Man WITH vi 4 SAW
IN HIS NECK.1' ! | J.
JAILtAUTHoRITIEs GLADLY HAND
HIM OVER TO DULUTH.
Where He Looted Hotel-Ie Is Also
Accused Of Burglary at 500 Tenth
street-Jail Visitors This Week
Cause Authorities Some Trouble.

Hennepin county jail officials, were
treated to a novel experience today,
when John jacobson, held on q charge
Of grand larceny in the second degree,
declined to accept his release and in
sisted that he preferred to remain in
the county bastile.
The cause of his action was appar-
ent when, after he had been forced to
lrpack his trunk and go, he was immedi-
ately taken into custody by Officer
Wilcox of Duluth, where he will be
taken to answer the more serious Of
Tense of looting q hotel.
One Of the reasons for handing
Jacobson over to the Duluth authori;
ties was the fact that he is considered
a dangerous man and disturbing ele-
ment in the, Jail. Shortly before his
release today he was searched and a
steel saw Of the most approved pattern
and material was found sewed in his
necktie. Jailor Nels Clausen, has dis,
| covered no signs Of his work at local
bars, but he was evidently prepared for
| emergencies. : l. 49, 4 :lS}..2s&
jacobson is accused Of having stolen
about, $50 worth Of jeWelry from 300
Tenth street. He is believed tohave
| been implicated in several other burg
laries and to be professional cracks
man with record that ight-fngered
men would envy. His operations are
SAID TO nave covered the enG1ro nOrCn-
| west, and his Duluth and Minneapolis
Tstunts' are claimed to be only few
| of his feats. He was released on his
| own recognizance today by Judge F. ".
Brown. Unless he is acquitted in Du-
luth he will probably not be seen again
In Minneapolis; at least, not until he
has served penitentiary sentende. If
he. is released in the northern city he
will be brought back here and tried.
- Visitors at. Jail Suspected.
The jacobson incident Of the saw has
led Jailor Clausen to suspect that G. A.
R. week may not have been any great
advantage to his jail safety and disci.
pline. It has been case of open house
all Of the week, and during the past
five days it is estimated that between
1900 and 1000 strangers have visited
the county Jail. Owing to the large
number Of Visitors it has. been abso.
lutely impossible for the Jail officers to
keep close watch and there is no tell.
ing what may have been handed to the
men behind the bars. One young man
was summarily1 elected from the jail
yesterday for handing what. he said wa.
tobacco. to one of the prisoners, and
others have been Informed as to the
Jail rules, but the utmost watchfulnese
has probably not prevented some Of the
jail boarders from getting what they
want, and the officers are on a SHARP
outlook for possible trouble. !.

-. Shop Construction.

The st. Paul assembly last night by
unanimous vote granted the street rail
way company an extension Of nine
months in which to complete the new
shops at University and Smelling ave-
nues. ~ .s 55stt.
Under the company's agreement with
the city Of St. Paul the shops should
have been completed by Sept. 6, but
when it was explained that the original
scope of the shops had been enlarged
almost a third, and that the scarcity
Of labor and the delay in obtaining ma
terial had prevented the company from
finishing, the assembly readily con.
sented to the extension of time.
