men, They argue that as soon as the
present strike is ended they propose
TO organize union in South st. Paul
independent of the national body, say
ing that they realize that in an iusti-
U. "a
union is needed to adjust grievances.
This proposition is laughed at by the
union men who have remained true to
the organization. They say that it
was because of the power of the ma
tlonal union that it was possible to ad-
just the grievances of the men pre-
Vious to the strike.
Practically all of the men staying in
the plant were at work yesterday. this
course having been pursued at their
request. They contended that, as they
1ound 1t unsafe to get out and around
they preferred to be engaged. AS a re-
suit there were comparatively few Wis
itors at the plant yesterday, the guards
at the gate still being under instruc-
tlons from the officials to refuse en-
trance to strangers, and particularly to
see that newspaper men were carefully
guarded while on their way to the Of
fees. The officials persist in their re-
fusal to allow an inspection of their
plant, and say that this rule will be
enforced until the strike is at an end.
Union Ordered From Headquarters
The Butchers union has been noti-.
fed by the Great Western Railway
company, through the city of South ST.
Paul, that it must Vacate the second
story Of the fire engine house, but no
attention has been paid to the notice.
The Great Western owns part of the
land on which the fire house is located,
having leased it to the city for ninety
nine years, with the provision that it
should be used solely for fire sta
ton. In the notice to the city that the
strikers must Vacate the company says
that the conditions of the lease have
been violated. Mayor Lytle and other
city officials express the opinion that
the vacation notice will not be en-
forced

A hog Is not an animal of great in

RUNAWAY DRAGS HIM
Patrolman Nightingale Stops
Mad Horse and Saves Life

Patrolman Nightingale stopped a run
away ON Ninth street, between Waba-
sila and st. Peter, at 10 o'clock last
night, and saved the life of w. R. Du
Shane, 538 Robert street, who had been
thrown from the buggy and was being
dragged over the spavement by the
reins in which he wsss entangled. Du-
Shane had been dragged more than a
block, when the policeman brought the
horse to a standstill, and had received
several injuries, his left leg being
crushed and his body cut and bruised.
The horse became frightened on
Cedar street, and turning suddenly into
Ninth, threw DuShane from the buggy.
Being tangled in the reins the man was
unable to release himself and was
dragged headlong over the ground until
the officer stopped the horse,
As the horse crossed Wabasha street
a large crowd waiting for cars was
scattered and several women tainted
Nightingale was coming from st. Peter
street towards Wabasha when he saw
the runaway approaching. He rushed
to the middle of the street, and seizing
the bride of the horse as it dashed
along, brought the animal to a stand
still. DuShane was taken to a drug
store, but insisted upon being allowed

.BUDY WILL REMAIN
Police Commission VIII Not
Remove Lieutenant

AT a special meeting of the board
of police commissioners this week
Lieut.. William Budy will be found not
guilty of the charges made against hirn
by the Midway citizens
The police commissioners have In
dividually gone over the evidence, and
a majority have expressed the opinion
that the citizens committee failed to
make out a case. All that is neces-
sary, therefore, is the holding of a
meeting and the formal PRONUNCIATION
of the view.
Budy was formally tried before the
commission three weeks ago, and 1t
was planned at the time to call q
meeting to give decision within q
short time, but for one reason or an
other this was postponed. AT the regu-
lar monthly meeting, however, the find
ing viii be filed, and Lieut. Budy will
be continued in charge of the Prior
avenue station.

COLLlDES WITH CAR
ID. koenig Injured While Cross.
ing Street Car Tracks

Daniel Koenig, 43 Sycamore street,
was struck by Como car while riding
across Wabasha street, at the intersec-
tion of Iglehart, yesterday evening at
IS O'Clock, and suffered serious injury.
His left leg was fractured in two places
above the knee, and his knee cap was
broken into four pieces.
Koenig was thrown ten feet by the
force of the collision and his bicycle
was picked up on the fender of the car.
DR.. j. c.. Nelson was called, and, after
giving Keenig temporary treatment,
sent him to st. Joseph's hospital, where
his leg was set last night.
The shock of the collision rendered
sKoenig unconscious, but he recovered
last night. Koenig is forty-five year
old.
The accident happened as Koenig
was riding across the street car track.
He passed behind one car and was
struck by the Como car, which was
going up Wabas1Ia street.

