Testimony Gircn yesterday for the De-
fense--Each AllOred Ttc0 Hours to Sun
Upand Written Briefs to be Filled In Id
dition.
The committee met yesterday morning at 9
o'clock, and during the morning and afternoon
sessions examined some seven or eight wit
nesses, all in behalf of Judge Page.
D. B. Coleman, grand juror, testified with
reference to Judge Pages charges and instruc-
tions to the grand jury, which, he said, were
neither harsh nor unjust Witness also gave a
history of the Ingmundson affair.
Messrs. G. J. Felch, A. J. French, and H. E.
Tanner, county commissioners, were also
sworn and testified as to the conduct of Judge
Page before the county commissioners in the
Riley and Baird cases, and it is said, sustained
very generally the evidence Of Judge Page.
Another witness was w. H. Merrick, ESQ.,,
attorney -at-law, of Austin. who testified as to
what transpired in the interview of Judge Page
with Juror Levi Foss His evidence contradic-
ted the latter's statements throughout. This
witness ais testified with reference to Ingmund-
sons speech in convention, also to Judge Pages
treatment of attorneys, which he said was
uniformly fair.
F. w. Allen, turnkey, swore that in the inter-
view with Vaudeville, Judge Page did not ask
any such question as 'sWhat dirty political
work have you done for Sheriff Hall that he
wants to reward your"
The committee took recess from noon till
o'clock, when they again adjourned to this
morning. The work of the committee is fast
draying to a close-the respondents evidence
being about all in. This morning four wit
nesses will be called by the prosecution in re-
buttal-two of whom are r. N. Hall and Judge
D. B. Johnson, who arrived last evening.
The committee have determined on allowing
each side two hours to sum up, and have also
granted them the privilege Of filing written
briefs. After finishing the testimony to-day

But one thing was wanted, the right of
way, that universal bugbear of railway
enterprises. To make arrangements for
securing the right of way meeting was held
in River Falls on Saturday night, the pro-
ceedlngs OF which were unanimous, enthusi-
astic and successful. This meeting was adj
dressed by Messrs. Thompson, Merriam,
Stickney and Sabin, and sufficient subscrip-
tons were gathered at the meeting to meet
the purchase of the right of way through
and near the village, and to
provide the depot grounds Meanwhile,
the city of Hudson has not been behind
hand. Her citizens have responded with
alacrlty and generosity, and the right of way
may now, to all intents and purposes, be
deemed an accomplished fact; all that re-
manins being the due execution of the legal
preliminaries. When these are effected a
corps of engineers will be Immediately

lowed, within three weeks, by the graders
and track layers: all of this portion of the
enterprise, together with the equipment, the
company having the matter in charge being
ready to perform.
St. Paul has more than passing interest
in the Hudson & River Falls railroad. The
enterprise, when fully accomplished, will be
the tapping of another stream of trade and
directing its course hitherward to establish
new business connections to the mutual prof

dertaking be hailed by st. Paul. as it doubt
less is and will be.

Is He a Murderer I?

A supposed murderer was arrested in
Lanesboro, in this State, on the 9Th. in the
person of Karl Kluster. The arrest was
effected in consequence of a description for
warded from Bloomington Ill. supplemented
with reward of $780,, the crime having
been committed there in November last.
The prisoners appearance and the descrip-
ton closely tally. Kluster is miller, and
served in the Austrian Prussian war, for
which he has medal as is the sought for
criminal. In his account of himself, the
prisoner stated that, among other wander
ings. he had visited st. Paul, and inquiries
at police headquarter developed the fact that
man answering his description was here
last summer. The prisoner has been lodged
in jail at Preston, and officers from Bloom
ington have been dispatched for him.

