MAKESBICL ANDSALE.
State Disposes of 1000 Acres
at $3.50 Per.

Sinclair e. Atkins, land clerk In the
state auditors Office returned yester-
day from Princeton, where, on the
preceding day, he conducted a sale Of
school and university lands in Mile
Laos county.
This was by far the most successful
of the recent series of sales, and the
amount of land sold was as large as
the aggregate of the sales in the other
six counties. There were $1,000 acres
sold and the average price was $3.50.
which is regarded as surprisingly high
in consideration of the fact that no
tract in the entire list is less than
seven or eight miles from a railroad
line, and some are as far as thirty
miles. The high price was $12 per
acre.
This sale leaves but 5000 acres of
school and university lands unsold in
Mile Laos county, and of this only
$500 was offered at this time, there
being no live appraisals on the re-
naming portion.
The land sold is practically all pine
land that has been cut over in past
years.

HE PASSES SUDDENLY
Death Comes to Frank X. Bren-
nan Without Warning.


While preparing to retire to bed
Tuesday night at his home, 214 East
Robe street, Frank x. Brennan fell
dead of heart failure.
AS Brennan's wife and family are in
the East visiting, his death was not
known till yesterday morning, when
he was missed at Schuneman & Evans
store, where he, is assistant manager OF
the clothing department.
A messenger was sent to the house,
which was found locked. AS neighbors
had not seen Brennan, the Ducas street
police station was notified and an Off
Ger was sent to Investigate. The door
was forced and a search of the house
revealed the dead body of Brennan ly-
ing near bed in small room on the
second floor. He was half dressed, in
dicating that he was about to retire,
when he was stricken.
The body was removed to D. w.
Hurley's undertaking rooms and an
autopsy was held yesterday afternoon.
Death was found to have been due to
heart disease, from which he had been
suffering for some time.
Brennan's wife and two children left
home last week for a visit in the East,
and he had been living at home alone.
Mrs. Brennan was notified yesterday.
The funeral arrangements will not be
made until she arrives.
Deceased was forty-four years old.
He had resided in st. Paul ten years.

IS NOT WORRYING
Gas Company Doesn't Fear
Buffalo Mans Project.

The st. Paul Gas company is not
worrying itself over the offer of Buff
falo individual who wants to supply ST.
Paul with gas at IS cents per thousand
cubic feet.
"The process is a new one on me-
said President Lathrop, Of the gas
company, yesterday. This party says
he can compete with natural gas, but I
fail to see where he has done so. Buff
falo has natural gas. and I imagine he
would try the experiment there, but I
cannot find any record that he has
done, so. am inclined to doubt the
whole thing"
The story was about the city hall
yesterday that the council would try
to drive a trade in some of the fran
chise points in dispute by submitting
dollar gas to begin next year for either
the purchase or reversfon clause, both
of which are distasteful to the gas
company. Under the agreement now
proposed 81 gas does not begin until
1907. The price next year would be
$1.15. s
The gas officials yesterday were un-
willing to talk Of the compromise fea-
lures proposed at the last meeting of
the council, preferring to wait until
the matter can be discussed with the
legal department. and those Of the
council who are interesting themselves
in the new franchise. The officials
have hopes of an amicabIe adjustment
of the controversy at an early date.

all offices, and the closing, during the
afternoon, at least, of many of the
business houses.
The offices in the state capitol, fed
eral building, court house and city hall
will be closed during the entire day,
except that there will be one session
of police court this forenoon
All of the postal stations in the city
will remain open for business until 10
o'clock in the forenoon, and there will
be one delivery of mail at 9 o'clock.
The day will be generally observed
in religious way, special services
having been arranged at many of the

churches of the same denomination
will join in union services. At all of
the church services especial attention
has been given the musical programme.
AT the Universalist chapel, on Mac

WILL TAKE FINAL
ACTION ON BUDGET
Conference Committee Will
Complete Its Work Tomor.
row Afternoon.

The conference committee will pass
upon the budget tomorrow afternoon,
when it will go to the two bodies of
the council for revision or approval, as
they may see fit.
1t is hardly likely that the conference
committee will make any more addi-
tons, but the council IS pretty sure to
swell the total trife. In fact, several
Of the members have given notice Of
appropriation for improvements for
which they will ask.
Another appropriation of from $780,
900 to $780, 900 is absolutely necessary If
the sewer system planned for st. An
thony Park Is to be completed, and
Aid. Dobner, who represents that To-
cality, will undoubtedly ask for the
money.
For street intersection paving the
conference committee provided an item
of $4,000, but it is almost certain that
this figure will be boosted. Therefore,
a number of streets that the council
will try to have paved during 1904, and
in order to aid those who will have to
pay the cost, appropriations for paw
ing the intersections will be asked for.
The meeting tomorrow of the con-
ference committee will be public one,
the charter providing for it, in order
that any taxpayer who desires 1t may
air his views regarding the expense

