The Murder of Sheriff Dunn to be Thor
oughly Investigated Carter Har
rison Dies on the Traill.
Washington-, D. C. Jan. 6. A large
number of papers were presented and
referred. One was from the Chamber "of
Commerce Seattle, Wash., praying that
congress be more liberal in appropria
tions to enable tne war and navy depart
ments to piace the c'ountry in a thorough
condition for defense, so as tp be pre
pared to maintain its national dignity
and protect its humblest citizens in any
part.
The vice president laid before the sen
ate a message from the president trans
mitting an agreement by commissioners
with the lndians on the Colville reser
vation in Washington.
Among the bills introduced and re
ferred was one granting pensions to sol
diers who were in the Seminole and
other Indian wars.
The senate bill introduced by Stewart
to provide for free coinage of gold and
silver bullion was taken up and Morrill
proceeded to address the senate in op
position to tne bill.
The Last Day.
Columbus,- Ohio, Jan. 6. The last
day of the senatoriol contest brings no
change in the situation. The only
questloir"Bgitating the" public mind is
"What will be Sherman's majority in
the senatorial caucus." ' His friends
claim this morning that he will receive
fiftv-six votes and Foraker but thirty-
six, but the friends of the ex-governor
scout the assertion that their candidate
will b.e beaten by twenty votes, and
many maintain he still has a chance to
win. The chief interest today seems to
center in the question whether tonight's
senatorial ballot is to be open or secret.
Generally speaking, the Sherman people
are fighting for an open ballot and the
Foraker people for a secret ballot.
Secretary Klaine 111.
Washington, D. C, Jan. 6. Great
excitement was caused in the depart
ment of state this forenoon over the sud

gether to temporary stomachic derange
ment. The alarm subsided about noon,
when the secretary, who is attended by
physicians from the war and navy de
partments was reported as resting
quietly and being entirely out of danger.
The secretary was removed" to his
home in a carriage. He is now reported
to be much improved, and is expected
to De able to be out tomorrow.

Electricity tc Run Mills.
'St. Paul, Jan. 3. It is announced
today that a revolution in flourmaking
as great as the introduction of the roller
process some years ago, . is to occur here
in the next two months. It is no less
than the substitution of electricity for
water or steam for the running 'of an im
mense mill to be erected on West Third
street, on the site of the St. Paul roller
mill, burned two years ago. The plan
is that of Kingfeland Smith, who intro
duced the roller process of wheat crush
ing twelve yeais ago, and who is a prac
tical miller of many years' experience.
Mr. Smith has been experimenting for
the past thirteen months with electric
ity for moving mill machinery, and said
tonight:
' I have become thoroughly convinced
of its cheapness and its entire practica
bility", I shall introduce it in the big
St. Paul mill with entire conlidente that
it will settle the question of cheap
power.
A Paaaenger Train Derailed.
Gaefield, Wash., Jan. 5. Sunday
morning as passenger train No. o, of the
Union Pacific, was about midway be
tween Latah and Tekoa, the rails spread,
derailing the entire train from the ten
der to the Pullman and tearing up 150
yards of track. The engine and tender
passed in safety, but the mail car, ex
press car,, smoker and chair car were all
wrecked. The latter swayed so violently
that some of the passengers were .made
sick, and when it was stopped, it was at
such an angle that it was impossible to
walk through it. The mail-car was the
only one upset, and it was thrown down
an embankment, one end projecting over
the creek. The other cars remained on
the grade, but not a wheel was on the
track. The mail clerk was hurt slightly,
but no one else was injured. An extra
train was sent from Tekoa to the relief
of the wrecked train.
Vltohert and Minnie" Case Dismissed.
San Fkancisco, Jan. 5. The new
United States circuit court of appeals

with Judge Morrow of California Judge
Hanford of "Washington, and Judge
Hawley, of Nevada, on the bench.
When the second case on the calendar
was called, that of the United States vs.
the schooner Robert and Minnie, Mr.
Page, who has appeared as counsel in
several cases growing out of the Itata
affair arose and asked .that the case be
dismissed. - He asked for this on several
grounds, which were that there was no
I appearance by counsel for the govern
' inent and that no brief had been filed
by the government. He was instructed
to file a motion in writing to dismiss,
which he did. .

