WANT THE POLES REMOVED BTJT THE TELEPHONE COMPANY DEMUftS TO IT Orillnniice Dipec«l«« the Wires on Manhall Avenue to Be Place* l nder the (iniuiid Catwea a Long IHhcitNMion i" the Committee on Streets Solution to Be Sought Through v Conference. The ordinance directing the North- weetern Telephone company to place its wires underground on Ma;shall avenue from Fairview street to the river was considered by the committee on streets from the board of aldermen yesterday afternoon. After discussing the matter for a couple oi huurs the ordinance was referred to the alderman of the ward, who will hold a conference with the telephone company officials and en- deavor to arrive at some solution of the question which will be equitable to the company und the property own- eis. When the ordinance was taken up Aid. Murphy moved an adverse report on the ground that the poles if paintod would be an ornament to the street rather than an eye sore. He statTii that he had been over the ground and that only seven houses were on the street and for the distance of over half a mile the avenue was bordered by farm lands and lields of grain. F. W. Hoot, who represented the resi- dents on Marshall av«.nue, and also the property owners at the park, insisted that the telephone company remove the poles and wires. The company, he claimed, one year ago had promised the poles and wires should be removed be- fore June 1, IS9B. Now they refused to take any action. The avenue, he said, was the main driving street between Bt. Paul and Minneapolis. The width w;is 100 feet, the roadway being forty feet with twenty-two-foot boulevards on either side and eight foot side- walks. The property owners had de- cided to make the roadway twelve feet wider arid intended imiyoving 1 the street and boulevard. This could not be done while the company had poles in the 1-oulevard. Since the litigation | in Minneapolis, in which the courts had , held that telephone pole 3 could be i maintained on post routes, the com- pany had weakened on its promise to remove the poles. The only recourse Kft for the property owners was to have the ordinance passed which would make the company put the wires un- derground. He suggested that the poiefl anu lines might be put in an j alley or the line continued out Selby j avenue. Aid. Bloomquist was of the opinion that it was not right to go out five | miles from the business center and j order the wires put underground, while | down town poles were in all the Btreets. He had also been over the avenue and counted nine houses on the north side of the street, the balance of the avenue from Cleveland avenue west was farm lands and grain fields. Manager Freedy, of the telephone company, denied that he had promised to remove the poles on the avenue by June 1, 1898. Mr. Root maintained that he had made such an agreement, and j President Copeland was called in to j settle the question. Mr. Copeland only j had an impression of the meeting held a year ago, and that was as Mr. Root had contended. Manager Freedy and Superintendent I TVainnian both stated that it was not : advisable to put the poles ln the alley, they would practically prevent trav- el through it. Mr. Wainman, however, i vas willing to make any arrangement ] that would not disarrange the system. | The line could not. he said, be "placed i on Selby avenue, owing to the trouble caused by the street railway feed wires ! and thp going under ground was out j of the question, owing to the cost. He agieed to consult with Aid. Shepard and the other property owners, and the ordinance was laid over until the next rrr-etirg of the committee. The resolution introduced by Aid. | Bantz, providing that the pay "of the street sweepers should not be less than $1.50 per day, was referred to the city attorney and the board of public works with the instructions to have a report Red Cherries, S?. n .!f! .... 51,25 Pastry Gaods, feawysj , . ovens.

Seventh and Broadway. ready at the next meeting of the com- mittee. Aid. Sanborn said it was useless to discuss the matter, as the street sweep- ers had entered into a contract with the city to do the work, and there was no legal way by which the city could, in the face of the contracts with the men, pay them at the rate of $1.50 per day. Aid. Murnhy said at the time the contracts were made with the men wages were lower and the necessaries of life cost less than now. A number of the men were working ten hours a day for less than $1 a day, and they were also required to purchase two suits of the white uniforms worn, at a ci»st of $2 per suit. The men employed by the city on the street force worked but eight hours each day and were paid $1.50 for their labor. A man with a family could not afford to work for $1 per day, and, as many of the street sweepers have wives and children, something should be done for them. Aid. Bloomquist said he had inves- tigated the matter and learned that some of the men matte only 96 cents per day. The trouble was that they took the contracts too cheap. He felt sorry for them, but saw no way they could be helped, unless the corporation at- torney should give an opinion that the contracts could be annulled and the men paid as suggested by the resolu- tion of Mr. Bantz.

