THE PERRIN TRIAL.

Defendant.

Completion Of the Testimony Of the
Defendant.
ASHLAND, Wis, Special Telegram,
The Perrin trial was resumed to-day
with Perrin still on the stand. A good bit
of testimony was given that is familiar to
the public. The first thing that is of inn
portance was when Perrin testified that
since July, 1887, the statements to the state
treasurer and to the public had been raised
by $4,000 by Reynolds to increase the
volume Of business both ways. The
defense then attempted to show up
the character of Reynolds; that he was in
the habit of letting lewd women in the
bank after hours and keeping them there
over night, but the judge decided the evil
dence was immaterial. Perrin stated on
cross examination that he had met Good
land at Eagle river or Watersmeet as Good
land claimed he had. Perrin showed how
bank. The prize fig Int deal was brought up,
it. He testified concerning his
whereabouts on the night OF
Sept. 20 and gave the names of several par
ties who were accustomed to accompany
him there. Said he had box at the Alca-
Ear and was there when Reynolds came in
and told him the bank had been robbed.
Miss Jennie Campbell next gave her testl-
mony concerning the whereabouts of Mr..
Bennett on the night of the robbery. She
said she saw him about 10 o'clock at the en-
trance to the gambling room of the theater
After this NO more important testimony
was given.

SETTLERS MOTTO SUFFER,
Pre-Emptors Will Not Lose Their
Land Because of Defaulting Re-
CaiNnr


WASHINGTON. Special Telegram,
Representative Wilson to-day received a
letter from Assistant Commissioner Stone.
of the general land Office, in relation to the
final proof of John T. Naff for land in the
Spokane Falls, WASH, district Naff made
proof two years ago before clerk of court
and transmitted his papers and $500 for
payment of the land to NJ. G. Barney, then
receiver. The money was never turned over
to the government, and Naff never got his
receipt Barney became defaulter and
was removed. Naff's papers remained in
the Spokane Falls land office. The assistant
commissioner says he will have an examina-
ton made of Naff's case, and if his proof
is sufficient direct patent to issue. He
holds that although the government has not
received the money for the land, Barney
was duly authorized agent of the govern
ment and the settler must not suffer by fanlt
Of the governments agent The govern
ment must proceed against Barney's bonds
men to recover. 1t will be the first case on
record where patent will issue before the
money is turned over to the government.
Philones McDougall's claim is in the same
condition as Naff's and will receive the same
action. Paul D. Henry of Seattle, Wash,
is in Washington on business before the
land office. He represents parties who have
offered filings on certain lands in Washing
ton which have been denied by the general
land office and the case is now before the
secretary of the interior.

WHEAT AND CORN.
The Amount Of These Cereals Still
In the Hands of Farmers.

The Amount Of These Cereals Still
IN the Hands of Farmers.
WASHINGTON, SpeciaL-The statistical
report of the department of agriculture for
March relates to the distribution and con-
sumption of corn and wheat. 1t makes the
proportion of the corn crop in the hands of
growers 45.9 per cent, or $40, 600, 600 bushels
and ofthe wheat crop 31.9 per cent, or 156, =
600, 600 bushels. The stock of corn or hand
is the largest ever reported in March of the
largest crop after the mildest winter. The
average Of eight annual returns is 81, 600, 600
bushels; that OF last year 1871, 100000. The
estimate consumption to March is 1, 49,
O00, 600 bushels, figure exceeded only last
year and in 1886. The proportion of mer-
charitable corn of the crop of 1889 is
85-7 per cent, exceeded in recent years
only by those of 1884 and 1886. The average
value of corn on the LIST of December was
LIST of March was 27.9 cents for merchanta-
bic and 1872 cents for understandable,
making an aggregate of value $35, OOO 600
less than the December estimate. The
wheat crop Of 1889 was exceeded by the
crops of 1880, 1882 and 1884. The average
remainder in the hands Of growers March 1
for ten years past has been 100, OOO. 900 BUSH
els. Inc average crop curing tnlS pellou
was $50, OO0. 900 bushels. Most Of the wheat
in farmers hands is in states which have no
surplus over consumption, or in those in
which much the larger portion is consumed
at home. 1t is seen, therefore, that the
available supply for expectation and for
home distribution to July is small. The
depleted farm reserves have been measure
bly, filled, except in few states, but it will
require the pressure of high prices to
squeeze any considerable proportion of
them into commercial distribution.

sixty miles north of there. The only means
ofidentification was letter from the young
mans mother, written some two months
before his death. The brother took the
first train. and on getting up in Northern
Michigan found that the only way to reach
the numbering camp was by walking sixty
miles through the timber. There was two
feet of snow on the ground, the way prac-
tically painless. and most of the time
fierce storm was in progress. At the end of
the third day he reached the lumber camp
and found that his brothers remains had
been frozen and were to be planted" in the
snow the next day. owe thought we could
hang to the body week or two, hoping
some of his folks would come" explained
one of the men. "We ant certain, but we
have our suspicious as to who did the

More than that the brother could not learn.
He secured an OK team and got the body to
a railway station, and is taking it home to
be buried beside his father.

