WILLARD COMES BACK.
5laimed He VIII Again Take tbntrol Of
the Northern Pacific.

tue NOftReEh
ST. PAUL, March 16.-The st. Paul
stockholders have received kilograms
announcing the early arrival of Henry
Willard In New York from Europe.
One telegram real thus; Willard in
New York; in two Weeks viii take
charge Of Northern Pacific Receiver
Cakes, who is in st. Paul at present,
was seen in regard to this matter and
he discredited the idea. He seemed
amused by the report that Mr.. Willard
will head the company again. "How
can he do it?'' he asked, smiling.
Hasn't Been Wasting Time.
On the outside considerable credence
is given the report. One st. Paul rail-
road president remarked that he is con.
vinced Mr.. Willard will get control. "It
was told by a reliable party who is
pretty close to the situation" he said,
''that Mr. Willard will be in this country
very shortly and become prominent
again in business. He will not work
himself into the Northern Pacific right
away, because that would be injudi-

wasting any time when i'll Germany,
where most of the bonds are."
|, Receiver Oakes was asked regarding
other Northern Pacific matters, but was
non-committal in almost every case.
Regarding the reorganization he said
there was nothing new whatever. Re-
garding his prospective residence in st.
Paul he said nothing had been definitely
decided upon. but that it is possible he
may make this city his headquarters.
One important statement Mr.. Cakes
made i'll reference to lake and rail rates
which discriminate against st. Paul, es-
pecially Oh iron westbound. 1--WE will
meet the Great Northern this season as
we did last season, he said. "You say
those rates from Pittsburg are the same
as from st. Paul, much to the detriment
Of 9obbers here. We should be very
well pleased to put those rates back to
the old basis as requested. You had
better talk to Mr.. j. J. Hill about this
when he returns"

MURUCUA SKEPTICAL
The Spanish Minister Views
the AilianCa Affair with
Suspicion.
looks LIKE A SERPENT STORY
He Also Doesn't Believe Re-
ports AS to the Progress ct
Cuba'S Rebellion.

WASHINGTON, March l6. - Senior
Murugua, the Spanish munster, had
not been informed up to IL O'Clock,
either by his government or by the state
department Of the United States Of the
demand OH Spain through our minister
at Madrid. He was pursuing his inves-
legations of the Allianca affairs, and
had received teleyraphic and mail re-
ports from the governor general of Cuba,
all of which stated that there was no
information of the Spanish gunboat,
although the officials along the eastern
coast Of Cuba, where the supposed out
rage occurred, had been on the lookout.
Sea Serpent Affair.
For my part said the minister,
this looks very much like a sea serpent
affair. Every now and then IA captain
says that he has seen the sea serpent
and came near being swallowed up by
it,. Captain Crossman is no doubt a
worthy officer. but it looks very much
as though he had had IA dream as to see-
ing IL Spanish gunboat There are no
affidavits as yet, and the proper course
would be to exact affidavits from the
crew and passengers Of the Alliance,
and find out if they agree with the
statement of Captain Crcssman.
The Cuban Revolution.
The letter from the captain general
of Cuba received by Minister Murugua
says that rything is quiet in five
provinces and that the only danger
comes from the possibility of shipping
arms and ammunition from the United
States The people of Cuba, reports the
captain general, are entirely opposed to
all disturbance, this being the case,
even with the leaders of the former
revolution.
Senior Marugua was asked how this
report from the captain-general could
be reconciled with the statement of
Colonel Fierrardo at Tampa, Fla, who
has just arrived from Cuba, and who,
as published, said that the revolution
lists had held constitutional conven-
ton. chosen commander-in-ch and
ENJOYS to foreign governments and were
about to choose a president for the new
republic, and issue declaration Of in
dependence.
1T is probable such things could have
occurred" said the minister, land all
mention of the insurgent program be
withheld by the captain general in
writing to me. 1t is part Of the insur-
gent program to spread false reports. !"
Doesn't Believe the Report.
The minister also denied the report of
the killing of 500 Spanish soldiers at the
battle of Veginta, saying such calam-
ity would have been quickly reported
to him.
Senior Murugua was asked if any
steps would be taken concerning Colonel
Fierrardo or other, ut T..mpa. He said
the proper course would be for the Span
ish consul at Tampa to report the facts
to the Spanish legation here, whereupon
proceedings could be taken before a
magistrate for the arrest of Colonel
Ferrardo for q breach of the neutrality
laws.

SURPRISED At THE DEMAND.

