The Minneapolis Journal of Tues
day contained a special from this
place doubling the verdict of the cor
oner's jury in the case of the death of
McIlliny, at Sanborn. The fact that
McIlliny was badly cut on the fore
head, a very dangerous place, in row
with Conner, the night before, has a
tendency to corroborate the Journal
special, and to confirm the belief that
there is strong suspicion of murder in
the case. The fact, also, that Conner
robbed another man, the night of the

large tree in the yard of Gilbert Nc

wagon, belonging to Laird & Dorn-
berg was blown from it's platform on
the north side of Second street into
the street. About fifteen feet was
blown from the top of the smoke
stack over the engine house of G. w.
VanDusen & Co.'s elevator.

ner, was arrested, and under alleged
duress. decided over his property to
his wife, and was allowed to escape.
In the Lincoln county case the guilty
one was a person named Nygaard,
who had boy, which he received
from school for dependent children
and orphans in Illinois. The child
was terribly misused, and Nygaard,
fearing prosecution, started to leave
