Che Herald. BY E. C, KILEY. GRAND RAPIDS. - MINNESOTA ‘A St. Paul girl has inherited $3,000, 000, and Minneapolis is looking to one of its young men to see that it doesn’t get any the worst of the deal. It is rather hard on the czar that, after having escaped: nibkilistie dyna- mite, he should be obliged’ to succumb to French cookery. In Paris they have a bicycle sale mar ket ,carried on after the system of a horse mart, and it is patronized far more extensively than the horse auc: tions. Well, why not? The war department has put in dove- eotes and it may not be a great while before there will be a demand for the government to maintain a stock of rabbits with well developed left hind feet. Fabrics coated with finely-powdered glass are now offered in the London market as an improvement upon those treated with India rubber for the man- ufacture of waterproof clothing. Nature is painting things red just now in the suburban woods. The more ideal touches will come in later. To watch the development of the picture from day to day is almost as fascinat- ing as studying politics. The German newspapers,in speaking of the emperor have to approach this subject in something of the same spirit as that of the society writers with whom all brides are “beautiful and ac- compi-shed.” If the seven-year-old boy murderer looks anything like some of the pic- tures of him, he needn’t have fired off a gun in order to have committed a great crime. His smile could have counted its victims by scores. So Tesla has perfected his oscillators. They may not revolutionize our pres- ent methods of producing electric light, but that they will subserve many a yaluable use no one doubts who knows the brilliant Hungarian and his achieve- ments in science. The man who insists that the next century begins Jan. 1, 1900, and the man who insists that it begins Jan. 1, 1901, each declares that the question at issue {g “very simple.” Perhaps both disputants a¥é@ somewhat simple to lose any sleep over it. Tt is now the French minister to Con- stantinople who has commanded the sultan to stop the present reign of terror or take the consequences. It looks much more like business than anything the English have accomplish- anything the English have yet ac- complished. England may never be permitted to antinople, but holding the Nile and Gibraltar, she is already in possession of the only outlet of the Mediterranean. In the hands of any other nation than England, Constanti- nople does not give access to the open sea. occupy’ Cons By the fastest time ever made be- tween Honolulu and San Francisco the run is five days, eight hours and twen- ty-nine minutes. The transpacific lines must at least knock off that twenty- nine minutes before we consider seri- y the proposition of annexing Ha- waii. An English correspondent in Madrid states that a considerable emigration of people desiring to save their sons from going to Cuba is in progress in Spain, and that, unless checked, it will assume dangerous proportions.

He may now be said to rank with Sir Joseph Porter, K. C. B., of Gilbertian fame. The There is now an opportunity for a great statesman in Europe. If some sovereign or prime minister should arise of a towering personality, who could influence the great powers of Europe to throw off their petty jeal- ousies long enough to bring the sultan of Turkey to his senses, he would do an epochal work and make his name immortal in history. Orders have been given by the navy department to hasten the completion of the ‘monitor Puritan, and get her ready for sea, if possible, by Novem- ber 1. The Puritan is one of the most powerful double-turreted monitors in the world. She has been under con- struction for years, her plans being changed from time to time to keep her up to modern ideas. Does the order to get her ready for sea mean increased activity in Cuban or in Turkish wa- ters? SHOT BY ROBBERS BANK ROBBERY AND MURDER A‘ SHERBURN, MINN. George Thorburn, the Assistant Cashier, and Olaf J. Oestern of Luverne, Traveling Collector of the Wood Harvester Company, Are Murdered by Two Unknown Men, Who Secure From $1,000 to $2,000, and Make Their Escape on Bicycles, Sherburn, Minn., Oct. 9.