Special to the Globe.
FARGO, OAK, Jan. 2.-Gen. Tyner is
in print again, but this time without his
signature. The Republicans this even
ing announces by the unquestioned au
thOrity of Gen. Tyner that Pierce has
left the Dakota supplement field
to engage in banking at Bismarck
and Tyner succeeds him as supplement
man, with headquarters at Fargo, and
will devote his entire energies to the
work. In response to an inquiry Pierce
tonight telegraphS the Argus from Bis
marck that Tyner's story is too previous;
that he is not going into banking at the
capital and is not off the supplement-.
His continuance depends upon negotia-
tiOns in progress for new contract.
Looks like unpleasantnesS.
MIR. WHEELOCK Is NON-CoAIMITTAL.
A ring at the doOrbell was answered
by the editor, j. A. WheelOck, at 10
o'clock this morning, when the follow
ing conversation took place:
"Mr. WheelOck," said the reporter,
1.-THE GLOBE would like to know what
truth there is in the report that Gov.
Pierce has resigned his position on the
staff of the Pioneer Press and that Gen.
Tyner has been appointed to fill the
vacancy?"
''Thls is a fine evening"" said Mr.
Wheelock, looking up at the starry
heavens with dreamy, far-away eX-
preston in his countenance. '"This is a
fine evening for walking" he cOntin-
ued. "Let me see, it must be at least
two miles to the GLOBE building from
here. How one can enjoy walking an
evening like this! Do you enjoy walk
ing?"
Here the reporter confessed that he
was not particularly stuck on it, but
like many other things, it was some
times necessary.
"Well, we'll, what an evening this
is!"-Here the reporter felt sharp
twinge in one of his ears and clapped
his hand on it-"But won't you come
in?" continued Mr.. Wheelock.
''Then Gov. Pierce-?" said the re-
porter.
TOO bad that it is so far down town" ="
murmured Mr.. Wheelock, with his
sweetest smile. Convey my regards to
the GLOBE and say that wish it a
happy New Year, and also say that the
private business concerns of the Pioneer
Press are, in my opinion, of no public
| INTEREST,"

RUSH CITY, Mimi, Jan. 2.-The cor
Oner's jury in the Erickson case finished
their duties to-day. After vain effort
on Saturday and Sunday to visit the
tragedy, eight miles in the country, it
was abandoned on account of the snow,
and the body of the murdered woman
was brought into town by order of the
coroner to-day, There were several
witnesses sworn who were present just
before and Immediately after the trag-
edy, and the fifteen-year-Old son of the
prisoner testified he saw his father
twist scarf about his mothers neck and
drag her from the room and throw her
into the sheds when he ran for help.
The first man who arrived saw Erickson
unite and take the scarf from the neck
of the dead body. The corOner'S jury
returned a verdict in accordance with
the above facts. The coroner issued his
warrant and Deputy Sheriff Squires
proceeded to serve it upon the prisoner,
who was already in the village lookup
and under a strong guard, and he was
arraigned before Justice Clark, Lawyer
Dent appearing for him. The prisoner,
upon being asked to plead, admitted his
crime and said that all he wanted was
his life spared. The justice committed
him to the Washington county
jail to await the action of the
grand jury. The general feeling
of the people at first was that the
man might have committed the act
while in fit of temporary insanity, bat
that idea rapidly wore off as the pris-
Oner willingly explained how he com.
mitted the act, even to the smallest de.
tails, and seemed to be afraid only that
he would hang for it. Later there has
been considerable talk and mutterings
in the direction of a lynching, which
probably the firm stand taken by the
deputy sheriff only prevented. The
family of small children staid alone il
the house, with their dead mother. il
the back shed, two days and nights, ant
with nothing to eat in the house but po
tatoes. The county will take charge o.
them now. Fhe deceased was about tt
become the mother of another child
which adds only to the Nervousness q
the crime -.

Anthony Tally, of the Miners and Lat
borers' Amalgamated association, WAS
interviewed at his home at Ashland re-
specting the miners strike. He eX-
pressed himself as being heartily OPP

miners or the companies could afford it.
He desired the parties to come together
and settle their differences by arbitra-

is to be believed President Talley's ideas
are not to be followed out by the miners.

says that they are bent on striking and
that nothing can prevent over $1,000
men from going out tomorrow. The
Amalgamated association has issued no
