> John Johnson, a Swede who was pass-ing through Minneapolis yesterday, and\u25a0was the victim of an assault tor which anegro named Pierce Barber is held, wasthrown into Jail last night and detaineduntil this morning when he was asked toswear out a complaint against Barber.Why he was locked up at all is what ispuzzling him, for he maintains that with-out provocation the colored man attackedhim. He asked Officer John Fenn to ar-rest Barber and to his surprise was him-self taken to the station and placed in acell. This morning no charge was madeagainst him and after he swore out thecomplaint he was allowed: to go.

There is still another man who has beenin Minneapolis only three weeks who istrying to acquaint himself with the meth-ods of the police department. Unfortunate-ly he sew the attack on Johnson and hewas locked up. He was told, accordingto his story, that he was held as a wit-ness, but when he appeared at the courtthis morning he faced a charge of drunk-enness. He was tried and acquitted.

The negro's case was continued untilto-morrow.

A MAGICAL CHANGEItIs Being Wrought by Wisconsin

Central on Boom Island.

AREA OF ISLAND IS DOUBLED

Improvements There Will Be Readyby November I—Work Be-

\u25a0 'i ing Rushed.

Wisconsin Central improvements areworking a magical change on BoomIsland. When' the property was purchasedby the company it was nothing more thana large patch of sand of doubtful value.The Wisconsin pentral is converting itinto a valuable terminal property. Theimprovements which have been progress-ing reasonably fast during the past fewweeks include the multiplyingof the areaof the island by. two. The harbor lineswere fixed by the government engineerssoon after the purchase of the . propertyby the company. The construction of aprotecting wall and the filling*in of largequantities of earth and rock Is doing therest. Up to date 36,000 yards of materialhave been placed in this improvement,and' it is estimated that further improve-ments will require an additional 100,000yards. _ . . \ • .

The improvements also include a biground house, a modern coaling plant, ma-chine and repair shops, ice houses and allthat goes to make perfect terminal facil-ities, for Minneapolis is to be the westernterminal of that road. The island im-provements will be ready by Nov. 1 If theweather is at all favorable and materialcan be procured. This will not end thework, as It is-the intention of the com-pany oto, make Boom Island one of thehandiest | terminal spots jto be found. Itis believed that the bridge across the eastchannel will be ready for the tracks nextweek. The bridge connecting NlcolletIsland with. Boom Island is already com-pleted. . :

Work is being rushed on the big freightI house and on the yards on Hennepin ave-nue between First and Second streets.The contractors expect to have the freightdepot ready by Dec. '1. This structurewillbe a block in length, two stories high,and will be of brick. A viaduct is to bebuilt| from the. second story, which willdo away with hauling goods up the steepgrade from the depot. ,

Themorning train leaves Minneapolis at 8:15a. m.. except Sundays, and the night train,at 10:30 p. m., daily.

THE MINNEAPOLIS JOURNA

LIKELY TO AGREENormal Board and Board of Con-

trol Aie Getting Together,

THE FORMER'S PLAN IS REJECTED

But a Spirit of Fairnen la ApparentWhit;U Aunurs Early, Com-

promise.

President Ankeny of the state normalschool board this morning received thereply of the board of control to the pro-posed "plan of co-operation," submittedby a committed from the normal board.. As previously stated in Th c Jour-nal, the boardof control does not acceptthe plan. It still refuses to permit theresident directors to serve as purchasingagents. In its reply, however, the boardof control says it is filling to consultwith the normal board in making suchappointments.

President Ankeny is of the Opinion thata full agreement will be speedily reached,perhaps by Saturday. Meanwhile the nor-mal schools will -work under the board ofcontrol, sending all vouchers and payrollsto that body for approval.

The text of the "plan of co-operation"is here printed for the first time, with thereply of the board of control.

The text of the "plan of co-operation"Is here printed for the first time, with thereply of the board of control.

Tenht—ln case any dieagreement shallarise in the construction hereof the sameshall, upon notice, be submitted to the at-torney general of the state for his determina-tion, and his determination therein shall befinal. —A. T. Ankeny,

William B. Mitchell,W. S. Hammond,

Committee State Normal Board.Dated this Sept. 12, 1901.

Control Board's Reply.

