The Cause Assigned for a Cold-Blooded Murder at Hastings. Louis Sommers Kills the Girl Who Declines to Become His Wife. West Virginia White Caps Whip a Couple With Hick- ory Switches. Sixteen Thousand People Visit the Scene of the Saw- telle Tragedy. Special to the Globe. Hastings, Minn., Feb. 16.— The most sensational event which has occurred inHastings for many months took place shortly after 7 o'clock this evening. At that time Miss Mary Dietzen and Miss Emma Link were walking up Second street engaged in animated conversa- tion. Suddenly they were halted by Louis Sommers, who, after speak- ing a few words to Miss Dietzen, drew a revolver and shot the girl dead, disappearing immediately afterward into the darkness. Miss Dietzen was one of the best and most favorably known young ladies of the community. Itis said she. bad kept company with young Sommers for some time, but< finally refused to marry him. At least this is the cause assigned for the cold-blooded murder. Officers are in hot pursuit of Sommers, but up to midnight had not overtaken him. The remains of Miss Dietzen were removed to Mertz & Son's undertaking rooms, where they were viewed by several hundred excited peo- ple. Had Sommers been cautiht during the evening some convenient telegraph pole would have supported his lifeless body before morning. Coroner Cadzow, of Rosemount, has been notified, and an inquest will be held to-morrow. WITH HICKOKYSWITCHES. Horrible Treatment to West Vir- einiansbv Miiall Caps. Wheeling, W. Va., Jan. 18.—The red man and white cap spirit seems to be coming to the front in certain pails of this state. At Rockporr, Wood county, Charles Smith and his wife were both taken from their home and unmer- cifully beaten on the back with hickory switches and compelled to leave the \u25a0 county and the state. The family passed through Parkersburg yesterday, and told a hbr- ril»le story of their suffering and treat- ment. The wife says that after whip- ping her husband the mob caught her while she was trying to escape from the house with their children, and tied her to a tree. She was then beaten until the blood came. Mrs. Smith says the whole cause for the outrage was her re- sistance of the improper solicitation of a citizen of her neighborhood. At Clay Court House a woman was also driven away by a mob, who visited her house, liring ernns and revolvers, and tied a note of warning to her door. THBSAWIELLK MYSTERY. Sixteen Thousand People Visit the Scene. Rochester, N. H., Feb. 16.— Sixteen thousand people have to-day visited the locality where the dismembered re- mains of Hiram A. Sawtelle were un- earthed. Everything in the shape of conveyance within a radius of thirty miles has been pressed into service, and an endless array of overcrowded teams has been the result. While there have been no startling developments to-day, many minor matters have been brought to light, strengthening the chain of evi- dence. Early this morning County Solictor Kivelsent Drs. Ham and Sulli- van from Dover, who. with Dr. Danieis of this place, made a thorough exami- nation of the body. Supt. Small had already telegraphed Officer Watham that there was a thickness of flesh around Hiram Sawtelle's finger nails, caused by disease, also a twist in his ankle, both of which the physicians found on the dead body. Every day brings additional proof that the murder was committed in New Hampshire, which has a capital penalty, while Maine has not. John Willey, who drives a logging team, made a statement to- day that he passed a carriage, supposed to contain Hiram and Isaac, in the pine woods between here and East Rochester, and a" few minutes afterwards he dis- tinctly heard three shots in quick suc- cession. A number of other parties heard the firing. Search for the missing head is still being prosecuted. HAWKS' SKCRErS Reach the Sheriff Through a Deputy. Birmingham, Ala., Feb. 16.—Last night Dick Hawes wrote two letters, ona to Miss May Story, the young lady whom he married in Columbus, and the other to Ed Weaver, of Marion. Ind. He gave them un- stamped to Deputy Gus El lard, who turned them over to Sheriff Smith. He opened them. Both said, when re- ceived the writer would be dead, which plainly meant that Hawes intended to commit suicide. The letter to Miss Story said his late confession, in which he claimed that he paid John Wylie to kill his wife and Irene, was false. He didit to get even with Wylie, who had once, while both were in jail here, be- trayed a plot that Hawes and other prisoners had on foot to escape. CHARGED TO MORMONS. Attempt to Steal the Utah Com- mission's Books. Salt Lake Citt, Feb. 16.— A few days before Christmas the Utah com- mission's office was entered by burglars, and an unsuccessful attempt made to steal the books and papers. The Utah commission is the body of men who have charge of all election matters In this territory, and keep all the records pertaining to elections. It was gener- ally supposed that the Mormons were at the bottom of this attempted burglary, for they were desirous about that time of procuring the registration books, if possible. Friday the Mormons began their contest in the Third district court to compel the Utah commission to issue to their candidates for the city council from the Third and Fourth pre- cincts of this city certificates of elec- tion. They have the majority of votes in these precincts, and if the court de- cides that preciuct votes count for couu- oilmen instead of the general vote of the city, the Mormons would have six out of fifteen ccunciluieu. The case- was set for to-morrow for appearing, but the opinion prevails that the old law is still in force and that the pre- cinct vote will not count. Friday night auother attempt was made to steal the records of the I7tah commission, but as the important papers are all in the safe deposit vault of the Union National bank, nothing of consequence was ob- tained. The burglars, however, stole the gold watch of Gen. McClernand and mo. SHOT THROUGH THE HEART. Roughs Precipitate a Fatality in Indiana. Jeffep.sonvtlle, Ind., Feb. 16.—A farmers' alliance of three adjoining counties was organized and an enter- tainment given last night in the little city of Lexington. Some of the toughs of the surrounding country attended with the intention of breaking up the alliance, and they Interrupted the speaker by letting windows down with a crash. When William Bolles stopped their proceedings, Sheridan. Stoner and others of the crowd went outside, but returned, Stoner having put a pistol in his pocket. The gang stood around Stoner with pistols in their hands and taunted Bolles, who finally broke a bench lee off and struck Stoner, who retreated shooting. A wildpanic ensued, ladies fainted and several at- tempted to jump out of the win- dows and over the bannisters. Bolles fell shot through the heart, while Frank Wells, of Saluda, was shot through the elbow. Mrs. Uolies went into convulsions, and during the con- fusion Stoner escaped, after knocking down George Sne, a prominent teacher, who interfered. The strangest thing U that the murderer passed through Nabb r' *3 morning eat 9 o'clock, and to a crowd of torty related the affair, yet was allowed to go ou unmolested. He is still at large, but a sheriff's posse is after him. Mrs. Boiles is in a critical condition. OFFICIALS IN LIMBO Fop Refusing to Obey a Court Mandate. Vincennes, Ind., Feb. 16.— A1l the city officials, consisting ot the mayor, councilmen, city attorney and street commissioner, were arrested yesterday at the instance of Mrs. Clarissa J. Pau- ley, who had enjoined them from grad- ing a street next to her property. Tha injunction was not observed, and there- fore Mayor Murphy, City Attorney Goodman and others were arrested for indirect contempt of court. The fight that has led up to this wholesale arrest has been a spirited one, and has been going on for two years. The Ohio & Mississippi Railroad company was per- petually restrained two years ago from raising the track to correspond with the grade of the street, and last December Mrs. Pauley recovered damages from the city in the courts for injury to her property from overflow of water in the gutters. The fight in the courts will be a bitter one. The city attorney will enter suit against Mrs. Pauley for|2o.- --000 damages for false imprisonment. The mayor will also ask for $15,000 dam- ages for the same reason. SUCCESSFUL BLACKMAILING. A Cute Game Played on a Buy State Man. Springfield, Mass., Feb. 16.