Special to the Globe.Hastings, Minn., Feb. 16.—The most
sensational event which has occurredinHastings for many months took placeshortly after 7 o'clock this evening. Atthat time Miss Mary Dietzen and MissEmma Link were walking up Secondstreet engaged in animated conversa-tion. Suddenly they were halted byLouis Sommers, who, after speak-ing a few words to Miss Dietzen,drew a revolver and shot the girldead,disappearing immediately afterwardinto the darkness. Miss Dietzen wasone of the best and most favorablyknown young ladies of the community.Itis said she. bad kept company withyoung Sommers for some time, but<finally refused to marry him. Atleast this is the cause assigned
for the cold-blooded murder.Officers are in hot pursuit ofSommers, but up to midnight had notovertaken him. The remains of MissDietzen were removed to Mertz &Son'sundertaking rooms, where they wereviewed by several hundred excited peo-ple. Had Sommers been cautiht duringthe evening some convenient telegraphpole would have supported his lifelessbody before morning. Coroner Cadzow,of Rosemount, has been notified, and aninquest willbe held to-morrow.
WITH HICKOKYSWITCHES.
Horrible Treatment to West Vir-einiansbv MiiallCaps.
Wheeling, W. Va., Jan. 18.—Thered man and white cap spirit seems tobe coming to the front in certain pailsof this state. AtRockporr, Wood county,Charles Smith and his wife were bothtaken from their home and unmer-cifully beaten on the back withhickory switches and compelledto leave the \u25a0 county and thestate. The family passed throughParkersburg yesterday, and told a hbr-ril»le story of their suffering and treat-ment. The wife says that after whip-ping her husband the mob caught herwhile she was trying to escape fromthe house with their children, and tiedher toa tree. She was then beaten untilthe blood came. Mrs. Smith says thewhole cause for the outrage was her re-sistance of the improper solicitation ofa citizen of her neighborhood. AtClayCourt House a woman was also drivenaway by a mob, who visited her house,liring ernns and revolvers, and tied anote of warning to her door.
THBSAWIELLK MYSTERY.
Sixteen Thousand People Visitthe Scene.
Rochester, N. H., Feb. 16.—Sixteenthousand people have to-day visited thelocality where the dismembered re-mains of Hiram A.Sawtelle were un-earthed. Everything in the shape ofconveyance within a radius of thirtymiles has been pressed into service, andan endless array of overcrowded teamshas been the result. While there havebeen no startling developments to-day,many minor matters have been broughtto light, strengthening the chain of evi-dence. Early this morning CountySolictor Kivelsent Drs. Ham and Sulli-van from Dover, who. with Dr.Danieisof this place, made a thorough exami-nation of the body. Supt. Small hadalready telegraphed Officer Wathamthat there was a thickness of flesharound Hiram Sawtelle's finger nails,caused by disease, also a twist in hisankle, both of which the physiciansfound on the dead body. Every daybrings additional proof that the murderwas committed in New Hampshire,which has a capital penalty, whileMaine has not. John Willey, who drivesa logging team, made a statement to-day that he passed a carriage, supposedto contain Hiram and Isaac, in the pinewoods between here and East Rochester,and a" few minutes afterwards he dis-tinctly heard three shots in quick suc-cession. A number of other partiesheard the firing. Search for the missinghead is still being prosecuted.
HAWKS' SKCRErS
Reach the Sheriff Through aDeputy.
Birmingham, Ala., Feb. 16.—Lastnight Dick Hawes wrote two letters,ona to Miss May Story, the young ladywhom he married in Columbus, andthe other to Ed Weaver, ofMarion. Ind. He gave them un-stamped to Deputy Gus Ellard, whoturned them over to Sheriff Smith. Heopened them. Both said, when re-ceived the writer would be dead, whichplainly meant that Hawes intended tocommit suicide. The letter to MissStory said his late confession, in whichhe claimed that he paid John Wylie tokillhis wife and Irene, was false. Hedidittoget even with Wylie, who hadonce, while both were in jail here, be-trayed a plot that Hawes and otherprisoners had on foot to escape.