PAUL GLOBE FRIDAY IS LIFE OR DEATH TO THEM ASSEMBLY COMMITTEE WRES- TLING WITH DOG QUESTION System of Licensing Animals That Has Been In Operation Daring; the lust Four Years Admitted a Failure Information as to How the Uucslliiii Is Dealt With Else- where to Be Obttiined. The dog license question was dis- cussed for a couple of hours by and before the assembly committee on streets last evening. It was pretty clearly understood when the commit- I tee adjourned that there would be no ! action taken, at least this season, for I the annual dog catch. The committee i adjourned for one week to await infor- ! niation and data to be furnished by William Ely Bramhall as to the plan ipursued in Eastern cities, by which the I licensing, capture and disposition of dogs is turned over to the humane so- I cieties. Present at the meeting last I night were Assemblymen Albrecht, Warner, Craig and Benson, .Mayor Kie- i fer, F. B. Doran, Chief Goss, Health ! Commissioner Stone, John A.Moak and i William ElyBramhall, representing the Humane society. The matter came before the commit- tee on the resolution authorizing the mayor to appoint six dog catchers at $50 per month and five men with teams ! and wagons at $3 per day to collect j licenses and gather in the unlicensed : canines. Assemblyman Albrecht said that the j system in operation for the past few \u25a0 years had been practically a failure. In 1896 there had been 2,236 licenses issued, and the total receipts amounted j to $4,635, which amount was greater | than last year, when 1,250 dog licenses I had been Issued and the receipts j amounted to $3,328. He further stated j that there were about 35,000 dogs in j the city, and, if this was correct, it Avas evident that a large number es- caped not only the tax, but the dog catchers. Former Mayor Doran was called on to give his experience, and also to make such suggestions as he might wish to make on the question. Mr. Doran was j of the opinion that the licensing of fewer and the destruction of more dogs I would be better for the city. He had I | seen or heard it stated that the more ! dogs in a city or locality, the less civ- I ilization. Judged from this standpoint, St. Paul did not rank very high. His experience had been that, under the : dog catcher system as operated be- j fore he took charge of the city affairs, there had been considerable fraud. The | catchers sold animals and offered to pass by dogs, the owners of which would pay them 50 cents or more. When he assumed the office of mayor In 189G he paid particular attention to the class of men appointed as dog catchers and the police assisted in the census, the result being that a greater revenue was collected that year than ever before. In 1897 the revenue was considerably less. He favored the po- lice taking a census of the dogs and then if the city had the right to levy a tax having the city clerk, from the census taken, notify the owners or keepers to come in and pay the license. If they did not, then take out a war- rant and fine them. The Minneapolis plan the former mayor did not think was the correct one, as the catcher there was paid a percentage on the number of dogs destroyed, and th° temptation was to make the fee rather than the city should make the license His father had often told him when the question of a man's honesty came up for discussion that if the man was honest it was best to keep him so. He thought this would also apply to police officers, and especially if they were in- terested in the dog-catching business. Assemblyman Benson brought out the fact that under the ordinance passed last year the police were re- quired to make a dog census. Mayor Kiefer being called on said his idea was to increase the revenue and get rid of the worthless dogs. His plan would be to have the police make a census of the dogs, return the lists to the city clerk and have that official notify the owners to come in and pay the license. If this was not done, send out the dog catchers and bring the unlicensed animals to a pound, where they cauld be disposed of. By this plan, his honor said, the city would realize a handsome sum and at the same time the city would be purified. Assistant Corporation Attorney Tay- lor informed the committee that under the charter the council was only given authority to prevent the running at large of dogs and only such dogs as run at large could be either taxed or de- stroyed. All ordinances which the council might pass could only go this far. Chief Goss said that as soon as the decision of the municipal court in tho Spink case had been rendered last year It was impossible for the dog catchers to collect enough licenses to pay the j expenses. The decision was that only I dogs running at large could be tixed oi | taken in charge by the dog catchers, I and that a dog on the street with )t« j owner or keeper did not come within the definition of running at large Th* proper plan. Chief Goes said, was that in operation in Minneapolis. wher= there was one dog catcher the year around ar.d about $10 was paid 'into the city each year. This plan, how- I ever, could not be adopted here, owing I to the limited power the charter gay» i thp council William Ely Bramhall said "hero was ino doubt that under the present charter | the council had not the power to tax ! Stage which were not running at large Is either could does be captured and killed unless they were running at large. The people were aware of this and for thi3 reason the revenue from licenses had fallen off. The catchin"- amd disposing of dos?s in St. Paul was inhuman. Men were appointed do:? | catchers for political reasons only, and the methods employed by them in catching and disposing of "the animals had been of the greatest cruelty In ; ether cities the licensing, capturing j and disposition of dog 3 was turned | over to the humane societies, and in I cities where this had b;en inaugurated I the societies had collected more money than under the police and dog catcher system. The revenue from the licenses had been turned over to the s-cieties on the ground that they were benefactors to the cities amd localities. If this could be done under the charter the