COUNTY BUYS A HOLE IN GROUND.
Investigation Wen Not wh 1t Seemed Be-

What the county commissioners as
sert was an attempt to defraud the
county out Of a large sum of money,
was unearthed yesterday afternoon, at
which time an investigation was made
into the manner in which the contract
had been carried out in the sinking of
the county we'll at Wildwood
This investigation was made by
County Surveyor Irvine, in the pres
ence of the members of the county
board and County Treasurer Metzdorf,
who has long desired the investigation.
Contractor J. f. Mccarthy, of Mime
apolis, who had the contract for the
well, was not present at the investi-
cation. although notified in ample
tile.
The well was ordered by the county
commissioners last spring, the con-
tract being awarded to Mccarthy on
his bid of 1886 per foot for a ten-inch
piped we'll. A bid of $3.45 per foot was
turned down for the reason that the
bidder said 1t would be impossible to
sink the we'll without reducing the
size to eight inches after a certain
depth had been reached. The county
wanted a ten-inch we'll all the way.
and upon the assurance Of Contractor
Mccarthy that he would do the work
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1903-02-21

in this manner, he was given the con-
tract at the higher price.
The work was done without anyone
representing the county being present
to superintend it, and when 1t was
completed to what the contractor
claimed was 576 feet, a bill was pre-
sented to the county for $3.50. The
ccunty-surveyor approved the bill and
the county commissioners passed it
without any investigation as to the
condition of the we'll.
When Contractor Mccarthy took his
warrant to the county treasurer and
demanded the money, Treasurer Metz
dorf refused to honor the warrant, and
at the next meeting of the board he
suggested that some investigation
should be made of the manner in which
the contract had been carried out This
investigation was made yesterday.
"Shy" of Piping.
Unsteady of being 576 feet deep, the
well was found to be 552 feet deep. A
ten-inch piping was supposed to reach
to the bottom of the hole, but when a
test was made 1t was found that the
ten-inch piping went down but 149
feet, at which point it fell off to eight
inch piping. There were seventy feet
of this eight-inch piping and the re-
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1903-02-21

mainder of the we'll had no piping at
all.
While several of the commissioners
have held suspicious regarding the
well, there was considerable surprise
at the result Of yesterdays investiga-
ton. The commissioners believe the
showing made yesterday will give them
loophole through which to get out
of something that has been growing
more disagreeable each week. The
Wildwood well is an elephant on the
county's hands, and the loose manner
in which the contract was let has re-
suited in much criticism of the men,
bers.
Since the street car company has re-
fused to furnish power for pumping
the we'll, it is of no use to the county
| unless several thousand dollars addi-
tional are expended on the project. 1t
! is located on the property of the Twin
City Rapid Transit company, in Wash
ington county, and the conditions are
such that the county commissioners
would be pleased to let loose in a
graceful manner.
AT the next meeting of the board
a resolution will be introduced which
will provide for rejecting the we'll on
the grounds that the work has not been
| done according to contract.

LA PORTE, Ind. Feb. 2o.-Alex
Young, Of La Porte, an astronomer, to-

mountain sides with great and precipf-
tous rocks, which glow with prismatic
colors, mingled with the greenness Of
a perennial vegetation and with floral
radiance more beautiful than that on
earth. Beyond these mountains, he
saw valleys and plains where people
live.
He says the solar spectrum is d.
vision of the component parts of the
electric current proceeding from the
sun after it enters the confines of the
earth's atmosphere, upon which is cleo
trographed the image of the solar fields
of color and which spread over the vast

BOARD ASKS S3,OOO,OOO
ADOPT WIDE OPEN POLICY
House Passes Bill for Con-
stitutional Amendment
Placing the Subject of Tax
alton Entirely in Hands of
Legislature = Only Ten
Negative Votes Recorded.

