A Half-Naked Crazy Man Creates
Sensation An Iron Land
Squabble.
Special to the Globe.
DULUTH, MIMI, March 16.-Andrew
Anderson, the man who was arrested
yesterday for acting very strangely, was
examined before the judge of probate
to-day and pronounced insane. His
friends obtained permission to put him
in ST. Luke's hospital. This afternoon
when the county physician went into
the room the insane man grew furious,
and jumped through a window which
he opened out upon the porch. The
nurse followed him, but he escaped her
by jumping to the ground over twenty
feet. Then he started down the street
almost naked and shoeleSS. He was
finally captured by two policemen and
taken to the county jail. The affair oc-
caSioned sensation, as it occurred in
one of the finest residence portions.
j. K. Persons, land attorney, set the
iron men to talking to-day by laying
scrip On lands in section IA, town SO,
range II, VIGOROUSLY known as the Jim
Finn claim. The history of this piece
of valuable iron property is probably
one of the most Intricate on the range,
and some very slippery transac-
tionS have been connected with
it. Finn settled on it be-
fore the survey was made. When
it was surveyed, it was returned as
swamp. Then comes Dick Pagan and
contests the states right, at the same
time buying off Finn. Pagan was fin
ally allowed a preference right of en-
try, which he soon relinquished. Upon
the filing of the REIMBURSEMENT, n. B..
Thayer and r. ID. Mailett applied for
the lands. ThayeI won, but in
the meantime he had placed sol
diers's additional scrip on the land,
after filing a REIMBURSEMENT. Mallett
contested the land and so did Huntress
and Brown, the latter through j. S..
johnson, who, latter Fagan's application,
had been refused the right to make ap-
piication by the commissioner and had
Appealed. A few days ago, a second
decision was rendered for Thayer. 1t
seems like the utmost folly to most peO-
pie on the part of persons to offer the
scrip.
Navigation may be said to have COM
menced. The tug Record moved about
the harbor this afternoon. The lake is
open now its whole length.

THIRTEEN MEN DROWNED.
Loss of the Bark Pettingill in
CheSaDeake Bay

NORFOLK, Va, March 16.-The wreck
of the bark Pettingill was found to-day
in Chesapeake bay between the tail of
the Horseshoe and Cape Henry, by the
tug Argus. She lies in five fathoms of
water and is in the track of vessels 60

her miZzen-mast is gone by the deck,
and her fore and main top-gallant mast

WASHINGTON, d. c., March 16.-The
name of Editor Hunt, of the Mankato
Free Press, has been presented for the
sixth authorship of the treasury. The
state delegation is backing him. This
was limited by the GLOBE week ago,
and it is now authoritatively announced
Hon. Joseph A. Leonard, of Rochester,

been presented by the Minnesota dele
CATION for consulates. They are willing
to serve their country anywhere. ID. f.
Morgan is on the list of candidates for
United States district attorney of Min
neSota. Congressman ComStock left
town quietly Thursday night expecting
to spend Sunday in st. Paul. Alex
Hughes, of Bismarck, is at the st. James
to-day, but his wants are not yet fully
developed. 1t is thought he will receive
some judicial appointment, in the new
North state. unless he gets measured
fora senatorship and secures good fit.
Gov. Mellette. Frank Pettigrew and w.
c. Arnold. of Huron, left for home to-
night. The governor will make short
stop in Chicago and reach Watertown

Mitchell land office.is on his way home,
but his competitor, Ralph Wheelock. of
the Mitchell Daily Republican, is still
here. John III. King, of Rapid
City. will reman till the Sioux
reservation committee is appointed.
Congressman DuDnell said tonight he
did not look for any Minnesota appoint
ments to be sent i'll Monday, but that
the more important cases would be first
attended to, and everything would be
reached in good time. Frank Petit
grew, of Sioux Falls, said to-day he
favored Pierre for the capital of South
Dakota because his own town could not
get it if he tried, aud Pierre was far
enough away to leave a sufficient ter
ritory tributary to Sioux Falls to sus-
tain city of 100000 population. If
Sioux Falls stood for herself he thought
it might result in giving the capital to
competing city. He said he would go
home and sell his Pierre real estate for
100000, and then work harder than ever
to send the capital there. Frank All
kens, of Canton, will succeed Judge
John Garland. He is properly Endorsed
by Mellette, Clifford, Mathews, and the
senatOrs-elect of South Dakota.

