Happenings at tlie Centers of News-Couunent on City Topics. THE LECAf- GRIND. Two Big Damage Suits on Trial-- To-Day isyecial Term. The Thompson-Pioneer Press libel suit progressed rapidly yesterday, the examina- tion of witnesses being considerably briefer than in any of the previous trials of the cases in which Thompson was defendaut. Judge Loehren expects to hear the case to- day despite the long special term calendar, and it is thought that the evidence will be all in by noon. Nothing new was devel- oped the testimony Doing substantially the same as in the former trials. The follow- in" witnesses were examined: James M. Williams, W. H. Lee, Gen. Logan, George R. Robinson, Byron Sutherland, Fred Rogers, John E. McLeod, Jeremiah Smith, \u25a0\\.~N. Reid, J. T. Robinson, Winthrop YdnnSTt Jerry Howe, David Bassett, S. W. Farnham. The deposition of J. A. Love- joy, who is unable to be present, was also read. A TEX THOUSAND DOLLAR DAMAGE suit is on trial before Judge Koon, it being an action brought by William Touhey against the executors of the C. C. Wash- burn estate. The complainant states that the plaintiff is 26 years old and •was a machinist in the employ of M. W. Glenn. Dec. 11 ho went with two other men to one of the Washburn mills for the purpose of setting up certain boilers and furnaces. A Ions:, heavy pipe known as a "breeching," to be used in conducting the Kinoke to the smokestack, was suspended near the roof. It was necessary for the de- fendant to work upon the breeching, and he climbed out upon it, relying upon its being safely tied. One of the ropes broke, and ho fell to the floor below, sustaining severe injuries to his spine, and nervous system, which have unfitted him for work since. A model of the building was shown to the jury, and the case is being very carefully tried. The suit of George W. Sherwood et al. vs. .1. W. Johnson was argued and given to the jury before Judge Koon in the morning. The jury returned a verdict in favor of the plaintiff forS6lß.lß. The plaintiff sought to recover 51,500 on a breach of contract, for failure to purchase certain cattle. MISCELLANEOUS. Judge Young yesterday had a compara- tively easy time of it. the entire business of his court being conprised in the dismissal of W. B. Chandler et al. vs. F. L. Morrill etal. Clarence A. Brown yesterday commenced suit against Frank Crowell to recover io-20 on a breach of contract for failure to pur- chase certain real estate. Ninety cases are on the special term cal- endar, and iliis will be a busy day in court. At leasi fifteen divorce suits that have been continued along trom time to tune are marked for trial. O. C.

A PLEASAST St'CCESS. warfare is not pleasant, nor is'it profitable." *** There is a little too much of the star- chamber business about the doings of the committees in charge of the exposition. They have probably adopted the motto of Stonewall j'ackson. "The secret of success is mystery," without any of his reasons. The exposition is a public affair in which all the people are interested, and there is little more than nonsense in these secret, mysterious sessions. Charles Moth won the athletic contest witli Mervin Thompson at the Theater Comique last night. He in fact won every point. The. first was two tests with a 120-pound dumb- bell, and then Moth manipulated a cask weighing 208 pounds as though it weighed but 25 pounds. Thompson conceded the cask act without an attempt. The wrestling inateh followed. Thompson won the first choice and took catch-ns-catch-can. It was a des- perate struggle and in point of merit was much superior to the Market hall contest. Moth won in the second fall. Gneeo-Roman style, in 4 minutes, finishing the contest. T. Shields of Canada is a new acquisition to the athletes of Minneapolis. He is a big, brawny fellow, and claims that he can de- feat the best of 'em in heavy-weight feats. He challenges any athlete to put the shot, throw the fifty six-pound weight, heavy or light hammers, wrestling or boxing, for from SSOO to Si,ooo a side. He says he means business, and is willing to meet any man and sign articles at once, and put up a forfeiture. Harvest Iloine Entertainment. The Mission band of the Church of Christ last evening gave a pleasing entertainment of musical and literary features in celebra- tion of the harvest home. The church,cor- ner of Portland avenue and Eleventh street, was decorated with the "fruits of the har- vest," in the shape of clusters of grapes, heaps of vegetables and sheaves of wheat, the prettiest feature, however, being the group of some thirty children who formed the Mission band. An interesting program was given, but its length precludes any ex- tended individual notice. It opened and closed with a chorus by the band and was composed as follows: Vocal duets, Misses Clara Holt and Anna Adams and Pearl and Anna Adams; instrumental polos, Misses Sylvia Mattison, Carrie Hazel- ton, Mabel Farrier, Inga Beebe, AlicePlum- mer. Kiltie Williams and Addie Lincoln; vocal solos and songs, Misses Sallie An- keny and Winnie Adams; recitations, Misses Edith Caiiy. Cora Siafter, Maggie Lowry, Bertha Atkinson, Lottie Covey, Ilattie Church, Ida Seeba, SaUio Aukeny, NVttie Church. Lydia Peterson, Lyda Beebe, Leta Major. Emma Ball, Edna Carly, Matilda Peterson and Alice Pluni- mer. The band, which had been trained by Mrs. Campbell and Mrs. Ankeny, had marched in from the class rooms and dur- ing the entertainment sat in a body upon the plattorm. A small admission fee had been charged and a neat little sum was re- alized. Picking: Directors. The exposition committee of eleven had its second meeting yesterday morning at the rooms of the Jobbers' association, and, as before, had the doors tightly sealed. This has been, all along, the most interest- ing phase of the movement —chat deep, dark and mysterious secrecy which is as- sumed at every opportunity. There are those who object to it, but their objections will end when they learn that the apparent mystery is only to increase interest. That is all. The committee met to select the names of twenty-live subscribers to be voted for, at the meeting of to-night week, for di- rectors for the first year. Some members of the committee regarded it as an instruc- tion of the meeting that some of the com- mittee should be directors, and acting upon this idea, the names of S. C. Gale, T. B. Janney, C. B. Heffelfinger, M. W. Glenn and E. S. Corser were decided upon in the beginning. Those of D. M. Gilmore, A. J. Blethen, W. M. Regan, W. E- stecle- Charles W. Johnson and William S. King were afterward nominated. These names Tlie Third Annual Trades and LaliorA^ciublr Ball. The annual reception and ball of the Trades and Labor assembly last evening at the Leland rink was a very pleasant suc- cess. At least 200 couples were present, to whom ample floor and excellent music by Thyle's orchestra proved irresistible. The arrangements for Hie reception and care of the guests were perfect, reflecting great credit upon the rink management and the committees in charge The organizations represented in the Trades and Labor as- sembly include the coopers', typographical, stonecutters', boilermakers', carpenters', bricklayers', machinists and railroad em- ployes unions, each of which was well represented. Dancing commenced with a grand inarch shortly before 10 o'clock, and the. following program was followed: Quadrille To Trades ami Labor Assembly Walt/.

