On the advance there was further IL

the market was steady at the decline

&C. Goodrich of the street railway
company is not in favor Of hiring foreign

then charging an admission fee. He sub
mitted a proposition to the park board
at last nights meeting favoring the hir-

ton of $1,000 is advised.
The resolution passed at the last meet

from each of the regular committees. The

HOME RULE ms. LAW
Certain St. Paul and Country Agents
Favor Cutting Away From
Western Board.
Opponents of Such a Step Say It
Would Mean Practically
Rigid Rates.

The movement among certain fire In
surance men Of st. Paul and other Min
nesota towns, looking toward cutting loose
from the western board, which establishes
rates for this state, apparently finds lit
tie support In this city. It Is proposed
to get, the legislature to pass a home
rule insurance law similar to that which
is said by the supporters of the movement
to have proved satisfactory in Missouri.
This would make Minnesota an 'anti-
compact state.
The agents, who object to the making
of rates under the rules of a board which
has it's headquarters in another state, say
that the present rate-makers frequently
juggle the schedule so that it is prac-
tically impossible for some companies to
do business in the state. Certain st. Paul
agents believe that a home-rule law would
result in advantage to the agents and in
a less unjust distribution of the rates of
insurance.
An insurance man of Minneapolis says
in substances: Rates under any law must
be made in the same way. They are
based on experience plus or minus local
conditions. Z A furniture factory rate is
based on the aggregate cost to companies
Of such risks plus the peculiar disadvan-
tages of the plant to be insured and mi
nus the credits allowed for certain fire
protection. The average local agent does
not know how to apply rules for, making
rates and local representatives Of the
board makes the application.
In Missouri, the state mentioned as be-
ing satisfied with its law, the business
men are moving toward it's repeal. The
chief reason is that the working of such
a law makes rate making absolutely rigid
while in a state like Minnesota the max
| ing of rates is flexible. For instance, in
Minnesota an up-to-date manufacturing
concern which detaches it's different build
| ings, puts in a, sprinkler system and uses
other devices for preventing and extin-
gushing fire, gets certain credits against
the regular rate, thus reducing the cost
Of insurance, while in the anti-compac
state the statutes prevent such credits
So that the making of rates is absolutely
rigid. Thus, in states like Missouri, rates
are higher than where the rate is flexible

QUINN IS CAPTURED.
Man Wanted in Minneapolis Is Ar
rested in Illinois for Rob-
bling a Bank.
He Is Believed to Have Had a Hand
in "second-story" Work
Here.

Eddie Quinn, the notorious bank
robber, who, according to circular is
sued early in December by the Mime
apclis police department, is wanted in
this city for some important seconds story
work in October, lis under arrest in
Quincy, III. Quinn is charged with rob-
bling the First National bank at Abing-
don, ILL.,, and will be tried for that charge
before he, can be brought to Minneapolis.
He is also wanted at Rochester, N. Y,
where he jumped a cash bail Of $1,000
while he was being held on a charge Of
robbery. 80
Quinn:s arrest is important. He Is con-
sidered one of the most dangerous GRIM
inals i'm the country. His rogues' gall
lery record says that he was at one time
a partner of the notorious Adam Worth.
and in company with Worth did clever
| work in various parts of this country and
in Europe. Quinn is said to have left the
Worth gang about fourteen years ago
to organize gang of his own In New
York city. At La Porte Ind, they sue
ceeded in raiding a jewelry store and
got about $1,000 worth of diamonds. They
| were arrested and Quinn served seven
years. ~ ~
| While in prison Quinn decided to quit
the life of criminal, and, as soon as he
was released, went to Chicago where he
| was unknown, and found a place with
the bookmakers. A little later he engaged
in the printing business and was success
full. His partner, however, learned of his
past and the partnership was dissolved.
i About a year ago Quinn was in Roches-
| ter, N. Y, and while standing in bank
| one day, saw a woman draw a. large sun
Of money in bills. Stepping up to her
side he dropped a dollar bill on the floor
and then called her attention to the
money on the floor. AS the woman
stopped to pick up the bill he quickly
weeded out a large sum from the roll she
had in her hand and fed. He was cap.
