LAND DECISIONS.

secretary Villas Issues necrees En-
voivtnE the interests Of Minnesota
Railroads and Settlers,
Washington, May 1.-The secretary
Of the interior to-day decided case
involving ninety-eight selections Of land
along the line OF the Hastings end Da-
kota railway in the Benson land district
OF Minnesota. Within the company Is
grant lay tracts which have been sell
eoted by the settlers in lien Of which
thu company nsked indemnity lands and
had gone outside the grant into the
indemnity limits to make its selections,
When these selections were presented to
the register and receiver at Benson they
refused TO ratify them until the COM
pany had filed REIMBURSEMENT of the
claim it had to the tract occupied by the
settlers. The railroad appealed to; the
land commissioner, who approved of the
decision OF the register, and from the
commissioners it appealed to the score
tary. The latter oimply quotes the pro-
vision OF the Law requiring relinquish.
ment before indemnity selections can be
approved, and nffirms the decision Of
the commissioner. There are little
over 900 aDres involved. The case was
argued by the selection egent of the
company, Mr.. Kelly. The secretary
has also affirmed the decision OF the
commissioner of the general land Office
in the case OF the Northern Pacific rail
road against E. Myerstrom, involving
lands in the Fergus Falls district. At
the time of the filing of map of definite
location there was settler upon the
land who afterWard relIuquished his
right, and Myerstrom filed thereon. The
company insists that il has the right to
this land after it's relins suishment by the
previous pre-. emptor. The secretary re.
lects the claim OF the company.
The secretary to-day rendered deci-
sion involving the question OF sufficiency
Of residence upon homestead entries
The case was that OF a. r. Flint of tine
Crookston land district, Mimi, who ap-
pesled from an adverse decision OF the
commissioner, who held his entry for
cancellation on the ground that he had
not complied with ting requirements OF
the homestead law as to five years con.
tlnuous residence. Flint established
his residence on the land on May IL
1879, and resided thereon with his family
until tho following November, when be
was elected attorney for Marshall coun-
ty, and removed TO the county seat. In
February, 1888, he resigned. and return.
ed to his entry, and again resided there
on until the following November, when
he was elected probate Judge OF the
county, whereupon he again removed to
the county seat, where he resided at the
date OF making final proof. His actual
residence upon the land Was about fifteer
months. The decision ia based apoE
former decision of the departmsnt, II
which it was held that public Office
may, during the term OF his office, ac-
tually reside at tho capital or othe,
place required by law for him TO resid,
without losing his legal residence. y

Verdict.
RIDGEFIELD, Aug. 28.-The funerals of
Archibald Y. Paddock and his son Harry
were held this afternoon at the family resi-
dence The son had been killed at the hands
of an insane father and the father himself
had then ended his own life and fallen beside
his beloved child's remains, The father was
buried with Masonic honors, he having been
Royal Arch Mason and an active member
of Jerusalem lodge No. 40, F. and A. N.
The shooting of the son was at first thought
to have been accidental, his father having
shot him as he was coming from behind the
target, and then seeing what he had done.
killed himself, but this theory is exploded by
the story of Mr.. Dauehy and by the number
of wounds in the body of the boy.
William o. Seymour, brother-in-law OF
Mr.. Paddock, however, explains his idea OF
the matter in this way:
The doctor was very much attached to his
son and as it was expressed, ''loved him with
his own life." The boy became acquainted
with parties who were putting in new fur
mace in church in the village, and taking 9
liking to him they had offered him a situa-
ton in their Office in New York This he had
accepted and was making active preparations
| to leave home on Monday morning. The
father, who was man of nervous tempera-
ment, had worried over his sons leaving and
on the impulse of the moment, in fit of in
| sanity caused by brooding over the matter
fred the fatal shot. This is probably as
much as will ever be learned of the crime
The wife and daughter are completely pros
trated.
Acting Coroner Tallmadge of Bridgeport
held an inquest and his decision was that DR.
Paddock killed his son while in temporary
| fit of insanity and that he killed himself IN
der the same circumstances.

w. b. Hill of BranehviIIe Disappears
and There are Suspicious That He
Has Been Murdered-A Brother of
City Engineer Hill.
BRANcHv1LLE, Conn.,, Aug. 28.-The one
question that is now agitating the people of
this vicinity is whether William B Hill of
this place has been murdered. He left his
home last Friday night with large sum of
money on his person. He has not yet re-
turned.
along the Danbury and South Norwalk rail-
road. He is wealthy, and married an heir
ess. He is brother of City Engineer Hill
of New Haven and cousin of Senator Hill
of Norwalk.
He left his home after supper, telling his
wife that he was going down town. He WIS.,
tied several of his friends and then started
for home. This was the last seen of him.
About $50 o'clock his horse was found near
the large wire mills of the Gilbert & Bennett
Manufacturing company wandering aimless-
" along, the lines trailing on the ground.
Several letters, papers and circulars were
scattered along the road, as was also the mail
of several neighbors which Mr.. Hill had in
tended delivering. The horse was taken to
livery stable and search was made for its
missing owner. At about IL o'clock his
family became alarmed at his non arrival
home and started an alarm. The villagers
turned out en- masse and all night long kept
up diligent search.
Mr. Hill was in the habit of carrying
about his person large sums of money, and
on Friday was known to have several thou-
sand dollars in his possession, which he had
intended depositing in Norwalk bank on
the following day. This gives rise to the
theory that he has been murdered, and yes
terday and to-day hundreds of people search
ed the woods and ponds for the body.
That Mr.. Hill was murdered for his money
seems the only correct solution to the
mystery. Detectives from New York will
be put on the case. The family are grief
stricken