Finally the committee adjourned to reassemble on Monday morning, by which time they expect to receive the blanks sent out on Wednesday. MIJiSEAPOLIS SPORTS. O. M. Farnham is a well-known youn? man of Minneapolis with extravagant and profligate habits. Without any lucrative occupation.he has always a plethoric pocket- book and evinces a disposition to illustiute the old axiom, "Afool and his money are soon parted. ' Recently, his father, 11. M. Farnhatn, Ins made good several heavy debts contracted by the reckless youth in divers and questionable ways. He bor- rowed from Judge E. S. Jones of the Ilen- nepin County Savings bank $1,000 on an abstract of property, valued at $10,000 and the property of his father. The loan was easily negotiated upon the strength of a note purporting to have been written by U. M. Farnhum. Other peculations of a like character have been unearthed, and the young man finds himself "in a peck of trouble," metaphorically.

There- fore I have watched quite minutely the progress and development ot the works, and in comparison 1 have, while visiting Eastern cities, examined very carefully the reservoir systems, and the result of my in- vestigations is such as to make me aii un- compromisiugadvocate of the great Jumbo pump. I think it is a world beater, and I honestly believe it can pump every day in Hie year 9,000.000 gallons of water. I was in Milwaukee when her pumps stave way. and I hope Minneapolis will not fool with an expensive reservoir and get into trouble as Milwaukee did. I think reservoirs are of value in a mountainous or hilly country, but they are failures on level or prairie cities. Mr. Fanning says the reservoir can be built for $150,000, but he does not give, 9i approximate, its capacity. For 8150,000 ! sve can build ten Jumbos, and only think of the volume of water they could throw. Perhaps it will be necessary to adopt steam | as ;t supplementary power, and that I see is j tho opinion of Engineer Waters. Do you snow 1 have unlimited faith in Mr. Waters? I believe he knows moia about hydraulic engineering than any of "em." * * Said a fuel dealer yesterday: "Many of j the coal dealers stand ready to re-establish I the old prices, and it will be done just as | soon as a few who have made all the trouble Will agree to act fairly, and will do as they ! agree, as well.

It is a new Odd Fellows' charm adopted at the last session of the sovereign grand lodge held in Balti- more last month, and is unique and artis- tic, and beautifully mounted. It bears the emblems of the order and of the highest decree —the crown, shield, crossed sword and shepherd's crook, all-seeing eye. the lamb, the lion, etc., and the words, "Pax ant Bellum" (peace or war) and "Justia Universalis" (universal justice.)

Nkw York, Oct. 23. —The Herald has the following details of a scene that oc- curred yesterday in the case of Banker Fish, brought here from state prison to testify in the Ferdinand Ward case: Mr. Fish ex- changed his prison cell for city hotel fare only to encounter more sorrow than Auburn brought him. While he was in the district attorney's office the corpse of his son, who recently died in Louisiana, reached the Grand Central depot for shipment to his former home in Connecticut for burial. One of the officers as gently as possible broke the news to the wretched father, whose face grew even paler and more drawn than before as he bowed hU» head in his hands and wept in a silence which was broken only by his sobs and moans. At last, in a broken voice, he said his grief was all the more intense because he could not look once more, and for the last time, upon tiie face of the dead son, so dear, so always dutiful and devoted. The train with the dead son had rumbled out of the depot on the wayto the burial place. The former bank presi- dent sank back into his chair with a faint, weary sieh. THE ST. PAUL DAILY GLOBE.

