let in His Head When Officer
Goes to Arrest Him.

William Smith, who kept a general
store in South st. Paul, committed
suicide last night at s o'clock by shoot
ing himself through the head.
Policeman Robertson, of South ST.

that he had warrant for his arrest on
a charge of indecency. Smith asked to
have the warrant read and the officer
did so.
On hearing the particulars Smith
said that he would go along to the
station, and asked if he might get his
coat, which he had in small room ad-
Joining the store in which he slept.
The officer said that he would wait,
and Smith entered the room and lock-
ed the door.
A moment later Robertson heard
report of pistol, and on bursting the
door open found Smith with bullet
hole in the center of his forehead. The
man was quite dead.

st would be willing to leave my
business in this city tomorrow to fight
with the Japanese troops against Rus
sia," said A. Rosenfeld, a Russian Jew,
last night to h e Glob e.
Mr. Resented was born in Russia,
at Kreveozera, which Is about 120
miles from Odessa, but he was obliged
to leave that country some years ago
by reason Of the oppression Of the
Jews in the section in which he lived,
and particularly the cruelties inflicted
upon the members Of his family be-
cause they we're Jews.
"My eldest brother" he said, KILLED
himself because of the manner in
which he had been abused by govern.
ment officers and anti-JeWish resi-
dents of the neighborhood in which we
lived, and my father, after sixty five
years in the employ Of the government
as a contract teamster, has now had
all his teams and his other property
practically confiscated because he is a
Jew, and has been obliged to come to
this country.
Drove His Brother to Suicide.
There are no railroads in the part
of the country from which I came, and
my father had contracts with the gov
eminent to furnish transportation to
officers and employees Of the govern
ment between three stations. When
my eldest brother got married my fa-
Their gave him one Of these stations,
with the horses and equipment to op-
crate the business at that point. But
because my brother was Jew the
people of that place would not allow
him to live there, and drove him away.
The officers Of the government took
sides with these people and ordered
my brother away. He could not even
get his own horses that my father had
given him, and on account Of his trout
bles he killed himself.
"Then my father gave me the sta
ton where my brother had been. bur
the people would not let me stay there,
and I decided to leave that country
entirely. That was eight years ago.
and I have now lived in st. Paul for
seven years, with the exception Of a
year or two when was in St James,
MINI.
"Since I left home my father has
been obliged to give UP his business
on account of the persecution inflicted
upon him because of his race, and he
has lost all of his property. Nearly
all of my family are now in this coun-
try, most of them in New York"

The grand jury, which was called to-

ANOTHER HARD JOLT
Team Owners Union Protests
Against Move to Drag Organ
lied Labor into Politics.

The ST. Paul Union Of Team Owners,
Local No. 120, last evening gave a jolt
to the Don't Vote For political list
promulgated few days ago by COM
mittee of ten from the Trades and La
Dor assembly.
1t was the opinion of the members
present that a mistake had been made,
and because of this feeling the union
refused to allow the distribution of
the Don't Vote For lists in the hall.
The feeling among the large number
present was that the effort to drag the
unions into politics is mistake. and
that it must result in harm to the
cause of organized labor
Resolutions were adopted declaring
that the putting Of the names of a
number of the steadfast supporters of
the cause of unionism on the list was
decidedly wrong," it being declared by
a number. of the speakers that it is I'M

FAIR MANAGERS
DISCUSS IMPROVEMENTS
Want Better Street Railway Facilities
at Fair Grounds.

At a meeting of the board of man
ayers of the state fair, held yesterday
afternoon at the Merchants hotel, the
board accepted the plans Of Architect
C. H. Johnson for the new building to
be erected for the Northwestern Man
ufacturing association in the machin-
cry section Of the fair grounds. The
building will cost in the neighborhood
of $4,000.
The board also discussed plans for
better track and transportation facili-
ties at the grounds, and a suggestion
was made for the removal of the Great
Northern and Northern Pacific tracks
from the grounds in order that a loop
might be put in by the street railway
company. 1t was argued that the load
ing and unloading from the cars could
be done on the south side of Lang
ford avenue

CAPITOL COMMISSION
. DOESN'T WANT THE JOB
Would Not Care to Supervise Con-
struetion of Governors Mansion.

IT think I may safely say that the
present Minnesota capitol commission
will not consent to supervise the con-
struction of governors mansion"
said E. e. Corliss, member Of the
commission, yesterday.
1.-THE commission has undertaken and
has practically completed task which
few people realize the magnitude of,
and it's members are not looking for
any new worlds to conquer. When
they finish the new capitol next sum-
mer they will have had enough, and
they want nothing to do with any
scheme to erect a governors man
sion or any other kind of building.
The proposition looks something to me
like a play to the galleries"

EAST SIDE SYNDICATE
is DECLARED OWNER
Receivers Property Claimed by Ten
ant Under Tax Title.

In an opinion filed in the district
court yesterday by Judge Kelly the
East Side syndicate was given title to
property near the Indian mounds
which has been occupied and improved
by Mrs. Augusta Kampfer Mrs.
Kampfer was originally a tenant of
the syndicate, but when the syndicate
failed to pay its taxes she continued to
hold the property. She paid the taxes,
and, after securing tax title, made
improvements to the extent of 5000.
Judge Kelly holds that the tax title
held by Mrs. Kanpfer is faulty and
vests the title to the property in the
syndicate, with the proViso that it pay
to Mrs. Kampfer $40. which amount
has been expended by her in paying
the taxes and improving the property.
