MAYsPLACE D. r. MOVES
ON BOARD OF REGENTS
Rumor Says He May Be Appointed
When Vacancy Occurs.

S .Rumors have been circulated in pe-
litical circles at the state capitol an
nouneing D. r. Noyes as a prospective
member of the board of regents of the
state university Except for the fact
that there is no Vacancy in that body
or any immediate indication that there
will be one, the report would be ac-
copied as reasonable.
The assumption that Mr.. Moves will
be appointed to this board appears,
when analysed, to be principally based
upon the belief that Dean Liggett will
resign from the board by reason of
criticism of his position in holding a
salaried position in the gift of the
board. Those who know Mr.. Liggett
best have no faith in this idea and
freely predict that he will serve his
full term
Gov Van SAINT said yesterday that as
far as he knew none of the members
intend to resign.
Except in case of resignation there
will be no vacancy on the board before
Jan. 1, when the terms of Theodore L.
Schurmeier and Judge Greenleaf Clark
will expire. 1t is not considered i'm
probable that at that time Mr.. Noyes
may be appointed to succeed one OF
the gentlemen named.

SAYS UNION men
SEIZED HIS TOOLS
William -KrechIer Prefers
Charges Against Strik-
ing Plumbers.

Forcible persuasion" to leave his
work, relieving him of his tools and at
tempting to hustle him out of ST. Paul
are the charges William Krechler, a
| nom union plumber, employed by Hur-
ley & Co., makes against Chris Meyers
and a party Of striking plumbers.
Failing to secure warrant on a
| criminal complaint, Krechler has in
| Stituted replevin proceedings to re-
cover his lost tools.
Krechler declares that while at work
| in a house at Dale street and Aurora
| avenue, six, union plumbers, headed by
| Meyers, put in an appearance and at
| tempted to persuade him to quit ana
leave the city. Finding he was proof
| against their arguments, krechler says
| the strikers introduced more forc1ble
! persuasion, seized him and his tools
! and conducted him to Federation nall.
The offer of free ticket to his home
| in New York having no influence on
| his determination to work in st. Paul,
he says he was released but the strik-
ers refused to give UP kit of tools
which had meanwhile disappeared
from his view.
He told his story to County Attorney
Kane, who found nothing in 1t upon
which to base criminal charge. Fail
ing to secure a warrant he sued out a
replevin, returnable today in Justice
Hoff's court.
Constable Gaines was given the writ
of replevin, but yesterday failed to find
! the missing tools.
The strikers were successful with
four other non-union men who arrived
from New York Wednesday. These
men left last night for New York at
| the expense of the union, and without
doing any work for the master plumb
ers, who paid their fares from the East.
The strikers say last nights depart
ures make a total of forty-six strike
breakers they have deported
