The Outrage on the hudson Road.

couple of hard looking thugs named John
O'Brien and Joseph Graham were arralgned at
the police court yesterday morning, charged
with committing an assault on Hudson road
saloon keeper named Billiers. The charge was
also coupled with robbery, both crimes having
been committed on Monday, the 9th inst. On
the evening of that day the prisoners entered
the saloon, situated about two miles from this
city, on the Hudson road, and after indulging
in an orgie. in the course of which they insulted
Billiers' wife, they wound up by striking him
with beer glass and stealing his watch and re-
volver.
In company with the prisoners was young
outlaw named eastman. who unfortunately
has eluded all attempts at capture. After the
outrage had been perpetrated the roughs
skipped out, being captured at Elk River by
Officer Clouse last Wednesday. The missing
property, consisting of a watch and revolver,
was found on the person of O'Brien. The
principal witness, Mr.. Billiers was put on the
stand and testified to the disgraceful conduct
of the villains, the account not differing from
what has already been given. Mrs. Billiers
substantiated her husbands testimony, and
the men were held to the grand jury in $500
bail and committed.

The st. p. III. d III. Accidents.

The body of the Canadian immigrant, Mr.
Gould, who was killed in the accident which
occurred near West Union, in Todd county, be-
fore daylight Sunday morning, arrived here
yesterday and, having been properly cared for,
under direction of the company, was forwarded
East by express. His aon, daughter and
nephew, VINO were accompanying him North,
went East on the same train to join the mother
of the first two, Mrs. Gould, who remained in
Ontario when her family started on their I'M
fortunate Journey. The nephew, who was said
to have been injured, was not much hurt. II
is said that Mr.. Gould hesitated about loading
the car, the breaking down of which caused his
death. It was Canadian car and had seen
good deal of service, but when inspected here
it's running gear appeared to be all
sound and serviceable. The breaking
of a wheel of this car, in which
Mr.. Gould was riding at the time, in charge of
his household goods and stock, threw the Car
from the track and turned it across the track
where it was crushed by four or five of the
following cars being wrecked against it. In
these other cars few head of stock were
killed. The track was cleared as soon as DOS
sible and the property saved from the crushed
cars, except Mr.. Gould's, has been forwarded
North.
About the same hour another fatal accident
occurred on the Breckenridge division near
Herman, in Grant county. One train ran into
another which was moving slowly or had
stopped ahead of it. Four lumber cars were
wrecked and one or more stock cars, and an
immigrant from Massillon, O., whose name is
believed to be Simmons, was killed. His body
was retained at Herman for an inquest. Full
particulars of the accident had not bsen re-
ceived here yesterday.
A third but not fatal accident is reported
from Minneapolis as having occurred near Way
zata station Saturday about P. NJ. The sec
ton men had rail up when west bound
freight train came along and the engine and
three cars were ditched. They were got onto
the track again yesterday, not much damaged.
The engineer and fireman sruck on ground well
mixed with water and were not even famed or
bruised.

The general freight agents of the Chicago,

Messrs. Merrill, Swan, Van Horne and Law
Ter, in their special car, attached to the Sioux
City train, left here yesterday afternoon to in
spect the recent acquisitions of the Chicago,

panys lines through Iowa.
A statement below indicates that tidal wave
of immigration is pouring over the Northern
Pacific country, as it is over the Red River val
ley and into Manitoba. 1t would be moderate
to estimate that Is, 700 will be added this year
to the populations of the northwest quarter of
Minnesota, the northeast quarter Of Dakota
and the province of Manitoba.
''Three of Kind" is the way the Mlnneap-

night.
Special trains are to be run from Detroit to
Chicago every day of this week to bring through
immigrants destined to the valley of the Red
River of the North and to the Northern Pacific
country.
Since the Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul
company has got control of the Dakota Southern
road, (from Sioux City to Yankton) it charges
local rates on that road to connecting compan-
les, and is thereby succeeding in forcing
freighters to abandon the st. Paul & Sioux
City and other roads.
The superlatively innocent way in which
railroad men can say 'There's no news to-day"
when half a trains off the track, cars wrecked
and men and animals killed. is amazing to
any news-hunter's mind-but not more so than
the fact that dozen or two railway officials
and all their employees will be wholly ignorant
of such an affair on their own road until they
read about it in the newspapers.

The Yellowstone Halzev.