St Paul society would take charge of the work here. At any raite the next leg- islature would be asked to pass a gen- eral law on this line covering all cities. He did not believe there were 35 000 U £ \ l ? n J* L Pau1 ' and thought about 6,000 yould be nearer the number. / A large num- ber of dogs had been taken to the Klondike, a;nd most of these were the worthless ones. He had written to a number of Eastern cities and expected within a week to secure copies of the ordinances under which the do~ li- censes were issued and the work done In case the city had the right to di- vert its revenue and place the matter in the halnds of the Humane society th<* organization would be ask»d to hold it in St. Paul. There would not be any money In it for the first year or so for the society, but it would be a much bet- ter plan than the one operated here for the past several years. What the so- ciety wanted was not so much the reve nue as to have the dog 3 gathered and disposed of in a humane mainner Health Commissioner Stone thought the discussion had been for the future rather than the present. There were a large number of worthless and dan- gerous dogs in the city. He favored one man being appointed and paid on the percentage plan, and the city would soon be rid of a lot of worthless curs. The method of catching could be prescribed by the Humane society and the dogs could be disposed of elth- k v drowning or carbonic gas could be used at a small expense. The dog catcher should not be limited to*three months, but be employed the fun year. Thie, if done at once, would give the city a good revenue and a benefit far above the cost. The health depart- ment had made no report as to rabies or cases where people had been bitten. There was no question, however, but there was a large amount of the dis- ease In the city and many persons had been bitten. Dogs were more liable to become rabid In the winter than in the summer. He favored a higher license for female than male dogs. Assemblyman Albrecht thought the people should be advised that under the law only dogs which were allowed to run at large required a license, as the city clerk had informed him about 100 persons had paid for dog licenses this year. The committee adjourned to Friday evening, July 22, with the understand- ing that at that time Mr. Bramhall would have the ordinances from East- ern cities. In the meantime the cor- poration attorney will loook up the question as to whether an ordinance allowing the Humane society to taJte charge of the licensing of dogs and keeping the revenue so derived would be possible under the charter. | , HOLD OUT ON THE JUDGES COUNTY COMMISSIONERS PLAN A LITTLE SAVING Claim tlie Law of IBHS Is tlnconstl- tationnl, and Tliat the Members of the District Conrt Bench Have Been Receiving $125 a Mouth "Which the County Should Hot Pay Without a Test. The board of county commissioners at a meeting held yesterday considered the subject of the tax levy budget for j the county. It was decided among | other things that the budget could be cut down some $9,000, not paying the judges of the district court this amount from the county funds. Accordingly the following resolution, introduced by Commissioner Moritz, was approved by a vote of all the members with the ex- ception of Commissioner McCarron, who was absent: Resolved, That the county auditor b?, and Is hereby, instructed not to issue any more warrants from and after July 15, 1898, to the Judges of the ' -ttict court of the Second ju- dicial district, as. we are informed the law is unconstitutional. Since the legislature passed a law in 1885 the judges of the district court in this judicial district have been drawing $125 per month from the coun- ty in addition to the $3,500 from the state. Commissioner Moritz stated that he had been informed that the law cf 18S5 was unconstitutional and for this rea- son the resolution had been pasaed. The result would be that if the j"ulg>s warn- ed to get the additional $125 from the county they would have to test the law. The figures for the tax levy were not completed and will be taken up at an adjourned meeting to be held Mon- day. County Auditor Sullivan, how- ever, stated that the amount would be practically the same as the levy for last year. $225,000 in round numbers. The board decided to refund $50,000 in bonds which will come due Sept. 1 this year. The amount allowed for the city hall and court hou?e fund was Increased to $19,500, which allows $3,500 for the new elevators In the court house. RAILROAD MAN'S MONEY. i:t«-ai>os From. His Pocket- ami He Thinks He Wan Robhed. Timothy Dolan, claiming to be a S3C- tion boss in the employ of the Northern Pacific railroad company, complained to the police yesterday afternoon that he had been robbed- of $65 in a saloon on Sibley street, near 'Fourth. Dolan claimed the money was taken from his pocket, by a hotel runner, with whom he was drinking. .According to the railroad man's story to Chief Schweitzer, he came to the city yesterday to oo'lcot his wages He said he met ths hotel runner on th- street, formed an acquaintance with the man and asked him to have som« refreshments. Dolan said the runner went with him to get his time check cashed, when they returned to the sa- loon and had more refreshments. Do- lan said he had his money in a vest pocket, but that when he left the sa- loon it was missing. He said the hotel runner was the only person with him after his arrival in the city, and insist- ed that the runner picked his pocket. Mr. Dolan tried to get Detective Wells to find the county attorney, but after two hours' search for Mr. Zoll- rnan with the detective concluded he would be more successful In taking care of the case himself, and later placed the alleged facts before Mr. Zollman in person. It was then too 'a'e to secure a warrant, but Mr. Zollman I says if upon further investigation to- day he finds facts to corroborate Do- lan's story he will have the hotel run- ner arrested. AspiPtar>t County Attorney Zollman says Mr. Dolan criticled the detctive's manner of investigating the case, claiming he showed little disposition to pet to the bottom of the alleged rob- bery.