—Yesterday afternoon two strange men entered the Bank of Sherburn and without any warning shot down in cold blood George Thorburn, assistant cashier of the bank, and Olof J. Oestern of Lu- verne, Minn., traveling collector for the Walter A. Wood Harvester com- pany. Mrs. George R. Browning and Mrs. William Masters were eye-wit- nesses of the tragedy. Mrs. Browning tells the following: “Il was on the sidewalk opposite the bank and saw two young men about twenty-five years of age walk briskly across the street and enter the Bank of Sherburn, which is on the west side of the street. I was standing where I could see through the front window to the back window. I heard two shots in quick succession, and saw the flash of the revolvers, and saw one man fall at the same time. The cur- n on the bank door was suddenly drawn down. 1 saw a man leap through the paying window over the counter and in an instant saw the back window raised and two men jump out the back window. They cut the screen that was on the out- side and dropped the knife used to cut it.” Escaped on Bicycles. Mrs. Browning at once gave the alarm. Mrs. William Masters corrob- orates the story. The robbers, after securing the cash and leaving the building, mounted bicycles and went west, then northwest from town. O. P. Empey and Max Lacobs were the first to reach the bank, and found Oestern dead. Thorburn was. still breathing but past help. Thorburn was shot just back of the left ear, the ball just coming to the skih on ‘the fore- head. Oestern was shot just back of the right eye and death was instan- taneous. Doctors Neageli and Harn- den were summoned at once, but could do nothing. As soon as the alarm was given the citizens armed themselves and commenced the pursuit. At this time reports have reached here that one of the men has been traced to near the Iowa line, south of Alpha, Minn. It cannot be ascertained how much money the robbers secured, but it is estimated at between $1,000 and $2,000. Over $2,000 in gold that was in the till was not touched, together with some silver. The robbers dropped $2,000 in getting out of the window. Louis Kohler, who was loading grain just back of the bank, saw the men get out of the window, one with a re- volver in his hand. He shook the gun at Kohler and told him to keep still. He was too frightened to do anything. TWO MORE Ki~.ED. One of the Robbers gnd a Marshal Are Dead, Elmore, Minn, Qct. 14, — Sensation follows sensation {n the now famous Sherburtie double murder end bank robbery. The cruel killing of Cashier George B. Thorburn and Collector Olaf J. Oestern is avenged in part, but at the sacrifice of the life of a brave cit- izen of Iowa. At 9:15 one of the men supposed to be implicated in the Sherburne affair was surprised at the home of a farm- er fourteen miles east of Elmore. He opened fire on the posse, killing Will- iam Gallion, marshal of Bancroft. an Iowa town twenty-three miles south of this place. Carrying at least two bul- lets in his body, the murderer, still trusting to his bicycle to escape, was brought down by a bullet from a rifle in the hands of Deputy Sheriff E. E. Ward of Martin county. Wounded unto death, but desperate to the last, the fugitive put the muzzle of a thir- ty-eight-caliber revolver to his head and blew out his brains. The posse that accomplished the capture and death of one of the robbers found in his possession a roll of bank notes es- timated to amount to about $700. It has been placed, securely sealed, in the private bank of C. D. Williams & Co. of this place. The body was brought to Elmore by the posse and an inquest is being conducted. The chase ended right on the border line between Iowa and Minnesota. Marshal Gallion was killed in lowa and the robber in Minnesota. The body of Marshal Gallion was taken to Bancroft. The Dend Robber’s Accomplice is still at large. A telephone message was received to-day from Twin Lakes, a short distance from Albert Lea, stating that he had been traced in some heavy timber rerr Twin lakes, and asking for assistance. Posses were sent out from Blue Earth City and other points, but nothing has been heard from the man-hunt indicative of success. In this vizinity it is be- lieved that the robbers separated a short distance from Sherburne and that the remaining robber abandoned his wheel and is now hiding aiong the west branch of the Des Moines river near Jackson. The mdn-hunt which ended in the death of one of the men, of whose identity as one of the Sher- burne bank robbers there seems lit- tle doubt, was conducted by four men —Deputy Sheriff E. E. Ward of Fair- mont, Martin county; Milo O. Coffey of Sherburne, Martin county; Ls Nuller of Bancroft, Kossuth county, Towa, and Marshal William Gallion, who in the discharge of his duty w shot dead. The history of the chase is one punctured with tireless, unremit- ting energy and peril. All the men named above had been on the trail of the dead robber since Wednesday, when the tragedy at Sherburne was committed. They began separately, following direct clues, and as the scent became warm they came together. In Elmore the scenes almost battled description. ‘The news spread rapidly and the