DECISION.
Passenger Train Derailed--Influenza
and La ftrlppe in Europe Other '
"eiv NntcK.
Washington, Jan. 5. The United
States supreme court rendered a decision
today in favor of the Northern Pacific
Railway Company, in the mandamus
suit brought against it by the territory
of Washington, ex rel. Hiram Duetin,
prosecuting attorney of Yakima county,
to compel the railway to maintain a sta
tion and stop its trains at Yakima City..
Justice Gray rendered the opinion of
the court. Justices Brewer, Field and
! Harlan dissented. The bill sets forth .
I that Yakima City, at the time of build
i ing the road, was the county seat and
! the largest town in that countv, and the
; object of the railroad company in refns
i ing to make Yakima City a railway sta
; tion was to ruin the town and enhance
i the value of the town-site of North
Yakima, -which the cumnany had lo
i cated on unimproved lands belonging to
' it. Justice Gray, in the opinion of the .
; court, says the writ of mandamus to
compel the railroad corporation to ' do a
particular act in constructing its road or
buildings, or in running its trains, can
be issued only when there is a specific
legal duty on its part to do that act, and
clear proof of a breach of duty. The
courts have so held, even in the matter
of establishing a station terminus of the
road. The difficulties in issuing a man
damus are much increased, when it is
sought to compel roads to stop trains at
a particular place. The location of sta
tions and warehouses for receiving and
delivering passengers and freight in
volves a comprehensive view of the in
terest of the public, as well as of the cor
poration, and a consideration of many
circumstances concerning the amount of
business and convenience of a particular
location, which are more appropriate to
be determined by the directors of the
company, or, in case of abuse of their
discretion by the legislature or by the
administrative boards intrusted by the -legislature
with that duty, than by ordi
nary judicial tribunals.' Justice Gray
eays the charter of the company does
not impose any specific duty as to the
maintenance and size of the stations,
and that to compel the directors to be
controlled by courts, by writs of man
damus, in establishing stations, would
be inconsistent with many previous de
cision.
A Murder in Skaclt County.
Seattle, Jan. 5. Word was brought
to this city late tonight of a desperate
fight, ending in murder, which occurred
at Marble Mound, Skagit county, on
New Year's day. Frank Barnes, Henry
Colby and D. E. Taylor were working in
the woods on the outskirts of Marble
Mound, which is located at the junction
of the Cascade and Skagit rivers. While
they were working, one Joseph Amerd,
a rancher, walked riehfc nn tn Knrnpn
and ordered him to leave the country at
once. Barnes replied that he was not
ready to go. This seemed to enrage
Amprrl (rrpfttlv I If kp?7A nn av npaf
by and went at Barnes, who ran, hotly
pursued by Amerd. The chase contin
ued for sixty yards, when Barnes came
to a tree, against which leaned a Win
chester rifle. He stopped short, took
up the gun, and leveled it at his pursuer
who was some distance behind. A sharp
report was followed by a slight stagger
on the part of Amerd, but he still kept
on coming. Barnes pulled the trigger
again and the ball lodged in Amerd's
bodv. Although bleeding from two deep
wounds, Amerd came at Barnes like a
savage bear. He grabbed the gun by
the barrel and twisted it from his antag-
mst. - rne moment tne gun was wrested
from his hands, Barnes drew a Colt's
revolver from his bosom and shot Amerd
through the heart. The third bullet did
the work and the man fell to the ground
dead. Barnes surrendered himself to
the justice of the peace. Amerd went
to Skagit county about a year and a half
ago and settled on unsurveyed govern
ment lands. During this time, be has
had several quarrels with different per
sons, and from reports it would appear
that he was known as a quarrelsome
character in his new home. One of the
men with whom he had trouble is Frank
Barnes, and to this the murder is at
tributed. What the exact nature of the
differences were, has not been made
public. Amerd leaves a wife and child
living on his ranch, and a brother who
resides near Birdsview. The murdered
man was we!! known in Seattle.