PUT THE BLAME ON OMAHA MINNESOTA'S DAIRY EXHIBIT HAD TO BE SOLD The Exposition Authorities, It la Said, Hadn't Made Timely Ar- rangements fotr This Product— - Was Kept Here Till Its Scoring Qualities Were Impaired Now Offered (or Sale. The Minnesota dairy exhibit for the Omaha exposition, which has been in cold storage In St. Paul for two months waiting to be shipped to Omaha, is now being sold through a local commission house. Those who have visited the Omaha exposition from Minnesota have wondered at the absence of Minneso- ta's dairy exhibit, about which so much had been said. As a matter of facj., it has been in cold storage on Third street since the first Installment was received in St. Paul for shipment. It is a matter of criticism among those who have known about it that, at the last moment, after entries were sent in from all dairying sections of the state, that the plans of the com- mission to semi from Minnesota a prize- winning exhibition of dairy products to the Omaha exposition should have fallen through. It is claimed by the creamery men that the fault lies whol- ly with the superintendent of the dairy department of the Omaha exposition, who was so long providing suitable quarters for the dairy exhibit that the Minnesota commissioners were com- pelled to dispose of the exhibit in the manner named above. Creamery men and those who sent In exhibits are all up in arms over the turn matters have taken. Great care was exercised by the standard cream- eries of the state In preparing prize exhibits of their products, and they are greatly incensed at the exposition authorities or whoever is to blame for their delay In providing space for the Minnesota display. It has been stated that the commission was somewhat to blame for not taking a more aggressive stand in the matter, and it has also been said that the railroads had re- fused to furnish adequate refrigerator facilities for shipping the butter to Omaha. Commissioner R. A.Kirk,of this city, was seen relative to the matter yo?- --terdtay and scouted the idea of any neglect on the part of the commission, and stated that the Omaha people were wholly to blame for the delay. "The superintendent of the dairy department of the Omaha exposition had been very slow in getting things fixed up for the reception of butter and dairy products from all -states. Minnesota had gone ahead and prepared a prize exhibit and in order to save the price of the butter to the exhibitors they had been compelled to sell it, and also because by remaining in cold storage two months it had lost its scoring quali- ties, to a large extent. Mr. Kirk added that since the order to sell the ex- hibit was given, advices had been re- ceived from the superintendent at Omaha that he was ready to receive the Minnesota exhibit, and had proper facilities at hand for the preservation both of the tone and body of the but- ter. This places the state commissioners in a rather peculiar corner. The first exhibit was selected with the greatest care, and, although it was the original intention to replenish the exhibit once a month, it will doubtless result in dis- couraging the farmers and creamery men from giving the matter the atten- tion which they did the first exhibit. However, the commissioners have giv- en it out that they stand ready to pay all freight on butter from here to the exposition, and will do everything in their power to further the interests of the butter manufacturers of the state. They have shipped the large refriger- ator which was manufactured by the Bohn Manufacturing company, of St. Paul, to Omaha. On account of the delay, arrangements had just about been completed for the sale of the big ice box to outside parties, but this, hap. pily, was averted by the call sent out j for exhibits by the superintendent of j the Omaha dairy department, received i in this city Wednesday. The patent ammonia fre?zing machine, which was> manufactured foi the commission to keep the temperature of the ice box at a proper point, has been sold, but this can be easily replaced. The call from the superintendent of the dairy department at Omaha came like a ray of sunshine. There were all kinds of dissatisfaction even in local creamr-ry .circles, and the commission- ers have b^en flooded with communi- cations asking about the exhibit, both from people interested in the display and from outside points. Nothing short of a bombardment of Omaha by a regiment of buttermakers would have resulted, if the Omaha authorities had not recovered from their trance. Minnesota will not be placed at a disadvantage in this matter, as none of the other dairy states have put their exhibits in place as yet, because of the same reasons which precluded Min- nesota entering her exhibit during the opening days of the show. Through the courtesy of J. S. Moody, of the Minnesota Butter & Cheese com- pany, the butter for the first exhibit has been preserved in the refrigerators of the Third street establishment, and are now being sold and the proceeds re- mitted to the exhibitors. DEDUCTED THE FINES. D. W. Moore Suffer* Becanse He Hasn't Carried Out His Contract. The committee on claims from the board of aldermen had among other bills before It yesterday that of D. W. Moore, for $158.32 for the collection and removal of garbage in the Seventh ward during Jiine. The origiral amount of the bill had be a n reduced $22 by fines imposed by Health Commissioner Stone, and a letter accompanied the claim from tha health commissioner suggesting that, as the ordinance had not been complied with, the contract be taken away from Moore, Bondsmen for 'Moore, who had given ths city a bond in the sum oC $2.0i0. were will- Ing to take the contract and finish It rattier than have the contract annulled. Assistant Corporation Attorney Taylor infolded the committee that this could not b?*^one ex- cept Moore would assign the contract to the bondsmen. In order to allow the bondsmen, William Smith and Albert E. Brennan, an opportunity to reason with Moore along fhia line, no action was taken by the committee further than to approve the June bill of Moore's with the fines deducted. Charms of Comtr Park.

