COURT AGAINST COURT
MANDAMUS PROCEEDINGS TN
COURT OF APPEALS INVOLVE
UNUSUAL QUESTION OF JURIs-
DICTION.

!: Judges w. H. Sanborn, Willis Van
Deventer and w. C. Hook, sitting as
the United States circuit court of ap-
peals, heard the arguments in the man
damus proceedings against Judge Page
Morris of the United States circuit
court yesterday. The case is quite a
novel one to lawyers and is being
watched With considerable interest, as
it is the first case of the kind brought
since the circuit court of appeals was
created in 1891.
The proceedings take their beginning
from an action brought by citizens Of
Duluth to restrain the city council Of
Duluth from paying certain sums of
money to the Barber Asphalt company
on paving contracts, the point raised
being that the contracts were invalid
from the fact that they were entered
into at time when there were not suf-
fcient money in the permanent improve
ment fund to cover the expense. While
this case was pending in the state court,
the Barber Asphalt company brought
suit in the United States court to en-
force the collection Of it's claim against
the city Of Duluth.
The city thereupon secured stay Of
proceedings pending the outcome of the
suit in the state. court. The Barber
Asphalt. company thereupon brought an
action IN mandamuS to compel Judge
Morris to vacate the stay Of proceed
ings and bring the action to trial with
out regard to the proceedings in the
state court. It is this move that is now
before the United States circuit court
Of appeals. r." 81 =.
City Attorney Fesler of Duluth raised
the point yesterday that the court of
appeals has no jurisdiction in this mat
ter as there is no appeal pending. He
further commended that the suit in the
state court should have precedence of
trial because of the priority of institu-

The new charter commission will
make strenuous efforts to get the sub

fore the public in hopes of stirring the
people to the extent that the necessary
foursevenths of the voters will vote
in its favor Nov. 8. -. ~
The commission is crippled for want
of cash, but, nevertheless, will make
what effort it can. Already some 10000
explanatory pamphlets have been print
ed. Big posters will soon tell the story
of the new charter on the billboards.
"The question of adopting the new
charter, y said G. F. Daily, of the COM
mission, this morning, "is simply g
question of whether the great city of
Minneapolis shall go on letting tho
state legislature dictate whatever
changes in city government Minneapolis
needs, or whether the people will fin
ally awake to the fact that they them
selves should have this power.
It is also proposed to bring the points
of the new charter before the voters

MATTERS MIXED
IN GRAIN TRADE
MINNEAPOLIS SHIPPING WHEAT
TO ST. LOUIS AT PRESENT.
Grain Moving to st. Louis Is Low Grade
stuff-Never in History of the Trade
Has the Marketing of Wheat Been
So Contrary to Established Rule as
to Routes and Directions. #....

A most surprising development in
the grain trade came to light today,
when it was learned that a Minneapo-
lis elevator firm has been selling wheat
to St. Louis, and that 100000 bush
els have been sold and will soon 90 out.
Shipping wheat from the northwest to
St. Louis is not unlike carrying Goals
to Newcastle" and Just why the lead
ing winter-wheat market should draw
wheat from the leading spring wheat
market is a little puzzling to traders
Nevertheless the wheat has been sold
and will soon be shipped. ..
Within a few days, it is learned,
$4,000 bushels of wheat has been sold
to go to Omaha and about $4,000 to
is low-g grade stuff. A large portion of
the receipts of spring wheat at Mime
apolls and Duluth has been "rejected''
or ono grade.' It would appear that
the southwest can handle some Of this
to advantage, and that there is no dan
ger of it's becoming a drug upon the
market, however great may be the
quantity marketed.
Never in the history of the trade
has the marketing of wheat been so
contrary to established rules. At this
moment wheat, in quantity, is coming
overland from the Pacific coast, an I'M
precedented movement, and twenty-si
cars Of Oregon and Washington wheat
were received in Minneapolis today,
seventy-five cars in Duluth and twenty
five in Chicago. Duluth has been ship
ping wheat to Minneapolis, but a
change in rates effective this morning
switched this about, and Minneapolis
is now shipping to Duluth.
Meanwhile Maine millers are buy
ing wheat in Kansas, Minneapolis men
are active in the Portland and Seattle
cash markets, st. Louis and Kansas
City are shipping high-grade winter
wheat to Minneapolis, and Mime
apolis is shipping low grade spring
wheat to st, Louis. 1t is a mixed stu
is largely. the result Of the short crops
and the large proportion Of low-grade
wheat in sections Of the country Where
high grades are necessary, for milling
purposes.

