There are indications that the Trunk line

1t is CERTAIN that meeting of the Trunk line
managers was held Saturday, and uniform
rates on both east and west bound freIghts
were established on Monday. The schedule
of west bound rates was made law on account
of the necessity of meeting time contracts on
westbound freights. 1t is believed that west
bound rates will rule low until July, but that
east bound rates will be quietly advanced as
fast as practicable. Cornelius Vanderbilt said
Monday he thought the rates would not be

WAS IT MURDER OR SUICIDE?
Trial of Mrs. Louisa Patterson at LIE Sueur
For the Murder Of Her Husband.
Especial Telegram to the Globe

LIE SUEUR CENTER, Jan. 17.-An adjourned
term of the dis trict court, Judge j. L. Mac
Donald presiding, was begun here yesterday,
for the trial of Mrs. Louisa Patterson. who is
charged with the murder of her husband,
ton, IN this county, on the 9Th day of October
last. The indictment, under which
she is tried, was found against
her by the grand jury at the last November
term of this court. The prosecution is repre-
sented by County Attorney Hessian, and A.
W. Bangs, and F. Caldwell, and the defence by
II. g. Peck and T. w. Hammond. The un-
controverted facts are that Patterson was
found dead upon the hay in his barn, on the
day above named with bullet hole through
him. The theory, and claim of the defense is
that Patterson committed suicide and the prose-
cution claim that it was deliberate
murder by the wife, who, to conceal her
crime, SO arranged the body and surroundings
as to make it appear that it was suicide. The
evidence is all circumstantial, and both sides
are quite reticent as to what their proof is to
be. The jury, upon request of counsel, were
sent out this forenoon to view the premises,
where the bloody deed was committed-by
either Patterson himself or the defendant.
The opening argument was made by the
the county attorney, and the put
ting in of the evidence will begin in earnest
this afternoon. There is very little
partially or prejudice manifested by the gen.
eral public, but the sentiment of the neigh
bors of the parties seems to be against the de-
fendant. The jury is composed of fair minded
and intelligent men, and she will have fair
trial.
circumstance which will no doubt bear
strongly against the defendant is that she and
her husband lived unhappily together, and
that Just before his death she commenced a
suit for divorce, against which he was prepar-
ing to defend vigorously. 1t is also
claimed that she possesses charac-
ter and disposition which make
her capable of committing the fearful crime
charged against her But the evidence may
give different coloring to all this.
The prisoner is a woman of apparently thir-
ty-tve or forty years of age, quite tall and with
a masculine cast of countenSnce, and, upon
The whole, cannot be said to be prepossessing
in appearance. The case is decidedly inter-
esting one, and one which, if tried in large
city, would receive large share of attention
from the reporters of the daily papers. 1t
seems little odd to find in this little hamlet,
in the midst of the "Big Woods" an impor-
tant trial OF this character going on.

A SPOONEY CRANK.
4 Prisoner in the Jail Attempts Suicide
with Spoon Handle and Gets Left.

with Spoon Handle and Gets Left.
There are good many ways in which an in
dividual who is tired of existence may seek to
end his days by committing hsra kiri or
death by suicide. A few seek to make their
exit by the quiet and bloodless method of cold
poison; others compress their windpipe and
officiate as their own hangman by employing
the halter; some seek the dark waters of the
flood, which Is enormously supposed not to
give up the dead, aid Others again, more san
culinary, resort to the dagger and the death
dealing bullet of the revolver.
But for man to try and cut his
throat with spoon seems too ridiculous and
absurd for even the wide latitude of modern
ingenuity to attempt and certainly too remark
able for common belief.
Nevertheless this extraordinary feat was at
tempted by supposed crank in the county
Jail yesterday afternoon.
About 1 o'clock the attention OF Jail
keeper Fallon was attracted by series of
shrieks proceeding from one of the cells in
north corridor of the Jail.
fastening to the cell indicated by the cries
prisoner named Minor Rood was found
stretched on his bed saving away at his throat
with the handle OF dinner spoon and with.
ing as if in the most intense agony. Jailer
Fallon sprang towards the would-be suicide
and after brief struggle succeeded in disarm-
ing the crank of his not very formidable
weapon.
Upon examination it was found that he had
only been slightly bruised, and picking up
switch the jailor gave him well merited
spanking. He afterwards was turned loose in
the corridor, and appeared to be as we'll and
eonterted as ever.
The would-be suicide was indicted by the
grand jury on the charge Of forgery, and is
awaiting his trial. There is no doubt but the
man is crazy crank.

until congress takes steps to declare
forfeiture of the land grant, it remained
in full force and effect; and that the
grant must be held to be the same as it
existed on the day when.it was made and
accepted by the company. On this opin-
ion Secretary Schurz decided in favor Of
the Northern Pacific Railroad company.
But in both cases the record shows that
he was not only not used by the railroad
companies, but-in one case-actually
decided against them, and in the other,
threw the responsibility on the attorney
general, of deciding the law of the case,
and then based his action on the opinion
of that officer.

Mysterious Disappearance.

DETROIT, Mich, Jan. 1s.-A young man
named L. H. Higgins, recently in business at
Osceola, this state, disappeared from this city
last night under somewhat peculiar circum-
stances. His hat and ulster were found on the
deck of ferryboat plying between here and
Windsor. He had just paid his bill at the ho-
tel, and announced his intention of leaving the
city by the afternoon train Whether he jump
ed into the water from the ferry, or whether
his disappearance was caused for sinister pur-
poses, is what divides opinions hereabouts. He
had the appearance of quiet, straightforward
person. He has a wife at OsceOla.
