TURH 014 THE LIGHTFRANCHISE FOR THE ST. ANTHONY
WATER POWER COMPANYPRECIPITATES WAR,
ENDS IN DRAWN BATTLE.
MATTERI.All)OVER FOR ANOTHERWEEK-PAVING MATTERS
DISCUSSED.
FLAMES IN A GINSMITH'S STORE.
Firemen Sliow Their Heroism,
Working in the Expeetnncy ofExplosions.
The expected fight ln the city coun-cil last night over the ordinance grant-ing permission to the St. AnthonyWater Power company to operate agigantic electric plant, was waged fortwo hours by every alderman on thefloor.
President Snyder, Aid. Dickinson,Bradish, Miner, Loye and Fort arrayed
themselves on the side of the waterpower company, while Aid. Jennings,Schwartz, McAllister, Harvey andothers protested that an attempt wasbeing made to railroad the ordinancethrough without proper consideration.
After a long drawn out wrangle, inwhich personalities and ancient historywere indulged in without stint, thematter was referred to the committeeson ordinances and roads and bridges.
During the debate, Attorney Brownand Engineer De La Bevore, of heWater Power company, addressed thecouncil at length, declaring that the or-dinance granted them no special privi-leges.
City Attorney Simpson explained thatthe ordinance was general in charac-ter and granted the company the samerights as were now enjoyed by othercompanies. Mr. De La Bevore statedthat the situation was imperative andthat if the council was averse to per-mittinghis company to operate in Min-neapolis, they would be obliged to turntheir attention to St. Paul.
The majority of the aldermen, how-ever, thought that undue haste wascharacterizing the actions of the waterpower people, and that a delay of oneweek would not seriously embarrassthe enterprise.
The General Electric company wasgranted permission to make a numberof small extensions to their presentconduit system, although Aid. Randshied at the proposition.
The contract for paving Westernavenue from First avenue north to therailroad bjudge was awarded to B.Jackson ar his bid of 1.19 per squareyard, for Dcs Moines vitrified brick.
Permission was granted to the FallFestivities association to erect bandand reviewing stands for use duringencampment week.
The board of corrections and chari-ties recommended the awarding ofcontracts for mill"wood for the ensu-ing year as follows: Geo. W. Higgins,$1.24 per load. C. A. Smith Lumbercompany, 800 cords four foot wood at$1.50 per cord.
The resolution to appropriate $1,500from the contingent fund was lost.
HIS WIFE DIDN'T CONSULT HIM.
Got a Divorce, Bnt John Appeared
Not to Care."Ay laak to find out if Ay ben di-
voce," said John Sjogren yesterday, ashe came up to the clerk's desk. Hewalked in with his brother as he madethe request, and it took a long searchto find the ease in the indexes, owingto the fact that Sjogren had one wayto spell his name in English and threein Swedish, and got them all mixed up.At last the title was found and thenthe files in the case.
"Yes," answered the clerk, "you weredivorced all right. Was Kristina yourwife's name?"
"Yaas; Kristina heer name."The record showed that Kristina was
separated from John last June, actionhaving commenced in March. Sjogrensaid he had been up in the woods nearAshland? Wis., and had just got back.He heard he had been divorced and hadcome to find out about it.
The papers, including the complaint,were read to him in the simplest trans-lation, showing him that his wifecharged him with being a drunkardand being cruel and abusive to her;
that he had left home last Novemberand that she didn't know where he was;so she secured service of the suit pa-pers on him by advertising. He lis-tened quietly all through the readingand at its close said:
"That loks pretty bad, ain't it?""Did your wife know where you
went?" was asked the man."Yaas; she give lunch that day."Sjogren did not seem displeased at all
to know,that his wife had her divorce,and only insisted that he wanted a copyto carry in his pocket, but before he se-cured it his brother had led him out ofthe room.
FLAMES IN A GUN STORE.
Danger of Explosion Did Not Deterthe Firemen.
With an unnatural obstinacy, fire made adesperate effort to consume the three-storybrick building at 36 Washington avenuesouth, occupied by Harman J. Pyle, gunsmith,and the Electric Machinery company. Thework of destruction was cut short by thefire department after a two hours' fight. Thatthe loss was not large was due to the excel-lent generalship and hard and decisive workof the men. The total damage would notexceed $5,000.
While not great from the point of loss tothe concerns, the blaze was, without excep-tion, the most interesting with which the de-partment has had to contend for some time.This was due to the time spent in locating it,the difficulty in reaching it, and the obstruc-tions which combined to render flre-flghtingnothing short of heroism. In the early stageof the contest a report was circulated thata large quantity of powder was stored in thebuilding and a disastrous explosion was prob-able. Naturally such did not tend to givethe boys heart and energy. They recalled inmemory the McDonald fire with its death-dealing results, and the recollection was nota cheering one. But not one shirked hiswork.
The report probably had its origin from thefact that some powder was taken from therear of the building and removed to safequarters. It was found in the rear of thestore. A quantity was supposed to be Inthe front of the store but It could not bereached through the stifling and blindingsmoke. The arrival of Mr. Pyle served toset at rest all rumors. He located the smallkeg of the explosive and it was at once re-moved.
