A visit among the business firms at Bis

improvement in all branches of trade and
more cheerful, hopeful spirit displayed

Der Company, of which Mr.. Isaac Hooper,
ESQ.,, is agent. This firm has always main
tained steadfast confidence in the supe-
riority and ultimate success of the Mis-
souri, Slope both as an agricultural and
stock raising country, and as an evidence
of their faith in the region surrounding
them, they have recently stocked up their
yards in Bismarck with immense quanti-

they are selling to farmers at greatly re-

give them prices that will defy competition.

Francisco Lombardo Found Dead in the Street
Mrs. Seryi Said She Would Drink His Blood

ELIZABETH, n. j., Nov. 1.-About day
break this morning John Welsh. a milk
man, discovered the body of q iusn lying on
the sidewalk in High street. from q trail of
blood extending in the street for half a
block. Welsh notified the police. and the
dead man was identified as Francisco Lom-
bardo. an Italian. about thirty years of age.
He had died from q stiletto wound in the
left breast. Lombardo was unmarried,
and had q room in O honse in Fourth
avenue, half block from the scene of the
murder. Suspicion at once pointed to
Michael Servi aud his wife, who have
apartments in the same house. and they
were Immediately arrested. There has
been bad blood between Lombardo and
Servi for some time. Servi chased LOm-
bardO with a revolver some nights ago, and
on Tuesday last both Servi and his wife
attacked him in the yard, and Servis wife
made a threat that she wouid drink LOm-
bardO's blood. 1t is believed that he WAS
killed in the yard and has body carried to
the place where it was found. On Servi's
trousers and belt he wore blood spots
were fouDd. Search for the weapon has
been fruitless. Servi has o bad character
Five years ago he was suspected of the
murder OF Joseph FemminelIi, whose body
was fonnd in the canal at Newark. Serv;
was arrested. but escaped and went to
Italy. The charge was not further investi-
gated on his return. He was once charged
with shooting at his brother-in-law, Fran

BROTHER AND SISTER MARRIED.
Shocking Denouement of Barge Office In
cident-A Girls Singular Story.

New YORK. Nov. 1.-Among the immi-
grants landed at the barge office to-day
from the Hamburg-American steamer
Fuerst Bismarck, which reached this port
yesterday. was q German family named
Mueller. There was the mother. her son
John. twenty six years, aud daughter Mar
guerite, aged twenty-five. besides a son-in-
law and his two children. The daughter
was seen to be In an interesting condition,
and evidently quite near to the culmina-
tion of her trouble. When questioned by
the burcau officials, she indicated that her
brother John was the responsible person.
At this time the attaches of the barge Of
fee had no knowledge of the relationship
existing between the pair, and they were
teld. the remainder of the family being
permitted to 60 ashore. Marguerite was
told that unless she and her betrayer were
married. they would both be sent back to
their German home. She responded at
once that she was quite willing to take
him for husband and he in turn, ex-
pressed equal Willingness TO make Mar
guerite his wife. So an official escorted
them to Pastor Kyles residence and they
were made husband and wife.
Alter the ceremony, 1t was found that
the mother had their railroad ticket for
Elgin. Ill, and search was made for her.
She was found at the emigrant mission
house. and was told that her daughter was
married, and at liberty to accompany her
on her journey. The mother expressed
much astonlshment. and demanded to
know whom her daughter had married. On
being told. she threw up her hands, and
shrieked in horror. why. that is my son;
they are brother and sister"
The scene that followed beggars descrip-
tion. Upbraidings and recriminations by
mother and daughter followed while the
son, brother and husband. John. who had
entered the room, looked on in stolid in
difference. The girl persisted in the state
ment that John was the father of her un-
born child, while the mother persisted that
q soldier stationed at Mecklenburg, Ger
many. was the anthor of the trouble. The
brother would make no statement, neither
admitting nor denying the charge. The
mother succeeded in exciting belief in her
story of the German soldier, and the con-
clusion was reached that the girl had I'M
plicated her brother in order to secure their
release from the barge office. Brother and
sister were remanded to the edetention-room,
pending further investigation. The mar
riaRe. of course. is void, both legally and
morally.

GRAND RAPIDS. Mich. Nov. 1.-The Su-

Railroad decided o point of greatsinterest

the supreme Cour: affirmed. In its drcs-
