ceived from the southern parts of these
states, which, as the most thickly
populated, control the legislation.
Capt Alexander McDougall is firm
in 1.-THE position he has taken and
earnestly asserts that a new state
should be set aside to include the
mineral portions of the common
wealths of Michigan, Wisconsin and
Minnesota, which have repeatedly
been snubbed and ignored by the
southern interests of the states. Very
recently a proposition was made by
the Minnesota legislature to bring
about the annexation of the portion
of Northern Wisconsin on which
Superior is situated to the State-,o
Minnesota. Later the Wisconsin
legislature proposed to secure the an
neXation of that part of Minnesota
which includes Duluth to Wisconsin
1t is hoped by this means to bring
the interests of both cities and the
contiguous mineral sections into
common interest. t-
Until the feasibility of either1of these
plans is tried and found wanting.
Capt McDougall will not urge his
new state scheme and will persuade
those who hold his views to take no
action.

Sin and Michigan, but there is inter-
est enough in the suggestion to set
men thinking. A very compact,
quite populous and very wealthy
state could be made out of the terri
tory as outlined by the black line of
the diagram given elsewhere, but
where so many interests are to be
considered and so many state legis-
latures would have to have a hand
in the laying out of the new great
commonwealth it would be we'll nigh
impossible to bring the scheme from
the bud to the flower. The caloric-
tmpregnated speech of Senator Spen-
Ger on Friday, containing the threat
of secession, set great Minneso-
tians to wondering whether or not
leading men about the head of Lake
Superior had not been seriously con-
sidering the matter of forming new
state for some time. The
senator, however, on Saturday, re-
lieved his community from the stig-
ma of plotting to leave Mother Min
nesota by stating fatty that st. Louis
county loved the parent state so well
that she would ever remain loyal. A
lot of trash has been sent out from
Duluth; it is true, stating that that
great community was wildly enthu-
siastic over the prospect of becom-
Ing part of any state provided it was
not Minnesota, but this twaddle
largely emanated from the fertile
brains of a coterie of string f1ends"

ed. Railroads have for years, been
legally empowered to rob the travel
ing public. Many laws are different in
this section from those in the southern
section, so that in many respects this
vicinity is treated like conquered

ment of 10 cents mile for mileage for
members of the state legislature from

said to be much of benefit to the

SAULT' STE, MARIE, Mich, April
20.-William Smell, prominent lawyer
of this city, in an interview today ex-
pressed his pleasure at the impetus
given the matter of forming a new
state, project he has publicly ia
vored for years. The general feeling
in Chippewa county and other parts
of the upper peninsula is that the
new state should be created. Taxa
ton will not be increased on account
of the additional territory taken, en-
bracing the principal mineral and tim
Der districts of Michigan, Minnesota

Francisco; that she came to her
death on account of hemorrhage due
to lacerated wounds and asphyxia
due to strangulation. We further
find from evidence that murder was
committed by one Theodore Durant.
and we charge him with the crime. -
When Durant was shown the YER
dict after his return to the city
prison his face flushed for the first
time since the terrible crime for
which he is accused was discov-
cred. Miss Gertrude Taber, a step
sister of Elmer. Wolff, the young
man whose name has been frequent
ly mentioned in the case, has come
forward and identified the pocket
hood which was found on the Sand
bruno road by clam digger, and
which contained some papers, among
which was a business card of DR..
Vogen, on the back of which was
written the name of Miss Williams
FACTS AGAINST WOLFF.
Miss sTaber says She missed the
pocketbook some time. ago while out
riding, and explains the presence of
the card by saying that Miss Will
Jams visited her home some weeks
ago and wrote her address on one
of DR.. Vogel's cards. Elmer Wolff S
testimony at the inquest was slight
ly mixed, and some of Durant's
friends thought he knew more of
the crime than he wished to tell,
and pointed to the finding of the
pocketbook to substantiate their
claim. 1t is a peculiar coincidence
THAT the pocketbook should have
been lost by one so closely related
to Wolff and found at this critical
time
Mrs. Durant, mother of the ac-
cused, says that she has evidence
for the defense which will go to
upset the bearing of the statement
of Witness Hill, who testified be-
fore the coroner's jury that he had
seen couple answering the de-
scription of Durant and the dead
girl standing near the church about
$50 on the night, and who after
wards entered the church yard. Mrs.
Durant says that couple had come
to her and stated that they entered
the church yard about the time Hill
claims to have seen couple pass
into the front gate.

of the Murders.
SAN FRANCISCO, April 19.-That
section of the city where Emanuel
church is located was originally the
Mission Dolores, founded by the friars
hundred years ago, and is to this
day generally designated as 1.-The mis-
sion.'' Popular sentiment of the. mis-
sion favors the razing of the edifice.
This telling extends even to those who
are not financially interested in the
property, but have an interest in the
moral atmosphere of the neighbor-
hood. The church has always been
under a cloud. A stain of human
blood marks it's history from one pas
tor who killed newspaper proprietor,
and who blew out his brains, and
thence to the awful tragedy that is
now before the people. Everywhere
is heard. the expressions: Burn the
place down."
The feeling is that the church should
never again be opened as a place of
worship. AS a result of these threat
ening expressions, the insurance COM
panies have Cancelled their policies
and the police have been on guard
there since the tragedy. 1t is report
ed that. Durant and his lawyers are
preparing a statement, outlining the
defense, which will be an endeavor to
prove an alibi.

