BISHOPS SURETIES
RETIRE FROM BOND
Former Proprietor of Bijou Hotel Is
Arrested and Capped Into Jail.

Yesterday morning, when Judge
Kelly called for trial the case of the
state against Franklin Bishop, the
former proprietor Of the Bijou hotel,
who is under indictment for running
an asslgnation house, there was no re-
sponse, neither the defendant nor his
counsel being in court.
There are two indictments against
Bishop, his bond having been placed at
$1,000 in each case. When he failed to
appear in court yesterday, it was ru-
mered that he had left the city, and
his bOndsmen, hearing of the matter
became active in their efforts to locate
the man. The sureties are NJ. l..
F1nkleStein and Alexander Silver
FInklestein reached the court house
at noon and announced his intention of
Withdrawing from the bond, and an
officer was sent out to locate Bishop.
He was found by Deputy Sheriff
George KrOeger at 304 Exchange street,
where he has been living since closing
his hotel. Bishop was brought into
court in the afternoon, and being un-
able to furnish a new bond was locked
in the county Jail. His case will be
called this morning, at which time
Bishops attorneys will ask for a con-
tinuance. Finklestein and Silver were
on both bonds, but it is understood
they were protected from any loss on
the first bond by a cash deposit made
with them by Bishop. However, there
was no such protection on the second
bond.
1t was said that Bishop had not been
seen in the city since last Friday, and
the bondsmen appeared much relieved
when their man was brought into court
during the afternoon.
Bishop is man probably sixty years
old, with white hair and beard. He has
been arrested several times before. Af-
ter the second indictment was found
against him he closed his hotel and
took up his residence on Exchange
street, where he was arrested.

OWL CARS ARE
PUT TO SLEEP
Aldermen Refer Ordinance
and Other Street Railway
Measures to Committee.

Little III the line of street car leg
1slation got by the board of aldermen
last night The much talked of "owl
car measure found a snug sleeping
place in the shape of reference to the
committee on streets, and the ordi-
nance calling for a five and ten min
ute service on the Grand and Lafayette
street car lines was practically killed.
In anticipation of fight over the
"oWl car" ordinance quite a number
or advocates were in attendance, but
they were doomed to disappointment.
On Aid. DObner's motion the measure
was sent to the committee. the vote
to refer being as prompt and decisive
as the motion. Not a word of comment
was uttered.
While reference to a committee Of
any measure generally means defeat
If the majority so desire, the members
of the board say they intend to give all
who desire it hearing, and the Senti-
ment displayed will influence their fu-
ture action. The measure will, in all
probability, never see the light of day,
but 1t viii prove an effective club in
forcing reforms that some of the mem
bers are now trying to secure. This
some of the members admit and even
say they intend using it as such.
One of the reforms will be the Sc
curing of big cars for the Mississippi
and West st. Paul line and a better
schedule thereon, and also on the Ham
line and Jackson line.
Not a little disappointment was oc-
casioned over the failure of the fiv+.
and ten-minute schedule for the Grand
and Lafayette lines. The ordinance
was first sent to the committee on
streets and then reconsidered, but the
suspension of the rules in order that
passage might be given was blocked
by the votes of President Huber and
! Aid. Dobner and Moriarty. The argu-
| ment made, was that the company is
maintaining such schedule and the
ordinance was not necessary.
Up to a week ago most any kind Of
schedule prevailed on these lines
but when the assembly backed up its
demand by the passage of the Ordi-
nance the company Immediately got
busy and the cars were kept running
on the dot. It is now said that as soon
as the company realizes that the or
dinance has received it's death warrant
the old service will be resumed.
Supt. Burdick, of the street railway.
attended the meeting.

HIS LIFE CRUSHED OUT
BETWEEN TO CARS
Gustave MaImquist, Street Railway
Workman Meets Shocking Death.

Gustave MalmQuist, a workman en-
ployed by the street railway company,
was killed yesterday while in the per-
fOrmance of duty at the corner Of Third
street and Maria avenue.
Work was to be done at this point
and the car of which Malmquist was
foreman was ordered there to do 1t.
With the work car was a trailer for the
men, and during the performance of
the work the cars were unCoupled. The
work completed, the men were about
to couple them and proceed on their
way. .----
The motor car was run down near
the trailer and MalmQuist stepped be-
tween the two to couple them, and in
some accountable manner, for no one
saw the accident, he was caught be-
tween the coupling bumpers and lit
orally smashed. The mOtOrman heard
the agonized Shrek of the injured man
and reversed the car. AS he did so
Malmquist fell to the ground.
DR.. Fullerton's Office was near by
and his fellow workmen carried him
thither and the Bethesda ambulance
was summoned.
Before the hospital was reached the
man was dead.
Malmquist was forty years of age
and lived at TIA Rose street. A>Wife
and two children survive him.

