1>II) HE MURDER KOHN?

Nicholas Kill Tells a Mixed StoryofHis Whereabouts When KohnWas Killed.There were no new developments in

the Kohn murder yesterday. In fact,the clean work of Wednesday left verylittle to be developed. The instrumentwith which the murder yvas committedhas not yet been found, nor have theclothes and the tin box belonging to themurdered man. The officers are workingevery cine. There is strong circumstan-tial evidence aginst Nicholas Kill, whoyvas arrested as the murderer. CoronerQuinn visited the llazzard place at(Ohio yesterday and sealed up the roomwhere Kohn yvas found. A coroner'sjury willbe sworn at Gross' undertak-ing'rooms on West Third street at 10o'clock this morning, and yvill visit theplace and view Komi's remains, nowlying at the morgue, before hearing theevidence ofwitnesses.Kill was arraignediv the police court yesterday morningcharged with murder, and Judge Coryadjourned the preliminary hearing toSept. 17.* He was taken * back to thecounty jail and locked in the first cell ofthe lower tier, facing the south. Hisprison-mate, who also occupies the cell,is Mike Brogan. a hackman, held to thegrand jury iiiAugust for highway rob-bery. Kill almost broke doyvnWednesday night when he was re-moved irom the central sta-tion to his present quarters,but nerved himself up yesterday, andassumed his usual indifferent manner.He was visited by a Globe reporter lastnight and refused to talk English, al-though he understands the languagewell and seeaks quite plainly, havingbeen in America nearly tyvo years.When questioned in German by HenryShields, the night watchman, who actedas interpreter, he answered readily.

"Did you know Kohn?" lie was asked."Yes lie was a friend of mine.""When did you see him last?"'-'Sunday noon at a saloon on Rice street."

' "Did you ever have any trouble with him"No, Inever did. We were good friends.""Do you know who murdered him?""1 can*, tell. Idon't know."On further questioning he said that

Kohn left for home on Sunday after-noon in company itS-ffß

__' - WITH THREE WOJIE-Vand two men, leaving him in the city.At T o'clock Sunday evening, he says,he went back to the Hazzard place, andKohn and the party were all having amerry time, singing and dancing, andseemed to be, good friends. A littlelater Kohn drove the party back to thecity and returned. They slept togetherthat night, and between 8 and 9 o'clockhe left Kohn and walked to the city.

\u25a1 "Then, when did you see Kohn last." .\u25a1 "Thai the last* time Isaw him."

Kill says he came to the city andstopped at Bernard Michel's saloon onRice street that morning and was goingto work for a milkman named Nolan.He started to walkout to Nolan's thesame night and got tired and slept inthe woods. In the morning he changedhis mind and walked back to the city.Then lie says lie came back to BernardMichel's in the forenoon and at noonNolan came and got 7- him anddrove him out, where .he was ar-rested. This explanation leaves oneday out altogether, for he yvashired by Nolan on Wednesday, theday after the murder, and was arrestedthe same day. He could not tell wherehe spent the other day— day Kohnwas murdered. He first said that heslept at Nolan's Tuesday night, butafterward denied it. When askedwhere he got Kohn's watch and bootshe hesitated and then answered delib-erately: "Mybrother Peter gave methe watch as a present fiveo^fiixjj'fegKs'ago. I bought the booJtS-yen or eightweeks agoajUarstore;;l •• don't know-20_ei__Uy«3ctly." He said his brotherPete worked for a farmer nine milesnorth of the city, which is not so. Peteis employed at the Windsor hotel.

WORKING THE FAIR.

Several Cases of Pocket-PickingReported From the Grounds.

The pickpockets have struck a richharvest at the Fair grounds, and aredoing their work boldly. They wereamong the crowds in large numbers yes-terday and the day before, and chosetheir victims not only from the farmersbut among their better informedcity brethren. Anybody who hada pocketbook or a watch ineasy reach was a "mark," anda good many suffered. Seven cases ofpocket-picking yvere 'reported to theauthorities on Wednesday, and a largernumber yesterday. Among the loserswere a Mr. Burkhardt, of St. Paul, wholost a valuable gold watch, and John L.Merriam. a brother of W. R. Merriam,president of the agricultural associa-tion, who yvas relieved of $65 in green-backs. The largest loss was that of arich stockman from Willmar, Minn.,who was robbed 'of a pocket-bookcontaining $600 in clean money. Noneof the light-fingered gentry has falleninto the hands of the authorities thusfan - __,

THEY COME UP TO SEE US.Visitors in Large -.Numbers Are

Coining Up to-Visit the Globe.Fully 1,000 visitors from all parts of

the North.vest, who have a friendlyfeeling for the Globe, accepted the in-vitation to visit the Globe building andinspect the various' departments yester-day. The elevators were kept slidingfrom top to bottom ofthe tall home ofthe Globe' at a livelyrate from morn-ing until night, and it was almost mid-night before the guests had ceasedcoming. Many ladies, in fact they. werein the majority, came up to see how thepaper' is made and catch a glimpse ofSt.Paul from the tall tower. Therewas a knot ofsight-seers"ln the incis-ure under the tower "about all day, andif the complimentary remarks madeconcerning the city's appearance couldbe collected in book form, the aggregatewould make a valuable document forcirculation by real estate dealers.

All .who came up to see the Globewere no less profuse in their compli-ments of the Globe itself than of itsquarters, and - expressions were to beheard from a hundred men well knownin the state, on the remarkablegrowth the paper has had . within thememory of any child big enough to walkup the steps of the tower.! Of courseauch remarks were pleasant to hear byall who were in*hearing distance. -Strangers whohave not been up to see.the Globe are welcome, and this 'doesnot shut out any who have been here'before and desire to make a second orthird visit. , To be sure, the receptioncommittee has on its \u25a0 working clothesthis week, and spike-tail coals need notbe expected. But ifany one cares to seewhat ifacilities; the greatest paper thisside of Chicago has for getting itself inshape to Ibe read every morning, whythe latch-string of the \u25a0\u25a0 Globe will notbe taken in for some time yet, and the©levators run from. early morning until~ 7/ ;v'- -'.:•\u25a0 "' \u25a0:':' •' 7 ... •' -

Under instructionsfrom division headquarters Gen. Ruger,department commander, telegraphedthe commanding officer at Fort Randallto communicate yvith the agentand take necessary action to pre-vent trouble and enforce the laws.To this the following reply was receivedby the department commander: Thattwo companies, four officers and sixty-four - enlisted men, had been sent toagency under Capt. A. R. Brinkerhoff.While expecting nothing serious it hadbeen deemed advisable to send a forcesufficient to overawe, rather than invite,opposition, The trouble was due to mis-management and consisted in threats ofviolence in case the surveys are con-tinued. The surveying party was in- "

timidated and driven in. An inspectoron the ground reports that two-thirds ofthese. Indians desire allotments and thatthe thirty obstructionists belong to thenon-progressive element. To his letterof request to the secretary ofwar.
