FIELD DAY OF MENAGE INDICTMENTS AGAINST THE GUAR ANTY LOAN MAN ARE KOLLED HIS BONDSMEN AEE RELEASED County Attorney Reed Decides Not to Proweeute the Man Who Tnrned Tail and Ran When the Crash Came—Witnesses Are Dead or (■one, and Other Reasons Given for the Action. f LOBE'S MINNEAPOLIS OFFICE. O SO WASHINGTON AY. 80UTH. Main 2013 AdvertJ»Jng— Subscriptions— 2790- o—4. Louis P. Menage is free, and that with out a trial. The three indictments against him were yesterday nolled, the cases stricken from the calendar, and his bonds men released from the obligations, on motion of County Attorney Reed. Kis former motion recites that William S. Streeter, who was indicted Jointly with Louis F. Menage, was tried twice, and in both case« the jury failed to agree, and finally, on motion of the then county at torney, the cases were dismissed. The state alleged in these trials that Streeter | was the active manager of the North western Guaranty Loan company, and that Menage was away the greater part of the time. It was argued that the evi dence against Menage is no stronger than against Streeter, and there is no new ev ide7ice. It was impossible to secure con victions against Streeter, even five years ago, when public sentiment against him was very strong. Further still, the county attorney cites the fact that four of the material wit nesses—George A. Plllsbury, H. V. Dou gan, Armstrong Taylor and Charles H. Woods—have died, and four other mate rial and necessary witnesses—Charles N. Hamblin, H. K. Cole, S. M. Houghton and Cora Rosencranz —are not residents of the state. Their attendance cannot be compelled, and they refuse to come at the request of the county attorney. Much of the documentary evidence, promissory notes and the riders, checks, credit and debit sips have been returned to the banks and other owners. Finally, trial would cost about $5,000, with con vieuon wholiy improbable. For these rea sons Mr. Reed justified himself in moving for a dismissal. Judge Pond grained all three motions. IX SAVING HER DOLL. Terrible Death of Teresa Magnranj-, Aged Five; A rag doll cost five-year-old Teresa Magurany her life yesterday afternoon, after the child had suffered nearly six hours of terrible agony. Unnoticed by her mother, little Teresa was playing about the stove yesterday afternoon at the family home, &9 Thirteenth avenue northeast, with her rag doll. In some way the dell eaugrht fire from the stove, and, with a child's impulse, Teresa tried to put the fire out. Her own clothing caug-ht fire. In a second's time the child's clothes were a mass of flames and she ran from* the room, screaming for her mother. Mrs. Magurany ran to her child's assist ance, and just as Teresa had tried to save the doll Mrs. Magurany tried to save her child, painfully burning her own hands in trying to put out the fire and in tearing the burning clothing from the child. The screams of the mother and child attract ed the neighbors, and, although her clothing had been torn from her body, some one poured a bucketful of water over the little one. W. S. Kerber and a friend were driving by and they, too, ran into the yard. The child stood screaming in the yard, her clothing torn from her and her face and body burned black, while the women gathered in the house, some of them with their aprons covering their faces. The j men carried the child into the house and I Herber went after Dr. Gustav Fischer. I The physician dressed the burns, but at 10 o'clock last night the child died. Michael Magurany, father of the child, is working in the woods. DEATH BY HIS OWX HAXD. Inquest on the Man Who Killed Himself In Omaha. Mrs. George A. Wall, wife of the man who committed suicide at 12*.' South Ninth street, Friday night, an Omaha exchange says, reached this city from Minneapolis about 11 o'clock Saturday night and went immediately to the police station. She was shown every attention there by Capt. Hayes, who tried to comfort her as he told her of the death of her husband. As she was apprised of the fact she could only exclaim: "It is all a mystery to me! He was the kindest husband that ever was. All this trouble is news to me. He left home in good spirits and left me in good circumstances. I cannot explain the matter at all. He must have been out of his right mind or he would not have done this deed." An inquest was held over the remains at Coroner Swanson's office Saturday night. Several new witnesses were heard, but no new matter was deduced. The jury brought in a verdict to the effect that he came to his death, from a gun shot wound