CHAPTER XXX.
EVENTS OF THE YEAR 1859.
MURDER OF MRS. LALIYER-G. L. LUMSDEN CONVICTED OF MAIL ROBBERY -- THE BILANSKI MURDER CASE -- WRIGHT COUNTY WAR-SKETCH OF BISHOP GRACE -- DEATH OF DOCTOR BORUP.
O session of the Legislature was held this winter. Mem- bers had been elected, but the session was not called to- gether by the Governor, it having been left for him to decide whether it was necessary or not.
CRIME.
During January, a man, named LAWRENCE LALIYER, Was arrested at Prairie du Chien, on charge of having murdered . · his wife, in Mounds View township, in 1856. Her remains were found buried under an old ice house. LALIYER Was tried for murder in the first degree twice, and, on the second hearing, convicted of murder in the second degree, and sen- tenced to a short term in the penitentiary.
On February 12, GEO. L. LUMSDEN, a clerk in the Saint . Paul post-office, was arrested on charge of stealing a land warrant out of the mail, and selling it to HENRY McKENTY. He was convicted, and soon after sentenced to ten years' im- prisonment in the State's prison. LUMSDEN was pardoned, in 1864, on condition that he would enlist in the army, which he did, and, in a few days afterwards, was killed at the battle of Nashville.
On March II, STANISLAUS BILANSKI, a Polander by birth, of whom some account is given on page 121, died at his resi- dence on the Stillwater road. He was married at the time to a woman whose name had been ANNIE EVARDS, formerly of Fayetteville, North Carolina, with whom he had had but little previous acquaintance, and of whose past life, what was

known, was not creditable. BILANSKI's last illness was short, and his symptoms thought suspicious by several persons who visited him. After his burial, a girl, who had been employed in the family during BILANSKI's illness, reported that she had purchased arsenic at Mrs. B.'s request, and mentioned other circumstances fully sufficient to warrant the belief that BILAN- SKI was the victim of a design to murder him on the part of his wife. Mrs. BILANSKI was at once arrested, and the body of B. being exhumed, the stomach was subjected to analysis. This was made by Dr. WM. H. MORTON, and revealed strong and unmistakable proofs of arsenic, and, on May 15. Mrs. BI- LANSKI was indicted for murder in the first degree. On her trial she was ably defended, but, on June 3d, was found guilty. On December 9, she was sentenced to be hung, and March 23d was fixed by the Governor as the date.
" THE WRIGHT COUNTY WAR."
Many of the readers of this book may have heard of the Wright County War, but do not know to what it refers. In the fall of 1858, one H. A. WALLACE was murdered in Wright county, and a neighbor, named OSCAR F. JACKSON, was tried for the offense, in the spring of 1859, but acquitted by the jury. On April 25, a crowd of men assembled, and hung JACKSON to the gable end of WALLACE's cabin. It was a most wicked and inexcusable outrage. Governor SIBLEY offered a reward for the conviction of any of the lynchers. Not long afterwards, one EMERY MOORE was arrested on the charge of aiding in the affair, and taken to Wright county for trial, but was rescued by a mob. Governor SIBLEY at once decided to take vigorous measures to maintain the majesty of the law. A military force was called out, and three compa- nies dispatched (August 5) to Monticello, to arrest the rioters and reinforce the law. The Pioneer Guard headed the col- umn, which was in command of Colonel JOHN S. PRINCE. A few special officers and detectives accompanied the force. The military proceeded to Monticello, reinforced the civil authorities, arrested eleven lynchers and rescuers, and turned them over to the Wright county officers. Having subdued

On July 1, Col. WILBUR M. HAYWARD, a lawyer of Saint Paul, died at Taylor's Falls.
On July 6, Dr. CHARLES W. BORUP, one of the first and most prominent bankers of the city, of the firm of BORUP & OAKES, died suddenly. He was a native of Denmark, came to America when young, and was engaged in the fur trade on Lake Superior for many years. He came to Saint Paul in 1849, and had been, since that date, one of the most influen- tial and wealthiest citizens.
During August, the hearts of our Catholic population were gladdened by the arrival of Rt. Rev. THOMAS L. GRACE, * who
* Rt. Rev. THOMAS L. GRACE was born in Charleston, South Carolina, November 15, 1814. He commenced his studies, preparatory to the priesthood, under Bishop FEN- WICK, in the Seminary of Cincinnati, in 1828. A year later, he went to the Dominican Convent of Saint Rose, Kentucky, where he became a member of the Dominican order, continuing there his studies until 1837. In that year he went to Rome, and studied at the Minerva until 1844. He was ordained priest in Rome, December 21, 1839. On his return to America, in 1844, he was for two years engaged in the ministry in Kentucky, and for 13 years in Memphis, Tennessee. While in Memphis, he built the very fine church of Saints Peter and Paul, the Convent of Saint Agnes, Orphan Asylum, &c. On July 24, 1859, he was consecrated Bishop of Saint Paul, and arrived here shortly after. He has had great success in his zealous labors in this city and State, increasing the church greatly, procuring large additions to the clergy, opening schools, establishing charitable institutions, and multiplying churches. He is warmly beloved by his large congregation, and respected by other sects, for his learning, piety, amiable character and benevolence. He is regarded as one of the ablest prelates in America.

