vers, General Solicitor for the Iowa

Position as Long as He Desired
Future Plans Indefinite.

Albert 3. Clarke. general solicitor for
the Minneapolis & st. Louis railway, has
resigned and will leave the service of
the company, with which he has been
associated for twenty-four years He
will be succeeded by George w. Sewers,
general solicitor for the Iowa Central,
who will arrive here in a few days,
altho he will not assum charge Of the
legal department Of the st. Louis sys-

The change is made only after
Clarke s positive refusal to remain in
the railway harness any longer. He
could have retained the position as long
as he desired, as his record has been an
able.
Mr.. Clarke's Reasons.
"My work with the st. Louis road is
congenial, my associations with the
other officials has been extremely pleas
and, and in consequence my friends are
surprised that I should voluntarily quit
day. For some years, however, l had
other plans than being a mere wheel in
big machine, for that is all that a
railway man is. Some wheels are big
ger and some smaller, but they are
wheels just the same, and a man often
feels that his own individuality is lost.
It is some such feeling that has
prompted me to withdraw from the
company's service.'
Mr.. Clarke has been with the st.
Louis road twentyfour years, eight
years as attorney for the road in Iowa,
at which time he was stationed at Fort
Dodge, and sixteen years as general So
licitor, with headquarters at Minneapo-
lis. He saw the road pass thru the re-
ownership, which from legal stand
point, was one Of the most famous cases
in the country, the records making a
small library n themselves. He also
conducted the legal affairs of the com
pany in the famous Northe Minneapolis
crossings case, which grew cut Of the
first important attempt in the north.
west to abolish grade crossings The
case was fought with great vigor on
both sides, attracted much attention
and former many presidents for subse-
quent litigation. E
Mr.. Clark will remain in this CITY, as
he has become too much attached to
Minneapolis to leave it, but is not pre-.
pared to make known his plans for the
future as they are still somewhat in.

DR.. James Wallace, president of Mac
alester college has resigned. His res
ignation was first rendered year ago,
and at his urgent request committee
was appointed to find a suitable man
for the place. Such a man was not
found, and his resignation was not ac
copied.
At commencement this year, DR.. Wal
lace again asked to be relieved, but no
action was taken. He recently appeared
before the trustees and urged that his
resignation be accepted. This has fin
ally been done on condition that he

Dr.. Wallace has insisted for some
time that younger man was needed for
the arduous duties Of the presidency,
but to this the trustees have not agreed.
His twelve years Of splendid service
have meant self-sacrifce that has
amounted to heroism. Flattering offers
have been made him, but have not been
considered. His family has encouraged
him in his devotion to Manchester. A
son, who is a graduate Of Manchester,
won the Cecil Rhodes scholarship, and

Great as Reported -Aitkin Man Says
Mismanagement Of Reservoirs Is
Chief Cause Of High Water Troubles.

w. II. Williams, state labor commits
sioner, leaves tonight for Aitkin to in
vestlgate the cases of suffering and des-
tltutlon reported in that vicinity as
the result of floods which have de-
stroyed the crops of farmers along the
mississippi. He goes as the personal
representative Of Governor Johnson,
who has been appealed to by Aitkin
people.
The governor was asked to allow
county poor funds to be used on road
work as an emergency measure. The
attorney general advised him that such
course would be illegal, so the request
was denied. Being near the close Of
the tlscal year, there are no moneys
available IN the governor s contingent
fund, and no other fund from which

Y. II. Warner of the state immigra-

Not to exceed fifty or sixty settlers
have lost crops by reason Of the high

with those Of the Red river floods years
ago, or of the grasshopper scourge.
| Crops in Aitlkin outside the overlooked
lands are in splendid condition, and a
bountiful harvest Is promised The loss
to the farmers is but a small proportion
| of the high water damage. Business
men Of Grand Rapids and Aitkin have
lost $40 by the floods to 81 loss by the
farmers. Property has been destroyed
and the mills stopped for weeks.
The general opinion Of people there Is
that If the reservoirs were operated In a
little different manner they would pre-
vent all flood troubles. They have been
holding the reservoirs closed until full
with the result that these rains caught
them full and they had to add reservoir
water to the freshet. The reservoirs
should not be permitted to get more than
half full except at such time as this
when they should hold back the flood
waters. IL. Eys@ .@.-. -