Indications Which Point to a Speedy Eestoration of Inland and Ocean Emigrant Eates. \u25a0 Booking Agents of the Pennsylvania Instructed Not to Issue any More Sate Orders. The Effect Such Orders and Advance- ments Will Have on Next Season's Immigration. Members of tlie Transcontinental As- sociation Arransins For a Meeting Soon. Advance in Xmigrant Inland Rates. Much interest was manifested in railroad circles yesterday upon the news that the Pennsylvania had countermanded its $1 emigrant rate. The information is of gen- eral interest and is one of the most impor- tant occurrences of receut date. As cmi- gration rates bear principally upon the rapid settling of the Northwest, the news throughout the country will be perhaps a little disappointing, but may be in the long run more favorable than disastrous to the Dakota and Northern Minnesota districts. Upon the subject, Emigration Agent A. E. Johnson speaks as follows: "All indications and advices denote a speedy restoration of emigration inland rates. The Pennsylvania has instructed its book agents drawing orders for their ac- count at the Si rate to stamp each order 'not good after Jau. 20, 18SG.' Notifica- tion has been given by the West Shore to its booking agents, although it has not been using the SI rate, but a rate bused on ?8 from New York to Chicago, to limit all orders after Oct. 22, srood to Dec. 31 of thjs year. Other trunk lines have taken some precau- tion to prevent any further issue of low- priced emigration orders. When the $1 emigration rate was established, it came in time to increase and stimulate the prepaid immigration business. The ocean steamship lines, particularly the German ones, broke out into war among themselves which resulted in a reduction in ocean rates to §10, and even inland and oaean reduc- tion were largely taken advantage of by ticket buyers and the result was a rush of emigration business, which began in March, and which taxed the more prominent steam- skip companies to their utmost carrying capacities, and the second quarter of this year brought in a much greater percentage than tlie same quarters of ISB4 and 1883. Emigration the third quarter has kept up remarkably well and THE GERMAN STEAMERS for October have averaged from 250 to 400 passengers on each trip. The advance in ocean rates will serve to check the arrivals somewhat. It is not likely that any con- siderable number of low-priced orders are outstanding, and as all were issued under a six mouth's limit, all emigrants holding or- ders must land before April 22 of ISBG, which is the date of the expiration of all the limits. Consequently the orders for a SI rate do not extend into next year's busi- ness proper, and the action of the Pennsyl- vania railroad company and other trunk lines bar any issue at low rates. The effect of the advance from the SI rate to a nomi- nal figure will have the effect on next year's business of bringing prepaid book business much later than usual, because intending purchasers will naturally wait, hoping for another break in rates. Nearly all wars on emigrant rates for the past ten years have begun in the winter season, and at a time when prepaid business was at its height. This is weli-known among ticket brokers, and they have come to expect these reduc- tions as a matter of course. The proba- bilities are that they will be disappointed in this the coming season, but, as before stated, they will wait as iong as possible. With the advraice ki ocean and iand rates, through emigration fares from European to Northwestern points more than double this season, the volume of emigration will be naturally enough reduced, but this loss will be more than compensated for by the promising future and the new era of pros- perity on which the Northwest is now en- tering. Notwithstanding the advance in rates a good immigration business may be expected." tives extend most hearty thanks to Mr. Warren for the courtesies extended them, and to Mr. Kneass for the able manner in which he carried out his part of the pro- gram. At Winnipeg the party was enter- tained by the Winnipeg Press club and cit- izens of Winnipeg, who joined in to mako their visit as pleasant as possible. A night was spent at Crookston and another at Devil's Lake city. Both of these towns show activity and have made rapid progress during the last year or two. Transcontinental Pool. Members of the Transcontinental associa- tion are arranging for a meeting in the near future and are now discussiug at which point to hold it. The places proposed are Chicago and Monterey. Cal., and which of these two places it shall be will be decided upon by vote. The chief and really the only point to be discussed is the refusal of the Southern Pacific to concede to the de- cision of the Transcontinental association at its meeting in St. Paul. The Burling- ton having given notice of withdrawal from the pool and the contract which the Santa Fe has made with the Southern Pacific, has placed matters in an awkward position, and unless some immediate action is taken an entire dissolution of the pool will result. "THE QUESTION OF RATE3 has a preat bearing on emigration, and I am free to say that I think we have this sea- son's exceptionally low ocean aud rail rates to thank tor at least 25 per cent of our emijpation for 18S5. As is well known emigration moves ia a given ratio. Certain causes here or in Europe stimulate orretard emigration, and it is a remarkable fact that during the past two years of depression in the United States, which usually and very naturally causes a decline in emigration, the arrivals isrom Germany have been heavier than at any time duriag the pre- ceding prosperous seasons, say of 18S0 and 1831. And we must look for the causes of this phenomenal and unusual condition to the other side, as the situation in America did not warrant the extraordinary large German emigration. Scandi- navian emigration has steadily declined since 1861, which was the pivotal year, but the prospects are that the decline has been checked this season, and that the next will witness a revival. The reasons for the continuous decrease in Scandinavian emigration have been the comparative prosperous times in Sweden, Norway and Denmark, and the relatively depressing times here. While at the mo- ment all advices and information tend to a material change, if the worse in Scandi- navia, certainly for the better here, and es- pecially in the Northwest. Two years ago this fall a very large percentage of those wko went home to Europe were dissatisfied emigrants returning to stay. Many others were uncertain how they could pass the approaching winter without privation to themselves or being a burden to their friends. Fortunately, there was consid- erable public and private work in the South for the winter, and there was BBGUIiAB STAMPEDE New York.