streets were crowded by a motley crowd gathered from miles around. The people stood on the street corners and discussed the fresh tragedy in low tones, except when the thought of the murdered marshal of Bancroft caused their anger to break forth in fresh invective against the Olson’s gallery where he was pnoto- graphed. He made no objection to piece of clay that occupied a rough | pels his picture taken and asked bench tn another poriion of the town. There seems little doubt that the men who committed the crime at Sher- burne are strangers to this part of the state. No one knows or professes to know the name of the dead murderer. There are many conjectures as to their identity. A stranger in the City said that he thought he had seen the dead man as a bicycle racer last summer at Strawberry Point, Iowa. The general opinion here is that they were the men who boarded with the farmer near Heron Lake several days previ- ous to the Sherburne affair and who gave their names as Sair and Pratt. ‘The dead man is supposed to be Pratt, answering closely his description. ROBBER IS CAUGHT. The Other Sherborne Bandit is Now in Custody, Lake Mills, Iowa, Oct. 13.—The sec- ond Sherburne robber and murderer is under arrest here and will be taken to Minnesota to-morrow. He has made a complete confession and says that the dead robber was his brother. He was captured by Marshal Ruby. About 3 o’clock the man came up to the depot, which is about half a mile from the business center, and asked where the town was. Upon being told, he started in that direction, but at the first corner turned and passed up a side street, going east to the Methodist church, when he again turned north and started out of town. In the meantime he passed the res- idence of Marshal Ruby, who spotted his man. Arming himself well, the marshal skipped around a block and came up to his man face to face. The marshal shoved his revolver almost into the fellow’s mouth and told him to throw up his hands. Cool and de- liberately the man looked into the gun and said: “Well, I guess you have got the drop on me,” and complied with the command. The marshal re- lieved him of three revolvers, one a 38-caliber, one a 32-caliber, and the other an old-fashioned Smith & Wes- son four-barreled 22-caliber. He was taken to the mayor's office, where a search was made. His pockets were well filled with cartridges and a small amount of money found. The man told contradicting stories in the after- noon and last evening, but to-day he made a complete confession. Denies the Shooting. The confession was secured by his captor, Marshal Ruby, this morning. In it he denies the killing of either of the men in the Sherburne bank, and says that his brother planned the rob- bery. The confession was not made until the young man had learned that his brother was dead. Marshal Ruby guarded the prisoner in his own home last evening. He was very kind to the young man, treating. him more as a friend than the desperate robber he was supposed to be. After breakfast Marshal Ruby and the prisoner had a long conversation in which the tmar- shal gradually turned the subject to the Sherburné affair. The prisoner re- marked in a seemingly careless way that he understood one of the men had been caught. Marshal Ruby said yes, and in capturing him he was shot and killed, but shot to death another man before going himself. The marshal’s statement half-stunned the prisoner. He bowed his head between his hands and sat thus for several minutes. Finally he looked up and said in low tones: The Robbe's Confession, “I suppose I might ss well make a clean breast of it all. The fellow that was killed was my brother. We robbed the bank at Sherburne, but I am not guilty of killing one of the men. It was agreed that we were not to shoot. My brother came to our home, where I was staying with my parents, and asked me to help him rob the bank. He had the scheme all planned. I consented finally and we went there several days ago, remaining in the neighborhood. We fixed upon Wednes- day as the day and rode into town on our wheels about 9 o’clock in the forenoon. We remained on the out- side streets some time and when the coast was clear went to the bank. There were two men behind the coun- ter. We thought they were both con- nected with the bank. I first accosted the banker to draw his attention, when the cther fellow drew two re- volvers and aiming at the men told them to throw up their hands. Just at that moment he fired, and 1 said: ‘Come, let’s get out of this,” and jumped out of a window. He said ‘at- tend to your business,’ and so I went to the money drawer and took out the money. I thought there was about $700 in the bunch I had. I put it ina sack that we had for that purpose, and then we cut the screen of a back win- dow and left the town on our bicycles. Just as we got on the bicycles I hand- ed the other fellow the money and he put it in his bicycle bag. We sep- arated about two and a half miles out of Sherburne. My brother being the best rider, made south for the state line and I took a southwesterly direc- tion until I got south of Jackson, and then I struck out south along the Des Moines river to Algona. Then I crossed the country around by Britt and Forest City to Lake Mills. 