PRESIDENT SIGNS THEM
Orders Redividing Land Districts in
Minnesota-As to the Ap-
pointm ents.
From The Journal Bureau, Room Is, Post Build
inr washin3ton. e.

From The Journal Bureau Room Is, Post Build
ing, Washington. d
Washington, March 2S.-The president
to-day signed the executive orders re-
dividing land district in Minnesota. The
first order provided for the removal of the
Marshall land office to st. Cloud and the
new boundaries of that district. The sec
ond describes the land which is to be
taken from the Crookston and Duluth dis
tFicts and added to the old portion Of the
| ST. Cloud district to make the new Cass
Lake district and the third directs the
transfer of the office in the st. Cloud dis
/ trict to Cass Lake.
| It is the practice Of the land office to
allow thirty days in which changes may
be made and public notice will be given
of the proposed changes OF boundaries.
| No appointments have yet been an
| nounced, but it is accepted as fact that
| the officers at Duluth, st. Cloud and
Crookston will be reappointed, and that
! the present register, Mr.. Marshall, will
be transferred to Cass Lake, with ]. D.
Jones of Long Prairie as receiver OF that
office. ..s
Some confusion will arise at first be-
cause of the official and probable local
designation of the new districts. Under
the orders the enlarged southern district
will be officially designated as the Mar
| shall district, although the office will be
at st. Cloud. The newly created district
will be officially known as the st. Cloud
district, although the local office will 5be
at Cass Lake.

1ANKE'S SHORT CUT
BY It the State Holds He Saved a
Mile When He Hurried to
New Ulm.
Defense Is Relying on Mrs. Tanke
to Save the Defendant From
IS
@ Conviction.
SpsciaI to The Journal.

SpsciaI to The Journal.
st. James, Mimi, March 2s.--The prin-
cipal witness for the state this forenoon
at the Tanke murder trial was. HI. w.
Daniels, surveyor OF Nicollet county,
whose plats of the country near the Well
ner place were introduced in evidence.
They indicated that the old road, passing
near the Wellner farm and leading to New
Tim, is still passable for foot men. This
route is the one alleged to have been taken
by Tanke on the afternoon he hurried to
the latter place. 1t is about mile short
er than the public highway.
Other witnesses were G. A.. Blomberg,
clerk Of court of Nicollet county, and G.
NJ. Evenson of St. Peter, who corroborated
DR.. Merritt's testimony as to the bullet
wounds. = y'sgs
J. D. Bilingsly, a contractor of St.
Peter, testified as to miniature barn
representing the Wellner barn and in
troduced in evidence.
The testimony yesterday afternoon was
confined to that given by. DR.. G.. f. Mer-
rift coroner Of Nicollet county. sum-
moned to the wellner farm the day fol-
lowing the murder. He corroborated DR..
Stricken, who conducted the post mortem
examination, as to the location and dirac-
ton Of bullet wounds. The witness
stated he found the body of Wellner lying
face downward. the right hand extended
and sclasping a lantern. The nose was
fattened Wellner had few clothes on
and his body was frozen stiff. .
The defense in it's cross examination
gave the first hint: that the line Of de-
Tense to be followed would be in harmony
with Mrs. Tanke's confession, a por-
ttion Of which states that Wellner, then
her husband came towards the barn in
which she was hiding on the night of the
murder, with. a lantern and armed with
q club
The witness when asked If he found
a large stick about four feet long under
the body said he did not. He did not
think that Wellner would have been able
to rise to his feet or knees after receiv-
ing the shot in the back.
