LOOKING FOR HIS GEMS
Man Released From Asylum Gives
Mrs. MCLAUGHLIN a Scare.

John Swanstrom, released from the in
sane asylum few weeks ago, gave Mrs.
Mclaughlin, wife Of Peter Mclaughlin Of
the central police, a bad scare Wednesday.
Swanstrom was arrested last fall by
Officer Mclaughlin and Lieutenant
Riviere, who found him armed with two
revolvers in the office Of DR.. Cole, whom
he threatened to shoot. He was sent to
ST. Peter. When he returned he called
at the probate court for the revolvers,
but was told that the officers who arrested
him had them He then went to the Nc
Laughlin home. When Mrs. Mclaughlin
opened the door the man stepped into the
room without speaking. His eyes had a
wild look and his manner greatly fright
ened her.
| ."Where's Pete?' he asked.
HE is upstairs, 2 replied Mrs. McLaugh-
lin, and she stepped into the hallway.
| Swanstrom followed her.
Where are my guns 2" he asked Nc
|=Laughlin when he appeared While he
Ispoke, he held. his hand in his pocket as
/ tho about to draw a weapon.
/ Mclaughlin persuaded him to leave by
promising to meet him at the probate
court to- day.

FIERCE CITY DADS
Dems Threaten to Defeat Garbage
Crematory Removal at
Any Cost.
The Republicans Are Not Likely to
Press the Matter at
Present.

So many Of the democratic aldermen
are in furious mood over the garbage
crematory removal, that the republicans
may conclude that it is wiser to post
pone action this evening until their
democratic brethren cool down. There is
no hurry for it will not be advisable to
move before next winter anyway.
At present some of the first warders are
so excited that they won't listen to any
thing. Alderman Gerber declares that
no matter what the council and the
health department may do, the crema-
tory will never; be, allowed to remain on
Halls island.
Should the proposition be brought up at
the couhcir meeting this evening, there
will be torrid times. The democrats have
had their little caucus and have mapped
out a line Of campaign which they are
confident will delay final action for some
time to come In spite Of the fact that they
muster but nine votes to the republican
seventeen.
Among the various matters to come be-
fore the council is the application Of Ed
ward Parks for a liquor license at 1903
Nicollet avenue. His license was revoked
by Acting Mayor D. P. Jones and Chief
of Police Conroy. The council committee
on licenses has voted against Parks.
Bond Sale Stands.
| City Attorney Frank Healy says the
DondS recently issued ny the city cOuncll
are already sold and anything that the
aldermen may do hereafter can in no wise
| invalidate the sale. The council formally
| empowered the committee on ways and
| means to dispose Of the bonds and acting
on instructions the committee sold them
| While it has been customary to- confirm
| the action of the committee, such a pro-
| ceeding Is unnecessary. This effectually
disposes of the threat of the opponents
of the garbage crenatory removal scheme
to block the bond sale until they obtain
concessions regarding the crematory re-
| moval. .... g. -
