ASHLAND, Wis, Aug. 19.-What ap-
pears to have been tiendish murder
occurred this evening about O'Clock a
few miles outside the city limits on the
line of the Omaha railroad, While the
st. Paul passenger train was running
towards this city Engineer Douty saw a
man lying across the track few rods
ahead of the train. Before the train
could be stopped the unfortunate man
had been run over and cut in two er
three portions. When the train hands
got Off to pick up the remains they saw
another man who was evidently
a companion of the one who
was killed. The engineer approached
him n | he started to run. The train
men called to him to halt, but he con-
tinued on a run and
DISAPPEARED IN THE WOODS.
The whole affair is mystery, but the
theory is that the man who was killed
was intoxicated, and his companion,
seeing the train approaching, laid his
body on the track purposely, that he
might be killed. This theory is strength
ened by the fact that the supposed MUIR
derer escaped to the woods. The body,
which was so horribly mangled that it
had to be placed in barrel, is in charge
of the Ashland county authorities, and
an inquest will be held tomorrow.

that he has at his command large sums
of money. He was taken sick in May
last while he was on duty in North
Carolina. He went to various places,
hoping to regain his health, and while
making his way by gradual stages back
to this city he became worse. When he
reached this city his wife and friends
recognized the fact that he was insane,
but hoping that he would recover, they
did not attempt to confine him in an
asylum. All at once he disappeared.
His wife ascertained that he had taken
passage on the Umbria and then the
dispatch appeared, stating that he was
under arrest in Belfast, charged with
obtaining money under false pretenses.
This is the third attack Of insanity
which Porter has had. When recovered
from the first attack he found to his
surprise that he was a cook on an ocean
steamer. bow he got there he was un-
able to tell. Fhe next time he found
himself on the island of Mauritius.

ALIENS CAN REMAIN.
Serious Defect in the Contract
Labor Law.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 19.-The treasury
department has discovered a serious de-
feet in the law to prevent the importa-
ton of contract labor. It was made
while the case of the twenty-five glass
blowers imported byChambers & Mckee,
of Jeanette, Pa, was under considera-
ton. The original law provided pun
ishment for those who imported labor
ers under contract, but made no dispo-
sition of the laborers. The Fiftieth
congress, in the last days Of the first
session, amended the law by inserting
provision for the return of the laborers
at the expense of the steamship COM
pany which brought them over. How
ever, it Gid not give Jurisdiction
in such cases to any court, and
officials of the treasury department say
that if arrests should be made under it.
a writ of habeas corpus would lie in
each case. This renders that portion of
the law approved Oct. 19, 1888, entirely
imperative, and laborers imported un-
der contract can remain in this country
without let or hindrance. The cases
Immediately affected are those of the
Pennsylvania glass-blowers and the
Texas granite workers, which have
been before the department recently.

CARLSRUHE EN- FETE.
Kaiser William and the Empress

Visit the GranQ DUKE OF BADEN.
BERLIN, Aug. 19.-Emperor William
and Empress Augusta Victoria arrived
at Carlsruhe to-day from Bayreuth.
They were received at the railway sta
ton by the grand duke and grand duch-
ess of Baden and the chief state officials.
Entering carriages, the imperial party
proceeded to the castle. The streets
through which they passed were
thronged with people, and the imperial
visitors received an enthusiastic wei
come. The town was gayly decorated
in honor of the occasion. In the even
ing state banquet was given. The
North German Gazette, commenting on
complaint of the Emin relief commit
tee says the governmentfirst encouraged
and now discourages the committee,
says that greater interests of the
empire may have diverted the
good will of the government,
and that the fact that DR.. Peters,
instead of Capt. Wissmann. is at the
head of the expedition, has also less
ened the governments confidence in
the success of the project. Regarding
the alleged encroachmentsO of the British
the paper says that any grievances of
the German traders in East Africa Will
be duly adjusted, and that there is no
necessity for Indignation meetings,
which, on the contrary, will only do
harm. The extent of German territory
in Africa, it says, is already out of pro-
portion to the forces disposable for its
protection. The experience of the Ger
mans in Zanzibar affords an additional
reason for concentrating within the
present possessions, and the govern
to secure new territory. Queen Victoria
has sent to Prince Bismarck a life-size
portrait of herself as special mark of
esteem. The National Zeitung says
that the czarewltch is coming to witness
the military maneuvers here.

LONDON, Aug. 10. - Ten thousand
striking dock laborers paraded the
streets of London to-day, marching from
their homes, in the East end, under the
leadership of the socialist agitators,
Burns and Champion. They carried no
banners, but the bare poles decorated
with strings of red herrings and crusts
of stale bread were far more eloquent of
the distress and suffering they wished
the well-to-do of London to note. The
demonstration passed off without the
slightest disturbance, although early in
the day rumor that the police wonld
interfere with the precision caused
many angry utterances of defiance and
threats of violence. The police, how
ever, did not interfere, and disclaim any
such intention, and the affair passed off
very quietly, the strikers, at the conclu-
sion of their parade. peacefully dis
banding and going to their homes.

For Eau Claire's big fair, to be held
Sept. "a to 27, everybody in the city is
working hard.
The military companies of this city
have just received their pay for the
summer encampment, and the Griffin
rifles have also just drawn their pay
for the active service at West Superior.
The members of the company have
been highly incensed at the delay of
the state government.
The pugilist Harrington was so badly
punished in his late fight that he has
not been seen on the streets since. The
good citizens of this place are question
ing whether or no Wisconsin is less

The lumber companies here are short
of logs, and two prominent mills have
shut down. 1t will not be accredited as
a good season for Eau Claire.

