Will Investigate the Vouchers Pre-
sented by Chairman Seabury.

TlOI w tuiltS,loiA 1dlly.
After a conference with Attorney
General Young, Governor johnson an
nounced that he intended looking over
the vouchers presented by Claiming
Seabury chairman of the state capitol
commission for the past ten years, and
if he discovers any overcharges, action
would be brought to recover the amount
This action is Il result of the GOV
ernor's refusal to sign vouchers amount
ing to S760 presented Saturday by Sea
bury for his own personal services.
The governor said in explanation of
this that the commission was an honor
airy body, and did not deserve pay ex-
cept for actual work done.
He said also that the bill of $3.50
presented by Seabury for considering
applications for positions, was illegal. as
no member of the commission had a
right to act in such matters individual
ly.
Ii the accounts of the commission are
gone into in detail. as Governor John
son indicates. some sensations NAV be

BRIGADlER GENERAL FRANK D. BALDWIN,
FISH FOR THE LAKES.
Game and Fish Commission to Stock
Up the Waters.

from MONDAY Dally.
Minnesota fishermen need not worry
about the stock of fish in the lakes and
streams of the state. if the efforts OF
the state game and fish commission to
secure fish fry every year are as sue
ccssful as they have been this season.
The commission will plant more fry
this season than ever >,efore. 1t secur
ed ll0,ooo,o0o pike eggs and is dis
tributing 100000 trout fry to various
points throughout the state. Both fig
ures are far in excess of any previous
year.
The distribution of the pike fry was
finished about the middle of June. and
since then Oscar Davies, formerly clerk
of the commission, has been engaged
distributing the trout. He has stock
ed the lakes in the vicinity of st. Cloud.
Clear Lake, Anoka, Winona and other
points in the southern part of the state
during the last few days. The commits
sion aims to treat every section of the
state fairly.
Should the commission plant 100000
900 fish every year and should half of
them, 10000, 900. grow up, the fishermen
IN future years. may catch 500O0,OOO
fish year without decreasing the sup
ply. On the supposition that there are
100000 active fishermen in the state.
each fisherman could catch 800 fish IA
year.
I'VE have been very successful in get
ting fish eggs this year." said Mr.. Full
lerton ''but we have to do well some
years to make up for the bad years. 1t
takes tremendous amount of fish to
keep up the supply. The drain on the
lakes is almost inconceiyable. If one
were to know the amount of fish tax
Ell out of White Bear lake every Sun
day, he would be surprised.
''In distributing the fish we aim to
treat every section of the state fairly.
OF course sometimes we have more ap-
plications for fry than we can fill, but
this year | believe that we shall have
enough for all.''

SHOWS A GOOD GAIN.
Eleven Counties Complete Boosts
States Population.

from fIluay Ially.
Complete returns of the state census
tabulated i'll eleven counties yesterday
show an increase i'll population OF from
10000 in 1900 to III 900 in 1908. or a
gain OF TX per cent. These counties
are: Grant. Brown Carver, Cotton
wood Dakota, Douglas, Isanti Mile
Lacs. Mobiles, Redwood and Clay. They
arc arc. seIecfad from eyerv sectiss 81 c;lt
state and are considered representative
Late returns from Ramsey, Hennepin
and st. Louis counties are very favor
able. and it is thought that the total
increase in these counties will be over
100000, instead of $4,000 as previously
estimated by officials of the census
bureau.
"St. Louis county will show gain
of about 10000" said Odin Haltlen of
Duluth. county auditor of St. Louis
county, who was in st. Paul Yesterday.
Duluth will show an increase of about
10000"
Hennepin county claims gain of
more than $4,000, and the increase in
Ramsey will be 10000 to 10000. This
will make a total of 100000 to 10000
for the three large counties.
Basing their estimate on the tabula
tions already made, the officials of the
census bureau reckon that there will be
10 per cent gain in the counties out
side of Ramsey, Hennepin and st.
Louis. As the population OF the three
large counties was about 100000 in 1900
and the total population about l,7G0
900, 10 per cent gain in the rest of
the state would mean 100000. which
added to the estimated gain in Ramsey,
Hennepin and St. Louis makes 100000.

Cigars, Were at MadeIia.
St lie Sixteen Quarts of Lager;
Revolver and Stamps.
Taken From the Office of a
Lumber Company.
Three Men Make Up The Gang;
Efforts for Capture.
From Tuesdays Daily.

