Another feature of the 1904 program
is the holding of Catholic Day. For
this New Ulm offers exceptional
advantages, as it would be possible to
fix the date so that it would fall upon
a Sunday. when the laboring classes
would be able to leave their work and
participate in the exercises and cere-
monies. Provisions would be made
for prominent men to address the
crowds and an attendance from all
parts of Southern Minnesota would
be expected.
This years convention is held at
Wabasha next Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday, September 18th, Doth and
Both. Directors of ST. Joseph's Verein
will leave here Sunday afternoon for
Wabasha and the party will include

to be able to return home Wednesday

Necessary to Amputate.

Mrs. Reinhold Mueller, who was
bitten by an angry cat some time ago,
had the middle finger of her left hand
amputated Monday. Mrs. Mueller re-
ceived the wounds which proved so
serious on September 9Th. She had
arranged to give the cat away but
while she was carrying the animal out
the house it turned upon her and
seized her middle finger, biting to the
bone in two places. The hand became
swollen and physician was summoned
but in few days her condition seemed
to improve and she did not suffer from
her hurts until last week. On Satur-
day blood poison began developing
and to arrest the spread of this Drs.
O. C. Stricken and J. II. Vogel per-
formed an operation Monday morning
1t was found that the bone was necrosed
but since having the finger removed
the patient is improving.

new ULM WANTS MEETING
City Will Try For Catholic Con.
ventiOn Next Year. :
Many Delegates Attend Sessions of
Aid Society.
Planned to Have Big Catholic Day
in Connection.

There is reason to believe that tie
annual convention of the German
Catholic Benevolent Aid Association
will come to New Ulm in 1904. Sunday
afternoon at a meeting of St. Joseph's
Understandings Verein, resolution
was adopted authorizing the directors
of the society to extend an invitation
to the convention and they will put
forth every effort to obtain reco gnition
for New Ulm. AS this town has not
had the convention for exactly ten
years it would seem that the chances
of getting the meeting are of the best
and the local delegates expect to be
given preference.
However, the meeting will not be
secured without struggle. Already
the city of LIE Sueur is in the field and
it is understood that the Winona and
St. Cloud delegations have designs
upon the plum. They will work hard
at Wabasha next week but neverthe-
less New Ulm's chances of winning
are regarded as bright. In reality the
convention is one of the most i'm
portant held in Minnesota. It's sessions
attract between $50 and 400 delegates
and in addition it is customary for
societies in adjacent towns to attend
in bodies.
Thus New Ulm would draw from St.
Peter, LIE Sueur, Mankato, St. James,
Sleepy Eye, Springfield and other
places and it would not be surprising
if the city would be called upon to
entertain as many as one thousand
persons upon one or more days of the
convention. Ten years ago the meet
| ing here was very successful and next
year it will be on far more elaborate
scale, as the association has prospered
greatly since 1898 and its membership
is much larger.
One year from now, also, the Stats
Verbund will meet in convention al
the same time the German Catholic
Benevolent Aid Association is ir
session. This society was founded il
New Ulm in 1898 and is absolutely
independent of the insurance section
it having as its object the bonding
together of all the Catholic organi
cations in the state. It has separate
set of officers and meets once in two
years.

Meyer Bros, of Mankato.

LILLER OUT OF THE WAY
No Further Obstacle TO Merger Of
Spanish Was Veteran Societies

Colonel J. Fl. MCClintock. commander
of the department of Arizona and New
Mexico, Spanish American War Veter-
ans, has received from the chief officers
of that organization, including Russell
r. Harrison, judge advocate general,
official correspondence concerning and
an official copy of a decree of the COM
mon pleas court of Lancaster county,
Pa, permanently restraining William C..
Liller from acting or pretending to act
as adjutant general of the Spanish
American War Veterans.
The publication of this fact will be OF
interest to all members of that organi-
zatiOn and others who are familiar with
it's history. Mention was made in re-
cent article in this paper that Liller
had been suppressed, though the official
record was not then at hand.
Liller, it is believed. has fed the
country, a fugitive from justice, and
charges are made that he has devoted
to his own purposes funds belonging to
the organizati ton which he secured
While assuming to be its adjutant gem
eral after having been depcsed at
convention held in Cincinnati over Il
year ago He held that the convention
was not a legal body and could not GUST
him. 1t is asserted that while pretend
ing to be adjutant for some months
succeeding he received money from
various sources for official supplies
which he did not furnish: in fact, could
not furnish. not having them in his
possession. But he kept the money.
Just before the San Francisco con-
vention in August he forwarded his re-
signation. That materially harmonized
mutters, fer the few who had supported
lin in his fight were then willing to
quit Lller was really at the head of
the faction that opposed the consoli-
dation of the society with other Span
ISL war veteran societies, and with him
out of the way the San Francisco con-
vention was practically a unit for con-
solidation Colonel McClintock's IN
formation from headuarters now is that
there is practically no obstacle to con
SolidatiCn of these organizations, and
the three known as the Spanish-Ameri-
can War Veterans, the Spanish War
Veterans and the Service Men of the
Spanish War will probably unite at al:
early day A committee OF the S. a.
w V. appointed to effect this end will
meet in Philadelphia the latter part of
the month, and in few weeks the an
nUal encampment of the Spanish War
Veterans will Jbe held in New. Haven,
at which it is expected the move voted
for in San Francisco by the S. a. w. V.
Will be ratified