It is understood that the Commercial
club will again appear before the con-
ference committee and ask for an ap-
preparation for an auditorium.

not only the direct results but the in
direct results of beet-Sugar cultivation,
would be even more beneficial.
Wants Sugar Made at Home.
For my part, instead of having one
of our principal food products produced
on baronial estates, owned by non-res-
ident landlords in tropical chimes, by
semi slave labor consuming little OF
our products, and always menace TO
our institutions, 1 prefer to have our
sugar grown in our own land by the
small farmer in the midst of civiliza-
ton which he and his family do SO
much to support and who consumes the
best of our native products.
Il prefer to see the manufacturing
done in our smaller communities scat
tered all over the land, owned by thou
sands of small investors, rather than
to have it all done by a grasping mo-
nopoly in few of the larger cities Of
the country and distributed under the
rigid regime of the sugar trust.

Federal Building Appropriation.
1--WE haven't got started on local
matters yet, and none of the bills intro
duced for the benefit of st. Paul and
vicinity will come up until during the
regular session. I shall try to get a
place in the general building bill for
an appropriation of $350,000 for the
completion of the federal building.
That is, have asked for that amount,
but we may have to be contented with
$250000, which l think will do the work
quite satisfactorily.
"If the river and harbor bill is in
troduced I shall try to secure an ap
ton of the lock and dam between here
and Minneapolis. We may also ask
for other improvements.
CAS- soon as / return | shall take up
the Fort Smelling bridge matter. Of
course, could do nothingson that until
the war department made it's report.
This session of congress will not be
a very important one. There will be a
general discussion of all matters, but
little legislation. 1t isn't advisable for
either party, and there never is much
legislation just before election"
Congressman Stevens will return to
Washington some time next week in
order to be in readiness for the regular
session which will open week from
next Monday. AS the senate has set a
date for consideration Of the Cuban
bill, there will be no more business be-
fore the special session and the houses
will simply adjourn from day to day
until the opening of the regular ses-
sion.

Says Cuban ReciprocityHas
the Call and After That

bic Deal With Canada
VIII Probably Be Taken
UPS Againstthe Cuban
Bill Because He Favors
Building Up the Beet
Sugar Industry at Home.



cit is very likely that some steps to-
ward securing reciprocity with Canada
will be taken before long," said Con-
gresham Fred c. Stevens to T e
Globe yesterday. II am told that
the president favors it, and there is
more interest than ever before among
the congressman.
81 have talked with President Roose
welt and Secretary Root concerning
the matter, and both seemed quite ia
vorabIe toward it. I am told that as
soon as this Cuban reciprocity matter
is settled and the feeling over the de-
cision in the Alaska boundary case is
somewhat allayed in Canada, the pres
ident will take up the question and try
and bring about some understanding
with our Northern neighbor.
There promises to be good deal OF
discussion in congress this session over
the matter, but, of course, no action
can bet taken until the countries come
to some understanding. l, for one,
shall make a speech on the question,
and others will also do so, 1 believe:
Should the president take a stand for
Canadian reciprocity, he will receive a
large nom partisan support, as many of
the Democrats as well as Republicans
are in favor of the change.
'T do not anticipate any trouble in
securing a reciprocity agreement with
Canada because of the recent Alaska
decision. There is some hard feeling
there now, but the more able and cool
men see clearly that we got only what
we were entitled to.
Canadians generally, I believe, are
of the opinion that there is more to be
Pow ~, oit n
the United States than in preferential
trade, with England.
IF the Laurier ministry is indorsel
at the next election in Canada, soon
to be held, I look for efforts on both
sides to secure reciprocity. The de-
mand in this country for reciprocity
has become so strong that some agree
ment is certain to be reached if Canada
once again becomes a strong advocate
Of reciprocity treaty.
Is Against Cuban Reciprocity Bill.
"The Cuban reciprocity bill will
probably be passed by the senate on
Dec. Is, the date which they have set
for it. The BILL as passed by the house,
contains all the provisions of the Cuban
treaty negotiated by the president and
ratified by the senate, so no difficulty
in the upper house is anticipated in
passing the bill
81 took a stand against the bill and
was the only Minnesota man to vote
against it, because 1 believe the meas
ure is cruel blow to one Of the most
promising agricultural industries of
this country is, the establishment
of beet sugar production wherever
practicable and profitable. I make no
plea for the factories already in eX-
iSfPnna iS 70
because it insures a high price for
their product for five years and at the
same time prevents the establishment
of new enterprises which might COM
pete and reduce their profits.
1.-THE agricultural department reports
that there are twenty-one states in the
United States which can cultivate beet
sugar. There would be needed many
millions Of capital and there would be

BOARD SUDDENLY
CHANGES ITS MIND
Decides To Build a Concrete In
stead of q Steel Bridge Over
PhaIen Creek.

