Headquarters at West Hotel.

The national headquarters for the
Minneapolis encampment will be at the
West hotel. This question was settled
at the same session as the date of the
meeting and was the plan Of the council
rather than the local committee Is. Gen
eral Rogers has looked over the down
town streets and tentative line Of
march has been selected, but will not
be made public.
These three questions, the date, the
selection Of headquarters, and plans
Of the parade are the most important
to come before the visitors.
49, B. II. N elson, as first vice president
Of the State Agricultural society, APP
penred before the council and local
representatives to urge an early date
that the encamp1nent might not conflict
with the state fair, which usually comes
the first week in September The en-
campment and the fair each last a
week and both are big affairs and Sc
cure the same rate concessions from
the railroads. The fair managers were
specially fearful of a late date that
might cause the encampment to over
shadow the fair, but it is believed that
there will be no reason to fear a fall
ing off in fair attendance with the Aug
ust date. AS it is, the month from
Aug. Ii to Sept. Ii will be a strenuous
and busy one for Minneapolis, and in
fact for the entire state.

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES

+. . + Z 2 e .
Aug. 13 is the date selected for the
National G.. A. R. encampment in Min
neapolis next summer.
The date was decided upon today by
the national council Of administration,
headed by Commander-in-chief James
local committees and representatives Of
the railroads. The local interests "a.
vored an early date, preferably July is,
but the G. A. R. council felt that it
was making every possible concession in
fixing the date as early as the middle Of
August. The voluminous reports Of the
organization are due Juno 80 and must
be edited and arranged in time to be
presented at the encampment sessions. AS
the early date did not allow sufficient
time for this, and as September is the
date usually selected, the council set
the date for Aug. Is as being the earli-
est advisable.

STEINER WANTS
Wife DIVORCED

Emil Steiner, like his wife, evil
IDENTIFY believes in single blessedness
after establishing marriage as a fail
ure.
Yesterday Mrs. Steiner was to have
secured a divorce on the usual statu-
tory grounds, but the court refused
to hear the case because of a defect
in the complaint, which failed to set
forth that Mrs. Steiner is a resident
of Spokane county.
After reading in The Press of the
failure of his wife to get the divorce,
Steiner voices his disappointment in
a letter written at .Pasco. Wash. The
letter is headed with the following
instructions:

company and the old telephone COM
pany.
Today, however. the corporation
counsel was assisted by host OF
corporation lawyers, led by III. M.
Stephens, attorney for the Washing
ton Water Power company, who took
advantage Of every legal phase to
fight the issuance of the writ.
Judge Warren is hearing the case
in place of Judge KEENAN,. This morn
ing the corporation attorneys set up
the plea that franchises are state
property and that a city is merely
acting as an agent for the state; also
that the granting of franchises is a
legislative function and therefore a
function which the people can not
usurp.
1t is believed the gist of the argu-
ment will be turned to the point of
attempting to declare the new law un-
constitutional.
This afternoon is being taken up
with the setting forth of the legal
points.