— A suc- cessful attempt at blackmail, of which Amasiah Mayo, a wealthy citizen, was the victim, has just come to light Last November Frank C. Algerton.a medium, enticed Mayo to his room and, under the pretense of receiving massage treat- ment, put Mayo in a compromising atti- tude. Algernon's confederate, George A. Mason, broke in the door, and,claim- ing to be a detect ye, threatened to ar- rest both men. He finally agreed to settle for 14,000, and Mayo paid his half of this amount, while Algerton gave a bogus cheek for his share. An Ktli tor's Kffigy. Wheeling, W. Va., Feb. 16.— A. Cranston, editor of the Martin's Ferry Daily Clipper, was hanged In effigy by some unknown parties Friday night. When the editor awoke yesterday morn- ing the figure was being swayed around by the wind in front of his residence. On its breast was the inscription, "The Daily Clipper, Skull and Crossbones," Beware of White Caps." Signed "Com- mittee." The Clipper has been making things lively for the disreputable ele- ment of the citizens, and they took tn is method of resenting it. SANK IN THKKE MINUTES. The Steamer Louise Goes Down- One Man Drowned. Jacksonville, Fla., Feb. 16.—The Louise, of the Jacksonville & Mayport line, ran into an obstruction early this morning near Hunter's mil!, on St. John's river, and was sunk in less than three minutes. One man was drowned, and the other passengers and crew barely escaped with their lives. The Louise left Mayport last Saturday night bound for this city. She had on board a crew of six men, including Capt. Charles Floyo\and seven passengers. The run from May- port is only two and three hours, and the passengers were all asleep about the cabin with their clothes on. About 1:30 o'clock the steamer suddenly crashed into some obstruction, supposed to be a sunken lighter, and sunk in about two minutes. Capt. Floyd gives the follow- ing account of the disaster: "When the boat struck we rushed to the cabin and called to the passengers to make for the lifeboat. The water rushed in so fast that the boat could not be reached, . and we finally got on a life raft and cnt it loose. This was on the hurricane deck, to which we had retreated. There were ten persons on the raft and myself and Eph Hood in the water. 1 threw my arm over a stick of wood, which aided me in keeping above the surface. Wesley Evans, a young colored passenger, went down with the boat and was drowned. We were not in the water very long, for the schooner Jesse W. Starr came to us and took us all in." The Louise lies in fifty feet of water, nothing being visible but about five feet of her smoke stack. She belongs to the estate of the late Alexander Wallace, and was valued at about $15,000. _ . HIS CHILD KEN PERISHED. Fate of Three Little Ones in a Kansas Home.- Wichita, Kan., Feb. About 4 o'clock yesterday morning J. W. Kerr, a farmer living twenty miles southeast of here, was awakened, and found his house on fire. He was in the second story, and on the lower floor were his three children. Inthe dense smoke he carried his wife to a window and dropped her to the ground. Kerr fol- lowed her, and found that the children had perished. Everything was burned. He put his wife in a carriage and took her twelve miles to a neighbor's. They had only night clothes on, and the ex- posure, itis feared, will prove fatal to Mrs. Kerr. THE PACIFIC ROADS. Reports of Senators Frye and Davis Accepted by the Committee. A Bill Providing for a Refund- ing of Their Debts Agreed Upon. The Measure Provides That the Debts Shall Be Paid in Fifty Years. A Mortgage on Its Property to Be Given by the Union Pacific. Washington, Feb. 16.—The senate special committee of Pacific railroads, after many heariugs, thorough investi- gation and careful consideration, have finallyaccepted the reports of Senator Frye on the Union Pacific and Senator Davis on the Central Pacific, and agreed to a billproviding for a refunding of their debts. The report on the Union Pacific reaches the following conclu- sions : First— That the policy of building or acquiring branch lines was wise and, through the period covered by their in- quiry, honestly and economically car- ried out. Second That the main line has de- rived an immense advantage from the branches, and that there is no founda- tion for the charge that the latter have received undue benefit from construct- ive mileage, or otherwise, at the ex- pense of the main line. Third—That the building of the Ore- gon Short line and the subsequent ac- quirement of the Oregon Railway and Navigation company's lines, instead of being a menace to the interest of the government, have proved to be a decided advantage. Fourth— That the recent consolida- tion ot several branches, under the name of the Oregon Short Line &Utah Northern Railway company, simplifies the system of the Union Pacific, makes possible a more effective and ecouomi- cal management, and in no regard evi- dences any purpose of evading the obli- gations to the government. Filth—That the branches, instead of being maintained at the expense, of the main line, contribute at least $3,000,000 a year to the treasury of the company. Sixth That the improvements have been, for several years past, greater on the main line thau on the branches; some of them very important and ex- pensive. Seventh— That there is no evidence of any purpose on the part of the company to surrender that portion of the line over which the government has a statu- tory lien; on the contrary, every reason tending to satisfy any candid person that no such purpose exists. Eighth— That this is a capable, well- managed road, abundantly able to pay its debts, requiring only, like every other railroad, time in which to pay. Ninth—That the present management Is honestly trying to effect a fair adjust- ment with the government. Tenth— That the interests of the gov- ernment and of the railway company will be promoted by a settlement, and that one can be made "ow under which every dollar of the government debt, with interest, will be had. It finds the present security to be a statutory lien on a road commencing three miles west of the Missouri river, extending to a point five miles west of Ogden, and on another road commencing one-half mile west of Kansas City and extending to a point 393 miles westerly, commencing in a prairie and ending inoue>; not enough to protect the government debt, if it shall not be adjusted until it be- comes due, within $50,000,000; while under the Dill to be reported, the secu- rity obtained will be twice the govern- ment debt in value, and the payments, according to the terms of the bill, abso- lutely certain. THE CENTRAL PACIFIC. The report on the Central Pacific finds that the United States has for se- curity a statutory lien on a i 1 com- mencing at a point five miles west of Ogden and extending to San Jose, with- out terminal facilities at either end. made subject to a mortgage to secure bonds equal in amount to the original indebtedness of the company to the United States: that that portion of the road from Ogden to the westerly slope of the Sierra Nevadas is practically only a bridge, without any local busi- ness of any amount; that the roads reaching from the main line into Ne- vada do not now pay their actual ex- Denses; that the present security of the United States upon this property is en- tirely inadequate; that a foreclosure of the lirst mortgage would substantially exhaust, in satisfaction thereof, the en- the property; and that it would be in- expedient for the United States to re- deem it from said first mortgage, or to become the owner of the property through redemption and foreclosure. The report finds that it Is expedient, necessary and practicable to adjust and further secure the indebtedness to the United States upon extended time at a reduced rate of interest within the abil- ity of the company to pay, upon such terms as to advance the development of the country through which said roads pass, and afford the inhabitants thereof reasonable rates of transportation for passengers and freight. From the re- port it appears that the Central Pacific has not an ability to pay at all equal to that of the Union Pacific, buj under the terms of the bill to be reported can make FINAL AND FULLPAYSrENT reasonably certain. The bill asreed upon includes within its provisions the Lnion Pacific Railroad company, the Kansas Pacific Railway company, the Central branch of the Union Pacific Railroad company, consolidated under the name of the Union Pacific Railway company, the Central Pacific company, successor to the Central Pacific Railroad Company of California, and the West- ern Pacific Raiiroad company. It pro- vides inthe first section