After an hour S: session behind locked
doors yesterday afternoon the board OF
county commissioners announced that
the plan for constructing steel bridge
across Phalen creek, on the Bald Eagle
road, had been abandoned in favor Of
a concrete bridge.
The county has twice advertised for
bids for the construction of steel
bridge at this point, and the contract
for the work2was to have been awarded
at a special meeting of the board to be
held tomorrow afternoon.
The sudden determination Of the
board to change from steel to con-
crete bridge created considerable sur
prise when made known after the eX-
ecutive session yesterday, and the I'M
looked-for action was the cause for
much criticism on the part of the con-
tractors who have twice bid on the
work.
Charges We're openly made, after the
action Of the board became known, that
the change was made for no other pur-
pose than to take the contract from
Minneapolis firm, which had made the
lowest bid for the steel bridge.
Park Board Caused Change.
Members of the board explain the
sudden change Of mind by putting the
responsibility up to the park board,
some of the members of which were
present at the executive session yes
terday AFTERNOON.
Phalen creek, over which the con-
temp1ated bridge is to be built, con-
meets Jarvis lake with Lake Phalen,
and it has long been one of the pet
schemes of the park board to dredge
this creek and make 1T sufficiently
large to carry enough water to float
gondolas and other small craft, which
could ply between the two lakes.
The park sboard is said to have ia
vored a concrete bridge with an arch
of masonry, for the reason that it would
be more picturesque" than an ordi-
nary steel bridge and would help to
beautify the contemplated navigable
water source between the two lakes.
Concrete. Would Be More Durable.
The commissioners declare that the
durable than a steel bridge, and give
this as their reason for favoring the
change.
Although the replacing Of the old
bridge has long been contemplated by
the county board, concrete had not
been considered in any of the proposed
plans before the secret meeting of the
board yesterday.
Some weeks ago bids were invited
for the steel structure, but when open
ed a week ago last Monday the award
ing of the contract was postponed be-
cause st. Paul firm had not noticed
the advertisements and came before
the commissioners upon the day that
the bids of other contractors were
opened and asked to be given an OPP
portunity to bid.
In compliance with the request Of
this firm, all of the first bids were re-
jected and new bids asked for. When
these bids were opened last Monday it
was found that Johnson & Co., a firm
Of Minneapolis contractors, were the
lowest bidders, and 1t was expected
that the contract would be awarded to
this firm at the special meeting to-
morrow
Instead of awarding this contract to-
morrow the board will postpone action
on the matter until the plans for con-
crete structure can be more fully In
vestigated.

CITY GETS $4,000
PREMIUM ON BONDS
Yesterday Banked $4,000 on Last
Loan Floated.

st. Paul city finances were sweIled to
the amount of $211,000 yesterday, that
sum representing the sale Of improve
ment bonds made by the city finance
committee some weeks ago.
The bonds were yesterday signed by
Mayor Smith and City Comptroller
Betz, and Immediately on the compile
ton Of the job, they were turned over
to the Merchants National bank and a
check for $211,0 given in return.
The $1,000 represents the premium
and accrued interest and Is considered
one of the best bargains in a bond sale
transaction made by the city in some
years.
The money will now be placed to the
credit of the several funds originally
specified in the ordinance authorizing
the issue.

COMES TOO SOON
AFTER THANKSGIVING
Councilmen May Postpone Gross. Town
Car Line Route Inspection.

Tomorrow afternoon was the date
selected some weeks ago for the mem
bers Of the council to make an investi-
cation Of the locality best suited to the
requirements Of the proposed new
cross-town car line, but there Is pos
sibility that the trip may be post
poned.
The fact that 1t is the day after
Thanksgiving makes it unsuitable for
some Of the members. and the trip
may be called off in favor of some later
date.
If the trip is made the members will
visit the Fifth ward and investigate
thoroughly the several streets that
have been mentioned as locations for
the new line. The Randolph car line
controversy will be taken UP and other
localities where extensions of car lines
have been asked for will also be Wis
tied.

be paid by the company, although an

Ritter assigned his wages and the
company refused to pay the money to
him. 1t was later shown that Strauch
had no legal claim on the wages, for
the reason that his rates of interest
were usurious and the money was or
dered paid to Ritter.

STREET CAR COLLIDES
WITH FIRE ENGINE
Shaft of Engine Is Broken, but No One
Is Injured.

While on the way to the fire at
Smith & FarewelPs store yesterday
evening Fire Engine No. IL was struck
by an interurban car at the corner Of
Fifth and Robert streets. The engine
was running up Robert street, and be-
fore the car could be stopped a col
lision occurred.
The horses were nearly thrown to
the ground and the middle shaft was
broken. The passengers in the car
were pared, but no one was injured.
The driver retained his seat on the en-
CINE and was able to get his team to
the fire