Another serious factor with which the de-partment had to contend was the impassablecondition of the streets. Close approach was

The fire wagons hadno near aproach except through the alley.Number 1Chemical was the only one directlyby the building.
The scene of the fire was the basement.Itls 120 feet in length and divided into threeseparate rooms by strong stone walls withiron doors thoroughly fire-proof. The Arewas first discovered by the smoke and analarm sent ln, but the blaze could not belocated. It was finally found In the middleroom of the basement. After considerablestrategy water was poured ln upon It and Itwas extinguished. The damage to the build-ing was slight. H. J. Pyle, who occupied thefront portion of the basement and the firstfloor, carried an expensive stock of athleticand sporting goods. The rear portion wasoccupied by the Electric Machinery companyand was stocked with electric motors andgoods. The damage done was chiefly dueto. smoke and water. The total loss was esti-mated at $5,000. It is fully covered by in-surance.
GIVE TRADESMEN A CHANCE.
They Are Interested. Too, in theSound Money Movement.
To the Editor of the Globe.Iremember some years ago while livingin
Chicago that telegraphic communication withthat city and one a few mileswest was broken, so that It was neces-sary to dispatch via New York, London, Paris,St. Petersburg, Cape of Good Hope, San Fran-cisco to reach the desired point, only a fewmiles away. This seems like my present case.Iam a Democrat (free trader necessarily), asolid money man, and wish to be brought intocommunication with men of like faith withmyself who live in Minneapolis, that my in-fluence may be Joined with theirs to help onthe movement concerted by the national Dem-ocratic party.
But to reach these men Iknow no betterway than to write to you, and ask you totell them that there are those in their citywho, although they are not Elijahs (lawyers),have not bowed their knees to the silverBaal, and that their number is greater thanthat of those the servant of the Lord hid ina cave.
You will see by the letter head Ipur-posely leave on that Iam not a lawyer. Now,Isee by what Iread in this morning'sGlobe that there was a meeting held in aJudge Ueland's office last night, and that thenames you publish are lawyers; and it re-minded me that on the occasion of the meet-ing convened by Mr. Lawler in St. Paul, Iwalked from the Merchants hotel to theMozart hall with a man who said that Ihadno business there; that it was nothing butthe work of a lot of corporation lawyers, gotup in the interests of their several corpora-tions. This caused me to keep my eyes open,and Inoticed that when it was resolved tochoose a committeeman from each congres-sional district, that the one for the Fifth(my own) was picked out and pushed throughby the attorney for the Twin City Railwaycompany.
Now, Mr. Editor, that did not faise me,because Ican see no reason why a cor-poration attorney should not be a patrioticcitizen, or why a lawyer cannot be an honestman.
Candidly, Icannot forget that of the menout of whose patriotism, valor, self-sacrificeand, in many cases death, came this- govern-ment, is it our privilege to do our best tosustain, the principal ones were lawyers;and if they determine to take this matterinto their hands entirely and carry it throughthemselves personally, Ishould make nofurther objection than to say Iwish themto be outspoken and say so, that men likemyself, plain,ordinary, young working trades-men may know we (although citizens of theUnited States in good standing) are notwanted. We shall know where we are, andbe furnished with the opportunity to tellthem we think they are making a mistake.For, although Ibelieve lawyers to be thesalt of the earth, Ifor one, do not wishto make a meal off salt. Ithink it possibleto have too much of a good thing, and Iwant to point out a danger that Ithinkthreatens a movement with which Iam inthe heartiest of sympathy, and for the suc-cess of which Iam willing to devote allthe time and means that Ican conscientiouslytake from my legitimate occupations.
So through you, Mr. Editor, Iwant tosay to the gentlemen managing the affairsof the national Democratic party in Min-neapolis, that the next time they call ameeting in the interest of the party, theyshall so advertise it that those livingin thecity who likewise have the party's interestsat heart may see it and attend.
Mr. Editor, Iwant to say Iam heart andsoul with the movement, that Ihave nomotive in writing you but to give help to,and save from mistake ln their first efforts,the men who are worthy of all honor as citi-zens and men, the result of whose work, Ibelieve, will be to name the next presidentof the United States. —

One of the last men to make for thefire escape on the fifth floor was theforeman, William Gray. He was seenon the landing a moment. He was fol-lowed by another man who was notrecognized. Men on the roof shoutedfor him to take hold of a wire whichthey had let down, but he either didnot hear or was too frightened to doanything. Flames suddenly shot upand drove the men on the roof back,and they then lost sight of the men be-low. When it shifted, the charred andnaked bodies of the two men were seenon the fire escape as the firemen playedthe hose into the buildinig. Anotherunknown appeared on the same fireescape above Gray's body. For an In-stant he gazed distractedly on thecrowd below. A sheet of flame sweptfrom the windows again and when theyfell back the dead body of the manwas lyingon the grating.
Four alarms were turned in and fora time It looked as if everything onthe block would burn. All traffic inthat section of the city was suspended,as the hose crossed not only the sur-face railways but the elevated as well.Eight or ten explosions added to theexcitement, but served a good purposeln aiding the Are department, as there-after the flames were more easily con-trolled. Individual losses were not defi-nitely known, and a total of $150,000 isestimated. Warren &Co.'s loss, as allothers, is total and is estimated at$25,000.
