Livingston county recently furnished
a curious result of murder trial. One
Offield was tired Tor murder in the first
degree, and the jury found him guilty
OF murder in the second degree. A
new trial was granted. for some reason
or other. and when this came up the
cour, instructed the jury that. as the de.
fendant had already been tried once for
murder in the first degree and not found
guilty, if they believed him guilty OF
that crime they must acquit him. The
jury did believe him guilty OF murder in
the first degree and, under the instruc-
tions. returned verdict OF not gui ty.
AS the case stands, the prisoner goes
tree because one jury believed him gull.
ty OF murder in the second degree, and
another of murder in the first degree,
and under the law he cannot be punish
ed for either. There seems TO be a good
deal more of law than of justice in this

The prosperity of town depends, to
a very large extent. upon the country
surrounding it. and if the merchants of

pie in the country. at least majority of
them. to find out what inducements
they are offering their customers? We
hear much complaint that our farmers
and even some OF our citizens go else
where to buy their goods. when it is
said that they can do as we'll nearer

farmers generally read newspapers
more than they get credit for. and in
times of scarcity oil money they are very
apt to scan closely the papers in the nope
of finding a chance of supplying their
necessarics at the lowest possible cost to
them. If they find it lew miles fur
ther from them than their own neighbor-

those few miles to procure articles which

FLOUR AND WHEAT.

st. Louis Millers Shutting Down-The
Price Of Wheat too High. or of Flour too
Low. -..a. ...,.
ST. LOUIS, Nov. l4.-There is movement
among the millers here to close their mills I'M
til the price of wheat declines. Two mills closed
to-day. Two more will shut down as soon az
the wheat they have on hand is ground. This
action will probably become general. The prin-
cipal reason assigned for this il that -four
is below the price of wheat and can only be
made at loss. Many millers have already lost
heavily on contracts made when wheat was less
than 81 bushel, and they see no prospect of
profit in the immediate future. But little
-four has been shipped from here the last three
weeks, and large amounts are in store,
more than enough to supply all
demands for some time. Mi1lers are satisfied
there must be a decline in wheat pretty soon.
At all events they will not purchase until
prices fall or there is a margin on flour.

Mrs. Anna sieg, who ordered her son to shoot
and kill Vim. Bruckman, and was indicted for
murder in the first degree, was found guilty of
manslaughter in the fourth degree, and was
sentenced to the penitentiary for two years by
Judge Young. She was ably defended by p.
A. Dufour, Attorney General Wilson and Coun-
ty Attorney WENDELL for the State. Charles
Sieg, her son, who did the shooting, withdrew
his former plea of not guilty and pleaded
guilty of manslaughter in the fourth degree.
He was sent to the Reform school by the court.
ssas HISTORY OF THE CASE.
Events happen so rapidly that the tragedy
alluded to above may have passed out Of mind,
and a resume here may not be amiss.
On the 9th of July Sheriff Nugent, of Wright
county, lodged Mrs. Anna Sieg and her son
Carl, II years old, in Ramsey county Jail for
the murder of VIM. Bruckman. Carl fred the
shot which killed Bruckman, at the command
of his mother.
The scene of the tragedy was on Mrs. Sieg's
farm, near Howard Lake, and it took place on
Saturday. July 9Th. VIM. Brakeman. &C.
companied by brother Robert Bruckman, Is
years old, and Robert Wolf, of the same age,
called at Mrs. sieg's to take her to task for
some scandalous rumors shout the Bruckman
family, which they had traced to her. Hot
words led to angry demonstrations. which finally
eliminated in blows. In the melee, Mrs. Sieg
charges that William Bruckman struck her
with club, at which she called to her son
Carl, who, near the door of their shanty, had
been spectator of the difficulty. Carl rushed
into the house, and returning to the side of his
mother with gun, discharged it at William
Bruekman and killed him.
The particulars of the trial have been given
in the GLOBE, and with tho resume of the case
here given makes the story complete in all par
ticulars.
