THE MINNEAPOLIS TRIBUNE SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 30. THE BAILIFF ACCIDENT late it when languid to secretion, arid reft olve its chronic engorgements. WOMAN SUFFRAGISTS THE CITY. STEAM they must, as much as possible, influence their brothers, husbands and other relatiVen who are voters, and get them to vote for those men who will exert their political power for the suppression of vice. MI1H.

OABPENTKB read paper on "Who Are the Frionds of Woman Suffrage?" The speaker quoted from Plato, one of the friends of woman, who said that the same opportunity forsolf-government which makes a man a good guardian ill make a woman a good guardian, for their original nature is the same. Herbert Spencet says that however much the giving of I political power to women may disagree with our notions of propriety, such a concession is unquestionably right and good. George Eliot, Elizabeth Barrett Browning and John Stuart Mill all contended that women have equal rights with men. Our own country has produced the following: Abigail Adams, the wife of one President and mother of another; Garrison, Whittier, Beecher, Harriet Beecher Stowe, Lucretia Mott, Emerson, Wendell Phillips, Margaret Fuller (who was born years before fier time), Horace Greeley, James Freeman Clarke, Theodore Parker, Bishops Simpson, Haven and Whipple, all of whom" have said noble things in favor of woman's rights. Mrs.

Nelson then road a poem in reply to the statement, "Ladies don't want to vote." It was humorous and a severe criticism of the r.fliimation quoted. MES. VIOLA F. MIX EH next read an essay. The essayist referred to the arguments of those who advocatowoman Fiiffrago an educational basis.

She maintained that such a scheme would not vork well. American principles are opposed to an aristocracy even if it is an aristocracy of education. It has been urged that every woman to have a vote fihould have completed a gr.ain.mar school course or its equivalent. Fancy, seid the speaker, a woman of .00 years of age submitting herself to such an ordeal. She may be a clear-headed woman, well able to decide rightfully as to who would make the best mayor of the city, but yet not able to par such an educational examination.

A strong point in favor of woman suffrage lies in tho fact that the liquor element presents a firm front against it. At least two of the national political parties havo realized tho importance of the woman's ruffrage movement, and have each introduced into their platform a plank in woman's favor. After a few remarks from the president the meeting adjourned. SIMPSON SHIRT MAKERS, HATTERS. NICOLLET HOUSE CORNER PLANT PETERSON, arpets FALL STYLES now arriving.

On the 30th of June, while at work on the Manitoba stoue arch bridge, John V. Bail-ill and Cornelius Burke were thrown by the fall of a bent running between the arches, a distance of CO feet irto the river, and the former killed and the latter seriously injured. Yesterday in the district court two actions for damages were commenced, one by Burke, the injured man, for $20,003, the other by Florence A. BailiU, wife of the man who was killed and administratrix of his estate, for $5000. Burke's complaint was in substance as follows; BUBKE'S COMrLAIT.

On the 30th of June the defendants were constructing a stone arch bridge across the Mississippi river, aud to this end were constructing false arches of the piets, 40 feet across and 00 feet high, supported beneath by logs and other wooden frame work, to be removed on the completion of the stone arches. In order to insure the safety of the employes it was necessary that such temporary woodwork should be carefully and skillfully built. On the day aforesaid the first temporary arch was being constructed, and tho work had so far progressed that threo bents were up and, apparently, although not actually, secured, stayed and braced; they were, in fact, so WEAKLY AND ILLY -CONSTRUCTED as to make it unsafe for auy person to work thereon, or on the top thereof, as it then and there became the duty of the plaintiff to do; but the defects in the structure were latent, and not known to tho plaintiff. While ft work on the top of it, this structure solely on account of tho carelessness and negligence of the defendants and because of the defects mentioned, instantly gave way, precipating the plaintiff into tbe river, a distance of fr feet, whereby the plaintiff was seriously injured, his right leg being bruised aud permanent injuries done. He states that he has thereby been rendered permanently lame and incapacitated from carrying on his trade; thct he has suffered concussion of the spine and severe nervous shucks which are uncurable; that he suffered also serious internal injuries; that he has been damaged in the sum of C.

The Three Meetings Held Yesterday Election of Officer The Committees' Heports The Speeches of Last Evening- The second annual convention of the Woman's Suffrage Association of Minnesota was held yesterday at the Friends meeting house, Hennepin avenue. At 10::50 A. M.

the convention was called to order by Mrs. Julia B. Nelson of Bed Wing, the vice-president, in the absence of the president, Mrs. Stearns of Dulutli. Mrs.

Fry of Red Wing and Mrs. McDonald 'Of were appointed a committee on credentials. LETTEBFIIOM THE The vice-president read a communication from Mrs, Stearns, who is now in New York city, expressing regret at her absence from the convention. In this communication the work that hnd been done by the national association to bring about woman's suftrage was reviewed and it was urged that it would be better to go to the local legislature asking for presidential and municipal suffrage than to submit the matter to the vote of the people, as had been tried in Nebraska and Michigan. A discussion ensued on the beat plan of woik.