Sd. Egbert, registering from Minneapolis,
appeared some time ago at the Warren
house, representing that he was man of
extensive property in the shape of real es-
tate, situated in Illinois and this State. His
first bills were paid promptly, but delin-
quency in the later ones became SO frequent
that they amounted to $50, the difficulty of
disposing of any portion of his vast estates
being Haunted in excuse for his temporary
impecuniosity. On Saturday he attempted
to steal SIS from fellow-b oarder, with whom
he was negotiating to sell supposititious
tract of land at Granite Falls. The attempt
at theft proved his BETRAYAL as frst-class
dead beat, and he has skipped with a $50
unpaid board bill behind him. 1t has since
been discovered that he similarly victimized
a landlord in Wells to the tune of some $50.

Pierce county, Wis.,, is divided on its west
from Minnesota by the narrow waters of the
lower st. Croix. Small in point of area. it
yet ranks among the most important and
wealthy shires of its State, and. in point of
population, is one of the most thickly settled
in Wisconsin in proportion to its size, con-
tanning, as it does, from 10000 to 1900
souls. Its inhabitants are noted for their in
dustry and thrift, which have necessarily
created more or less activity in trade. With
in its borders is situated the thriving
and enterprising village of River Falls,
with it's $500 inhabitants. its six large
water driven Touring mills turning out the
finest grades of flour, and its State Normal
school. It will then be readily comprehend
ed that Pierce county, in general, and River
Falls, IN particular, are desirable points at
which to establish trade relationships These,

II has been known to the public for some time
that negotiations were pending for change
If ownership in the st. Paul & Pacific road,
and many premature reports have been cir
cnIated in consequence thereof. The GLOBE,
however, is able to give the first intelligence
this morning of the actual completion of the
transaction, the perfection of details being
all that now remains.
The transaction in question includes the
purchase of the majority of bonds of the road
conveying the main, branch and extension
lines. The bonds aggregate $24,OOO,OOO
and of these the new owners have obtained
over two thirds. It gives us pleasure to an
nounce that Norman w. Kittson and James j.
Hill of st. Paul with the aid of Canadian as
sociates have made this important purchase.
These parties will own the line from Saint
Paul to Breckenridge, distance of PIT
miles. The line from Breckenridge to Glyn-
don, connecting with the Northern Pacific
a distance of 46 miles. The line from
Glyndon to Snake river, SO miles north with
II mile branch from Crookston to Fishers
Landing. Also the line from St. Paul to
Sank Rapids, rs miles in extent and from
Sank Rapids to Melrose, 36 miles.
The new purchasers will also build the
coming season the line from Crookston to
Pembina connecting with the Canadian Pa
cific and beyond, and the line from Melrose
to Alexandria, IS miles.
The Canadian Pacific will complete the
seventy miles of road from Pembina to Win
nipeg, 50 that next fall passenger can take
his seat on the cars at the foot of Sibley
street, in ST. Paul, and be whirled along to
Winnipeg without change of cars. The ex-
tension of the Canadian Pacific westward
will also add greatly to the prosperity of this
road, and St. Paul will be the practical ter
minus of two Pacific railroads. The advan-
tages are too great to be reasonably esti-
mated.
These lines of road are now being operated
by Horace Thompson, Edmund Rice and
John S. Kennedy, as trustees for the bond
holders. These are also foreclosing for the
bondholders and the new parties, though
owning the ma jority of the bonds, cannot
take formal possession until the fore
closure proceedings now pending are
completed, which will probably be in few
months. This will not prevent the building
of the lines named, or i'll any way interfere
with the programme of the new owners as
the foreclosure is merely question of time
BY next fall the new proprietors will be OPP
Grating nearly 600 miles of road and have
100000 acres of lands for sale.
We congratulate the people both of the
city and State upon this important transfer.
It has placed within the control of our own
citizens most important net work of rail
with envious eyes. We welcome Messrs
Kittson. Hill and their associates
most cordially, and trust their
Investment will be productive of rich returns.
In fact, under the liberal policy which we
know they will pursue, it can not fail to be
otherwise.
