Extension of Union Manufacturing
ComPany's Franchise Recommended.

A1Q. DOpner yesterday secured a IA
Vorable report on the extension of the
electric light franchise owned bv the
Union Manufacturing company. at
st. Anthony Park, from the COMMITTEES
on streets of the board of aldermen.
r {. AS amended the franchise permits
the company to extend it's lines
through the city, reaching the river at
the foot Of Eagle street. The original
measure only included the st. Anthony
Park district and when the amend
ment was first submitted the, company
was only allowed to give service as
Tar as. WabaSha and Rice streets and
west as far as. Western. The amend
ment made yesterday provides that the
company can build from this point on
Rice street to College avenue. on Col
lege to Third street, on Third street to
Seven corners, and on Eagle street to
the river 1
With the addition that the proposed
line is to come in on Rice street from
the Park, as originally planned, this
line marks the district in which the
company will be permitted to do BUSH
ness, which is all that part Of the city
lying west of the route marked out.
Aid. Dobner argued that the ordi-
nance has been under consideration for
some time, and asked that action be
taken, saying that it must be consid-
cred by all aldermen when 1t comes I'D
for passage. He acceded to the re-
quest that the company be required to
construct lines on petition.
The plant Of the concern was recent
ly destroyed by fire, but it is claimed
that if this additional grant is given
it will be able to rebuild and continue
business. Its customers are being
served by a Minneapolis company.

TRADING STAMPS
IN POLICE COURT
Companies Handling Gift Stick.
ers Make Vain Attempt to
Force Fight.

Two cases involving the trading
stamp ordinance were dismissed in the
police court yesterday because the city
could not secure the delay that it de-
sired without objection from the de-
PENDANTS.
w. r. Connor, representing a trading
stamp company brought into court
charged with having sold stamps to
Andrew Schoch without having first
procured from the city a license that
would cost $500. Andrew Schoch was
also accused of having given the
stamps to customers before a license to
do SO had been taken out. They We're
arrested on complaint of George c.
Sudheimer, who was acting at the in
stance of the trading stamp people.
THOMAS McDermott appeared for the
defendants and insisted that the cases
De heard at once, holding that the de-
PENDANTS were prepared to admit the
charge made in the complaints. CITY
Prosecutor Helmes demurred, wanting
continuance to Monday. McDermott
would not agree to this, and Helmes'
motion to dismiss was granted.
Explaining the course taken in hand
ling these cases Corporation Attorney
Michael said:
They were straw cases, brought
with my consent, the object of the
trading stamp people being to have the
municipal court declare the defendants
guilty, when habeas corpus proceed
1ngs were to be instituted in the dis
trlct court. The retail dealers desired
to be represented in the proposed hear
lngS and the continuance was asked on
their request. When the trading stamp
people would not consent to this the
complaints were dismissed"
This is the first move made to en-
force the ordinance recently passed to
regulate the using of trading stamps.
The attempted enforcement of the law
will, it is claimed, come up later.

More of the striking bindery girls
went back to work In the larger bind
cries yesterday. These binders had pre-

notified accordingly that their services
would be required. Some male binders
of the local union also secured work
on the same terms. But not all the
members of the mems or girls unions
who quit have yet obtained employ

said last evening that, although some
of the men had got work again, the
men would, of necessity wait longer
than the girls. THAT isl he explained.
''the men finish jobs that are begun BY
the girls. Our binderies didn't resume
operations until the present week.
Hence our first object is to get all the
girls we need, and We'll consider the
application of the union girls and Sc

binders, Wen take up the applications