March 16.-During the past month the
German authorities, both consular and

back to the arrival of the steamer Walnut

existence save the maintenance of a
strong guard at the German consulate.
A guard is still kept at the American
and English cOnSulateS, lin view of the
facts that there has been no official re-
traction of these declarations, and of
numerous prOclamationS with which
the town was flooded, and consequently

'Mr. Mansfield begins the play, as

act presents-frst, Cibber's rendi-
ton of the farewell meeting be-
tween Elizabeth and her children;
next, the browning of Richard as king

the Westminster sanctuary. The fifth
act represents the style of warfare of
the fifteenth century, with arehfeolog

TamaseSe'S force, weakened by deser-
ton, sinks into secondary factor, and,

The Americans and English still ac-
cuse the German officials of
INTERPRETING THEIR MAIL MATTER,
and reading the contents for the in
formation of their government. The
schooner which met the steamship Ala
media at Tutuila, and took on board the
mails for Apia, wasmet by the German
corvette Olga when midway between
Tutuila and Apia, which took
all the official and private
mail matter, and directed the
schooner to return to Tutuila.
All the mail matter taken by the Ala
media for Apia therefore was first taken
on board the German man-of-war before
being turned over to the postoffice in
Apia. As the American mail steamers
do not touch at Apia, American mail
matter must pass through German
hands before reaching the Samoan cap
ital. 1t is thought hereafter an Amer
lean man-of-war will meet the mail
steamer at Tutuila.

but the German government will do its
utmost to prevent friction, at the same
time maintaining Germany's full right

GOVERNOR TooLE's MESSAGE
Sent to the Montana Senate-House Still
Divided.

Sen. to the Montana senate-House Still
Divided.
HELENA, Mont, Dec. 1S.-Governor
Toole sent his message to the senate and
the Democratic house of representatives,
ignoring the the Republican house. The
message was read in the senate, but
pending permanent organization was
laid on the table. In the Democratic
house it was read and referred to spe-
cial committee for rapportiOnment among
the different standing committees. The
message deals exhaustively with matters
of state, urging the passage of needed
laws, and advocating greater economy
in the various offices. The governor, in
the concluding portion, deals with the
political situation. He claims not to be
in the least degree anxious to exceed his
executive functions, although he admits
his proclamation designating the place
for convening the Legislature gives rea-
Sun for some to think so. He says his
action was taken simply to conserve the
interests Of the state.
The Republicans, of course, refuse
to Join the Democratic house, and it is
expected the latter will in day or two
declare vacant the seats of all repub-
licans, and that the goverr''- may be in
duced to call special election to fill the
vacancies so created.

clared to be in session.
A moment later the five prisoners were
ushered in over the iron bridge leading
from the jail. Lawyer John F. Beggs,
with deathly pallor on his face, and
his blue eyes staring as though protrud-
ing from the bleached bones of skele-
ton, headed the line. Behind him came
Dan Coughlin, with half nervous, half
cynical smile upon his face. 1t was ap-
parent to every observer that he had
nerved himself for the ordeal. Next
came O'Sullivan, his jaws compressed,
and the fingers of his right hand tugging
nervously at his moustache. Martin
Burke, close behind him, had his same
look of stolid indifference that he had
worn throughout the trial. Little Kunze,
the last in line was, as usual, the come
dian of the prisoners, and smiled and
waved his hands at the officers
and newspaper men as he entered
the room. AS soon as the defend
ants had taken their seats three dep
uty sheriffs took position behind each
chair. and at the same moment about
fifty officers entered the room by the
main door and formed complete barri-
cade between the prisoners row and all
means of exit for the room. At 2:29 the
iron doors leading to the Jail swung open
and the jury fled into the room. The
men were escorted to their seats and the
roll was called. Breathless silence pre-
vailed. Even the judge, usually calm
