JSDC.E LOCHREN DENIES THE PE- TITION OF LAWTON, THE WHITE HEAR EDITOR. WAS JUROR ROGERS UNFAIR? THAT WAS THE CHIEF QUESTION INVOLVED IN THE ARGUMENT YESTERDAY. LAWTON WILL APPEAL AT ONCE. Asked for a Writ of Error to the Tribunal Next Above on the List. 'A. M. Lawton was fined $100 in the United States district court yester- day for sending obscene matter through the mails. Mr. Lawton mailed copies of the "Breeze," of which he was the publisher,' that contained mat- ter deemed obscene by the jury that tried him. S. L. Pierce, Mr. Lawton's counsel, moved for a new trial, but Judge Lochren overruled the motion. the defense asked for a "writ of error to the United States cir- cuit court of appeals, which Judge [Lochren allowed. In passing sentence on Mr. Lav/ton. Judge Lochren said that he enter- tained no doubt that Mr. Lawton had violated the law, and that he did not tee how the j-ury could have found otherwise. The court required Lawton to fur- nish bail in the sum of $500. One of Mr. Lawton's bondsmen, C. T. Cardi- gan, showed up, but J. A.

Mr. Lawton said, would also sign the bond, could not be found, and Mr. Lawton was committed to the cusfodj of a United States marshal until the other bondsman could be located. The alternative penalty imposed upon Mr. Lawton," in case he refftses to pay the fine, is confinement in the county jail until the fine-is paid, not to exceed a period of thirty.days. The application for a new trial prac- tically hinged upon the alleged unfair- ness of Juror Durkee Rogers, of Min- neapolis. The latter made a deposition which was used in combatting the mo- tion. It was, in effect, that, when drawn on the jury, Rogers had no prejudice or bias for or against the defendant; did not know the paper called the "Breeze," nor what it con- tained, until it was read in court. Rogers admitted that he said that if the printed ' matter in the Taylor case was the same as in the Lawton case and he had been on the jury, he would have voted for a con- viction in her case, if she had sent the papers through the mails. He ad- mitted, too, that he had characterized the Breeze articles, as soon as he heard them read, as indecent and unfit for publication, and, when he was sat- isfied that Lawton knowingly mailed them, he was ready to vote for a con- viction. He did say in the jury room that he thought such papers ought to be suppressed, but he did not say, nor was such the fact, that he was preju- diced from the first and was deter- mined to convict Lawton.

COMPTROLLER CUT THE FUND. THE COMMISSIONERS ALSO PRO- TEST AGAINST PROPOSED USE OF PHALEN PARK. NO PLACE FOR GARDEN TRUCK. Bids for Setting Up the Pump In Como Park Are All Rejected. At a meeting of the park board last evening- a communication was re- ceived from forty-six property owners in the immediate vicinity of Langford park requesting that the improve- ments proposed by the park board be commenced. The communication set forth that, with but little expense, the park could be made one of the most attractive in the city. What was need- ed was the park to be graded and the trees set out this fall. Supt. Nussbaumer explained that be had set apart In the last tax estimate for the park board last winter $3,500 for the improvement of Langford park, but the sum had been stricken out by the comptroller. There was no money, he said, to make the improvements and would be none until after the next tax estimate was made up. The board decided that, while noth- ing could be done this fall, an effort would be made to commence the work in the spring. The attention of the board was called by a resolution of the council to the necessity of using the streets around Rice park for market garden- ers during the balance of the season. President Wheelock said aside from the damage done to the park the standing of market gardeners on the streets was a detriment to property owners in the neighborhood. Commis- sioner Allen thought the board would be derelict in its duty if it allowed the parks in the city to be used as a vegetable stand. The communication was filed and the following passed as indicating the sense of the park board on the matter: Whereas, a communication has been re- ceived from the joint committee on public buildings