President Oakes and Genera} Man- ager Kendrick of the Northern Pacific, who came here partly to arrange for the trans- fer of his office to his successor, were much . affectea by the tragedy. ; Paul Schulze was born in Germany in 1848 and received a collegiate and univer- sity education in his native country. He came to the United Statesin November, 1868, at the age of 20. After ha\'ipg I)eefl engaged in various occupations in Cali- fornia, in November, 1871, he entered the service of the land department of the Oregon and California Railroad in Port- land, Oregon. During a visit in Germany in 1874 he met Henry Villard, who soon after became president of the Oregon and California Railroad, and Mr. Schulze was appointed land agent of that road in July, 1874, which position he held until April, 1882, In August, 1882, he was appointed general land agent of the Northern Pacific and was otherwise connected with various enterprises with Mr. Villard.

SAN LUIS OBISPO, CaL., April 12.—A foul murder came to light this morning with the discovery of the body of Jose Ygnacio Villa, a well-known rancher, hid- den in the tall grass on a vacant lot in this city. He had been killed by a blow on the head from a blunt instrument. Villa, who was of Spanish descent, wasa native of this country and about 55 years of age. He leaves a large family. The Villas were formerly owners of the great Corral de Piedra Rancho, near this city. The inquest is set for to-morrow at 9 o’clock. It issupposed the murderer was PORTLAND LAND CASE An Action Involving the Title to Large : Tracts. SOUTHERN PACIFIC SUED. it Is Sought by the Govern- ment to Recover 200,000 Acres. NOT INCLUDED IN THE GRANT. Overlapping Land Claimed to Have Been lllegally Absorbed by the Road. PORTLAND, Or., April 12.—A case in- volving the title to 200,000 acres of land, situated in Multnomah and Clackamas counties, near this city, will come up in the United States Circuit Court next Tues- day. The case is known as the “Overlap land case,” and is brought by the United States Government against the Southern Pacific Company. In 1873 Congress granted to the Northern Pacific Railroad Company the alternate sections of a tract of land from a point on the great lakes to a point on Puget Sound, twenty miles wide on each side of the road through the States and forty miles wide through the Territory. Provision was made in the same act that if a branch line were built to Portland from a point 300 miles or less east of the western or Puget Sound terminus, another tract forty miles wide should be given ‘along the branch. The Puget Sound terminus is Tacoma and the “point 300 miles or less east” is Wal- lula. Subsequently Congress granted to the Oregon and California road a forty-mile tract from Portland to the California line. As the end of both grants was at Portland, they overlapped in Multnomah and Jlackamas counties, and in the overlap- ping tract are 200,000 acres. The contention of the Government is that the 200,000 acres, having been given to the Northern Pacific in 1873, were not included in the grant to the Oregon and California, which has been absorbed by the Southern Pacific, and that the Northern Pacific’s prior grant excluded the land from the grant to the Oregon and Califor- nia. But the Northern Pacific failed to build from Wallula to Portland and its grant along the Columbia River was for- feited to the Government. As the over- lapping land—the 200,000 acres—was never included in the grantto the Oregon and California, it is claimed that it cannot now be included. SR Trial of Preacher Keed. PORTLAND, Oz., April 12—A number of witnesses were examined in the trial of Preacher J. C. Reed for holding up the st Portland Bank. The principal wit- ness for the State was E. T.

PUZZLES THE OFFICERS. Mystery Surrounds the Pretended Hold- Up Near Mountain Fiew. SAN JOSE, Cav., April 12.—The mystery surrounding the reported hold-up of W. Saunders, near Mountain View, deepens, and officers who have returned from the scene of the operations are not backward in denouncing the hold-up as a pre- arranged job.

Mr. Wagner, in whose barn the robbers are supposed to have left Saunders, or St. Hubert, handcpffed to the manger, says the pretended officers came to his place and asked permission to leave their pris- oner, who, they said, had been arrested on suspicion.

A laborer who was working in the orchard back of the barn says he saw a man running through the orchard, toward the Stevens Creek road, and that at that point he joined two men in a buggy. The officers ave been unable to trace the route taken by the men in the buggy, but it is sup- posed they have gone to San Francisco The whole affair is shrouded in mystery and the officers are at a loss to account for the strange proceeding.

