ATTORNEY GENERALS POSITION
He VIII Act as Assistant to Local
Authorities,

Attorney General Childs, seen at
his residence at Merriam Park last
evening and asked if he would take any
action in regard to the lynching, said:
Il do not yet know any of the partic-
ulars of the hanging, but I will go to
Glencoe tomorrow morning to aid
County Attorney Allen in the investi-
cation which he will institute. I re-
ceived telegram from him today noti-
flying me of the lynching and asking
me to come to Glencoe at once. Fur
Their than this. he did not say. The
Only action which can now be taken in
the matter is to hold an inquest over
the bodies Of the dead men and ascer-
tain the cause of their death In this
way If any Of those participating in
the lynching are known it will come
out, and warrants will then be imme-
diately issued for their arrest by the
authorities Of Mcleod county. The
lynching is greatly to be deplored, es-
pecially after Musgrove had stood his
trial, and 1 have no doubtsbut that the
proper officials will do all in their
power to bring to justice the perpetra-
tors of the deed"

At the banquet to Erastus Wiman this
evening by the Millers club, that gentleman
will have abundant opportunity to elucidate
his proposals for saving large sum for our
chief industries in freight reductions to the
seaboard. His plan is to revive traffic over
the Erie canal. Mr.. Wiman has given mucn
attention to this subject. and has at length
aroused the authorities of New York to the
Importance of doing something to save their
declining commerce. The Minneapolis mil
ers and jobbers are not likely to De SLOW 10
take advantage of any offers that promise to
cheaper rates. Mr.. Wiman's speech will, no
doubt, contain much of value.

GOV. CLoUGH TALKS.
Says He VIII Push the Investiga-
ton.

Gov. D. M. Clough, when seen last
evening, at his residence in Mime
apoHs, expressed great surprise that
men could be found in the usually law
abiding state of Minnesota who could
be induced to participate in q crime of
such enormity He knew nothing of
the details of the affair, and was re-
luctant to talk for publication until he
should be furnished with official infor-
nation, but said that his office could
not IN any way be blamed in the mat
ter. AT the time the two suspected
men were arrested and confined in the
jail at Glencoe" he said. 'T received
a telegram late in the evening from
the deputy sheriff of Mcleod county,
informing me of the arrest and further
stating that danger of lynching was
threatened. He asked that aid be sent
to prevent such a result / immedi-
ately ordered a company of the state
militia to proceed to Glencoe, and sue
ceeded in getting company of troops
off on the first train for Glencoe The
prisoners were at once brought to ST.
Paul in charge of the sheriff of Nc
Leod county and his deputies, with the
company of militia as an escort. They
were placed In the Ramsey county jail.
and that was the last l had heard of
them until this morning. While in the
Jail at st. Paul, they were really in
charge of the authorities of Mcleod
county, and I had no more to do with
them as governor of the state than any
private citizen had. I did not know
when they were taken back to Glen
coe, and was not aware that their trial
had taken place. l had no intimation
whatever that any danger was to be
feared Of lynching at this late day, and
had | known of the return of the men,
would have supposed it was all right,
otherwise the sheriff would have asked
for protection"
Asked if he considered that the Nc
Leod county authorities had acted with
remissness, the governor refused to
talk, saying that he had no information
whatever as to how the affair oc-
CURED. 1t would be unfair to condemn
the sheriff until he knew the facts. He
stated, however, that an effort would
be made to bring to justice the per-
petrators Of the deed, and had no doubt
the Mcleod county authorities would
do their full duty In this regard. AS
to his own plans he refused to be
quoted, saying that the matter was one
that required mature deliberation. He
thought that 1t would be a difficult
matter to fix the blame of the affair
upon the right parties, but as governor
of the state, he intended to do what
he could to bring to justice the guilty
parties