had recently been ordained Bishop of the diocese of Saint Paul.
The State election took place on October II. WM. SPRIGG HALL, C. N. MACKUBIN and Dr. J. H. STEWART were elected Senators ; and GEO. MITSCH, OSCAR STEPHENSON, J. B. OLIVIER, D. A. ROBERTSON, JOHN B. SANBORN and HENRY ACKER, Representatives ; A. W. TULLIS, Sheriff; SHER- WOOD HOUGH, Register ; I. V. D. HEARD,* County Attor- ney ; R. A. SMITH, Treasurer ; J. F. HOYT, Probate Judge.
On December 5, a fire destroyed several frame buildings on the north side of Third street, where McCargar's Block now stands, and thence to the corner above.
On December 14, the two organs of the party, the Minne- sotian and the Times, were united into one journal, and the joint proprietors, "NEWSON, MOORE, FOSTER & Co.," were elected State printers. This firm was not a happy family, and the union was soon dissolved.
The year 1859, closed with somewhat better prospects financially. The harvest had been abundant, and somewhat enlivened business. The people of the State were confident that the panic had spent its force, and that matters were now on the mend. For the first time this fall, grain had been ex- ported from the State, and the people began to get on a foundation of real prosperity.
* ISAAC V. D. HEARD was born at Goshen, New York, August 31, 1834. He came to Saint Paul in May, 1852, when 18 years of age, studied law, and was admitted to practice. He was elected City Attorney in 1856, and again in 1865, 1866 and 1867. He was appointed County Attorney in 1857, elected the same fall for two years, and re-elected in 1859 and 1861, serving over six years. He was elected State Senator from Ramsey county, in 1871. Mr. HEARD volunteered, during the Sioux War, in an independent cavalry company; was Judge Advocate during the trial of the 303 Indian murderers the same fall, and afterwards wrote a valuable work on the Sioux War.

CHAPTER XXXI.
EVENTS OF THE YEAR 1860.
SUPPOSED UXORICIDE - DESTRUCTIVE FIRES -EXECUTION OF MRS. BILANSKI- PRICES, BUSINESS, &C .- THE DOUGLAS AND LINCOLN CAMPAIGN-SUICIDE OF WM. C. GRAY.
O N January 26, the wife of a shoemaker, named WM. O'NEILL, was found dead in their hovel, in the swamp, . near the corner of Seventh and Cedar streets. It was uncer- tain whether she had died by accident, or her husband mur- dered her in a drunken fit. He was tried for it, at any rate, and sentenced to Stillwater for five years.
February 25, THEODORE FRENCH, a leading lawyer of the city, died.
On March 16, most of the buildings on both sides of Third street, from Robert to Jackson, were destroyed by fire. It commenced in the clothing store of a well-known character, named ISAAC ANSELL. Some 25 or 30 business houses were broken up by this calamity.
These fires, of which there were several very destructive ones, from 1857 to 1861, always produced great discourage- ment. But from the ashes of despair ever grew the plant of new hope and courage. The fires really did good. Most of the buildings destroyed were old shells, and in their places fine and valuable blocks were built. Old settlers have seen Third street swept by flames nearly from one end to the other, and rebuilt again.
On March 22, the appointment of W. M. CORCORAN, a lawyer and real estate dealer, as postmaster, was announced. He held the office about a year. He resides now in Maryland.
THE EXECUTION OF MRS. BILANSKI.
A strong effort was made by a few members of the Legis-