TO WED HIS OWN WIFE.
Aged Scout and Pathfinder Seeks
License to Marry


KANSAS CITY, April 1S.--W. J.
Cannon, Bill" Cannon, soldier,
scout, pathfinder" and a man sew
enty-four years Of age, has applied
for a marriage license. What was
more, he wanted to marry his own
wife. They were married in the
70's, but Cannon went West soon
afterward, deserving his wife. Two
years ago, after a most remarkable
career, he returned East and be-
came am inmate of the soldiers
home at Leavenworth. In the
meantime, believing her husband
dead. and desiring to transact some
legal business, Mrs. Cannon applied
for a divorce, which was granted.
Recently Cannon decided he wanted
to again live with his wife. and
commenced correspondence and she
accepted him. Cannon was a friend
OF Kit Carson in his time, of James
Beckwith, wild Bill" James
Bowie and the rest of that band of
Indian fighters. No man ever had a
more romantic history. A bow of
tourteen,he was at the horrible mas
sacre of the Alamo. Of which he
is the sole survivor. To him Dayy
Crockett entrusted the last words
he wrote just before death came
upon him. The boy, in the disguise
of a Mexican, escaped the massacre
and carried the awful tidings to the
world. In the Mexican war he
served with distinction, and at the
conclusion became government
scout and interpreter. Cannon's
adventures on the plains, in the
civilawar and later in the mountains
of Montana and California would
require volumes to tell.

guilty of the murder of Minnie Will
iams.. The usual crowd of curiosity
seekers was present when the in
quest was resumed this morning.
Durant and his attorneys were also
present. Elmer Wolf. the young man
whose statements have been ques-
toned recently, was recalled to the
stand and offered to produce wit
nesses to substantiate all he had
said previously in regard to his
movements on the night Minnie
Williams was murdered, but the
coroner declined the offer, and both
that official and the chief of police
said they were satisfied with VOLTS
statements, and did not believe he
was connected with the crime Two
of Durant's comrades in the ma
tional guard company were ex-
amined, and said that on the after
noon of the night that Minnie Will
Jams was murdered they saw Du-
rant lettering about the ferry at the
foot Of Market street and talked to
him. They said Durant told them
he did not expect to be at the
armory that night, and he asked
them to respond to his name at roll
call. ....-.
DR.. Bartlett, who conducted the
autopsy, testified that Minnie Will
Jams died of asphyxiation, as a re-
suit of having part of her clothing
forced down her throat by the muir
derer, and that the knife wounds
found on various parts of her body
were inflicted after death. He also
testified that the girl had been out
ragged, and that previous to the
time of the tragedy she had led a
BLAMELESs LIFE.
Several other. witnesses were ex-
amined on minor matters, and about
IL o'clock the coroner announced
he had no more testimony to offer,
though he called Durant to the
stand, and the latter left his seat
as If to present himself for exam
fnation, and then looked toward his
attorney, who advised him not to
speak, and no further effort was
made to question him. The jury
did not occupy an hour in delibera-
ton, and returned a verdict before
noon charging Durant with the
murder Of Minnie Williams. 1t was
the case of her death only that was
being investigated. The case of the
murder Of Blanche Lamont will be
taken up later. Durant was not
present when the jury brought in
their verdict at 11:40. The coroner's
jury returned the

Minister Hatch Upholds His Su-
observation-disclosures on the
Island.


SAN FRANCISCO. April 20.-The
steamer Australia arrived this morn
ing, bringing the following advices
to the Associated Press, under date
of April 10: Minister Thurston re-
turned from Washington this morn
ing. Soon after his arrival he was
closeted with Minister Hatch. The
latter official, in an interview with
the Associated Press correspondent.
stated that Thurston had not been re-
called. AS far as he knew, the
American minister had not received
any notification of recall, or at least
he had not animated to the govern
menf that he has, up to the time
for the departure Of the steamer.
Minister Hatch defends Thurston's
course while at Washington, and is
confident that ne was not guilty of
any breach of diplomatic propriety.
He stated that Minister Thurston
had mot been entrusted with any
communications in regard to a trial
of the rebels, so it is quite impossible
for him to make public any news in
advance Of Gresham's advices from
heresl In the matter of the cable en-
terpBise, in which it is alleged that
..Thurston took part, this government
defends his course also, and does not
see how any improperly could exist.
In closing, Mr.. Hatch said: IF
Thurston has stated any facts in re-
gard to local affairs he had a perfect
right to do So"
Thurston may not return to Wash
ington, as it is understood he would
prefer to remain here In govern
ment circles it is stated that he is
here to consult with the government
on various matters. If he decides to
quit his post at Washington, the posi-
ton will probably be offered to N. NJ
Armstrong. The councils held a
meeting on the 18th inst, when it
was announced that the government
had decided to pardon v. Ashford.

ing that Duluth shall be united to the

agreeable to the suggestion that
Superior is placed elsewhere than in
Wisconsin. 1t is said that the legisla-
