Particulars Recei of the Wreck
Near Marine.
Full particulars Of the wreck on the $500
road, near Marine, were received here yester-
day, and it is surprising that the accident was
not attended by the loss of life. After .the
trest.e, which Is from fifty to sixty feet high,
the fourth car broke through. Engineer
George Inman the danger that threatened
him, and with remarkable presence of mind
he opened the safety valve and when the
! engine began going backward he jumped.
The engine and fourteen went into the
| ditch, but the coupling broke, leaving the
| caboose standing on the track. Engineer In
| man was seriously injured. He has number
of bruises on his body, and it is feared he
| is injured internally. tramp, who was in
| an empty car, attracted the attention of the
! train crew by shrieking with all his might,
| and with the aid of an ak, with which the
| car was broken open he was liberated from
his dangerous position. The cars and their
! contents were totally consumed by fire.
| The Clyde cleared yesterday with raft Of
| logs consigned to Zimmerman & Ives, Gut
| tenburg, and the Standard Lumber company,
| Dubuque.
| The Saltwater Cycle club met Monday even
! ing and authorized the executive committee
! to proceed with the building of a path to
! Lake Elmo. The road is in fairly good con-
| dition, but considerable repairing will have
to be done in places. The idea of building a
path to Wildwood this season has been aban-
doned, owing to the heavy expense of the i'm
prOVemeHC.
At today's meeting of the board of prison
| managers a proposition will be made for a
number of convicts to be used in the manu-
facture of binder Irvine from wire grass, SO
common in Minnesota. The projectors Of
the enterprise say that good Irvine can be
!, manufactured from this grass, and are anx-
| ious to try the experiment. -
The annual meeting of the Saltwater COM
pany was held yesterday and the old officers

meeting of citizens was held last evening
for the purpose of devising plans whereby
the Saltwater street railway can again be

This morning will probably see the
state against George A. Durham,
charged with having offered to receive
a brihe of 81 900 from Halvorson K
Richardson for using his influence to
secure a contract for reservoir work
from the city.
When court adjourned last night
nine jurors had been secured, mostly
elderly men. The trial so far has been
rather tedious, the examining OF the
jurors not bringing forth the retort and
dashes of humor which ordinarily char
acterize great trials on public mat
tiers. The favorite jurors are from the
country, where men are not SO interest
ed in city affairs, and where they do
not pay taxes on city property. Many
of the jurors are property owners IN
the city, and to this the defense OBJ
jects very strongly. Few peremptory
challenges have been used, however,
and, as rule, there have been few
contests. A large number Of jurors
were excused because they did not
have second papers, and some because
they had taken out their second pa
pers after they had been summoned as
jurors by the sheriff. The jurors who
are now held in the custody of the
sheriff are:
William Gay, Of Dayton; William
Urquhart, of 1924 Logan avenue; c.

Golden Valley; Harry T. Newhall, Min

Evil Dream.
GRAND FORKS, N. D., May IL
August Normand made "a, signed state
ment last night in the presence Of
George w. Pogue, J. Christensen and
J. A. Pendroy. In part he said:

Der is that it came on me as dream.
I dreamed that there was some ono
after me to do me bodily harm. Then
I got up to escape and went down

back up stairs and went to bed. Then
it came on me worse, and l got up

But They Aren't Likely to Do So
Any More.
1t is not always an easy thing to
work the tricks of the law upon receiv-
ers as upon individuals. This was
shown in the case of the receivership
of the American Savings and Loan
association, for which w. D. Hale is
receiver.
Several parties had actions against
William Gillen, now in the pentiten-
tiary, and Charles Edwards, and in
order to enforce collection funds be-
longing to the defendants in the hands
of Receiver Hale were garnisheed. The
receiver made an application to the
court asking for restraining order,
and Judge Russell made an order which
prevents Sheriff Phillips, w. H. Bah
cock, Mark L. Dougherty and others,
from interfering with any of the funds
in his hands, or issuing or serving any
papers which will have a tendency to
tie up the funds of the defendants in
the hands of the receiver. The order
has been served upon the parties, and
the receiver will remain in undisputed
possession until he gets ready to dis
tribute the money. le11 o.

Story of the 'sBarrOness Turkh eim''
Taken With n Little Salt.
SAN FRANCISCO, May 1.-THE
friends of Jeannine Young, Baroness
Won Turkheim," in this city, have not
vet done anything toward raising suf
ficient funds for her return to San
Francisco, as she requested in her ca
blegram to the chief of police. At
torney Hutton and one or two other
people who are sufficiently interested
in her affairs to assist her, if the ne
cessity should arise, are afraid that
the cab4egram to Chief Lees was sent
by Won Arnold, as decoy, in the hope
Of obtaining money with which to con-
time his travels. Mr.. Hutton, there
fore, will await confirma ton of the
news Of the bogus baron's desertien
before he does anything in the matter.
Chief Lees cabled the baroness" last
night to communicate with Mr.. Hutton.
On account Of theireference in the Ca
.blegram to the important papers in1the
Fair case that are said to be in Won
Turkheim's possession, the chief held
a consultation with George A. Knight
attorney for Charles L. Fair with the
object Of ascertaining whether the
woman might have had any incrim-
mating documents. Mr. Knight stated
that. in his opinion, she had nothing
that would be Of importance in the
Craven case, or that could be intro
duced inevidence. Their side of the case
wanted nothing with the woman.

