Special to the Globe.
DULUTH, Mimi. Nov. 30.-A mysterious
murder case, perhaps without parallel IN
some respects in the history OF crime, was
unearthed this morning in the Northern
Pacific yards here. a. E. Pruden, gram
inspector, was examining the cars OF WheaI
that came in last night from Dakota. Upon
opening the door OF Car No. 1916, Northern
Pacific. he was Mortified and almost para
lived to discover the dead body OF a man
living prone across the center OF tne car,
with his face and head besmeared with
clotted blood. The man was apparently
about 35 years old. of rather heavy build,
and about five feet, four inches III height,
with a small chin beard and moustache OF
dark color He was clad in work kmen's
clothes. consisting Of heavy datk-blue
peaiacket over a blue macklnaw, and wore
checkered pantaloOnS, with Stoga boots and
an imitation fur cap. His pockets had been
turned inside out and a search of the sur
roundings furnished no clue to his identity.
A more thorough search, however, revealed
a peculiar pocket on the inside of his pants.
which contained a wallet with S465 in paper
money, evidently overlooked by the mur-
derers and beyond doubt the cause of the
crime. Aside from this nothing was found
on his person. Lying in the wheat
alongside of the body was found the fol-
lowing note, which may or may not have a
bearing on the case:
Sanborn, Oak, Nov. 26.-Mrs. Burke: In
closed please find s12 for which please send
receipt. Many thanks. Just got my pay for
September work. Hope you and the folks
are all well and happy. As for myself. am
well, but not very happy. Respectfully,
S. L. PLATT.
A coupling pin, spattered with blood, was
found in the wheat and is almost unques-
tionably the instrument which caused his
death. That blood was found on the roof
of the car in spots makes it certain that a
69ath struggle took place. The car left
Lisbon, Oak, Nov. 26, being four days on
the road. The seal on one side-door was
found broken at Brainerd and was resealed
there. The body was lemoved to the morgue.
where it will remain until the Dakota au-
thorities are communicated with, or some
thing definite is discovered regarding the
identity of the dead man. The case pre-
sents circumstance which will probably go
on record as the first instance Of the kind
ever chronicled-a murder committed and
the body found several hundred miles from
the scene of the deed.

the coinage of silver has supplied the de-
ficiency. This discrepancy in the ratio of
circulation to capital in Minnesota is due of
course to the local financial necessities and
theories of her bankers, but it is also cor
related with the general question of provid-
ing a permanent security for national bank
circulation. 1t is not certain, thinks Mr.
Cannon. that even the approaching con-
gress will enact the proper legislation. So
much legislation is impending, so much
purely political action is likely to absorb
one branch of congress, that many impor-
tant general topics must fail to secure at
tention. The congressional action to be
recommended relative to the public domain
would consume an ordinary session for its
treatment. Il is evident that while vested
rights are to be seduously guarded numer-
Gus recommendations will be made for
amendments that will reorganize and per-
feet the present system.

A good citizen the past week had the pleas
ure of welcoming the arrival fromthe East of
his young wife and eleven children, as he
found. upon enumeration, some Of them
of quite tender years. local paper
says he had not seen his family for six years
As the wife is but 80, the productive value of
such an accession in founding state can
hardly be evereStimated. One of the lead
ing Front street dry goods merchants is conf
dent that only his caution saved him from
being victimized the past week. An old man
who claimed to be very wealthy citizen OF
Bismarck, came In with young and pretty
girl, who said they were to be married, al
though the girl stated that she had known
him only two days, that he was to provide her
splendid wedding outfit and settle upon her
$4,000 as soon as married. She selected
silks and fine goods to the amount OF S40O,
and had them cut and packed. The old man
then wanted to pay for them with bank
check, but the merchant telegraphed to Bis
marck and found that no such name was
known there, and refused to take it. The
man then told him to go over the river to the
Grand Pacific and he would fix the matter up.
He went, and the man insisted that he must
go up stairs with him to his room, but the
merchant feared some hocuspocus and re-
fused. He returned and unpacked the goods
at damage of $25, and the marriage of the
old man and girl is not yet reported.
Gov. Pierce, wife and daughter spent Fri
day in Fargo, receiving friends and making

Exposing a Fraud.

