Belief Is General That the Great

Which Are Characterized
as "Sympathetic."
The Story That Hill Has Secured
Controlling Interest in the
N. P. Not Verified.

New YORK, Feb. 2O.-The renewed
report, set afoat from time to time,
that President j. J. Hill of the Great
Northern railroad. has secured a con-
trolling interest in the Northern Pa
cific railroad cannot be verified from
any authoritive source in Wall street.
The revival of the story at this time at
tracts no attention from dealers in rail-
road securities, who have had informa-
tion of such a state Of things for sew
eral weeks. AS chronicled in this re-
port, general credence is given to the
supposition that the recent heavy trans.
actions in Northern Pacific for German
account were designed to secure a
sympathetic administration of North
ern Pacific and Great Northern. 1t
became known on Feb. /, that the
bankers syndicate. which underworld
the Northern Pacific plan of reorgani.
zation, had sold two-thirds Of the stock
securing it to the Duetsche bank of
Berlin and others.
They Are Friends OF HUI.
The purchasers are recognized as
close friends of President Hill and OF
the Great Northern. Northern Pacific
securities have been dealt in on the
stock exchange ever since, on the con.
viction that Mr.. Hill will henceforth
have an influential voice in the dircc-
ton of Northern Pacific affairs. This
sale was regarded as the elimination
of plan for the sympathetic control Of
the two roads long in contemplation
and the mutual advantage of which is
obvious. The almost simultaneous an.

Horrible Sextuple Tragedy Occurs ON .
Ranch Near Winona, N. ID.
WINoNA. N. D., Feb. 2O-A horrible
sextuple tragedy was discovered one
mile from this place on the ranch OF
Rev. Thomas Spicer. The horribly
mutilated bodies of Mr.. and Mrs.
Spicer, their daughter, Mrs. William
House, with her year-old twin boys,
and the aged Mrs. Waldron, the
mother of the postmaster of this place,
were discovered, and there is as yet no
positive clue to the perpetrators Of the
horrible crime. The appearances and
some other circumstances have led to
the suspicion that the murder was com.
mitted by Indians, and this suspicion
was in part started from the known
fact that one Indian
Was Seen in the Neighborhood
of the ranch the previous day. Then
the bodies were terribly mut;lated, and
the condition of the bodies shows that
this had been done with axes and clubs,
which fact is taken to at least partially
corroborate the suspicion of Indian
murderers. The Standing Rock Indian
reservation is not far away and when
the Indians from there get away and
manage to get hold Of some whisky
there is sure to be trouble. If the mur-
der was committed by Indians the
murderers are undoubtedly now back
among the reservation Indians. There
is much excitement here over the
tragedy

FIGURES CUT OUT.

Original Sugar Trust Deed Mutilated to
Evade Legislative Curiosity.
New YORK, Feb. 2O.-The Lexow com.
mittee tried conclusions with the sugar,
rubber and wall paper trusts at differ.
ent times during the day. With re.
spect to the sugar trust, it developed
that the original deed, desired by the
committee, would be of no value, as
the figures were cut out of it during a
previous investigation. Some papers
desired by the committee were pre-
sented, but others were said to be out
of existence. Mr.. Parsons, who mutil.
ated the trust deed under which the
sugar stock was apportioned, was on
the stand and admitted the fact.

NOT TO LIKING
Resentment of Emperor William
at the Action of Salisbury
Is Bitter.
His Dignity Evidently Wounded,
Probably Because Greece
Didn't Trelnble.
British Warships Prevent the
Landing of Greek Troops
at Aphios.

BERLIN. Feb. 1.-The newspapers of
this city reflect the bitter resentment
felt by Emperor William at the rejec.
tion by the Marquis of Salisbury of his
majesty's personal proposal to coerce
bya joint blockade Of the Pir9us,
the port of Athens, by the fleets of the
powers, in order to check the warlike
demonstrations of Greece.
s-Fhe emperor's proposal caused great
surprise in diplomatic circles. as it was
generally assumed that he would not
oppose the Greek pretensions in regard
to Crete, owing to his sister Sophia be-
ing the wife of the Duke of Sparta, the
crown prince of Greece. But it appears
that there has long been an estrange-
ment between the emperor and his Sis
ter, arising from old time quarrels, and
his majesty, in addition, never having
been over friendly to the royal family
of Greece.
In diplomatic circles it is surmised
that Emperor Williams dignity was
injured in some manner, probably by
the firm attitude assumed by Greece
in the face of the remonstrances of the
powers, of Germany in particular. and
hence the extreme proposal to blockade
the Piraus, which was urged by his
majesty with unusual vehemence,
through the ambassadors here upon the
European cabinet.
The Marquis of Salisbury, without
any hesitation, promptly declined the
emperor's proposition, saying that the
public opinion in Great Britain would
never acquiese to such policy.
The National Zeitung makes direct
charges against the British Of attempt.
ing to disturb the peace of Europe. and
says:
THE immediate future will show
whether the agreement of the powers
will be disturbed by a manifestation Of
separate British interests, which prom
ises to raise the veil hitherto hiding
the origin of the extremely strange
Greek adventure. From the outset it
has been the opinion that there was
not so much desire to attack the sultan
as to strike at European peace.

Landlord Pratt received message on
Saturday that DR., Philip Fuller died in st.
Johns hospital, Brooklyn, that morning,
and that his burial would take place in
Hartland this state, in the family lot on
Monday. DR.. Fuller came here in the
early summer of '95, his last place of prac-
tice being Green River, where he was To-
Gated some three years. He graduated at
the Burlington medical school 10 or u
years ago. He had received the advant-
ages of superior medical training with his
father, who was an army surgeon in our
late war, and whose home was in Brook
Ign in recent years.
Dr. Fuller was liked here as a physician
and apparently nothing but the morphine
habit stood in the way of his success He
was uncommonly well read in his profess
sion, and was very interesting talker not
onl y on that but on general subjects. He
had cultivated literary taste and his man
ners were polished. He left here under
great depression of spirit Dec. 81, and
many sympathized with him in his strug-
gle to abandon the habit that threatened
his entire wreck. He soon went to hos
pital for treatment which did not help him
to rally as at other times, and at last he
sank rapidly.