CHARGED TO MORMONS.Attempt to Steal the Utah Com-
mission's Books.Salt Lake Citt, Feb. 16.— A few
days before Christmas the Utah com-mission's office was entered by burglars,and an unsuccessful attempt made tosteal the books and papers. The Utahcommission is the body of men whohave charge of all election matters Inthis territory, and keep all the recordspertaining to elections. Itwas gener-ally supposed that the Mormons wereat the bottom of this attempted burglary,for they were desirous about that timeof procuring the registration books, ifpossible. Friday the Mormons begantheir contest in the Third districtcourt tocompel the Utah commission toissue to their candidates for the citycouncil from the Third and Fourth pre-cincts of this city certificates of elec-tion. They have the majority of votesin these precincts, and if the court de-cides that preciuct votes count for couu-
oilmen instead of the general vote ofthe city, the Mormons would have sixout of fifteen ccunciluieu. The case-was set for to-morrow for appearing,but the opinion prevails that the oldlaw is still in force and that the pre-cinct vote willnot count. Friday nightauother attempt was made to steal therecords of the I7tah commission, but asthe important papers are all in the safedeposit vault of the Union Nationalbank, nothing of consequence was ob-tained. The burglars, however, stolethe gold watch of Gen. McClernandand mo.SHOT THROUGH THE HEART.

THE PACIFIC ROADS.Reports ofSenators Frye and
Davis Accepted by theCommittee.
A BillProviding for a Refund-ingof Their Debts Agreed
Upon.
The Measure Provides Thatthe Debts Shall Be Paid in
Fifty Years.
A Mortgage on Its Propertyto Be Given by the Union
Pacific.
Washington, Feb. 16.—The senatespecial committee of Pacific railroads,after many heariugs, thorough investi-gation and careful consideration, havefinallyaccepted the reports of SenatorFrye on the Union Pacific and SenatorDavis on the Central Pacific, and agreedtoa billproviding for a refunding oftheir debts. The report on the UnionPacific reaches the following conclu-sions :
First— That the policy of building oracquiring branch lines was wise and,through the period covered by their in-quiry, honestly and economically car-ried out.
Second—
That the main line has de-rived an immense advantage from thebranches, and that there is no founda-tion for the charge that the latter havereceived undue benefit from construct-ive mileage, or otherwise, at the ex-pense of the main line.
Third—That the buildingof the Ore-gon Short line and the subsequent ac-quirement of the Oregon Railway andNavigation company's lines, instead ofbeing a menace to the interest of thegovernment, have proved to be a decidedadvantage.
Fourth— That the recent consolida-tion ot several branches, under thename of the Oregon Short Line &UtahNorthern Railway company, simplifiesthe system of the Union Pacific, makespossible a more effective and ecouomi-cal management, and in no regard evi-dences any purpose of evading the obli-gations to the government.
Filth—That the branches, instead ofbeing maintained at the expense, of themain line, contribute at least $3,000,000a year to the treasury of the company.
Sixth—
That the improvements havebeen, for several years past, greater onthe main line thau on the branches;some of them very important and ex-pensive.
Seventh— That there isno evidence ofany purpose on the part of the companyto surrender that portion of the lineover which the government has a statu-tory lien; on the contrary, every reasontending to satisfy any candid personthat no such purpose exists.
Eighth—That this is a capable, well-managed road, abundantly able to payits debts, requiring only, like everyother railroad, time in which to pay.
Ninth—That the present managementIs honestly trying to effect a fair adjust-ment with the government.
Tenth— That the interests of the gov-ernment and of the railway companywillbe promoted by a settlement, andthat one can be made "ow under whichevery dollar of the government debt,withinterest, willbe had. It finds thepresent security to be a statutory lienon aroad commencing three miles westof the Missouri river, extending to apoint fivemiles west of Ogden, and onanother road commencing one-half milewest of Kansas City and extending to apoint393 miles westerly, commencingin a prairie and ending inoue>; notenough to protect the government debt,ifitshall not be adjusted until it be-comes due, within $50,000,000; whileunder the Dill to be reported, the secu-rity obtained willbe twice the govern-ment debt invalue, and the payments,according to the terms of the bill,abso-lutely certain.
