JURY AWARDS NELLIE
E. BERGER $4,000
Woman Secures Verdict Against Street
Railway for Personal Injuries

verdict for the plaintiff in the sum
of $4,000 was returned late yesterday
afternoon, after a little more than an
hours deliberation, in the case of Nellie
E. Berger against the city railway
company. The trial began Monday be-
fore Judge Lewis, of the district court.
Mrs. Berger sued to recover $4,000 for
personal injuries alleged to have been
received May II, 1904, at Wabasha and
Ninth streets, by the unexpected clos
ing of the car gates while she was
alighting from Hamline and Jackson
street car.
During the trial yesterday Stan j.
Donnelly, attorney for the plaintiff was
called to the stand by the defendants
counsel. Mr.. Donnelly's testimony re-
lated to the identity of a conductor
and was less Interesting than the fact
of his being a witness.
No reference to future proceedings
was made when the verdict had been
heard Before the jury went out the
attorneys on both sides had stipulated
that there would be stay of thirty
days whatever might be the nature of
the verdict.

MAY DEFER PAVING
OF CAPITOL GROUNDS
Only One Bid Submitted, and
Commission Considers 1t
Too High

Because it received only one bid, and
that considered somewhat excessive,
the capitol commission yesterday fall
ed to award a contract for asphalt
roadways, driveways, sidewalks and
curbing at the new capitol grounds.
The commission laid over the bid and
will consider the question of accepting
it or causing wooden walks to be laid
for temporary use during the winter
months. The commissioners will take
up the question again at meeting
today.
The only bid for the work yesterday
was that of the Barber Asphalt COM
pany, of West Virginia. It's bid was
$2.35 per square yard for asphalt and
S16O per lineaI foot for cement curb
ing. The total cost of the work, at
these figures, would be s19,075.
Vice President Charming Seabury
questioned the propriety of accepting
the Barber tender and said that st.
Paul paid only $2.20 per yard for it's
paving and As cents per lineal foot
for it's curbing.
May Defer Work Until Spring
Architect Gilbert said that the curb
ing desired by the commission was
double the thickness of that used by
the city and considerably higher. The
specifications submitted by the con-
tracing company called for the COM
pletiOn of the work by June, 1905, ana
there was a long discussion of the feas-
ibility of delaying the work until next
spring, placing wooden walks on the
grounds for temporary use during the
winter. The early approach of frost
was urged as an argument for not at
tempting to lay the cement walks dur
ing the present season, but Architect
Gilbert favored beginning on the work
at once.
The commission decided to lay the
matter over until today, and will visit
the new capitol grounds before max
ing a decision.
Gilbert Is Caustic
The submission of a blue print plan,
prepared by the city engineers office,
showing a contemplated rounding off
of the point between Wabasha and
Cedar streets, at the lower end Of the
capitol grounds, and an eight-foot
wooden walk about the curve, aroused
the ire of Cass Gilbert, architect of the
edifice. He protested that the eight
foot board walk would be an incon-
gruous establishment of the main ap-
proach to the magnificent public build
ing, and declared that all his efforts to
interest St. Paul as a city in the work
of providing for an appropriate ap-
proach and surroundings to the new
capitol had resulted in nothing.
Mr.. Gilbert's remarks created some
thing of a sensation in the commission
and Commissioner John De Laittre, of
Minneapolis, took advantage of the op-
portunity to say that a mistake had
been made in not locating the new
capitol in Minneapolis He assured
the commission that his city would
provide appropriate approaches for the
new building if it was located in Min
neapolis.

WILL TRY TO AGREE
Police Court Judge Tries to
End Family Row

After airing their domestic difficult
ties before Judge Hine in police court
yesterday, Emil H Vernon and his wife
May, who were married on Oct. 8, 1908.
agreed to make another attempt to get
along together until Saturday.
The wife, who is twenty years old,
the same age as her husband, had him
arrested on a charge Of non-support.
She said that she was compelled to
leave him last spring on account of his
treatment of her, and that he had re-
fused to give her any money. She said
she was now living with her mother az
sos Broadway street.
Vernon, telling his story, said he had
refused to let his wife attend public
dances, and that frequently she went
out when he came home and did not
get his meals. They had set up house
keeping with furniture purchased on
the installment plan, but difficulties
soon entered their home. He has re-
turned to the home Of his parents.
Judge Hine, after hearing both sides,
advised the young couple to make up.
They finally agreed to try until Satur-
day, when they will report the result.

Grand Jury Considers the Case

The grand jury yesterday considered
the cases of the four Cinnamon who
were arrested last week on the charge
