The recent order by the council
relative to the building Of new walks
and the repair Of old ones is bearing
excellent fruit, and will soon result in
adding much to the towns appearance.
All walks along the east side Of

to be carried on throughout the town
until Troy has not rotten piece of side

out the whole town walks are getting
rotten, and in hundreds Of places planks
are broken or so nearly SO that they
can be travelled only with great danger.

on allegations that Monsinger took
$735 in cash belonging to his mother
in-law Feb. and went to Saltwater,
where he was arrested by Detective
Sweeney.
Christ Sutherland is the confidence
man who is alleged to have bam-
boozled a Hager (Wis.) man out of $50
to pay a fictitious freight bill with.
William +. Carter is the former din
ing car conductor on the Northern
Pacific, charged with apprOpriating

private uses.
Joseph Diamond is accused by his
former roommate, Will Gilmore, with
having stolen his bank book and then
exhibiting it to secure the cashing of
check for $430 which he forged.
The prisoners will be arraigned be-
fore Judge Kelly Monday morning
and given an opportunity to plead.
After this formality the trial of the
cases will be taken up as rapidly as
the defendants can prepare themselves.

TROLLEY COMPANY WINS
IN SOUTH ST. PAUL
Council There Votes to Rescind Demand
for Gross Earnings Tax

At a special meeting of the city coun-
Gil held at South st. Paul last night it
was decided to revoke the ordinance re-
quiring the city railway company to pay
q yearly gross earnings tax of 8 per cent
Under the new ordinance the street car
company will be allowed to operate its
lines in the city without any compensa-
tion to the city for two years, but from
1907 to 1910 inclusive the company will
be required to pay a yearly license of
$1,000. From then on the street car

population of the city.
So far the company has agreed to run
twenty minute service from o'clock in

minute service from p. m. until mid
night. Owl cars were not mentioned
The company also agrees to build new
lines at the request of the city.

CAVALRY BARRACKS AT
SMELLING ARE READY
Squadron of the Third May Sc Ordered
Here From Fort Assinnibone

The new cavalry barracks will be COM
pleted at Fort Smelling before the end Of
this month. The barracks, which are
sufficient to accommodate four full troops
or one squadron of cavalry. are situated
In TWO groups. Each double barracks will
be large enough for two troops recruited
up to war strength
While 1t is thought likely that squad
ron of the Third cavalry will be ordered here
the officers at the post say that the re-
port that the troops at Fort AssInniboine
have been ordered here is premature at
best.
A squadron of the regiment is stationed
at Fort Assinniboine. but 1t is said to be
doubtful whether it can be spared at this
time from that post Another squadron
of the regiment is at Fort Apache Ariz,
and it is said that this body may be
moved into the department OF Dakota.
II this Is so the four troops at Assinni-
boine may come here and the troops from
the desert country succeeded TO the noun
tain post.
The other regiment mentioned as the
possible occupants of the new barracks
is squadron of the Sixth cavalry.

The old block house at Fort Smelling,
which was repaired and made conven-

of the war department, will soon be
back again in its original condition, or
as ii was prior to the time the alleged
repairs were made on IL.
Work was started yesterday to pull
off the cement and plaster that had
been added last year and at nightfall
about a quarter Of the added material
had been detached from the old land
mark and once more Ii began to take
on the aspect of a picturesque old ruin.
The repairs that were made on the
old building caused q storm of protest
from the people of the Twin Cities and
the claim was made at the time that
the improvements were in the nature
or desecration. 1t Is thought that the
building can be put into its old condi-
tfon as far as the exterior is concerned
within a week.
