Murder Case.

Detective Trails Suspect in Henry
Murder Case.
Two months have passed since Hen
ry was plunged into ntense excite
ment and indignation because of the
murder of F. NJ. Brown, a highly re-
spected citizen. As several days had
passed before the murdered man was
found 1t was believed that all trace.
of the murder and robbery had been
lost. The coroner's inquest brought
out out few. if am. facts or circum-
stances which might lead to the arrest
of any suspected parties. But after
the funeral was held and attended by
many of the leading citizens of the
community the Investigation began to
take place. The result was that Will
lam Baxter, superintendent of the
Baxter detective agency, of M~inneapo-
lis, has Ef&l o. the ground for the
past few weeks making a personal in
vestigation.
To the average mind the murder
was one of the darkest and most das-
tardly ever committed in South Da-
kcta, and there was apparently no
hope of running down the guilty par
ty, who murdered for boarded treas
ure.
While Detective Baxter is in pos
l - ~ - liil'i IN
no withholds from it is
known hat he has very important
evidence and is weaving a network of
circumstances around the suspected
party. --
1t is in a roundabout way, it is
Known that Detective Baxter has dis
covered and photographed running
footprints leading from the cabin of
the murdered ma and has also pho
tographed footprints of the suspected
party which correspond; there is pos
tive proof that Brown was first shot
II then s~trangled; there is evidence
proving where the suspected party
purchased a 32-caliber gun and am
munition; there is evidence placing
the crime absolutely within a certain
hour; there is evidence showing h a
certain time at a certain place, and
failed to keep the appointment; the
detective now has money in his pos
session which was known to have
been in the hands of Brown: he also
has videnc which shows" that Brown
marked his money, and how; he also
has some of the marked money which
party. a
The above. there is reason to be-
lieve, is only a little of the network
of testimony which is shaping itself
around the supposed guilty man and
will make it impossible for him to es-
| cape.

Special Rates to Merchants Meetings
Withdrawn.
The spring and fall merchants
meetings. which have for some years
past beer the means of bringing thou
sands OF business men from smaller
cities to Chicago and st. Louis. will
be omitted this year. The executive
committee Of the Western Passenger
association has refused to grant the
desired fare and a half rate In spite
OF the pleas Of representatives of the
Chicago commercial and the st. Louis
merchants associations.
The reason given for the refusal is
that the 2-cent fare laws OF Illinois.
Missouri and other western states have
SO reduced passenger earnings that it
is no longer feasible to grant special
rates. Last spring. when the railroads
regularly charged 3 cents per mile, a
rate OF far and one-ffth was garnted.
and 9,454 retailers from Chicago's
trade territory came to that city. Last
autumn no reductions in fare were
granted and only 500 retailers came
into the meeting.
The falling off at st. Louis vas less,
as the Southwestern Passenger assoc
citation has continued to grant the re-
duced rates.

Night riders, 100 strong, swooped
down on Russellvilie. Logan county,
KY, early Friday morning and, after
overpowering three policemen, dyna-
mited and burned two independent to-
bacco concerns in the city and several
other establishmen m and then rode
away. Three men were wounded.
The telephone girls and police were
held prisoners for nearly three hours.

he heard the noise, fastened to the

sound an alarm, but was overpowered
by 0 masked night riders.
Two merchants. j. r. Mclean and
J Henry MoseIey, did not hurry in
to their homes as fast as the night
riders desired and were shot. The
most seriously injured was DR.. c.. M.
Roberts, of Evansville. Ind. a guest
at Forest house, who was wounded
about the head and face by a charge
OF buckshot.

The effect of the receivership for the
Seaboard Air line will have a far

is estimated nearly $25,000,00o is held

holders of both stocks and bonds will

underlying bonds need feel the least

KIN IN GUTTER FIGHT.
CastcIIanc with Brothers Aid Whips
His Cousin.

Count Boni de Castellane, from
whom bis wife. IN was Miss Anna
Gould, of New York, was recently di-
vorced, and Prince Helie de Sagan,
who en- several occasions was reported
to be engaged to Madame Gould, had
a personal encounter Thursday at the
church of st. Pierre de Chalet IN
Paris, while a service to the memory
of the Lady Stanley Errington, a rela-
tive Of both men, who died lately IN
England, was In progress. Beginning
inside the church, where Count Bon
says the prince insuited both him n
the sacred edifice, the encounter was
resumed at the doorway where Count
Boni, followed by his brother, Count
Jean de Castellane, overlook the
prince. Count Boni spat in his cous-
ms face.
Then came the clash of canes and a
rough and tumble fight on the pave
ment, which ended In the gutter,
where the men were finally separated
BY a big butcher. Count Boni at the
moment of Intervention was holding
down the well night insensible prince,
while Jean, according to y witnesses,
was administering to him a severe
kicking. When the police arrived the
butcher was holding the two princi-
pals in the fight, who were covered
with mud. The police invited the two
men to go to the station house, n
this, after some disputing, they agreed
to do. AL! three of them, despatched
with mud, accompanied the police,
and followed by several thousand per-
sons, marched off to the station
where they made explanations

PROSPERITY IN DAKOTA.
People OF State in Excellent f1nailci!
Condition.

Condition.
The fact that the delinquent t&A
lists printed this fall in the newspa-
pers OF the various counties OF the
state were the smallest for years-lf
not the smallest in t.e history or
South Dakota-testifed eloquently to
the excellent financial condition of the
people of the state, but further evil
dence, particularly upon the
condition of the farmers of that por-
ton of the state lying east of the Mis-
souri, river, is given by the record or
farm loans in the region indicated. A
single oar agency of Sioux Falls has
at the phesent time about $2,O0O,0oo
loaned in that part of the state lying
east of the river. The $4,000, 900 rep
rescnts loans to about 1900 farmers
| scattered in all portions of eastern
South Dakota. Upon this vast sum all
the interest has been paid but abont
$500, and this will be adjusted within
| the next few days, or in a week or two
at the most.
Fully 25 per cen of the interest
| due on Jan. l on these loans had been
paid several days before it was due.
and during the month Of December
twenty farmers voluntarily paid the
principal of the sums borrowed, to-
Gether with interest. During October,
November and December the volun-
tary interest and principal paid
amounted to an aggregate Of $122,O0u,
which certainly shows that the farm
ers of South Dakota have ample funds
and are in a more prosperous condi-
ton than ever before.

PLANS FOR WESLEYAN BRANCH.
Methodist School Likely to he Started
in Black Hills.

III kSllck Hills.
In all probability the proposition to
establish the auxiliary school Of Da-
kota Wesleyan university at Hot
Springs will be settled o when the
executive committee of the university
will met to decide on the location
o. the site in Hot Springs. DR.. Mich
olson, president Of the university,
spent the past week in the Hills coun-
try. and met with Rev. Mr.. Dolliver.
superintendent Of missions; E. W.
Martin, of Deadwood. and S. E. Will
son, of Hot Springs. The proposition
is to purchase the buildings and
grounds of the old Black Hills college
at Hot Springs. n conduct the acad-
envy as an auxiliary to the Methodist
institution in Mitchell. Present plans
call for carrying out of a college pre-
psratory course, with courses in mu-
sic, art and business. Hot Springs
has already raised about $4,000 to as
sist in the project. The old college
building is &C by IS feet, three stores
high n cost about 100000, surround
ed by fifteen acres for a campus Til
buildings and grounds are owned by
eastern capitalists, who were COM
PEELED to foreclose a mortgage on the
school when it failed along in the early
COS. The owners are very anxious
to dispose of the structures.