This young lady of but fourteen years Is very dexterous with her bow and played with a depth of tone which at once reached the sympathies of the audience. This evening will be Wagner night and selections from "Tannhauser," "Lohengrin" and other operas will be given. The promise of a programme, containing three or four selections from tho work of this great com- poser will doubtless interest many lovers of music.

WANT THE POLES REMOVED

BTJT THE TELEPHONE COMPANY

DEMUftS TO IT

Orillnniice Dipec«l«« the Wires on

Manhall Avenue to Be Place*lnder the (iniuiid Catwea a Long

IHhcitNMion i" the Committee on

Streets Solution to Be Sought

Through v Conference.

The ordinance directing the North-

weetern Telephone company to place itswires underground on Ma;shall avenuefrom Fairview street to the river wasconsidered by the committee on streetsfrom the board of aldermen yesterday

afternoon. After discussing the matterfor a couple oi huurs the ordinance wasreferred to the alderman of the ward,who will hold a conference with thetelephone company officials and en-deavor to arrive at some solution ofthe question which will be equitableto the company und the property own-eis.

When the ordinance was taken upAid. Murphy moved an adverse reporton the ground that the poles ifpaintodwould be an ornament to the streetrather than an eye sore. He statTiithat he had been over the ground andthat only seven houses were on thestreet and for the distance of over halfa mile the avenue was bordered byfarm lands and lields of grain.

F. W. Hoot, who represented the resi-dents on Marshall av«.nue, and also theproperty owners at the park, insistedthat the telephone company remove thepoles and wires. The company, heclaimed, one year ago had promised thepoles and wires should be removed be-fore June 1, IS9B. Now they refused totake any action. The avenue, he said,was the main driving street betweenBt. Paul and Minneapolis. The widthw;is 100 feet, the roadway being fortyfeet with twenty-two-foot boulevardson either side and eight foot side-walks. The property owners had de-cided to make the roadway twelve feetwider arid intended imiyoving1 thestreet and boulevard. This could not

be done while the company had polesin the 1-oulevard. Since the litigation|in Minneapolis, in which the courts had ,held that telephone pole 3 could be imaintained on post routes, the com-pany had weakened on its promise toremove the poles. The only recourseKft for the property owners was tohave the ordinance passed which wouldmake the company put the wires un-derground. He suggested that thepoiefl anu lines might be put in an jalley or the line continued out Selby javenue.

Aid. Bloomquist was of the opinionthat it was not right to go out five |miles from the business center and jorder the wires put underground, while |down town poles were in all theBtreets. He had also been over theavenue and counted nine houses on thenorth side of the street, the balanceof the avenue from Cleveland avenuewest was farm lands and grain fields.

Manager Freedy, of the telephonecompany, denied that he had promisedto remove the poles on the avenue byJune 1, 1898. Mr.Root maintained thathe had made such an agreement, and jPresident Copeland was called in to jsettle the question. Mr. Copeland only jhad an impression of the meeting helda year ago, and that was as Mr. Roothad contended.

Manager Freedy and Superintendent ITVainnian both stated that it was not :advisable to put the poles ln the alley,a« they would practically prevent trav-el through it. Mr. Wainman, however, ivas willingto make any arrangement ]that would not disarrange the system. |The line could not. he said, be "placed ion Selby avenue, owing to the troublecaused by the street railway feed wires !and thp going under ground was out jof the question, owing to the cost. Heagieed to consult with Aid. Shepardand the other property owners, and theordinance was laid over until the nextrrr-etirg of the committee.

The resolution introduced by Aid. |Bantz, providing that the pay "of thestreet sweepers should not be less than$1.50 per day, was referred to the cityattorney and the board of public workswith the instructions to have a report

ready at the next meeting of the com-mittee.

Aid. Sanborn said it was useless todiscuss the matter, as the street sweep-ers had entered into a contract withthe city to do the work, and there wasno legal way by which the city could,in the face of the contracts with themen, pay them at the rate of $1.50 perday.

Aid. Murnhy said at the time thecontracts were made with the menwages were lower and the necessariesof life cost less than now. A numberof the men were working ten hours aday for less than $1 a day, and theywere also required to purchase twosuits of the white uniforms worn, at aci»st of $2 per suit. The men employedby the city on the street force workedbut eight hours each day and were paid$1.50 for their labor. A man with afamily could not afford to work for $1per day, and, as many of the streetsweepers have wives and children,something should be done for them.Aid. Bloomquist said he had inves-tigated the matter and learned thatsome of the men matte only 96 cents perday. The trouble was that they tookthe contracts too cheap. He felt sorryfor them, but saw no way they couldbe helped, unless the corporation at-torney should give an opinion that thecontracts could be annulled and themen paid as suggested by the resolu-tion of Mr.Bantz.

ASSEMBLY COMMITTEE WRES-

TLING WITH DOG QUESTION

System of Licensing Animals ThatHas Been In Operation Daring;

the lust Four Years Admitted aFailure Information as to Howthe Uucslliiii Is Dealt With Else-

where to Be Obttiined.

