an animal will bleed out if only one

Get MONEY JAN. Is
Cyclone Sufferers viii Receive
1t Directly on Budget

Comptroller Betz says that the cy-
clone sufferers who were allowed as
sistance by the city council will get
their money about Jan. Is.
AS all efforts to have the note signed
by some Of the city officials cashed has
been abandoned those allowed the total
of something more than $4,000 must
wait until money has been realized
from the tax budget of the coming
year.
It was impossible to induce all the
members of the city council to sign the
note guaranteeing the payment of the
note to the National German Ameri-
can bank, which had agreed to handle
the paper. Because some of the coun-
cilmen and other city officials declined
to sign the note, previous to the pas
sage Of the budget, the question of
raising money was postponed, and un-
less the officials should relent and put
their signatures on the note the sum
will not be secured until money can be
raised directly on the budget.
Unless something unusual should
happen we will have the money for the
cyclone sufferers by Jan. 49," said
Comptroller Betz. There is every rea-
son to believe that by that time we will
be able to care for them, paying the
full amount allowed"

CRIME TOSHOOT MAN
Fullerton Recommends Law to
Curb Careless Hunters

If the next legislature adopts the
advice of, S. F. Fullerton, executive
agent of the state game and fish COM
mission, it will make the shooting of
persons in the deer hunting season a
very serious offense.
The state game warden will recon-
ment that the killing of man while
hunting in the woods shall be treated
as manslaughter, just like the killing
of a person by the negligent handling
of poisonous drugs under the laws of
Minnesota. If Minnesota adopts his
suggestion it will follow Wisconsin's
lead in the direction of throwing some
safeguards about the people who go
into the woods in pursuit of deer.
ct shall recommend in my biennial
report to the governor and the legis-
lature," said Mr.. Fullerton yesterday,
'.that a law be enacted which will pro-
vide that the killing of man in the
woods by careless hunter shall be
nanslaughter This seems to be the
only remedy. 1t is extremely danger
Gus for a hunter to follow the deer, for
he cannot tell at what moment some
criminally careless man will shoot at
him, thinking he is a deer.
.sThe man who shot poor McLain, Of
Minneapolis, when he stood but a few
feet from Judge w. B. Douglas, in
Lake county, was never even arraigned
before justice of the peace. With the
enactment of law that viii provide
strong punishment for these careless
people, there will be fewer cases of
men being killed in the deer season by
irresponsible persons who have no
business in the woods

Twin CITY UNIONS
SHOW A CONTRAST
st. Paul Membership Has In
creased and That of Mime
apoIis Grown Less

Statistics compiled by John O'Don-
nell, state labor commissioner, show a
contradictory state of affairs in the
growth and membership of labor or
ganizations in the Twin Cities. While
there has been a small increase in the
number of labor organizations IN st.
Paul since the biennial report Of 1902.
and a large increase in the total num-
Der of men affiliated with labor organ
izations, there has been loss in mem
bership in the Minneapolis unions of
about 1900 men.
The increase in st. Paul is assigned
to the natural progress of the labor
movement. The loss in Minneapolis IS
charged to the unsuccessful strike in
the spring of 1903 of the cereal mill
employees in the Flour City. The unions
employed in the milling industry had,
prior to the strike, about 1900 MEM
bers. Efforts to obtain data during
the past few weeks by the inspectors
of the labor bureau have proven fruit
less, and it is said that, while pro-
portion of the men employed in the
-four mills are organized. they refuse
to give the public any information as
to the national unions with which they
enrolled in the local unions.
The total number of members of the
St. Paul unions, reporting Dec. 1, Is
found to be 9,474, as against total on
the corresponding date Of 1902, of 7,l54,
net gain in membership Of 1920.
There are but two additional unions,
the number in 1904 being 78, as against
rs in 1902.
The total of union employees in st.
Paul, is divided into the following
crafts: Bakery and confectionery
workers, 40; BARRIERS, 1875; black
smiths helpers, two unions, 162; boil
ermakers, 70; bookbinders, Sc; brass

WAS NOT NEGLIGENT
Judge Kelly Directs Verdict for Great
Northern in Woman's Suit

BY direction of Judge Kelly a dis
trict court jury returned yesterday a
verdict for the defendant in the case
of Mrs. Augusta Zudrow against the
Great Northern Railway company.
Mrs. Zudrow alleged that, as she
was driving a gentle horse July II,
1904, near the town of Mound, in Hen
nepin county, she approached a rail-
way crossing where the track was oc-
cupied by one of the defendants
trains. Suddenly there sounded from
the train the noise of air escaping
through the application of the air.
brakes. This noise frightened the
horse, which ran away. Mrs. Zudrow
was thrown out, her ribs were broken
and she was otherwise injured. She
sued to recover damages in the sum
of $3.50.
When directing the verdict, after
hearing the testimony, the court ex-
planned that no facts had been pre-
sented showing negligence upon the
part of the defendant.

A jury was impaneled yesterday aft
ernoon before Judge Kelly, in the dis
trict court, to try the action brought
by Walter A. C. Torbenson against the
city. The trial will proceed today.
Torbenson declares that, as he was
walking along Seventh street Dec. Is,
1903, he slipped upon ice that had ac--
cumulated on the walk at the east of
the entrance to the public library. He
broke his left leg, was otherwise in
'jured,. and was long unable to pursue
his trade as barber and grinder.
- The ice on the said walk, the plain
tiff insists, had fallen from the library
roof by reason of the faulty construc-
ton Of the roof and the neglect of the
city to keep the roof clear of snow.
Damages from the city are asked to
the amount of $500.