Buffalo, Oct. 23. —At a meeting of railroad freight managers here to-night, the west-bound tariff rates were raised on first- class merchandise to 25 cents per 100 pounds. This meets the advance recently made by the pool commission on freight traffic from Chicago to New York. Fast Freight Line Combination. Cleveland, Oct. 23.—1t is stated hare on good authority that the five Vanderbilt fast freight lines will soon be consolidated.

A Proposed Injustice. To the Editor of the Globe: I noticed in the last Tuesday evening proceedings of the city council, as pub- lished the following: The council ordered the board of public works to investigate and report on the * * condeming 1 a certain piece of land for a pub- lic park, bounded by Summit and Ramsey and the west line of property owned by Maurice Auerbach, and known as "Summit Avenue Lookout." This is a very surprising movement, and made without any reference to or the knowledge of Mr. Carpenter, the propri- etor of the premises. Mr. Carpenter might be induced to sell the property, on a fair valuation as property-value now ranges in the city, but he has never been approached on the subject. It is too late in the day to condemn this property for public «ses since the costly im- provements that have been put upon it. There was. before these improvements were made, a time when this property might have been had for a public park comparatively inexpensively, and, indeed, was offered for that purpose, but the offer was not ac- cepted. This was some ten years ago. be- fore Kamsey street was laid out. at which time Mr. Carpenter made very liberal offers in regard to appropriating the property for a park. His propositions were not acceded to, since which time he has placed very costly improvements upon the premises, and the growth of the city has srreatly en- hanced the value of the property. To condemn it now and take it for a pub- lic park would add a great and unnecessary burden upon the taxpayers of the city. The individual hardship which it would im- pose upon the proprietor is not to be over- looked, as the lookout structure forms a part of ills home and is devoted to the uses, convenience and comfort of his family. of laboring people. Last fall there was scarcely any perceptible improvement, but this fall the situation is radically changed. Instead of the working element wandering aimlessly through the cities and towns there is actually a scramble for help. This has been the case during the entire season, not- withstanding the large influx of emigration. We may say the entire labor element has been actively employed. Wages have not improved very much, but it is often more important to the laboring man that he has steady employment, even if wages are low, than to have only unsteady employment and better pay. Very few of those going to Europe this fall go because fciiey are dissatistied. On the contrary many go to bring out their friends and relatives, and others to visit These and the practical emigration agents and the thousands of letters giving favor- able advices are the auxiliaries, and when these two co-operate they dis- conut the paid emigration agent. The result is a revival of emigration without any 7narked or radical causes apparent, but they exist neverthe- less, and are the patent and powerful fac- tors in the emigration problem. The settling of the Northwest, I mean now. Northern Minnesota and Northern Dakota, does not especially depend on foreign emi- gration, but the percentage of foreign to domestic emigration, is increased or dimin- ished in proportion to the entire volume of emigration to the states, and when the conditions in the Northwest are favorable for a large foreign emigration they are equally favorable for a large domestic emi- gration. It seems to me, that we shall not have to wait long before we shall witness the scenes of 18S0 and '81, when it was not necessary to coax or areue with land-hun- ters and "land-seekers, but to simply provide transportation facilities for the multitude and point to our timber belts, our park dis- tricts, our Red river valley, and the North Dakota country. A Pleasure Trip. Oregon Bonds. Mr. Samuel H. Kneass, chief clerk of the passenger department of the Manitoba road, and the railway editors of the three morn- ing dailies of St. Paul and Minneapolis, re- turned to the city yesterday morning from an excursion to Winnipeg and Devil's Lake which was tendered them by Mr. C. H. Warren, general passenger agent of the Manitoba road. The excursion was one of rich enjoyment and the pre>ss representa- There is an invaluable spring of the purest water upon the property whose value cannot be easily estimated in money. The spring affords an abundant supply ot water for the use of families in the neigh- borhood, and produces no inconsiderable income; and the lookout itself produces also an additional income from a constantly in- creasing throng of visitors. The council will hesitate long, I think, before it will wrest from a private individ- ual property thus improved and occupied, was not the increased burden of taxation which it would cause an objection. The petitioners. I think, have not well considered this matter in all its bearings in moving in this direction to secure the con- demning of this property for a public park, p.nd the board of public works and the coun- cil will act more considerately, lam sure, in coming to a decision. In estimating the value of this property several things are to be considered, namely: The value of the spring, tiie thousands of dollars expended in buildings and other im- provements, the great advancement in the value of real estate, and lasily, but not least, what should be awarded to a man for taking from him his homestead. There are still other considerations; and just men, as 1 know those comprising the board of pub- lic works and the city council to be. will be slow to accede to the request of the peti- tioners. I admit that Individual property may be justly condemned for public use when actr ual necessity requires it. but I deny that in this case there is need or necessity for de- molishing the buildings and converting this small parcel of land into a miniature park at a heavy addition to the tax list. If the lookout property is condemned, the same reasons would apply with equal or greater force to the condemnation of the adjoining | property of Mr. Maurice Auerbach, which j would be needed to enlarge and round out I the little park, both of which would add to I our already overburdened amount of taxa- tion a sum equa: to or approximating SIOO,- --000. an addition not to be thought of in the estimation of, at least, one Taxpayer. At an auction at Tower City this week it is said that wheat sold 2 cents above the ele- vator prices. It is not thought that it sold above its value, however. 3 brers"&T"lT^\ 4^k "H™"! 10 wan* see aw elegant stock oi 1: I I !• i! UI -i Men's, Youths' and Children's Cloth- T^TT \ i H' ing,.