THE CENTRAL PACIFIC.The report on the Central Pacific
finds that the United States has for se-curity a statutory lien on a i 1 com-mencing at a point five miles west ofOgden and extending toSan Jose, with-out terminal facilities at either end.made subject to a mortgage to securebonds equal in amount to the originalindebtedness of the company to theUnited States: that that portion of theroad from Ogden to the westerly slopeof the Sierra Nevadas is practicallyonly a bridge, without any local busi-ness of any amount; that the roadsreaching from the main line into Ne-vada do not now pay their actual ex-Denses; that the present security of theUnited States upon this property is en-tirely inadequate; that a foreclosure ofthe lirst mortgage would substantiallyexhaust, insatisfaction thereof, the en-the property; and that itwould be in-expedient for the United States to re-deem itfrom said first mortgage, or tobecome the owner of the propertythrough redemption and foreclosure.The report finds that it Is expedient,necessary and practicable to adjust andfurther secure the indebtedness to theUnited States upon extended time at areduced rate of interest within the abil-ityof the company to pay, upon suchterms as to advance the development ofthe country through which said roadspass, and afford the inhabitants thereofreasonable rates of transportation forpassengers and freight. From the re-port it appears that the Central Pacifichas not an ability to pay at all equal tothat of the Union Pacific, buj under theterms of the bill to be reported canmake
FINAL AND FULLPAYSrENTreasonably certain. The bill asreedupon includes within its provisions theLnion Pacific Railroad company, theKansas Pacific Railway company, theCentral branch of the Union PacificRailroad company, consolidated underthe name of the Union Pacific Railwaycompany, the Central Pacific company,successor to the Central Pacific RailroadCompany of California, and the West-ern Pacific Raiiroad company. It pro-vides inthe first section for rinding thepresent worth of the indebtedness ofthe Union Pacific Railway company onIst day of July, iB6O, and for the pay-ment to the United States of thatamount, with 3 per cent interest, pay-able semi-annuaily; also a portion ofthe principal annually, so that the en-tire debt shall be paid In fifty years.Itrequires in section two that the UnionPacific Railway company shall give amortgage on all its property of 'everyname and description, real, mixed andpersonal, and also preserves to theUnited States its present statutoryHen. Itprovides in section five that, ivthe event of the failure of said com-pany toaccept the provisions of the act.there shall be carried to the credit ofthe sinking fund one-half of the com-pensation for services rendered for thegovernment, and in addition theretothe sum of §2,000.000 a year, or seventy-fiveper cent of the whole net earniiiijsof the Union Pacific Railway company;extending also the provisions of theThuraan act to the Kansas Pacific
Railway company, and to the centralbranch of the Union Pacific Railroadcompany; that
ON FAILURE TO PAY.a receiver shall be appointed to takecharge of, manage, and operate theroad, branches and lines of said com-pany until the principal and interest ofthe det>t should have been fully paid.Section 6 provides for the ascertainmentof the present worth of the debt of theCentral Pacific Railroad company; thenfor the payment of interest at the rateof 2 per cent per annum, payable semi-anuually, and of so much ot the princt-pal as shall result inthe payment of theentire debt in seventy-five years. Butinorder to relieve the road from toogreat a burden during the next tenyears, when it is necessary for ittomake somewhat extensive im-provements, it capitalizes for thattime one-half of the a per cent to bepaid. The billrequires bysection sevena mortgage of the entire property of theCentral Pacific Railroad company, iu-cluding some very important roads inCalifornia; and, also, by that sectionana a subsequent one. that the South-ern Pacific Railroad company and theCentral Pacific shall make the presentlease subsisting between them addi-tional security to the United States forthe payment of the debt. Section elevenprovides that either of the said com-panies may extend the payment of orrefund indebtedness prior to that of theUnited States to the par value of suchfirstmortgage bonds, the rate of inter-est not to exceed 5 per cent. Sectiontwelve provides that in the event ofanydefault for ninety days in the paymentof interest or principal, as required bythe act, the entire debt
SHALL IMMEDIATELYMATURE?also for a record of the mortgage by thesecretary ot the treasury in conformitywith the laws of the various states andterritories where the property is situa-ted. Section IS provides that the UnitedStates may retain allmoney due to thesecompanies for services until the in-stallments of principal and interestupon their bonds next maturing aftersuch services are rendered shall betullypaid. Section 14 provides that thecompanies 6hali pay no dividends un-less the same shall have een actuallyearned, and unless such company\u25a0hail have paid all interest andmatured indebtedness due. witha penalty for the violation of theact by any director or officer.Section 17 provides for authority to usethe name of said company or companiesagainst any person who is or has beendirector, officer, agent or employe ofsaid companies for the enforcement ofany cause of action arising or whichmay hereafter arise out of any violationof duty, any appropriation of assets orany other act In respect to whichthe department of justice shallallege that itdesires such action; andthat any sums ot money recovered insuch suits shall go toward the pnvmentof the indebtedness to the UnitedStates. Section 18 provides for the re-peal of the law requiring governmentdirectors; also of the laws imposinglimitations on the rights of the com-pany to acquire property, extend itsrailways, etc.. etc. Section 19 makes itthe duty of the attorney general toen-force the provisions of the act and to re-port annually to the president, whichreport shall be laid before congress.The bill will be reported to the senatethis week, and the committee will askthat itwill be made the special orderfor consideration in the first week inMarch.