the administration slate was said to be
last night:
Supreme Recorder, Salary $2,500-
Mrs. j. A. Roger, of Erie, Pa, the pres
ent incumbent
Supreme Treasurer, Salary $1,500-
Mrs. F. M. Girardot, of Detroit, who
succeeded Mrs. Costelloe as treasurer
three years ago and was previously a
most efficient member of the board of
auditors.
Supreme Marshal-Mrs Anna Cott-
ringer of Niagara Falls.
Mrs. Roger has been supreme record
er since the association was establish
ed fourteen years ago. She will doubt
less be reelected. Besides Mrs. Cos
telloe, the recorders most prominent
opponent viii be probably Miss A.
O'Dennell, of Pittsburg.
The present marshal, Mrs. Theresa
Fritz of Chicago, will not limit her
efforts, it is said, to retaining her pe-
sftion. and she will not secure the sup
port of the administration. She will
start in today as a candidate for sec
end vice president and, if her advocates
have their way, She viii, like Mrs. Cos
teHee, attempt that gauntlet of Sir
priSes called running down the line"
That is, she will be proposed in turn
for all the offices from second vice
president to trustee.
ed. These nine members of the presi-
dents cabinet enjoy a prestige that
more than offsets the lack of salary.
They meet quarterly with the president
and. the recorder. AT these sessions,
held in various cities, the laws of the
association are interpreted and mat
ters of great moment are adjusted.
Must Name Four Trustees
Five of the trustees 'thold over this
year. -Four will be elected to take the.
places Of Mrs. M. l.. Youngblood, of
Newark, N. j.; Mrs. K. j. Bowling, of
Rochester; Miss Kate Mahoney, Trey;
and Mrs. A. J. Brady, Pittsburg. No
less than twenty-five candidates are
already in the field.
The contests this week will be pro-
1onged and perhaps exciting. Eight
officers are to be elected, and two hours
and a half We're required Saturday to
cast and count the ballots fer each
office. The four trustees, of course,
VIII be named on one ballot, but the
ballots for each name will be counted
separately.
1t is, therefore, doubtful whether the
association will be able to adjourn
finally today. After the officers have
been elected they must be installed.
One of the few important questions
not yet determined is where the asso-
citation will assemble in 1907. Denver
is the only city that has received def
mite support. .iss
But there are several local branches
of the L.. B. C. "A. at Denver said a
prominent delegate yesterday. I'VE
prefer to meet where we don't have to
accept many social attentions, such as
local branches always tender so gen.
erously. We are usually tired out after
our business sessions, and would rath-
er rest than exchange compliments"

SMALL SHARKS BUSY
OFF SOUTH ST. PAUL
Big Fish Pull Down Beef
Hearts and Other Pack.
ing Plant Refuse

Ihat there are big fish, and plenty
OF them, in the Mississippi river has
& been demonstrated during the past
week at South St Paul, where some
OF the big fellows have been seen to
make away with beef hearts and other
pieces of beef offal fully as large.
Owing to the strike, it was impossi-
bic for the packers to make che usual
disposition Of the offal, kidneys, hearts
ana other pieces, with the result that
II was sent into the river by way of
the sewer. Whether the very large
nSh We're on the scene, or by some
teiepathIc means were notified of the
existence of the food, is not known,
but that the big fish appeared and got
busy was evidenced by what occurred.
"A large heart would float out of the
sewer, and, getting out into the stream,
start on its way down the river, when
suddenly there would be a swish of the
water, the flap of a tail and the heart
would disappear. Sometimes the piece
OF meat would reappear on the surface,
but more often it would not be seen
again.
by the fishermen in the vicinity it
was estimated that the fish able to
swallow a beef heart Of ordinary size
must weigh in the neighborhood of 100
pounds, and 1T was suggested that they
We're doubtless catfish, common in the
river further south, and closely related
to bullheads. 1t is claimed that there
are no other fish in the river that could
swallow such large pieces of meat.
During the last few days all of the
refuse that has come from the sewer
has been quickly consumed, and it is
believed that the number of the large
fish has Increased. The result has been
that there is great demand for large
fish hooks in South ST. Paul, many of
the citizens sitting on the banks for
hours at time fishing with beef
heart as bait. Thus far the large fish
have avoided the hooks, confining
themselves to pieces that float on the
top of the water.
Small boys who are fishing along
the bank now take the precaution of
attaching their lines to nearby trees
or some other object sufficiently solid
to prevent their being drawn into the
river if by chance one of the monsters
should take a notion to grab onto the
smaller bait
Yesterday the bank of the river was
lined with persons fishing, many wom-
en- participating. All were anxious to
be the first to land prize. Every fish
caught created the greatest excitement
among the fishermen and the onlook-
ers, but the large ones proved to be
wary of the hooks.