Two Big Damage Suits on Trial--To-Day isyecial Term.

The Thompson-Pioneer Press libel suitprogressed rapidly yesterday, the examina-

tion of witnesses being considerably brieferthan in any of the previous trials of the

cases in which Thompson was defendaut.Judge Loehren expects to hear the case to-day despite the long special term calendar,and it is thought that the evidence will beall in by noon. Nothing new was devel-oped the testimony Doing substantially thesame as in the former trials. The follow-in" witnesses were examined: James M.Williams, W. H. Lee, Gen. Logan, GeorgeR. Robinson, Byron Sutherland, FredRogers, John E. McLeod, Jeremiah Smith,\u25a0\\.~N. Reid, J. T. Robinson, WinthropYdnnSTt Jerry Howe, David Bassett, S. W.Farnham. The deposition of J. A. Love-joy, who is unable to be present, was alsoread.

A TEX THOUSANDDOLLAR DAMAGEsuit is on trial before Judge Koon, it beingan action brought by William Touheyagainst the executors of the C. C. Wash-burn estate. The complainant states thatthe plaintiff is 26 years old and•was a machinist in the employ of M. W.Glenn. Dec. 11 ho went with two othermen to one of the Washburn mills for thepurpose of setting up certain boilers andfurnaces. A Ions:, heavy pipe known as a"breeching," to be used in conducting the

Kinoke to the smokestack, was suspendednear the roof. It was necessary for the de-fendant to work upon the breeching, and heclimbed out upon it, relying upon its beingsafely tied. One of the ropesbroke, and ho fell to thefloor below, sustaining severe injuriesto his spine, and nervous system, whichhave unfitted him for work since. A modelof the building was shown to the jury, andthe case is being very carefully tried.

The suit of George W. Sherwood et al.vs. .1. W. Johnson was argued and given to

the jurybefore Judge Koon in the morning.The juryreturned a verdict in favor of theplaintiff forS6lß.lß. The plaintiff soughtto recover 51,500 on a breach of contract,

for failure to purchase certain cattle.MISCELLANEOUS.

Judge Young yesterday had a compara-tively easy time of it. the entire businessof his court being conprised in the dismissalof W. B. Chandler et al. vs. F. L. Morrilletal.

Clarence A. Brown yesterday commencedsuit against Frank Crowell to recover io-20on a breach of contract for failure to pur-chase certain real estate.

Ninety cases are on the special term cal-endar, and iliis willbe a busy day in court.At leasi fifteen divorce suits that have beencontinued along trom time to tune aremarked for trial.

A PLEASAST St'CCESS.

warfare is not pleasant, nor is'it profitable."

***There is a little too much of the star-chamber business about the doings of thecommittees in charge of the exposition.They have probably adopted the motto ofStonewall j'ackson. "The secret of successis mystery," without any of his reasons.The exposition is a public affair in whichall the people are interested, and there islittle more than nonsense in these secret,mysterious sessions.

Charles Moth won the athletic contestwitli Mervin Thompson at theTheater Comique last night. Hein fact won every point. The.first was two tests with a 120-pound dumb-bell, and then Moth manipulated a caskweighing 208 pounds as though it weighedbut 25 pounds. Thompson conceded the caskact without an attempt. The wrestling inatehfollowed. Thompson won the first choiceand took catch-ns-catch-can. Itwas a des-perate struggle and in point of merit wasmuch superior to the Market hall contest.Moth won in the second fall. Gneeo-Romanstyle, in 4 minutes, finishing the contest.