for rinding the present worth of the indebtedness of the Union Pacific Railway company on Ist day of July, iB6O, and for the pay- ment to the United States of that amount, with 3 per cent interest, pay- able semi-annuaily; also a portion of the principal annually, so that the en- tire debt shall be paid In fifty years. It requires in section two that the Union Pacific Railway company shall give a mortgage on all its property of 'every name and description, real, mixed and personal, and also preserves to the United States its present statutory Hen. It provides in section five that, iv the event of the failure of said com- pany to accept the provisions of the act. there shall be carried to the credit of the sinking fund one-half of the com- pensation for services rendered for the government, and in addition thereto the sum of §2,000.000 a year, or seventy- five per cent of the whole net earniiiijs of the Union Pacific Railway company; extending also the provisions of the Thuraan act to the Kansas Pacific Railway company, and to the central branch of the Union Pacific Railroad company; that ON FAILURE TO PAY. a receiver shall be appointed to take charge of, manage, and operate the road, branches and lines of said com- pany until the principal and interest of the det>t should have been fully paid. Section 6 provides for the ascertainment of the present worth of the debt of the Central Pacific Railroad company; then for the payment of interest at the rate of 2 per cent per annum, payable semi- anuually, and of so much ot the princt- pal as shall result inthe payment of the entire debt in seventy-five years. But in order to relieve the road from too great a burden during the next ten years, when it is necessary for it to make somewhat extensive im- provements, it capitalizes for that time one-half of the a per cent to be paid. The billrequires by section seven a mortgage of the entire property of the Central Pacific Railroad company, iu- cluding some very important roads in California; and, also, by that section ana a subsequent one. that the South- ern Pacific Railroad company and the Central Pacific shall make the present lease subsisting between them addi- tional security to the United States for the payment of the debt. Section eleven provides that either of the said com- panies may extend the payment of or refund indebtedness prior to that of the United States to the par value of such first mortgage bonds, the rate of inter- est not to exceed 5 per cent. Section twelve provides that in the event of any default for ninety days in the payment of interest or principal, as required by the act, the entire debt SHALL IMMEDIATELY MATURE? also for a record of the mortgage by the secretary ot the treasury in conformity with the laws of the various states and territories where the property is situa- ted. Section IS provides that the United States may retain all money due to these companies for services until the in- stallments of principal and interest upon their bonds next maturing after such services are rendered shall be tully paid. Section 14 provides that the companies 6hali pay no dividends un- less the same shall have een actually earned, and unless such company \u25a0hail have paid all interest and matured indebtedness due. with a penalty for the violation of the act by any director or officer. Section 17 provides for authority to use the name of said company or companies against any person who is or has been director, officer, agent or employe of said companies for the enforcement of any cause of action arising or which may hereafter arise out of any violation of duty, any appropriation of assets or any other act In respect to which the department of justice shall allege that it desires such action; and that any sums ot money recovered in such suits shall go toward the pnvment of the indebtedness to the United States. Section 18 provides for the re- peal of the law requiring government directors; also of the laws imposing limitations on the rights of the com- pany to acquire property, extend its railways, etc.. etc. Section 19 makes it the duty of the attorney general to en- force the provisions of the act and to re- port annually to the president, which report shall be laid before congress. The bill will be reported to the senate this week, and the committee will ask that it will be made the special order for consideration in the first week in March. Carnesie Doesn't Get It. Baltimoke, Md., Feb. 16.—A tele- gram was received here statin? that the Baltimore &Ohio railroad stock owned by the Johns Hopkins university was to be sold, that Andrew Carnegie was to buy the university block of 15.000 shares and that Mr. Carnegie was to be made president of the road. Ex-Judge Geonre W. Dobbin, the president of the board of trustees of the Johns Hopkins uni- versity; Francis T. King, Trustee, aud J. Hall Pleasants, trustee and member of the finance committee, were asked in regard to the report. They positively stated that not only was there no sale, but that there was not even auy talk of sale. GOING SOUTHWARD. The Northern Pacific Has a Bis Undertaking on Hand. Special to the Globe. Chicago, Feb. 16.—1t has now be- come a certainty that the Northern Pa- cific and Canadian Pacific systems are to be connected by a line running north from Seattle, Wash., to a junction point in British Columbia. The proposed movement of the Northern Pacific to continue its line through the northern part of Washington to the boundary and there make connection with the Canadian transcontinental line tap- ping Vancouver and New Westminster, and possibly to reach a good harbor point on the Pacific ocean, is now un- derstood to be definitely settled. Pro- ceeding northward from Seattle, the Hue will run north to Mohomish, then to the Skagit river, passing through Cedro, from which point It is probable that a branch will be built to Ship harbor. The line will then run west of, parallel with and very close to, that of the Seattle, Lake Shore and Eastern, until the British boundary is reached in the vicinity of Blame. Among the pro- posed feeders to secure traffic into New Westminster and Vancouver, across the line, are branches to Whatcom and Bel- krigham bay, and it may hereafter be decided to run a branch near Linden. When the fabulous cost of constructing a railroad northward through the mountains of Washington is considered, tiie immensity of this undertaking of the Northern Pacific can be fully appre- ciated. It is stated that the construction of the new Hue will begin from Seattle inabout three weeks. Although it will require about three mouths to finish the preliminary survey, the entire work of construction. Engineer Huson states, can be finished by the end of the year, and the road be in condition for busi- ness. The company wil! shortly begin the construction ot extensive railroad yards at Seattle. The estimated cost of these yards will be between $400,000 and $.300,000. If the intentions of the Union Pacifi.; and Canadian Pacific are to push matters as fast as the Northern states its intention of doing, a great era of railroad building may be looked for in Washington. IVBS IS INVINCIBLE. The Auburn Divine Raises a Rig Church Debt. . Chicago. Feb. 16.—Rev. Dr. Ivea, of Auburn, N. V., the "church debt: raiser," demonstrated again to-day the fltuess of his sobriquet. The occasion was the dedication of the new Park av- enue Methodist church, on the corner of Robey street, of which Rev. William Fawcett is the pastor. The edifice is a handsome brown stone, costing 88,000,$ on which there remained a debt this morning of 116,000. Dr. Ives' eloquent and persistent appeals secured from the people present at the dedication exer- cises pledges for the whole $16,000, pay- able in three and six months. The con- ditions were that no subscription would be counted unless the entire amount of the debt was subscribed. Dr. Ives, in the course of his remarks, mentioned that he had participated in1.200 similar j affairs throushtout the United Statea, SUNDAY IN GOTHAM. A Quarrel Over a Woman and Diamonds Results in Three Fatalities. Isaac Jacob Shoots Herman Royozinsky, the Latter's Wife and Himself. Both Men Are Dead and the Woman Is at the Grave's Brink. One Negro Stabs Another Fatally as the Result of a Grudge. Netv York, Feb. 16.