inflicted by liimself. Mrs. Wall was so overcome with grief that she was unable to tell when she would I take the body home. The remains will be held at the office of the coroner until l she has recovered from .he effects of the faheck. TO ANOKA AND PRINCETON. Sew Railroad to Be Built Early in the Sprint;. A company has been organized to build a passenger railway from Camden place, in North Minneapolis, to Princeton, Minn., a distance of sixty miles. Work will be commenced in the spring and will be pushed to completion as rapidly as poFsible. The company will guarantee to the people of Anoka and Princeton, and the other towns that will be touched, the early completion of the line and at least two trains each way a day. The company is prepared to spend $250, --000 on the line. From Camden Place to Anoka it will probably run over the road bed that has been in part finished by the promoters of the Minneapolis and Cham plin electric line, and after reaching Anoka it will run to the northwest, tak ing in a large number of small towns on the way to Princeton. The line is being built primarily for passenger service, but it is expected that after the line is in running order that freight will also be carried. The trains will consist of a motor and one passenger coach, two if necessary, and as many freight cars as may be necessary to handle the business. The gauge will be the same as that on the regular railway lines, so that if it is found desirable freight cars may be switched to the old lines and brought right into the city. The line will be in no way connected with the street railway. Hotel Clerks Organize. Minneapolis hotel clerks organized an association last night. The officers elect ed were: President, Starr K. Jackson, late of the West, now chief clerk of the Park hotel. Hot Springs, Ark.; vice president, Eb S. Hoyt, Hotel Huyser treasurer, George Wirtz.

MARCH'S FORCES WERE CL,O*E UPON THE HEELS OP THE FILIPINO CHIEF BODYGTJABD WAS NOT LARGE Gen. del Pllar'a Force Said to Have Consisted of a Few Hundred Men —A&uinaldo Deluded Natives—ln duced Them to Believe That the Co n Kress of the United States Would Recognize Independence. MANILA, Dec 11.—Dispatches dated Concepcion, Dec. 2, from a correspondent of the Associated Press with the detach ment pursuing Aguinaldo, have just reached Manila by messenger. The mil itary wires on all lines to the northward are continually cut by the natives or are crowded with government business when working. According to these advices Gen. Young was at Condon Nov. 29, having three troops of the Third cavalry. Cunning ham's scouts and Maj. March's battalion of the Thirty-third infantry. The nominal strength of his command had been re duced one-third by sickness. The horses were worn out and handicapped by lack of shoes. The infantry, after a march of 100 miles from San Jacinto, were shoeless and all were living on the country. The tioops had no ammunition except what they carried in their belts. Gen. Young, having then been without communication with Gen. Lawton for ten days, and not knowing the disposition of the other ' troops, or whether support was being j sent forward, resolved tc t%?p moving. ] Having received Information that the in- J surgent general, Tino, with 1,000 men, was somewhere to the north and that Aguinaldo, with Gen. Pilar, five women and 400 soldiers of his faithful Bulacan battalion, was in the mountains to the west, Gen. Young_ decided, on Nov. 30, to divide his force. He proceeded toward Vigan, hoping to attack Gen. Tino with his handful of men and to prevent him joining Aguinaldo. Maj. March, with his battalion, and Cunningham's scouts start ed over the mountains toward Cervantes after Aguinaldo, who was supposed to have been there on Nov. 29. This col umn marched for thirteen hours without food. The Associated Press correspond ent goes on to say. NATIVES ARE IMPARTIAL. "The Americans found that the insur gents had impressed the Igorrotes, com pelling them to dig trenches and to con struct pitfalls along the trails, which were fearful traveling at the best. One stream had to be forded twelve times in the course of a miie. These inoffensive, stupid creatures, usually pictured as bloodthirsty savages, cheerfully turned from their own work and went foraging for the Americans. The Licos region is the richest the Americans have entered 1h the northern campaign. The Licos are prosperous and intelligent, and more than half civilized. They have excel'.ent houses, j and carry on flourishing industries. Many of them are evidently rich, and