The reply of the board of , control,which was signed and mailed yesterday byW. E. Lee, the only member in the cities,reads as follows:

State of Minnesota, Board of Control ofState Institutions, St. Paul, Sept. 16, 1901.—Hon. A. T. Ankeny, President Normal SchoolBoard, Minneapolis, Minn.—Dear Sir: Yourcommunication of the 12th mat. enclosing "Aplan for co-operation by and between the nor-mal school board and the board of control,both of Minnesota, for the maintenance andoperation of the several normal schools," pre-pared by a committee of the normal schoolboard, received and carefully noted.

In reply will say, that chapter of thelaws of 1901, from which your committee haslargely quoted, must, we believe, be the guideof the two boards, and its proper constructionmust determine the powers and limitation* ofeach. Under it, we cannot see our way to ap-point members of the normal school board thepurchasing agents for the schools, believing

'that such an appointment would be a viola-tion of its intent and spirit. We shall, how-ever, be glad to confer with the normal schoolboard before selecting persons to fill such po-sitions.

W<j concede that the law confers upon thenormal school board the necessary power andauthority to determine the educational policyof the normal schools, and we think the sameis fairly and fully stated in said "plan of co-operation," except in the following Instances:

Item S construes the law as giving to thenormal board the power to fix salaries of em-ployes other than teachers. This power theattorney general has decided belongs to theboard of control. Item 4 construes the law asgiving to the normal board the right "to de-termine the kind, quantity and quality of sup-plies needed for the schools." It is the opin-ion or this board that euoh determinationshould be reached by the mutual actio* ofboth boards.

It seems to us that a reasonable construc-tion of the law suggests that its administra-tion requires the mutual co-operation of theseboards, especially co in determining mattersthat affect both the educational and financialinterests of the schools, and it is the wishof this board, as it has always been, to co-operate with the normal board or its properrepresentative, to that end. If we are unableto agree upon the interpretation of the lawin any particular case, we are willingto sub-mit the same to the attorney general and beguided by his opinion.

As to item 9 wa are obliged to say we areunable to find any warrant of law for payingrasident directors of the normal schools $300per annum, or any other sum, for their ser-vices, or that the services required of themin the future will be such as the state hasbeen accustomed to paying a salary for.

It la the wish of this board to do everythingit can, consistently with the law, to promotethe beet interests of the normal schools, andit will not knowingly trench upon any of therighto or assume any of the powers conferredupon the normal board, and it expresses the !belie? that the normal board will not desire |to interfere with the duties of the board ofcontrol, as denned by law, when the some arefully understood; and we hope that in thosematters in which the administration of thelaw requires the Joint action of the twoboards; we may very soon have the co-opera-tion and assistance of the normal board.Yours respectfully,

—Board of Control of State Institutions,By Wm. E. Lee.

A' Spirit of Fairness.

Mr. Ankeny aaid this morning:The reply of the board of control, while not

entirely all I expected, is certainly fair in itsspirit. It will be observed that practicallyeverything the normal board baa contendedfor is now conceded, except the matter as to

Iwho shall be appointed the purchasing agents.

While the board of control refuses to ap-point our resident directors it signifies itswillingness to confer with the normal boardbefore making the appointments. Inasmuchas the purchase of supplies for the normalschools, outside of fuel, amounts annuallyto only a few hundred dollars each, this be-comes a matter of secondary importance. Thedeclaration of the board of control, now forthe first time made, that the administrationof the law "requires the mutual co-opera-tion of the boards, especially so in determin-ing matters that affect both the educationaland financial Interests of the schools," is thevery point for which we have contended.Heretofore our board has to a greet extentbeen ignored and communications were soughtto be held,not with us, but with our employes.It is very much as if a gentleman calling ona friend should seek entrance at the backdoor rather than at the front.

As to whether or not the resident directorsshall continue to receive the compensationfor services now fixed by the normal boardlaws, that Is a matter we are willing tosubmit to the attorney general for his de-termination.

As to what course would now be pur-sued Mr. Ankeny said:I am only one of the three members of our

committee. Mr. Mitchell is now out of thestate. I think a meeting of the committeewill be held.on Saturday next at St. Paul andit is likely then that by a further conferencewith the board of control a full understandingwill be reached. For one I now feel that theboard of control has at least concluded torespect the law and not to attempt an undue

Interference with our general management ofthese educational institutions.

In discussing the controversy Mr. Lee,of the board of control, says:

The- only real obstacle I ran see is thequestion of the appointment of the residentdirectors as purchasing agents, and with thatout of the way I think we could very easilyagree.