Mrs. Winchell said that it would probably be many years before the general voter would realize the justice and importance of woman suffrage. Mrs. Nelson also agreed with the suggestion of the president. Legislators and numbers of Congress were as a class better able to grasp the merit of the question than wire foreign-born voters, in whose native countries women are oppressed.

Mr. Martin said he wanted to see women get their rights at the polls. Mr. lirewster paid a tribute to the society of Friends, in hose church they were met. This religious rganization had done much to maintain and point out the truth as to woman's rights.

1 he acting president said that the socJoty of Friends was the only religious organization that could furnish a president to the first woman's rights meeting in this country. That meeting was held in 148 at Seneca Falls, N. and Lucretia Mott was the president. -Mrs, Winchell read a report made by Senator Lapham of New York to the Senate of the United States, in June last, from the committee on woman suffrage. COMMITTEE ON EESOLt'TIONS.

Mrs. Brewster, Mrs. Hobart, Mrs. Warner and Mrs. McDonald were appointed to act as a committee on resolutions.

Il.e convention then adjourned. Afternoon Session. A discussion was engaged in as trrtturplari of work for the year and it was decided to leave the question to tho executive committee. ELECTION OF Ol'EICEBS. The convention next proceeded to the election of ofiici rs for the coming year.

The committee on credentials found that there weie 41 numbers present. The following eh ctions took place: President, Mrs. Sarah B. Stearns of Duluth: vice-president, Mrs. Julia 11.

Nelson; corresponding secretary, Mrs. L. A. Carpenter of Minneapolis; recording secretary, Mrs. Edward Sawyer of St.

Paul; treasurer, Mrs. P. Wheeler of Kasson. 1 lie acting president of the meeting was authorized to appoint three members of the executive committee. MISCEI.LAK EOVS.

Mrs. H. J. Molfit, tho treasurer, read her report. Itehowed that 1154 members had joined the organization during the year, whose entrance fees amounted to if 07.

The sum of been received as donations, a total of lyHl.iO. The ex-1 enditures for the year amounted to $jl leaving a balance in hand of The report was accepted and referred to the auditing committee. Mrs. Carpenter read a letter from Kasson setting forth that woman suffrage organization existed these, consisting of members, which is auxiliary to the state body. Mrs.

A. Anderson advocated tho claims of the Western omen's Journal, published at Lincoln, Neb. She said that however warm their hearts may be, they can never accomplish much unless their heads are right also. By supporting the paper referred to they would aid the Nebraska suffragists. Nothing ever aided the temperance cause in Minnesota so much as the victory in Iowa, and so nothing will ever help tho suffragist of this state more than a victory of the, cause in Nebraska.

Letters of greeting from the secretary of the National Association and from Mr. Erasmus M. Correll of Lincoln, were read by Miss Butler. Some little time was devoted to answering various questions put by persons in the audience. Mrs.

Nelson, Mrs. Hobert and Mr. Satterlee gave the needed replies, apparently to the satisfaction of the querists. An invitation was read to attend tho seventh annual mo ting of the Sisterhood of JV.hi ny at the Friends' church on the evening of the (Ith of October. llfSOU'TKiXS.

The following resolutions were submitted by Hie committee and adopted: that the ballot is as much tho inherent right of woman as it is of man. that it is our duty, as mouthers of this association, to press oil the attention of women of cur state in the small towns, villages and townships as well as ill the larger cities, the importance of usiir tho power already granted them to vote for school officers, aside from the interest we take in the education of our children. We consider this: privelege an entering wedge that we must use in the accomplishment of one pupose. fjnil, that wo approve of the plan of petitioning the state legislatures as a means of inllueiicing the national government rather than the submission of this question to the votes of the people. L'cMilcul, that the thanks of tho convention be given to the Friends' organization for the use of their building for the holding of meetings for the purposo of advancing the cause of women.

Mr. Bixby offered tho following resolution: Jiin'iJitd, that tho state of Minnesota in granting women the riyht to on the school question havo established their right to the elective franchise, and we therefore demand that they be now allowed to enjoy all their rights the same as men. The resolution was adopted. The meeting then adjourned. Evening Meeting, There was a largo attendance at tho even iug meeting.

An adjourned meeting of the city council was held last evening, all the members being present except Aids. Barrows, Cleveland, Coe and Haugan. A largo batch of assessment rolls for the laying of water mains, which were left over at tho previous meeting, were presented by the city engineer and adopted, as were the assessment rolls for street sprinkling.

These being concluded the regular order of business was taken up. Aid. Andrews called the attention of the aldermen to tho fact that City Comptroller Hill wished to bo notified not later than Monday of tho tax levy needed by the several aldermen for ward purposes. THE MOTOR QUESTION. A communication was then read from a number of business men and others living in the vicinity of First avenuo south, from Washington to First street, protesting against the further running of tho motor as being detrimental to their business.