gram was received here statin? that theBaltimore &Ohio railroad stock ownedby the Johns Hopkins university was tobe sold, that Andrew Carnegie was tobuy the university block of 15.000 sharesand that Mr.Carnegie was to be madepresident of the road.

GOING SOUTHWARD.
The Northern Pacific Has a BisUndertaking on Hand.
Special to the Globe.Chicago, Feb. 16.—1t has now be-
come a certainty that the Northern Pa-cific and Canadian Pacific systems areto be connected by a line running northfrom Seattle, Wash., to a junction point
in British Columbia. The proposedmovement of the Northern Pacific tocontinue its line through the northernpart of Washington to the boundaryand there make connection with theCanadian transcontinental line tap-ping Vancouver and New Westminster,and possibly to reach a good harborpoint on the Pacific ocean, is now un-derstood to be definitely settled. Pro-ceeding northward from Seattle, theHue will run north to Mohomish, thento the Skagit river, passing throughCedro, from which point It is probablethat a branch will be built toShip harbor. The line will thenrun west of, parallel with andvery close to, that of theSeattle, Lake Shore and Eastern, untilthe British boundary is reached in thevicinity of Blame. Among the pro-posed feeders to secure traffic into NewWestminster and Vancouver, across theline, are branches to Whatcom and Bel-krigham bay, and itmay hereafter bedecided to runa branch near Linden.When the fabulous cost of constructinga railroad northward through themountains ofWashington is considered,tiie immensity of this undertaking ofthe Northern Pacific can be fullyappre-ciated. Itis stated that the constructionof the new Hue will begin from Seattleinabout three weeks. Although it willrequire about three mouths to finish thepreliminary survey, the entire work ofconstruction. Engineer Huson states,can be finished by the end of the year,and the road be in condition for busi-ness. The company wil! shortly beginthe construction ot extensive railroadyards at Seattle. The estimated cost ofthese yards willbe between $400,000 and$.300,000. Ifthe intentions of the UnionPacifi.;and Canadian Pacific are to pushmatters as fast as the Northern statesits intention of doing, a great era ofrailroad building may be looked for inWashington.

The Auburn Divine Raises a Rig
Church Debt..Chicago. Feb. 16.—Rev. Dr. Ivea, ofAuburn, N. V., the "church debt:raiser," demonstrated again to-day thefltuess of his sobriquet. The occasionwas the dedication of the new Park av-enue Methodist church, on the cornerof Robey street, of which Rev. WilliamFawcett is the pastor. The edifice is ahandsome brown stone, costing 88,000,$on which there remained a debt thismorning of 116,000. Dr. Ives' eloquentand persistent appeals secured from thepeople present at the dedication exer-cises pledges for the whole $16,000, pay-able in three and six months. The con-ditions were that no subscription wouldbe counted unless the entire amount ofthe debt was subscribed. Dr. Ives, inthe course of his remarks, mentionedthat he had participated in1.200 similar jaffairs throushtout the United Statea,

Wife and Himself.
Both Men Are Dead and theWoman Is at the Grave's
Brink.
One Negro Stabs AnotherFatally as the Result of
a Grudge.
Netv York, Feb. 16.—This has beena day of murderous crime in this city.Isaac Jacob, a resident of Brooklyn,killedHerman Royozinsky at daybreakin a stable at 47 Ridge street. Fromthis poiut he went to t a murderedman's residence at 54 Ridsie street tokillhis wife, Johanna. She was comingthrough the door as he approached, andhe shot her with a revolver. The ballentered her neck on the left side closetothe jugular vein. The woman's six-teen-year-old son Otto bounded fromthe room and leaped at the murdererof his father before a second shotcould be fired. Jacob turned and fled,holding the still smoking revolver inhis baud. They rau south, towardsBroome street, and when near the cor-ner Jacob turned on the young manand aimed the revolver at his head.Otto dodged behind a wagon, andJacob, seeing two police officers ap-proaching, placed the muzzle of the re-volver to his own temple and fired. Hefell to the ground, with the t»lood pour-ing from the wound, and died ina fewminutes. Mrs. Royozinsky ran towardsthe Delancey stieet police station, withthe blood oozing from her wound. Shehad just strength to reach it, when suefell unconscious onthe floor. The po-lice followed
KEK BLOODY TRATL,and were just in time to witness the lastact of the tragedy. Various causes ledto the shooting. The trouble beganthree years ago. \tthat time Jacob issaid to have smuggled $7,000 worth ofdiamonds into this country. Fearingdiscovery, Jacob turned the diamondsover to the murdered man to keep forhim. When the danger was over Jacobasked for the return of the diamonds.Royozinsky, it is said, refund to givethem up. This led to a quarrel, andJacob threatened the other's lite.Another cause is found in thetact that Jacob was enamoredfo Royozinsky's niece. His suit pros-pered until itwas learned that he had awife and children living with him inBrooklyn. Jacob admitted this whenquestioned by the girl's relatives. Royo-zinsky refused him the house, andJacob became enraged. He continuedto call and insisted on marrying thegirl, anyhow. Frequent and bitterquarrels ensued between the Royo-zinskys and Jacob, and the latter sworehe would get even with them. Th^nthey refused to allow him to enter thehouse at all, and Jacob became furious.Jacob went to the house at 4:30 o'clockthis morning.
