The three Younger brothers, Cole,

Faribault for the Northfield murder
and robbery. The proceedings were
quite brief. On the 10th the grand
ury after examining seventeen wit
nesses. returned four indictments
against them.
First. for participating In the muir
der Of Haywood, the cashier. Second,
for the murder Of GUstavson. the in.
offensive Swede, who was killed on
the street. Third, for the shooting of
Bunker. the teller. Fourth, for rob-
bing the bank.
Sheriff Barton produced the prison
ers in Court. Judge Lord presiding. on
the afternoon Of the 10th, to plead to
the indictment. They were handcuff-
ed together. Bob on one side Of Cole
and Jim on the other. They were
neatly dressed. and cleanly shaved.
They manifested little nervousness,
more probably from their embarrass-
ing position than from any fear Of the
popl,lace. The State was represented
by County Attorney Baxter. and the
prisoners by Mr.. Kutledge. Of Madelia,
and Mr.. Batchelder. Of Faribault. They
were granted until the 18th to plead,
and this was extended until the Goth,
owing to the absence Of Mr.. Rutlege
At ten O'Clock on the morning Of the
10th. the three brothers were again
brought into court. Their aunt and
sister were present and seated neal
them. After comforting with their
counsel Judge Lord called upon then
to plead to the first indictment, forbeins
accessory to the murder Of Haywood
Cole Younger first responded and en-
tered a plea Of guilty. Bob and jim
followed with similar pleas. The Coun
ty Attorney then asked that jury b
impanneled to fix the penalty. Thi
. motion was opposed by counsel for tn
defense and the question was takel
.. under advisement by the court.
II Upon the re-assembling Of the conr
at . p. m. Judge Lord overruled th'
. motion for jury To fix the penalty
!. and Immediately sentenced them =
.. imprisonment for life at hard labor il
the Saltwater prison.
The robbers expressed their gratif
cation at the termination Of the tria
, and thought it was the highest penalt
/ they could expect. Cole said he ha'
seen pretty nearly all the world an
was ready to retire to private life.

Pools on Election.

New York Letter. Nov rs.
OF all the utterly disconsolate men
in the world, those fellows in this city
whose money is tied up in the pools
sold on the election results are the
most miserable. Those who bet on
the Republican side will not give up,
while those on the Democratic side
who imagine they are winners are un-
able to get winnings. 1t is estimated
that there is an aggregate of S2.500.-
900 held in the pool-boxcs, OF which
John Morrisey hclds 81 100000. The
feelings of those who have made in.
vestments in the pools may be imag-
ined when a report was bulletined and
extensively circulated last Saturday
evening that one of the booksellers
had absconded that day with
over half-million dollars of pool
money. All day Sunday inquiries
were made among the booksellers as to
the truth of the story. and not until
Sunday papers definitely contradict
ed the rumor did the excitement
finally suhside.

Guards, the crack military company

in view of the great flourish made at

about Mr.. Ely's generosity in pre-