—This has been a day of murderous crime in this city. Isaac Jacob, a resident of Brooklyn, killed Herman Royozinsky at daybreak in a stable at 47 Ridge street. From this poiut he went to t a murdered man's residence at 54 Ridsie street to kill his wife, Johanna. She was coming through the door as he approached, and he shot her with a revolver. The ball entered her neck on the left side close to the jugular vein. The woman's six- teen-year-old son Otto bounded from the room and leaped at the murderer of his father before a second shot could be fired. Jacob turned and fled, holding the still smoking revolver in his baud. They rau south, towards Broome street, and when near the cor- ner Jacob turned on the young man and aimed the revolver at his head. Otto dodged behind a wagon, and Jacob, seeing two police officers ap- proaching, placed the muzzle of the re- volver to his own temple and fired. He fell to the ground, with the t»lood pour- ing from the wound, and died in a few minutes. Mrs. Royozinsky ran towards the Delancey stieet police station, with the blood oozing from her wound. She had just strength to reach it, when sue fell unconscious on the floor. The po- lice followed KEK BLOODY TRATL, and were just in time to witness the last act of the tragedy. Various causes led to the shooting. The trouble began three years ago. \tthat time Jacob is said to have smuggled $7,000 worth of diamonds into this country. Fearing discovery, Jacob turned the diamonds over to the murdered man to keep for him. When the danger was over Jacob asked for the return of the diamonds. Royozinsky, it is said, refund to give them up. This led to a quarrel, and Jacob threatened the other's lite. Another cause is found in the tact that Jacob was enamored fo Royozinsky's niece. His suit pros- pered until it was learned that he had a wife and children living with him in Brooklyn. Jacob admitted this when questioned by the girl's relatives. Royo- zinsky refused him the house, and Jacob became enraged. He continued to call and insisted on marrying the girl, anyhow. Frequent and bitter quarrels ensued between the Royo- zinskys and Jacob, and the latter swore he would get even with them. Th^n they refused to allow him to enter the house at all, and Jacob became furious. Jacob went to the house at 4:30 o'clock this morning. HE KNOCKED ON THE POOR and told the Royozinskys that somebody was trying to steal tiieir horse. The elder Royozinsky is an expressman. He dressed himself, and, accompanied by Jacob, crossed the street and eniered the stable, which was just over the way. In the stable yard Jacob placed a re- volver against Royozinsky's breast and fired. The ball went through Royoz- insky's breast and he felldead without a word. Jacob coolly put the revolver in his pocket, shut and locked the stable door _ and entered_ the Royozinskys' house. Mrs. Royozinsky. in the mean- time, had become suspicious that all was not right. She was about to start after her busbana when she met Jacob and was shot as already stated. The bodies of the murdered man and suicide were taken to the station house, and the wounded woman was taken to the Hospital in a precarious condition. A bullet entered her neck and was taken out half way down her back- Both of the dead men were about forty- five years old, and Mrs. Royozinsky is fifty. An ax was found near Uoyo- zinsky's dead body, and itis supposed that Jacob intended to use it it' tiie bullet did not do the work quick enough. On Jacob's dead body was found a letter written in very bad En- glish . It said that he was born in Rus- sia and was a citizen of the United States. He told in a rambling manner of having been swindled out of money by a number of parties in this city, and ot law suits in which he was engaged and which profited him nothing. STABBhI) IN THE NECK. One Xe<jro Kills Another as the Result of a Grudge. New York, Feb. 16.—James Miller, thirty-six years old, Morris Miller, twenty-three years old, and William H. Lawrence, allcolored, lived in a tene- ment house at 1775 Third avenue. The Millers are not relatives. Last week a young colored man named Stephenson, who is related to Morris Miller, was ar- rested for passing counterfeit silver dollars. It was said Lawrence had given the information leading to his ar- rest, and Morris Miller threatened to get even with him. Shortly after mid- night this morning, Mrs. James Mil- ler became very ill,and Lawrence went after her husband, who was in a neigh- boring cigar storp. As the two returned they stumbled against Morris Miller, who was concealed behind the front door. A quarrel followed, and James Miller was stabbed twice in the neck. He screamed with agony, ran up stairs to his room and fell dead on the floor. Morris Miller was found by the police concealed in a closet on the third floor of the house. In tne closet was found a blood-stained knife. Lawrence says he believes the knife was meant for him. Morris Miller pleads self-defense as an excuse for the killing. Blew Down a Wall. N«w York. Feb. 16.—T0-night some unknown person threw a bomb into the alley-way at 149 and 151 Elizabeth street. The missile exploded, blowing down a brick wall and part of a wooden fence and shattering a window in the rear house. No person was found in the place and nobody was injured. The police are investigating the matter. No Parade This Year. Chicago, Feb. 16.—The Irish-Ameri- can council, composed of delegates from the various Irish societies in Chicago, discussed at a meeting this afternoon the annual question of parade or no parade on St. Patrick's day. The advo- cates of no parade were successful. The vote stood 48 to 18. The annual banquet and ball of the Irish-Americau club will be held at the Auditorium on the even- ing of March 17. -•»\u25a0 THE MISSOURI SLOPE. Farmers All Right Who Started Right. Special to the Globe. Washburn, N. D Feb. 16.— 0n the Missouri slope the winter of 1889-90 will be memorable for its peaceful character. Not until Feb. 4 was anything ap- proaching a storm experienced. On that date the wind blew at a terrific velocity, as if to make amends for its past sluggishness. The fall of snow has been nearly an average, and the calm weather and warm, sunny days have caused it to remain where it fell,conse- quently the sleighing has been remark- ably good during the winter. Horses and cattle are in good condition. Several bands of horses in this (McLean) county have been running at large on the range, and, with little attention from their owners, keep in prime condition. .Our people are just realizing that this part of Dakota is not yet past its experimental stage of development. Itmust be acknowledged that half a dozen years is too short a time to determine the real worth of a country. The first settlers decided that the scarcity of hay would prevent this from ever becoming a successful stock country; and, if anything, it must be wheat. The late dry seasons have had their effect. The exclusive grain pro- ducer has decided that this country is good for nothing, and is preparing to depart for some more favorable field, or has already gone in search of pastures new. We see others who possessed themselves of a cow or two, or, in some cases, a span ot mares, when they com- menced settlement, prospering steadily and well satisfied with their location. Time Ims demonstrated the actual value of our nutritious native grasses. Even in midwinter, horses displace the snow by means of pawing and devour with avidity the brown but succulent grass beneath. Cattle thrive well if fed when the snow is deep. Whenever the hills are free from -snow, they are as well satisfied on the prarie as ifit were May or June. Hence, spring often surprises the tanner with several tons of hay to be carried over for another winter. Notwithstanding the partial fail- ure of the past two sea- sons, caused by adverse condi- tions of climate, quite a large acreage of grain will be seeded the coming spring. There is a fair supply of seed on hand and the majority of farmers are deter- mined to try again. McLean county has natural advantages unsurpassed in the Northwest. An abundance of valu- able coal, timber all along its western boundary, plenty of water, a species of self-curing grass which 'Contains excel- lent feeding properties at all seasons of the year, and above all,an invigorating, salubrious - climate. These are attrac- tions which should be weighed by those seeking a home. The time is not far distant when the hardy yeoman will have taken the place of the restless rover, and the foundation of McLean's future- prosperity will be bused on a rock. : ' •'."-;-\u25a0 _\u25a0-•-• v'- HIS WIFE FAINTED. A Great Crowd at the Funeral of James. Dallas, Tex., Feb. 16.—The funeral of Thomas James, the unfortunate vic- tim of the Kilrain-Muldoon boxing match, took place at 3 o'clock this even- ing in this city.

