Treasury Officials
To Settle Fate of
Old District Debt

A sadly mutilated District Of Column
bia appropriation bill was carried over
to the Senate from the House today.
and as the measure progressed to the
upper chamber both Congressman Ben
were claiming victory in the contro-
versity over the half-and-half system.
The House partly reversed itself late
Yesterday on the proposal to saddle en-
tirely upon the District the $4,000 ap-
preparation for interest and sinking
fund on the funded debt of the city.
In the shape in which the item was
finally approved there is a provision
that the law officers Of the Government
shall pay this interest in strict accord
ance with the act Of Congress relating
Mr.. Burleson thinks the Treasury De-
partment, and, perhaps the courts. win
rule that the Federal Government and
the District should prorate the burden.
Mr.. Johnson believes a legal construc-
1874 will result in a decision that the
general Treasury Is not responsible for
interest on this old debt Of the District.
The compromise. which seems to
Of sduabbling. Congressman Dies and
Martin (of South Dakota) asserted the
House had simply been chasing itself
around u circles, but the friends 2f
tne lu6LllCt d00 feQerdi 01OVeruueut
all smiled and everybody seemed happy.
On the whole, the organic act Came
out best at the wind-up. The House
first decided yesterday to put back the
bathing beach appropriation and to tax
the Federal Treasury for one-haf of
its upkeep.
johnson Loses.
Congressman johnson was defeated in
his effort to have the District pay the
entire amount. The bathing beach cut
went out several days ago on a point
of order. and when Mr.. johnson at
tempted to restore II at District expense
he was met by a counter proposition to
put back the item in is original shape,
and somewhat to the surprise Of Mr..
johnson, II carried.
Then came the final fight over the or
ganic act, and the funded debt interest.
The chairman Of the District Committee
moved to pay entirely out of District
revenues" this amount. Mr.. Burieson,
confronted with prior ruling of the
chair that the Federal Government
should not be held liable for 50 per cent
of the appropriations ruling upheld by
the House two days ago-offered a SUBJ
stitute for the johnson amendment. Mr..

goodies, so attractively displayed.
Mr.. Eibner, in planning the re-

dull white mortar board applied with
latticing of cherry stripes. In the
center of each section is placed q
frosted electric globe, set into the
ceiling with a brass rim, the effect
being . softly diffused white light,
without the usual glare Of electricity.
In the furnishings the same colors
are used, the new. show cases being

combined. The woodwork like that Of

To Investigate
Short Measures
~.
Driver Of Gasoline Supply
Tank Suspected Of
Crooked Work.
Man Claims Shortage is AL All
Due to Mistake in
Counting.

Considerable excitement was stirred
up among local gasoline dealers oy
the discovery that one of the drivers
who had been distributing for the local
agent of the Standard Oil Company
had been dealing out short measure to
them for some time.
Itappears that the automobile food
is drawn from the tank into 5 gallon
pals and carried by the driver to the
tank of the dealer he is supplying.
AS each pail is drawn the driver regis
ters gallons by means Of . crank
mechanism on the wagon and in that
way keeps account Of the amount de-
livered to each dealer. When the or
der Is filled the dealer is required to
sign q delivery receipt.
One of the dealers becoming suspi-
cious that he was not getting full
measure set watch upon the msn and
kept tally of the pals delivered and
found himself 10 gallons short. Upon
speaking to the driver, the man sup
piled the missing amount, and claiming
it Was simply mistake. Other deal
ers mention that they felt suspicious
also and the matter was reported to
the local agent who tried 70 clear the
matter up.
The accused man claims whatever
wrong deliveries were made we're due
wholly to mistakes. AS he is a poor
man and has family the dealers are
disposed to leniency, especially as
there is as ret no evidence that be dis.
posed of the amount he gained to any.
one else and il is quite possible that
the man was only careless. The local
agent removed the man from the gaso'
line wagon until the matter is cleared
up but is keeping him in his employ

& ndl6 anu u0dfty, OuI ACiiOW -SAoAoA
Ernst G. Koch celebrated the SOth
anniversary of his birth last Satur-
day at his home adjoining Hermann's
Park. This event was made the
occasion of q family gathering at the
old home, all of the children being
present except Mrs. Robt Heidmann of
Arlington.
Mr.. Koch was born April 10, 1888 at
Radegast, Herzogtum Anhalt- Dessau,
Germany, and came to New Ulm as
early as 1861. At the time of the out
break OF the Indian Massacre he was
on q trapping expedition at Lake
Shetek. He Immediately made for
Mankato where he arrived at the time
the Mankatoites we're organizing ,
company to come to the relief of New
Ulm. Considerable credit is due him
for his untiring efforts in getting the
M ankato people started for our hard
pressed city on the day they did.
While here he saw his share of active
service, being member of several
relief expeditions that we're sent out
from here.
1. He was married Oct. IA, 1864 to
Elizabeth Sable and Immediately took
up farming in the Town of Sigel. In
the fall of the year 1866 he was elected
Auditor of Brown County which
position he ably filed for ten years,
After retiring as County Auditor, he
opened up . real estate Office in New
Ulm and for quite . number OF years
he was Court Commissioners and also
chairman Of the Board Of County
G Commissioners.
Few have enjoyed the confidence of
the people as did Mr.. Koch and he
was repeatedly elected to Offices of
trust. He never sought these offices,
but when elected he gave the people
the best service that he was capable
Of. He was elected as member of
the Board of Education in 1881 and
served as clerk continuously for over
ten years. He was elected as member
of the City Council in 1891 and served
the city as Mayor for two terms. For
; years he was Cashier of the Brown
County Bank, its Vice Pres. for 6
years and Pres. for years. In
the year 1900 he retired from active
business and has since then de-
voted his time to looking after his
farm adjoining his homo. His
first wife died Jan. II, 1864 and he
married Caroline Schmidt in the year
1886. She preceded him il death l3
years ago. Since then he and bis
children have kept up the
home together. There are eight sons
and daughters, all of the first
who idolize their father and
do everything in their power to make
his declining years pleasant for him.
The jubiisrian is one of the sturdy
stock OF pioneers whose word is as
good rs his bond. He has always
been a great lover of Nature. The
has always appealed to-
him and manual labor has always
at all times been . recreation to
him. Doing farm work, looking after
his horses, cattle and chickens has
kept him young and fresh and has
made him sweet and even.tempered,
cheerful and cordial. Even adversity
was not able to chatter his incomitabie
spirit and he can look back serenely
upon his score years as q well.spent.
useful life.