requesting the board to name its objections to the use of the streets surround- ing Rice nark fwr market purposes. Resolved". That in the opinion of the board of park commissioners such a use of the streets surrounding this park is wholly in- admissable and that the city should authorize the use for market purposes of some other lo- cality where it would be less objectionable. The board therefore respectfully protests against the use of the streets adjacent to Rite park as an offense to all natrons of the park and an outrage o-n the occupants of resi- dences fronting upon it. Four bids were received for remov- ing and setting up in Comu park the 2,000,000-gallon pump now at McCar- ron's lake, which has been purchased by the board. The bids were as fol- lows: Roberts, Goss Co., $1,475; George R. Morton, $1,735; Smith Park Foundry company, $1,535; Minnesota Engine Works, $1,610. Supt. Nussbaumer stated that his estimate for doing the work was $713. and he thought it could be done for this sum. On motion the bids were rejected, and the superintendent of the board was authorized and directed to have the work done under his super- vision. The work will be commenced Sept. 15, but President Bement insists that the money, $2,000, be paid before the pump is removed. A bill from the water board was presented and ap- proved. Pay roles for men and teams for August amounting to $4,494.24 were ap- proved, as was also the pay roll for police and custodians for the same month amounting to $480. The bills allowed aggregated $529.32. CRAIG'S FRIENDS KICK. Why Wa* He Not Sent to Detroit This Year? Again, it seems, has Labor Commis- sioner Powers aroused the antagonism of certain elements in the labor world. The trouble is this time over the same factory inspectors, in spite of the fact apolis. who stood by him in the recent investigation, and who was sent to rep- resent the Minnesota department this summer at the Detroit convention of factory inspectores. in spite of the fact that Inspector Craig ranked highest in the examination which was held for places in the department at the open- ing of the last year. "Why was not Mr. Craig sent to rep- resent the department at Detroit," ask- ed a prominent leader in the ranks of organized labor yesterday. "When the examination showed. that he was emi- nently the best fitted to represent it on the basis of expert knowledge. I will tell you why. It is a bit of favor- itism. Mayo has stood by Powers and Powers proposes to stand by Mayo. They could not both go. At any rate, after the trouble the head of the bureau had getting the bill for his Nashville junket through Bob Dunn's office, he was not anxious to dare any further embroiling by presenting a bill for a second trip. Consequently he stayed at home, and his best man went. Mayo did not write the paper he read, but just trotted out a little book which Powers had written and spieled it off to the factory inspectors. although they did not want to hear it. and ac- cording to the press reports, insisted that they should not be bored by second hand stuff. So that Mr. Powers was really present so far as being able to voice his own particular notions was concerned. Of course, M\i'y6 was actu- ally there, and the 'le'j&ense bill will come in in Mayo's _na»ie, which was after all. the real consideration, while Craig was busy right around" home, ex- amining crank shafts and child labor. SHE TOOK MORPHINE. Mrs. B. L. Franklin Had a Close Call. The Rondo street police officers were notified yesterday morning that Mrs. B. L. Franklin, colored, living at 367 Western avenue north, had attempted suicide by taking poison. - Dr. Hahn was summoned to attend the woman, Official facsimile of Medal Awarded DR.

Dr. Brimhall wanted the patient removed to the city hospital, but Mrs. Franklin would not hear to this, and Dr. Hahn arrived in time te assume charge of the case. Mrs. Franjtlinl when found, was in a semi-conscious i condition, and at first said she had taken rough on rats, and afterwards explained that it was an overdose of ; quinine. Dr. Hahn, seen last night, said he had used the usual antidote for morphine poisoning, and that Mrs. Franklin was out of dan- ger. PASTIMES OF SOCIETY. Parties Are Happj in Spite of Hot Weather.

