BODY THROWN INTO LAKE
Mysterious Murder Committed In Blue
Earth County,

Mysterious Murder Committed In Blue
Earth County.
That murder was committed and
Isaac E. Wheeler's house in Sterling
township, Blue Earth county, set on
fire to conceal the crime was devel-
oped when his body was taken from
the icy water Of the Maple river, a
mile from his home, by Coroner Ken
nedy of Mankato and his assistants.
An examination of the body solved
the. mystery of the manner of his
death, but gave no clue as to the iden.
tity of the men who struck the fatal
blows. A stab wound was found run
ming entirely through the neck, six
stab wounds were found above the
heart and there were two deep cuts
on each arm between the elbow and
the wrist. n
There were no cuts in either the
outer or under shirts, indicating that
these had been pulled up when the
wounds were inflicted or put on after.
wards. It is apparent that Wheeler
was attacked after he had retired.
perhaps while he was asleep. After
the murderer had done his work he
carried the body nearly mile to the
Maple river and threw it into the wa.
ter. Before or after doing this he set
fire to the house.

Indications That New Bond Issues
Will Be oversubscribed.
Washington, Nov 19.-Treasury Off.
Gals are highly gratified at the large
number of letters and kilograms re.
ceived from all sections commencing
the secretary's action with respect to
the issue of government certificates OF
Indebtedness and Panama bonds.
Many kilograms have been received
applying for participation in the dis
tribution Of. the certificates and ask
ing for details and requirements OF
the bond issue. Both issues, Judging
from present indications, will, it is
said, become very popular and the
subscriptions, in the judgment Of the
officials, will far exceed the total to
be disposed Of. The determination OF
the secretary to receive registered
certificates as basis for circulation
as well as for government deposits is
highly commended and no doubt is
expressed that this additional quality
given to the certificates will greatly
stimulate public demand. New York
city banks have signifled purpose to
increase their present circulation by
over $25,000.0O0 and this fact is most
favOrably commented upon.

Cortelyou's Certificate Plan Will
Attract Money in Hiding.
FlNANCIERS APPROVE IDEA
Believed Secretary's Scheme Will Re-
move stringency and End keces'
sity for Importation Of Gold.

New York, Nov. 18.-The announce
ment Of the plan of President Roose-
welt and Secretary Cortelyou to issue
$50,000,000 in Panama bonds and $780,
100000 in one.year tre&sary certif-
Gates bearing per cent interest was
the chief topic Of discussion in hnan-
cial circles here. The short term GER
tifcates attracted most discussion be-
cause of the comparative novelty of
such an issue in this country.
It is the general opinion that the
two measures, and especially the offer
of the certificates, will draw much
money from small boards, as was the
case with the popular loan of 1896. 1t
is believed that these certificates
would be acceptable at the Bank of
France If it should be necessary to
obtain more gold there, according to
= the plans which were under discussion
last week. Some bankers here be-
lieve, however, that the issue OF the
certificates will make it unnecessary
to obtain more gold. II the premium
on currency is once broken it will
change conditions Of foreign exchange
SO that the profit on gold imports will
be reduced or wiped out. Some bank
ers believe that this will not be an un.
mixed evil, because. we already have
drawn so much gold from Europe.
They fear that this gold will be taken
back soon under the pressure Of high
discount rates and the monetary
stringency at London, Paris and Der:
lin and they believe that the Amer
lean market should cease to disturb
European markets when it is found
that further imports of gold are not
required to maintain our position.

MT BY STREET CAR.
St. Paul Patrol Wagon Wrecked
and Two Men Fatally Hurt.
BODY THROWN INTO A LAKE
Blue Earth County Man Murdered and
His House Destroyed by Fire to
Cover the Crime.

Patrolmen James H. Holland and
Andrew S. Hervin of the Rondo po-
lice station at st. Paul were probably
fatally hurt in a collision with an in
terurban car while in the patrol
wagon.
Holland Is cut about the head and
face and has seven ribs broken. He is
said to have received also internal in
juries. His recovery is very doubt
full. Hervin is cut about the head,
his right ankle is fractured, his nose
is broken and he suffers from hemor-
rhage that indicates he received Sc
rious internal injuries. He Is uncon-
scious.
The patrol wagon had been sent to
Dale street and University avenue,
where two men had been arrested on
charge of drunkenness. Holland
was driving the team and Hervin was
in the patrol wagon acting as conduc'
tor. The wagon had got onto the car
tracks at Western and University
when an eastbound street car struck 1t
in the center with great force. Hol-
land and Hervin were hurled In diff.
ferent directions and fell unconscious
on the pavement. Citizens picked up
the policemen and carried them to
places of safety.
A small panic started in the car.
The glass of the vestibule fell about
the head Of the bewildered motorman.
The passengers became frightened and
without waiting for explanations
started to crowd over the rear gates
to get into the street. Many were
bruised and shocked, but none serious.

GUILTY. FOR BLUNT |COL. ROY HOFFMAN.
Defense Rested after Government
Had Finished its Side
the Case

James Blunt was convicted, in the
federal court at Nowata yesterday on
charge Of carnal knowledge. His
sentence had not beeng given this morn
ing but the circumstances indicate
that he will get heavy sentence.
About a year ago the little girl in
the case only II or l3 years old gave
birth to child, which lived only
about fifteen days. Blunt was arrest
ed and gave bond for his appearance.
A remarkable incident Of the trial
was the fact that the defense rested
after the government had finished its
side of the case. ]. Warren Reed,
who was in charge Of the defense was
interrupted in making his statement
of the case to the jury, and after a
consultation with his clients and the
Judge, w. A. Chase of Nowata was
called to assist in the defense. The
government made strong case against
the defendant, and at the conclusion
the attorneys for the defense announc-
ed that they would not introduce a
single witness. The jury promptly re-
turned the verdict for conviction.

AS matter OF right we are entitled
to the sum which the government has
realized from sales of our public lands,
amounting TO nearly 100000, besides
in addition we should have extended
the substantial favor with which
other states have been regarded, for

Free rural mail delivery should be
extended until the service reaches

There should be a constitutional
amendment providing for the election

state should nominate its senators by
the primary system. This will bring

1t is the right of every man to buy
in the cheapest market and sell in
the dearest. Our tariff law Is so
framed as TO force the opposite for
result, and is directly responsible for
such monster trusts as in the United
States Steel corporation, whose swollen
dividend no one n defend as the
legitimate result Of its economics.
Tariff schedules should be readjusted

tax would fall lightly or not at all up

responsibility which a superior should
exercise toward an inferior race; clearly
understanding that social equality is
impossible. Separate schools, coaches
and waiting rooms must be provided,
and will be as soon as our people get
away from federal interference with
our affairs and are accorded full self
government.
