was going home when he saw what he
thought was the figure of a man standing
near the railing of the bridge, about a
block away. Without paying any partic-
ular attention to the figure, Mr.. GrOh sud-
denly heard splash in the river below
as he approached closer to where he
thought he had seen some one standing,
and, on looking up, was astonished, he
says, to find that he was the only one
on the bridge. The police were notified,
but could find nothing to cOrroborate Mr..
Grohs story The authorities investi-
gated the supposed suicide more fully
yesterday, but are able to throw no addi-
tfonal light on the matter.
Mr.. Maloney, who knows Lutter's tenn
permanent and disposition, says he does
not believe the young man would kill
himself by jumping from the bridge. In
fact, he says, he was surprised when he
learned that Lutter was suspected of do
ing the shooting, as his quondam boarder
was generally so quiet and even-tempered.
While the St. Paul police do not absolute
ly discredit Mr. Groh's story, they are
inclined to believe that he was the victim
of an optical delusion and that no one
jumped from the bridge.

has made this place his home at intervals
for number of years with J. c. Morri-
son, who was appointed guardian by
Lutter,s father in Germany who is
wealthy. Until recently he allowed Au-
gust $50 per month, but learning that he
was a spendthrift, refused to aid him
further. August was we'll known in this
village, and had the reputation of being
gentleman of good habits, honest and re-
liable. He hal an intense mania for good
clothes, and was great admirer of the
fair sex. He worked for a time at the
Great Northern hotel, where Jennie Fit
kin was also employed at the time he be-
came much infatuated with her, and their
intimacy was a subject of much comment.
She is the divorced wife of William Tap

Fitkin, with the intention of attending
school at Minneapolis, but it was learned
that he attended school but a few days

Lutter was in love with the woman"

Acquisition by Illinois Central Ne
cessitates Its Construction.
CHICAGO, Nov 22.-It is learned from
reliable authority that arrangements have
practically been completed which will give
the Illinois Central control of the Mime
apOlis & st. Louis. The new acquisition
will afford the Illinois Central an indie
pendent line from ST. Louis to Minneapo-
lis and St. Paul. after building a connect
ing link from Lyle to Albert Lea Mimi.
about fifty miles. 1t also will furnish the
Illinois Central an excellent line between
St. Paul and Minneapolis and Omaha,
using the Minneapolis & st. Louis to Fort
Dodge, To-, and the new Omaha extension
of the Illinois Central thence to Omaha.
In consequence of the new deal the
Rock Island will have to find a new out
let to St. Paul. A conference has been
in progress between the Rock Island and
the Burlington, Cedar Rapids & Northern
officials in this city, for the past two
days, and 1t is stated that an understand
ing has been reached whereby the Bur-
lington, Cedar Rapids & Northern is to
build, at once, new line 12O miles, from
Albert Lea to Minneapolis. This will fur
nish the railway with as good a track
to st. Paul and Minneapolis as it now has
over the Minneapolis & st. Louis
DUBUQUE, To- Nov. 22.-News reached
here tonight confirms the report that the
Illinois Central has secured control of the
Minneapolis & ST Louis road. This will
force the Burlington, Cedar Rapids &,
Northern to build a new line from Albert
Lea to ST. Paul.

BROKER JIM'S TRIAL.
The Alleged. "Fence" Is Now Before
the Court.

Judge Elliott yesterday took up the case
of James Brady, who is sometimes known
as Broker Jim" for the reason that he
is said to have acted as the go-between
for the sale of the articles of jewelry
stolen by Zebulon Skinner from the store
of Eustis Brothers,
Brady was a window washer and all
about man in the employ of the firm, and
at the time Of the arrest he made a con-
fession to Detectives King and Murphy,
which he signed and which bears the sig
nature of two witnesses. Skinner was ar
raigned Monday and he entered a plea of
guilty. 1t is expected that he will be SEN
fenced the last Of the week. and in the
meantime he will be placed on the stand
to testify against Brady.
The most of the time after the jury had
been secured yesterday afternoon was
taken up with the testimony of members
of the firm of Eustis Brothers, and that of
the detectives who made the arrest.
Brady, who is a man Of fifty and who
is hard Of hearing, occupied a seat next
to the witness stand, and his worried,
careworn and "stricken-deer'' appearance
as he leans forward and with an appeal-
ing gaze tries to catch the drift of the
testimony is in marked contrast to the
fresh and dapper front of Skinner The
latter sat by his wife, who possesses more
than the average good looks, and who is
attired in the latest mode.

FRANK DALEY KILLED.
His Remains Found on the Track at
First Avenue North.

First Avenue North.
Frank Daley, a resident of Minneapo-
lis for the past thirty years and manager
of the Northwestern Bottling company,
257 Hennepin avenue, was found dead
about o'clock last evening on the ST.
Louis railroad tracks at the foot of First
avenue north, just below the union depot.
His body lay close beside the track, and
both legs, which had rested across the
rails, were completely severed from the
body, the left leg just below the knee
and the right leg at the ankle. Coroner
Nelson viewed the body and had it re-
moved to the county morgue. The only
other bruise found on the body was a
flesh wound on the left side of the head
near the eye, probably made by a car
truck.
How Daley met his death is mot known.
1t is surmised that he fell from the stone
abutment at the foot Of First avenue
and was stunned by his fall. Several
long freight trains had passed over the
track before the body was found by a
mail clerk named Bowen, who notified
the authorities. Although life was extinct
the body was not yet cold.
Daley was about fifty-seven years of
age and was born at Rochester n. Y. He
served through the Civil war with New
York regiment, spending three and one
half years in the army. Some thirty
years ago he came to Minneapolis. He
engaged in the wholesale Jewelry business
with Robert Reed in the Dolly Warden
block, leaving the firm about ten years
ago and engaging in the saloon business.
Three years ago this summer his partner,
Cullen, died in the bathrooms at the
Guaranty loan. Mr.. Daley resided at 1876
Eighth avenue south, and is survived
by a wife and three daughters, the Oldest
of whom is married. The funeral ar
rangements have not yet been made.

Eel. 279O "A.

Developments yesterday in connection
with the shooting of Mrs. Jennie Fitkin
lead the police to believe that the woman
and A. F. Lutter, whom the police sus-
pect of doing the shooting, lived together
in st. Paul last summer.
A couple, of whom Lutter was one,
bearded at the Great Northern hotel on
Fourth street, near Wabasha, for nearly
a month, where they were supposed to be
man and wife The man always referred
to her as his wife.
Lutter appeared first at the hotel alone
May 10 last, when he secured a room
and informed Proprietor James Maloney
that his wife would join him within a
few days Lutter said his wife was COM
ing from Mason City, 10. June II a wom-
an arrived at the hotel and asked for
Lutter. The woman said she was Mrs.
Lutter, according TO Mr.. Maloney, and
seemed impatient to meet her supposed
husband.
The woman was shown up stairs to the
hotet parlor while a beIlboy went to Lut-
ter's room to notify him that his wife
had come. Whens the couple met in the
parlOr each was affectiOnately ELUSIVE,
embracing each other and exchanging
tender endearments.
While the couple was at the hotel no
suspicion was aroused by their conduct,
and every one believed them legally mar
ried. Lutter was kindly attentive, while
the woman seemed unhappy out of his
presence. Lutter, it is said, was mild
hammered and indulgent toward the wom-
an, but at times the supposed wife eX-
hibited quite fiery temper, and several
scenes took place. Trouble generally
arose when Lutter had been out or
when he declined for some reason or
