DOLSON IS SkFE.

Mankato Free Press: Mont B.
Dolson is still among the living. He
was not the victim of foul play.
neither has he left the country.

the recent visit of Sheriff Gerlich to
New Ulm was for the purpose of en-
forcing the collection of the balance
due to Geo. w. Monks on his horses.
Mrs. Dolson, who resides at No.
61O South Fourth street, received a
letter Friday evening from her hus-
band, sent from New Ulm and dated
Thursday. 1t is as follows:
Dear wife-I am at New U m at
work on the railroad. I will be at

The letter also contains few lines
in regard to the efforts of the officers
to locate him that lead to the belief
that he does not know on what kind
of mission they went.

Safe Blowers Secured $500.

They Held Up a Waterman at North

The post-office at North Easton, Me-, was
entered by burglars early Saturday morn
ing, who blew open the safe and stole $500
in cash and large number of postage
stamps. The work evidently was done by
experienced men, for the safe door was
blown off at the first attempt and with COM
paratively little noise Daniel Creeden,
night Waterman, was held up about
o'clock on the street near the post Office by
four men, who locked him into coal bin
in the rear of the building, while they loot
ed the safe. After the robbery they i'm
prisoned him in an empty freight car,
where he had to remain until his cries for
help attracted the attention of some train
men later in the morning. 1t was found
that the safe had been neatly drilled and
everything of value in it had been taken
by the robbers. No trace was found of the
robbers, who probably escaped in team.

Business Not Frightened

Nv the New Combinations zee There
Seems TO BE Room for Great EHPSn-
sion.
r. G. Dunn & Co.'s weekly review of
trade saws Business was not frightened
either by the great capitalization of new
companies or by the wild fluctuations in
Wall street. No matter how much the
stock operations in New York may count,
business elsewhere is large enough to war
rant wonderful expansion of industries.
In no considerable branch has production
diminished but in practically all it has
beenfncreasing during the past week.
The swarm of new combinations really
produces less influence than might have
been expected. Most people are aware
that, in spite of all assertions, none of them
has an actual monopoly of anything, and
all have to sustain themselves against i'm
portant competition. The multitude of
them now being offered to subscribers
tends at present to weaken all proposals,
and very many corporations have been
formed on paper which have not yet been
completed in cash receipts or payments. 1t
is an open question and for months or
years to come must be, how far these great
aggregatons of capital can surpass in
economy and wisdom concerns conducted
by individual owners.

Killed by an Insane Woman.
Worcester Man Pounded Over the Head
with a MaIIet.

Mrs. Thomas Carey, 80, living at 8 Hard
ing street, Worcester, Mass. became vio-
lently insane early Saturday morning and
murdered Patrick Hassett 80, one of her
boarders, by beating him over the head
with a carpenters mallet. There was abso
utely no motive for the crime At an
early hour she and her husband went to
bed. Carey was awakened at 2:15 by
shouts coming from Hassett's room, and on
entering it he found his wife beating Sulli
van, Hassett's roommate, over the head
with an iron bar as he lay in bed. Hassett
had also been struck, but the two men had
not fully walked up and were too confused
to offer resistance. Carey took the weapon
away from her and led her back to bed
Sullivan, bruised and bleeding, dressed
himself and ran to the police station, where
he told his story and was sent to the city
hospital Officers were sent to the Carey
tenement, but Mrs. Carey was reported
quiet Early in the morning, however,
when her husband, who watched her
through the night, was out, she attacked
Hassett with a mallet while he was wash
ing himself and inflicted injuries from
which he died.