And Interstate Exposition Prom
ises u Brilliant Success.
Special to the Globe.
WINONA, Aug. 19.-The fair associa-
tion is pushing through with great
energy, and the Winona Fair and Inter
state Exposition promises to be a dandy.
Work has been pushed so rapidly on the
buildings that the main building was
completed to-day. 1t is in the form of a
cross, 10 across and so feet wide, with a
roof % feet high. The central dome is 43
feet and the flagstaff 63 feet tall. The
log palace will stand next the main
building and promises to be the great
attraction of the fair. Work is progress
ing rapidly, and the unique struc-
ture is already beginning to assume
shape. The log palace is built by the
generosity of the lumbermen, and is de-
signed to be fitting representation of
that great industry, just as the Sioux
City corn palace and the st. Paul ice
palace have become unique and SYM
bOlic enterprises.
THE LOG PALACE
is built on an Oblong foundation, 46X54
feet, with corner wings one story high.
The second floor is in the form of a
Greek cross, extending out over the
lower story, with open porches below.
1t is built throughout of products of
our saw mills, the foundation being
logs and the main structure boarded and
ceiled with slabs. The porches and
pillars are logs and the gables pine
bark.
The stalls for the horses and stock are
declared the best in any fair grounds in
the West. The display of poultry will
be unusually fine and large. The light
Brahma class will lead in the Asiatic
division. In the American class there
will be large number of golden, silver
and white Wyandottes, and afew of the
rarer black Wyandottes. The fair has
been extensively advertised, and appli-
cations for space are pouring in so rap
idly that the association had to move
into a large. new Office on Center street,
with three large rooms, and engage
second assistant secretary. Old Set
tiers day Will be great feature, when
all the early residents who are
left will enjoy an Old-fashioned
grubstake in the log palace. Gov. Mer-

WILL RIGHT THE WRONG.
Chief Inspector Clausen Will
Give Duluth Grain Men a
Chanoo


Special to the Globe.
DULUTH, Aug. ia. G. Clausen,
chief state grain inspector, was i'll town
to-day on business relative to the rein
spection of wheat into different grade
that had passed a thorough cleaning
and blowing in Duluth elevators. In
spector Clausen visited the board of
trade. and for an hour was the center of
a fuSilade OF questions. For a long
time past the chief deputy inspector at
Duluth has not allowed reinspection, or
higher grade for reinspected wheat, act
ing under orders of the commissioners,
although the grain had gone through
thorough cleansing process, and was
clearly entitled to a higher grade. This
fact had been repeatedly called to
the attention of the commissioners,
notably by George Spencer & Co.,
who have had several hearings in st.
Paul on the subject, but with no result.
While this rule has been rigidly inforced
at Duluth, where all warehouses are
public, at the Twin Cities the opposite
is known to have been the case. In re-
SpOnSe to inquiries as to why Duluth
was not given the benefit accorded to
private houses, Inspector Clausen this
Sdlu IL was bllC 1Ooulb pIy VI
a misunderstanding of the laws. He
said that wheat that was receipted as
No. northern, when cleaned to No.
hard grade. was clearly entitled to a
No. hard receipt, provided it under
went a reinSpectiOn after cleaning.
There was nothing in the law to prevent
just regarding after reinspectiOn. The
inspector promised to have the wrong
righted Immediately.
Yesterday afternoon a Swedish
woman, picking berries near Herman
town road. gave birth to a male child

After the child was born the mother

to Pull Hair.


OLYMPIA, W. T., Aug. 19.-The con-
vention to-day, by vote of 35 ayes and
"a noes. defeated the article on state
school and granted lands. Several efforts
were then made to introduce a substi-
tute fer the defeated article, but were
all voted down, and the committee on
land was ordered tOrepOrt a new article.
This will delay the adjournment several
days, if not longer. The convention
adopted seal. a vignette of Washing
ton, with the words Seal of Washing
ton, 1889" The article defining state
boundaries was also adopted, after
some discussion over the boundary
along the Columbia river. The
northern boundary of Oregon is de-
scribed IN an enabling act of that state,
as running to north ship canal of the
Columbia river. There is said to be no
north channel now, SO the words were
changed to "Main channel" About
noon papers from Seattle arrived with
news that the Haynes and Squire fac
tions tor the United States senate had
broken out in bitter fight, and presi-
dent HOyt, of the convention, was
spoken of as a candidate for United
States senator. He left at once for Sc
attic, and great CONSERVATION was
created among the Republicans, who
fear that these factional fights are en-
dangering their SUPREMACY in the state.

MUST BE A JOKE.
the Cooperation of England in
ANYTHING.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 19.-Acting Sec
retary Wharton expressed surprise
when shown the London dispatch stat
ing that the English government had
received q communication from the
state department asking England to CO.
operate in devising means to prevent
the spread of contagious and infectious
diseases from well-known plague CEN
tiers in Europe and the East. To his
knowledge there had been no communi-
cation of this character sent abroad,
and it is the opinion at the state depart
ment that the English government must
have received it through some other
source. Surgeon General Hamilton, of
the marine hospital service. was also
seen. He stated that resolution was
adopted by the quarantine convention
held in Montgomery. Ala, last March,
requesting the state department to take
steps in this direction through its diplo-
matte channels. A similar resolution
was adopted by the American Medical
association on June 25 last, but no action
on the subject has been taken by the
state department to his knowledge.