RATHER A NOVEL PLEA, Pardon Asked for a Murderer Because He Is a Keeley Graduate. It Is Claimed That He Was Crazed by the Vigorous Treat- ment. PITTTSBURG, Pa., April 12.—For the first time in the history of the country pardon is to be asked for a murderer on the grounds of insanity caused by the Keeley treatment. = The case is that of Daniel Werling, who murdered his wife here last April. Charles A. O’Brien, his attorney, will go before the Pardon Board on Wednesday. He has affidavits from doctors and the best sanity experts in this part of the State, who say that the Keeley treatment fre- quently produces insanity and sometimes death. They say there are many cases of insan- ity on record caused by the cure. The cause, they say, is the use of atrophia and strychnine, which, under certain condi- tions, have a deleterious effect on the brain and nerves. Werling took two courses of the Keeley treatment inside of six months before he committed the murder. “There are no longer Pyrenees,” Napo- leon asseverated. There would no longer be alum baking powders if consumers gid not extend them patronage. AT LOVE HAD ITS WAY. Sensational Elopement of a Prominent Young Couple. WHEELING, W.

NOTORIETY DURING A STRIKE. — On a Famous Telegram He Bases His Claim for the Noml- nation. WASHINGTON, D. C., April 12.—The latest candidate for the Republican Presi- dential nomination is Senator C. K. Davis of Minnesota, and his Presidential boom is assuming respectable proportions, Repre- sentative Tawney of Minnesota says that if a Western man is chosen, Senator Davis will be urged as the most available and promising candidate, and that Minnesota will send a solid delegation to the conven- tion pledged to support him. Mr. Davis’ candidacy will be interesting to California people, inasmuch as his boom was started, and, in fact, is based on his telegram regarding the great strike of the American Railway Union. While the strike was at its height the Knights of Labor and other industrial organizations appealed to Senator Kyle of South Dakota to introduce a resolution in the Senate fa- vorable to the strikers. The purport of the resolution was a dec- laration that unless transportation of United States mail was obstructed the de- lay of trains by strikers was not an offense against the Federal Government. The leader of the railroad strikers in Minne- sota telegraphed Senator Davis, in the name of railroad employes, urging him to support Senator Kyle’s resolution. Promptly came the Minnesota Senator’s reply, declining to suppors the resolution. Itison this telegram that his friends are basing much of his claim to the nomi- nation. In it the Senator said: “‘You' are rapidly approaching an overt act of levying war against the United States, and you will find a definition of that act in the constitution. I trust that wiser thoughts will gain control. You might as well ask me to vote to dissolve this Government.” This telegram focused the eye of the public upon Mr. Davis at an exciting pe- riod. Senator Davis followed his telegram some time afterward with a speech in the Senate indorsing Cleveland’s action in sending Federal troops to Chicago. The Minnesota Senator is now 57 years old and is a native of New York. He served as a lieutenant in a Wisconsin regi- ment during the war, and began his public career in 1867, when he was elected to the Minnesota Legislature. He was United States District Attorney from 1868 to 1873, and was elected Governor of the State in 1875 and United States Senator in 1887, GROVERS LITTLE. BOOML Secretary Morton Does Some Fine Work in Cleveland’s Interest. Of Course, the “Reformers” Will Agree That a Third Term Is the Preper Thing. WASHINGTON, D. C., April 12.—Secre- tary Morton of the Agricultural Depart- ment recently sent a note of thanks to J. R. Buchanan, general passenger agent of the Fremont, Elkborn and Missouri Val- ley Railroad, stationed in Omaha. Mr. Buchanan responded in another tetter, suggesting that in Mr. Cleveland’s nomi- nation for a third term rests the chief sal- vation of the country from the silver craze. Secretary Morton sent the letter contain- ing this suggestion to John Dewitt Warner of New York, a leading light of the Reform Club. Mr. Morton’s letter to Mr. Warner reads: UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE, ‘WASHINGTON, D. C., March 12, To the Hon. John Dewitt Warner, New York City—MY DEAR MR. WARNER: The inclosed let- ter from J. R. Buchanean, general passenger agent of the Fremont, Eikhorn and Missouri Valley Railroad Company of Omaha, may be of interest to you. Itisinreply to one written him by me, in which I thanked him for his earnest efforts in seeuring the publication of a screed of mine, “A Few Facts in France,” in a great many of the patent-inside newspapers which are circulated out West. My object in sending you this letter of Mr. Buchanan’s is to give you a thorvugh-going business man’s views of the situation. The letter shows how fallacies flourish among the financiers of the ‘West and South. The letter also points out the necessity of immediate coherent and organized action in behalf of sound money. Having read the same (you may copy it if you desire), I wish you would return the same and Iwill write Mr. Buchanan, Possibly our friends of the Reform Club may be benefited by. seeing Mr. Buchan- an’s communication, Very truly yours, J. BTERLING MORTON. The conclusion of Mr. Buchanan’s letter to Secretary Morton is as follows: My judgment, from the present outlook, is that the Eastern conservatives of both parties are likely to unite and possibly renominate Mr, Cleveland, who will carry the East and South. No doubt exists of his able honest conservatism, and the South wiil vote for him ‘because they could never vote otherwise than the Democratic ticker, thus' insuring a vote which would elect. The West willundoubtedly support the Populists, or free-silverites, unless there is a grewtchange. If thisisnot done I feel the election will be thrown into the House as aresultof tnree tickets heing in the field. in which case the balance of sower would be with the free-silver interest. 1 believe if a vote ‘were taken to-day on the naked question of a 16 to 1 silver platform Nebraska would give it & majority of 50,000, or near it. Thess suggestions are for what information you may be able to glean from them. I believe the situation is critical and of importance. Yours truly. J. B. BUCHANAN, AR et CURES CONSUMPTION. Report of @ Consul on the Discovery of an American Doctor. 3 WASHINGTON, D. C., April12.—United States Consul-General Dekay at Berlin be- lieves an American physician has discov- ered the means of curing consumption, lupus and, perhaps, cancer. In his report to the State Department he says the com- ing medical congress is likely to give no little attention to the discovery made by Dr. Louis Waldstein, anative of New York, announced in the German medical papers as extraordinary—the action of minute in- jections of pilosarpine, a crystallized ex- Is at hand. This fact means much to the honest housewife. It means many hours of toil. It means that large supplies of strength will be demanded. And yet this is a time when the appe- tite is poor, and women are likely to be nervous, sleepless, weak gnd tired, because the blood is impure. Let the impurities be driven out and the blood enriched and invigorated and made to flow in a life-giving current to every part of the body. Then there will be health, strength and A Cood Appetite. The only true blood purifier promi- nently before the people today is Hood’s Sarsaparilla; and it is the most prominent because it is the best. Merit will win, and merit has not only placed Hood’s Sarsaparilla at the head of all medicines, but has practically given it, as a blood purifier, posses- sion of the whole field.