Thousands of persons gath- ered at the undertaking establishment to see the cortege start. Fully 200 bricklayers, all dressed In mourning, formed a double line from the un- dertakers' front doors . down the street to the hearse, and through this line the pall-bearers carried their bur- den. Itwas the saddest sight seen at a funeral in Dallas for a long time. As soon as the pall-bearers emerged from the building the widow and bri le fainted aw iy into the arms of friends. Every head was uncovered and hun- dreds were in tears. Thus ended ! one of the most tragic deaths ever known in Dairas. _ THE NEVADA BANK SOLD. Mack ay, Flood and Fair Sell a Controlline Interest.

for the cold-blooded murder.Officers are in hot pursuit ofSommers, but up to midnight had notovertaken him. The remains of MissDietzen were removed to Mertz &Son'sundertaking rooms, where they wereviewed by several hundred excited peo-ple.

Horrible Treatment to West Vir-einiansbv MiiallCaps.

Wheeling, W. Va., Jan. 18.—Thered man and white cap spirit seems tobe coming to the front in certain pailsof this state. AtRockporr, Wood county,Charles Smith and his wife were bothtaken from their home and unmer-cifully beaten on the back withhickory switches and compelledto leave the \u25a0 county and thestate. The family passed throughParkersburg yesterday, and told a hbr-ril»le story of their suffering and treat-ment. The wife says that after whip-ping her husband the mob caught herwhile she was trying to escape fromthe house with their children, and tiedher toa tree. She was then beaten untilthe blood came. Mrs. Smith says thewhole cause for the outrage was her re-sistance of the improper solicitation ofa citizen of her neighborhood. AtClayCourt House a woman was also drivenaway by a mob, who visited her house,liring ernns and revolvers, and tied anote of warning to her door.