T. Shields of Canada is a new acquisitionto the athletes of Minneapolis. He is a big,brawny fellow, and claims that he can de-feat the best of 'em in heavy-weight feats.He challenges any athlete to put the shot,throw the fifty six-pound weight, heavy orlight hammers, wrestling or boxing, forfrom SSOO to Si,ooo a side. He says hemeans business, and is willingto meet anyman and sign articles at once, and put up aforfeiture.

Harvest Iloine Entertainment.The Mission band of the Church of Christ

last evening gave a pleasing entertainmentof musical and literary features in celebra-tion of the harvest home. The church,cor-ner of Portland avenue and Eleventh street,was decorated with the "fruits of the har-vest," in the shape of clusters of grapes,heaps of vegetables and sheaves of wheat,the prettiest feature, however, being thegroup of some thirty children who formedthe Mission band. An interesting programwas given, but its length precludes any ex-tended individual notice. It opened andclosed with a chorus by the band and wascomposed as follows: Vocal duets, MissesClara Holt and Anna Adams and Pearl andAnna Adams; instrumental polos,Misses Sylvia Mattison, Carrie Hazel-ton, Mabel Farrier, Inga Beebe, AlicePlum-mer. Kiltie Williams and Addie Lincoln;vocal solos and songs, Misses Sallie An-keny and Winnie Adams; recitations,Misses Edith Caiiy. Cora Siafter, MaggieLowry, Bertha Atkinson, Lottie Covey,Ilattie Church, Ida Seeba, SaUio Aukeny,NVttie Church. Lydia Peterson, LydaBeebe, Leta Major. Emma Ball, EdnaCarly, Matilda Peterson and Alice Pluni-mer.

The band, which had been trained byMrs. Campbell and Mrs. Ankeny, hadmarched in from the class rooms and dur-ing the entertainment sat in a body uponthe plattorm. A small admission fee hadbeen charged and a neat little sum was re-alized.

Picking: Directors.The exposition committee of eleven had

its second meeting yesterday morning atthe rooms of the Jobbers' association, and,as before, had the doors tightly sealed.This has been, all along, the most interest-ing phase of the movement —chat deep,dark and mysterious secrecy which is as-sumed at every opportunity. There arethose who object to it, but their objectionswill end when they learn that the apparentmystery is only to increase interest. Thatis all. The committee met to select thenames of twenty-live subscribers to be votedfor, at the meeting of to-night week, for di-rectors for the first year. Some membersof the committee regarded itas an instruc-tion of the meeting that some of the com-mittee should be directors, and acting uponthis idea, the names of S. C. Gale, T. B.Janney, C. B. Heffelfinger, M. W. Glennand E. S. Corser were decided upon in thebeginning. Those of D. M. Gilmore, A. J.Blethen, W. M. Regan, W. E- stecle-Charles W. Johnson and William S. Kingwere afterward nominated. These names

MIJiSEAPOLIS SPORTS.

O. M. Farnham is a well-known youn?man of Minneapolis with extravagant andprofligate habits. Without any lucrativeoccupation.he has always a plethoric pocket-book and evinces a disposition to illustiutethe old axiom, "Afool and his money aresoon parted. ' Recently, his father, 11. M.Farnhatn, Ins made good several heavydebts contracted by the reckless youth indivers and questionable ways. He bor-rowed from Judge E. S. Jones of the Ilen-nepin County Savings bank $1,000 on anabstract of property, valued at $10,000 andthe property of his father. The loan waseasily negotiated upon the strength of anote purporting to have been written by U.M. Farnhum.

Ex-Banker Fish's Last Trouble.Nkw York, Oct. 23.—The Herald has

the following details of a scene that oc-curred yesterday in the case of Banker Fish,brought here from state prison to testify inthe Ferdinand Ward case: Mr. Fish ex-changed his prison cell for city hotel fareonly to encounter more sorrow than Auburnbrought him. While he was in the districtattorney's office the corpse of his son, whorecently died in Louisiana, reached theGrand Central depot for shipment to hisformer home in Connecticut forburial. Oneof the officers as gently as possible brokethe news to the wretched father, whoseface grew even paler and more drawn thanbefore as he bowed hU» head in his handsand wept in a silence which was brokenonly by his sobs and moans. At last, in abroken voice, he said his grief was all themore intense because he could not look oncemore, and for the last time, upon tiie faceof the dead son, so dear, so always dutifuland devoted. The train with the dead sonhad rumbled out of the depot on the waytothe burial place. The former bank presi-dent sank back into his chair with a faint,weary sieh.

