HElRESS 10 A FORTUNE,

LAPoRTE, Ind, May 30.-Mrs Joseph
Brand of kingsbury, this county, is about
to become the possessor of fortune of
100000 through the recent death of her
father, whom sue had long since believed
to be dead. The story is an interesting
and dates back to the year 1919. when AL
len Hawks left his wife and five children
in Cherry Creek, n. Y, to join the gold
explorers in California. Seven long years
hs stayed, only occasionally writing and
RENTING small sums of money. At the end
df that aime he came home poor and re-
manned four years.
Not being satisfied with his ex-
plorations, he again left his fsm-
lily, and as years passed. the chill
dren marrying and the mother dying,
he lost ali trace of his family, and his chill
dren supposed him. Several weeks ago
the postmaster at Cherry Creek received a
letter from Mr.. Hawks. which inquired af-
ter his family. stated he was about to die
and wanted to find an heir for his fortune
of 800, 900. The postmaster happened to
know of Hawks nephew, and the latter
gave him the address of his cousin, Mrs
Joseph Brand, of kingsbury, as the only
surviving child.
A letter was received by the latter today
from the postmaster stating that Mr.
Hawks had subsequently died and that
she was the only heir to his fortune.

NO FEARS OF TROUBLE.
The Behring Sea Controversy Nothing
but Talk.

WASHINGTON, May 30.-The warlike dis
patches from British Columbia with re-
gard to the expected trouble between the
United States and Great Britain over the
Behring sea fisheries are generally denied
by officers Of the navy department. 1t is
pointed out that no officer of rank suffi-
GENTLY high to make him acquainted with
the English governments purposes would
under any circumstances be so foolish as
to talk in the manner stated in the dis
patches from Victoria, 3. G. A promi-
nent naval officer, in speaking of the sub
ject, said that if such a talk did occur
the speaker was some subaltern
who had drank too much beer
and had lost his head and had
by hight talk given the auditor to believe
something startling was going to- take
place and that he knew all about it. The
United States bad no reason to appre-
assurredly would not commit any overt
act of violence in case her sealers were ar
rested without warning this government
OF her intentiOnS-a warning that Great
Britain would by force dispute the sover-
eighty of Behring Sea. This alone showed
the improbability OF the story.
1t might be \that the YES
SGI5 udlIleu were going 10 bcHTIIS
sea, though that was by no means certain.
Their duties there, however, would proba-
bly, consist in nothing more than keeping
watch on the situation TO present their
citizens from being wantonly ill-used and
giving the sealerS good advice. If our
vessles attempted anything that was I'M
warranted it might be that the British of
ficers would feel called upon to interfere.
The United States sent vessels to the New
foundland fishery each year to look after
American interest and the British vessels
probably had similar mission in Alaska
waters, presumlng that they would go
there.
The United States naval force at present
available in Behring sea consists of the
Bear the Thetis, and revenue cutter.
These vessels are of no use for actual war
fare, and are simply policemen OF the sea-
The Adams and the Cirqueres are at Mare
Island and could be sent to sea on short
notice if circumstances demanded it. The
Charleston is also at San Francisco, but it
will be some time before she will be ready
to go into commission. She had demon
strated, it is said, that she is an excellent
boat, but has not yet fulfilled the
contract requirements and some
changes are necessary in her
machinery before she can come up to the
conditions of the contract. Even these
were waived, under stress of
an emergency it would take some time TO
fit the Charleston out for service.
AS has been already stated, however,
naval officers do not think the situation at
all alarming or even threatening. The
Behring sen fisheries they are confident,
will not preciptate a conflict between the
United States and Great Britain.

A NOTED CRIMINAL

LA PORTE, Ind, May 30-One of the
most noted and desperate criminals in In
diana was released this morning from the
Michigan City penitentiary, after serving
a term of nine years, for horse stealing.
His name is Ed Fahnestock, and horse
stealing was not his only crime.
Fahnestock's father was quite wealthy,
and he was brought to the verge of ruin
attempting to get his boy out of trouble
The father was successful in getting young
Fahnestock acquitted of murder in one
case, but the boy was sentenced to be
hanged in a subsequent trial for another
murder. Fahnestock secured a new trial
and was acquitted.
The crime of horse stealing, however,
proved too much for a jury, and the des-
perado was sent NY to serve nine years. 1t
is aid that when he walked the streets of
Lafayette everyone gave him a wide berth
He would strike men and knock them
down, but his victims would not retaliate
from the fact that they feared death at his
hands. Officers seemed to keep clear of
him.
Fahnestock is a man of mental ability.
His relatives are highly respected The
prisoner seemed to have been the black
sheep among all his relatives He is now
45 years old and has just received back
pension Of $1,000, having served in the late
war.

CHICAGO, May SGT is rumored that

dered found d pick and other ice tools,
presumed to have been the property Of L.

ties are reticant as to the result of today S

is advanced that it was with blows
from these instruments that DR.. Cronin
was so foully murdered, but when it is re-
membered that the notable discovery of

skull was in no place fractured, the con-
lecture does not appear reasonable. The

NORTHWEST FLOUR OUTPUT.

| MINNEAPoLIs, Mimi, May 30.-The
Northwestern Miller to-day says: the
flour output was pared down somewhat
last week. but still exceeded 100, 900 barrels.
The fourteen mills in operation to varying
degrees produced an aggregate of 105. 900
barrels, averaging 1850 barrels daily,
against 113, 700 the week before, and 162. 600
barrels for the corresponding time in 1888.
Another falling off will probably occur in
the output of the current week There
were thirteen mills grinding to-day,
but two of the number are to stop
tonight, thereby taking off 200
barrels per twenty-four hours, while sew
eral more will observe decoration day.
Those running today were producing at
the rate of about Is, 500 barrels daily. The
flour trade continues very dull, the de-
mand being rather more restricted, with
prices about 10c lower. About everybody
is getting some orders, but they are usual
ly small in size and come from a wide
range of territory. Most of the mills will
run until they get out of orders. then shut
down for few days to accumulate enough
for short run and again start up, thus
being almost constantly up and down In
their operations. ISeveral firms which
have had moderate quantities Of flour
stored here have been shipping more
.
about SO, 600 barrels, almost all of which is
patent. The direct exports of the week
were SO, $50 barrels against 35,1 10 for the
preceding week.
Quotations, London, c. l. f., $50 pounds,
are: Patent, 33@34s; bakers, 23@24s; low
grades, 12@l5s
There were 563, sos bushels of wheat re-
ceived in Minneapolis for the week ending
May IS. The shipments were: Wheat,
204, 025 bushels; -four. 110,603 barrels; mill
stuff, 2679 tons. Ninety-seyen mills To-
Gated in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Dakota
and New York have made reports To the
Miller of their output and exports for
April, and the same lightness of volume is
shown as in preceding months. These
mills sground 49, barrels less flour
during the month than in 1883,
but the exports were 45 per cent of the
production, as compared with 80 per cent
a year ago. The Minneapolis output was
267, $40 barrels lighter than for April, 1888,
and 5000 barrels greater than for May
last. Minneapolis exported 81 per cent of
its production, against 41.6 per cent in
1888. This abnormal showing was caused
by large shipments on consignments. The
output of the sixty Minnesota
mills was 551, 40 barrels, against 91S,5 sos
for April. 1888. New York again comes to
the front with production in excess of
year ago. Wisconsin ground $1,000 bar
rels less, and its exports were very much
lighter Dakota dropped off not far from
one-half in both output and exports.