THBSAWIELLK MYSTERY.

Sixteen Thousand People Visitthe Scene.

Rochester, N. H., Feb. 16.—Sixteenthousand people have to-day visited thelocality where the dismembered re-mains of Hiram A.Sawtelle were un-earthed. Everything in the shape ofconveyance within a radius of thirtymiles has been pressed into service, andan endless array of overcrowded teamshas been the result. While there havebeen no startling developments to-day,many minor matters have been broughtto light, strengthening the chain of evi-dence. Early this morning CountySolictor Kivelsent Drs. Ham and Sulli-van from Dover, who. with Dr.Danieisof this place, made a thorough exami-nation of the body. Supt. Small hadalready telegraphed Officer Wathamthat there was a thickness of flesharound Hiram Sawtelle's finger nails,caused by disease, also a twist in hisankle, both of which the physiciansfound on the dead body. Every daybrings additional proof that the murderwas committed in New Hampshire,which has a capital penalty, whileMaine has not. John Willey, who drivesa logging team, made a statement to-day that he passed a carriage, supposedto contain Hiram and Isaac, in the pinewoods between here and East Rochester,and a" few minutes afterwards he dis-tinctly heard three shots in quick suc-cession. A number of other partiesheard the firing. Search for the missinghead is still being prosecuted.

HAWKS' SKCRErS

Reach the Sheriff Through aDeputy.

Birmingham, Ala., Feb. 16.—Lastnight Dick Hawes wrote two letters,ona to Miss May Story, the young ladywhom he married in Columbus, andthe other to Ed Weaver, ofMarion. Ind. He gave them un-stamped to Deputy Gus Ellard, whoturned them over to Sheriff Smith. Heopened them. Both said, when re-ceived the writer would be dead, whichplainly meant that Hawes intended tocommit suicide. The letter to MissStory said his late confession, in whichhe claimed that he paid John Wylie tokillhis wife and Irene, was false.

CHARGED TO MORMONS.Attempt to Steal the Utah Com-

mission's Books.Salt Lake Citt, Feb. 16.— A few

days before Christmas the Utah com-mission's office was entered by burglars,and an unsuccessful attempt made tosteal the books and papers. The Utahcommission is the body of men whohave charge of all election matters Inthis territory, and keep all the recordspertaining to elections. Itwas gener-ally supposed that the Mormons wereat the bottom of this attempted burglary,for they were desirous about that timeof procuring the registration books, ifpossible. Friday the Mormons begantheir contest in the Third districtcourt tocompel the Utah commission toissue to their candidates for the citycouncil from the Third and Fourth pre-cincts of this city certificates of elec-tion. They have the majority of votesin these precincts, and if the court de-cides that preciuct votes count for couu-

oilmen instead of the general vote ofthe city, the Mormons would have sixout of fifteen ccunciluieu. The case-was set for to-morrow for appearing,but the opinion prevails that the oldlaw is still in force and that the pre-cinct vote willnot count. Friday nightauother attempt was made to steal therecords of the I7tah commission, but asthe important papers are all in the safedeposit vault of the Union Nationalbank, nothing of consequence was ob-tained. The burglars, however, stolethe gold watch of Gen. McClernandand mo.SHOT THROUGH THE HEART.

THE PACIFIC ROADS.Reports ofSenators Frye and

Davis Accepted by theCommittee.

A BillProviding for a Refund-ingof Their Debts Agreed

Upon.

The Measure Provides Thatthe Debts Shall Be Paid in

Fifty Years.

A Mortgage on Its Propertyto Be Given by the Union

Pacific.

Washington, Feb. 16.—The senatespecial committee of Pacific railroads,after many heariugs, thorough investi-gation and careful consideration, havefinallyaccepted the reports of SenatorFrye on the Union Pacific and SenatorDavis on the Central Pacific, and agreedtoa billproviding for a refunding oftheir debts. The report on the UnionPacific reaches the following conclu-sions :

First— That the policy of building oracquiring branch lines was wise and,through the period covered by their in-quiry, honestly and economically car-ried out.

Second—

That the main line has de-rived an immense advantage from thebranches, and that there is no founda-tion for the charge that the latter havereceived undue benefit from construct-ive mileage, or otherwise, at the ex-pense of the main line.

Third—That the buildingof the Ore-gon Short line and the subsequent ac-quirement of the Oregon Railway andNavigation company's lines, instead ofbeing a menace to the interest of thegovernment, have proved to be a decidedadvantage.

Fourth— That the recent consolida-tion ot several branches, under thename of the Oregon Short Line &UtahNorthern Railway company, simplifiesthe system of the Union Pacific, makespossible a more effective and ecouomi-cal management, and in no regard evi-dences any purpose of evading the obli-gations to the government.

Filth—That the branches, instead ofbeing maintained at the expense, of themain line, contribute at least $3,000,000a year to the treasury of the company.

Sixth—

That the improvements havebeen, for several years past, greater onthe main line thau on the branches;some of them very important and ex-pensive.

Seventh— That there isno evidence ofany purpose on the part of the companyto surrender that portion of the lineover which the government has a statu-tory lien; on the contrary, every reasontending to satisfy any candid personthat no such purpose exists.

Eighth—That this is a capable, well-managed road, abundantly able to payits debts, requiring only, like everyother railroad, time in which to pay.

Ninth—That the present managementIs honestly trying to effect a fair adjust-ment with the government.

