(From a Staft Correspondent.) DES MOINES, Aug. 24.-—(Special.)—Gov- ernor Cummins has returned from an out- ing at the lakes In northern Iowa and is being urged to offer a reward for the arrest of persons connected with the Tuman mur- der In Muscatine county. The is ‘eat deal of a tention in eastern lowa. Mr. and Mrs. Jesse Tuman were murdered at their home |in the country, about six miles from Musca- |tine, and it is now belleved the motive was robbery. Tuman and his wife lived in a lonely cabin by the riverside and when the bodles were found there was nothing In the cabin of value, but neighbors knew that they had por ed some valuable pearls only a few days before the murder. These pearls were worth not less than $1,000, anl they cannot now be accounted {for. A number of different persons have been arrested, but it Is belleved the right one has not been found. It was known that Tuman had planned to sell the pearis and go to Nebraska and buy a farm, but it is not known that he did sell them. A man named Dan Williams who lived near and has not been seen since is strongly suspected of the murder. The governor will probably offer a reward unless sometHing turns up new in the case in a few days Democratic Convention Called.

MONEY, BUT NO BORROWERS South Dakota School Funds Idle on Aceount of Slack De. mand, PIERRE, 8. D, Aug. 24.—(Speclal.)— Commissioner Eastman of the department of school and public lands, in his letter of transmittal in his report to the governor, gives the total of the state school fund at the present time to be $4,084,660.59. This has been recelved from. the following sources: From 5 per cent of sales of gov- ernment lands in the state, $50,887.6 In on sales of state school lands, 779.31; deferred payments on sales of st school lands, $1,842,899.65. Of this amount over $500,000 s at present on band and drawing no income for the schools from in- abllity of the office to secure borrowers at the minimum rate of interest allowed to be accepted on this fund. Since the beginning of statehood the de- partment has distributed to the schools of the state the sum of $2,014,258.10 as the In- come which has been derived trom the in- terest on momey from sales and on leases of unsold lands. The total common school land grants to the state amount to 2,150,480 acres, of which 276,486 acres have been sold. The leases for the present year amounted to 1,126,670 acres, leaving nearly 750,000 acres of such lands which are bringing no revenue to the school fund. A large amount of this is in that por- tion of the state west of the Missourl river, and it lles unleased on account of the free range law which is operative in that por- tion of the state. The commissioner recom- mends the repeal of this law, which will cause a demand for the state lands in that section. The average price at which the school lands of the state have been sold is $14.60. per acre. N st Southern Cattle for Northwest. STURGIS, 8.

Atter today the Burlington railroad trains will run into the Union depot in Des Motnes, instead of into the depot long used by the company. The old depot is a small one, located far below the tracks of other lines and immediately adjacent to what is known as the “Whitechapel district,” where most of the vice of the town is herded to- gether. The Burlington has now entered into a contract to use the Unlon depot and trains from both its lines, the Albla division and the Keokuk & Western, will go to the Union, five trains & day each way.

Porter of Waverly, who was found dead in a Des Moines hotel some time ago, have agreed to refuse to pay the insurance on the ground of suicide and etand trial to test the matter.

Nothing definite is known on the Isthmus of the situation of General Morales Bert! at Agua Dulce, but many persons belleve that the gemeral after withstanding a slege of several days, during which his forces were subjected, chiefly at night, to a severe ar- artiflery fire from the insurgents, perceived the hopelessness of recelving reinforce- ments and supplies from Panama and was forced to surrender the troops of his com- mand to the insurgests. The Insurgent fortes in the Agua Dulce district are sald to number between 2,000 and 3,000. Assoclated with General Bertl in the defense of Agua Dulce was General Castro, who galned notoriety at the previous battle of Agua Dulce. Herrera Has Coloasal Task. It the reported surrender of the govern- ment forces at Agua Dulce is true, the insurgent general, Herrera, is confronted by a big problem to provide food and shel- ter for and to control this large and hos- tile element. Owing to the fact that the government iine of communication between Panama and Agua Dulce is broken but lit- tle news reaches Panama from the seat of war, although the contending forces are two days' mar o that. p Rumors are current that several ments of insurgents have been seen at various stations on the rallroad line be- tween Colon and Panama, and attack at either end of the line is expected, in some quarters, to occur at any time. Because of the presence of the insurgents on the railway, the government is anxious to ob-. s soon as possible. to be brewing in the interior, and owing to the refusal of the steamship companies to carry troops, the bringliig” of reinforcements is no easy matter. Pinzon Useless. The government's vessel, General Pin- zon, arrived at Cartagena a week ago from Colon. It is now sald to be impos- sible for General Pinzon to again go to gea in its present condition. Important parts of its machinery have been com- pletely ruined. Pinzon was formerly the American yacht Namouna. It was bought by the Colombian government and entered its service last summer. * Government officials in the isthmus sert that the newly acquired government crulser Cartagena will shortly bring troops to the fsthmus. In other quarters it is sald Cartagena is not at Savani]la, but bas gone to Santa Marta, whence it will proceed to Trinidad, in connection with the detentlon there of Libertador, which has been in the service of the Matoso revolution against President Castro of Venezuela. The Colombian government = recognizes the revolutionary situation to be serious. Many persons question the ability of the insurgents to hold Colon if they attack and capture that port, owing to the fact that they possess mo gunboats on the At- lantic side. The government is endeavor- ing -to purchase avother war vessel in the United States for use on the Pacific coast. There is at present no foreign man- of-war at Colon.

Government Holds Emigrant from Her Betrothed H After working four years for enough money o' send back home in Italy and get ' the girl Yo whom he was engaged, reports the New York Post, Lulgl Burglo now finds that be has got to g0 to court and fight the United States government for permission for her to land. Burglo eent the girl enough money for | Ler to buy her wedding finery and a sec- | erd-class cabin ticket to New York. But the girl determined to sacrifice a few things and .took steerage. Here is where their troubles began. | On arrival at Ellis island in July 'Marta was held up by the doptors on the regis- | try line and sent to the hospital for ob- servation, owing ‘.t eye trouble, - which eventually developed into trachoma, a dis- ease for which hundreds of immigrants are deported eyery year, The edict finally went forth, that the girl must go back. The spe- clal Inquiry board grdered her deported on the doctor’s report, and she was to have returned to Italy om a ship salling this week. But Burglo, spcuring the services of & notary public, drew up a marriage con- tract between himself and the girl, which, when signed and acknowledged, constituted a legal marriage under the laws of New York state.’ Arméd’ with this document, Burgio applied for a writ of habeas corpu for his ‘wife, whom he clalmed was made an American citizen by the marriage, and 1s now being fllegally detained by the im- migration authorities. Washington advised the local authorities that under the United States immigration statute the woman was not within, the country when the marriage was entered into and she must not be al- lowed to land. 1If permission should be granted {n her case, it was sald, it would pave the path for almost unlimited eppor- tunities to evade the immigration law. The question will be argued in the United States court.
