MORE ABOUT THE
 BALDWIN STREET LINE

At the meeting of the aldermen last night MT Bergen inquired if anything had been done regarding the compile ton of the Baldwin street trolley. The chairman asid that according to the opinion of MT Kellogg, which had been mailed to the company, the city after the fifteenth of the present month can compel them to complete the line or tear up as much of it as they have laid and are now operating and restore the street to the condition they found it. MT Sewell said yesterday that the com- pany will take hold of that project as soon as it gets through with the North Willow street turnout. The work will be done provided the company feels that the aldermen mean business.

FIRED THE CHEROOT.
Sheriff Rigney Obeyed Orders and the
 Cigar Went Into the Alley.

Chairman Blakeslee of the board or aldermen and City Clerk Nettleton don't speak any more as they pass by. The coolness grew out of an incident that occurred at the session of the al- dermen held last night when the chair man turned his nose towards the cell ing, then cast his eye in the direction of the clerks desk picked up some thing between his thumb and fore finger, and passed it over to Sherln Rigney with a request to throw it into the street The clerk was full of busl- ness at the time and didn't mind what was going on, but when the meeting adjourned and he turned to have a whif out of his cigar and failed to find it, he inquired what had happened and was informed that if he wanted the butt he would have to search for it some place else. This was adding insult to injury and the clerk knew it, for it was no butt at all, but almost whole cigar, and good one at that. still Job himself could not have shown more patience were he the victim, and as a result few noticed the incident, and probably the matter would have stopped there had it not got noised around that Blakeslee took this plan Of paying an election bet. This was add ing fuel to the fire and now a three cornered fight is on. Both Blakeslee and Rigney indignantly deny the inn putation with reference to the wager and the settlement of it in this way, but the evidence on the other side is not bad, for it appears the sheriff was seen smoking a cigar in the lobby that looked for all the world like the clerks, but he says it was one he bought and insists that he carried out the instructions of the chair to put the other outside the building.

WENT VERY WIDE
 OF THE MARK

Some of the things said and taken Ill good faith at the meeting of the alder men Monday night furnish fair idea of how easy it is to deceive lot of well meaning men. The unexpended revenue which was mentioned as an offset for the special appropriation of $4,5O0 is made up of two outstanding bills against the trolley company. One of the members thought it an unusual proceeding to count as an asset money not yet turned into the city. In reply to this it was said that if the Outstdnd- ing accounts referred to could not be collected the special appropriation would not be made. This appeared to satisfy everybody and the vote was passed unanimously. The explanation was clever, but it was long ways from the truth. The city is in posi- ton to borrow the money to-day, and whether the trolley company settles in week or year has nothing to do with the case. There was nothing wrong iu the recommendation. nor ill the action taken on it, but the explaAa- ton was very wide of the mark.

EILEEN OCE.
New Talent Added to The Cast of
 Characters for This Production.

It will no doubt be pleasing to the other members of the cast of charac- ters, to the members of the Second di- vision, A. O. H.. and to the public in general to know that the cast of char acters as originally arranged has been modified somewhat and some new tai ent added which will now make the success of the production an assured certainty. William Shannahan, one of the popular teachers Of the city, will, assume role in the play, and that means the character he represents will be handled with great success. Thom, as A. Maher, one of Waterbury's pop ular amateurs, will assume another role, and it will be one ill which he will make a new name for himself. All the other parts will be in capable hands, and each lady and gentleman is working night and day perfectins herself and himself in their respective parts. Thursday night the Second di. vision, A. 0. H., will hold a meeting and every member i'll the order is asked to attend because matters dl- rectly connected with this production and with the division itself will be dis cussed. This is no dream. either, and if the members attend on that evening they may hear of something that will place them on their dignity. The mem- bers Of the cast of characters are working hard and diligently to make the play a dramatic success, and 1t will be LID to the members of the order to see that City hall is filled both af' ternoon and evening on Thanksgiving day. The play is good one and VIII be given better presentation than any Irish drama ever received i'll tnls city

CANvASSINC THE VOTE.
President Congressmens, Senators,
 Nov. 30; State Officers, Dec. I9.

Under the provisions of law passed in 1895, section 1,6S6 of the revised statutes, the state board of canvassers. composed of the secretary, treasurer and comptroller, are required to make the canvass of votes for state officers during the month of December, bur the statute provides that the canvass shall not be completed until the third Monday of the month. Until 1895 the law required the canvass to be made in November, and it was customary for the canvassers to meet at Hartford about two weeks after the election and revise the returns as entered in the books and computed by the clerk of the office of the secretary of state. The change in the date of canvass from November to December, made in 1895, was by an act entitled "An Act to Se- cure Correct Returns by Moderators of Electors Meetings" and this was prompted by the memorable election controversy of 1900. It was evident that in the event of contested cleo ton, the requirement. that the votes be canvassed within three weeks follow ing an election did not afford sufficient time for the courts to investigate and pass upon any disputed count. The present statute also provides that where any returns have been passed upon by the courts, the state canvas sers shall be governed by such action. The courts are required to give a prompt hearing on any disputed count and file it's finding with the secretary of state before December 1. If an ap- peal is taken to the supreme court, q finding from that body must be. filed by the third Monday of December.
 Complaints of errors in the count of votes for presidential electors and con- gressmen take a somewhat different course. They are not brought to the superior court, but to a judge of the supreme court and decision must be given by the Monday before the last Wednesday of November.
 The canvass of votes for presidential electors and members of congress must be made by the state board of canvas sers on the last Wednesday of Noyem Der, 30th inst. The canvass for state senators and judges of probate are re- quired to be canvassed by the state canvassers 's during the month in which they are cast" They will be canvassed on November 30, when the canvass for presidential electors and coneressmen is made.
 Returns of the vote ill each town are required to be made ill triplicate; one copy to be filed with the town clerk: the second to be mailed within two days after the election to the sec retary of state, and the third copy to be mailed to the secretary in not less than five nor later than ten days after the election. The original returns have been received by the secretary of state from all, excepting one town, but the final returns are not expected until the latter part of this week. Nothing has yet been done toward tabulating