1 had a pretty bard time getting through.” Refuses to Tell His Name. It will be noticed that the prisoner makes use of the term “the other fel- low” when alluding to the man he said was his brother. Marshal Ruby said that he used that expression just as it occurs above and that le also used the words “my brother” where they occur. To a reporter the prison- er refused to make any statement concerning himself or his identity. He also refuses to talk to any one else, and he and the marshal have net al- luded again to the Sherburne affair. The prisoner absolutely refuses to tell any one his right name. After mak- ing the confession to Marshal Ruby the latter asked the prisoner to tell his right name, but he shook his head and said: “I do not wish my folks to know enything about this.. I ’spose I shall plead guilty under an assumed name.” The name he first gave upon being taken into custody was Jim McMullen. He now says that it is a fictitious naine, but will give no other. so that is the name under which he will prob- ably be arraigned. He will be taken to the Blue Earth county jail, located in Blue Earth City. for safe keeping, as it is considered dangerous to lodge him in the county jail at Fairmount, the county seat of Martin county, io which the Sherburn affair occurred. The Prisoner Photog Immediately after the | been identified he was taken to J.C, for a mirror so that he could comb his hair, which he did. The pictures were then taken. He was first photo- graphed while sitting down with his hat removed, again with his hat on, and the third time a full length nega- tive was taken. All day he was un- der Marshal Ruby’s care, without be- ing handcuffed or in any manner re- strained of his liberty, save by the presence of the marshal. Upon going to bed, however, he was handcuffed and chains were paced about his ankles. Marshal Ruby occupied the same room with the prisoner, and, in fact, has kept a personal watch over him ever since his capture. He has been well behaved, has a good educa- tion and talks well on almost any sub- ject. This forenoon he spent reading and playing on an organ in Marsha) Ruby’s parlor, on which instrument he is a good performer. While reading he asked Mrs. Ruby for some books on scientific subjects. A hundred or more people in the im- mediate vicinity drove into town and occupied a portion of the walk in front of Marshal Ruby’s residence in the hope of getting a glimpse of the pris- oner. In this way they were foiled as long as the prisoner was in the house, as the blinds were kept closed. They accomplished their object later, how- ever, when the prisoner was removed to Justice Denison’s office, and again when he was photographed. There was some idle talk of lynch law being exercised in his case, but it soon proved mere gossip. Fairmont, Minn., Oct. 14. — Sheriff Wash Hill of Martin county arrived here at 9:45 with the self-confessed ac- complice of the man who was killed at Elmore while resisting arrest for the double murder and bank robbery at Sherburne. Sheriff Hill was as- sisted by Sheriff William Mitchell of Freeborn county, Sheriff Sandy Mc- Donald of Faribault county and Mar- shal Ruby of Lake Mills, lowa, who captured the young man. ‘rhe sheriffs had intended to take their prisoner to Blue Earth City, but received a mes- sage on the way that the feeling in Sherburne was dying out and that there would be no danger in taking the prisoner to Fairmont, the seat of Mar- tin county, and so the plan was changed. It became quite generally known along the line that the prisoner was en route and the depot platforms were crowded all the way along. No demonstrations were made, however, at any of the stations, the people gen- erally remarking at the prisoner’s youth and commenting upon his ap- pearance. At the Fairmont depot the platform was slightly more crowded than at the other points. The sheriffs had prepared for trouble, although they did not anticipate any, and for precaution the prisoner was removed to the rear coach. Sheriff Hill had tel- ephoned for a closed carriage to be at the station in a position to make the