MISSING MAN is
DECLARED DEAD
Mrs. Blumanauer Awarded
Judgment on Life Policy
Issued HerHusbard.

John II. Blumanauer, formerly Sec
retary OF the American Railway union
and one of the able lieutenants of EI-
gene V. Debs during the big railroad
strike of 1894 who disappeared from
Minneapolis in 1895, has been declared
dead by jury in Judge Orr's court,
and his wife, who brought suit against
the Royal ArCanum to recover s., 900 on
a policy held by Blumanauer, was yes
terday given a verdict for the full
amount
Blumanauer lived in Minneapolis
and was prominent IN railroad circles.
During the big railroad strike he had
charge of the strike throughout the
West, Debs> looking after the Eastern
end of it. 1t developed during the trial
that Blumanauer had robbed his wife
of $1,000 and then deserted her.
During the year 1895 he lived above
his income, and in August was arrested
for having issued checks on a bank in
which he had no funds. His arrest oc-
CURED on Saturday night, and it re-
quired $3.50 to settle the matter and
get him out of jail. This amount his
wife borrowed from her father, ex-
pecting to return the amount the fol-
lowing, day, when she would have an
opportunity to draw on her bank ac-
count.
The following day, when she went to
the bank to secure the money she
learned that the 81, 200 had been drawn
by her husband by the manipulation
of an order which she had given him
for $50. When the husband was repri-
manded, he exhibited a revolver and
threatened to kill himself, and two
nights later disappeared.
The law presumes that a man is dead
who has been missing seven years.
The defense claimed there was not
sufficient evidence to show that the
man was dead. a letter having been re-
ceived from him after his departure
from Minneapolis. The jury was out
but five minutes.

to headquarters in this city from a trip
of inspection to the three most West

Gen. Kobbe said yesterday chat the

see how they live in the winter. I
found the posts most satisfactory in

SELL SOFT COAL
BY The HUNDRED
Local Companies Relieve
Poor Man Who Has
the Price.

Hard coal at figures of which the
millionaire only can dream; soft coal
at 80 cents a hundred pounds; the
thermometer at Winnipeg 16 degrees
below zero, the thermometer at Medi-
cine Hat so low as to be absolutely
unrecognizable by decent people.
These were the conditions which
confronted the people of st. Paul yes
terday.
The north wind came blowing down
from Assinaboine and other impossible
places in the Northwest yesterday aft
ernoon. 1t was a foretaste of what
was coming.
The rich man buttoned his fur coat
closely about his well nourished frame
and went home shivering in anticipa-
tIon of the coming cold wave. His fur
mace fire was blazing brightly, camel
coal lit up his CRATES.
Coal is getting short in the house."
said the butler
''All right" was the reply. Wen
have to pay a high price for it, but the
coal dealers will have to give it to US.
Put some more coal in the CRATE"
John Smith had been cutting ice all
day on the Mississippi river near the
high bridge. He is paid $3.50 a day.
He walked home to save car fare.
John" said his wife, as he kissed
the children when he entered the
house, 1--WE are almost out of coal If
l cook supper we won't have enough
to heat the house tonight. The fires
are all out now and the house is coId.'
John declared they would eat a cold
supper, light the fire later, enjoy a
good sleep and he would try and get
coal today with the little money he
had left from his weeks salary.
This is the question to be solved to-
day by millionaire and poor man-hbw
to get coal. The millionaire can prob
ably get it because, Notwithstanding
the assertion in the Bible about the
camel and the needles eye, and the
rich man and the kingdom Of heaven,
the millionaire has no such handicap
for himself on earth.
But the coal companies came to the
relief of the poor yesterday. It was
soft coal, to be sure, but it had quail
ties of heat in 1t. They sold coal at
80 cents a hundred in less than 500
pound lots. The companies which en-
tered into this agreement have yards
at the following places:
Sycamore and Gaultier streets.
Western and Como avenues.
Minnehaha and Arundel streets.
Foot of Eagle street.
Dale and Randolph.
Fourth and Canal.
Fifth and KittSon.
Westminster street bridge.
Arkwright street.
Earl and Seventh.
John Smith can go to one of these
places today, put down his 80 cents
and get a basket of coal containing 100
pounds of the fuel. But he will have
to carry it home himself. The COM
panies won't deliver it.
The Pioneer Fuel company declared
yesterday it could get no more coal
and that conditions were growing
worse The Youghiogheny & Lehigh,
the Pioneer and the Ohio Fuel COM
panies yesterday took orders for gas