Andrew Holen, thirty-five years of age, and a cooper by trade, was run over by a freight train on the Northern Pacific near the Mississippi street bridge yesterday afternoon. Holen and a friend were crossing the tracks, and while watching an approaching train oil one track, did not notice the other coming in an opposite direction. Holsn had his left foot and leg half way to the knee crushed to a pulp. He was taken to the city hospital in the ambu- lance, where the injured member was amputated just below the knee. Holen is supposed to be a stranger in the city, and recently came from the West. The physicians 6ay he will recover. WOMEN WEKE SCARED. Joseph Gary 1» Charged With Dis- orderly Conduct. Joseph Gary, a repulsive looking indi- vidual, created considerable excitement in the vicinity of Pleasant avenue and Chestnut street, last evening. Several ladies who passed the corner mention- ed, were badly frightened by a man who grabbed them and muttered some unintelligible words. The shrieks of the women called Assessor Seng to the rescue, and the fellow ran. Shortly afterward Patrolman Markie, who had been notified of the actions of the fel- low, came across Gary acting in a suspicious manner in the vicinity. He was identified by Mr. Seng as the right man and was locked up on a charge of disorderly conduct. Gary says he is a brushmaker by trade, and denied the charge made against him. BIDS FOR CERTIFICATES. State Capitol CommiNHion Meets to Open Them, The members of the state capitol commission will meet this afternoon in their offices to open the bids recently advertised for on the first installment of $50,000 of the certificates of indebt- edness issued by the commission to complete the construction of the new state building. The whole amount, as authorized by the late legislature, was $100,000. Samples of the St. Cloud granite and Georgia marble, the stones selected for the new capitol, are being exhibited in the window of Tibbils' cigar store, Fourth and Robert streets.

The state board of equalization will meet at 2 o'clock this afternoon in the senate chamber, but it is probable that beyond electing a chairman and secretary, nothing willbe Gone untir> tomorrow. Itis considered likely that Jerome E. Cooley, of Duluth, will again be caosen. as chairman, and George M. Giltinan. of the auditor's office, will no doubt look after the detail of the clerical work. Nearly all the members of the board have reached the city ealready, and it is thought there will not be a vacant seat when the gafaxy gets together.? The chief matter to come before the board tfiis year, when oaly personal property values are to be taken 'up. will be the franchises in the cities, ovar which there has been no little difficulty in the local boards, and the adjustment of the assessments on mines and mining property*} which applies more par- ticularly to St. Louis county.

Relief Agent Hutchins received a telegram last evening from the police authorities at Kenyon, Minn., advisng him that Albert King, a youth who Mr. Hutchins was in search of, had been arrested there. The lad has been living with Mrs. Cameron at 64y 2 Central ave- nue, this city, but last week he grabbed what small change he could lay his hands on and skipped. Mr. Hutchins did not know last night whether the boy would be brought back or not. Vice President Lamont leaves the end of the week for New York, but sri-d last night that he expected to return again soon to St. Paul, and that he would probably spend most of the win- ter here. He will remain in New York until after the annual meeting of the stockholders of the road is held the last part of this month, and upon his re- turn West he will probably make a trip out over the road. Mr. Corbett, Mr. Mellen's secretary, who is also at the Aberdeen, has teen with the new president for a number of years and during the times he was connected with the Union Pacific and New Haven railway companies. ROADS WORRIED. Afraid of the Rate Demoralization No formal call has been issued for the meeting of the Western Passenger ass-ociation, which is to be held in this city in the course of the next fortnight, but. it will be forthcoming as soon as Chairman Caldwell has assurances from all of the leading Western lines that they will be able to be represented at a common date. The meeting will in all probability be one of the most important in the history of the associ- ation. Notwithstanding the efforts of the chairman and of the executive com- mittee, the t association has not been able to accomplish all that its friends have desired, chiefly because it has not been able to secure the membership it formally held. It is admitted on all sides, even by the roads, which have not been members of the organization since the promulgation of the supreme court decision, that the association has served the Western lines much by con- serving rates, and its friends are very hopeful that they will be able to ex- tend its powers after the close of the meeting. MILWAUKEE RESENTS IT. Mr. Conley- SayH That Road In N<»t Milking Trouble. General Passenger and Ticket Agent Con- ley, of the Milwaukee road, has the following to say regarding the cSarge which has been made