Holmer had gone to the station to meet a friend that was on his way East and, while they were talking In the Pullman car, his attention was attracted to a man seated near. In telling of the inci dent, Holmer-said today: . "I walked up to him and said, 'Hello, Stensland. what are you doing here?" " 'For God's sake," he said, 'Is it you? Don't give me away." . "I told him he and his affairs were none of my business and then he started to talk. He said he supposed I knew all about his trouble and declared he was almost out of his mind with worry. He told me he was going East and said he had plenty of money. "My friend, who came from Rochester via Buffalo, told me the man whom I recognised had been on the train from that city and they had talked together, The train left here at I A, M. ,1 CASHIER BACKED BOOKIES.

HEAT PROSTRATES MANY Minneapolis Enjoys Grand Arnty Spectacle and Cheers Old Sol diers Oldest and Youngest In Line One Dies. MINNEAPOLIS, Aug. 15. For the 40th time since its work was finished and its glory won, the Grand Army was In line today. There have been many parades more gorgeous, spectacles more dazzling and bewildering, but never has there been In this country one more appealing and Impressive than that which passed through the streets of Minneapolis dur ing the greater part of this morning. The parade was a notable affair, as such things go, well handled, quick moving and inspiring to look upon. It was a day of pride for the old soldiers in themselves and for the multitude in the soldiers. Over the heads of the vete rans, as they marched along," countless flags snapped in the breeze, . and their lines passed for miles between buildings, gorgeously decorated in their honor. The day was ideal. Several sharp showers during the night dispelled the oppres siveness of the season and a cool breeze swept the streets. Cheers for Female Drill Corps. With the head of the column, which moved promptly at 10 -o'clock, was a mounted platoon of police. Directly be hind the police and at the head of the parade proper came the magnificent Cook Drum Corps and Band, of Denver, its showy Zouave uniforms making a splen did appearance. Twenty-two young wo men, who form a arlll corps and are a portion of the organization, were espe cially favorites with the multitude, and were given a continuous ovation during the parade. Next came the chief marshal of the parade, ex-Governor Van Sant, and his chief of staff. General Fred B. Wood. Adjutant-General of Minnesota, who was followed by officers composing the regi mental and staff officers of the Minnesota National Guard. Then, marching in splendid, even ranks, with their forma tion superbly kept throughout the entire parade, came the first of the old sol diersColumbia Post, of Chicago acting as the principal escort of the commander-in-chief. Behind this post came Commander-in-Chief Tanner, mounted, and attenfied by his personal staff. Following the officers of the organization came the men who were the life guard of the Na tionthe heroes of the Civil War. The states marched In order of their admis sion to the Grand Army, Illinois having the right of the line, followed by Wis consin, Pennsylvania, Ohio and New York in the order named. Twenty other states followed these. Oldest and Youngest Veteran. In the band which preceded the Bock Island, 111., veterans were represented the extremes of enlistment in the Civil War the one being Anson M. Hubbard of Mollne, 111., who, although 90 years old, marched In as springy a manner and blew his fife as shrilly as he did during the war. The other extreme was seen in the person of Lyston D. Howe, of Streator, 111., who was the youngest man to enlist during the war. After the men from New York came the scarlet banner of Massachusetts, then New Jersey and Maine, after which came the first of the far Western states, Cali fornia and Nevada being massed together. Their men were few in number. New England came to the front once more with the men' from Rhode Island, New Hampshire and Vermont. The latter state was especially well represented, many members of the famous old "Ver mont Brigade" being In line. Maryland had a small detachment and then came long ranks of the Western soldiers of the armies of the Cumber land and of the Tennessee, marching un. der the banners of Michigan, Indiana, Iowa, Missouri and Kentucky. The last of the line was Minneapolis. Its soldiers received hearty greetings as they closed the long line. The column was about three hours in passing a given point. The line of march was two miles. The relief corps was busy during the day collecting the men and women who became prostrated by heat and fatigue and carrying them to the hospitals. In addition to these prostrations there were many cases of exhaustion, none of which la serious. Thomas A. Martin, senior vice-commander of the Department of the Potomac and a clerk in the Treasury Department at Washington, became ill while march ing and died as he was being taken to the hospital. George Penney, of Logan, la., stepped In front of an automobile and was run over and seriously Injured. NO ROOM FOR JAPANESE Berkeley Grammar Schools Declared to Be Too Crowded. SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. . 15. (Special.) City Superintendent of Schools Water man, of Berkeley, has refused the ap plications of at least a dozen Japanese students for the grammar grades, alleg ing that there is Insufficient room at present for even the American children.

NEW ORLEANS. Aug. 15. (Special.) The belief of the people of the South in the unwritten law was evidenced here today, when Peter Manale's acquittal of the charge of murder of his faithless wife and the serious shooting of her paramour was greeted with such ap plause that the court officials had diffi culty in restoring order. As the acquit tal was announced, tears were stream ing down the face of the Judge, and im mediately after the trial he hastened to shake hands with the man who had just been' acquitted. Never before In the history of the court has there been a more dramatic climax to a case than there was in the dis charge of this young man, whose home had been ruined. Throughout the case Judge Auceln paid the closest attention to the nature of the testimony given by some of the witnesses, and when Manale was placed on the stand It was with the most sympathetic look that the magis trate swore him. Manale gave all his testimony, and his attorney. Thomas J. Ford, said the defense would rest there. "Let the accused go," said the Judge. As the decision was announced by the crier, many of the spectators clapped their hands and beat the floor with their feet. The state made no effort to pro duce witnesses for the prosecution.