The house late yesterday afternoon
passed the judiciary committees bill
Tor amendment of the constitutional
tax provisions by a vote Of 80 to 10.
The measure passed provides the
wide open" policy, in that it leaves the
subject of taxation, save for a few
public policy reservations, entirely in
the hands of the legislature. The bill
was passed identically as 1t came from
the committee despite strenuous efforts
TO tack on amendments of the safe
guard character or extension of con-
stitutional restrictions.
All in Ore Section.
The bill proposes the wiping out of
sections i, 2, and 4 and of article
OF the constitution and substituting
therefor single section containing
little more than 100 words The new
section provides that,
The power of taxation shall never
be surrendered or suspended: that
taxes shall be uniform upon the same
class OF subjects and collected by gen.
eral laws for public purposes"
That is really all of the proposed
new section of the constitution design
ed to take the place of the present
four sections. The exemption of prop
erty used exclusively for religious, edu-
catlonal, charitable, cemetery, govern
mental or public purposes are the ex-
emptions of the present constitution,
and the only exemption change is that
making 1t possible for the legislature
to raise the personal property exemp-
ton, which the constitution now fixes
at $500, to $500. The bill provides that
the entire text of the proposed amend
ment shall be printed on the ballot.
All Changes Rejected.
Every attempt to amend the bill in
cussion settled by tabling motion.
The friends of the measure insisted
that no amendments be tackled on be-
cause the bill as drawn was sufficient
ly terse, comprehensive and clear to
be fully understood by the people, and
they purposed to take no chances by
allowing the bill to become involved
In its terms and thereby excite the sus-
picions of the voters.
The principal fights for amendments
were made by Messrs. Hickey, Fosseen
and Shearer. Mr.. Hickey wanted the
constitution plainly to restrict assess
ment for taxation to a basis of a fair
cash valuation of the property assess
ed. Mr.. Fosseen thought the provision
against suspension or surrender of the
power of taxation insufficient, and
wanted it to include the question of
contract and Mr.. Shearer objected to
eXemptfng the property of cemetery
corporations from taxation.
Only Ten Negative Votes.
The temper of the house was plainly
against any amendment, and only ten
votes We're recorded against the meas
ure; nineteen were absent or did not
vote.

CARACAS, Feb 20.-The morning
papers here publish a protest directed
to Venezuela, the United States and
the European nations, as follows:
TN order that the public may know
how Germany, Great Britain and Ital-
ian execute their agreement, we. call
attention to the grave fact that up to
today, Feb. 20, the ships taken by the
three powers have not been delivered

stipulated by the protocols"
The German commodore has notified
the authorities at Porto CabelIo that

A revolutionary army, estimated at
$500 men, has reached q point about
twenty miles south of Caracas. The
revolutionists and the government
troops both occupy strong positions.
The revolution organized by Gen.
Matos during the blockade of the Ven
ezuelan coast by the allied warships
was reorganized and three armies
formed. One, under the command of
Antonio Fernandez, numbering 1900
men, was routed near CalaboZo, in the
province of Miranda, several days ago,
and its chief is now fleeing in the di-
rection of the River Apure. The Sec
ond army, led by Gems. Mantilla and
Sotagnie, 1,200 strong, was defeated
last Wednesday near Urachiche. The
third army, commanded by Gen. Ro-
lando Penaloza and Vidal, which was
expecting to meet the first two armies,
arrived yesterday by way of Santa
Lucia and Guarenas, at a point ten
miles from Petare, which is situated
ten miles southeast of Caracas. The
strength of this third army is esti-
mated at 2,800. 1t has taken up a
strong position and the troops sent
against it by the government are also
strongly placed.

the conference, said to the press rep
resentatives that 1t was the Northern
Pacif1c's application.
Lines will enter the province at five
different points, but the principal cen
ter Of radiation will be Emerson. If
the application is /favorably received
construction work will commence early
In the spring.
While 1t cannot be said with GER
treated, 1t is generally supposed that 1t
will meet with approval.
Public sentiment in Winnipeg is gen
orally in favor of the Northern Pacific,
and all along it has been said that if
the promoter of the projected line
proved to be the Northern Pacific the
charter would be granted.
The prevailing feeling was voiced in
recent interview with Colin H. Camp
bell, the attorney general, who said:
I'VE have no prejudice against the
Northern Pacific, although certain par
ties have tried to make political capt.
tai out of statements to the effect that
we have. We have no intention of him
dering the Northern Pacific's building
of roads in this province"
Mr.. Hamilton announced that five
gentlemen mentioned constitute the
provisional directors for Manitoba.
President c.. E. Mellen, of the North
ern Pacific, when asked last evening in
regard to the proposed system Of rail-
roads, refused to make any statement
except: Il have no information to give

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Feb. 20.--Cole
Younger's sweetheart of former days is
dit last saw her she was nineteen years
old. Today he saw her for the first
time in more than twenty-seven years.
He did not recognize her. 1t is hard
for him to understand that time is re-
morseless and that since he was a free
man in Jackson county people have
grown older and many changes have
been made in the scenes once so fa-

His old sweetheart" lives on the

and mother for almost a quarter of a
century. Younger knew that she had
married, but during his prison life her
features were enshrined in his heart.
Of all the old-time friends he loved her
best. He speaks of his love for her in
an open manner. To a friend he said:
81 have never forgotten. I can still
remember just how she looked when I
last saw her. Her bright eyes were al
ways a sort of magnet, and her red
cheeks were beacon lights. We were
good friends, so want to see her, for
until | do l will not be able to realize
fully that I am again home"
Younger entered the East side home
and was given a cordial greeting. The
grandmother, mother and child stood
before him. He gave the grandmother