several towns received the troops with bands and ringing of church bells. Cattle were kill ed and houses were opened to the troops. "How much of this display was sincere and how much due to a desire to pro pitiate the conquerors it would be haid to say. There were evidences that similar Rospltality had been extended to Aguinal do. The people describe him as cheerful, hugging the hope of salvation through American politics, and everywhere try ing to retain support by proclaiming, with seeming sincerity, that the United States congress would certainly recognize he in dependence of the Filipino republic in De cember. "Many of the natives exhibited notes from Lieut. Gilmore and other American prisoners, in which the recipients were commended to the Americana on the score of kindness shown to the writers. There are twenty-seven Americans with Lieut. Gilmore. Another party of fourteen were taken through Licos a week ahead of Gen. Young. They were ragged and diry, and the natives say some of them were urged forward at the point of the bayo net." Gen. Lawton with the Thirty-fifth in fantry and four troops of the Third cav ally has occupied Sfin Mig-uel without a fight. GEN. GRANT'S COLUMN Reaches Olanfcapo After Some Se vere SliirmUhes With Filipinos. MANILA, Dec. 11.—The advance guard of Gen. Grant's command, under Maj. Spence, arrived at Olangapo, Sublg bay, during the night of Saturday, Dec. 9, which place was occupied with little re sistance, the enemy fleeing. Maj. Spence had an arduous march over the mountain trails from Dinaluslan. Yesterday morning the Baltimore, Ore gon and a chartered transport arrived at Olangapo from Manila. The navy was disappointed to find the army in posses sion of the place, which they had hoped to capture. A detachment of marines, un der Capt. Myers, occupied the navy yard at Olangapo, and wtll hold and occupy it as a. naval station. The yard consists" of seven new large buildirtgs and some re pairing and machinery, shops, all dam aged by the bombardment of Sept 23. During the moriing of. Dec. 10 the navy transported Maj. Sp^icf s command from Olangapo to the town o£ Sublg, five miles distant. The enemy^,yr^s seen deserting Subig as the troops landed, and the lat ter occupied it without resistance. They found the place abandoned by the re treating enemy, who fired a few shots. The Americans deployed to the right and left of the town, and killed one of the enemy. Gen. Grant and the remainder of his command arrived at Olangapo yesterday afternoon. He will proceed today to Subig, and join Maj. Spence. Gen. Grant will move north along the coast, and will effect a junction with the Twenty-fifth infantry, under Col. W. S. Burt, who was reported eight miles from Iba, • Dec. 7. The enemy encountered in Gen.

Gat acre's reverse made an Immense impres sion In Paris. Although the afternoon pa pers predict the gravest consequences in the disaffected portion of Cape Colony, they cannot be accused of unseemlng ex ultation over British misfortunes. Most of the journals see In the defeat an ugly trap laid by Boers, working in conjunc tion with Dutch traitors. The Journal dcs Debats epitomizes the general opinion, saying that Sir Alfred Mllner has threat ened In vain to overwhelm the disloyal Dutch with the thunderbolts of British wrath, and that even he today must re alize that race sympathy is stronger than loyalty. It sees in the attitude of tho Afrikanders the inevitable result of a struggle for supremacy between Dutch and British in South Africa. The Temps says: "The story of ambush from Stormberg reads like a chapter from Cooper's 'The Spy.' The situation resembles that of the American war of independence, when the colonists devoted themselves to de ceiving, misleading and ambushing the British generals for love of their coun try, and with the assent of Washington." FEELING IN BERLIN. BERLIN, Dec. 11.—Gen. Gatacre's re verse at Stormberg was joyfully greeted on the stieets of Berlin, but t!i<? news papers lor the most part are reticent on the subject. The Berliner Tiv--, | which prints a long lerter from a German in London, advi?ing the public here against demonstrative Anglophobia, gives the news of the repulse without comment. The Vossische Zeitung comments in a strain almost filendly, saying: "Afier the soldierly virtues which the British have already Bhown in this v.;;r it may well be believed that Gen. Gat acre's men fought as ff on the p;> i grounds." ACQUIRED IX AME'UtA. Military Education mid Skill of Kotr Gen. Joubert. ST. LOUIS, Mo., Dec. 11.-Capt. J. T.