Tenth— That the interests of the gov-ernment and of the railway companywillbe promoted by a settlement, andthat one can be made "ow under whichevery dollar of the government debt,withinterest, willbe had. It finds thepresent security to be a statutory lienon aroad commencing three miles westof the Missouri river, extending to apoint fivemiles west of Ogden, and onanother road commencing one-half milewest of Kansas City and extending to apoint393 miles westerly, commencingin a prairie and ending inoue>; notenough to protect the government debt,ifitshall not be adjusted until it be-comes due, within $50,000,000; whileunder the Dill to be reported, the secu-rity obtained willbe twice the govern-ment debt invalue, and the payments,according to the terms of the bill,abso-lutely certain.

THE CENTRAL PACIFIC.The report on the Central Pacific

finds that the United States has for se-curity a statutory lien on a i 1 com-mencing at a point five miles west ofOgden and extending toSan Jose, with-out terminal facilities at either end.made subject to a mortgage to securebonds equal in amount to the originalindebtedness of the company to theUnited States: that that portion of theroad from Ogden to the westerly slopeof the Sierra Nevadas is practicallyonly a bridge, without any local busi-ness of any amount; that the roadsreaching from the main line into Ne-vada do not now pay their actual ex-Denses; that the present security of theUnited States upon this property is en-tirely inadequate; that a foreclosure ofthe lirst mortgage would substantiallyexhaust, insatisfaction thereof, the en-the property; and that itwould be in-expedient for the United States to re-deem itfrom said first mortgage, or tobecome the owner of the propertythrough redemption and foreclosure.The report finds that it Is expedient,necessary and practicable to adjust andfurther secure the indebtedness to theUnited States upon extended time at areduced rate of interest within the abil-ityof the company to pay, upon suchterms as to advance the development ofthe country through which said roadspass, and afford the inhabitants thereofreasonable rates of transportation forpassengers and freight. From the re-port it appears that the Central Pacifichas not an ability to pay at all equal tothat of the Union Pacific, buj under theterms of the bill to be reported canmake

FINAL AND FULLPAYSrENTreasonably certain. The bill asreedupon includes within its provisions theLnion Pacific Railroad company, theKansas Pacific Railway company, theCentral branch of the Union PacificRailroad company, consolidated underthe name of the Union Pacific Railwaycompany, the Central Pacific company,successor to the Central Pacific RailroadCompany of California, and the West-ern Pacific Raiiroad company. It pro-vides inthe first section for rinding thepresent worth of the indebtedness ofthe Union Pacific Railway company onIst day of July, iB6O, and for the pay-ment to the United States of thatamount, with 3 per cent interest, pay-able semi-annuaily; also a portion ofthe principal annually, so that the en-tire debt shall be paid In fifty years.Itrequires in section two that the UnionPacific Railway company shall give amortgage on all its property of 'everyname and description, real, mixed andpersonal, and also preserves to theUnited States its present statutoryHen. Itprovides in section five that, ivthe event of the failure of said com-pany toaccept the provisions of the act.there shall be carried to the credit ofthe sinking fund one-half of the com-pensation for services rendered for thegovernment, and in addition theretothe sum of §2,000.000 a year, or seventy-fiveper cent of the whole net earniiiijsof the Union Pacific Railway company;extending also the provisions of theThuraan act to the Kansas Pacific

Railway company, and to the centralbranch of the Union Pacific Railroadcompany; that

ON FAILURE TO PAY.a receiver shall be appointed to takecharge of, manage, and operate theroad, branches and lines of said com-pany until the principal and interest ofthe det>t should have been fully paid.Section 6 provides for the ascertainmentof the present worth of the debt of theCentral Pacific Railroad company; thenfor the payment of interest at the rateof 2 per cent per annum, payable semi-anuually, and of so much ot the princt-pal as shall result inthe payment of theentire debt in seventy-five years. Butinorder to relieve the road from toogreat a burden during the next tenyears, when it is necessary for ittomake somewhat extensive im-provements, it capitalizes for thattime one-half of the a per cent to bepaid. The billrequires bysection sevena mortgage of the entire property of theCentral Pacific Railroad company, iu-cluding some very important roads inCalifornia; and, also, by that sectionana a subsequent one. that the South-ern Pacific Railroad company and theCentral Pacific shall make the presentlease subsisting between them addi-tional security to the United States forthe payment of the debt. Section elevenprovides that either of the said com-panies may extend the payment of orrefund indebtedness prior to that of theUnited States to the par value of suchfirstmortgage bonds, the rate of inter-est not to exceed 5 per cent. Sectiontwelve provides that in the event ofanydefault for ninety days in the paymentof interest or principal, as required bythe act, the entire debt

GOING SOUTHWARD.

The Northern Pacific Has a BisUndertaking on Hand.

Special to the Globe.Chicago, Feb. 16.—1t has now be-

come a certainty that the Northern Pa-cific and Canadian Pacific systems areto be connected by a line running northfrom Seattle, Wash., to a junction point

in British Columbia. The proposedmovement of the Northern Pacific tocontinue its line through the northernpart of Washington to the boundaryand there make connection with theCanadian transcontinental line tap-ping Vancouver and New Westminster,and possibly to reach a good harborpoint on the Pacific ocean, is now un-derstood to be definitely settled. Pro-ceeding northward from Seattle, theHue will run north to Mohomish, thento the Skagit river, passing throughCedro, from which point It is probablethat a branch will be built toShip harbor. The line will thenrun west of, parallel with andvery close to, that of theSeattle, Lake Shore and Eastern, untilthe British boundary is reached in thevicinity of Blame. Among the pro-posed feeders to secure traffic into NewWestminster and Vancouver, across theline, are branches to Whatcom and Bel-krigham bay, and itmay hereafter bedecided to runa branch near Linden.When the fabulous cost of constructinga railroad northward through themountains ofWashington is considered,tiie immensity of this undertaking ofthe Northern Pacific can be fullyappre-ciated. Itis stated that the constructionof the new Hue will begin from Seattleinabout three weeks. Although it willrequire about three mouths to finish thepreliminary survey, the entire work ofconstruction. Engineer Huson states,can be finished by the end of the year,and the road be in condition for busi-ness. The company wil! shortly beginthe construction ot extensive railroadyards at Seattle. The estimated cost ofthese yards willbe between $400,000 and$.300,000. Ifthe intentions of the UnionPacifi.;and Canadian Pacific are to pushmatters as fast as the Northern statesits intention of doing, a great era ofrailroad building may be looked for inWashington.

