TWO masked men who assaulted him
with clubs.

knocked senseless. They gagged and

He gave them IS, which was all he

mousse and upon his denial proceeded
to beat him.
linen they tied him to bed and
burned the soles of his feet with a
lamp to make him confess where the
money was hidden. After abusing him
about an hour they concluded he had

They united his hands and feet and,

His injuries are severe and the
shock to his system leaves him in a

recover. He can give but a meager

LOSE THEIR CLAIMS.
Lands to Be Taken From Northern
Wisconsin Settlers.

Ashland, Wis, Oct. 6.-About 100
settlers on Omaha lands and fifteen o.
twenty on Wisconsin Central lands
will lose their claims by two decisions
made by Secretary Smith Yesterday.
The most important decision is that in
the case of Newell VS.. Hussey, which
was decided against both parties by the
local land officers.
The case went before Secretary Noble
who affirmed the decision and then
went before Secretary Smith who sus-
tains Secretary Noble. The case in
wolves about 10000 acres estimated to
be worth about 100000. There are
about $50 settlers on the land ques-
ton who have held on, hoping that they
would gain homestead rights as actual
settlers prior to Nov ., 1891.
The decision is that being on the land
before that date gave no prior right.
The other decision affected Wisconsin
Central lands and knocked out Pat
Hyncs and about fifteen other settlers.
The case of William Hooper against
the keystone Lumber company has
been decided by Secretary Smith
against the company.

Wounded Iron River Homestea dcr Has
a Narrow Escape.
West Superior, Wis, Oct. 4.-Joseph
Heider, of West Superior, Il home
steader Who lives near Iron River,
Wis, had a thrilling experience with
wolves a few miles from Iron River
Sunday evening
Heider had been out hunting for
deer and his gun was charged with
buckShOt. While scrambling through
some bushes one barrel of the gun was
discharged and a volley of shot entered
his left arm and right thigh.
AT the time Of the accident 1t was
very fortunate for him that he was
near some houses of other homestead
erS. He lay unconscious on the ground
for three quarters Of an
hour, and after gaining consciousness
his cries attracted these homesteaders
and they reached him just in time to
save him from a most frightful death
The wolves, which at this season Of
the year are very vicious, had gathered
about him in large numbers and yelp-
ing they were making preparations
for q great feast Holder was taken
to Iron River, where mellcal attend
ance was given him, and his wound is

FANORS THE QUEEN.
Mr.. Blount Likely to Recommend q
Plebiscite to Decide.

Washington, Oct 5.-An executive
message on Hawaiian affairs has been
prepared for some weeks, ready for
TRANSMISSION to the senate whenever
action on the silver question permits
the consideration of other business.
The contents of this message have
been as carefully guarded by the state
department, as secrets of this charac-
ter usually are, the only information
vouchsafed in respect to the document
being that embodied in the recommerl-
dations of Minister and Special Com
missioner Blount
AS the subject of the Withdrawn
Hawaiian treaty is one which the SELL
ate has only considered in executive
session, it is assumed that the presi-
dents message is addressed to the
senate, in its confidential capacity.
The Baltimore Sun in it's Washing
ton columns states that it is able to
disclose for the first time the nature
of Mr.. Byount's recommendation,
which is that the question of es-
tablishing a protectorate over the is
lands of the United States should be
submitted to a plebiscite in which the
natives and the foreign born residents
should have equal rights Of voting.
1T is inferred that if this course
should be adopted, the inevitable re
suit would be the establishment of
the supremacy of Claus Sprecles and
the monarchy, as the ex-queen is I'M
derstood to retain all her popularity

RAILWAY CASUALTIES.

sion's report just submitted shows that
the number of passengers killed in
1891 is largely IN excess Of that Of
the year before, being $40 in 1892
against 293 in 1891; while the number
of passengers injured was 1927 in 1892
against 1912 in 1891. An assignment
of casualties TO the opportunity offered
for accidents shows l employee to have
been killed for every 80 employees,
and one emp-eye to have been injured
for each % men in the employ of the

passengers carried or for each 35,542,
80 passenger miles, and 1 passenger
injured for each 1883 passengers
carried or each 4,140,966 passenger

ing and uncoupling cars 37S employees
having been killed and 10,319 injured

Messrs- Payne, Rouse and Cakes VIII
Undoubtedly Be Named = -Four
Schooners Detached from yng
and Blown Out Into Lake Michi-
gan-Wisconsin Dispatches.

Milwaukee, Oct. 5.-Receiver Henry
G. Payne, of the Northern Pacific
Railroad, arrived home this afternoon
from business trip ITO New York OF
affairs in connection with the Northern
Pacific properties, Mr.. Payne said:
AL of the twenty-seven branch
lines in the northwest, the stock of
which is held by the Northern Pacific
company, will be placed in the hands
Of receivers except, perhaps, three or
four.
These branch properties will be in
the hands of separate receivers. eX-
cept that Henry Stanton, of New York,
VIII be the eastern receiver for all of
them, and additional receivers will be
selected from the states through which
the roads run. The receivers of the
main property will have nothing to do
with the branches. Mr.. Stanton was
one Of the attorneys for the Northern
Pacific receivers but recently resigned.
There are no changes in the situa ton
on the main property.
In regard to the difficulty between
the Northern Pacific railroad and the
Wisconsin Central company with re
ference to the payment of the bond
interest of the Chicago & Northern
Pacific railroad, Mr.. Payne said that
the receivers had nothing ITO do with
the matter
They as receivers were not liable
for the interest, he said, as part of
the terms of the CentraPs lease stipu-
lated that the Central should pay the
bond interest. This Mr.. Payne said,
was regarded as part of the rent.
The defau-t ting of the bond interest
left the matter in the hands Of the
Farmers Loan and Trust company, of
New York, and he said that it would
take some action within a few days.
What action would be taken Mr.. Payne
did not know, but inferred that it
would take some legal form.
In regard to politics in the east, Mr..
Payne said that the officials of the re
publican national committee had the
matter of the selection of the national
headquarters under consideration
They were talking Of opening the head
quarters at New York and Mr.. Payne
was Of the opinion that this would be
the ultimate result. He understood
that the headquarters would be open
for active work some time this fall.
Milwaukee, Wis, Oct Cit is learned
here that application will be made to
the United States court in Chicago to-
morrow morning to appoint Il receiver
for the Chicago and Northern Pacific
The attorneys say that there is no
doubt the receivers of the Northern
Pacific, Messrs. Cakes, Rouse and
Payne, will be appointed.

she will have another palace built. She
is actively canvassing the natives for