distance short from the rear of the last car to the conveyance. The coach was stopped with the rear steps right opposite the carriage. Sheriff Hill and his deputies, with their prisoner, were in the carriage and being driven rap- idly toward the jail before more than half a dozen people knew that he had left the train. They had expected that the sheriff would get off the middle coach and pass right through the crowd on the platform. No Demonstration was made, however. Sheriff Hill had expected a large crowd from Sher- burne, but was happily disappointed. About fifty men and boys came over. But few farmers visited the city, and there appears to exist no cause for alarm. The people seem to be satis- fied that the remaining alleged rob- ber has been caught and are perfectly willing to let the law take its course, although they assert that had he been caught in the vicinity of Martin and Faribault counties on the night of the killing of Marshal Gallion and the shooting of his alleged accomplice at Elmore, the consequences might have been very serious for the prisoner. Now that the excitement has cooled down the people are becoming milder in their views of the situation. Sheriff Hill is confident that no attempt will be made to lynch the prisoner; but in order to make assurances doubly sure, the sheriff had five or six deputies scattered through the coach on the train from Sherburne. It was intended to have Deputy Sheriff Dunn of Jack- son county. drive the prisoner to Worthington and place him in the jail there in case it was apparent that mischief was intended by the citizens. But there were not more than a dozen strangers in Fairmont when the train eame in and pulled away, and the services of the deputies were not need- ed. The prisoner was guarded by the usual jail force with one extra deputy sheriff on watch. Makes Another Confession. Inside the jail the prisoner was put through a systematic course of cross- questioning. He told his story of the crime exactly as it was given yester- day, aud when being plied with a multitude of questions, admitted that it was himself and companion who set fire to 4 building at Heron Lake with the object of attracting the attention of the bank officials and. drawing them away from the bank by the un- usual occurrence of a fire. “We were successful in getting them out of the bank,” the prisoner said, “and our plan would have succeeded had not the bank officials taken the precaution to first lock up all the funds. We got into the bank all right but got nothing. We made up our minds then that the plan would not work in the future and tackled the Sherburne job, which had been previ- ously planned, but given up because we thought it was too risky... We finally decided to try it, however.” Being asked why he rode boldly through Lake Mills, the prisoner said: “Oh, I had ridden through several places like that and was only stopped twice, and then they asked me if I had ercountered the man for whom they were looking, and did not seem to suspect me. When we separated out of Sherburne it was agreed that wo should meet in Albert Lea on Oct. to divide the money and plan some. thing else.” In regard to himself, his name or place of residence, the prisoner still refuses to make and statement. He said when questioned closely on this point: . “I have a Christian mother and a Christian sister. I will not bring dis- grace upon them if I can help it.” In the train coming here the prison- er and a cowboy just in from Mon- | robberies, some of which she tana recognized each other, the recog- nition being mutual. The cowboy said that he worked on a farm near Water- town, S. D., a year ago with the pris- oner. He could not remember the name beyond the fact that he was Enown as “Jim.” The fictitious name given was “Jim McMullen.” Mason City, Iowa, Oct. 14.—People here have no doubt that the bank rob- ber who did the shooting at Sherburne, Minn., and who shot himself rather than be taken alive clerked in this city all the summer. He bore the name here of Jesse Lake, and that was prob- ably his true name. SALVATIONIST SUICIDES, A Young Woman Takes a Dose of Poison in Butte. Butte, Mont., Oct. 14-*Bertie Tripp, whose right name was supposed to be Helen Forsland, a member of the Sal- vation Army, committed suicide to- day by taking poison. No cause for the act is known. The girl has had a remarkable career. She was about thirty-two years of age and the daugh- ter of a farmer living near Spokane. Years ago she ran away from home and fell in with a gambler and high- wayman, and together they worked and robbed all through the States of Washington, Montana, Idaho, Wyom- ing, Utah and Colorado, the girl