Advance in Xmigrant Inland Rates.Much interest was manifested in railroad

circles yesterday upon the news that thePennsylvania had countermanded its $1emigrant rate. The information is of gen-eral interest and is one of the most impor-tant occurrences of receut date. As cmi-gration rates bear principally upon therapid settling of the Northwest, the newsthroughout the country will be perhaps alittle disappointing, but may be in the longrun more favorable than disastrous to theDakota and Northern Minnesota districts.Upon the subject, Emigration Agent A. E.Johnson speaks as follows:

"All indications and advices denote aspeedy restoration of emigration inlandrates. The Pennsylvania has instructed itsbook agents drawing orders for their ac-count at the Si rate to stamp each order'not good after Jau. 20, 18SG.' Notifica-tion has been given by the West Shore toits booking agents, although it has not beenusing the SI rate, but a ratebused on ?8 from New York toChicago, to limit all orders afterOct. 22, srood to Dec. 31 of thjs year.Other trunk lines have taken some precau-tion to prevent any further issue of low-priced emigration orders. When the $1emigration rate was established, itcame in time to increase and stimulate theprepaid immigration business. The oceansteamship lines, particularly the Germanones, broke out into war among themselveswhich resulted in a reduction in ocean ratesto §10, and even inland and oaean reduc-tion were largely taken advantage of byticket buyers and the result was a rush ofemigration business, which began in March,and which taxed the more prominent steam-skip companies to their utmost carryingcapacities, and the second quarter of thisyear brought in a much greater percentagethan tlie same quarters of ISB4 and 1883.Emigration the third quarter has kept upremarkably well and

THE GERMAN STEAMERSforOctober have averaged from 250 to 400passengers on each trip. The advance inocean rates will serve to check the arrivalssomewhat. Itis not likely that any con-siderable number of low-priced orders areoutstanding, and as all were issued under asix mouth's limit, all emigrants holding or-ders must land before April22 of ISBG,which is the date of the expiration of allthe limits. Consequently the orders for aSI rate do not extend into next year's busi-ness proper, and the action of the Pennsyl-vania railroad company and other trunklines bar any issue at low rates. The effectof the advance from the SI rate to a nomi-nal figure willhave the effect on next year'sbusiness of bringing prepaid book businessmuch later than usual, because intendingpurchasers will naturally wait, hoping foranother break in rates. Nearly all warson emigrant rates for the past ten years havebegun in the winter season, and at a timewhen prepaid business was at its height.This is weli-known among ticket brokers,and they have come to expect these reduc-tions as a matter of course. The proba-bilities are that they willbe disappointedin this the coming season, but, as beforestated, they will wait as iong as possible.With the advraice ki ocean and iand rates,through emigration fares from European toNorthwestern points more than double thisseason, the volume of emigration will benaturally enough reduced, but this losswillbe more than compensated for by thepromising future and the new era of pros-perity on which the Northwest is now en-tering. Notwithstanding the advance inrates a good immigration business may beexpected."

tives extend most hearty thanks to Mr.Warren for the courtesies extended them,and to Mr. Kneass for the able manner inwhich he carried out his part of the pro-gram. At Winnipeg the party was enter-tained by the Winnipeg Press club and cit-izens of Winnipeg, who joined in to makotheir visit as pleasant as possible. A nightwas spent at Crookston and another atDevil's Lake city. Both of these townsshow activity and have made rapid progressduring the last year or two.

Transcontinental Pool.

Members of the Transcontinental associa-tion are arranging for a meeting in the nearfuture and are now discussiug at whichpoint to hold it. The places proposed areChicago and Monterey. Cal., and which ofthese two places itshall be will be decidedupon by vote. The chief and really theonly point to be discussed is the refusal ofthe Southern Pacific to concede to the de-cision of the Transcontinental associationat its meeting in St. Paul. The Burling-ton having given notice of withdrawal fromthe pool and the contract which the SantaFe has made with the Southern Pacific, hasplaced matters in an awkward position, andunless some immediate action is taken anentire dissolution of the pool will result.

"THE QUESTION OF RATE3has a preat bearing on emigration, and Iamfree to say that Ithink we have this sea-son's exceptionally low ocean aud rail ratesto thank tor at least 25 per cent of ouremijpation for 18S5. As is well knownemigration moves ia a given ratio. Certaincauses here or in Europe stimulate orretardemigration, and it is a remarkable fact thatduring the past two years of depression inthe United States, which usually and verynaturally causes a decline in emigration,the arrivals isrom Germany have beenheavier than at any time duriag the pre-ceding prosperous seasons, say of 18S0 and1831. And we must look for the causes ofthis phenomenal and unusual condition tothe other side, as the situation in Americadid not warrant the extraordinarylarge German emigration. Scandi-navian emigration has steadilydeclined since 1861, which wasthe pivotal year, but the prospects are thatthe decline has been checked this season,and that the next will witness a revival.The reasons for the continuous decrease inScandinavian emigration have been thecomparative prosperous times in Sweden,Norway and Denmark, and the relativelydepressing times here. While at the mo-ment all advices and information tend to amaterial change, if the worse in Scandi-navia, certainly for the better here, and es-pecially in the Northwest. Two years agothis fall a very large percentage of thosewko went home to Europe were dissatisfiedemigrants returning to stay. Many otherswere uncertain how they could pass theapproaching winter without privation tothemselves or being a burden to theirfriends. Fortunately, there was consid-erable public and private work in the Southfor the winter, and there was

VOICE OP THE PEOPLE.A Proposed Injustice.

To the Editor of the Globe:Inoticed in the last Tuesday evening

proceedings of the city council, as pub-lished the following:

The council ordered the board of publicworks to investigate and report on the * * •condeming 1 a certain piece of land for a pub-lic park, bounded by Summit and Ramseyand the west line of property owned byMaurice Auerbach, and known as "SummitAvenue Lookout."

