AGREES WITH CREDITORS
SCHRAPS CATERING COMPANY IS
TAKEN OVER WITHOUT A RE-
OWNERSHIP IN BUSI-
NESS

The Schraps Catering company could
not weather the dull summer season,
and by agreemnt Of the ceridtors, the
Sixth street place will be turned over
to S. Alexander, the principal creditor,
who will pay all labor bills and rs per
cent Of the other indebtedness. 1t is
probable that Mr.. Alexander will con-
tinue the business. The agreement be-
tween G. R. Schraps and the creditors
has been drawn up for signature. The
transfer will be made within the next
five days.
Some excitement was occasioned yes
terday afternoon when Mr.. Alexander,
with his attorney, H. E. Barnes, en-
tered the restaurant, ordered the doors
closed and told the employees to leave
and return later for their pay. Mr..
Schraps was absent. and under protest
Mr.. Alexander orders were obeved.
In about an hour Mr.. Schraps returned
and opened up the place. After a
heated argument it was decided to
leave the old regime in power until the
agreement could be put in writing and
signed.

CONFER AS TO LYNDALE
PARK BOARD WILLING TO PAY
PART OF COST TO PUT STREET
IN SHAPE FOR TRAFFIC.

It is estimated by City Engineer
Andrew Rinker that it will cost about
$1,000 to put Lyndale avenue in first
class condition. This work will include
the repairing Of the old macadam, grad
ing the street to proper crown and
surfacing it with crushed trap rock.
The estimate was made today at the
joint meeting between committees of
the. park board and city council, to ne
gotiate for the transfer of Lyndale
avenue to the city.
The three park commissioners at the
conference thought this sum was more
than the board could afford for the
privilege of being relieved Of Lyndale
avenue. In addition to assessments
against the AUDITING property the board
has expended about $4,000 ON that
parkway, and when opened as a traffic
road by the dictum of the courts, it
was almost ruined by heavy traffic.
The aldermen of the third and tenth
wards are willing to use ward funds
for maintaining the street in repair if
transfer was made, but they declared
today that the funds were inadequate
suggested by the city engineer.
No action was taken today, as there
was not full attendance, but the SUBJ
ject will be taken up at a later meet
ing.
It is believed that satisfactory COM
promise will be effected. The park
| board has expressed a willingness to
improve Lyndale avenue, but the com
missioners say the board should not be
called upon for an appropriation of
more than $4,000 or $4,000. They argue
that it is unjust to require the board
| to build traffic street for the city, in
view of the large sums already devoted
for that purpose.

REACHED BEYOND
THE CITY LIMITS
HOW ST. PAUL BOOSTED 1904
BUILDING RECORD.
Total Brought Nearly UP to Mime
apolis by Including Fort Smelling,
State Fair Grounds and State Agri-
cultural School, Ali Outside the City
Other Novel Methods Used.

By including the building operations
at Fort Smelling, the state fair grounds
and the state agricultural college, and
by some clever juggling Of figures, st.
Paul makes very creditable showing
in the building line for the. year 1904.
The annual report Of the department Of
public works for 1904, which has just
appeared here, places the total building
liz ST. Paul for last year at 81 ,033,l i6,
or but little less than the amount in
Minneapolis, which was $7,S20,000. In
other words st. Paul purports to have
done practically as much building last
year as did the larger twin.
Jesse H. Wakeman, clerk Of the Min
neapolis department of building inspec-
ton, disputes this and points to the re-
port itself to confirm his doubts. In
the detailed statement is Included an
item Of $5ll,S for the improvements
at Fort Smelling, altho the fort is not in
st. Paul and not even in Ramsey coun-
ty. Minneapolis has no intention OF
including the building at the fort in it's
totals, altho it could do so with more
justice thar. the other twin. Other
items are the state fair grounds, $780,
456, and the state agricultural college
and experimental farm, $42 800, neither
of which are within the corporate linn
list Of st. Paul, but in the town Of Rose.
Then there is an item of $8l9,7l2 for
"twenty per cent of the estimated cost
added,' and 100000 for miscellane-
Gus improvements for which no permits
were issued (estimated).
81 can't imagine why any of these
five items should be included in the to-
tals,''' said Mr.. Wakeman. "The
building figures of st. Paul should be
where, and For; Smelling and other
points outside cannot properly be in
cluded. AS Tar as 7 know; the cities
do not generally ado anything to the
estimates given when the permits are
issued, neither do they include in theil
totals an estimate for minor improve
ments for which no permits are re
| quired.. There is also an item of nearly
one and a quarters millions for work
particular objection to including state
building in the figures, but it will b.
news to many that $1,239,996 was spen
on the building last year.
"The actual number of building per
mits issued in St. Paul was 1867, ant
the estimated cost Of construction wa
$3,719,330. The number of plumbing per
nits was 1923, and the cost 1919, 200
This is no doubt creditable showing
make claim of doing nearly rs mucl
as Minneapolis. We issued last yea
4,466 building permits, the figures o
cost being $6,701 ,965 or nearly twice a
much as st. Paul's, and the plumbin,
permits numbered 3,032, to cost 1912
239. 1t is not the practice here to in
clude state or federal work unless pei
mits are actually applied for, which i
not always done. Neither do we al
bitrarily increase the estimated cost b.
20 per cent or any other per cent, an
we make no estimate on minor improve
ments unless permits are issued.''.

A BURLEsQUE INNOVATION
Empire Circuit Takes Fve~Year Fran
chise for Dewey Theater.

One of the big surprises Of the theat-
rical world the past summer was the
change in the policy Of a chain Of thea
tiers from Minneapolis to San Francisco.
Most of the theaters were playing nigh.
class attractions, but at the meeting of
the Empire Circuit Of Burlesque and
Vaudeville house managers they were
given the franchise to play the line of
e city, for nth the &C coming i've years. Among
them was the beautiful playhouse, the
California theater in San Francisco, and
others to fall in line were theaters in
Tacoma, Butte, Portland, Seattle, Salt
Lake and Denver. Williams Ideals,
the attraction to open the Dewey thea
ter Aug. 90, will be the first road com.
pany to play over this new territory the
coming season. They travel in their
own private cars and the road managers
as we'll as the western house managers,
think the innovation will prove a big
winner.

OPERATORS LOSE GROUND
Backbone of Strike on Great Northern
in Montana Said to Be Broken.

Specials to The Journal.
Butte, Mont, Aug. 1.-THE strike of
the telegraphers on the Great Northern
in this locality is broken. There is no
longer any attempt to deny this fact
The blow that broke the strike was the
action of the company in raising the
salaries of station agents.
Many Of the strikers were station
agents as we'll as operators, and when
the announcements was made that the
salaries Of station agents had been
raised, there was general scramble Of
such men for reinstatement.
Great Falls, Mont, Aug. lit may
be stated positively that twenty-five
Of thirty-one telegraph offices have bees
re-opened. Strikers have returned to
work in one of the most important Of
fees of the company in this city, and
others have returned to their former
positions elsewhere.
A few strike breakers are at work
under guard, but it is understood that
the guards will be withdrawn in forty
eight hours, and it is known that the
general feeling among the strikers is
that the strike will be called off with
in that time. ,.