A Big Importing House Goes to the
SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, May 1.-THE
well-established firm of Williams,
Brown & Co., wholesale shippers and
commission merchants, is in financial
difficulties. Its liabilities are said to
be 5000, 900, but it's assets are believed
to be sufficient to meet most of it's
obligations. If the creditors will grant
an extension of time, the firm hopes
to resume business. For the past nine
years the firm has been recognized as
one of the most active houses in the
Australian import trade. In the salmon
canning business they were the hackers
of enterprises of immense proportions.
The direct cause Of the failure is said
to have been the failure of Australian
consignees to meet bills drawn against
them for heavy shipments of grain. A
great deal Of money was lost by the
firm in it's fruit operations in the Fres-
no market and in the Columbia river
salmon canneries, in which they were
interested. The creditors of the firm
are numerous in this city. Among the
Institutions of prominence here, which
are known to have been financially in
terested, are the Bank of California,
the London, Paris and American bank,
the French bank and Croker & WOOL
worth Banking company.

Since Jan. numerous articles of wear
have been stolen from laundry wagons,
while the driver has been delivering
goods in the residence portion Of the
city. Nearly all the larger laundries
have suffered, one from having been
mulcted to the extent of $32. Inspec-
tor Oscar Hicks has been hard at
york on the case, which was very
difficult one to solve, but at last he
believes he has the right woman in
custody, although the real thief, her
son, is not to be found. The only way
the stolen clothes could be traced was
by their marks, which could be identi-
fled when they were sent back to the
laundry to be washed. Mrs. Baughton
is supposed to know who the thief Is,
but She refuses to say a word.

TO THE REFORAIATORY,
Anna Newman is Finally Given a
Sentence.

Anna Newman, who has caused SO
much trouble to the authorities Of the
city and county of late, will pass a
term in the st. Cloud reformatory.
After her failure to secure an order of
the court adjudging her insane, she
changed her mind again, and resolved
to plead guilty. Attorney Donaghue
had charge of the affair, and he man
aged to elude publicity for a time It
was Monday evening when she was
brought before Judge Simpson and
pleaded, receiving her sentence in due
form.
The prisoner asked to have time to
look up certain Of her personal proper
ty before she went to her new home,
and the court allowed her that time,
SO yesterday morning in company with
Tailor Duffield and Matron WOODBURY.,
the prisoner went on a tour of collec-
ton. At the Commercial hotel, where
scme Of her property was supposed to
be, according to her story, it was not
to be found, and finally she asked for
her dog, pet which she had raised
on cake crumbs. She said Druggist
Rose, on Central avenue, had it, but a
visit to that place did not bring it to
light. Miss Newman was quite vicious,
and used unladylike epithets to her
guides. She was brought back to the
JAIL and will be taken to the reforma-
tory today.

Vaal Committee.
LONDON, May 1.-THE parliamenta.
ry committee, appointed to inquire into
the Transvaal raid, today continued
the examination Of the duke Of Aber-
corn, chairman Of the Chartered Com
pany of British South Africa. In re-
futing the suggestion Of Henry La
bouchere, one Of the members Of the
committee, that the raid was engi-
neered for stock jobbing purposes, the
witness said he had neither bought moi
sold a single share Of the company's
stock during the last six months OF
1885,
The next witness was the duke OF
Fife, son-in-law of the prince Of Wales
The duke said he had no knowledg:
whatever that the raid was to occur
nor had he any suspicion that the
chartered company's troops might be
used anyway in connection with the
troubles at johannesburg or elsewhere
in the Transvaal The witness admit
ted that he had sold 1000 shares OF
the company's stock during the autumn
of 1895. The price was then about six
pounds, but he failed to see what that
had to do with the raid. II state
here on OATH" he added, that I knew
nothing Of the raid, nor had the faint
est suspicion that any interference in
templated by anybody connected with
the chartered company"
"Mr. Rhodes did not disclose to me
his connection with the revolutionary
affairs at johannesburg. I have great
regard for Mr. Rhodes, but, if pressed,
l am perfectly prepared to say that
Mr.. Rhodes deceived me. am sorry to
have to say so, but 1 have no doubt
Mr.. Rhodes will himself admit it."
When asked if his sale of stocks had
anything to do with fears of disturb
ances in the Transyaal, he said: Ger
tainly not, l repudiate the idea with
Indignation" % - -
Lord Clifford explained that the en-
rollment Of Rhodesia horse and the
importation of arms was not connected
with the Transvaal." I had no sus-
picion that Mr.. Rhodes was financing a
revolution until after the raid
Sir Horace Farquhar, Bart, direc-
tor of the British South Africa COM
pany, and member of parliament for
West Marylebone, testified that he
sold 500 shares of the companies stock
late in 1885, but said that the raid could
not be connected with the market, be-
cause the directors were absolutely
ignorant of it. Mr.. Cawstone, another
director, admitted having sold 5000
shares Of the company's stock at the
end of 1895, but asserted that this was
AN ordinary commercial transaction.