This is a very surprising movement, andmade without any reference to or theknowledge of Mr. Carpenter, the propri-etor of the premises. Mr. Carpenter mightbe induced to sell the property, on a fairvaluation as property-value now ranges inthe city, but he has never been approachedon the subject.

Itis too late in the day to condemn thisproperty for public «ses since the costly im-provements that have been put upon it.There was. before these improvements weremade, a time when this property might havebeen had for a public park comparativelyinexpensively, and, indeed, was offered forthat purpose, but the offer was not ac-cepted. This was some ten years ago. be-foreKamsey street was laid out. at whichtime Mr. Carpenter made very liberal offersin regard to appropriating the property fora park. His propositions were not accededto, since which time he has placed verycostly improvements upon the premises,and the growth of the city has srreatly en-hanced the value of the property.

To condemn it now and take it for a pub-lic park would add a great and unnecessaryburden upon the taxpayers of the city.The individual hardship which it would im-pose upon the proprietor is not to be over-looked, as the lookout structure forms apart of ills home and is devoted to the uses,convenience and comfort of his family.

of laboring people. Last fall there wasscarcely any perceptible improvement, butthis fall the situation is radically changed.Instead of the working element wanderingaimlessly through the cities and towns thereis actually a scramble for help. This hasbeen the case during the entire season, not-withstanding the large influxof emigration.We may say the entire labor element hasbeen actively employed. Wages have notimproved very much, but it is often moreimportant to the laboring man that he hassteady employment, even if wages are low,than to have only unsteady employmentand better pay.

Very few of those going to Europe thisfall go because fciiey are dissatistied. Onthe contrary many go to bring out theirfriends and relatives, and others to visitThese and the practical emigration agentsand the thousands of letters giving favor-able advices are the auxiliaries, and whenthese two co-operate they dis-conut the paid emigration agent.The result is a revival ofemigration without any 7narked or radicalcauses apparent, but they exist neverthe-less, and are the patent and powerful fac-tors in the emigration problem. Thesettling of the Northwest, I mean now.Northern Minnesota and Northern Dakota,does not especially depend on foreign emi-gration, but the percentage of foreign todomestic emigration, is increased or dimin-ished in proportion to the entire volume ofemigration to the states, and when theconditions in the Northwest are favorablefor a large foreign emigration they areequally favorable for a large domestic emi-gration. Itseems to me, that we shall nothave to wait long before we shall witnessthe scenes of 18S0 and '81, when it was notnecessary to coax or areue with land-hun-ters and "land-seekers, but to simply providetransportation facilities for the multitudeand point to our timber belts, our park dis-tricts, our Red river valley, and the NorthDakota country.

A Pleasure Trip.

Oregon Bonds.

Mr. Samuel H. Kneass, chief clerk of thepassenger department of the Manitoba road,and the railway editors of the three morn-ing dailies of St. Paul and Minneapolis, re-turned to the city yesterday morning froman excursion to Winnipeg and Devil's Lakewhich was tendered them by Mr. C. H.Warren, general passenger agent of theManitoba road. The excursion was one ofrich enjoyment and the pre>ss representa-

There is an invaluable spring of thepurest water upon the property whosevalue cannot be easily estimated in money.The spring affords an abundant supply otwater for the use of families in the neigh-borhood, and produces no inconsiderableincome; and the lookout itself produces alsoan additional income from a constantly in-creasing throng of visitors.

The council will hesitate long, I think,before it will wrest from a private individ-ual property thus improved and occupied,was not the increased burden of taxationwhich it would cause an objection.

The petitioners. Ithink, have not wellconsidered this matter in all its bearings inmoving in this direction to secure the con-demning of this property for a public park,p.nd the board of public works and the coun-cil will act more considerately, lam sure,in coming to a decision.

In estimating the value of this propertyseveral things are to be considered, namely:The value of the spring, tiie thousands ofdollars expended in buildings and other im-provements, the great advancement in thevalue of real estate, and lasily, but notleast, what should be awarded to a man fortaking from him his homestead. There arestill other considerations; and just men, as1 know those comprising the board of pub-lic works and the city council to be. willbeslow to accede to the request of the peti-tioners.

I admit that Individual property may bejustly condemned for public use when actrual necessity requires it. but I deny that inthis case there is need or necessity for de-molishing the buildings and converting thissmall parcel of land into a miniature parkat a heavy addition to the tax list. If thelookout property is condemned, the samereasons would apply with equal or greaterforce to the condemnation of the adjoining

| property of Mr. Maurice Auerbach, whichj would be needed to enlarge and round out

I the little park, both of which would add toI our already overburdened amount of taxa-tion a sum equa: to or approximating SIOO,---000. an addition not to be thought of in theestimation of, at least, one Taxpayer.

At an auction at Tower City this week it issaid that wheat sold 2 cents above the ele-vator prices. It is not thought that it soldabove its value, however.
