WANTS TO MEET CUT.
Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul Wants
To Reduce Freight Rates.

Chicago, Dec. 13.--The Chicago. Mil
waukee & St. Paul road has decided
to meet the reductions which the Hill
lines have made In rates for the Twir
cities and Duluth into &c tain portions
Of the northwest. In doIng 8 the ST.,
Paul will reduce the rates on all classes
Of freight fully 10 per cent rom Chi
cago to the territory about 81 ux Falls
Sioux City and other portions Of the
northwest, especially In the Dakotas.
Permission has been asked b. the st.
Paul road of the interstate commerce
commission. TO put the new rates In
effect at once. In view OF the fact that
the Great Northern and Burlington
rates have become effective.
The action of the ST. Paul, although
taken at the urgent request OF the CHI
cago Commercial association, Is likely
to cause a lively row in the western
traffic world Several meetings have
been had on the subject and some o.
the roads. notably the Burlington and
the Northwestern, are not In favor OF
the rate reduction. The Burlington
claims that the reduction from the Min
nesota points are only such as are nee
essary to meet the rulings OF the Min
nesota commission which ordt red
horizontal reduction In tariffs. IL also
claims that the effect on the rates from
Chicago is inhnitesmal.

coRcoRAN HAD TROUBLE.

EOkCpHAN HAD THOUBLE.
Corcoran came TO Salt Lake day or
so ago and Immediately began to Ill up
on fire water.
He stepped into the saloon OF Louis
Gongovllls and ordered drink. The
exact nature OF the results are not
known both parties telling conflicting
stories OF their troubles. The saloon
man claims the Finn came into the sa-
loon and ordered drink for which he
refused TO pay,
He then became abusive and started
to break things UP, when he was
thrown out bodily by Gongovllis and
his bartender. scovist.
The Finn, on the other hand claims
that he went into the saloon TO get a
drink which was refused him.. Before
ne could get out they helped him.
This so raised his wrath that he i'm
medlately swore vengeance.
GETS HORSE PISTOL.
He came UP town as fast as he could
and secured large revolver. The gun
had lO-inch barrel and with little
trouble could be arranged to put day.
light through man.
The gun was purchased from Com
mercial street pawnbroker With this
IN MS pocket COTCoTuU was prepafeu
to deal out the high hand to all the
Greeks and Italians In the latin quar-
ter. When arrested by Police officer
Sc GER on Main and Second South he
was making west with all possible
haste.
OFFICERS GIVEN TIP.
The word OF the trouble soon spread
among the gang hanging about the
saloon and others In the quarter. A
large crowd gathered expecting further
difficulty. The depot policeman saw
this and thus found out the matter.
Word was sent to headquarters to bS
on the lookout for the man. The OFF,
GERS on Commercial street and Main,
where the Finn might be likely to be
seen were instructed to look out for
him. Within half an hour Bort Seager
spied the man and made the arrest on
charge OF being drunk and carrying
concealed weapons.
LONG STANDING FEUD.
This again brings TO light the Bit
terness which exists among the Greek
and Italians and the Firms. They will
not work tSGNher In the same mine or
job and try b i've as far apart as pos
sible. They take offence at the least
trivial matter.

HIGH. SCHOOL SITE Is
!. :. :. SUBJECT OF DEBATE

It is likely that a special meeting of
the board Of education will be held this
week to consider the erection of new
ooooe ' 9ehoei
bonds. President Robert Pratt said to-
day that no meeting had been called,
but the directors were Of the opinion
that one should be held in the next few
days, as the next regular meeting is
scheduled for March 81 and the citi-
zens are impatient for action.
Several Improvement associations will
meet this evening at the Grace Presby-
terrain church to start movement for
the location Of the fifth high school on
the old Russell homestead, Hennepin
and Twenty eighth street. A counter
movement has already been started by
the Eighth Ward Improvement ass6-
citation, which wants the school placed
on a desirable tract Of land at Emerson
that vicinity. It was argued that the
Russell site, tho prettily located, is not
central to the district to be served.
Moreover, it is directly on streetca1
line, which, they maintain, is not de-
sirable. The Emerson avenue ste has
the advantage Of being only two blocks
from the Lake street cross-town5 line
four blocks from the Hennepin avenue
lines and three blocks from the BRYAN,
avenue line and is easily accessible
from all parts of the district.
The Hawthorn Improvement associa
ton is bestirring itself in behalf Of {
new Laurel school and the Prospec
Park Improvement association will iool
after the interests Of an addition to til,
Sidney Pratt school.

LIQUOR LAWS 'I.oADED9"
New Code Makes Their Enforcement
Decidedly More Cumbersome.

Violation of the state liquor laws is
more serious offense under the new code
than under the old, and persons arrest
ed for such offenses will be tried IN the
district court. One little word has
taken this class of cases from the Jurls-
diction Of the municipal court. -.
Under the old laws violation OF the
liquor laws was misdemeanor punish
able by a fine or Imprisonment In the
workhouse. Under the new conditions
the penalty is both a fine and imprlson-
ment. This provision takes the cases
into the district court.
This viii work a hardship IN several
WAYS. The council has never passed
an ordinance making it a crime for any
one except licensed liquor dealer to
sell liquor to minors. When druggist
or confectioner was guilty Of such an
act. he was arraigned under the state
law, but prosecuted in police court.
Now the police will have to take these
cases before the grand jury.
The trials for violations In the out
side towns of the county will also be
held in the district court, thus prevent
ing speedy action.
Those who have read the liquor laws
say they are vague and that it will take
several test. trials in the courts to get a
true line on them.
