BY the narrow margin of sixteen
votes the Minneapolis Chamber of
Commerce yesterday defeated the prop
osition to make No. northern wheat
deliverable on contracts at a Scent
differential The proposition before
the chamber was that Wfere-i it was i'm
possible to deliver No. northern, the
contract grade, No. wheat to an
amount not to exceed SO per cent of
the amount called for might be deliver
ed at a reduction OF s cents In price.
The contest was one between the
millers and the elevator men. The
millers opposed the amendment to the
rules on the ground that it would COM
pei them to take an inferior grade of
wheat when they purchased higher
grade and needed to maintain the
standard of their product. The 5-cent
differential did not appeal to them,- for
they said they could not make -four out
of nickels-they needed first-class
wheat.
The elevator men asserted its was
necessary for the rules to be amend
ed for without an amendment it would
be impossible for them to hedge with
any degree of security.
No northern wheat is not plentiful
and the millers who have purchased it
for future delivery are determined that
they receive what they purchased.

NEWS OF THE CITY
WOMAN TELLS NEED
Of RESCUE HOME
Salvation Army Leader Ex.
plains Need of Institution
In Twin Cities

=
The rescue work of the Salvation
Army was the subject of an address
made last night at the Commercial
club parlors before hundred women
and several men by Mrs. Col. E. J.
Higgins, the armyss national secretary
of rescue and slum work.
The object of Mrs. Higgins speech
was to direct attention to the need OF
1 enlarged accommodations for rescue
work by the army in st. Paul and Min
| neapolis. Hints were thrown out by
Mrs. Higgins and by Rev. David Nor
gan, another speaker. concerning a
| project for erecting in the Midway dis
| trict a rescue home, to be conducted
| by sa1vationists, that will accommo-
date 100 inmates.
After Ensign Purcell Storey, playing
| a harp guitar, had sung typical Sal
vation Army song, Mr. Morgan spoke
+ of the inherent difficulties of rescue
work. When he opened his Bethel
hotel five erring girls came to him. He
| didn't know what to do with them. 1t
would have been equally distressing to
| take them in or to send them away.
He then went East, under instructions
| from the women of the Bethel board.
Later he was called as far as London
| by his pastoral duties. In London, at
| last, he found a solution for the prob
lem that had vexed him. Down in the
Whitechapel district the rescue home
of the Salvation Army had convinced
him that rescue work under army
auspices ''is the most practical, most
economical most loving"
Mrs. Higgins displayed three power
full factors of the eloquent-distinct
enunciation, a sweet, strong voice, a
| sincere personality. She outlined the
growth of the Salvation Army, which
has now 7,405 corps and 1910 officers
| in forty nine countries.
"The need of rescue work had early
| forced itself upon the army.
Consider" said Mrs. Higgins, that
| in America alone there are 100000
| erring women whose average term of
life, after their fall, is not more than
five years-a prodigious army of the
| wretched, whose ranks are recruited
annually by $4,000 souls previously in
nocent"
The army, Mrs. Higgins told, now
| conducts 120 rescue homes, Of which
| 81 are in America; cares for 5000 girls
each year, of whom 2,034 were pro-
/ tected last year in the American
homes. The army officers consecrate
their lives to the work. They include
in their ranks school teachers, trained
nurses, stenographers and representa-
tives of other professions; and "are
thus competent to teach the girls how
| to make a reputable living after leav-
ing the homes" Close and loving rela-
tions are maintained with the un-
fortunates both in the homes and after
wards.
The little rescue home started by the
army six years ago on Jackson street
has cared for 442 girls and 1877 infants.
Only seven of the girls "have proved
totally unsatisfactory"
1--WE shall be gratifed," concluded
Mrs. Higgins, ''if we can obtain in the
Twin cities a larger opportunity for
our rescue work
The Saint Paul globe., 1904-10-12

