NO INSPECTIONS MADE.
Thomas Ireton, Of the foreman at the shaft said

New YORK. April 15.-Prices were inclined
to be trife better for an hour or so this
morning, and the market appeared rather
firm for most stocks. A selling movement
then set in in Missouri Pacific and Jersey
Central, which caused break of l per cent.
in them. This weakened the balance, and
created an unsettled feeling throughout.
The fact that Mr.. Goud's properties received
no support whatever, was looked upon as an
unfavorable omen. Rochester 81 Pittsburg
was again in the dumps, and Oregon railway
distinguished itself by dropping from rs to rs.
When Missouri Pacific touched S2H and
Western Union went below 6S the demorali-
zation seemed complete. The shorts took
hold in the last hour and their purchases
caused quite Il rally, sufficient indeed to
carry many stocks above the opening figures.
There was considerable activity at the finish,
with reactions all along the line. There are
few who believe that there is anything per-
manent in the improvement to-day, and
there was plenty Of evidence that any guam
tity OF long stocks were marketed on the
rallies.

BecIOuding a Title.

An interesting suit was fled in the district
court yesterday by II. Schur1neier and E.
Good, plaintiffs, VS.. j. c. Bettengen and his
wife, defendants. Plaintiffs are tenants in
common and owners in fee of property in
block of Lyman Dayton's addition, and
claim that j. R. Cabanne, real estate dealer,
claiming to be agent of Good, Feb. 8, 1854
for $3.50 earnest money and a bargain to pay
81, $50 cash, and the same amount at the end
of one year, to be secured by mortgage,
wrongfully executed an instrument and had
it recorded, making sale of this
property to the Bettengens. Plaintiffs
claim Cabaune hard no authority so to act
pld them no money and that it was an at
tempt on his part and on the part of the de-
PENDANTS to speculate on the prop
erty and force the plaintiffs to sell
it on terms to which they had not agreed and
had no knowledge of whatever. Further
more, they had never seen the Bettengen's
money or mortgage. They ask the
court for $1,000 damages for clouding the
title to their property, and that the defend
ants be compelled to surrender their false
agreement, and if they do not, to have the
record of the instrument annulled in the reg

The Trial of Rheams.
Especial Telegram to the Globe.

MooRHEAD, April 15,-The trial of Henry
Rheams, for the murder of Frank Chase last
September was commenced yesterday, and
the testimony was all in tonight. The
murder occurred at Glyndon, and the story
is that the two had quarrel, and Rheams
went and borrowed revolver and came
back and shot Chase. The testimony seems
to show that Rheams borrowed the revolver
for self protection, but again meeting Chase
and his brother the row was renewed, and
Rheams shot first in the air and then at
Chase, who was making for him. This
theory is given color by the fact that both
Chases were large, muscular men, while
Rheams is small, thin man, weighing
about 125 pounds. Arguments will begin
tomorrow.

They arrived there about day and

Pretty soon q negro boy was aroused

saw the men and went up stairs in
the barn. Boggan's voice was soon
heard up there talking with him and
in about fifteen minutes he camc down

around him and his double-barreled
gun in his hand. He started sideways
towards the swamp, which was only
800 yards distant, and was looking
back in the direction where the
men were supposed to be; as he near

and when within 20 feet of Hilton and

that was inflicted on the posse and as
soon as it was found out in Chcraw
and the fact made known that he was

diatcly made up and presented him.
While all this was going on Sam Lee
ran out of the dwelling house, which
was surrounded by Rhodes and Hen
bricks, gun in hand, and fired at
::hodes. Hendricks, on the opposite
side of the house, shot him through
the leg, from under the house. Rhodes
in the meantime fired two or three
times at him, and made him throw up
his hands and surrender. Lee has
been committed to Jail, and Cash will
be buried to-day in his fathers yard,
at Cash's Depot. The posse was
armed with the latest improved rifles,

Col. Cash was not there; he remained

over the State. People appear to be
almost unanimous in naming King as

everything it contained stolen. An
attempt was made to blow open the
door of the vault with powder, but
this failec, and the burglars broke q

twenty inch brick wall of the vault.
The amount Of money stolen is not

from 81 900 to $4,000. There is sup
posed to be. nearly $4,000 worth of
scrip also stolen. The City council
has offered a reward of 81 900. Tools
with which the entrance was effected
were stolen from a blacksmith shop
near by, which leads to the belief that
the robbery was not. committed by
professionals.