and of the County of Ramsey, Minnesota. 393
lature, opposed to capital punishment, to commute the death- sentence of Mrs. BILANSKI, to imprisonment for life. A bill to accomplish this was passed early in March, but Governor RAMSEY promptly vetoed it, on the grounds of unconstitu- tionality, and that it was a case not calling for any show of clemency .. The law, therefore, took its course.
The execution of the unfortunate woman took place at ten o'clock, on March 23d. The scaffold was erected in the en- closed yard adjoining the jail, and alongside the old hook and ladder house. An immense crowd, several thousand in num- ber, were present. The Pioneer Guards, with loaded muskets and fixed bayonets, were placed in line in front of the jail, to preserve order. Mrs. BILANSKI, who had spent the whole morning in devotional exercises, with Father CAILLET and another clergyman, walked with a firm step to the gallows, cheerfully bidding her acquaintances good-bye. Before the fatal noose was adjusted, she spoke a few words, to the effect that she had not had justice in her trial, and conveying the impression that she was innocent. She then kissed the cruci- fix, the black cap was put on, and the noose adjusted. The bolt was then drawn, and the body fell. After hanging a short time, it was taken down and buried in the Catholic cemetery.

It supplied a great want in the matter of a public hall for meetings, &c. It was used for some 14 years for that purpose, and, a few months ago, converted into offices.
PRICES-BUSINESS-IMMIGRATION.
Some improvement in business, &c., was noticeable during this spring, and immigration commenced. Much of the splendid wholesale trade of our city dates from this time, and was one of the good results of the commercial revulsion. Country dealers, unable to buy large stocks east, on long credit, as formerly, could purchase small lots in Saint Paul for cash, and many of our merchants thus had a wholesale trade thrust on them, without seeking it, which has grown into huge pro- portions, and now employs an immense capital. Thus, out of the nettle disaster, we plucked the flower prosperity.
Prices had, about this date, touched their lowest ebb. Pro- duce and provisions, fuel, rents, &c., were so low that even a little money would go a great ways in the " pursuit of happi- ness." The Minnesotian, of June 2, mentions that houses, that in 1856 or 1857 rented for $18 and $20 per month, then only brought $5 and $6. Potatoes were 15 and 18 cents a bushel ; wood, $4 per cord, and other necessaries in propor- tion. Even whisky could be had for 25 cents a gallon. Alas ! that those halcyon days should have fled forever !

On April 7, Rogers'* Block was destroyed by fire.
who not long after removed to Burlington, Vermont, and Mr. INGERSOLL accompanied him to that place, ultimately becoming his partner. In 1837, Mr. INGERSOLL removed to New York, and engaged in trade there, remaining until 1855, when he came to Saint Paul. He established his dry goods house here the following year, which has continued one of the leading establishments of Minnesota since that year. Mr. INGERSOLL was never elected to any position except the School Board, in which he has given valuable labor for education, and is now its President, but has held many honorary appointments, being President of the State Reform School Board of Managers, President of the State Temperance Association, &c., and member of a number of charitable, religious, and similar bodies. He is one of our most faithful and energetic workers in every good cause.
* HIRAM ROGERS was born in Bucks county, Pennsylvania, April 7, 1806. He subse- quently went to Philadelphia, where he was engaged in the manufacture of morocco, &c., which he carried on extensively for some years. In 1836, he removed to Zanesville,

Ohio, where he carried on leather, and boot and shoe manufacturing, for about 20 years. In 1856, he came to Saint Paul, investing a large amount of capital here, and erecting several fine blocks of buildings, &c. He has also, in connection with his son, WM. D. ROGERS, carried on the manufacture of boot-packs, &c., quite extensively, and in other ways added to the trade and prosperity of our city.

This season, Capt. DAVIDSON started a line of packets from Saint Paul to LaCrosse, with three small boats, and thus laid the foundation of his present marine corporation.
The presidential campaign of 1860 was a memorable one. and was hotly contested in Saint Paul. The Republicans had a large club, called the "Wide Awakes," commanded by Capt. WM. H. ACKER,* and the DOUGLAS Democrats had a similar club, called the " Little Giants," commanded by Capt. ALEX. WILKIN. Both were finely drilled.
On August 9, the telegraph from Saint Paul to LaCrosse being completed, the first message was sent, being addressed to Hon. WM. H. SEWARD.
On November 10, WM. C. GRAY, once a prominent broker and real estate dealer, committed suicide, by leaping over the bridge into the river. A sheriff had arrested him for forgery. when GRAY broke away from him, ran to the bridge, and com- mitted the desperate act, in full sight of a number of persons.