HE KNOCKED ON THE POORand told the Royozinskys that somebodywas trying to steal tiieir horse. Theelder Royozinsky is an expressman. Hedressed himself, and, accompanied byJacob, crossed the street and enieredthe stable, which was just over the way.In the stable yard Jacob placed a re-volver against Royozinsky's breast andfired. The ball went through Royoz-insky's breast and he felldead without aword. Jacob coolly put the revolver inhis pocket, shut and locked the stabledoor
_and entered_ the Royozinskys'
house. Mrs. Royozinsky. in the mean-time, had become suspicious that all wasnot right. She was about to start afterher busbana when she met Jacoband was shot as already stated.The bodies of the murdered man andsuicide were taken to the station house,and the wounded woman was taken tothe Hospital in a precarious condition.A bullet entered her neck and wastaken out half way down her back-Both of the dead men were about forty-five years old, and Mrs. Royozinsky isfifty. An ax was found near Uoyo-zinsky's dead body, and itis supposedthat Jacob intended to use it it' tiiebullet did not do the work quickenough. On Jacob's dead body wasfound a letter written in very bad En-glish. Itsaid that he was born inRus-sia and was a citizen of the UnitedStates. He told in a rambling mannerof having been swindled out of moneyby a number of parties in this city, andot law suits in which he was engagedand which profited him nothing.

Special to the Globe.Washburn, N.D Feb. 16.—0n the
Missouri slope the winter of 1889-90 willbe memorable for its peaceful character.Not until Feb. 4 was anything ap-proaching a storm experienced. Onthat date the wind blew at a terrificvelocity, as ifto make amends for itspast sluggishness. The fallof snow hasbeen nearly an average, and the calmweather and warm, sunny days havecaused itto remain where itfell,conse-quently the sleighing has been remark-ably good during the winter. Horsesand cattle are in good condition.Several bands of horses in this(McLean) county have been runningatlarge on the range, and, withlittle attention from their owners, keepin prime condition. .Our people arejust realizing that this part of Dakota isnot yet past its experimental stage ofdevelopment. Itmust be acknowledgedthat half a dozen years is too short atime to determine the real worth of acountry. The first settlers decided thatthe scarcity ofhay would prevent thisfrom ever becoming a successful stockcountry; and, if anything, it must bewheat. The late dry seasons have hadtheir effect. The exclusive grain pro-ducer has decided that this country isgood for nothing, and is preparing todepart for some more favorable field, orhas already gone in search of pasturesnew. We see others who possessedthemselves of a cow or two, or, in somecases, a span ot mares, when they com-menced settlement, prospering steadilyand well satisfied with their location.Time Ims demonstrated the actual valueofour nutritious native grasses. Evenin midwinter, horses displace the snowby means of pawing and devour withavidity the brown but succulent grassbeneath. Cattle thrivewell iffed whenthe snow is deep. Whenever the hillsare free from -snow, they are as wellsatisfied on the prarie as ifitwere Mayor June. Hence, spring often surprisesthe tanner with several tons of hay tobe carried over for another winter.Notwithstanding the partial fail-ure of the past two sea-sons, caused by adverse condi-tions of climate, quite a large acreage ofgrain willbe seeded the coming spring.There is a fair supply of seed on handand the majority of farmers are deter-mined to try again. McLean countyhas natural advantages unsurpassed inthe Northwest. Anabundance of valu-able coal, timber all along its westernboundary, plenty of water, a species ofself-curing grass which 'Contains excel-lent feeding properties at all seasons ofthe year, and above all,an invigorating,salubrious
-climate. These are attrac-
tions which should be weighed by thoseseeking a home. The time is not fardistant when the hardy yeoman willhave taken the place of the restlessrover, and the foundation of McLean'sfuture- prosperity willbe bused on arock. : ' •'."-;-\u25a0 _\u25a0-•-• v'-