Rev. e. S. Van Ness, of Winona
l-startled the Baptists at their annual
convention at Calvary church yester-
day morning when he declared that
with better preparation for the minis
try there would be longer pastorates.
He made an impassioned address in
opposition to the short cut route to the
ministry and asserted that the theo-
logical school turned out too many
preachers rather than good ones.
1t was better, in his mind, for a man
to study for fifty years than to be sent
out into the field with the simple quail
ifications of sincerity and religious
faith. He admitted that some men
rise without training In the church, but
they were exceptions rather than the
rule, and because Lincoln lowered
above his associates was no indication
that statesmen should be expected to
come from some out of the way col
lege. He believed the Baptist church
should have some central body to pass
upon the qualifications of candidates
for the ministry.
Following Mr.. Van Ness argument a
motion was made that a committee be
constituted for the purpose of provid-
ing for the appointment of board to
pass upon the qualifications of candi-
dates for the ministry, but it was laid
on the table.
Rev. G. F. Holt reported on the evan
listic work during the year, and Rev.
r. G.. Seymour, Of Philadelphia, COM
mended the plan which has been fol-
lowed in Minnesota of having the pas
tors of strong churches assist the men
in charge of the weaker ones Encour-
aging reports were made by several
missionaries, among them being Rev.
G. H. Gamble, of Minneapolis; Rev. E.
H. Rasmussen, of Kasson, and Rev. M.
FL. Critchett, of Sherburne.
Rev. F. l.. Anderson delivered a SER
mon on "Growth-the Minister'S Part"
The afternoon session was devoted
to the work of women in home and
foreign missions. Mrs w. S. Barrett
read the report on home missions, and
Mrs. F. B. Lathrop reported on the
work in the foreign field.
In the evening Rev. E. r. Pope, the
state superintendent of missions, re-
ported on the work in Minnesota, and
addresses were made by Rev A. J.
Hoag, of West Duluth; Rev. H. r. Nc
Kee, of Parkers Prairie, and Rev. H. A.
Sather, Of Minneapolis.

YOUNG GIRLS MUST

Care For city's Reck.
less Maids

Young girls who wander the streets
at. night are to be driven from the
thoroughfares of st. Paul and obliged
to stay in their homes unless good
and sufficient reason exists for their
being out. When the electric light
blinks and the "mashers" are abroad
in the land thirteen and fourteen-year
old girls will have to stop at home II
|the efforts of the authorities count for
anything.
The conditions in st. Paul were call
ed to the attention of Miss Alice S.
Millard, secretary of the Humane So
ciety, and it is possible that meet
ing of the organization will be called
in the immediate future to consider
means Of preventing the practical
vagrancy of young girls and to take
measures to forestaH such an occur
renee as the Chinese scandal in Min
neapolis.
1T is terrible" said Miss Miliard,
"and something should be done to save
the girls from their foolish ignorance.
Something should be done to prevent
the girls from getting into bad COM
pany. Just what these means should
be am not prepared to say and would
refer inquiries to the president of the
society.
Il hear that in other cities the law
against the 'masher' is so strictly en-
forced that a girl may walk on the
streets late at night If she has to-,
without fear of insult"

PASSES IT TO BOARD
CommandantOf Soldiers Home
Awaits Action on Pensions

The state soldiers home board will
meet at the home, Minnehaha park,
Thursday in quarterly meeting, and it
is expected that the board will take
up the question of Withholding the pen
sion money of inmates.
The first pay day under the opera
tion of the Lind law; which provides
that the inmates money must be paid
to the commandant of the home, to be
used by him for the pensioners bene-
fit or to be given to his family, is
scheduled for today, but it is under
stood that the payments will be with
held until the meeting of the board
Except in the cases of pensioners who
are VIGOROUSLY imprevident, it is be-
ieved that the board is inclined to put
a liberal construction on the new law.
Some objection is expected from this
class of inmates.
The board of trustees is due to make
final disposition of the election of a
surgeon at the home. DR.. Norred, the
present surgeon, was not reelected at
the annual meeting of the board, but
has been retained in the service for the
