pipers in their native land
and Understood the quaint strains.
Sergeant Ferguson is also q clever
dancer, and has a fine tenor voice. The
numbers rendered by the Kilties' choir
of thirteen voices were especially we'll
received, and it is doubtful If the in
strumental numbers were any more
appreciated.
The reel dancers, the trombone solo
by Harry Have, the tenor solo by
J. Coates Lockhart and the dancing
by Master Eugene Lockhart were all
of a high order and deserve special
mention. Previous to the afteroon
concert the Kilties gave a street par
ade, their gigantic drum major lead
ing the band.
