treaty between Germany and Russia
was signed today by Count Won Buelow,

nounces the intention of introducing
higher duties on goods imported by
land than on those imported by sea.
Germany agrees that all barley inn
ported from Russia shall be considered
as cattle feed and will impose upon
such barley a duty of 2 marks, instead
of marks, as already provided in the
case of barley imported for brewing
purposes.

Russia, including chemicals. Finally,

has received assurances that conces-
sions will be made in the matter of

WOULD SOAK AUTOS
Commissioners Pottgieser De-
cIares Machines a Luxury

County Commissioner Pottgieser has
a plan for raising the assessed valua-
ton of personal property in Ramsey
county which he will ask the board of
equalization to adopt. He wants to
assess automobiles upon the basis of
higher valuation. During the past
week the board of equalization has
heard protests from a number of auto
owners, but instead, of lowering the
assessment Mr.. Pottgieser thinks it
should be, raised. Autos are especially
obnoxious to Mr.. Pottgieser, and he in
sists that they are a luxury that should
be well paid for.
'They are uncomfortable and danger
ous," declared Mr.. Pottgieser. only
the rich can afford them and they
should be compelled to pay a good tax
upon them"
Mr.. Pottgieser has announced that he
will attempt to secure a general raise
in the assessed valuation of autos at
an early meeting of the board of equal
ization, of which body Mr.. Pottgieser is
a member. The automobiles in the city
have sbeen assessed by Assessor Con-
ley at about the. same proportion of
their actual value as is all personal
property. s-s

COMMISSION FACES
PRINCIPLE OF UNIONS
Strike Requires Decision That Will Es
tabIish Precedent

= ~
$ WASHINGTON, D. c., July 2S.-The
civil service commission has decided
that Taylor, the non-union negro brick
layer, ON account of whose employ
ment the other ,bricklayers at the
Washington barracks buildings went
nor his pay during tfe-three days that
elapsed between the day his name
should have been dropped from tho
eligible list and the day he again reg
istered.
The July register contains the names
of fifty bricklayers, mostly union men
and when the strike was declared and
their names were certified, they refused
to take the places of the strikers. In
making up the August register the
commission must decide whether this
refusal to work with a non-union man
is sufficient cause to strike their names
from the eligible list.

IN A BAKERY SHOP
st. Paul company's Plant Is Damaged
to Extent of $1,000

The bakery of the st. Paul Bread
company, 55S View street, was threat
ened with destruction by a fierce fire
which broke out at IL o'clock last
night. The flames, fed by the dust
and woodwork in the interior of the
building, spread with great rapidity,
and were only checked by the fire de-
partment after nearly an hours hard
work. A special call after a still alarm
sent extra apparatus to the fire, which
for a time had a serious aspect.
The fire started on top of an oven
and spread to storeroom above. The
rear of the building was badly burned,
and the bake ovens were damaged A
stock of flour and bread was damaged
by smoke and water. The total loss is
estimated at $4,000. The ST. Paul

DENIES HE DELAYED
TIE ORDINANCE
City Clerk Redington Disposes
of Charge That He Blocked
Council Measure

City Clerk George T. Redington re-
sents the attack made upon him in an
evening paper yesterday, when an ar
ticle was printed charging him with
holding UP measures passed by the
council and in this manner interfering
with or delaying their passage. Mr..
Redington says there is no foundation
for the story that such a practice is
followed in his Office. and declares that
a satisfactory explanation can be made
of any such instance.
1t was charged in the article that
Mr.. Redington had held up an amend
ment to the building ordinance intro
duced in the council last month by
Aid. Hackney, and it was further stat
ed that the attention of the charter
commission was to be called to the
alleged practice with a view of secur-
ing some remedy.
The Hackney measure prohibited
the erection of high board fences with

been introduced for the purpose of

ment association that intended locating

planned VIII. the Hackney measure had
not been acted upon.
1t was stated by Mr.. Redington that
the Hackney measure went to Mayor
Smith within day or two after its
passage, with the other business from
the same meeting, but before it was
acted upon by the mayor Assembly,
man Haas requested that it be held I'M
til he should have time to farther in
vestigate its merits. Mayor Smith in
formed Assemblyman Haas that it
would be impossible for him to with
hold the measure. as the law provides
that the mayor must either sign or
veto any measure sent to him within
five days after it reaches him, and in
the event of his failure to do so the
measures becomes law without his
signature.
Mayor Sent Measure Back
To avoid this and to give Assembly

it, Mayor Smith sent the measure back