When q Woman Mails a Letter.

Femininity in the postoffice is an
amusing study. In the matter of drop
ping simple. ordinary, white, every
day letter, for instance, she affords an in
sight into the character of the average
woman. The looker-on had nothing
else to do the other day than to watch
this operation for five minutes. Out of
thirty young women who went to cast
their epistles in the slot twenty-five, by
exact calculation, withdrew the letter
before quite letting go of it to scan
both sides of the note to be "very'' sure
the letter was securely sealed, properly
addressed, stamped, and to be certain
no one could look through the envelope
to read the contents. Out of these
twenty-five ladies three had forgotten
to put a stamp on their letters. and
two had to add something to the ad-
dress on the envelope. while another
carried off with her the letter she had
intended to mail. Boston Record.

Gfadstone's Motion in Regard to the
Parnell Report Defeated.
LONDON, Special.-In the honse of COM
mons to-day Mr.. Sexton resuming the de
bate on the commissions report. protested
against the placing on the records OF the
house the judges distorted and perverted
views of the evidence submitted to them.
The Conservatives, he said, were bound to
accept Mr.. Gladstone's amendment as
an act of moral restitution. Mr..
Sexton said he had letter marked "pri-
vate" from Lord Salisbury to Pigott. Mr..
never uttered than the insin uation that
Lord Salisbury was connected with the
forgeries. He had the prime minister s
authority to challenge Mr.. Sexton to
publish the letter referred to,
and he dared him to read it.
Mr.. Sexton reported that he was ready to
committee of inquiry. Mr.. Balfoureenied
that the government assisted the Times to
procure evidence in America. He &C
cused the Parnellites OF withholding
from the commission every source
of authentic evidence. The government
made no charges against the Parnellites,
and he failed TO see why the government
adequately denounced the Phoenix Park
murders nobody would have discredited
the leaders. After further discussion Mr..
,Gladstones amendment was rejected by a
vote of 349 to 268. The amendment offered
by Mr.. Jennings will be taken UP to-mor-
row.
Detective Moser, who was employed by
tbs Times, has written letter in which he
denies that he was in America at the time
when Mr.. Harrington, in the debate in the

ATTEMPTED SUICIDE
Representative Hess of South
Dakota Becomes infatuated
With a LeWd Woman.
On Her Refusal to 60 With
Him He Takes A Big Dose
of Strychnine.

PIERRE, S. D., Special Telegram,
There is considerable excitement here
to-day among politicians and members of
the legislature who have remained in the
city over the startling news that Represent
alive Samuel L. Hess, of Flandrau, had
attempted suicide by taking strychnine.
During the early days of the session of the
legislature Hess became frequenter of one
of the houses of ill-fame on Missouri ave-
nue., and became enamored of one of the
inmates. Hess went to the place night
after night and even in the afternoon,
sometimes, when the roll was called, Hess
would be away in the company of the
damsel of easy virtue. The girl is known
as frankie, and described as being any
thing but q beauty, being cross-eyed
and of squatty figure, but is a belle among
her kind on account of her intelligence and
agreeable disposition and vivacious nature.
Hess is married man and has a lovely
wife and three children. Their home is at
Flandrau, Moody county. 1t is said that
their residence is a handsome and comfort
able one Saturday night after the legis-
lature adjourned Hess went to the den of
iniquity and told the girl that he was going
This she refused to do and Hess became
wild and in drunken frenzy took poison.
He was in a room at the Locke hotel, where
an intimate friend discovered his condition.
Physicians were summoned and they
worked all night over the sick man, and
for a long while he fingered between life
and death, but was finally revived and is
now on the road to recovery. He was seen
this afternoon by a reporter, and was asked
to say something in defense of his action.
He said: Il can say nothing. I realize
that am in deep disgrace with my con-
stituents, my family and my friends. / can
only say that I've made fool of myself
while under the influence of drink. That
is ALL" Hess is a short, redfaced man. and
has proved good speaker and debater, and
was one of the few who fought prohibition
during the late session. He leaves for home
in the morning.

ASHLAND. Wis, Special.-A tall old
man passed through here with the body Of
his younger brother, who had been brutality
and mysteriously murdered in Northern

dead man was but twenty years old.
Contrary to his mothers wishes he had
wandered of, and the first word received
from him was sent by the postmaster at Bay
City, Mich, who wrote that young man
had been shot down from behind one night