FOUR PLEADED GUILTY.
Five Offenders Sentenced in Federal
Court at Sioux Falls.

In the United States court at Sioux

of guilty. Mackey was sentenced to a
term of one year in the Sioux Fails pen
itentiary and fined 500.
Samuel Foster pleaded guilty to an in
dictment charging him with introducing
liquor into the Sisseton reservation and
was sentenced to term of one year in
the Sioux Falls penitentiary and fined
500.
Thomas Subponca, a Sisseton Indian,
pleaded guilty to an indictment charging
him with selling liquor to his brethren,
and as he is an old offender he was SEN
fenced to Imprisonment in the Sioux Falls
penitentiary for period of two years
and fined $500.
Leo Bruguier pleaded guilty to an in
dictment charging him with horse steal
ing on that portion of the Standing Rock

FEARS BIG STRIKE.
Chicago Faces Another Serious
Labor War.


After negotiation at Chicago extending
over several weeks, the Truck Drivers
Union and the Chicago Team Owners
Association are no nearer an agreement
than at the beginning. Chicago is men
aced by the prospect OF strike that will
has taken place since the disturbance of
1894
The workers have asked an increase of
wages amounting to about 10 per cent,
making their pay range from S12 to SIS
week. They also demand a twelve
hour day. They now work twelve and 4
half hours
The employers, 9S per cent of whom
are represented by the owners organiza-
ton, have refused to make any conces-
sions and offer only to renew the old
agreement.
Merchants and shippers in almost ev-
cry line, through their different organi-
cations, have promised support to the
team owners IL il becomes necessary to
endure strike. They promised to stand
"at'i'Nt NOhip'diht u VI any iNhShhs
Team owners cannot stand higher
wages declared Secretary Cavanaugh,
of the owners association. Last May
and in May, 1902 we granted the drivers
higher wages and shorter hours. Since
then we have not been able to increase
the carriage charges. This has greatly
increased our expenses without increas-
ing our income. The bottom has dropped
out OF the teaming business. From 10 TO
100 idle Transfers may be seen around
any of the big barns each morning look
ing for work. We hope that there will
not be strike, but we cannot pay high
err wages
Truck drivers will meet Sunday to vote
on the proposal to renew the old agree
ment. Twice this has been voted down.
There is every indication that the offer
Of the employers viii be rejected. The
agreement expires May l, and il some
understanding is not reached shortly it is
feared that 11,G00 truck drivers will be
ordered on strike.
Such walkout would be more far
reaching i'm its effect than any recent
strike in Illinois. Every business and
almost every family would be annoyed

MURDERER LOSES INSURANCE
Cannot Become Beneficiary OF Policy
ON Wife's Life.

In the case of the supreme lodge,
Knights and Lanes of Honor, the ILL
nois state supreme court entered deci-
sion at Springfield to the effect that a
husband cannot become tic beneficiary
of life insurance in his favor carried on
the life of his wife, if he has murdered
her.
The case is one appealed from the st.
Clair County circuit court. The Knights
and Ladies' OF Honor contested the pay
ment of a $1,000 life insurance policy in
favor of Mrs. Elizabeth Menkhausen on
the ground that her husband. Gustave
Menkhausen had been convicted of her
murder Menkhausen is now serving a
life sentence in Joliet. The supreme court
holds that Menkhausen's children are en-
titled 10 the insurance.

WEEKS HAPPENINGS
NEWS OF THE WEEK IN A CON-
DENSED FORM.
Fine and Jail Sentence Imposed on
M. f. Yegge at Huron for Practic-
ing OphthaImoiogy in State with a
Chicago Diploma.

A Huron special says: NJ. +. iegge,
who for several months past mas been
practicing opthalmology here under a d.
ploma issued by a Chicago institution,
following a brief term there, was SEN
fenced in circuit court by Judge WHIT
ing to pay fine of $50 and to serve nj
teen days in the county Jail for violation
of the state law regulating the practice
Of medicine.
The court was severe in its lecture TO
Mr.. Yegge before pronouncing sentence,
and also took occasion to severely cr-ti-
else the institution that gave him oil"
ploma after term covering only about
one month.
Yegges manner of advertising was de-
clared misleading and on that account
the court came down on him heavily. The
case will likely be taken to the supreme
court,
The action in the circuit court was
brought by the state board of medical
examiners, who propose to bring similar
actions against other irresponsible par
ties, and the Chicago institution may
come in for special attention.
