GIRLS SKELETON IN A WELL.


PANA. H., Nov. 25.-Much excitement
was occasioned in this vicinity to-day by
a report that the skeleton of young girl,
presumably twelve or thirteen years of
age. had been found in a well the Brunot
farm, four miles north Of here. In April
OF last year the dead body of Jane Brunot
was found in this same well. Mrs. Bru-
not was murdered by two OF her nephews,
who now serving life sentences in the
Chester penitentiary. To-day the work OF
cleaning out the well was commenced and
at the bottom was found the almost per-
feet SHELTON of a young girl. A bracelet
badly watersoaked was found, as was also
comb and a key. The deepest mystery
surrounds the gruesome find. but ii is be-
lieved the two young men now serving life
sentences may be able TO throw some light
or the case and an effort will be made
to have them confess.
1t is believed the skeleton found is that
of a young girl who disappeared from her
home in Indiana two years ago, during the
visit Of Mrs. Brunot's two nephews to that
State.

with preceding fiscal years running back
to the beginning of the present form of
government. This table. which shows the
imports and exports and excess OF imports
or exports in each year from 1870 to 1900,
is too long TO reproduce in full, but 1t
has been further condensed by the bureau
into a table showing the imports and ex-
ports in ten-year periods from 1870 to 1900,
with the excess of imports or exports in
each decennial period. This table is in
teresting not alone in its presentation of
the import and export record, but especial
ly in it's showing relative TO the excess of
imports exports during the 10 years
under consideration. 1t will be seen by an
examination of the final column of the
table, which is presented below, that i'm
ports exceeded exports almost continuously
prior to the decade 1S71-1Ss0, and that since
that time exports have almost continuously
exceeded imports, but that the excess of
exports over imports in the decade just
ending, 1S91-19O0, is extremely large as COM
pared with any preceding decade, while,
as already shown, the excess of exports
over imports in the single year 1900 will also
be greater than in any preceding year in
our history.

United States by decennial periods follows:

Frank III. Hamilton, a Minneapolis
Sporting Reporter, Charged with
killing Leonard Day.
LATTER WAS A SOCIETY MAN
STABBED TO DEATH IN THE WEST
HOTEL BILLIARD ROOM.
Others Present at Time of the Trag-
edy, but None Saw the Fatal
Blow Struck.

MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, Nov. 25-Frank
II. Hamilton. Minneapolis newspaper
man, is prisoner at the central police sta
ton with the charge Of murder against
him the result of the stabbing to death
of Leonard Day, young millionaire So
ciety man of this city, at the West Hotel
early this morning. Hamilton. who has
been in the custody of detectives since the
tragedy, was not formally placed under
arrest until late this Afternoon. when the
coroners jury returned verdict holding
him responsible for the death of young
Day.
The tragedy took place in the billiard
room of the West Hotel at o'clock in the
morning after a quarrel over a woman,
participated in by Hamilton, Day and a
number of other prominent men. All had
been drinking to a considerable extent.
During the fight Fred George. society
leader, was badly cut in the right hand.
George and Day were, I'm company with
c. S. Force, another society notable, play
ing pool when Hamilton and few Of his
friends entered Hamilton and Day began
quarreling. An effort was made to separate
them by several of the bystanders, and for
a few moments quiet was restored. Then
the trouble broke out anew and ended only
when Day lay dying the floor. Hamil-
ton, with whom he had been fighting, was
the first to bend over him and offer aid.
but it was too late, for in five minutes the
injured man was dead. The men who had
taken any hand in the ARRAY at once left
the place, but were later found by the po-
lice, who took charge of the case.
There was a long cut on the top Of the
badly bruised and knife thrust on the left
side of the neck had severed the subclavi-
Gle artery. The knife which inflicted the
wound is an old one OF the 1T. X. L." pat
tern. The smaller blade is broken, but it
is apparent that the longer one, long
and sharp piece of steel, was the one used
Il is partly covered with blood, although
appearances indicate that most Of 1t had
been wiped off. peculiar fact is that the
blade was closed when it was found on the
right side OF the PROSTATE form.
Coroner Nelson. at the request of friends
of the prisoner and of the dead man, held
an inquest this afternoon. when all of the
witnesses of the tragedy testified. None
saw the fatal blow struck, but all agreed
that Hamilton was the only man with
whom Day had been lighting.
Leonard Day was twenty-five years of
age. He lad lived for many years in the
city. His father died six years ago. and.
with his mother. he was living at the West
Hotel. He was well known in society cir
cles, while among his companions he was
known as a good fellow" and one of the
liveliest young men in the city.
Frank II. Hamilton is comparatively
stranger in Minneapolis. He came to this
city last spring and has since been en-
ployed as sporting reporter on one of the
local papers. He has a wealthy uncle in
New York. Among the upper set Hamilton
is also well known.
