DIVORCE CASE
REQUIRES. THREE.
DAYS IN TRIAL
Matter of Johnson VS.. Johnson
Still Occupies Attention of
District Court.

The divorce case of Albertina John
son VS.. August johnson, which has
been on trial since Monday afternoon,
was not disposed Of IN Judge Fesler's
division Of the district court at noon.
The indications were that it would not
be concluded today.

Johnson and Edward Boyle is attor-
ney for Johnson. Mrs. johnson in
her petition for divorce alleges cruel
and inhuman treatment. Johnson has
filed a cross bill in which he seeks a
divorce on the same ground. One Of
his allegations is that his wife has
made him the defendant in four diff
ferent lawsuits.
Property At Issue.
The disposition Of property of the
estimated value of $4,000, including
residences at 80 Maple and 227
Spruce street, is at issue. There is a
vast mass Of documentary evidence
showing different transactions bear
ing upon it.

Minneapolis Engineer Employed
to Investigate Sewer Returns
to His Home.
DIDN'T LIKE SELECTION
OF EXPERT ACCOUNTANT
Writes Council a Letter Stating
He Will Not Accept Position
Offered Him.

C. T. Sandhoff, expert engineer, of
Minneapolis, has declined to qualify
to the position offered him by the city
council to check up the six-foot sewer,
ascertain whether it was built accord
ing to specifications and also to meas
ure other public improvements made
during the last year. Sandhoff re-
turned to his home yesterday, after
addressing a letter to the council de-
claring he would not qualify. He ar
rived in the city Tuesday to take up
the work.
Interested In Accounts.
Sandhoff was interested in the ap-
pointment of the expert accountants
to check up the books and records of
the various departments. He wanted
to see Melis-Pirie & Co. named for the
position and when they were not sue
cessful he stated he did not feel he
could accept the position of special
engineer to report on the sewer mat
ter
In committee meeting of the coun-
Gil ne advocated the appointment of
Mellis-Pirie Co. and endorsed them
highly. His attitude provoked warm
retort from Mayor Boylan, who indi-
Gated to him that he did not think it
necessary for anybody to come from
st. Paul to indicate to the city who
they should choose as accountants.
Selected By Council.
Sandhoff's appointment, however
was ratified by the council. His fail.
ure to act leaves the matter of check
ing up the new sewer improvement in
abeyance. Another engineer will prob
ably be named at the next meeting of
the council. -