From Tuesdays Daily.
Some clues that may lead to the cap
ture of the burglars who broke into the
Selleck factory last Saturday night and
stole about three hundred cigars, are
in the hands OF the police. Last Sunday
three men, strangers, appeared i'll Ma
della, with a quantity of cigars, which
they offered for sale. One was about
five feet eight inches tall, and seemed to
be about twenty years old, weigh
ing perhaps 80 pounds. wearing black
checkered suit, and seeming withal,
were very poorly dressed and appeared
to be about thirtyfve years of age.
On Sunday night burglars broke into
a beer hourse in that city and stole six
teen quarts of beer. \ lumber office was
also broken into, and revolver and a
quantity of stamps taken therefrom.
The Mankato police, on hearing of
this news from AIedelia, were firmly of
the opinion that the parties who offer
ed the cigars for sale were those who
broke into the Selleck cigar factory.
and also were the ones who burglarized
the beer house and lumber office at
Madelia.
Have a Suspect in Custody.
About nine o'clock this morning Chief
Donahue received telephone message
from the marshal at Madelia stating
that the marshal had under arrest "a
man. whom he suspected of being one
of the burglars who broke into the Gil
gar store at MauKatu. The marshal bas
ed his opinion largely OH the company
in which he saw that particular indi-
vidual. A warrant was made out for the
arrest of John Doe on the charge of
Sheriff Osten Immediately went to Ma
della with the same and got the man.
The prisoner arrived early in the after
noon in the officers charge. He appears
to be about thirty years old He gives
his name as Charles Brown and claims
to be from Omaha. He says he is a
single man. He says he is a tailor by
trade but was in Madelia for the pur-
pose of finding work of any kind He de-
tained that he never was in Mankato be-
fore today.
This afternoon the prisoner was ar
raigned before Judge Comstock and his
examination set for Saturday at three
o'clock in the afternoon. He was placed
under bond in the amount of 500. Fail
ing to furnish this he was committed to
the county jail.

During the season to date there has

Lincoln county, Mimi, four square
miles, partial damage.
"Covington, county, S. d., five square

Total, forty-two square miles.
Have no hail since june 27.
The grain damaged to date by wet
weather is as follows: Spotted places in
Dodge county Ainn.; the low lands
south of Sleepy Eye: Il strip of territory
estimated at 5000 acres in Redwood

Ganlton to Wakonda heavy damage on

to above there may be low places or
depressions in fields even on high ground
where the water has accumulated and
remained on the ground and damaged
the crop.
The above two paragraphs cover all
the damage done here. In fact a large
area in states Of Minnesota and South
Dakota in small grain is much above the
average as noted by stand. season. root
and every conbined essential i'll crop

some red rust. There never has been
Il season SO dry but there were some
places that were not wet enough for red
rust. There is little generally this year
and with the exception in three wet To-
calities there is practically none.
"The season is late. The barley har-
vest will begin by July 20, and wheat
not much if any before Aug l. The

ducive to quick ripening. But the crop
is all standing up, is good stand and
at present, favorable weather. 1t may

There may be black rust by sudden
change, more hail and more wet weather
that will destroy it all, but the fact re-
mains that there is at present prospect
for more than an average crop and no

ADAMS WARRANT IS ILLEGAL
ROBINSON WITHHOLDS DECISION, CLEARLY
DICATEs
JUNCTION OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES A NEW
TEST PROPOSITION.

The McClanahan-Trent hoodoo in
junction suit struck another snag this
morning and decision was withheld,
though it seemed apparent that Judge
Robinson had made up his mind, and
was ready to declare the Andrew
Adams blanket warrant illegal though
whether because it was Il blanket war;
rant or for other reasons brought for
ward did not appear. After many
efforts to reach a compromise the case
went to hearing and was argued to
finish. Judge Whiting argued that
Adams should be party and the
judge agreed with him.
adams is not bound by this suit un-
less he is party" said Judge Whit
ing. Suppose your honor should
issue an injunction against paying this
writ. Then Adams might get man
dumus ordering it paid, from another
Judge
In view of this proposition Judge
Robinson withheld his judgment, al
lowing McClanahan to amend his petit
tion so as to make Adams party but
it is doubtful whether the matter will
be fought out, as arrangements are be-
ing made to make a test case of the
Frazee warrant.
Judge Robinson clearly indicated his
opinion that the warrant was illegal.
McClanahan's claims that it was ille-
gal were based upon three different
grounds. The first was that it was a
blanket" warrant, that is, was in
favor of Andrew Adams but for the
| ork of seven laborers whom he paid.
Gong back of the resolution of the
Board approving the claim McClanahan
argued that the seven men were the
real parties having claim against the
county The second ground was that
the warrant failed to state according
to statute specifically what it was
for and the third was that it did not
follow the legal provision that war
rant shall state the date on which the
! liability for which it is drawn is in
Cured. Whiting argued that the Board