The dog license question was dis-cussed for a couple of hours by andbefore the assembly committee onstreets last evening. It was prettyclearly understood when the commit-

Itee adjourned that there would be no!action taken, at least this season, forIthe annual dog catch. The committeei adjourned for one week to await infor-! niation and data to be furnished by

William Ely Bramhall as to the planipursued in Eastern cities, by which theIlicensing, capture and disposition of

dogs is turned over to the humane so-I cieties. Present at the meeting lastI night were Assemblymen Albrecht,

Warner, Craig and Benson, .Mayor Kie-i

fer, F. B. Doran, Chief Goss, Health! Commissioner Stone, John A.Moak andi William ElyBramhall, representing theHumane society.

The matter came before the commit-tee on the resolution authorizing themayor to appoint six dog catchers at$50 per month and five men with teams

!and wagons at $3 per day to collectj licenses and gather in the unlicensed:canines.

Assemblyman Albrecht said that thej system in operation for the past few

\u25a0 years had been practically a failure.In 1896 there had been 2,236 licensesissued, and the total receipts amounted

j to $4,635, which amount was greater| than last year, when 1,250 dog licensesIhad been Issued and the receiptsj amounted to $3,328. He further statedj that there were about 35,000 dogs inj the city, and, if this was correct, it

Avas evident that a large number es-caped not only the tax, but the dogcatchers.

Former Mayor Doran was called on togive his experience, and also to makesuch suggestions as he might wish tomake on the question. Mr.Doran was

j of the opinion that the licensing offewer and the destruction of more dogs

Iwould be better for the city. He had I| seen or heard it stated that the more!dogs in a city or locality, the less civ-Iilization. Judged from this standpoint,

St. Paul did not rank very high. Hisexperience had been that, under the:dog catcher system as operated be-j fore he took charge of the city affairs,there had been considerable fraud. The| catchers sold animals and offered topass by dogs, the owners of whichwould pay them 50 cents or more.

When he assumed the office of mayorIn 189G he paid particular attention tothe class of men appointed as dogcatchers and the police assisted in thecensus, the result being that a greaterrevenue was collected that year thanever before. In 1897 the revenue wasconsiderably less. He favored the po-lice taking a census of the dogs andthen if the city had the right to levya tax having the city clerk, from thecensus taken, notify the owners orkeepers to come in and pay the license.If they did not, then take out a war-rant and fine them. The Minneapolisplan the former mayor did not thinkwas the correct one, as the catcherthere was paid a percentage on thenumber of dogs destroyed, and th°temptation was to make the fee ratherthan the city should make the licenseHis father had often told him whenthe question of a man's honesty cameup for discussion that if the man washonest it was best to keep him so. Hethought this would also apply to policeofficers, and especially if they were in-terested in the dog-catching business.

Assemblyman Benson brought outthe fact that under the ordinancepassed last year the police were re-quired to make a dog census.

Mayor Kiefer being called on said hisidea was to increase the revenue andget rid of the worthless dogs. Hisplan would be to have the police makea census of the dogs, return the liststo the city clerk and have that officialnotify the owners to come in and paythe license. Ifthis was not done, sendout the dog catchers and bring theunlicensed animals to a pound, wherethey cauld be disposed of. By this plan,his honor said, the city would realizea handsome sum and at the same timethe city would be purified.

Assistant Corporation Attorney Tay-lor informed the committee that underthe charter the council was only givenauthority to prevent the running atlarge of dogs and only such dogs as runat large could be either taxed or de-stroyed. All ordinances which thecouncil might pass could only go thisfar.

Chief Goss said that as soon as thedecision of the municipal court in thoSpink case had been rendered last yearIt was impossible for the dog catchersto collect enough licenses to pay the

j expenses. The decision was that onlyIdogs running at large could be tixed oi| taken in charge by the dog catchers,Iand that a dog on the street with )t«j owner or keeper did not come withinthe definition of running at large Th*proper plan. Chief Goes said, was thatin operation in Minneapolis. wher=there was one dog catcher the yeararound ar.d about $10 was paid 'intothe city each year. This plan, how-Iever, could not be adopted here, owing

Ito the limited power the charter gay»ithp council

William Ely Bramhall said "hero wasino doubt that under the present charter| the council had not the power to tax! Stage which were not running at large