Spanish Minister Shocked at the Urgency
Of Gresham's Note.
WASHINGTON, March 16.-As soon as
the text of Secretary Gresham's de-
mand on Spain was received, it was
taken by representative of the Asso-
ciated Press to Senior Murugua, the
Spanish minister.
II am astonished," said he, that
this course has been taken, when as yet
only one side Of the story is told, and
and action must be based by the ex-
parte statement of Captain Crossman. -
The minister scanned the text Of the
deman forwarded to Spain. Com
menting OH the severity of the language
that ,''this government will expect
prompt disavowal," and "due express
sion" Of regret OH the part of Spain,
with immediate and positive orders
to Spanish naval commanders.
Senior Murugua had received no copy
of the demand from the state depart
ment, nor any intimation that this step
had been or would be taken, nor had
any word yet come from the Spanish
government to him. As it had gone
directly to United States Minister Tay-
lor at Madrid, to be by him communi-
Gated to Spain. Senior Murugua said
the course would be for Spain to make
her reply to Mr.. Taylor, who would
communicate it to the state department.
Asked whether Spain would apologize
the minister said she undoubtedly
would, if, after investigation, it was
found the commander of the warship,
il there was any, had acted wrongly.

HANSON MURDER
A St. Paul Mystery of Seven
Years Standing Fipally
- Unravelled.
The MURDERER ONE CLANCEY
And He Is Now a Raving Mans
lac in an Illinois Insane
Asylum.

ST. PAUL, March l6.-The man who
killed Policeman Hans Hanson, nearly
seven years ago, has been found. The
man who fred the shot on the night of
Aug. 3, 1888, is Patrick Clancy, alias
John Harrington, who is now incarcer-
ated in the state insane asylum at Kan
kakee, Ills. The two other men who
were with Clancey when he shot Police
man Hanson are William Hennessy and
John Thornton. They are still
ut large, and one of them was in st.
Paul few months ago. He>was not
arrested, as there is no charge that can
be brought against him, it being fixed
beyon peradventure that he was only
u witness to the tragedy, and not a par.
ticipator. Officers have been on track
of the murderer for some time but he
has kept little ahead OF them. When
finally located the principal was in the
asylum. One Of Clancy's pals has given
the story as told him by Clancy i'll their
wanderings. The murder was not pre-.
meditated or intentional, the shots be-
ing fired at random, as the officer was
chasing the men after having fright
eniug them from an unoccupied resi-
dence they were trying to burglarize.

GETTING AT THE FACTS.
The Defense Making a Strong Fight for
Harry Hayward

MINNEAPOLIS, Feb. 2O.-Mrs. Adry Hay
ward was witness in the Cling trial to-
day. Her testimony simply bore on the
question of the time Harry Hayward
called at Adry's flat on the night of the
murder, which she could not fix def nitely,
and the time she and Adry left to 90 TO
her parents house, which was about
o'clock.
Preceding Mrs. Adry Hayward's testi-
mony Horace L. Wells, paying teller of
the City bank, and Louise Ireland, we're
sworn. Wells testified to having paid
Hayward between 81. 900 and 5000 after
Sept. 1, 1891, thus accounting for the de-
PENDANTS possession of the money that
did not come from Miss Cling.
Miss Ireland was questioned by the de-
Tense as TO Harry calling at the fiat on the
days preceding and on the day of the
murder.
Mrs. L. L. Hayward, mother of the de-
fendant, testified hat Harry came into
her room at 20 o'clock and said he was
going to make a call. About 7:i0 o'clock
he came in again, hurriedly brushed his
hair and went out, saying he was going to
the opera. 1t was between these two
times, according to Blixt's testimony, that
Harry put him in tho buggy with Miss
Cling, with instructions to drive away and
kill her.
Mrs. Hayward was next asked about
the existence of insanity in the family,
but the state at once objected, as the ques-
ton of insanity would not be raised. The
objection was not sustained by the court.
II am raising the question now" said
Irwin.
"Who is insane?n said the court, COM
ing at once to the meat of the matter.
''We wish to show that at the time previ-
Gus to his going to Elder Stewart, and at
that time, Adry was resting under a de-
lusion," said Irwin.
"Well, suppose no was insane, what
them"
''It would affect his credibility before
this jury and his competence to testify"
"The court determined as to his compe-
tency when he was on the stand and there
was no offer to prove contrary. Insane
persons, especially those who are mono
maniacs, and not competent to testify,
are reported to the court"
Irwin asked n long series of questions
bearing on Adry's actions, his jealousy,
his unreasoning fears during youth, the
medical treatment he had been given, and
tho like, but they were ali ruled out. Mrs
Hayward could not answer a direct ques
tion as TO tho differences between Adry
and Harry afiirmatIvely or negatively.