hav- ing assumed male attire and passed under the name of Charlie Miller. At off times she acted as bartender and placer miner. Three years ago she became involved in a shooting scrape in Butte through the jealousy of a girl who had been in love with the supposed youth. From Butte she and her partner went to Helena, where they committed numerous highway carried out herself. She held up a merchant and was finally arrested and wrote to her partner, thus betraying him. His arrest also followed. In resisting he shot a policeman. In resisting he shot a policeman. At the trial he testified in favor of his companion, whose sex had been discovered, and took all the blame on himself. He was sent up for forty years. She then went to Port- land and joined the Salvation Army and engaged in army work all over the coast and Western states. MACEO AGAIN DEFEATED. So Say Dispatches from the Weyler Bureau of Informetion, Havana, Oct. 14. — Dispatches re- ceived here to-day from official sources in the Province of Pinar del Rio say that another battle has been fought between the Spaniards and the in- surgents under Antonio Maceo, re- sulting in another victory for the former. Gen. Echague was in com- mand of the government troops and Maceo led the enemy. ‘The fighting took place at San Diego, and the in- surgents are alleged to have sustained enormous loss. The dispatches also say that the loss of the Spanish troops was considerable, that the fighting continues and that no details are at present obtainable. ARBITRATION GOES. Venezuelan Question Will Be Set- tled in That Way. London, Oct. 14. — It is learned that the conference held on Saturday be- tween the marquis of Salisbury, the secretary of state for the colonies, Jo- seph Chamberlain, and the British ambassador at Washington, Sir Julian Pauncefote, was most satisfactory, and it is believed in the highest quar- ters that at least the general princi- ple of arbitration and the settlement of the Venezuelan question will be de- cided upon with the United States be- fore the end of this month. Sir Julian sails for New York on Wednesday with final instructions on the subject. Send for Burglars. Minneapolis, Oct. 14. — For the last four days the Nicollet National bank has not been able to open its big vault wherein are the cash assets of the bank, the money to carry on its rou- tine daily business having to come from other sources controlled by the institution. Locksmiths and safe-lock experts galore have been at work on the new-fangled combinations but all to no purpose. It is thought that one of the automatic bars has fallen out of place, and it may be necessary to adopt very radical measures to gain entrance to the vault. It was said this morning that the vault would have to be cut into. Her Hubby Was There Instead. Washington, Oct. 14. — Gwynn B. Tompkins, a sporting writer and turf- man, who has gained some notoriety by the disappearance of his wife, a writer under the non de plume of Helen Dare, and her subsequent di- vorce, followed by her recent marriage to.a California turfman named Nor- man Brough, was shot and painfully, though not seriously, wounded in West Washington to-day by John Collins, a district government employe. It is said that a note from Tompkins ask- ing Collins’ wife to meet him to-day, fell into the hands of her husband, who met Tompkirs at the appointed hour and used his revolver cn him. For Causing a Prairie Fire. Mahtowa, Minn., Oct. 14. — For set- ting fire in a meadow in dry weather at this place, which resulted, Sept. 28, in the burning of forest and buildings, J. Thompson was tried in a justice court, convicted and sentenced to pay a fine of $70 and costs or be impris- oned seventy-five days in the county jail. Jumped to Her Death, Marshfield, Wis., Oct. 14. — Mrs. John Tuchschuer of Masonville, aged forty-eight, met death suddenly while driving to Marshfield to-day with her son. Whiie going down a hill the neckyoke strap broke, letting the pole drop to the ground. Mrs. Tuchschuer became frightened and jumped out. The wheels passed over her body. Death was instantaneous. The boy remained in the wagon and was unin- jured. Tynan Goes Free. Washington, Oct. 14. — Ambassador Eustis at Paris has cabled Secretary of State Olney that Tynan will be re- leased. He was charged with being the notorious “No. 1” of the Phoenix Park murders and was arrested by the French authorities at Boulogne at the request of the Scotland Yard de- teetives who had been following him through Europe. The attempt to se- cure his extradition has failed. STATE OF OHIO, CITY OF TOLEDO, LUCAS COUNTY, ss. Frank J. Cheney makes oath that he is the senior partner of the firm of F. J.