STRAWBERRY POINT, Ia. Nov. 30.-C.
F. Wyman, the spiritualistic medium, has
been holding seances at the residence of W.
B. Field for couple of weeks past, the at
tendance being large each evening, the me-
dunn not forgetting to collect 81 from each
person in attendance. Quite a number Of
citizens have been worked up to high
pitch several being on the verge of insan
ity over the ardent manner in which he
brought up the s0-called spirits of the de-
parted friends. Several skeptical young
men attended the seance Saturday night
with the determination of exposing what
they considered a palpable fraud. Accord
ingly one of them managed to secure seat
near the cabinet from which the spirits ma
terialiZe. The clothing of the medium was
Sewed securely TO the chair in the cabinet,
the circle formed and the lights turned
down. Soon the spirit of the father of one
of the company was materialized and
reached out to shake hands with his son,
when the young man near the
cabinet grappled with the mes
senger from the other world and threw
him to the floor. The believers immedi-
ately hurled themselves upon the daring
young man, upon which the other skeptics
took hand in the affair. and for awhile
pandemonium reigned, with the spirit be-
levers and unbelievers rolling on the floor
of the dimly-lighted room. The lights
were at length turned up when, to the
amaZement of the believing circle the ma
terialized spirit proved to be the medium in
an exceedingly airy attire, while the cloth
ing out of which he had slipped remained
sewed to the chair. The indignation was
great among the spiritualists as well as
others, and tar and feathers were strongly
talked of for a time. but finally cooler judg
ment prevailed and warrant was sworn
out for Wymans arrest for obtaining money
under false pretenses. A hearing was had
before Justice Baird, Wyman pleading
guilty, and in defanlt of bail was remanded
to the county jail to await the action of the
grand jury. Wyman is one of the most
noted mediums in the West, being the chief
medium at the recent Iowa state spiritual
istic camp meeting at Clinton. and coming
to this place from Evanston, where he had
been holding successful seances.

wed him the possession of very pretty and
attractive young lady as his alleged private

the two had very conspicuous illustration.
She was so timid that it was necessary for
him to always occupy apartments that ad-
joined. His former residence was at Cedar

merously sent to Fargo the past week, report
that his wife. who did not come to Fargo,
has Just secured divorce upon the unde-
Tended charge of adultery, in connection

Concerning a Good Mans Credit.

To the Editor of the Globe:
The November term of the district court
for Rice county closed its labors on Wednes-
day, the 25th inst. Several important cases
were disposed of. One OF the most interest
ing and important was that of George II.
Bonte s. Co. Of Cincinnati VS.. s. P. Wall of
this city The plaintiffs in this case shipped
to Mr.. Wall 10000 pounds of binder twine,
which was to be equal and similar to a sam
pie of No twine exhibited at the time of
the contract. Mr.. Wall refused to pay for it
for the reason Of its very poor quality. Bonte
Il Co. brought suit to recover. In addition
to being sued Mr.. Wall was favored with
notice of the fact by the st. Paul agency of
Bradstreet's Commercial Advertiser. This
savored of malice and caused no small an
noyanee, as might be supposed. to one who
enjoys the reputation of being among the
most solvent and careful of our hardware
merchants. Our bank officials speak of him
as prompt and unquestionably sound finan-
claily The case lasted three days. Sew
eral experts from Minneapolis testi-
fed, but the evidence of actual tests
in the field had the most weight,
and the jury, after brief absence, rendered
averdiet for the defendant This is sharp
lesson for those who attempt to practice the

Lauer Held without Bail.

Special to the Globe
OMAHA. Neb.. Nov. 3O.-The examina-
ton of John w. Lauer, who shot and killed
his wife, Mrs. Sarah Lauer, the night of
Nov. 21, came to an end this evening.
Lauer was held to the district court without
bail on the charge of murder. The case
has excited the most intense interest in the
community, as Lauer and his wife were
well known. He claimed to have mistaken
her for a burglar. As it was notorious,
however, that Lauer was almost insanely
jealous and had frequently beaten and
otherwise abused his wife, popular opin-
ion at once inclined to the
belief that the shooting was i'll
territorial. This belief has grown
gradually until it is now firmly and almost
unanimously held. Strong talk has been
made against the man, and it has been sug-
gested that he be hanged without trial.
So general did this become that his house
has been constantly guarded by employees
of the Omaha nail works, of which he was
superintendent. His committal without
bail is mainly for the purpose of preventing
mob violence,

pleasant newmarket party at her home Fri

dam and the railroad and large additions to
the Northern Pacific shops Brainerd ought

gone to Valley City, OAK, to take charge of
the Wells. Fargo & Co. express business at
that point. The Ladies' Aid society of the
First Congregational church will give mu-
sical and literary entertainment on Wednes-

Miss Julia Quincy and Miss Annie Purcell
leave to-day for st. Clara's Academy, Sinsin-

for Austin young ladies, and many of its fair
est and best daughters received their educa-
ton there. There was well-attended meet

house Saturday afternoon. A committee was
appointed to confer with the railroad commits
sioners reg arding the rates between here and
St. Paul, which are two cents bnshel on
grain higher than from Mona, twelve miles
south of here. committee was also ap-
pointed to wait on the merchants and request
them to buy their goods from St. Paul if they
can purchase of St. Paul merchants as
cheapiy as elsewhere. This may serve as a
pointer for the st. Paul merchants, as the
farmers in this locality are very friendly
toward them, and prefer to help build mp a
city of our own state than those Of other
states. "A large amount of building is being
done IN Austin this fall. One of our most
prominent builders said yesterday that he
had enough work contracted now to employ
his full force of men all winter, if the weather
will only permit.