Mr.. J. T. Dodge. the engineer who built the
river division of the Chicago, Milwaukee & st..
Paul railway, having, with the assistance of
officers of Gen. Miles command, made winter
reconnaissance of the Yellowstone Valley, has
this spring taken the field with a corps of en-
gineers to continue the Northern Pacific sur
vey, and location into and up that valley, on
the completion of which, or pending it, the
contracts for construction of the roadbed will
be let. Mr.. Dodge confirms the reports of
army officers and others who have explored the
Yellowstone country as to its characteristics,
and says it will prove the best of the stock
raising belt of the continent. He adds, also,
that he is satisfied, from his experiences of
last winter, that the climate of the Yellowstone
region is much milder than any climate in the
same parallel east of the Missouri.

A GLOOMY OUTLOOK FOR T11DEN.

Il GLOOMY OUTLOOK FOR TILDEN.
The last few days have Teen fateful ones
for Samuel j. Tilden, aud have thrown con-
siderable light upon the political situation at
pay heed. For several months the Tilden
and anti Tilden factions of the Democratic
party have been comforting at odd times
with view to securing harmony in the party
so that success in November might be d
possibility. These efforts have proved abor-
tive, and it is announced that the oonven-
tions of both factions will be held at SYRIA
cuse on the Goth inst, and in all probabili-
ty two delegations will go to Cincinnati in
June. But this is not the worst of the sit
uation as viewed from Tilden standpoint.
A very considerable portion of the party,
which refused to enter into the Tammany
movement for dissenting convention, have
gone to work with a will to secure the selec-
ton of delegates to the regular convention
at Syracuse pledged to support delegate
ticket opposed to Tilden, and in several
parts of the State they have been sue
cessful beyond their expectations.
In Oneida and Onondaga counties they have
swept all before them, and in Albany, Erie
and Rensselaer, they have gained important
advantages to which they may yet add in
other sections of the State. It is very evil
dent, therefore, that Tilden is not going to
have a walk-over, even in the convention
appointed by his own committee.
In Pennsylvania the indications are that
the factional quarrel will be unreconciled.
Wallace, representing the Hancock faction,
and Randall, representing the Tilden
faction, have long been at swords points,
and a struggle for supremacy in State affairs
has Just terminated in the defeat of the lat
ter. Efforts to harmonic have proved in
effectual, and probably large majority of
the delegation from that State will go to
Cincinnati pledged to oppose Tilden from
first to last. Louisiana has chosen Han
cock delegates, and it looks as if TiIden
could hope for but little support
from any portion of the South. Several
of the Northern States will also send del
egations opposed to him, SO that it will be
almost an impossibility for him to secure
the two-thirds necessary to secure the nom
nation.
The prospect, it must be acknowledged, is
not very encouraging for Mr.. Tilden and his
supporters. Almost all the States of the
North have candidates of their own for the
Presidency. Indiana will present Hendricks,
Ohio Thurman, Illinois Palmer or Morrison,
Pennsylvania Hancock, Delaware Bayard,
and perhaps New Jersey will Offer as eandi-
date Mcclellan, whose name is yet p1wer
in the land. With such an array of candi-
dates, each supported by the delegations
from their own States, splendid opportuni-
ties for combinations will be presented, and
it is quite likely that all combinations will
be directed against Tilden. 1t must be con-
fessed that his chances are none of the best.

BURMAH has been the scene of so many
atrocities of late that it would seem to be the
duty of the civilized nations of the world to
interfere and put stop to the inhuman
slaughter which has so frequently caused a
shudder of horror to pass over the world.
The sacrifice of seven hundred human be-
ings under the walls of Mandalay as a pro-
pitiatory offering to the gods for the resto-
ration of the kings health, was even worse
than the slaughter of the princes that oc-
CURED in July last. Something ought to be
done to put stop to these inhuman prac-
tices.

Northern Pacific Land Sales. Etc.

During the month of March the land depart
ment of tho Northern Pacific sold from the
company's Eastern division grant 1858 acres
to settlers. In the quarter of this year the
government land Offices have sold 4S,500 acres
within the compauy's grant limits in Mime
sofa and, during the same time the government
land Office at Fargo has sold ia, 500 with
in the company's land grant limits in Dakota.
During March 1885 immigrant passage tick
cts were sold at the Northern Pacific office in
st. Paul and many other immigrants went
through without calling for the special rates
allowed those moving into the Northern Pacific
country. During the month also 205 car loads
of settlers goods were taken out from the St.
Paul depot, of which about one-tenth were for
points between Brsinerd and Fargo and about
nine-tenths for points west of the Red River
of the North.
