Electricity tc Run Mills.

ST. PAUL, Jan. at is announced
today thata revolution in fourmaking
as great as the introduction of the roller
process some years ago, is to occur here
in the next two months. It is no less
than the substitution of electricity for
water or steam for the running of an inn
mense mill to be erected on West Third
street, on the site of the St. Paul roller
mill, burned two years ago. The plan
is that of Kingsland Smith, who intro
duced the roller process of wheat crush
ing twelve years ago, and who is a prac-
tical miller of many years experience.
Mr.. Smith has been experimenting for
the past thirteen months with electric
ity for moving mill machinery, and said
tonight:
+ / have become thoroughly convinced
of its cheapness and its entire practica-
bility, shall introduce it in the big
St. Paul mill with entire confidente that
it will settle the question of cheap
power

A Passenger Train Derai1ed.

GARFIELD, Wash, Jan. Sunday
morning as passenger train No. 5, of the
Union Pacific, was about midway be-
tween Latah and Tekoa, the rails spread,
derailing the entire train from the ten
der to the Pullman and tearing up $50
yards of track. The engine and tender
passed in safety, but the mail car, ex-
press car, smoker and chair car were all
wrecked. The latter swayed so violently
that some of the passengers were made
sick, and when it was stopped, it was at
such an angle that it was impossible to
walk through it. The mail-car was the
only one upset. and it was thrown down
an embankment, one end projecting over
the creek. The other cars remained on
the grade, but not wheel was on the
track. The mail clerk was hurt slightly
but no one else was injured. An extra
train was sent from Tekoa to the relief
of the wrecked train.

excitement was caused in the depart
den illness of Secretary Blaine. The
nature of his illness is not at present
known, but it is said to be due alto

quietly and being entirely out OF danger.
The secretary was removed to his

The Last Day.

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Jan. 6.-The last
day of the senatorial contest brings no
change in the situation. The only
question agitating the public mind is
stWhat will be Sherman's majority in
the senatorial caucus" His friends
claim this morning that he will receive
fifty-six votes and Foraker but thirty
six, but the friends of the ex-governor
will be beaten by twenty votes, and
many maintain he still has chance to
win. The chief interest today seems to
center in the question whether tonight s
senatorial ballot is to be open or secret.
Generally speaking, the Sherman people
are fighting for an open ballot and the
Foraker people for secret ballot.

A Murderin skaeit county.

SEATTLE, Jan. 5.-Word was brought
to this city late tonight of desperate
fight, ending in murder, which occurred
at Marble Mound, Skagit county, on
New Years day. Frank Barnes, Henry
Colby and d. E. Taylor were working in
the woods on the outskirts of Marble
Mound, which is located at the junction
of the Cascade and Skagit rivers. While
they were working, one Joseph Amerd,
a rancher, walked right up to Barnes
and ordered him to leave the country at
once. Barnes replied that he was not
ready to go. This seemed to enrage
Amerd greatly. He seized an ak near
by and went at Barnes, who ran, hotly
pursued by Amerd. The chase contin-
ued for sixty yards, when Barnes came
to a tree, against which leaned Win
chester rife. He stopped short, took
up the gun, and leveled it at his pursuer
who was some distance behind. A sharp
report was followed by slight stagger
on the part of Amerd, but he still kept
on coming. Barnes pulled the trigger
again and the ball lodged in Alnerd's
body. Although bleeding from two deep
wounds, Amerd came at Barnes like a
savage bear. He grabbed the gun by
the barrel and twisted it from his antag-
mist. The moment the gun was wrested
from his hands, Barnes drew Colts
revolver from his bosom and shot Amerd
through the heart. The third bullet did
the work and the man fell to the ground
dead. Barnes surrendered himself to
the justice of the peace. Amerd went
to Skagit county about year and half
ago and settled on unsurveyed govern
ment lands. During this time, he has
had several quarrels with different per-
sons, and from reports it would appear
that he was known as a quarrelsome
character in his new home. One of the
men with whom he had trouble is Frank
Barnes, and to this the murder is at
tributed. What the exact nature of the
differences were, has not been made
public. Amerd leaves wife and child
living on his ranch, and brother who
resides near Birdsyiew. The murdered
man was well known in Seattle.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 5.-The United
States supreme court rendered decision
today in favor of the Northern Pacific
Railway Company, in the mandamus
suit brought against it by the territory
of Washington, eX rel. Hiram Dustin,
prosecuting attorney OF Yakima county,
to compel the railway to maintain sta
ton and stop its trains at Yakima City.
Justice GRAY rendered the opinion of
the court. Justices Brewer, Field and
Harlan dissented. The bill sets forth
that Yakima City, ut the time of build
ing the road, was the county seat and
the largest town in that county, and the
object of the railroad company in refus-
ing to make Yakima City railway sta
ton was to ruin the town and enhance
the value of the town-site of North
Yakima, which the company had To-
Gated on unimproved lands belonging to
it. Justice Gray, in the opinion of the
court, says the writ of mandamus to
compel the railroad corporation to do a
particular act in constructing its road or
buildings, or in running its trains, can
be issued only when there is Il specific
legal duty on its part to do that act, and
clear proof of breach of duty. The
courts have so held, even in the matter
of establishing a station terminus of the
road. The difficulties in issuing a man
damus are much increased. when it is
sought to compel roads to stop trains at
particular place. The location of sta
tions and warehouses for receiving and
delivering passengers and freight in

terest of the public, as well as of the cor
poration. and consideration of many
circumstances concerning the amount of
business and convenience of a particular
location, which are more appropriate to,
be determined by the directors of the
company, or, in case of abuse of their
discretion by the legislature or by the
administrative boards intrusted by the
legislature with that duty, than by ordi-
nary judicial tribunals. Justice Gray
says the charter of the company does
not impose any specific duty as to the.
maintenance and size of the stations,
and that to compel the directors to be
controlled by courts, by writs of man
damus, in establishing stations, would
be inconsistent with many previous de-
cision.