that his line is responsible for the pros- ecution of some of the other Chicago lines for alleged rate cutting: "In the first place, there Is absolutely no truth In the statement that the Milwaukee company has anything whatever to do with the present investigations. The interests of that company and the Twin City jobbers are positively identical. The cream of the trade enjoyed by the St. Paul and Minneapolis ship- pers is obtained in the territory tributary to the two towns furnished by the Milwaukee company. That road has always fostered the interests of St. Paul and Minneapolis and has exerted itself to increase the business of their jobbers." To show the friendly feeling existing be- tween that company and the jobbers of the two towns, Mr. Conley furnishes the following letter addressed to him by the joint commit- tee, representing the general interests of the St. Paul and Minneapolis wholesalers on the subject of their attitude towards his com- pany: "Referring to your interview today, I beg to say that there should be on the part of no shipper in St. Paul or Minneapolis any but kindly feelings toward your line, the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railway. Your manner of handling the question of local tariffs out of Chicago a short time ago was decidedly in the interests of the Twin City jobbers. Any feeling that might have existed years ago should ee*rtalnly be withdrawn at the present time. The interests of your road and the jobbers of these two cities are identical, and so far as known you have in the past ass:sted us as far as in your power. We believe that this matter is> understood and appreciated by the jobbing interests of the two cities, but at any rate you are at liberty to make such use of this letter as you may deem advisa- ble." To show that the Milwaukee is not the only road that "stands in" with the Chicago ship- pers. Mr. Conley calls attention to the fol- lowing article in the Chicago Tribune of Sun- day: "A confidential circular has lately be?n sent to the sustaining members of the Na- tional Association of Merchants and Trave:- ers by General Secretary Tomlinson, which shows that the Santa Fe and Chicago Great Western are foremost among the roads ln- THE SAIXNT FAUXr GI,OBE: TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 1897, AVERSE TO GjUtyGE DISPOSITION OF PRESIDENT MEL- LEN, OF THE N. P., CONCERN- ING EMPLOYES. HE HAS NOW TAKEN CHARGE, MR. WINTER TURNING OVER THE OFFICE TO HIMYES- TERDAY. COL. LAMONT GOES EAST AGAIN, To Remain Until After the Stock- holders' Meeting the Latter Part of the Month. It may be predicted at this time with a reasonable amount of safety that President Mellen, the new head of the Northern Pacific, will find it unneces- sary to make any changes In any of the departments of that road as at present constituted. Mr. Mellen came to town yesterday morning over the Omaha, accompanied by his private secretary, P. Wilson Corbebt, and the office of the chief ex- ecutive of the big system was turned over to him without undue formality by retiring President Winter. When President Mellen had renewed the acquaintance with a number of the officials he retired to his office and was closeted for some time with Vice Presi- dent Lamont and Mr. Winter. "It is not my disposition to make any changes," he said to a reporter for the Globe, in response to a query. "Most of the present Northern Pacific officers are business acquaintances of mine, and I cannot see any reason for any change, unless it should develop in the future that the results to be expected are not being secured." President Mellen took occasion to stamp as being without foundation the story which had its origin in Chicago that the Chicago Great Western road was in the near future to be in some way consolidated with the Northern Pacific. Mr. Mellen is quartered at the Aberdeen. from the Went to Chicago. CHICAGO, Sept. 6.—The roads be- tween Chicago and St. Louis are fear- ful that, in a short time, rates from the West to Chicago will be in a state of demoralization. The action of the St. Louis roads in making low rates for the exposition in that city and tender- ing these low rates to their Western connections as basing rates, will make it possible for them to make low rates through St. Louis to the East and create an inequality against the Chi- cago rate. To meet this the Chicago roads will be compelled to lower their rates and this they are not all anxious to do. It is likely that the meeting of the Western Passenger asociation, which is to be held in the near future, will take some action In the msJter by which the necessity of reducing the rates may be avoided. Some of the roads which have made the low rates to St. Louis are Chicago roads, as well, but they will make an effort to keep the low rate out of the Chicago market. It is anounced that the policy of the lowa Central road, which has been very conservative heretofore, will be altered from now on. Under the presi- dency of Russell Sage, the road did not show as much aggressiveness as the present management deems desirable, and it is said that the road will get after business from now on with as much energy as any of the larger West- ern roads.
