PLAYING A DEEP GAME.
Blixt Refuses to Have Any Conyersatios
with Attorneys.

with Attorneys.
MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, Dec. 1S.-Gen-
Hahn and Frank Carleton, the attor-
neys appointed by Judge Hicks to de-
TEND Claus A. Blixt, the murderer Of
Miss Catherine Cling, made call on
their client at the county jail yester-
day afternoon, but they met with a
cold reception. When they told him
they had been appointed to defend
him he declined to talk with them as
he had received word that his father
would be here in the morning, and he
will do nothing and talk to no one
until then. There is suspicion in
the county attorneys Office that Blixt
is playing deep game. This is why
he refused the legal talent offered him,
and many believe Blixt wants to get
hold of some shyster lawyer who will
fix up deal with Harry Hayward to
clear both Blixt and HAYWARD.
Blixt will talk only to Sheriff Eye,
but yesterday the sheriff gave out some
interesting conversations that he had
with Bli&t. His idea of the use of the
L rail was that it was to be placed out
on the country road, where they were
to meet third party, and then Blixt
was to smash Miss Cling on the head
with piece of steel. Blixt insists he
understood that a third party was in
on the murder and he expected to meet
him there. He says that he is going
into court and tell his entire story to
the judge, and now it looks as if he
would be satisfied with no other course

CLAIMS MUCH OF CHICAGO.
Knoxville Man Would Like a Slice of the
City's Heart.


KNOXVILLE, Tenn, Dec. 1s.-Dr. w.
Fl. Richards of this city has jast re-
ceived information which leads him to
believe that he is owner of some of the
most valuable ground in Chicago,
perhaps that on which some of
the Windy city's best buildings
now stand, and he will enter suit for
his rights. A few days ago DR.. Rich
ards was visited by his cousin, Polk
Davis, of Missouri, whom he had not
seen for many years. The object of
the visit was highly important, prob
ably involving large fortune for each
of the gentlemen. By comparison of
notes they found that many years ago,
when Chicago was village, their grand
father obtained patent to land in
Cook county, ILL.,, which is now the
city of Chicago. In some manner the
grant was lost to the heirs, SO that up
to the present time they have obtained
no benefit from it, but Dr. Richards
and Mr.. Davis think they can revive
the grants and obtain equitable title
to the property that was owned by
their ancestors. Mr.. Davis has gone to
Virgininia to look up the original
grant. and is expected in Knoxville in
a few days, when they will do some
thing definite in the matter.

That's How the Brutal Boy Murder at
Pana, Ill, is Explained.

hhat 3 Row the brutal BOY Murder at
Pana, Ill, is Explained.
PANA, Ill, Dec. 1S.-The details of
the murder of the boy found Saturday
afternoon become more interesting as
the investigation proceeds The cir
cumstantial evidence now. indicates
that the boy was slain by his partner
for his clothes. The remains laid in
the morgue allday yesterday and were
viewed by hundreds of people, many of
whom say they have seen the murdered
boy but none identy him. The territory
in the neighborhood where the deed
was committed was searched and it
was found that a picket off q
fence was used as the instrument
of death. The skull was caved in
over the right eye, there was small,
deep cash over the left eye, and hor-
rible cash in the back of the head
After killing the boy his assailant
tried to hide his crime by bury
ing the victim. He was tracked across
a corn field and then was traced about
a mile and half southwest, where the
trail was lost. 1t was here, however,
where the man was seen by a farmer
about o'clock Saturday afternoon,
but the farmer could not tell which
way he went. The supposed murderer
is an Italian about five feet six inches
and crippled in his right hand. The
jury has not yet reached decision. 1t
adjourned last evening to meet again
this morning.
