loss of Wash Fisher, MORALLY wounded.
Murder In Minneapolis. .s p
6 VIM. H. Side, son of II. G. Sidle,
president OF the First National Bank OF Mime
apolis, was fatally wounded by girl named
Kate Noonan, on Friday evening, the 10th in
that city. The girl claims to bear the relation
of discarded mistress or victim OF the wound
ed man, and has heretofore instituted pro-
ceedings against w. G. Sdle and others, to
recover damages for alleged false imprson-
ment. The shooting occurred in the vicin-
ity of the Nicollet House. The young man was
as listed into the Office OF the Gas Light Com
pany, but was subsequently removed into the
Nicollet House where he could be made CON-
Portable as possible while the surgeons (sev-
eral OF whom were presently were examining
the wound, which seems to have been pro-
duced by a ball from pistol OF small calibre.
At first the wound was not thought to be ia
tai, but change Tor the worse occurred at a
late hour in the evening, and he died before ~.
The woman was at once arrested, and after
reaching the lookup she informed Chief
Munger Chat she had shot Will Sidle, and
thrown the revolver away, and stated where
it might be found. She further asked the
Chief if Sidle had been badly hurt, and when
informed that his wound was dangerous she
expressed a strong desire to see him, and
wished the return of the pistol, so that she
could kill herself This demand could no. be
complied with, Of course. During the eve
ming up to late hour she appeared greatly
excited, her condition bordering on insanity.
In the opinions of the police authorities, it is
quite evident from her action and statements,
both prior and subsequent to the shooting,
that this terrible, bloody episode on the
streets was nothing more than the active exc
cution OF plan formed months ago, and that
the arrest upon which the action tor false i'm
prisopment is based was judicious move
ment and thoroughly detensible, no matter
from what point it may be considered. After
the shooting she frankly assumed the respon
sibility for the crime, and expressed an evil
IDENTITY sincere desire to destroy her own lie
and thus remove her shame and her revenge,
and blot out from her own sight at least what
must ever remain a pitiul story.
Mexico.
Brownsville, Feb. 7-Gen. Revueltas
and several subordinate officers are preparing
in evident haste TO quit Matamoras. 1t is un-
derstood that they will cross the Rio Grande
aid take steamer at Brazoo, Texas, f. r New
Orleans. Although Revueltas tor weeks vast
has proclaimed he was acting by autl ority
OF Diaz, it is now believed his PRETENDED or
ders from Diaz were not genuine, and that at
ter pluDdering all the foreign merchants he
could his flight is to avoid General Canales,
who is said to be on the way to take command
of this frontier for the Diaz Government. It
is not known who will command until Canales
comes, but it is feared that Cardinas' banditti
will come in, and there is consequently great
excitement and apprehension among foreign
ers of their being again plundered.