* Captain WILLIAM H. ACKER was born in Clyde, Wayne county, New York, December 5, 1833. He was a son of Hon. HENRY ACKER, deceased, who held several important offices in this county at various times. WM. H. spent most of his youth in Michigan, coming to Saint Paul in 1854. He was book-keeper in the banking house of W. R. MARSHALL, for several years. In 1856, he was one of the organizers of the Pioneer Guard, the first military company in Minnesota, and was afterwards its Captain. He was very fond of military exercises, and was a fine drill-master. On March 19, 1860, Governor RAMSEY appionted him Adjutant General of the State, but when the war broke out in 1861, General ACKER resigned, and recruited a company, which became Company C, First Regiment. He was wounded at Bull Run, and afterwards commis- sioned a Captain in the Sixteenth Regulars. He fell at Shiloh, April 6, 1862. His death created profound sorrow in this city, where he was warmly esteemed. His remains now repose in Oakland cemetery.

The year 1860 closed under gloomy circumstances. The disunion cloud was darkening the southern horizon, and the mutterings of war were heard in the distance. Trade was again depressed, currency depreciated, and gloom and fore- bodings rested on all.

T `HE year 1861 was marked in history by the opening of the great struggle between the Northern and Southern States. The disunion movement, which began in the fall of 1860, steadily advanced, and in its course the depression of business, the failure of banks, and gloomy forebodings of trouble. were the results. In Saint Paul this was especially so.

During this month, the appointment of CHARLES NICHOLS, as postmaster, was announced ; also GEO. W. MOORE, Col- lector of the Port; Hon. AARON GOODRICH, Secretary of Legation to Brussels, &c.
On April 13; the telegraph brought the sad news of the fall of Sumter, and the call for 75,000 troops. Great excitement prevailed for some days, and war was the only theme of con- versation. Capt. WM. H. ACKER and Capt. ALEX. WILKIN, at once commenced recruiting companies for the First Minne- sota Regiment, and war meetings were held to encourage en-

In four days, Capt. ACKER's Company (C) was full, and ac- cepted, with the following officers : Captain, WM. H. ACKER ; First Lieutenant, WILSON B. FARRELL ; Second Lieutenant, SAMUEL T. RAGUET. On the 22d, Capt. WILKIN's Company "A," (Pioneer Guard,) was accepted-First Lieutenant. HARRY C. COATES ; Second Lieutenant, H. ZIERENBERG. Ex-Governor GORMAN was commissioned Colonel of the Regi- ment, with Dr. J. H. STEWART as Surgeon, and Rev. E. D. NEILL as Chaplain.

In the meantime a

had been accepted. "The Western Zouaves" was recruited in Saint Paul by Capt. H. H. WESTERN, and became Com- pany D. The Regiment was mustered in on June 26. Among
* Gen. JOHN B. SANBORN was born December 5, 1826, in Merrimac county, New Hampshire. Determining upon the profession of law, after preparatory schooling, he studied three years, and was admitted to practice in July, 1854. In December, of the same year, he removed to Saint Paul, and at once began a successful practice here, in the well-known law firm of early days-" SANBORN, FRENCH & LUND."
In 1859, he was elected a member of the House of Representatives. The next year he was elected to the Senate of 1861. Hardly had his term closed, when the war broke out, and he was appointed Adjutant General of the State. Very heavy labor now de- volved on him, in the organizing, arming and equipping of the four regiments raised that year. When the Fourth Regiment was filled, the command was tendered to him, and he accepted it (December.) He remained in command of Fort Snelling that winter, and early in the spring of 1862, his regiment was sent to Mississippi, when it at once entered the Corinth campaign. Col. SANBORN was placed in command of a demi- brigade, and subsequently of a brigade, afterwards part of the famous 17th army corps. On September 19, at Iuka, he lost 600 out of 2,200 of his men, and, for his gallant con- duct, was promoted to Brigadier General. He was also in the battles of Port Gibson, Raymond, Jackson, Champion Hills, and the assault on Vicksburg. After the surren- der of the latter post, he was assigned to the command of the southwest district of Missouri, where, after the campaign against PRICE, he was, upon recommendation of Gen. ROSECRANS, promoted to Brevet Major General, for "gallant and meritorious services."
After the close of the war, he performed other important duties, civil and military, for some months. In September, 1866, he was appointed one of the special " Peace Com- mission," along with Generals SHERMAN, HARNEY, TERRY, and Senator HENDER- SON, to negotiate treaties with the principal tribes of the central plains. The commission was engaged 18 months on this important labor.
On his return home, he resumed the practice of his profession. In 1872, he again served as a member of the Legislature.
