NOTWITHSTANDING TIE restrictions upon
trade between the United States aud Cana
da, the Canadians last year imported sixty
one million dollars worth OF the products OF
this country. The value Of the exports from
the United States to Cuba, Mexico, aud all
the Central and South American countries
cambined, did not amount to that mucf.
Bot vet the Harrison administration will
not hear of reciprocity with Canada, whose
neople want it, and which would treble the
exports to that country, while it has gone wild
over reciprocity with the other countries
referred to, the people of which do not want
+, and who, by the Mckinley bill, send their
products to t2is country free of duty.

VILLAINY TawARTED,
And a Young Man From ST. Paul
Narrowly Escapes Arrest.

NdfIOWtJ LSCdDCS hEECSt.
A dashing but misguided st. Paul
youth, who gave the fictictious name of
Henry Jackson, was arrested by Ser
geant kirkham yesterday afternoon in
company with fifteen-year-old girl
whom il was believed he was trying to
entice away for. immoral purposes. The
girl in the case is Ida Pray, very pre-
possessing black-eyed miss, whose home
is at Litchtield, but who also has rela
tiveS in st. Paul. She first met jackson
on one of the short line trains while
coming to Minneapolis yesterday morn
ing. de is g0od-looking, Well-dreSSed
fellow, and she innOcently accepted an
invitation to dine with him at Tyrell's
restaurant. The restaurant keeper SuS-
pected from JacksOn'S actions during
the meal that there was something
wrong, and notified the officer on the
lower Washington avenue beat, who in
turn reported to Sergeant Kilkham.
The sergeant watched the two until
they got into hack and then followed
in another vehicle. He found that his
suspicious were well founded, for they
drove directly to house on Fifth street
northeast, bept by one Nick Hennessy,
who has for some time been looked
upon by the police with suspicion. AT
the house the pair were taken in charge
by the officer, who returned with them
to them lookup. Under the rigid cross
questioning of Capt. Day and Assistant
County Attorney Dunn, jackson adj
mitted that his intentions toward the
girl were not honorable, but stated that
her actions were such as to lead him to
believe that she was not absolutely in
nocent and was willing to concur in
his plans. After both parties had been
carefully questioned it was decided to
release the young man with a severe
reprimand. The girl was taken to st.
Paul by her uncle, who was also present
during the investigation of the case.
The young mans right name could
OF be learned. but it is known that he
is prominent real estate dealer of st.
Paul, and that he has moved in good
society in that city.

well.
"What is your full name?" asked
Capt. Hart.
"Ludwick Niemojowski."
"Wny did you change it?"
II didn't. just dropped the last two
syllables, that's all"
What was that for?''
ITO save the Americans Jaws"
"Oh! I'm dead" and Capt Hart
Joined heartily in the laugh that fol-
lowed.
The witness also stated that he
thought it was about 70 that Heilpern
was guilty of forgery in Warsaw All
the papers at the time devoted consid-
cradle space to the event. He pur-
chased watch from Heilpern while
they were working together in the
Omaha office in st. Paul. He did not
pay for 1t, as 1t was not gold watch,
as Leo claimed at the time of the sale.
Considerable amusement was got out of
the witness by his statement that he
expected to get his fees for appearing
as witness. Memo said he heard of
the case, and went to the county at
torney and volunteered to appear as a
witness if required. A motion of Capt.
Hart to strike out the evidence of this
witness was denied by the court.
Ernest Zeidler was again put on the
stand. and closely questioned by the de-
Tense as to the manner of keeping the
books, but nothing new was brought out.
j. B. Bassett, president of the Colum-
Dla Mill company, gave his version of
the star chamber session which was
held in Chief Henderson's office after
Leo was brought back. HIS evidence
corrOborated that of Mr.. Zeidler.
AT this point the court said: Zone of
the children of Mr.. Casey, one of the
Jurors, is lying at the point of death,
and may not recover. Should the child
die. of course the juror would have to
be parted from the jury, SO / dismiss
this case until tomorrow afternoon at
2 O'clock"
Capt. Hart protested loudly and
vainly, and took an exception, but the
case was dismissed. A large number
of lawyers and spectators were present
to hear the closing arguments IN the
now celebrated case, but were disap-
pointed.

THE WILL FOUND.
A Document Drawn by G. Il. Coffin
Presented for Probate.

Presented for Probate.
The will of Galen B. Coffin has been
filed for probate. 1t will be remem-
bered that Mr.. Coffin committed suicide
in an hotel in st. Paul about two weeks
ago. After his death no will could be
found, so his brother applied for letters
of administration some ten days ago in
order that the estate might be settled as
soon as possible. The will was present
ed by Eben Kneeland, to whom the doc
nment was addressed in a sealed en-
velope. 1t was found among the papers
of the deceased.
The will is somewhat of a peculiar
one. 1t is written on one of Mr.. Coffin's
letter heads, and drawn without regard
to the established form. Gus Briggs
and Charles q. Orr are witnesses, and
Mr.. Kneeland is named as administra-
tor, All of his property. real and per-
sonal, is left to his wife with the excep-
ton of $500 cash TO his mother, and his
fur overcoat which goes to his father,
Mr.. Kneeland informed Judge Cor
rigan that he did not care to accept the
misunderstanding, and that he had seen
Mr.. Briggs and Mr.. Orr, but both had
stated that they did not remember sigh
ing the will, which is sworn to before
Mr.. Orr as notary public. The docu-
ment is dated May "a. 1883.