The national convention of the Mod
ern Brotherhood of America began in
Woodman hall, II Seventh street 8,
at IL o. clock this morning. About 400
persons were present, fully 200 being
official delegates and members of ma
tiOnal committees.
T. B; Hanley Of Upton, Iowa, the
man who in April of 1897 organized
the society and has ever since been it's
vention by introducing Mayor j. c..
Haynes.
Mayor J. G.. Haynes welcomed the
delegates, invited them to visit the city
hall and courthouse, and said the keys
of the city were theirs.
Governor S. R. Van SAINT was also
present to bid the convention welcome
came rather facetious in his discourse.
"Altho Mayor Haynes and 1 are
friends,' he said, "in politics, by right,
we are enemies I believe Mayor
Haynes to be the best mayor Minneapo-
lis has ever had--at the present time.'
A witty reply to the addresses Of
welcome was made by President Han,
ley. Adjournment was then taken till
this afternoon, when the executive
business session began.
This AFTERNOON is being taken up by
election of officers. All seem united in
support Of T. B. Hanley for reelection
as supreme president. E. L. BALI will
also doubtless be named to succeed him
self as national secretary. Most Of
the discussion is relative to the office Of
grand lodge physician. DR.. E. L. Bak-
er, the present incumbent, is a candi-
date to succeed himself; but his desires
are being contested by DR.. E. O. Co.'S
man of Minneapolis. In addition,
there is talk of appointing several ply
slclans as assistants because the order
has grown so large that it is getting to
be physical impossibility for one man
to review all the medical examinations.
There is also a battle in sight for the
two more days of the convention, as to
Milwaukee is hard after it; so is

AN ELECTRIC BOOTBLACK
Automatic Device that Shines and
Sooths for a Nickel.

The human bootblack faces compete:
tion by an electrical machine. Zach
Hawkins will manipulate the first of
these automatons in the west which was
set up yesterday in one of the down
town office buildings. The machines
have been used for six months in New
York and are gradually finding their
way west. Besides the advantage of a
quick shine, the brushes as operated by
the automaton have a peculiarly sooth-
ing effect. 80
The victim seats himself on regula-
ton stool top which has deather COW
cred box containing the motor. The at
tendant applies the backing and with
a lever turns the stool one-quarter of
a circle. The current is thrown on,
the automaton begins work. The first
impression given the shinee is one of
general amputation at the ankle, but
the brushes glide gently forward over
and back, from the toe to the ankle,
leaving a high polish. T wo brushes
work toward each other and polish the
sides of the shoe while a third brush,
followed to fit the instep, works at the
same time from the toe and over the
shoe to the top.
The machine is silent and effective
and is guaranteed to give polish and
to. put the patron to. sleep. in two
minutes. The invention is introduced
here by St. Paul railroad man.

SIXTEEN STAB WOUNDS
Jas. Jackson, Insane From Liquor
Slashes His Throat With Knife.

Despondent because he had lost his
position, James Jackson started ca
rousal two weeks ago, and ended it this
morning in a desperate attempt at sui
eide by cutting his throat. He was
rescued by the police. who found that
he had stabbed himself in the neck and
breast sixteen times with blunt peck
etknife.
Jackson, who lives at the Green hotel,
lost his position at the 500 shops on
account Of drink and for two weeks has
done nothing but make the rounds Of
the saloons. This morning he sudden
ly became insane from liquor and
startled the boarders by drawing a
knife and striking himself several
times. They were unable to get near
him, and while some summoned the po
lice he was allowed to. slash himself at
his will. When the officers arrived he
was unconscious from loss Of blood and
in critical condition he will probably
recover, as none of the wounds is deep.
Jackson is about 40, is not married,
and for several years has been employed
by the 500 road as a mechanic: For
more than a year he has been drinking
to excess.