Iseither could does be captured andkilled unless they were running atlarge. The people were aware of thisand for thi3 reason the revenue fromlicenses had fallen off. The catchin"-amd disposing of dos?s in St. Paul wasinhuman. Men were appointed do:?| catchers for political reasons only, andthe methods employed by them incatching and disposing of "the animalshad been of the greatest cruelty In;ether cities the licensing, capturing

j and disposition of dog 3 was turned| over to the humane societies, and inIcities where this had b;en inauguratedI the societies had collected more money

than under the police and dog catchersystem. The revenue from the licenseshad been turned over to the s-cieties onthe ground that they were benefactorsto the cities amd localities. Ifthiscould be done under the charter the StPaul society would take charge of thework here. At any raite the next leg-islature would be asked to pass a gen-eral law on this line covering all cities.He did not believe there were 35 000U£g£\ l? nJ*L Pau1 ' and thoughtabout 6,000 yould be nearerthe number. / A large num-ber of dogs had been taken to theKlondike, a;nd most of these were theworthless ones. He had written to anumber of Eastern cities and expectedwithin a week to secure copies of theordinances under which the do~ li-censes were issued and the work doneIn case the city had the right to di-vert its revenue and place the matterin the halnds of the Humane society th<*organization would be ask»d to holdit in St. Paul. There would not be anymoney In it for the first year or so forthe society, but itwould be a much bet-ter plan than the one operated here forthe past several years. What the so-ciety wanted was not so much the revenue as to have the dog 3 gathered anddisposed of in a humane mainner

Health Commissioner Stone thoughtthe discussion had been for the futurerather than the present. There werea large number of worthless and dan-gerous dogs in the city. He favoredone man being appointed and paid onthe percentage plan, and the citywould soon be rid of a lot of worthlesscurs. The method of catching couldbe prescribed by the Humane societyand the dogs could be disposed of elth-kv drowning or carbonic gas could

be used at a small expense. The dogcatcher should not be limited to*threemonths, but be employed the fun year.Thie, if done at once, would give thecity a good revenue and a benefit farabove the cost. The health depart-ment had made no report as to rabiesor cases where people had been bitten.There was no question, however, butthere was a large amount of the dis-ease In the city and many persons hadbeen bitten. Dogs were more liable tobecome rabid In the winter than in thesummer. He favored a higher licensefor female than male dogs.

Assemblyman Albrecht thought thepeople should be advised that underthe law only dogs which were allowedto run at large required a license, asthe city clerk had informed him about100 persons had paid for dog licensesthis year.

The committee adjourned to Fridayevening, July 22, with the understand-ing that at that time Mr. Bramhallwould have the ordinances from East-ern cities. In the meantime the cor-poration attorney will loook up thequestion as to whether an ordinanceallowing the Humane society to taJtecharge of the licensing of dogs andkeeping the revenue so derived wouldbe possible under the charter. |

HOLD OUTON THE JUDGES

COUNTY COMMISSIONERS PLAN A

LITTLE SAVING

Claim tlie Law of IBHS Is tlnconstl-tationnl, and Tliat the Membersof the District Conrt Bench HaveBeen Receiving $125 a Mouth"Which the County Should HotPay Without a Test.

The board of county commissionersat a meeting held yesterday consideredthe subject of the tax levy budget for jthe county. It was decided among |other things that the budget could becut down some $9,000, not paying thejudges of the district court this amountfrom the county funds. Accordinglythe following resolution, introduced byCommissioner Moritz, was approved bya vote of all the members with the ex-ception of Commissioner McCarron,who was absent:

Resolved, That the county auditor b?, andIs hereby, instructed not to issue any morewarrants from and after July 15, 1898, to theJudges of the

'-ttict court of the Second ju-

dicial district, as. we are informed the lawis unconstitutional.Since the legislature passed a law in

1885 the judges of the district courtin this judicial district have beendrawing $125 per month from the coun-ty in addition to the $3,500 from thestate.

Commissioner Moritz stated that hehad been informed that the law cf 18S5was unconstitutional and for this rea-son the resolution had been pasaed. Theresult would be that ifthe j"ulg>s warn-ed to get the additional $125 from thecounty they would have to test the law.

The figures for the tax levy werenot completed and willbe taken up atan adjourned meeting to be held Mon-day. County Auditor Sullivan, how-ever, stated that the amount would bepractically the same as the levy forlast year. $225,000 in round numbers.

The board decided to refund $50,000in bonds which will come due Sept. 1this year.

The amount allowed for the city halland court hou?e fund was Increased to$19,500, which allows $3,500 for the newelevators In the court house.

Dolan said the runnerwent with him to get his time checkcashed, when they returned to the sa-loon and had more refreshments. Do-lan said he had his money in a vestpocket, but that when he left the sa-loon it was missing. He said the hotelrunner was the only person with himafter his arrival in the city, and insist-ed that the runner picked his pocket.

Mr. Dolan tried to get DetectiveWells to find the county attorney, butafter two hours' search for Mr. Zoll-rnan with the detective concluded hewould be more successful In takingcare of the case himself, and laterplaced the alleged facts before Mr.Zollman in person. It was then too 'a'eto secure a warrant, but Mr. Zollman Isays if upon further investigation to-day he finds facts to corroborate Do-lan's story he will have the hotel run-ner arrested.

PUT THE BLAME ON OMAHA

MINNESOTA'S DAIRY EXHIBIT

HAD TO BE SOLD

The Exposition Authorities, It laSaid, Hadn't Made Timely Ar-rangements fotr This Product—

-Was Kept Here Till Its Scoring

Qualities Were Impaired NowOffered (or Sale.