I was brought to this condition by continually running down in health for twelve years, rheumatism and neuralgia causing me No End of Suffering.

This, in a sense, completes the celebrated “Heilserum,” act- ing fayorably on patients whom serum does not cure. The key to the discovery is this: By suc- cessive injections of minute doses of pilo- sarpine into the veins he arrives at the gradual stimulation of the lymphatic sys- tem. That system increases the white corpuscles in the blood, which, in some way not agreed upon, certainly overcome and render harmless those poisonous par- ticlesin the blood that produce the dis- ease. The discoverer strongly advises the phy- sicians to use pilosarpine in the early stages of consumption, and, indeed, in all diseases involving the lymphatic system. He has satisfied himself that it forms a trustworthy test for the presence of tuber- culosis in man and animal. The report closes with the statement of a case of lupus of twenty-two years’ duration, regarded as incurable, which was relieved immediately after the first injection and is now almost healed.

Cleveland’s Letters and Speeches the Keynote to the " Movement. WASHINGTON, D. C., April 12—It is now certain that several members of the administration will take a prominent part in the political campaign over the money question that will be carried on in different States. The invitation of the Chicago business men to President Cleveland asking him to make an address in that city on the sub- ject of the currency has been followed by intimations from other places that the members of the Cabinet were wanted to make similar addresses in order that the position of the administration may be placed upon the country in a most forcible way. The President hasnot yet answered the Chicago invitation, but if he finds it impossible to go it is expected that he will decline in a letter expressing clearly his views on the subject of money. The campaign within the Democratic party against the free-coinage movement will no doubt take its keynote from the President’s letter and the speeches which may be made by members of the cabinet. The campaign will be directed against the free coinage of silver at 16 to 1, and the assertion will be made that such coinage would mecan silver monometallism and would be disastrous to the business inter- ests of the country, great and small, and extend to every class and condition, no matter in what pursuit engaged. o TR Ffferson Davis Jr. Reinterved.