Netv York, Feb. 16.—This has beena day of murderous crime in this city.Isaac Jacob, a resident of Brooklyn,killedHerman Royozinsky at daybreakin a stable at 47 Ridge street. Fromthis poiut he went to t a murderedman's residence at 54 Ridsie street tokillhis wife, Johanna. She was comingthrough the door as he approached, andhe shot her with a revolver. The ballentered her neck on the left side closetothe jugular vein. The woman's six-teen-year-old son Otto bounded fromthe room and leaped at the murdererof his father before a second shotcould be fired. Jacob turned and fled,holding the still smoking revolver inhis baud. They rau south, towardsBroome street, and when near the cor-ner Jacob turned on the young manand aimed the revolver at his head.Otto dodged behind a wagon, andJacob, seeing two police officers ap-proaching, placed the muzzle of the re-volver to his own temple and fired. Hefell to the ground, with the t»lood pour-ing from the wound, and died ina fewminutes. Mrs. Royozinsky ran towardsthe Delancey stieet police station, withthe blood oozing from her wound. Shehad just strength to reach it, when suefell unconscious onthe floor. The po-lice followed

KEK BLOODY TRATL,and were just in time to witness the lastact of the tragedy. Various causes ledto the shooting. The trouble beganthree years ago. \tthat time Jacob issaid to have smuggled $7,000 worth ofdiamonds into this country. Fearingdiscovery, Jacob turned the diamondsover to the murdered man to keep forhim. When the danger was over Jacobasked for the return of the diamonds.Royozinsky, it is said, refund to givethem up. This led to a quarrel, andJacob threatened the other's lite.Another cause is found in thetact that Jacob was enamoredfo Royozinsky's niece. His suit pros-pered until itwas learned that he had awife and children living with him inBrooklyn. Jacob admitted this whenquestioned by the girl's relatives. Royo-zinsky refused him the house, andJacob became enraged. He continuedto call and insisted on marrying thegirl, anyhow. Frequent and bitterquarrels ensued between the Royo-zinskys and Jacob, and the latter sworehe would get even with them. Th^nthey refused to allow him to enter thehouse at all, and Jacob became furious.Jacob went to the house at 4:30 o'clockthis morning.

HE KNOCKED ON THE POORand told the Royozinskys that somebodywas trying to steal tiieir horse. Theelder Royozinsky is an expressman. Hedressed himself, and, accompanied byJacob, crossed the street and enieredthe stable, which was just over the way.In the stable yard Jacob placed a re-volver against Royozinsky's breast andfired. The ball went through Royoz-insky's breast and he felldead without aword. Jacob coolly put the revolver inhis pocket, shut and locked the stabledoor

_and entered_ the Royozinskys'

house. Mrs. Royozinsky. in the mean-time, had become suspicious that all wasnot right. She was about to start afterher busbana when she met Jacoband was shot as already stated.The bodies of the murdered man andsuicide were taken to the station house,and the wounded woman was taken tothe Hospital in a precarious condition.A bullet entered her neck and wastaken out half way down her back-Both of the dead men were about forty-five years old, and Mrs. Royozinsky isfifty. An ax was found near Uoyo-zinsky's dead body, and itis supposedthat Jacob intended to use it it' tiiebullet did not do the work quickenough. On Jacob's dead body wasfound a letter written in very bad En-glish. Itsaid that he was born inRus-sia and was a citizen of the UnitedStates. He told in a rambling mannerof having been swindled out of moneyby a number of parties in this city, andot law suits in which he was engagedand which profited him nothing.

THE MISSOURI SLOPE.

Farmers AllRight Who StartedRight.

Special to the Globe.Washburn, N.D Feb. 16.—0n the

Missouri slope the winter of 1889-90 willbe memorable for its peaceful character.Not until Feb. 4 was anything ap-proaching a storm experienced. Onthat date the wind blew at a terrificvelocity, as ifto make amends for itspast sluggishness. The fallof snow hasbeen nearly an average, and the calmweather and warm, sunny days havecaused itto remain where itfell,conse-quently the sleighing has been remark-ably good during the winter. Horsesand cattle are in good condition.Several bands of horses in this(McLean) county have been runningatlarge on the range, and, withlittle attention from their owners, keepin prime condition. .Our people arejust realizing that this part of Dakota isnot yet past its experimental stage ofdevelopment. Itmust be acknowledgedthat half a dozen years is too short atime to determine the real worth of acountry. The first settlers decided thatthe scarcity ofhay would prevent thisfrom ever becoming a successful stockcountry; and, if anything, it must bewheat. The late dry seasons have hadtheir effect. The exclusive grain pro-ducer has decided that this country isgood for nothing, and is preparing todepart for some more favorable field, orhas already gone in search of pasturesnew. We see others who possessedthemselves of a cow or two, or, in somecases, a span ot mares, when they com-menced settlement, prospering steadilyand well satisfied with their location.Time Ims demonstrated the actual valueofour nutritious native grasses. Evenin midwinter, horses displace the snowby means of pawing and devour withavidity the brown but succulent grassbeneath. Cattle thrivewell iffed whenthe snow is deep. Whenever the hillsare free from -snow, they are as wellsatisfied on the prarie as ifitwere Mayor June. Hence, spring often surprisesthe tanner with several tons of hay tobe carried over for another winter.Notwithstanding the partial fail-ure of the past two sea-sons, caused by adverse condi-tions of climate, quite a large acreage ofgrain willbe seeded the coming spring.There is a fair supply of seed on handand the majority of farmers are deter-mined to try again. McLean countyhas natural advantages unsurpassed inthe Northwest. Anabundance of valu-able coal, timber all along its westernboundary, plenty of water, a species ofself-curing grass which 'Contains excel-lent feeding properties at all seasons ofthe year, and above all,an invigorating,salubrious

-climate. These are attrac-

tions which should be weighed by thoseseeking a home. The time is not fardistant when the hardy yeoman willhave taken the place of the restlessrover, and the foundation of McLean'sfuture- prosperity willbe bused on arock. : ' •'."-;-\u25a0 _\u25a0-•-• v'-