The Minnesota dairy exhibit for theOmaha exposition, which has been incold storage InSt. Paul for two monthswaiting to be shipped to Omaha, is nowbeing sold through a local commissionhouse. Those who have visited theOmaha exposition from Minnesota havewondered at the absence of Minneso-ta's dairy exhibit, about which so muchhad been said. As a matter of facj., ithas been in cold storage on Thirdstreetsince the first Installment was receivedin St. Paul for shipment.

It is a matter of criticism amongthose who have known about it that,at the last moment, after entries weresent in from all dairying sections ofthe state, that the plans of the com-mission to semi from Minnesota aprize-winning exhibition of dairy productsto the Omaha exposition should havefallen through. It is claimed by thecreamery men that the fault lies whol-ly with the superintendent of the dairydepartment of the Omaha exposition,who was so long providing suitablequarters for the dairy exhibit that theMinnesota commissioners were com-pelled to dispose of the exhibit in themanner named above.

Creamery men and those who sent Inexhibits are all up in arms over theturn matters have taken. Great carewas exercised by the standard cream-eries of the state In preparing prizeexhibits of their products, and theyare greatly incensed at the expositionauthorities or whoever is to blame fortheir delay In providing space for theMinnesota display. It has been statedthat the commission was somewhat toblame for not taking a more aggressivestand in the matter, and it has alsobeen said that the railroads had re-fused to furnish adequate refrigeratorfacilities for shipping the butter toOmaha.

Commissioner R. A.Kirk,of this city,was seen relative to the matter yo?---terdtay and scouted the idea of anyneglect on the part of the commission,and stated that the Omaha people werewholly to blame for the delay. "Thesuperintendent of the dairy departmentof the Omaha exposition had been veryslow in getting things fixed up for thereception of butter and dairy productsfrom all -states. Minnesota had goneahead and prepared a prize exhibitand in order to save the price of thebutter to the exhibitors they had beencompelled to sell it, and also becauseby remaining in cold storage twomonths it had lost its scoring quali-ties, to a large extent. Mr.Kirk addedthat since the order to sell the ex-hibit was given, advices had been re-ceived from the superintendent atOmaha that he was ready to receivethe Minnesota exhibit, and had properfacilities at hand for the preservationboth of the tone and body of the but-ter.

This places the state commissionersin a rather peculiar corner. The firstexhibit was selected with the greatestcare, and, although it was the originalintention to replenish the exhibit oncea month, it willdoubtless result in dis-couraging the farmers and creamerymen from giving the matter the atten-tion which they did the first exhibit.However, the commissioners have giv-en it out that they stand ready to payall freight on butter from here to theexposition, and will do everything intheir power to further the interests ofthe butter manufacturers of the state.They have shipped the large refriger-ator which was manufactured by theBohn Manufacturing company, of St.Paul, to Omaha. On account of thedelay, arrangements had just aboutbeen completed for the sale of the bigice box to outside parties, but this, hap.pily, was averted by the call sent out jfor exhibits by the superintendent of jthe Omaha dairy department, received iin this city Wednesday. The patentammonia fre?zing machine, which was>manufactured foi the commission tokeep the temperature of the ice box ata proper point, has been sold, but thiscan be easily replaced.

The call from the superintendent ofthe dairy department at Omaha camelike a ray of sunshine. There were allkinds of dissatisfaction even in localcreamr-ry .circles, and the commission-ers have b^en flooded with communi-cations asking about the exhibit, bothfrom people interested in the displayand from outside points. Nothingshort of a bombardment of Omaha bya regiment of buttermakers would haveresulted, if the Omaha authorities hadnot recovered from their trance.

Minnesota will not be placed at adisadvantage in this matter, as noneof the other dairy states have put theirexhibits in place as yet, because ofthe same reasons which precluded Min-nesota entering her exhibit during theopening days of the show.

Through the courtesy of J. S. Moody,of the Minnesota Butter & Cheese com-pany, the butter for the first exhibithas been preserved in the refrigeratorsof the Third street establishment, andare now being sold and the proceeds re-mitted to the exhibitors.

Hasn't Carried Out His Contract.The committee on claims from the board of

aldermen had among other bills before Ityesterday that of D. W. Moore, for $158.32for the collection and removal of garbage inthe Seventh ward during Jiine. The origiralamount of the bill had be an reduced $22 byfines imposed by Health Commissioner Stone,and a letter accompanied the claim from thahealth commissioner suggesting that, as theordinance had not been complied with, thecontract be taken away from Moore,

Bondsmen for 'Moore, who had given thscity a bond in the sum oC $2.0i0. were will-Ing to take the contract and finish It rattierthan have the contract annulled. AssistantCorporation Attorney Taylor infolded thecommittee that this could not b?*^one ex-cept Moore would assign the contract to thebondsmen. In order to allow the bondsmen,William Smith and Albert E. Brennan, anopportunity to reason with Moore along fhialine, no action was taken by the committeefurther than to approve the June bill ofMoore's with the fines deducted.
